23 Anthony; and (4) United'States citizen. The City received seven applications and the Mayor

25 The City Council conducted interviews prior to tonight's meeting, and proceeded with a lengthy
26 discussion regarding the choices of candidates. Unfortunately, the Mayor stated,the Council was
27 not able to arrive at a unanimous decision, and thus a nomination process would begin from the
28 slate of prospective candidates.
29 In this respect, Mayor Cavanaugh stated he would entertain nominations at this time.
30 Horst moved to nominate Jerry Faust.
31 Sparks moved to nominate Randy Hodson.
2 After calling for additional nominations and hearing none, Mayor Cavanaugh closed the floor to'

15 VII. COMMUNITY FORUM.
16 Mayor Cavanaugh began by stating that the forum is open to the public and there is a five-minute
17 time limit. He requested that anyone wishing to speak to the Council provide their name and ad-
18 dress and restrict comments to items not on the meeting agenda.
19 Chris Schober, 2902 Crestview Drive, approached the Council and wished to speak about ice
20 skating in the,City. She stated that Silver Point Park has not had skating for three winters. She
21 was informed recently that general skating is planned for next winter, but there were not any pro-
22 visions regarding ice hockey. She was told that the old hockey boards were thrown away and
23 that new boards were too expensive.
24 Ms. Schober went on to specifically designate which parks had general skating, ice hockey facili-
25 ties, or both. She mentioned that had been a discussion about combining general skating and
26 hockey skating on one rink and she advised against this idea.
27 In essence, Ms. Schober asked the Council for priority on the following issues: (1) youth winter
28 activities; (2) snow wall erected at Central Park; (3) a deadline for ordering hockey boards; and
29 (4)a deadline in the fall as to when the boards at Silver Point Park and Central Park would be in-
30 stalled.
31 Mayor Cavanaugh remarked that the Chair of the Parks Commission was in the audience, and he
32 thanked Ms. Schober for her input and interest in the community.

4 idea of hockey boards for the neighborhood rinks.

27 be enforced. In this respect, the Mayor directed the Council's attention to a memo dated January
28 12, 2000 regarding the specific procedures utilized to enforce compliance.
29 The memo stated that the Police Department does not have a formal compliance check policy;
#0 however, City Ordinances and State Statutes are followed. In the case of tobacco compliance,
31 high school teens, usually from the SADD group, are requested to participate. Parental or
32 Guardian permission is received, and the City provides the teens with lunch or a gift certificate

for lunch.
2 The Police Department generally begins compliance checks in the spring of each year and then
3 institutes a follow-up compliance check in late summer or early fall.
4 In regard to liquor checks, a similar procedure would be followed. However, young adults over
5 the age of 18, and less than 21 years of age, are asked to participate. Training is provided and
6 payment is made at$10.00 per hour.
7 Motion by Sparks to approve Ordinance 2000-001, an Ordinance Relating to the Revocation or

I I X1. REPORTS FROM COUNCILMEMBERS.
12 A. Parks Commission - JanuM 10, 2000.
13 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that Carol Jindra, Chair of the Parks Commission, was in attendance
4 and he invited her to address the Council.
15 Ms. Jindra stated that her intention was to provide an update to the Council about current Parks
16 Commission issue. She continued by stating that the Commission has two new members and
17 two new organizational members from the Sports Boosters and the School Board.
18 Additionally, Ms. Jindra was pleased to announce that Water Tower Park has been utilized by all
19 ages since its opening and the Parks Cornmission is satisfied with the outcome. Currently,there
20 is still some play equipment to be installed, in addition to lights on the basketball court and some
21 other minor items, but most issues should be completed by spring.
22 In respect to Silver Point Park, the Parks Commission expects it to officially open in May 2000.,
23 Some issues are yet to be resolved; in particular, lighting, a shelter, and skating.
24 The Parks Commission has made it a point to involve the public in all of the projects and are
25 receptive to residents attending meetings to express views and offer opinions. She stated that if
26 financing is available for requested projects, and the specific park is able to accommodate those
27 projects, they Would be considered.
28 In response to the earlier comments about ice hockey at the parks, Ms. Jindra stated that Public
29 Works Director Jay Hartman has provided a memo to City Manager Mike Morrison regarding the
#30 portable hockey system. Although the issue continues to be researched, Ms. Jindra felt that it is a
3 1 viable option.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
January 25, 2000

1 Additionally, Ms. Jindra stated that Central Park is a serious focus for the Parks Commission.
2 She continued by stating that the Commission is actively working with BRW, the design firm,
3 and that those'architects are now keenly aware of the Commission's goals.
4 Consequently, the Commission is now in a position to request a site survey and is also looking
5 forward to receiving input from the school. The Commission's goal is to complete the Park
6 without asking for additional tax money.
7 In connection with the Village Green project at the St. Anthony Shopping Center, Ms. Jindra
8 stated that appealing new developments have become available for the Parks Commission's in-
9 volvement. Additionally, there are other potentially smaller projects that she would elaborate on
10 at a later date. But all in all, the Parks Commission has a number of projects for the coming year
I I and Ms. Jindra is delighted with the new members on the Commission.
12 City Manager Michael Morrison stated that Ms. Jindra, Public Works Director Jay Hartman, and
13 himself, had a meeting and discussed pages 30-33 of the meeting packet. These pages included a
14 letter from Bob Kost of BRW dated December 21, 1999 which outlined the tasks to be performed
15 for the Central Park improvements. In this respect, Morrison would recommend that the Council
0 6 make a motion to state that the Parks Commission may continue-working with BRW and move
17 forward on the Central Park improvements as depicted in the December 21, 1999 lette r. In other
18 words, the Council needs to approve some budgetary items in order for the Parks Commission to
19 proceed.
20 Horst expressed concern about the total anticipated cost ($81,500) of Tasks I through V as de-
21 picted in the December 21, 1999 letter.
22 Morrison stated that, realistically, Task I and Il would probably be completed this year, and that
23 the Year 2000 would be considered as more of a design phase.
24 Ms. Jindra clarified that the Parks Cominission needs enough funds to order the site sur-vey as a
25 basis for the Commission to continue from a planning stage. The actual figures for Central Park
26 would come at a later time, she stated, but Task I is the first step.
27 Motion by Horst to approve $6,500.00 for Task I pursuant to the letter from Bob Kost, BRW,
28 dated December 21, 1999.
29 Motion carried unanimously.
30 Mayor Cavanaugh thanked Ms. Jindra for her attendance and input to the Council.

2 cussion, as set forth below:

5 aged the Councilmembers to attend. Mayor Cavanaugh and Morrison are attending.

10 11:30 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. as-the date for the luncheon.
11 4. Worksession Discussion. Mornson stated that he had agreed to provide an update to the
12 Council at the second meeting of each month in regard to the necessity of a worksession for the
13 following month. In this respect, he outlined five issues that were reviewed at regular Council
14 meetings this month, and then set forth upcoming issues that have typically been discussed at
P15 worksessions. He requested that the Council review the upcoming issues and determine the ne-
16 cessity for a worksession in February.
17 5. Joint Meetings with the Parks Commission, Planning Commission. Morrison stated that
18 he has tentatively scheduled a joint meeting with the Planning Commission on April 18, 2000.

20 the completion of the site survey for Central Park.
21 6. School Board Joint Meeting. Momson reported that he is in the process of coordinating a
22 date for a joint meeting with the School Board as well as an agenda. He will advise the Council
23 as soon as possible regarding a potential date.
24 7. Hillcrest Development Update. Morrison reminded the Council that Scott Tankenoff,
25 Hillcrest Development, is interesting in purchasing Apache Plaza for redevelopment. Morrison
26 stated that Mr. Tankenoff was at the January 18, 2000 Planning Commission meeting and pre-
27 sented his concept and ideas. Mr. Tankenoff reported a positive dialogue with the Planning
28 Commission, and plans to attend the Council and Planning Commission meetings on a regular
29 basis to provide updates. Mornson believed Mr. Tankenoff to be serious in his pursuit of Apache
30 Plaza and stated that Mr. Tankenoff has hired a land use attorney and a tax increment consultant.
31 Additionally, City Staff will be meeting with Mr. Tankenoff to review the work plan.
32 8. Fire Chief Update. The City's Fire Chief is retiring in March, and the City has posted the
33 job opening and closed applications as of January 20, 2000. Interviews will be.occurring in Feb-
34 ruary and it is the City's hope that a new Fire Chief will be hired by the end of February. In this
I
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes

Page 7
I respect, Mornson will ask the new Fire Chief to attend a Council meeting for introductions.
2 9. Middle Mississippi Update. Morrison reported that Amy Sparks is the Council's repre-
3 sentative to Middle Mississippi. He stated that there were Bylaw changes this summer and that
4 he will be proposing that those changes be placed on the February 8, 2000 agenda.
5 10. Letter from Bill Soth. Mornson stated that he had received a letter from City Attorney
6 Bill Soth regarding a license agreement with Hobie Swan. By way of background, Mornson
7 stated that Hobie Swan was the owner of a mobile home park, and the park was sold, but the
8 fence was on a public right of way. The owner fteeded an easement from the City and as a result,
9 the license agreement was drafted.
10 City Attorney Bill Soth stated that it was important to understand that the agreement is not an
I I easement agreement, but a license agreement, which means it is temporary.
12 Furthennore, Morrison stated that there was an error on approximately 200 of the City's utility
13 accounts this past quarter. He requested that if the Councilmembers receive any telephone calls
14 regarding this matter, to refer the calls to City Hall. Apparently, Mornson stated,there was a
0 5 computer problem that was date sensitive and the City has offered to make an immediate adjust-,
16 ment to the affected residents, or to provide a credit for next quarter.
17 XII. REPORTS FROM COUNCILMEMBERS.
18 Sparks reported that she had met with the Staff from the Middle Mississippi Watershed
19 Management Organization. She stated that the goal of the organization is the management of
20 water, water quality, and correcting and controlling flooding. Although the organization is fairly
21 young, the intent is to work cooperatively doing integrated flood planning. Additionally, the or-
22 ganization plans on working with an expert from the University on certain issues. Sparks men-
23 tioned that there is another meeting in March and she thought it would be helpful for the Council
24 to hear a report from the organization in terms of cooperative agreements with Minneapolis.
25 Thuesen reported that, next week, he is planning on attending a workshop learning how to con
26 duct campaigns recognizing certain adults as outstanding role models. He will be reporting to
27 the Council in the near future on the results of that workshop.
28 Sparks also reported that the St. Anthony/New Brighton Community Prevention Coalition is
29 having a meeting Monday, January 31, 2000, and is open to the community. The discussion will
30 focus on a mission and the goals over the next few years. The meeting will be in the High
31 School cafeteria.

V3 3 Community Prevention Coalition as well. He would invite and encourage involvement from the
34 City Council.

1 Horst reported that he had been invited to attend a luncheon mee ting with the Coalition for
2 Smoking Prevention. The focus was on efforts to curb youth smoking and the uses of the to- '
bacco settlement money. Horst felt the meeting was interesting and informative.
4 Mayor Cavanaugh reported that he had attended a retreat for ACTION (Adults and Children
5 Together in our Neighborhood). The organization facilitates asset building in our youth, and he
6 felt the information presented was beneficial.
7 Cavanaugh reported that the Metropolitan Transit is in the process of redefining their routes. In
8 that process, Bus No. 25 will be eliminated fron�the Shopping Center to 33rd. The route will
9 combine No. 25 with No. I over on Stinson. The route will proceed up Stinson to 33rd, then go
10 33rd to Silver Lake, and then Silver Lake to Apache. The other part is that the MTC is
I I increasing-the service on Lowry Avenue, so that the service that runs from Roseville and comes
12 into the Village and proceeds on Kenzie and to Lowry is designed to get southend passengers
13 onto the Lowry bus to transfer at Stinson.
14 Cavanaugh reported that there is a public hearing scheduled for February 8, 2000 from 12:00 -
15 1:00 p.m. at the downtown public library, with the proposed changes taking effect in September
6 2000. Morrison offered that residents in the Past have testified at MTC hearings.
17 Sparks inquired if there was an appeal process. Cavanaugh stated that the City could write a let-
18 ter and request a meeting with the MTC to discuss numbers and discuss the possibility of re-es-
19 tablishing service.
20 In the interim, Cavanaugh suggested that City Manager Mike Morrison contact the MTC by
21 writing a letter expressing our concerns.
22 On a different issue, Cavanaugh reported that he had been given a brochure for the Minneapolis
23 Mediation Program. A resident who was upset with a neighbor previously had contacted him,
24 and he was pleased that he could refer the resident to that organization for mediation.
25 Morrison clarified that he is aware of the service and that, typically, cities retain the services of
26 such an organization and then provide that benefit to the residents.
27 XIII. INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of St. Anthony
3301 Silver Lake Road
St. Anthony, Minnesota 55418
I am pleased to confirm our understanding of the services to be provided the City
of St. Anthony, Minnesota for the year ended December 31 , 1999. 1 will audit the
general purpose financial statements of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota as of
and for the Year ended December 31 , 1999. Also, the financial report 'submitted to
you will include combining statements by fund type, individual fund and account
group statements that will be subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the
audit of the general purpose financial statements.
AUDIT OBJECTIVES
The objective of the audit is the expression of an opinion as to whether the general
purpose financial statements are fairly presented, in all material �respects, in con-
formity with generally accepted accounting principles and to report on the fairness
of the additional information referred to in the first paragraph when considered in
relation to the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole. The audit
will be conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the
standards for financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued
by the Comptroller General of the United States, and will include tests of the
accounting records of the City of St; Anthony, Minnesota and other procedures con-
sidered necessary to enable me to express such an opinion. If the opinion on the
general purpose financial statements is other than unqualified, I will fully discuss
the reasons with you before submitting a different kind of report. If, for any rea-
son, I am unable to complete the audit or am unable to form or have not formed an
opinion, I may decline to express an opinion or to issue a report as a result of
this engagement.
MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES
The management of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota is responsible for establishing
and maintaining internal control and for compliance with laws, regulations, con-
tracts, and agreements. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments
by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of
the controls. The objectives of internal control are to provide management with
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss
from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in accordance
with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of
the general purpose financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting- principles.
32
Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of St. Anthony
Management is responsible for making all financial records and related information
available. I understand that you will provide the basic information required for
the audit and that you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of that
information. I will advise you about appropriate accounting principles and their
application and will assist in the preparation of your financial statements, but
the responsibility for the financial statements remains with you. This responsi-
bility includes the establishment and maintenance of adequate records and effective
internal control over financial reporting, the selection and application of account-
ing principles, and the safeguarding of assets.
AUDIT PROCEDURES - GENERAL
An audit includes examining, on a test bas1s, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements; therefore, the audit will involve judgment
about the number of transactions to be examined and the areas to be tested. I will
plan and. perform the aud"it to obtain reasonable rather than absolute as'surance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether caused
by error or fraud. Because of the concept of reasonable assurance and because I
will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk tha t
a material misstatement may exist and not be detected. In addition, an audit is
not designed to detect errors, fraud, or other illegal acts that are immaterial to
the general purpose financial statements. However, I will inform you of any mate-
rial errors and any fraud that comes to my attention. I will also- inform you of
any other illegal acts that come to my attention, unless clearly inconsequential. -
My responsiblity as auditor is limited to the period covered by the audit and does
not extend to matters that might arise during any later periods for which I am not
engaged as auditor.
Audit procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the trans-
actions recorded in the accounts, direct confirmation of cash, receivables and
certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected financial
institutions, creditors and others, and may include tests of the physical exis-
tence of inventories. I will request written representations from your attorney(s)
as part of the engagement, and they may bill you for responding to this inquiry.
At the conclusion of the audit, I will also request certain written representa-
tions from you about the financial statements and related matters.
Identifying and ensuring that the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota complies with
laws, regulations, contracts, and agreements is the responsibility of management.
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose finan-
cial statements are free of material misstatement, I will perform tests of the
City's compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of con-
tracts and agreements. However, the objective of the audit will not be to provide
an opinion on overall comnpliance and I will not express such an opinion.
AUDIT PROCEDURES - INTERNAL CONTROL
In planning and performing the audit, I will consider the internal control suffi-
cient to plan the audit in order to determine the nature, timing, and extent of the
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing my opinion on the City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota's general 'purpose financial statements.
33
Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of St. Anthony
I will obtain an understanding of the design of the relevant controls and whether
they have been placed in operation, and I will assess control risk. Tests of
controls may be performed, to test the effectiveness of certain. controls that I
consider relevant to preventing and detecting errors and fraud that are material
to the general purpose financial statements and to preventing and detecting mis-
statements resulting from illegal acts and other noncompliance matters that have
a direct and material effect on the general purpose financial statements. Tests,
if performed, will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion
on internal control and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed.
An audit is not specially designed to provide assurance on internal control or to
identify reportable conditions. However, I will inform the governing body of any
matters involving internal control and itsoperation that I consider to be report-
able conditions under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to my attention
relating- to significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the.-.'internal con-
trol that, in my judgment, could adversely affect the entity's ability to record,
process, summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of
management in the general purpose financial statements.
AUDIT ADMINISTRATION AND OTHER
I understand that your personnel will prepare all cash and other confirmations I
request and will locate any invoices selected for testing.
Workpapers for this engagement are the property of Stuart J. Bonniwell , C.P.A. ,
and constitute confidential information. However, I may be requested to make cer-
tain workpapers available to various cognizant or grantor agencies pursuant to
authority given to them by law or regulation. If requested, access to such work-
papers will be provided under my supervision. Furthermore, upon request, I may
provide photocopies of selected workpapers to these agencies. These agencies may
intend, or decide to distribute the photocopies or information contained therein
to others, including other governmental agencies.
Fees for services are based on the time required to complete the engagement, plus
out-of-pocket expenses such as report production, typing, etc. Professional rates
vary according to the degree of responsibi,lity involved and -the level of expertise
and experience of personnel assigned to the audit. In addition, fees are based on
anticipated cooperation from your personnel and the assumption that unexpected cir-
cumstances will not be encountered during the audit which would cause a material
extension of time required to complete the audit. If significant additional time
is necessary, you will be consulted with before commencing such additional work.
I appreciate the opportunity to be of service to the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota
and believe this letter accurately summarizes the significant terms of our engage-
ment. If you have any questions, please contact me. If the agree with the terms
of our engagement as described in this letter, please sign the original letter in
the space provided and return it to me. The enclosed copy is for your records.
Sincerely,

unqualified, I will fully discuss the reasons with you before submitting a different
kind of report. If, for any reason, I am unable to complete the audit or am Unable
to form or have not formed an opinion, I may decline to express an opinion or to
issue a report as a result of this engagement.
MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIES
The management of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of- St. Anthony, Minnesota
is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control and for compliance
with laws, regulations, contracts, and agreements. In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits
and related costs of the controls. The objectives of internal control are to p,ro-
vide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safe-
guarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are,
executed in accordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to
permit the preparation of the general purpose financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles.
36
Chairman and Commissioners
Housing and Redevelopment Authority of St. Anthony
Management is responsible for making all financial records and related information
available. I understand that you will provide the basic information required for
the audit and that you are responsible for the accuracy and complete'ness of that
information. I will advise you, about appropriate accounting principles and their
application and will assist in the preparation of your financial statements, but
the responsibility for the financial statements remains with you. This responsi-
bility includes the establishment and maintenance of adequate records and effective
internal control over financial reporting, the selection and application of account-
ing principles, and the safeguarding of assets.
AUDIT PROCEDURES - GENERAL
An audit includes examining, on a test bas�s, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements; therefore, the audit will involve judgment
about the number of transactions to be examined and the areas to be tested. I will
plan and perform the aud-it to obtain reasonable rather than absolute assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether caused
by error or fraud. Because of the concept of reasonable assurance and because I
will not perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that
a material misstatement may exist and not be detected. In addition, an audit is
not designed to detect errors, fraud, or other illegal acts that are immaterial to
the general purpose financial statements. However, I will inform you of any mate-
rial errors and any fraud that comes to my attention. I will also inform you of
any other illegal acts that come to my attention, unless clearly inconsequential..
My responsiblity as auditor is limited to the period covered by the audit and does
not extend to matters that might arise during any later periods for which I am not
engaged as auditor.
Audit procedures will include tests of documentary evidence supporting the trans-
actions recorded in the accounts and direct confirmation of cash, receivables and
certain other assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected financial
institutions, creditors and others. I will request written representations from
your attorney(s) as part of the engagement, and they may bill you for responding
to this inquiry. - At the conclusion of the audit, I will also request certain writ-
ten representations from you about the financial statements and related matters.
Identifying and ensuring that the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of St. Anthony,
Minnesota complies with laws, regulations, contracts, and agreements is the respon-
sibility of management. As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the
general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement, I will per-
form tests of the Authority's compliance with applicable laws and regulations and
the provisions of contracts and agreements. However, the objective of the audit
will not be to provide an opinion on overall comnpliance and I will not express
such an opinion.
AUDIT PROCEDURES - INTERNAL CONTROL
In planning and performing the audit, I will consider the internal control suffi-
cient to plan the audit in order to determine the nature, timing, and extent of the
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing my opinion on the Housing and
Redevelopment Authority of St. Anthony, Minnesota's general purpose financial
statements.
37
Chairman and Commissioners
Housing and Redevelopment Authority of St. Anthony
I will obtain an understanding of the design of the relevant controls and whether
they have been placed in operation, and I will assess control risk. Tests of
controls may be performed to test the effectiveness of certain controls that I .
consider relevant to preventing and detecting errors and fraud that are material
to the general purpose financial statements and to preventing and detecting mis-
statements resulting from illegal acts and other noncompliance matters that have
a direct and material effect on the general purpose financial statements. Tests,
if performed, will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion
on internal control and, accordingly, no opinion will be expressed.
An audit is not specially designed to provide assurance on internal control or to
identify reportable conditions. However, I will inform the governing body of any
matters involving internal control and its "operation that I consider to be report-
able conditions under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to my attention
relating to significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the internal con-
trol that, in my judgment, could adversely affect the entity's ability to record,
process, summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of
management in the general purpose financial statements.
AUDIT ADMINISTRATION AND OTHER
I understand that your personnel will prepare all cash and other confirmations I
request and.will locate any invoices selected for testing.
Workpapers for this engagement are the property of Stuart J. Bonniwell , C.P.A. ,
and constitute confidential information. However, I may be requested to make cer-
tain workpapers available to various cognizant or grantor agencies pursuant to
authority given to them by law or regulation. If requested, access to such work-
papers will be provided under my supervision. Furthermore, upon request, I may
provide photocopies of se,lected workpapers to these agencies. These agencies may
intend, or decide to distribute the photocopies or information contained therein
to others, including other governmental agencies.
Fees for services are based on the time required to complete the engagement, plus
out-of-pocket expenses such as report production, typing, etc. Professional rates
vary according to the degree of responsibility involved and the level of expertise
and experience of ,personnel assigned to the .audit. In addition, fees are based on
anticipated cooperation from your personnel and the assumption that unexpected ci,r-
cumstances will not be encountered during the audit which would cause a material
extension of time required to complete the audit. If significant additional time
is necessary, you will be consulted with before commencing such additional work.
I appreciate the opportunity to be of service to the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority of St. Anthony, Minnesota and believe this letter accurately summarizes
the significant terms of our enggaement. If you have any questions, please contact
me. If you agree with the terms of our engagement as described in this letter,
please sign the original letter in the space provided and return it to me. The

MEMO
DATE: January 12, 2000
TO: Mike Morrison, City Manager
FROM: Dick Engstrom, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Tobacco and Liquor Compliance Checks
The Police Department has no formal compliance check policy. We go by the City
Ordinances and State Statutes. In the case of tobacco compliance, we utilize high school
teens, usually from the SADD group. We do not pay them for their time, however, we do
provide a lunch, or gift certificate for lunch. We also get parental or guardian permission
to use juveniles.
We generally start out in the spring of the year, (April or May) with the first checks, and
a follow up in late summer or early fall.
We train the checkers, and they are accompanied by an officer in plain clothes who
witnesses the checks.
In regard to liquor checks, we would be doing the same thing only using young adults
over the age 18, and less than 21 years of age. We would provide training, and pay them
10.00 per hour, which has been the rule in most cities doing alcohol checks.

hearing shall be held to determine what progress has been
made toward opening or reopening the establishment and,
if satisfactory progress is not demonstrated, the Council
may revoke the license.
3. Presumptive Civil Penalties.
L Purpose. The purpose of this Section is to establish a
standard by which the City Council determines the length
of license suspensions and the propriety of revocations,
and shall apply to all premises licensed under this
Chapter. These penalties are presumed to be appropriate
for every case; however, the Council may deviate in an
individual case where the Council finds that there exist
substantial reasons making it more appropriate to deviate,
such as, but not limited to, a licensee's efforts in
combination with the State or City to prevent the sale of
alcohol to minors. When deviating from these standards,
the Council will provide written findings that support the
penalty selected.
ii. Presumptive Penalties for Violations. The minimum
penalties for convictions or violations must be presumed
as follows (unless specified, numbers below indicate
consecutive days' suspensions):

appearance.

before the Council, the Court must act upon all of the
violations that have been alleged in the notice sent to the
licensee. The Council in that case must consider the
presumptive penalty for each violation under the first
44
Ordinance 2000-001
Page 5
appearance column in ii. above. The occurrence of
multiple violations is grounds for deviation from the
presumed penalties in the Council's discretion.
iv. Subsequent Violations. Violations occurring after the
notice of hearing has been mailed, but prior to the
hearing, must be treated as a separate violation and dealt
with as a second appearance before the Council, unless the
City Manager and licensee agree in writing to add the
violation to the first appearance. The same procedure
applies to a second, third or fourth appearance before the
Council.
V. Subsequent Appearances. Upon a second, third or fourth
appearance before the Council by the same licensee, the
Council must impose the presumptive penalty for—the
violation or violations giving rise to the subsequent
appearance without regard to the particular violation or
violations that were the subject of the first or prior
appearance. However, the Council may consider the
amount of time elapsed between appearances as-a basis for
deviating from the presumptive penalty imposed by this
Section.
vi. Computation of Appearances. After the first appearance, a
subsequent appearance by the same licensee will be
determined as follows:
aa. If the first appearance was within 18 months of the
current violation, the current violation will be
treated as a second appearance.
bb. If a licensee has appeared before the Council on 2
previou s occasions, and the current violation
occurred within 30 months of the first appearance,
the current violation will be treated as a third
appearance.
cc. If a licensee has appeared before the Council on 3
previous occasions, and the current violation
occurred within 42 months of the first appearance,
the current violation will be treated as a fourth
appearance.
dd. Any appearance not covered by aa, bb, or cc above
will be treated as a first appearance.

foregoing sanctions, or take any other action in accordance with
