MEMORANDUM
To:Saint Anthony Village City Council
From:Charlie Yunker, City Manager
Date:May 23, 2023 City Council Meeting
Request:Approval of National Public Works Week Proclamation
BACKGROUND
Since 1960, the American Public Works Association (APWA) has sponsored National Public
Works Week across North America in effort to energize and educate the public on the
importance of public works to their daily lives. APWA is proud to announce the theme
"Connecting the World Through Public Works" for 2023 National Public Works Week.
The "Connecting the World Through Public Works" theme highlights the way public works
professionals connect us physically, through infrastructure, and inspirationally, through service
to their communities, whether as first responders, or daily workers carrying out their duties
with pride.
The Saint Anthony Village Public Works Department is a team of 14 people dedicated to serving
the community with a mission to provide effective and efficient design, construction, operation
and maintenance of the City's infrastructure.
Public Works contributes to connecting our community by providing robust infrastructure and
essential services in transportation, water, wastewater, stormwater treatment, maintenance of
parks, grounds, fleet, and facilities, support of emergency management and first response,
right-of-way management, close collaboration with engineering, and much more.
RECOMMENDATION
In recognition of the commitment of our public works staff and their efforts, the City Council is
asked to join in the designation of May 21-27, 2023 as National Public Works Week.

12
A.13 Resolution 23-029 – Denying a Request for a Vacation of An Easement and Easement
14 Agreement in the C Commercial District.
15
16 City Planner Stephen Grittman reviewed the applicants are seeking vacation of an Easement
17 Agreement originally held by the HRA, but since assigned to the City of St. Anthony Village.
18 The easement encumbers the northwest area of Hannay’s commercial property at 2550 Highway
19 88.
20
21 At the April 25 City Council Meeting a public hearing was held on the proposed easement
22 vacation, history discussed, current conditions and future prospects for the site were reviewed.
23 The Council voted 4-1 to direct staff to prepare a resolution denying the vacation, based on a
24 number of factors, including findings that the easement was purchased, rather than given to the
25 City; that the easement could still be integral in promoting its original purpose, which include
26 facilitating redevelopment and preservation of a public open space or access to the area; and that
27 losing access to the easement area at this time could preclude the objectives raised by the City’s
28 long-term plans, even if those plans may change when fully implemented.
29
30 The vote in opposition to the motion was based in support of the idea that enough time had
31 passed to believe that the easement was no longer necessary, and favored returning the use of the
32 property to the private owner.
33
34 Staff has prepared the resolution and provided it to Council for review and adoption. The
35 resolution lays out the background and findings for the City’s retention of the easement rights,
36 and denying the request for vacation.
37
38 Councilmember Jenson stated when he first read this prior to learning the City had purchased the
39 easement, his mind was changed to support the resolution.
40
41 Councilmember Walker stated from the last meeting, the fact that this was purchased, it should
42 not be deemed as unfair. It is in the best interest of the City if the ownership is retained by the
43 City.
44
45 Councilmember Randle stated he disagrees, he feels the applicant’s reasons for the request are
46 justified and we should support the request.

3 highlights some of the complex decisions the Council must make.

5 Mayor Stille stated that during a bus tour Council was encouraged to keep the corridor. He does
6 not feel a storage facility at that location is appropriate.
7
8 Motion by Councilmember Webster, seconded by Councilmember Walker, to approve
9 Resolution 23-029 a Resolution Denying a Request for a Vacation of an Easement and Easement
10 Agreement in the C, Commercial District.
11
12 Motion carried 4-1 (Randle).
13
B.14 Resolution 23-030 – Approving a Contract with the City Planner.
15
16 City Manager Yunker reviewed for the past 5 years, Steve Grittman has served as the contract
17 City Planner for the City of Saint Anthony Village, through a contractual relationship with
18 Northwest Associated Consultants, Inc. (NAC). NAC is re-ordering its work and company
19 arrangements, to become effective on June 1, 2023. NAC will continue as a company handling
20 the majority of the company’s current clients, but under new ownership.
21
22 Mr. Grittman will be transferring his ownership share to a senior staff member with the except
23 that he will retain the contracts of four current clients, one of which is Saint Anthony Village.
24 The others being Monticello, Buffalo and currently Montrose.
25
26 The change will allow relinquishing some of the other client and supervisory responsibilities, a
27 significant amount of company administration, allow him to be responsive to his retained clients
28 and shed some of the current overhead, which allows for cost efficiencies that can be passed onto
29 the City.
30
31 The contract that is attached for Council’s review, serves as Mr. Grittman’s proposal to retain
32 Saint Anthony as a client. Essentially, it creates 3 categories of work:
1.33 City-initiated routine/daily work, research, and correspondence as part of a retainer;
2.34 Privately initiated work assignable to development applications and escrows;
3.35 Non-retainer City work, which would be jointly budgeted due to the uniqueness and
36 scope of each project.
37
38 For the work under the retainer, items such as meetings, routine City correspondence and
39 ordinance/planning work that is generated and initiated by the City itself (as currently done with
40 NAC), would be covered for all related City-initiated costs. The proposed retainer level in the
41 attached contract draft is set to reflect the pattern of the last few years of City-initiated invoicing.
42 Looking back to see NAC’s City-initiated invoices to the City, they have averaged slightly more
43 than the proposed amount on an annual basis.
44
45 The second category is the work that is generated/initiated by private property
46 owners/developers, etc. who usually will have established an escrow for their inquiries and
47
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
May 9, 2023
Page 4
1 applications with the City. Mr. Grittman would continue to invoice for this work on a detailed
2 basis so the City could assign his costs to the applicant’s escrow account.
3
4 The third category is a separately budgeted set of City projects, but outside of the routine
5 correspondence, research, and inquiries. These would be projects that the City may ask him to
6 work on under either an hourly or fixed-fee amount. These are relatively rare, usually larger
7 projects, and would be negotiated as they come up.
8
9 Staff recommends approval, as Mr. Grittman has served the City very well to date, and little
10 would change from the form and substance in service to the City. To effect this change, the City
11 would cancel the agreement with NAC as of May 31, 2023, and approve a new contract with
12 Grittman Consulting, LLC effective June 1, 2023.
13
14 Councilmember Walker asked for an example of the 3rd category. Mr. Yunker stated items
15 outside the normal day-to-day duties. It would be very rare.
16
17 Councilmember Jenson asked how long the contract will last. Mr. Yunker stated it can be
18 cancelled by either party with 30 days’ notice. Mr. Grittman stated the fee structure would be
19 evaluated annually.
20
21 Councilmember Webster stated she appreciates the thoughtfulness of putting together this
22 contract.
23
24 Mayor Stille stated Mr. Grittman’s expertise is valuable to the City. St. Anthony is too small to
25 have a full time City Planner.
26
27 Motion by Councilmember Walker, seconded by Councilmember Webster, to approve
28 Resolution 23-030 a Resolution Approving a Contract with the City Planner.

Long Term Financial Management
Modified Street Improvement
results in road construction two
consecutive years then a year off.
The modified schedule reduces
reliance on bond financing while
transitioning to levy support.
Cumulative debt will decrease
significantly between 2024‐2037.
Infrastructure levy used 100% to
support street cost, Debt Levy
must support bonding costs and
interest costs in addition to
street costs.
2027‐2030 combined levy
increases will be less than the
existing plan.
Gain flexibility to adjust if other
levy demands occur.
