7
8 A. Presentation of Concept Plan for Northwest Quadrant. John Shardlow, DSU, Inc. will be
9 rp esent.
10 John Shardlow explained that he would review where they are on the project, the process that has
11 taken place up to this point, and, finally, the current Concept Plan. He added that he would then
12 like to hear from the Council and see how they are feeling about the process, as well as explain
13 how his company is anticipating closing out the project.
14
15 Mr. Shardlow reviewed the objectives of the project, and the four phases of the project. He
16 indicated that the phase that they are entering into right now is the fourth, and final, phase:
17 Preparation of Redevelopment Master Plan.
18
19 Mr. Shardlow reviewed the other companies that are working on this project, and their respective
20 roles and objectives.
•21
22 Mr. Shardlow took the opportunity to thank the Council for the excellent Steering Committee
23 with whom he has been working so closely. He identified them as a first-rate group of people
24 who represent a broad cross-section of interests in the community, who have been a pleasure to
25 work with and have done an excellent job for the community.
26
27 Mr. Shardlow continued by reviewing the role of the Steering Committee, as well as the
28 Northwest Quadrant Planning Study Meeting Schedule.
29
30 Mr. Shardlow reviewed some of the analysis of the project that included the land use,the
31 ownership of the land, and the physical features on the site. He continued that they examined the
32 potential development of land and how it relates to the regional transportation context.
33
34 Mr. Shardlow stated that the site has good local access, but no freeway access, nor exposure. He
35 indicated that his company examined the relationship between the property and surrounding
36 roadways and identified those locations where access could be gained into the property.
37
38 Mr Shardlow indicated that this project is an opportunity site identified by the Metropolitan
39 Council as part of "Smart Growth Twin Cities". He continued that a clear opportunity in that
40 effort is to work closely with the development and redevelopment of the land with the
41 Metropolitan Transit.
42
•43 Mr. Shardlow reviewed the environmental issues with the Silver Lake Water Quality. He
44 indicated that the water quality is improved, but still poor. He reviewed the recommendations
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
Apri 124, 2001
Page 3
1 made to improve the water quality which include the implementation of best management
2 practices, and identifying additional ponding locations.
3
4 Mr. Shardlow reviewed the Market Study Demand Summary that.revealed a very strong demand_
5 for housing:
6 1. Demand for 50-60 high-amenity single-family homes.
7 2. Demand for 250-310.units of for-sale town-homes.
8 3. Demand for 290-355 units of apartments.
9 4. Demand for 230-289 units of senior housing.
10
11 He continued that the office demand was for 146,000-245,000 square feet, and the retail demand
12 was for the redeveloping of the existing retail to a total of about 75,000 square feet.
13
14 Mr. Shardlow reviewed the Community Issues Forum Analysis Summary. The summary
15 included the strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats of the project as perceived by the
16 community.
17
18 Mr. Shardlow took the above information and comprised a more detailed Urban Design Analysis
19 of the property. The findings of this analysis were that the site has little curb-appeal, poor visual
20 access, poor interior visibility, and convoluted internal circulation..
01
22 Mr. Shardlow indicated that there are a few things that certainly need to happen with this site.
23 He stated that one thing that needs to occur is a new front door to the site, and a reestablishment
24 of some kind of form to this site. He cited an opportunity to do that with a major interior spine
25 road that would carry a parkway character.
26
27 Mr. Shardlow reviewed a range of alternatives to see what could physically fit on the site. The
28 common elements that they all have are the center roadway, and a strong sense of arrival.
29
30 Mr. Shardlow identified the Concept Plan that best meets the financial criteria and has the
31 characteristics that they have determined are important.
32
33 Mr:Shardlow reviewed the proposed future meeting schedule with the Council. He concluded
34 his presentation by distributing a handout containing the meeting Schedule and the
35 Communications Plan.
36
37 Mr. Shardlow stated that they are not yet in the position to request funding for the project. He
38 believes they will be in a much better position to request funding when they have a plan that has
39 some community support, and a clear handle on project costs including acquisition, cleanup and
40 improvement costs.
41
42 Mr. Shardlow explained that they are currently in the process of phasing. He added that,
�3 wherever this project goes, he is aware that there has to be a.developer, or team of developers
44 involved in this process. Thus, he believes there exists some risk in being too detailed in how
45 they finalize the product.

2 Councilmember Thuesen stated that, from early on, housing has been the main focus of this
.3 project.-He questioned why there has not.been more of a.focus on industrial. Mr. Shardlow.
4 stated that every developer indicated that housing was the key-to the success of this site. He
5 continued that the site does not have community-scale shopping center potential, and that light
6 industrial uses do not pay enough in order to make this project work.
7
8 Councilmember Thuesen asked about funding for the project. Mr. Shardlow said that the project
9 was unable to carry the cost of subsidizing housing cost within the way it is currently set up. He
10 stated that the City of St. Anthony is an ideal location for the success of this effort. He indicated
11 that there are a number of keys to the success of this effort that included finding a developer that
12 has the wherewithal to ensure that the project makes financial sense for the community, and also
13 making sure that it is designed in a way to accommodate density without causing any threat to
14 the surrounding area.
15
16 Councilmember Thuesen stated that he wanted the details when the Final Concept Plan is
17 presented, as to why and how it came to be the way that it is. Mr. Shardlow indicated that the
18 next step for them is to produce a recommendation of what the concept should be and the reasons
19 for the recommendation.
20.
•21 Councilmember Thuesen asked that the long-term benefits to the city and community be.
22 included in that information. He also requested the Financial Summary be included as well. Mr.
23 Shardlow indicated that all of the requested information will be presented to them, broken down
24 by phases.
25
26 Councilmember Hodson asked if there has been any discussion about how much life the Apache
27 Building has left in it, and has tearing it down and starting from scratch been an option. Mr.
28 Shardlow responded that Apache has some real liabilities aesthetically as it sits today. He
29 indicated that he has a lot of respect for the work Hillcrest has done in other places,. and is
30 confident in their recommendation.
31
32 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that there was never a Planned Unit Development for the park site, and
33 indicated he hoped that one is now in place to make sense of the site. Mr. Shardlow responded
34 that there are some things that can'be improved with some type of Architectural Master Plan, but
35 there is a limit to what can be done that way.
36
37 Mayor Cavanaugh asked for a timeline on this sort of project. Mr. Shardlow stated
38 that, if the building is cleared, and the park is in the center,-then the residential should go fairly
39 quickly. He added that if there is a commitment to clear the land and.improve the visibility, he
40 saw the residential in three to five years.
41
•42 Mayor Cavanaugh acknowledged that there are more tools available to do office space in
43 conjunction with residential. Mr. Shardlow stated that there is a healthy office component in this
44 plan, and it is too difficult to project what the response would be to an office building because it
45 is not a Class A location for office.

2 Councilmember Hodson asked if any of the higher-end developers have seen the last Concept
3
Plan. Mr. Shardlow indicated that they had shown a preliminary draft to a couple of them, and
4 that they will show them some of the newer ideas. Mr. Shardlow stated that, more than anything,
5 the higher-end developers need to see that there is a community that will embrace such a plan.
6
7 Councilmember Hodson asked about the water capacity of the Rice Lake Watershed. Mr.
8 Shardlow indicated that they have an engineer for the ponds and stated that they would be
9 building water filtration throughout the site. He indicated that there were a lot of options with
10 regard to water features in this Plan.
11
12 Councilmember Hodson expressed his concern with the potential sale of the Salvation Army
13 land,and any recommendations for holding ponds on the site. Mr. Shardlow responded that the
14 opportunity exists to make those improvements.
15
16 Councilmember Thuesen asked how they could avoid housing misuse within these potential
17 residential sites, and how the city can get long-term, well-managed residential sites. Mr.
18 Shardlow responded that, first, the Council would have the opportunity to research the work and
19 reputation of any companies that are interested in this project. Second, he indicated that they
20 would be entering into a Redevelopment,Agreement where the value of the development site
821 would be guaranteed. Third, the Planned Unit Development Agreement which would stipulate
22 the quality of the construction.
23
24 Councilmember Sparks mentioned the impact that the project will have on the school district.
25 She expressed her hope that someone analyzes the impact that this project will have on the
26 school district. Mr. Shardlow acknowledged Councilmember Sparks' concerns,but indicated
27 that, until they have a concrete plan with which they are working, they cannot look too deeply
28 into it. He stated that the concern has been heard before and would be addressed.
29

31 for some of the members of the Steering Committee. Mr. Shardlow again stated his pleasure

9 like on a$147,100 house that had it's value assessed at$154,500, and the 18% increase

14 IV. COMMUNITY FORUM.
15 Tom Hauben, 2705 Paul Avenue, stated he was there to discuss the City of St. Anthony's sewer
16 service, or lack thereof. He stated that two years ago his street had the alleys and sewers
17 replaced, yet the storms on April 22nd and April 23"d caused sewer backups in his neighborhood.
18 He wanted to know what actually caused the backups in his neighborhood. He indicated that
19 City workers were out early on those mornings, and if it was a sump-pump problem, he felt the
20 City policies that are in effect are unacceptable.
.21 Mr. Hauben stated he did not understand why other cities were able.to eliminate sewer troubles,
22 and said it was his opinion that a freeze be put on all other building projects until.this one is
23 fixed. Mr. Hauben indicated that his insurance company would probably cancel him because he
24 has had two claims within the last three years, and said he would be filing a claim with the City
25 of St. Anthony tomorrow. Mr. Hauben concluded by saying that he and his neighbors were
26 extremely unhappy about the situation and they felt they deserved the same services that
27 everybody else has in the city.
28 Todd Hubmer responded that they are aware of these problems, and have entered into an
29 agreement with the Metropolitan Council to address this issue. He stated they are currently
30 looking at the area South of Paul Avenue to the city of Minneapolis to see if they have any
31 deficiencies, or repair work that needs to be done. Mr. Hubmer indicated that within the next six
32 weeks, they should have some indication of what type of work needs to be done to alleviate the
33 problem.
34 Mayor Cavanaugh asked if they were going to put cameras along the lights of the area that they
35 will be studying. Mr. Hubmer responded that they would be putting lights there, and that it was a
36 difficult task because it is the trunk line into the City.
37 Councilmember Thuesen asked if there were other problem areas. Mr. Hubmer responded that
38 there was another problem area up at 33`d and Edward, and also some backups along Roosevelt
• 39 and the Minneapolis border. Mr. Hubmer added that sanitary sewer systems were a problem in
40 several areas in the Twin Cities.

1 Councilmember Hodson asked what causes these backups, and how fast the rate of waterfall has
2 to be to cause these problems. Mr. Hubmer responded that the soil was already saturated from
3' the-snow and frost which is what caused the sanitary system to.receive such an inflow of clear-
4 water that it backed up in some of the lower places in town.;:
5 Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that their agreement with the Metropolitan Council was insurance
6 that they were dedicated to fixing the problem. He apologized to Mr. Hauben for the
7 inconveniences, and said WSB would stay on this problem until they had an answer.
8 Mr. Hubmer stated that they went out for bids today, and that bids should be in and completed by
9 the second week of June. He indicated that he could have a report to bring back to the Council
10 the second week of June.
11 Mayor Cavanaugh thanked Mr. Hauben for coming.

24 C. Resolution 01-059, Award Bid-For Landscaping Of Storm Water Pond.
25 Todd Hubmer reviewed the bids that came in on this project on April 26`h. He indicated that one
26 of the reasons that they only had two bidders was because they had to be pre-qualified. Mr.
27 Hubmer stated that the reason for the pre-qualification was due to the sensitive nature of the area.
28 He recommended that Second Nature Lawn And Landscapes be awarded the bid in the amount of
29 $268,715.60.
30 Mayor Cavanaugh asked if the residents had seen this landscaping plan. Mr. Hubmer responded

7 Motion carried unanimously.
8 D. Resolution-01-060. Award Bid For Central Park Redevelopment.
9 City Manager Mornson introduced Bob Kost, of BRW, after expressing his concern over the high'
10 cost of this project. Mr. Kost reviewed the bid process with the Council. He stated that the bids
11 were received on May 1, 2001, and that there were twenty-six interested.parties at the close of
12 the bidding. He stated that only three bids were received, and the lowest bid was nearly. 11%
13 over the engineer's estimate. He also mentioned that all three contractors made significan t errors
14 in their bids.
15 Mr. Kost stated that the bid tabulation was complicated. He indicated that there was a base bid,
•16 and eleven items that were listed as additions,or deductions, as.separate items from the base bid.
17 Mr. Kost stated that the reason for the option to add, or deduct these items was to make the
18 bidding of the project as flexible as possible with regard to the investigation of the contaminated
19 soil, and all areas affected by it.
20 Mr. Kost indicated that some of the interested parties expressed their concern with the
21 contaminated soil.
22 Mr. Kost stated that, after much deliberation with the Parks Commission, he recommended that
23 the Council reject the bids, review the plans,and prepare for a re-bid.
24 Councilmember Thuesen asked if they were to reject the bids, would some of the contractors
25 who did not submit bids have fewer projects then, and be willing to submit this next time. Mr.
26 Kost indicated that was their hope. ..
27 Councilmember Thuesen asked if, now that more is known about the contaminated soil, there is a
28 greater possibility that more would be interested. Mr. Kost indicated that he believed there
29 would be less fear surrounding the project.
30 Councilmember Thuesen asked for some specific dates on the project. Mr. Kost indicated that
31 just after Labor.Day would be the best time to begin the project.
•32 Councilmember Hodson asked why they would not begin sooner. Mr. Kost stated that summer
33 jobs would be winding down, and, hopefully, more of the contractors would be looking for more
34 jobs.

1 Councilmember Hodson asked about extending the bid days. Mr. Kost stated he thought that
2 was a good suggestion.
3 Mayor Cavanaugh asked about the.risk that is'left:.to the bidder regarding the contaminated soil.
4 Mr. Kost explained that the circumstances regarding the risk to the bidders varies from digging
5 into something that would postpone the project, to being required to request a large change order
6 because a special amount of construction needed to be done. He continued that a number of tests
7 have given them a good understanding of the location and extent of the contaminated soil; which
8 has reduced the risks to the bidders significantly.
9 Chris Bradshaw, of BRW, stated that when they presented their plan to the Minnesota Pollution
10 Control Agency, they asked for several additional borings and test trenches. He feels they have
11 peppered the sight with borings, and have delineated two separate, former dumping areas. He
12 stated that looking at where it all lays out in cross-section, the railroad ties need to be pulled out,
13 as well as the contaminated soil associated with the railroad ties.-Mr. Bradshaw added that the
14 health and safety standards of the sight are below risk standards, which is an issue for the
15 workers, as well.
16 Councilmember Thuesen asked if this information was available at the time of bidding. Mr.
17 Bradshaw responded that it was not.available at that time.
1018 Mr. Kost stated that they would restructure the bidding process next time around, and eliminate
19 the options.
20 Mayor Cavanaugh asked Chair Jindra and Maury Anderson their individual opinions on the
21 project bids. Parks Commission Chair Jindra stated that she wants to see the project move
22 forward, but would like to reject the bids at this time. Mr. Anderson stated that the Parks
23 Commission discussed the two options extensively last week, and he believed that the possibility
24 to save money outweighs the risk of the bids possibly coming in higher. His final.
25 recommendation was in agreement with Mr. Kost to re-bid the project.
26 Mayor Cavanaugh asked what costs exist for the city to send this project back out for re-bid.
.27 Mr. Kost stated they would need to redo the bid evaluation, revisit the plans with the Parks
28 Commission and Mr. Anderson. He estimated the total cost to be $10,000, and said he could
29 have the information pulled together in the next couple of weeks.
30 Mr. Kost also indicated that the buildings that were planned to be in Central Park were also an
31 issue for the contractors. He stated that they were seen as unknowns, which meant that they were
32 charging more for them. Mr. Kost suggested putting the bids for Central Park, and the buildings
33 of Central Park out for bid together.
34 Councilmember Horst asked the Council if they wanted to spend this much money. He stated the
•35 project has increased from a park improvement to a new park. Mr. Kost stated that the Parks
36 Commission has discussed that as a very real issue, and that the expectations of Central Park
37 need to be re-determined.

1 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that they cannot afford$2,200,000, and that they should discuss
2 rejecting the bids. Councilmember Horst indicated that he did not want to seem like he was not
3 in favor of the-project at all, but was concerned about_the extreme increase in cost.
4 Councilmember Thuesen stated that the Council should determine a dollar amount that they will
5 put into this project, as well as give the Parks Commission a firm date.
6 Mr. Kost stated that he agreed with Councilmember Thuesen that a specific budget needed to be
7 determined now that they have all of the necessary information.
8 Councilmember Horst indicated that he would be comfortable with the initial budget for the
9 project of$1,600,000. He added that, if obstacles came along, that a changes order be submitted
10 and discussed, as they have done with passed projects.
_ 11 Councilmember Thuesen indicated that he would be comfortable with Roger Larson's
12 recommendation of$2,300,000, which included the buildings. Councilmember Horst stated that
13 if they go with that budget, they are in the position to spend every penny, which he was not
14 comfortable with.
15 Councilmember Hodson stated that it has been indicated that they have the funds to do a.lot of
•16 the discussed plans, and that they discuss those things. He stated that they have not done.
17 anything to Central Park for forty-five years, and that it is time to make it a place for multi-
18 generational use.
19 Councilmember Horst stated that, while the park may not be functioning to their liking, it is
20 functioning. He asked why they do not put some more money into the infrastructure of the city,
21 such as the Public Works Fire Station.
22 Councilmember Sparks interjected that the park improvements are critical. She referred to some
23 research that she had done which indicated that city parks increase real-estate values
24 substantially, and ensure a safer living environment through lighting. Councilmember Sparks
25 stated that the improvements to Central Park are not a luxury, and are as important as all of the
26 other projects in the city.
27 Councilmember Horst stated that he agreed with the information that Councilmember Sparks
28 reviewed, but that things needed to be prioritized. Councilmember Sparks stated that all of the
29 projects mentioned tonight were important, including the Central Park project.
30 Parks Commission Chair Jindra stated that she attended a City Council meeting back in April of
31 1997 that was filled with residents, and the decision was made to improve the parks in the area.
32 She asked the Council when that promise would be fulfilled.
33
•34 Councilmember Horst stated that he was not opposed to the Central Park Project, but that he did
35 not support pouring all of the possible funds into the project.

1 Councilmember Sparks stated that she trusted in their Finance Director Roger Larson that they
2 could spend$2,300,000 to do the Central Park Project. Councilmember Horst stated it was the
3 first time that they were paying attention to what Mr. Larson had to say. Mayor Cavanaugh
4 indicated that was untrue, and that it was the first time they had Mr. Larson for a budget
5 for this project.
6 Mayor Cavanaugh recommended that they follow the guidance of Mr. Larson, and make the
7 budget$2,300,000 for the Central Park Project.
8 The City Council commended the Parks Commission for their work thus far.
9 Motion by Mayor Cavanaugh, second by Councilmember Thuesen, that the Central Park Project

12 E. Resolution 01-061, Approve Building Designs And Cost Estimates For City Parks
13 Building By SEH.
14 Ms. Olivier asked the Council what funds would be there for the buildings. Mayor Cavanaugh
15 responded that it was unknown at this point:
016 Ms. Olivier asked if the Silver Point Project was included in the $2,300,000. Mayor Cavanaugh
17 stated that it was not.
18 Ms. Olivier indicated that they were ready to begin construction documents at this point, and that
19 they wanted to draw up the plans for the buildings for Central Park and Silver Point Park in order
20 to keep costs down.
21 Councilmember Horst asked Mike Mornson to review the funding status of the two projects. It
22 was determined that the DNR was funding the Silver Point Park project.
23 Parks Commission Chair Jindra informed the Council that the original plans for Central Park
24 included renovating a forty-five year old building by the wading pool. The Parks Commission
25 has decided to put in a new building instead with a warning house and a.meeting room.
26 Councilmember Sparks added that she has seen the building that it is being modeled after and
27 shared some of the amenities with the Council. Councilmember Horst stated that all was well, if
28 they could afford it.
29 Resolution tabled.

1 the organization. He stated that the financial condition of the City continues to remain strong.
2 He noted that the City's financial condition has not changed significantly over the past several
3 years.
4 Mr. Bonniwell continued by reviewing a summary of significant activities of the different fund
5 categories:
6 The General Fund at December 31,2000 was $976,523, which represented an increase of
7 12.15% from the prior year's fund balance. Revenues and transfers of$3,472,701 were
8 less than budgeted estimates by approximately $55,000 due to a budget transfer of
9 $250,000 not deemed necessary by City management. The fund balance of the General
10 Reserve Fund of$250,000 was designated for revenue stabilization purposes in the
11 General Fund, or for capital acquisitions in 2001.
12 Many of the Debt Service Funds maintained relate to the City's street improvement
13 program: Existing fund balances, combined with annual tax and assessment levy
14 amounts, was sufficient to satisfy 2001 debt service requirements.
15
16 The Capital Project Funds for the year 2000 were largely used for improvement costs.
17 Improvement costs incurred by the City amounted to$3,837,973. Proceeds from two
18 bond issues, in addition to state aids, were used to fund those projects.
�19 _
20 Proprietary Funds. The financial condition of each enterprise fund improved based on
21 results of operations for 2000. The Liquor Fund had a net income of$217,822 for the
22 year. After budgeted transfers of$140,000, the increase in retained earnings was
23 $77,822. The Utility Fund had a net income from operations of$514,366 for the year.
24 Retained earnings of the Utility Fund were approximately $7,000,000, which are reserved
25 for water filtration and purification improvements. The Deficit of the Employee Benefit
26 Fund is $196,615 at the end of the year. The liability for compensated absences increased
27 as a result of the conversion from sick days to personal leave days for computation of the
28 liability amount.
29
30 Mr. Bonniwell reviewed the Government Accounting Standards Board(GASB) Statement
31 Number 34 with the Council. He indicated it was-the most significant change in the
32 governmental financial reporting model in over twenty.years. He said this statement establishes
33 financial reporting standards for state and local governments.
34 Mr. Bonniwell reviewed some of the major concepts of the Statement:
35 1. A section titled"management's discussion and analysis' must be added to the
36 financial report and statements.
37 2. Government-wide financial statements will replace the current general purpose
1038 financial statements as they are referred to.
39 3. Individual fund financial statements will also be included in the financial report.

3 basis and the_government-wide financial statements, and other types of financial
4 data required by previous.GASB pronouncements.
5 Mr. Bonniwell stated that the requirements of this statement are effective in three phases based
6 on a government's total annual revenues in the first fiscal year ending after June 15,1999. He
7 indicated that earlier implementation of this Statement was encouraged but not required.
8 The Council discussed the items reviewed by Mr. Bonniwell and thanked him for coming.
9 VI. REVIEW ITEMS.
10 Mayor Cavanaugh mentioned the Stonehouse and the rumors of closing it down. The Council
11 discussed the rumors, the pull-tabs, and the Sports Boosters. Mayor Cavanaugh indicated that he

13 Stonehouse, in order to prevent them from being forced to do so in an unprepared manner.

HENNEPIN COUNTY CHIEF'S OF POLICE ASSOCIATION
® MUTUAL AID PACT
Effective July 1, 2001
FOREWORD
The Mutual Aid Committee of the Hennepin County Chief's of Police Association was tasked with
revising and updating the mutual aid pact among all the police agencies of Hennepin County. The
original pact was created in 1968 with the various agencies joining the pact throughout the years.
Many provisions of the original pact were continued into the new pact. The Joint and Cooperative
Agreement for Use of Law Enforcement Personnel and Equipment in Hennepin County ("Joint
Powers Agreement") was updated to reflect accurately the procedures, address current issues and
enhance the ability of departments to share resources with each other. Each agency's resources
will be included in the new pact.
• The general purpose of the pact is to permit agencies to share law enforcement resources with
other agencies in Hennepin County. The Joint Powers Agreement specifically allows a requesting
party to select the resources that best meets the needs of a given situation. A requesting party
may call upon any other participating party for mutual aid. There is no requirement to make
requests through a particular party. In addition, the Joint Powers Agreement should not be
interpreted as restrictive in providing resources to deal with only major catastrophic situations.
Participating parties can utilize the resources for many reasons including routine circumstances
such_as training efforts and back-up patrol service. This pact provides the flexibility for all agencies
to use the resources located among all participating parties in Hennepin County.
The decision as to when to invoke mutual aid and whether to respond is left to the discretion of the
requesting or responding party. Each agency should acquaint supervisory personnel with any
® internal procedures used for mutual aid. While the Joint Powers Agreement does not require
particular words or actions to initiate mutual aid, agencies should be clear about whether mutual
file://D:\docs\Forward.htm 4/23/01
FORWARD Page 2 27
aid was requested and what type of assistance is being provided. Furthermore, each officer within
® a department should have a basic familiarity with mutual aid, the responsibilities when reporting to
another agency and the protections afforded under the agency's worker's compensation.
Management of a mutual aid situation specifically remains under the control of the requesting
party. The sending party retains direction and control of any personnel provided. Yet, the sending
party must coordinate with the requesting party the law enforcement assistance provided.
A reminder about the time commitments for mutual aid requests. While there is no hard and fast
time limit, the commitment of resources can be taxing on agencies. And, in some situations, an
advantage can be gained by ending a mutual aid request and entering into some contractual
assistance. Especially when the law enforcement costs need to be tracked or can be recovered
from other sources.
• The Hennepin County Sheriff's Department ("Sheriff") has again volunteered to serve as the
administrative coordinator of the pact. As communities adopt the Joint Powers Agreement, the
appropriate documentation and signature page need to be forwarded to the Sheriff. The Sheriff
will maintain a current list of the participating parties. The Sheriff will also distribute updates on
available resources.
The effective date for the new Joint Powers Agreement is July 1, 2001. This date was established
to allow enough time for agencies to receive the.appropriate authority and to provide some finality
between, the old pact and the new pact. When a party elects to enter into the new Joint Powers
Agreement, their participation in the old pact will cease on July 1, 2001. Some agencies may elect
to not participate in this pact; those agencies would be bound under other mutual aid agreements
or state statutes.
•
Again, this pact should be viewed as a means whereby participating parties may receive any

MEMORANDUM
DATE: May 15, 2001
TO: Mike Mornson, City Manager
FROM: Roger Larson, Finance Director
ITEM: LEAGUE OF MN CITIES INSURANCE RENEWAL
Mr. Carl Bennetsen will be present at the May 22, 2001, Council Meeting to discuss, answer
questions and finalize insurance coverage for June 1, 2001 - May 31, 2002.
The attached information includes price quotations for property, auto, general liability, and
workers' compensation. The cost for maintaining our present coverage of $10,000 deductible
and $50,000 aggregate through the League of Minnesota Cities totals $146,059.
• This amount represents an increase in premiums of$2,240,Which is primarily due to increases in
property and general liability premiums.
As in previous years, no other insurance companies chose to compete with the League of
Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust. Last years coverage is primarily duplicated, however, the
League is in the process of developing No Fault Sewer Backup Coverage which could be
added to our policy when the League confirms its available (Mr. Bennetsen is prepared to discuss
with Council).
Workers' compensation costs continue to be a concern for all Minnesota businesses. The
decrease in the work-comp premium is due to an decrease in St. Anthony's experience
modification, (1.28 to _1.2.1) which is directly related. to workers compensation claims and
payments._ .
To help rehabilitate employees in a timely manner, St. Anthony adopted a Managed Care Plan
where employees who are injured on the job are assigned to a specific clinic for rehabilitation of
their injury.
This results in a 5% reduction in workers' comp premiums and assists the employee with
developing a medical plan and treatment schedule.

Dram Shop/Liquor Liability
Three company's bid on the liquor. liability.coverage. -(Christopher Skelton from-Sunrise Park
Insurance Agency will be present to answer questions).,Competitive bidding is always beneficial
and creates competition between vendors.
The cost for coverage from these carriers varied in price, as did the coverage offered. United
National Insurance Company (last years carrier) was the low bidder, provides excellent coverage
that complies with State Statues relating to Dram Shop coverage.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the following municipal & liquor insurance coverage totaling
$169,205 for the upcoming year (Includes $10,000 Deductible Per Occurrence/$50,000
Aggregate):
1) Council approve the League of Minnesota Cities insurance proposal
for the following:

B. Inland Marine $ 2,574

1 VIII. COMMITTEE REPORTS.
2 8.1 Report of Sign Subcommittee City Monument Sign Recommendation.
3 Assistant City Manager Sue Henry explained that the Planning Committee met with the City
4 Council and discussed the City Monument sign. The consensus was to go ahead with the city
5 electronic monument sign,justifying public purposes as the reason. Ms. Henry indicated that the
6 decision requires a city ordinance change.
7 Ms. Henry continued that the public hearing on the ordinance would take place on June 19, 2001,
8 if the Planning Commission agreed to pursue the ordinance change. Ms. Henry added that the
9 Council would then have three hearings on the case on June 26,July 10, and July 24, 2001.
10 Ms. Henry reviewed the different locations that have been suggested for sign placement.
11 Vice Chair Stille explained that they would have their own public meeting on June 19`h
12 _ indicating that the Commission has time to further discuss the recommendation before it is due to
13 go before the Council.
14 Commissioner Tillmann stated she would like to review this sign in relation to the other signs in
15 town, and establish the way that electronic signs will be treated in other areas of the City of St.
16 Anthony.
17 Vice Chair Stille stated that the Commission needed to establish where these signs for public
18 information should be allowed. He mentioned recreational property,commercial property, or
19 city-owned property, and asked for input from the Commissioners.
20 Commissioner Hanson noted that the Stonehouse sign is not on property owned by the City of St.
21 Anthony. He stated he feels that the new City sign should be on recreational land.
