A. Resolution 20-054; a Resolution Approving First Amendment to Contract for Private 1
Redevelopment between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of St. Anthony, the 2
City of St. Anthony, and Doran SLV, LLC. 3
4
Mr. Keith Dahl, Ehlers & Associates made a presentation. 5
6
Councilmember Randle asked what guarantee the City has that Doran will follow through with 7
Phase II if this is pushed back with the TIF note all up front. He also wondered what securities 8
the City would have. Mr. Dahl explained the securities the City has is in the first amendment 9
and the TIF note will be reduced. The HRA is responsible for providing the assistance. The City 10
and the Antiquary are collecting the increment that is being generated from these properties and 11
paying ninety percent of the available tax increment that is collected to the developer. The 12
guarantee is that should Phase II not commence, the TIF note is going to be reduced by the 13
amount originally agreed to be provided to Phase II. It would be reduced by $1.35 million and 14
would revert back to the original agreed upon TIF note size for Phase I, which was $1.95 million. 15
There is that provision in the first amendment but then the City and HRA also retain the ability to 16
stop making payments should Phase II not commence. 17
18
Councilmember Webster indicated in part C there is verbiage that talks about the HRA would 19
allow the developer to sign the TIF note to an affiliate or Kelly J. Doran without approval and 20
she asked for an example of where that has happened in the past and what it might look like. Mr. 21
Dahl stated developers like to have several companies to hold on to a specific property. This is 22
pretty standard with most development projects across the Twin Cities. A developer will build it 23
under one name and then transfer it to a new entity under a different name but still affiliated all 24
with the same developer. This is done for tax purposes and liability sake. 25
26
Councilmember Jenson asked Mr. Dahl if he saw any risk in this proposal from a city standpoint. 27
Mr. Dahl indicated he did not because precautions were built in to ensure that Phase II will be 28
constructed and if it is not constructed it will be reverted back to the same agreed upon size of 29
the TIF note for Phase I. 30
31
City M anager Casey explained the City Attorney has also had the opportunity to review this and 32
they coincided with everything that Mr. Dahl and Ehlers has presented in regard to any risks the 33
City would have, and the securities provided. Also, for Phase II since there is both a contract 34
and an agreement, if there was any material change in what was presented for the Final PUD, 35
that would come back to the Council for any kind of approvals. What was presented is what 36
staff is anticipating being built. 37
38
Mayor Stille indicated the TIF Note amount is not changing by any means and the term of the 39
notes are also not changing but being consolidated into one. Mr. Dahl indicated that was correct. 40
41
Mayor Stille noted in the marketplace they have seen a lot of changes to contracts such as this, 42
not only cities but banks. In this case he really thought that the developers and the City’s 43
interests are mutually aligned. 44

Motion by Councilmember Jenson, seconded by Councilmember Randle, to approve Resolution 1
20-054; a Resolution Approving First Amendment to Contract for Private Redevelopment 2
between the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of St. Anthony, the City of St. Anthony, and 3
Doran SLV, LLC. 4

B. Presentation of 2019 Audit 8
9
Mr. Andy Hering, Redpath made a presentation to the City Council on the 2019 City Audit. 10
11
Councilmember Jenson complimented Shelly Rueckert in the Finance Department with the 12
integrity they have in compiling and performing all of the financial transactions for the City. As 13
a resident he really appreciated the effort that her team puts forth to serve the residents. He also 14
thanked Redpath for performing such a thorough audit. 15
16
Mayor Stille explained Redpath is working for the Council and it is their charge to make sure 17
that these books are in order. The Council cannot do that alone in their role so Redpath reports 18
to the Council and the reason why some of the language looks the way it does. The fact that 19
there are no findings is outstanding and the Council is glad that there are none. He thought that 20
is a testimony to Shelly Rueckert and the Council has a lot of confidence in her. 21
22
Mayor Stille indicated he also wanted to talk about the state of affairs in the City. He considers 23
the audit as one component, but the audit just tells them that things are operating nicely, and the 24
numbers add up. He stated this is a two-prong approach because the City has a bond rating that 25
also occurs every time there is a bond issue and that rating has been an AA for many years which 26
tells them of the City’s financial health. Between these two he thought the community could get 27
a good sense of the financial soundness of the City and where its money goes. 28
29
Mayor Stille stated on the working capital slide the City has a minimum of thirty percent of the 30
budget and after adjustments that amounts to two million dollars. The City has close to $2.5 31
million and the measurements for that is done at December 31st of every year but what needs to 32
be realized is that the City only gets paid in July and December so the measurement is taken at 33
its high point and the City has to rely on that cash to pay bills between January through June. 34
That is the reason why the City needs to be steadfast and make sure it has enough cash to pay the 35
bills. 36
37
Mayor Stille reviewed the water and sewer fund and noted the graph is showing the City is 38
collecting enough funds to pay for all of the expenses. He noted the water fund is not covering 39
all of its expenses and the City is trying to get people to use less water so in some ways the graph 40
can be looked at as sustainability where the City is doing a good job but will need to find ways to 41
make this fund balance and possibly raise fees to cover the expenses. 42
43
Mayor Stille indicated the City does a street project every year with bond financing which are 44
rated, and that debt accumulates. In 2011 the debt was close to $36 million and that was spread 45
out over 15 years and amortize it, so the City is then able to pay for its street projects and keep 46
3

June 23, 2020

the infrastructure vibrant. In 2019 the debt was $29 million or nineteen percent lower than 2011 1
for a difference of $6.7 million and he thought that will bode well in the next bond rating. 2
3
Councilmember Randle thought it was important to let the residents know where the money 4
comes from that the City gets twice a year. Mayor Stille explained the money comes from the 5
County. The County collects the property taxes and then disburses it to the cities twice a year. 6

28
Motion by Councilmember Jenson, seconded by Councilmember Randle, to approve Resolution 29
20-056; a Resolution Adopting the COVID-19 Preparedness Plan for the City of St. Anthony. 30
31
Councilmember Walker stated he had a question in terms of the language. Some of the language 32
seems a little vague in some sense. He was reading through it and there are pieces that states 33
“staff would be advised or encourage to do a certain thing in virtue of the protocol that is 34
recommended by Minnesota Department of Health” and it seems a little vague and up to the 35
discretion of individuals rather than it being more specific and mandated by management so that 36
there is a consistency among what the protocol would look like among all staff. Mr. Casey 37
stated in crafting this document staff looked at it from the approach of following within MDH 38
and CDC’s guidelines and regarding the implementation of it as long as staff is making sure 39
these are filled within the intent of those guidelines. He has confidence in staff’s ability to make 40
sure that they are applied to the fullest extent beyond adding any additional language. 41
42
Motion carried 5-0. 43

City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
June 23, 2020
Page 5
City Manager Casey reported that Village Notes should be going out to residents’ mailboxes 1
soon and is also available electronically. He stated at the last Council meeting he introduced the 2
idea to the City Council about the possibility of creating a Public Safety Commission. As stated 3
two weeks ago, this would be a forum for residents to voice their opinions regarding public 4
safety within the community. He also stated that he envisioned the Commission to be advisory 5
to the City Council. He wanted to be very clear that in this recommendation he would not 6
recommend the creation of any form of a Police Oversight Board. 7
8
Councilmember Jenson stated on June 15th he attended two work sessions. The first one they 9
reviewed a TIF request from Development 65 for 125-unit senior housing project along Stinson 10
Parkway within the Union Grove Property and no decision was made on that. The other session 11
was a tour of the City and discussed 34 potential Capital projects with no final decisions made. 12
On June 18th he attended Metro Cities Executive Board meeting where the Fiscal year 2021 13
Budget was discussed and approved. There was also discussion about Policy Development 14
Process which includes four standing policy committees. The first is Municipal Revenue, 15
Transportation and General Government and Housing and Economic Development in 16
Metropolitan Agencies. Discussion went into a regular revised policy guidelines to be compiled 17
and developed through a very significant equity line and that subcommittee is starting to meet in 18
the next month before it is rolled out to the policy committees which begin at the end of July 19
through August. 20
21
Councilmember Randle stated he attended two work sessions. 22
23
Councilmember Webster stated Village Fest will not be held in person. A final decision was 24
made last week, and they are continuing to look at other ways that the community can come 25
together virtually or support local businesses that same weekend. This Saturday, June 27th, St. 26
Anthony Kiwanis is hosting a zoom auction. 27
28
Mayor Stille stated he attended the June 15th Work sessions as well. He highlighted the tour that 29
was taken throughout the City. 30

Re: Appeal of Dangerous Dog Declaration
Dear Chief Mangseth & City Councilmembers:
We are respectfully appealing the declaration of our dog, Hammerheart, as a dangerous dog, to the City
Council as the impartial hearing officer pursuant to Minnesota Statute 347.54 and City Code Section
91.44. The declaration was made in a June 11, 2020, letter from Detective Kiel Rushton with the St.
Anthony Police Department.
Introduction & Overview
There were two incidents that gave rise to Hammerheart being declared a potentially dangerous dog and
then a dangerous dog. Neither incident evidences an aggressive dog or a dog whom is intending harm.
Hammerheart’s general disposition is extremely friendly and eager to please, which makes him highly
trainable.
It is our position that Hammerheart does not meet the definition of a dangerous dog primarily as the
second incident on May 28, 2020, giving rise to the declaration, was not an aggressive bite.
That said, we acknowledge that Hammerheart is a leash reactive dog, which is decidedly different than
being aggressive or dangerous. As dog owners, we have taken precautions in response to his leash
reactivity and have trained him to decrease his leash reactivity. In light of the recent incident and
Hammerheart’s leash reactivity, we have intensified our training and will be taking additional handling
precautions as it is clear our efforts were insufficient.
In light of the dog’s overall disposition, continuing training, and safe handling precautions that we will be
taking, we are confident Hammerheart does not pose a danger.

Factual Background
History, General Disposition & Training of Hammerheart
We adopted Hammerheart in September 2017 at which time he was estimated to be approximately one
and a half to two years old, making him approximately four or five years old at this time. Hammerheart
does not have paperwork, but his breed appears to be that of an American Pit Bull Terrier. He resides
with our other dog, a beagle named Talisker. Hammerheart has lived since his adoption in St. Anthony.
Hammerheart came to us being well trained indoors, including being trained not to run out of open doors,
to go to his crate when you say “crate,” and basic obedience training such as sit, come, and stay.
Hammerheart is extremely friendly both inside and outside, and has positively interacted with people of
all ages, including youth, toddlers, and babies. There has never been an incident in which he was reactive
or aggressive inside our home or any other space where he was off-leash.
Enclosed please find a statement from one of my neighbors, Karolyn Busacker, regarding the experience
of her family with Hammerheart as a friendly dog. See Exhibit 1. I have not had time to collect
additional written statements from people familiar with Hammerheart’s temperament, but reserve the
right to do so and/or have people come to the hearing to make statements.
Hammerheart was not leash trained when we adopted him. Initially, he did not seem to understand what
happened when you hit the end of a leash, and was very excited by everything he saw on walks. When
we first adopted Hammerheart, he would jump and bark excitedly at virtually every car that drove by,
every person, every dog, etc.
In May 2018, we contracted with Bark Busters for a lifetime training membership for Hammerheart and
Talisker. We have worked with a trainer / animal behavioral therapist named Lynne Willeke, with
experience since 2006 working with thousands of dogs. See Exhibit 2.
We had three training session in 2018 with Ms. Willeke and worked extensively based on those trainings
with Hammerheart to become less leash reactive. The training includes reconditioning a dog’s emotional
response to a stimulus, redirecting the dog to avoid the stimulus triggering reactiveness, and exercising
verbal control over the dog – primarily sit, look, stay utilizing a “bah” sound that asserts you are the
alpha.
After the training sessions in 2018, Hammerheart made substantial improvement with is leash reactive
behaviors. This demonstrates that he is very capable of being trained to decrease his leash reactive
behaviors.
As a result of the training, Hammerheart now almost never reacts to people walking or cars. When it
comes to runners and people on bicycles, it is rare (estimated at less than five percent of the time) for
Hammerheart to react to a runner or a biker at this time provided they are at least half a road width away.
When Hammerheart does react to a biker or runner, it is to jump or lunge excitedly in their direction while
barking. The bark is loud and deep, but is almost always accompanied by a wagging tail. To the best of
our recollection, we have never seen Hammerheart exhibit the classic signs of aggression at a biker or
18
Page 3 of 35
runner; the classic signs of aggression being flat ears, raised scruff/raised fur on back, growling, snarling,
showing teeth, or foaming of the mouth.
We have taken precautions while walking Hammerheart in light of his leash reactivity, primarily to avoid
him jumping on someone. These precautions have included the following:
We walk both dogs on either a four or six foot leash with traffic control handles (handles that you
can grab close to the dog to shorten their leash when situations call for it).
Hammerheart is walked in a front clip walking harness that subdues him and limits his ability to
pull since when he pulls, his own pull turns him sideways and trains him not to pull. The harness
generally puts him in a mindset that we are in “walk” mode and not a “run around wild and play”
mode, resulting in a more subdued/less excited dog.
When we walk, we avoid highly populated areas such as parks or the sidewalks; if we do go
briefly onto a sidewalk, we are diligent and usually walk them with the traffic control handle in
hand.
We use verbal control in line with the dogs’ training to control them on walks.
We generally limit the people who walk Hammerheart to ourselves and a few select adults
familiar with Hammerheart.
There have admittedly been many cases in which Hammerheart jumps at runners and bicyclists, but none
have resulted in Hammerheart making contact or even getting close to making contact with the runner or
bicyclist other than the two incidents both reported to the police as described below. Both dogs have been
walked extensively; Meridith on average has walked the dogs more than an hour each day during the
spring, summer and fall seasons. Other than as described in this appeal, there has never been an incident
in which Hammerheart has bite a person.
Incident on April 25, 2019
On April 25, 2019, Meridith had Hammerheart on a long metal tether in our yard. It was a metal tether
purchased from Petsmart made for a 100 pound dog. It was securely fastened to a fence corner post at the
far side of our yard. The tether had been left outside over winter. A bicyclist came off Silver Lake Road
and turned onto Hilldale Avenue outside our home at 3207 Silver Lake Road Northeast. Hammerheart
ran to chase the bicyclist and the tether snapped; upon later inspection, the metal tether was brittle from
being left out in the cold over the winter.
The bicyclist, Keith Pearson, saw Hammerheart running towards him, stopped biking, and dismounted
from the bike with the bike between him and Hammerheart. Mr. Pearson’s leg was in the air as he was
dismounting when Hammerheart got there. Hammerheart grabbed the boot that was in the air with his
mouth and held it there.
Meridith was outside pulling weeds near the side entrance to our home on Hilldale Avenue. When
Meridith realized that the tether had snapped, she hollered at Hammerheart two commands:
“Hammerheart stop! Hammerheart come!” Meridith began running towards the street at that time.
Hammertheart at that time (it was immediate or close to it) released the bicyclist’s boot and trotted back
to Meridith, with his tail wagging. Meridith did not physically have to remove Hammerheart from the
bicyclist; Meridith was only a few steps away from where she had been pulling weeds when
Hammerheart got to her. There was no growling, flat ears, or raised fur or other signs of aggression at
any time during the incident; there was excited barking.
19
Page 4 of 35
Mr. Pearson and Meridith spoke after the incident. Mr. Pearson showed Meridith his boot, which had a
single puncture in it. Mr. Pearson informed Meridith he felt the pressure of the tooth on his foot but that
as soon as he felt the pressure, the pressure let up; no skin was broken.
The incident was reported to the police and a potentially dangerous dog letter was issued. The potentially
dangerous dog letter references the incident as a “bite.” The police report and photo of boot is attached.
See Exhibit 9.
Mr. Pearson during nice weather rides past our home where the incident occurred on a frequent basis
(near daily or even multiple times a day). This demonstrates that Mr. Pearson is either not scared of
Hammerheart or he is at least not so scared that he avoids the property.
Incident on May 28, 2020
On May 28, 2020, Meridith’s sister, Becky Burke, was visiting during the day. Ms. Burke volunteered to
walk the dogs since Meridith was recovering from a broken ankle and torn ACL. Ms. Burke was
downstairs when she volunteered to walk the dogs and Meridith was upstairs. Ms. Burke had left with the
dogs before Meridith made it down the stairs to assist in setting up the harness. Ms. Burke left without
putting the harness on Hammerheart, which again, controls his walking and generally subdues him by
placing him in “walk” mode.
Ms. Burke has infrequently walked the dogs but has been with Meridith on several occasions when
Meridith was walking Hammerheart and Hammerheart exhibited leash reactive behaviors. Based on this,
Meridith believed that that Ms. Burke was aware of the precautions needed to be taken when walking
Hammerheart.
While Ms. Burke was walking the dogs on the sidewalk near Silver Lake Road and 33rd Avenue, a runner,
Tim Hayden, approached. As Mr. Hayden was approaching, Ms. Burke took the dogs to the side of the
sidewalk and grabbed the dogs’ leashes between the top of the leash and the traffic control handle. Ms.
Burke did not give the dogs verbal commands to sit and stay, which is again how they have been trained.
As Mr. Hayden ran by, Hammerheart jumped at him. Both Ms. Burke and Mr. Hayden describe the jump
as an “excited” jump. There was barking as Hammerheart jumped but no growling, snarling, or other
signs of aggression.
Based on the statement made by Mr. Hayden (neither Meridith nor David was there, and Ms. Burke just
saw the jump but not a mouth open or bite), Hammerheart bit him in the stomach. There was a single
bite. There was not any substantial bleeding.
Ms. Burke hollered at Hammerheart and pulled on his leash. Hammerheart responded by calming down
immediately and made no further attempts to jump towards or advance towards Mr. Hayden. My.
Hayden stated at that time it looked like he could have reached out to pet Hammerheart. Mr. Hayden
walked back to Meridith’s home with Ms. Burke, with Hammerheart and Talisker walking on the other
side of her. Hammerheart made no attempts to approach Mr. Hayden as they were walking, and Mr.
Hayden did not feel threatened or scared by Hammerheart. Mr. Hayden stated at Meridith’s home he did
20
Page 5 of 35
not wish to see any harm come to Hammerheart or for Hammerheart to have to be put down. A police
report was filed by Mr. Hayden. See Exhibit 10.
Mr. Hayden spoke to Meridith on June 20, 2020, during which time he went over with her how the
incident occurred. During this call, Mr. Hayden confirmed he had not needed to and had not sought
medical attention. Mr. Hayden expressed his regret that this incident had led to Hammerheart being
declared a dangerous dog and volunteered to sign a statement that included his desire that Hammerheart
not be declared a dangerous dog or need to be put down. Enclosed please find the statement regarding the
incident and Mr. Hayden’s wish that Hammerheart not be declared a dangerous dog. See Exhibit 3.
Communications with Detective Rushton
Detective Rushton called Meridith on Friday, June 5, 2020, regarding the incident. At that time,
Detective Rushton stated that Hammerheart would need to be quarantined for ten days from the incident;
requested a copy of his proof of rabies vaccination; and stated that Hammerheart would essentially be
watched as a result of the incident. Meridith sent the proof of vaccinations to Detective Rushton on June
5, 2020.
On June 11, 2020, Detective Rushton called Meridith and informed her that he discovered there was a
prior incident, so he would have to send a dangerous dog letter. Detective Rushton stated during the call
that it was something that the department had to do for liability reasons and that no one in the department
wanted to see the dog put down.
On June 16, 2020, Detective Rushton called Meridith and informed her there was an ordinance he was not
aware of that his chief had made him aware of which did not permit any dog designated as dangerous to
remain in the City of St. Anthony. Detective Rushton offered to mail the ordinance or stop by with the
same to provide to Meridith. Meridith asked Detective Rushton to stop by and he did so, delivering a
copy of the ordinance. Detective Rushton verbally informed Meridith that she had 14 days to appeal the
designation of dangerous dog. During this conversation, Detective Rushton mentioned that a former
police officer had a dog declared dangerous and successfully presented an appeal that discussed safety
measures he had taken and testimony from his neighbors that they were not threatened by the dog.
Detective Rushton offered to help in any way he could.
One June 21, 2020, Meridith sent an email to Detective Rushton seeking confirmation whether there was
any way to register Hammerheart as a dangerous dog with the City of St. Anthony. On June 22, 2020,
Detective Rushton replied, in part, as follows: “You cannot register a dangerous dog in St Anthony, as per
code, dangerous dogs are NOT allowed in the city at all.”
Meridith sent an additional email to Detective Rushton on June 22, 2020, referencing, among other
things, the statement he had made that the department had to send the letter and confirming that St.
Anthony did not have an animal behavioral specialist who could come evaluate Hammerheart. Officer
Rushton replied confirming no animal behavioral specialist was available to evaluate a dog declared
dangerous and that: “[W]e send the letter [dangerous dog letter], as a practice, to every owner of every
dog whom has had two reported bite incidents.” See Exhibit 4.
21
Page 6 of 35
Effect of St. Anthony Ordinance
The St. Anthony ordinance referenced by Detective Ruston is Section 91.36 of the City Code:
The practical and foreseeable effect of this ordinance, if valid and applicable to Hammerheart, is
tantamount to an order that Hammerheart be destroyed/killed. No animal rescues in Minnesota will
accept a dog for surrender whom has been declared to be a dangerous dog. It is not feasible for us to
move, nor is it our desire. We have explored some options to re-home Hammerheart with someone we
know, to no avail. We do not want to post a random ad for someone to adopt Hammerheart as a person
could seek a pit bull whom has been labeled dangerous and intend to use them for an improper purpose,
which may pose a poor quality of life for Hammerheart and a danger to the public.
The effect of the ordinance is for Hammerheart to be put down despite the fact that no one – not Mr.
Pearson, Mr. Hayden, or either police officer whom responded to the incidents – has indicated to us that
they believe kill order of Hammerheart is either necessary or appropriate.
Training Evaluation & Training Plan after Incident on May 28, 2020
On June 18, 2020, we had Ms. Willeke with Bark Busters come to our home to evaluate Hammeheart and
update the dogs’ training plan. As part of the evaluation, Ms. Willeke observed Hammerheart near, but
not on the sidewalk, where there were numerous bikers, runners and other dogs.
Ms Willeke notes that Hammerheart has become much less reactive since the first training visit in May
2018 and that she believes he can get even better. Ms. Willeke’s training plan focuses on reconditioning
the dogs’ emotional responses to movement from bikes and runners through a variety of training methods.
The training method that Ms. Willeke emphasized to focus on involve re-directing Hammerheart at first
distraction prior to their being a reaction. The invoice and notes from the training session are enclosed
with this appeal. See Exhibit 5.
In the event that Hammerheart remains a part of our family, we will be training diligently to decrease his
leash reactiveness under the guidance of Ms. Willeke. We purchased in May 2018 a lifetime training
membership that includes an unlimited number of in-home training visits for Hammerheart.
22
Page 7 of 35
Future Precautions Due to Leash Reactiveness
In the event that Hammerheart remains a part of our family, we will be taking precautions regardless of
the outcome of this appeal, until his leash reactiveness is substantially decreased from ongoing training as
recommended by Ms. Willeke or other Bark Busters associate.
These precautions include:
We will continue to primarily walk Hammerheart on less busy residential streets and not
sidewalks or parks.
We will continue to walk Hammerheart on a four or six foot leash with his harness.
We will use the basket muzzle we have purchased and are using since the incident on May 28,
2020, in the event we are taking Hammerheart off the premises in an urban area.
We will more strictly restrict whom can walk the dogs and provide additional instructions to
walkers.
We and anyone else whom we allow to walk our dogs will walk them separately; Ms. Willeke has
instructed us that walking them separately provides for a more controlled walk and better training
experience.
Additionally, we are building a six foot privacy fence on our property this summer. The six foot fence
will be a secure enclosure for both dogs.
Bases for Appeal
It is our position that the dangerous dog designation is not proper and that the City Council should revoke
the designation under state law for the reasons set forth below.
The Dangerous Dog Designation is Erroneous as the Incident that Occurred on May 28, 2020, Does Not
Meet the Definition of a Dangerous Dog
The incident on May 28, 2020, does not satisfy any of the requirements of the definition of dangerous dog
and thus the declaration of Hammeheart as a dangerous dog is erroneous.
The definition of a potentially dangerous dog is as follows pursuant to Minnesota Statute 347.50,
subdivision 2 (emphasis added):
Dangerous dog. "Dangerous dog" means any dog that has:
(1) without provocation, inflicted substantial bodily harm on a human being on public or private
property;
(2) killed a domestic animal without provocation while off the owner's property; or
(3) been found to be potentially dangerous, and after the owner has notice that the dog is
potentially dangerous, the dog aggressively bites, attacks, or endangers the safety of humans or
domestic animals.
The definition of substantial bodily harm is defined as follows by Minnesota Statute 347.50, subdivision
6, and Minnesota Statute 609.02, subdivision 7a:
M.S. 609.02, subdivision. 6.
23
Page 8 of 35
Substantial bodily harm. "Substantial bodily harm" has the meaning given it under section
609.02, subdivision 7a.
Minnesota Statute 609.02, subdivision 7a.
Substantial bodily harm. "Substantial bodily harm" means bodily injury which involves a
temporary but substantial disfigurement, or which causes a temporary but substantial loss or
impairment of the function of any bodily member or organ, or which causes a fracture of any
bodily member.
The first potential definition of dangerous dog is that the dog inflicted substantial bodily harm on a human
being without provocation. The bite was superficial and required no medical treatment. It is not
“substantial disfigurement” and did not cause a “substantial loss or impairment of the function of any
bodily member or organ” and did not cause any “fractures of any bodily member.”
The second potential definition involves other domestic animals, which is not applicable as no other
domestic animals were involved.
The third potential definition requires that the dog already be found to be a potentially dangerous dog and
thereafter the dog “aggressively bites, attacks, or endangers the safety of humans or domestic animals.”
What is clear from this statute is that not every bite will automatically result in a dog being properly
declared to be a dangerous dog. Rather, it is only as the result of an aggressive bite. Words have
meaning and if it were not to mean there was an additional requirement, it would just say after the dog
bites someone rather than adding the qualifier of it being an aggressive bite.
A quote from a 2014 article published in the Minnesota Bench and Bar, a magazine for lawyers, titled
“Every Dog Has Its Day – In Court” is as follows:
“Here in Minnesota, a dog that bites or attacks a person or other animal is not automatically
considered dangerous, or even potentially dangerous. The determination is based upon ow
aggressive the dog’s conduct is, where the bite or attack occurred (private versus public property),
and whether the bite or attack was provoked.”
See Exhibit 6.
Neither aggression nor “aggressively bites” is defined in the dangerous dog statutes or in the St. Anthony
Code. Thus, in construing the statutes, the words are to be construed accordingly to their common and
approved sage, but technical words and phrases as have acquired a special meaning are construed
according to special meaning or their definition. Minn. Stat. 645.08.
In the world of animal behavior, aggression has a specific, technical meaning that is separate and apart
from reactive. In brief, a leash reactive dog overly reacts to certain stimulus that frightens it, usually by
lunging or jumping as a result of only the “fight” and not the “flight” response being available since the
dog is on a leash. A reactive dog is not intending harm to anyone but the behaviors of a reactive dog may
include quick bites. On the other hand, an aggressive dog is one that is has aggressive tendencies, and is
routinely snarling and/or trying to bite others in various circumstances. There are many articles
discussing the difference, including the one enclosed. See Exhibit 7.
Based on the fact that Detective Rushton was not going to issue a dangerous dog letter until he discovered
there was an existing potentially dangerous dog letter involving Hammerheart, it is apparent that the third
24
Page 9 of 35
definition is the one that the St. Anthony Police Department as animal control officers for St. Anthony
relied upon in making its determination that a dangerous dog letter should be issued.
The dangerous dog letter states that on June 5, 2020, (which is note the correct date of the incident)
Hammerheart “suddenly and unprovoked, approached the adult male, bit and drew blood.” See Exhibit 8.
The dangerous dog letter makes no finding that it was an aggressive bite, but rather just references it as a
bite. Moreover, in the email correspondence between Meridith and Detective Rushton show that it is a
matter of course to declare a dog to be dangerous if there are two bite incidents, see Exhibit 4, regardless
of an individual appraisal of the facts of the bite to determine if the bite qualifies as an aggressive bit.
In this case, the facts demonstrate that it was not an aggressive bite. The facts that evidence it was not an
aggressive bite include, but are not necessarily limited to, the following:
First, Hammerheart has a history of being leash reactive, not aggressive.
Second, there was no snarling, raised back fur, growling, flat ears, or other behavior observed that would
indicate an aggressive intent to the incident based on the statements made to Meridith by both her sister,
Ms. Burke, and Mr. Hayden.
Third, immediately after the incident, Hammerheart was calm and made no attempts to advance towards
Mr. Hayden.
Fourth, Mr. Hayden stated in his conversation with Meridith and the enclosed statement that he at no time
felt scared or threatened during the incident; that the jump towards him appeared to be an “excited jump”;
and that after the jump and bite, Hammerheart was calm and made no further attempts to approach Mr.
Hayden. Mr. Hayden made the statement that after the incident, it looked like he could have reached out
and pet Hammerheart. Mr. Hayden walked back to Meridith’s home nest to Ms. Burke and both dogs,
and Hammerheart made no attempt to approach Mr. Hayden, whom was within the distance of his leash,
at any time.
Fifth, Hammerheart did not approach Mr. Tim Hayden. The June 11, 2020, dangerous dog letter states
that Hammerheart “approached the adult male.” Approached implies a level of intent as the dog sought
out the person in order to inflict harm. A dog whom approaches another person is more aggressive than
reactive; a reactive dog such as Hammerheart reacts to stimulus that come too close and make him
nervous. Mr. Hayden stated that the incident occurred where there was a retaining wall on the sidewalk
near Silver Lake Road and 33rd Avenue. The sidewalk is only a few feet wide there. For these reasons,
the finding in the June 11, 2020, letter that Hammeheart approached the adult male is disputed and,
moreover, appears to be arbitrary and capricious as it comports to none of the available evidence.
Sixth, while the incident was admittedly a bite based upon the statement made by Mr. Hayden and the
photographs provided, it was a shallow puncture of the skin; the teeth barely sunk into the skin. Given
the strength of a pit bull dog’s jaw, it is quite likely that Hammerheart closed down and almost
immediately released. While still serious, this demonstrates that bite inhibition was being exercised by
Hammerheart.
In conclusion, the incident occurred due to a failure by the dog owners to continue training proactively
and a failure by Ms. Burke as the dog handler to take the customary and standard precautions while
walking a leash reactive dog. It did not occur because Hammerheart was being aggressive or intending
any harm on Mr. Hayden. The bite was reactive, not aggressive. Accordingly, the definition of
dangerous dog is not satisfied and the dangerous dog declaration is erroneous.
25

The Potentially Dangerous Dog Designation May Have Been Erroneous, and the General Nature of the
Incident Should be Considered by City Council
The definition of a potentially dangerous dog is as follows pursuant to Minnesota Statute 347.50,
subdivision 3 (emphasis added):
Potentially dangerous dog. "Potentially dangerous dog" means any dog that:
(1) when unprovoked, inflicts bites on a human or domestic animal on public or private
property;
(2) when unprovoked, chases or approaches a person, including a person on a bicycle, upon the
streets, sidewalks, or any public or private property, other than the dog owner's property, in an
apparent attitude of attack; or
(3) has a known propensity, tendency, or disposition to attack unprovoked, causing injury or
otherwise threatening the safety of humans or domestic animals.
The potentially dangerous dog letter is based on the first definition of potentially dangerous dog, which
definition is specific to “bites on a human or domestic animal.”
In this case, Hammerheart bite down (in the singular) on a boot in order to hold the bicyclist there that
was chased. There was a single puncture on the boot, which is shown on the photograph. There was no
bite on a human as required under the bite provision for a potentially dangerous dog designation to be
made. It is apparent to Meridith whom observed the incident that Hammerheart chose to go after the boot
versus a leg or other body part because he was intending to hold the bicyclist, not to cause harm to the
bicyclist.
Although there is no right to appeal a potentially dangerous dog designation, we respectfully ask you to
take the facts from the first incident that gave rise to the potentially dangerous dog designation into
consideration as it is a necessary pre-requisite in this case to Hammerheart being declared a dangerous
dog and thus relevant.
Concluding Thought on Due Process
It seems that the St. Anthony Police Department treat the designation of dangerous dogs in a rather
formulaic matter that does not account for the individual circumstances. According to Officer Rushton, if
there are two bites, as a matter of practice, the Police Department will issue a dangerous dog designation.
There is no consideration for the nature of the bite – whether aggressive, provoked, or on private or public
property – all factors under the Minnesota statutory scheme. There is no one trained to evaluate a dog’s
behavior or the dog itself. This formulaic handling without considering the individual facts and
circumstances of the incident(s) seems as though it may be a deprivation of due process at the initial
declaration stage of the process in the City of St. Anthony.
This dangerous dog designation results in a particularly harsh deprivation of property rights of the dog
given the St. Anthony ordinance, which does not just restrict ownership but deprives the dog owner of
ownership either by having the dog re-homed or put down, unless the dog owner relocates to a different
city. The level of due process required, including evidence of the matter asserted, is in relation to the
property right potentially being deprived, as well as the State’s interest in the matter. We respectfully
request that that City Council, which has wide discretion to consider all facts and circumstances when
reaching its decision on this appeal, take the severity of the property right potentially being deprived and
corresponding due process obligations into consideration when considering this appeal.

Hammerheart is Not Dangerous in Light of Overall Temperament, Handling Precautions and Ongoing
Training
As discussed in detail above, we consider ourselves to be responsible dog owners that take precautions to
securely confine Hammerheart to our property and to avoid reactive incidents on walks, which is the only
time Hammerheart has shown any behaviors of concern. We will continue to take increased precautions
as discussed above. In light of Hammerheart’s overall friendly (not aggressive) temperament, the
handling precautions we take in light of his reactivity, our commitment to intensify his training, and the
nature of the two incidents which demonstrate he was not aggressive or intending harm, he is not
dangerous.
Summary & Conclusion
As responsible dog owners, we would voluntarily have him humanely euthanized if we believed he did
pose a danger. This is not just an abstract assertion or rhetoric, but demonstrated based on our past
history with dogs.
Prior to adopting Hammerheart, we fostered seven dogs through a local rescue, Secondhand Hounds. One
of the dogs we fostered was a pit bull named Tobias whom had been through approximately five adoption
returns and different fosters, due primarily to severe separation anxiety. Since Meridith works from home,
Tobias did really well with our family and was not having the signs of separation anxiety. We made the
decision to adopt Tobias. Shortly after the adoption, Tobias started to act territorial of our property in an
aggressive manner. There were signs his behavior was aggressive, including flat ears, raised scruff on his
back, growling, and snarling at people walking by the home and coming into the home. There was a
single incident in which Tobias bite an extended family member’s hand; it was a relatively minor bite.
We made the decision that day to have Tobias euthanized given his aggressive behavior and the danger it
posed. We are confident that Hammerheart does not pose a similar danger.
In conclusion, we are taking the two incidents, especially the one on May 28, 2020, seriously. The fact
that Hammerheart bite Mr. Hayden, even under the circumstances and even though a relatively minor
bite, is shocking and horrifying to us. That said, given the non-aggressive manner in which the bite
occured, it does not meet the definition of a dangerous dog and the designation of Hammerheart as a
dangerous dog should be revoked.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
June 25, 2020 David Socha /s/

TO: Mayor & Council
FROM: Mark Casey, City Manager
DATE: July 14, 2020
RE: Gifts to the City Policy
Attached is a request for a mural to be painted on the south side of the Community Center in memory of
Philando Castile. The Community Center is among the city-owned facilities that are the property of the
residents of the City of St. Anthony, and usage of those facilities is at the direction of the City Council as
the resident’s elected representatives.
The Gifts to the City Policy has been referred to in the past when the city has received requests to place
individual’s names on city buildings or parks for example. To be consistent with past practice and
following the Gifts to the City Policy, the mural request would not be allowed. Specifically, under criteria
i and j which read:
i) The City will not accept donations with conditions such as; the donor’s name or another
name designated by the donor having to appear or to be displayed somewhere in the city
such as a building, park or street, have the name of a City event designated by the donor, or
have the donation designated for a specific purpose as proposed by the donor.
j) The City’s policy is not to name facilities or events in any name other than that of the City of
St. Anthony.
There are also no facilities named after or otherwise pay tribute to an individual.
Also attached is the Gifts to the City Policy.
To whom this may concern,
On July 6th, 2016 Philando Castile was murdered by the Saint Anthony Village Police Department.
With the permission of the city council I would like to propose a mural on the Saint Anthony City
Hall/Police Department to commemorate and honor Philando Castile’s life and be a starting image of
the equity and accountability our community is pushing for. Alongside that, an everyday reminder to the
police department to hold each other accountable and strive for the change that is needed.
I will be reaching out to youth in Saint Anthony and neighboring cities to form a team of young artists to
help execute this project. In total, the team of individuals working on this mural would be around 10-20
people. We understand that the painting of this mural would occur under a global pandemic and we will
ensure to comply with Minnesota health guidelines.
We are seeking to paint the Philando Castile mural on the south-facing wall of Saint Anthony Village City
Hall that overlooks the tennis courts. This wall is an optimal location as it has no windows or other
obstacles and is in a relatively open area.
Assuming we are granted permission from Saint Anthony Village City Council on the July 14th, 2020
meeting, construction of the mural will begin within the following week. We wish to complete the mural
by the end of August to avoid conflicts with the 2020-2021 school year and colder weather.
We want to continue to honor Philando Castile’s legacy and hope to do so through a mural we are
planning in remembrance and honor of him.
The actual painting of the Philando Castile Mural will occur in three steps: drawing out an outline,
blocking in with paint, and sealing the mural with a protective sealant. We are predicting the mural will
take around 3-5 weeks to complete.
To ensure long-term care of this mural, we will apply a varnish to the finished product which ensures
protection from water, UV-rays, vandalism, and other threats. For more information about general care
for murals, we will be following this guide from Pitzer College.
Sincerely,
Semhar Solomon
