A.4 Resolution 23-050 – Supporting the St. Anthony – New Brighton School District 282
5 Referendum for Additional Operating Levy Authority and Renewal of the Curriculum
6 and Technology Capital Project Levy.
7
8 School Superintendent Renee Corneille stated the St. Anthony New Brighton School District
9 (SANB) will ask residents to consider two referendum questions in the November 7, 2023
10 election. These two questions are focused on SANB’s commitment to continue providing
11 rigorous and relevant instruction for all students.
12
13 St. Anthony New Brighton is proud of our small, caring school environment for both students
14 and staff. We are also thankful to our community that has historically supported our schools. In
15 2014 the community approved both an operating and capital projects levy. These voter-approved
16 levies have allowed our district to navigate consistent under funding from the state.
17
18 Ms. Corneille stated each levy question provides different but equally important resources for
19 our school district. Below is an explanation of how each question impacts our voters along with
20 how the funds support our district’s mission and vision.
21
22 Question 1: Operating Levy – This question is seeking additional authority from voters to
23 increase funding by $890 per student. If approved, the operating levy will provide $1.7M per
24 year (starting 2025) for 10 years. An operating levy will allow our district to support our staff.
25 With these funds our district can maintain our small class sizes, as well as allow us to implement
26 effective social and emotional curriculum and increase academic programs/pathways for
27 students. Schools are human enterprises. The levy revenue will allow SANB to properly
28 compensate our staff to ensure retention of our teachers. It will also allow us to recruit and hire
29 new staff dedicated to SANB’s mission to ensure academic success for all students. St. Anthony
30 – New Brighton Schools is proud to be a good steward of taxpayer dollars and is committed to
31 using funds to directly benefit our students and community. If Question 1 is approved, an
32 average St. Anthony home valued at $330,000 would see a property tax increase of $32 per
33 month.
34
35 Question 2: Renew Capital Projects Levy – The Capital Projects levy provides specific funding
36 for the tools used in the classroom to support student learning such as books, classroom
37 materials, computers, and software which is essential for students to develop 21st century skills.
38 Since the Capital Project Levy is a renewal – there will be no increase in taxes for this levy. The
39 Capital Projects levy comes from the district’s Tax Net Capacity. Question 2 is seeking a
40 renewal at the current rate of 6.198%.
41
42 Input from families, students, staff and community members there are four key areas of
43 improvement for the school district.
44
45 Elevate academic support and programs advancing future-focused learning.
46 Increase support for our teachers through professional development and coaching.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
September 26, 2023

1 Improve social-emotional learning and wellbeing for our students and staff.
2 Develop a robust recruit and retain program for high-qualified educators.
3
4 Each of these levies will help support the commitment to these community inspired areas of
5 improvement. If either of these levies do not pass, the district will be in a deficit and could lead
6 to increasing class sizes, cutting academic and social-emotional learning support, and eliminating
7 teacher/staff positions and programs for students.
8
9 Mayor Stille asked if a commercial analysis is done on the amount rent would increase. Ms.
10 Corneille stated she will share when information is available.
11
12 Motion by Councilmember Jenson, seconded by Councilmember Walker, for approval of

B.19 Resolution 23-051 – Approving a Special Event Permit at City Hall on October 15, 2033.
20
21 Thomas Brever reviewed the Council is requested to consider a resolution to approve a special
22 event permit request from St. Anthony Kiwanis to hold a fundraiser on October 15, 2023 from
23 5:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. Staff has created a special event permit to facilitate gathering event
24 information, department head reviews of event and staff recommendations to the City Council.
25 The special event permit is used if the event fits one or more of the following criteria:
26
27 Expected attendance of more than 100 people and open to the general public.
28 Event is requesting the use of city property and/or street closures.
29 There will be amplified live or pre-recorded music.
30 There will be the sale of alcoholic beverages.
31
32 The applicant is seeking permission to host an event at City Hall which will include being held
33 on City property and the sale of alcoholic beverages. Staff has reviewed the application and
34 recommends approval.

MEMORANDUM
To:City of Saint Anthony Village City Council
From:Jeremy Gumke, Public Works Director and Zach Lundberg, Public Works Superintendent
Date:October 10, 2023 City Council Meeting
Request:Silver Point Park Playground Replacement
BACKGROUND
City staff has been working on a replacement plan for the Silver Point Park playground equipment over the past
few years, and prioritized the replacement due to its age and non-compliance with current ADA standards. Most
notably being the play surface.
A few years ago, Parks & Environmental Commission (PEC) members received feedback from users of the park
regarding the playground during their annual walk-through of the parks that while the playground equipment
was well-liked, it was aging, and a desire to include a swing set was noted.
An initial replacement quote was obtained but the project did not move forward until funding was identified.
When that was ready, the vendor was unresponsive and after multiple attempts to obtain and updated quote
staff sought out another vendor and got a response from Minnesota Wisconsin Playground.
During this time the playground structure replacement was in discussion with the Commission, and two
priorities were identified to include in the new structure under the space constraints:
Accessibility over and above ADA standards
Addition of a swing set
These priorities were discussed with the vendor, and by slightly reconfiguring the trail and concrete ring, both
priorities were able to be integrated into the available space. The project also involves a different play surface to
meet accessibility standard, and be practical for the volume of storm water that the area is designed to control
in large rain events. Attached you will find the project quote, diagram and rendering of the new play structure.
At their meeting on September 18th, 2023 the Parks & Environmental Commission reviewed the structure
replacement proposal and recommended to move forward to the City Council without any changes. The PEC
noted that the replacement was needed for the community, and fully supports the replacement project.
Subsequent to the PEC meeting PEC members have informally discussed the plan with park users and feedback
has all been positive.
PROJECT COST
The cost of the new playground structure and addition of safety surfacing in place of the existing material, the
total cost of the project will be $220,500.00. This is budgeted, and to help defer some of the cost staff has
submitted a grant, which is in process, and PEC members are also assisting in pursuing additional grant funds.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff and the Parks & Environmental Commission is recommending approval of the project

Project Scope:
Please note, installation is based on site being ready prior to our arrival to install play equipment as well as site conditions that have been conveyed
to our organization by the owner/owner's representative and/or ideal conditions existing for a timely completion of your project as quoted. Unless
addressed prior to the installation quote being issued or specifically mentioned herein, any issues that arise that impede the progress/completion of
your project as quoted will result in additional charges.
Weather can change project scheduling in many ways. Take rain for an example. Day, or days, before rain... If weather forecasts show a high
percentage chance for rain that will effect the site conditions, a postponement may be in order. Digging holes, laying certain surfacing materials,
etc., are greatly affected by weather conditions and work may not begin/continue due to weather forecasts. There's the rain days themselves, which
if heavy enough rainfall occurs, makes a site unworkable. Day, or days, after rain... Drying time will be needed after rain and the number of days
needed will vary depending on amount of moisture received. One actual rain day may equal multiple delay days depending on work scheduled to
be done.

- Permits of any kind
- Prevailing, Davis Bacon, Union, or similar, wages
- Restroom facilities. Please provide access to restrooms whether within a building or portable style. Should use of site facilities not be available,
additional charges will be required to bring on site temporary/portable restrooms. These temporary facilities will be removed once your project has
been completed.
- Short term maintenance, check manufacturer's owner's manual recommendations for maintenance and always follow these written instructions.
To help set up short (and ongoing) term maintenance, use the first twelve months to regularly check equipment (such as, but not limited to,
tightening hardware, checking moving features, etc.). Twelve months allows use in all seasons and will provide a better understanding of what will
be necessary for your ongoing maintenance. This short term schedule will be based on the amount of use the play equipment is getting as well as
the type of play event that is being played on. Activities with movement have a more dynamic play which can lead to more maintenance due to the
nature of the motion but also because these types of play events tend to be more popular. Static features may require less attention during the
short term and ongoing maintenance as inspections will determine frequency of maintenance needed for these events. There may be a need for
scheduled lower and higher frequency inspections.
- Ongoing maintenance, check manufacturer's owner's manual recommendations for maintenance and always follow these written instructions.
After short term maintenance period is done and data is collected for that time period, an ongoing schedule should be implemented. The ongoing
maintenance can change with age and greater use. There may be a need for scheduled lower and higher frequency inspections.
Should weekend work be necessary or non-standard hours be worked, please provide a site contact and the best telephone number to reach this
person in case an urgent matter arises requiring immediate attention.

MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor Stille and St. Anthony Village City Council
From: Stephen Grittman, City Planner
Date: October 5, 2023
Meeting Date: October 10, 2023
RE: St. Anthony – Cannabis Use on Public Property
GC Project No. 140.00
BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION
As discussed at a recent work session, staff was directed to develop ordinance limitations for
cannabis use on public property. The prior Council action on a moratorium ordinance related
to businesses involved in cannabis manufacture, distribution, and sales. Parallel to the 2023
Legislature’s passage of a series of laws opening the state to “Adult -Use Cannabis” and the
business aspects of the cannabis industry, the legislature also created an allowance for aspects
of private possession and use. These aspects include:
• The allowance of cannabis for personal use on private property;
• Limited possession for personal use; and
• The growing of a limited amount of cannabis plants on one’s private property.
• Prohibition of cannabis use (including smoking and vaping) that would be inconsistent
with the restrictions of the Minnesota Clean Indoor Air Act – that is, the act that
regulates tobacco smoking in indoor spaces.
• Prohibition of cannabis use in public places that are likely to be frequented by children.
This prohibition includes school grounds, parks that have playground -type facilities, or
similar locations.
Left unlegislated was the use of cannabis – effectively smoking of marijuana – in many public
places. Various communities have been adopted a wide array of prohibitions on public use,
ranging from specifically City-owned property, to public trails and sidewalks, to private property
that is typically open to the public – such as areas near commercial building entrances,
restaurant outdoor patios, and multi-family building common areas.
City Council Meeting - October 10, 2023
Page 2
There are other statutory restrictions, including a prohibition of driving or use while driving
(similar to the “open container” prohibition on alcoh ol).
PUBLIC CANNABIS USE.
The focus of this report and draft ordinance addresses the aspects of the statute that are
permissive (neither prohibited or required to be permitted) - the use of cannabis on public
property that is not a street or a school. Examples would be in public parks or on public
sidewalks.
The Code Committee discussed the code impacts of the issue, and identified two options for
addressing cannabis use in public places. The first was a “public intoxication” approach, which
compared public cannabis use to public alcohol consumption. While there are similarities
based on public behaviors, there are a number of issues with both that make enforcement
difficult – particularly since edibles will be an aspect of cannabis consumption (and are already
allowed for Hemp-THC products.
The alternative approach was a “public nuisance” aspect, in which the outward impacts of
cannabis smoking could raise issues for nearby members of the public. This approach
incorporates the larger issue of tobacco smoking in public places (see below for additional
discussion). In sum, the Code Committee recommended following this nuisance approach as
being more tangible and enforceable.
From the League of Minnesota Cities FAQ on Adult Use Cannabis:
Q32. Can our city ban the smoking of cannabis in public places?
A32. A city may adopt an ordinance establishing a petty misdemeanor offense for
a person who unlawfully uses cannabis flower, cannabis products, lower-potency
hemp edibles, or hemp-derived consumer products in a public place other than
the following:
• A private residence including the person’s curtilage or yard.
• Private property not generally accessible by the public, unless the person is
explicitly prohibited from consuming cannabis flower, cannabis products, lower-
potency hemp edibles, or hemp-derived consumer products on the property by the
owner of the property.
• The premises of an establishment or event licensed to permit on-site
consumption.
In addition, under the Minnesota Clear Indoor Air Act, cities are authorized to
adopt more stringent regulations on smoking to protect individuals from
secondhand smoke or from involuntary exposure to aerosol or vapor from
electronic smoking devices. Cities have used this authority to prohibit smoking of
City Council Meeting - October 10, 2023
Page 3
tobacco products in public areas including parks, distances from business
entrances, and outdoor restaurant patios. This same authority could be used to
prohibit the smoking of cannabis in those areas.
Cities should check their ordinances to determine if a prohibition on smoking
tobacco products in public places would also apply to cannabis products.
Discussion
The Council is asked to consider the issue of cannabis use in the public spaces noted above.
The prohibition requirements for USE in other public spaces is optional as noted, and would
presumably expand on the spacing requirements of the “sensitive” land use categories.
Several cities are adopting ordinance that create, or extend, a prohibition of tobacco use in
these areas, as a companion action to controlling cannabis use in public areas.
Currently, smoking or vaping of tobacco products is not banned by the City in public open
spaces. Under Section 111.059 of the City Code, smoking is banned in indoor spaces, as the
definition of Public Place is specific to confined areas within buildings . Schools are customarily
tobacco free, but other public park or sidewalk spaces are not restricted. Consumption of
alcohol is typically not permitted in public spaces, with exceptions for special event licenses
issued specifically for those locations and purposes.
Section 111.045 of the City Code defines smoking as follows:
PUBLIC PLACE. Any enclosed, indoor area used by the general public, including, but
not limited to, restaurants; banks; bars; any other food or liquor establishment; hotels and
motels; reception areas; retail establishments and other commercial establishments;
shopping malls; educational facilities; hospitals; nursing homes; auditoriums; arenas;
meeting rooms; waiting rooms; government buildings; and common areas of rental
apartment buildings.
SMOKING. Inhaling, exhaling, burning, or carrying any lighted or heated cigar,
cigarette, or pipe, or any other lighted or heated product containing, made, or derived
from nicotine, tobacco, marijuana, or other plant, whether natural or synthetic, that is
intended for inhalation. Smoking also includes carrying or using an activated electronic
delivery device.
Section 111.059 prohibits “smoking” in public as follows:
§ 111.059 SMOKING PROHIBITED. Smoking is prohibited, and no person shall
smoke in a public place, at a public meeting, in a place of employment, or in public
transportation.
City Council Meeting - October 10, 2023
Page 4
Thus, as currently written, the City Code prohibits the smoking or vaping of marijuana in indoor
spaces used by the public (basically an extension of the Clean Indoor Air Act).
Extending the prohibition of marijuana smoking to outdoor spaces requires a definition of
which outdoor spaces would be included, and which wou ld not be. As discussed by the Code
Committee, a nuisance-based approach would assume that the City would also extend a
prohibition on tobacco smoking in those spaces.
An “intoxication” based approach would presumably follow the general Minnesota statut ory
prohibition on public alcohol consumption, which generally prohibits open container
consumption in public, except where specifically licensed. Currently, only the City of Anoka –
under special legislation this year, has a “Social Zone” where individuals can drink alcohol in
public.
The attached ordinance follows the nuisance approach, which would prohibit smoking in
specific public places, including all City and County parks; parking lots adjacent to such parks;
trails within City parks; on the main city campus - including City Hall and fire station; on other
City-owned property including the Public Works maintenance facility; and adjacent parking lots
to each of these facilities.
Omitted from this prohibition would be other public areas, such as publi c sidewalks, or trails
that are not within City parks.
This ordinance is drawn from Roseville’s recently adopted ordinance. For most of the
surrounding cities and agencies that have adopted prohibitions, these areas are uniformly
included. Some communities have gone further, as summarized in the table on the following
page.
As a final note, the City currently prohibits alcohol consumption in public parks, except by
special license – the regulations for the applicable license are in Chapter 93 of the City Code,
“Parks and Recreation”. The City is required, under the new law, to accommodate “Cannabis
Events” as defined and regulated in the statute. The City can require City licensing of these
events. The City is not required, however, to permit these events on public property.
“Cannabis Events” can be operated for the purposes of promoting the cannabis industry, and
the City can choose to allow or prohibit consumption at those events, apparently even if they
are conducted on private property. The proposed ordinance would prohibit consumption at
the event if the City licenses it for a city property such as park or community center. Additional
study and consideration of this aspect of the law will be necessary.

Summary and Council Action
As highlighted above, the attached ordinance follows the “nuisance” approach to the smoking
issue, prohibiting cannabis use in specific public spaces, and incorporates a companion
prohibition of tobacco smoking in those same spaces. This expands the City’s current
regulation of tobacco smoking from indoor spaces to those identified outdoor spaces. The
ordinance refrains from expanding the prohibition to all outdoor public spaces, such as public
sidewalks along roadways, etc. Tobacco and cannabis smoking would be legal in these
locations, although alcohol use in those areas would continue to be prohibited by state law. It
further refrains from extending the prohibition to privately -owned quasi-public spaces (such as
restaurant patios) as some communities have done. Of course, the individual property owner
has the right to prohibit smoking – tobacco and/or cannabis - on its own property.
Council Action:
If the Council agrees with the approach and scope, staff recommends adoption of the attached
Ordinance 2023-06

MEMORANDUM
To:City of Saint Anthony Village City Council
From:Jeremy Gumke, Public Works Director and Zach Lundberg, Public Works Superintendent
Date:October 10, 2023 City Council Meeting
Request:Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan – Informational Review
BACKGROUND
City staff has been working with the city engineering firm WSB, to compile an Emerald Ash Borer (EAB)
Management Plan. Staff received the final version very recently, and will be utilizing the information and
recommendations to guide routine operations and project prioritization going forward.
The objective behind drafting the plan is to inform the City’s EAB efforts from best practices over the coming 5-
10 year timeframe. Having a plan in place also makes the City eligible for grant funding for EAB management.
For example, the City recently was awarded a grant from Hennepin County for tree removals and replacements.
The project submitted was for removals and stump grindings by a contractor, as well as replacement trees for
our Public Works staff to install at around 20 locations in the Hennepin County portion of the city on city
property, or within city right-of-way. The total value of the project is $28,040, with the city being responsible for
matching 25%, or $7,010.
Staff is presented this plan to the Parks & Environmental Commission for review at their September 18, 2023
meeting. The commission asked if a contractor could be identified to provide a discounted rate for property
owners to treat and manage privately-owned trees. Staff is working with WSB to explore options.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
No staff recommendation is offered as this is presented to the Council for informational purposes to be utilized
for future policy discussions as the Council desires

1.0 Purpose
The purpose of the St. Anthony Village Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan is to
minimize and spread out the significant fiscal and environmental impacts of emerald
ash borer (EAB) and to describe the approach the City is taking. The loss of public
and private ash trees in St. Anthony Village will influence home values, quality of life
and the environment over decades. The most effective way to handle the EAB in St.
Anthony Village will require a mixed approach including tree preservation by
injection, ash tree and stump removals, replanting, and adding additional resources
to assist with handling the pest in a systematic way. The City has already been very
successful in applying for and leveraging both Hennepin County and Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources grants to manage EAB and reduce budget pressure
on St. Anthony Village .
Trees serve as part of the City’s green infrastructure: they clean the air, slow down
and absorb stormwater, reduce erosion, save electricity by reducing air conditioning
costs, enhance property values and provide habitat for wildlife. One figure provided
by the Minnesota Shade Tree Advisory Council (MnSTAC) states the loss of all urban
ash trees in the state will lead to 1.7 billion gallons of water entering our stormwater
systems annually. A structured approach to managing the City’s ash population will
distribute the impacts over 10 years and help ensure an orderly response while
maintaining as many tree benefits as possible. The City’s plan is guided by the best
management practices issued by the top three agencies researching and managing
EAB in the state: the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, the Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources, and the University of Minnesota. Since research
is ongoing, management practices will be modified if new strategies are
recommended.

2.0 Introduction
EAB (Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire ) is a non-native invasive wood boring beetle with
larvae that tunnel under the bark in the living tissue, disrupting the tree’s ability to
transport water and nutrients. It was first detected in Detroit, Michigan in 2002, most
likely introduced to North America on wood packing materials originating from Asia.
Scientists believe it could have been introduced as early as 1990, so the insect had
over ten years to build its population without any proactive management in that area.
Since that time, EAB has spread to at least 35 states and 6 Canadian provinces.
Emerald ash borer has killed hundreds of millions of ash trees where it becomes
established.
The USDA Forest Service EAB website states “…emerald ash borer is the most
destructive invasive forest insect ever to have invaded North America.” Ash trees
were frequently the default replacement for elm trees lost to Dutch elm disease in
the late 1970’s and 80s. They traditionally survive in soil conditions that many other
trees cannot and are selected for difficult growing sites.
Map 1: USDA Approximate Range of Ash Species in the Continuous
United States with EAB Positives, March 2023
According to the state’s Department of Natural Resources, Minnesota has 2.65
million ash trees in communities, and about 1.1 billion ash trees in total growing in
forests and communities, the most of any state in the country. An organized and
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan

systematic approach helps distribute the impacts and ensures an orderly response
while maintaining as many tree benefits as possible for the community.
Map 2: Status of EAB in Minnesota According to the MN
Department of Agriculture
*Green indicates generally infested, red shows quarantined counties
EAB was first detected in Minnesota in 2009 within the City of St. Paul. Fourteen
years since the first detection in the state, it has reached a critical state in the Twin
Cities metropolitan area. The insect tends to follow an exponential curve; as the
beetle population increases, ash tree death also accelerates. Beyond existing as a
threat to forest health and canopy cover, emerald ash borer creates a significant
public safety issue. The insect damage accelerates the wood drying that would
normally happen as a tree dies, and due to the wood properties of ash, the infested
trees become extremely brittle.
As trees become more dangerous to remove, there are fewer options for safe
removal by appropriately trained staff and contractors. This is a relevant issue for
private property tree owners in addition to the City. There is a direct relationship
between the risk associated with removing a tree and the cost when contractors are
hired to remove an infested tree. As the EAB population builds in a community, tree
death increases and accelerates, often referred to as the “death curve” because it is
an exponential relationship. Although it is not currently possible to eradicate EAB
once found, there are research-based control measures that can slow and flatten out
the “curve” to spread tree losses and costs over time, which will be proposed for
implementation in the plan.

3.0 Emerald Ash Borer Biology
Ash trees are killed when EAB larvae (the immature stage) feeds under the bark of
ash trees, disrupting the tree’s ability to transport water and nutrients throughout the
tree. The feeding creates the iconic S-shaped galleries underneath the bark. The
adults feed on ash leaves but are not the primary driver of tree mortality. Due to its
small size, and its inconspicuous location under the bark, it can be difficult to detect
in the early stages and typically infests a tree for three to five years before visible
signs and symptoms appear. During that time, one generation of beetles can emerge
from an infested tree each year and fly to nearby ash trees.
The emerald ash borer adult is very small from 3/8-1/2 inches long, and the
immature stage (larvae) is about one inch long.
Emerald ash borer spreads about one to two miles per year, which is the average
flight distance of an adult beetle.
The insect has spread faster than one to two miles per year due to human movement
of firewood, nursery stock and other ash products.

4.0 Current EAB Status in City of St. Anthony Village
EAB was first detected in St. Anthony Village in 2016; however, was likely here
earlier but at levels too low to visually detect. The City of St. Anthony Village is a
first-ring suburb of Minneapolis, Minnesota encompassing about 2.35 square miles,
with 24.5 miles of City streets, with a population of 9,257 residents. St. Anthony
Village has 6 parks and 5 City-owned facilities. It is b ordered by Minneapolis, St.
Paul, New Brighton, Roseville and is split between two counties: Hennepin and
Ramsey. St. Anthony, also affectionately called "The Village" by locals, is known for
its small-town feel in the heart of the Twin Cities metro area. Both new and long-time
residents take a great deal of pride in the community, which is rich with history.
The City is located within the Minnesota Department of Agriculture’s “generally
infested area” (Map 3) within the Twin Cities, meaning most ash trees have some
level of EAB infestation. Another way to interpret “generally infested” is that if an
ash tree has not been injected to protect it from EAB, there is likely some level of
infestation in the tree, whether you can detect it visually or not. When EAB levels
are low within a tree, it can be hard to detect it by a visual inspection.
When driving through the community, dying ash are prevalent on private
property and public property. St. Anthony Village has been experiencing a sharp
upward trajectory on the “EAB death curve” for several years.

5.0 Tree Inventory and Ash Population
When WSB began the project, St. Anthony public works staff had already hired a
local non-profit organization to start a complete boulevard and City property (public)
tree inventory with a grant award from Hennepin County. The results revealed that
ash trees account for about 8 percent of the total tree species composition on
City property. WSB’s first step was to analyze the in-progress ash tree inventory
data to determine the total number of ash and quickly assess if any of the condition
ratings were high enough to merit protection with a systemic insecticide. The
analysis revealed that about 20 percent of the village’s inventoried ash met the size
and condition ratings to be preserved.
Each ash tree was assigned a condition rating of “dead, poor, fair, good or excellent”
by the City’s inventory contractor. The ratings consider tree health such as evidence
of EAB, but also physical condition such as branch structure, presence of decay,
wounds, presence of stem-girdling roots and more.

Some of the relevant findings related to the inventory are:
There are 184 ash trees located on boulevards (public right-of-way) and
maintained public spaces such as parks.
There are 92 Dead/Poor condition ash trees and 92 Fair/Good/Excellent ash
trees.
The 10 most planted public tree types (genus) represent about 81% of all
trees in City of St. Anthony Village’s boulevards and parks/facilities.
The detailed i-Tree Ecosystem Analysis (Urban Forest Effects and Values)
from July 2021 by Tree Trust for the St. Anthony Village Tree Inventory is

Within the last year, St. Anthony Village has leveraged grant dollars, and a
Forestry-assigned AmeriCorps member to implement tree status updates in the
field with a new online mapping system called ArcGIS Online. This will help
ensure the data stays updated as crews and contractors remove, prune, inject
or plant trees.
6.0 Program Administration and Impact
The Public Works Department encompasses five divisions (streets, utilities, parks,
fleet maintenance, and engineering) and will take the lead role to implement the EAB
plan and associated program. Staff will work collaboratively to implement public
education, outreach, and the best management practices (BMPs) to handle emerald
ash borer and ash trees throughout St. Anthony Village. The Public Works
Superintendent position will serve as the primary point person for EAB questions,
concerns, and plan implementation (along with many other duties).
Implementing the EAB management plan will spread out the financial and staffing
requirements over a ten-year period but will still require additional City resources.
EAB management has financial and other implications that exceed the City’s current
Public Works budget allocations.

7.0 Public Outreach and Education
The City of St. Anthony Village has been a member of Tree City USA for five
consecutive years and has made many advances in communicating information about
EAB and forestry-related issues in general. There has been an effort to produce
content for the City newsletter, create a tree contractor list for residents, and a
series of FAQs for staff to better answer the public’s questions about ash injections
on public property. In 2022, Staff also applied for a Community Forestry Member
(AmeriCorps) and were awarded a member in 2023. The member had several
forestry-related roles, but one was answering homeowner questions related to EAB.
Education and empowering the public to act on their property is important due to the
number of ash trees that are planted on private property, which are part of the
overall community forest providing ecosystem services (or creating a tree-risk
situation) for St. Anthony Village residents.
Methods that will be used to expand communication on EAB and the City’s plan
include:
City newsletter articles (Village Notes)
Website
Social media
Public meetings
Staff outreach at City events
Staff/Intern/AmeriCorps provided informal education via resident phone calls
or public tree inspection.
8.0 Management of Public Ash Trees with Best Management Practices (BMPs)
When EAB was first found in Michigan, several management strategies were
attempted and failed. Since that time, several research-informed strategies have
emerged and are now industry accepted best management practices (BMPs) for
reducing the costs and preserving tree value during the peak of EAB infestation.
Minnesota has benefitted from the early research, and as a result, done better than
many of the initially infested states due to aggressive management, education,
outreach, quarantines, sanitation, and cold weather.

EAB by Years of Infestation
There are several well-recognized BMPs that will help space out City funding
dedicated to the mitigation efforts over time, preserve public safety, tree
benefits, and aesthetics. In summary, these are the most powerful BMPs that St.
Anthony Village will utilize:
Proactively monitor and inspect for the pest on City property.
Use trunk-injected insecticide (emamectin benzoate or similar formulations) to
preserve high value public ash trees and suppress the EAB population.
Encourage private (non-City) property owners to treat any high-value “good”
and “fair” condition ash so they can continue to provide benefits to the
community.
Encourage private (non-City) property owners to continue to treat their high
value ash every 2 years so they can continue to provide benefits to the
community.
Engage in structured removals of dead/poor/fair condition ash trees and those
too small to inject (less than 10”DBH) on public property and remove EAB
infested trees when they are found.
This section describes each of these management practices accepted by the three
main agencies researching EAB in Minnesota and how they apply to the City of St.
Anthony Village.
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 11
8.1 Monitoring and Inspection (Best Management Practice #1)
The most efficient way to detect EAB in a tree is visual inspection for woodpecker
activity in the mid-to-upper canopy of ash trees during the winter months when
leaves are off the tree.
Woodpeckers fleck off the outer darker bark while looking for EAB larvae. As
the woodpecker works, the inner, lighter bark is exposed, referred to as
“blonding” and dime sized oval holes appear along branches.
February/March is the most prolific time for woodpecker activity, making it
even easier to identify infested ash trees. Many of the woodpecker holes
reveal galleries that can be seen from the ground.
Since infestation levels are high, and there are many standing dead trees,
the City should shift to year-round surveying and inspecting to keep up
with the volume of trees showing woodpecker activity indicating EAB.
8.2 Insecticide Use (Best Management Practice #2)
I dentifying ash trees that can be preserved with insecticides is an important step to
halt any further EAB-driven ash mortality within the community. Insecticides are very
effective in controlling insect populations when they are applied appropriately at the
correct time of year in the appropriate dose (rate). There are several insecticides
that are registered to kill EAB in ash trees. The method advocated by the City is
the trunk injection of emamectin benzoate using the current industry standard
injection system that has efficacy data supporting its use on trees ten inches
or greater in diameter (DBH).
Table 3: Public Ash Trees Eligible for Injection
Condition Number of
Ash Trees
Number of
DBH inches
Excellent/Good/Fair
Condition 37 738
The City of St. Anthony Village has a list of approximately 37 ash trees
that have been injected since 2022 in parks and facilities. The average
diameter of an ash tree protected with injections is 20 inches in diameter.
All of the injected ash trees were infested with EAB to some degree, many
showing some dead branches. Ash that retain the majority of their canopy
after injection will be pruned to remove deadwood as needed. If they continue
to improve in condition; injections will continue every two years to retain the
tree benefits and ecosystem services.
According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service
EAB website in February 2018, emamectin benzoate was “…found to be the most
effective product and provided two to three years of nearly complete EAB control. All
EAB adults fed leaves from trees treated with emamectin benzoate died within four
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 12
days and larval densities were reduced by 99 percent compared to untreated trees”.
The insecticide is toxic to EAB larvae and adults upon ingestion.

November 2022
The applied injection is systemic, so the tree takes up the insecticide in its
xylem tissues (water conducting system).
The insecticide is injected where the root system and trunk interface, is pulled
upward by the tree, spreads through the canopy in all the fine branches and
can be detected inside the tree tissues and leaves.
The insecticide has a two-year efficacy period, with early research indicating
it might be possible to stretch treatments to every three years.
According to a handout created by the University of Minnesota and two other
universities detailing Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Potential Side Effects
of Systemic Insecticides Used to Control EAB , emamectin benzoate is “…derived
from a naturally occurring soil bacterium, has been registered for more than ten
years as a foliar spray to control pests in vegetable and cotton fields…and similar
products are used in veterinary medicine as wormers for dogs, horses and other
animals.”
The trunk injection can be performed on a tree 8-10 times (20-year time period) for
the price it would cost to:
Remove the tree
Grind the stump
Replace the tree
At the end of the 20-year treatment cycle, a tree and all its ecosystem services
and benefits to the community have been preserved.
The average stem diameter (DBH) of St. Anthony Village public trees
slated for protection is about 20” or about 80 years old, planted in 1943.
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 13
Average age estimates can be completed by multiplying an “age factor”
by the tree’s DBH. A green ash’s age factor is 4 (Morton Arboretum).
According to the USDA Forest Service’s i-Tree “My Tree” application, one 20”
diameter ash tree in good condition growing in the City of St. Anthony Village
produces myriad benefits to the community that can be quantified and
measured (itreetools.org).
Table 4: Tree Benefits from a 20” Diameter Good Condition Ash Tree over 20
Years
The benefits include reductions in stormwater, electricity, natural gas, and uptake of
carbon dioxide along with improved air quality, and property values. When there are
thousands of ash trees lost in a community on public and private land during a short
period of time before a canopy can rebound, the lost benefits can compound.
One example of that effect occurred in one of the first communities hit by EAB in
Westland, Michigan. According to a study by Deborah McCollough published in the
January-March 2012 International Journal of Pest Management ; the removal of
Westland’s 3,000 municipal ash trees killed by EAB “led to a 33 percent increase in
outdoor water consumption, which subsequently caused the regional water authority
to levy a 10 percent surcharge on the City.”
In summary, the trunk injection of emamectin benzoate is preferred to other trunk
injections, spray, or soil-applied insecticides because:

It can be done every-other year.
It is a restricted-use pesticide so only state licensed pesticide applicators can
use it.
The insecticide is injected inside the tree, reducing the chance that children,
pets or other wildlife will encounter it while playing in a yard or park.
Since it is inside the tree, it would not runoff in the soil or overland to lakes,
creeks, or other water bodies.
Many cities use trunk (stem) injected emamectin benzoate to:
Preserve high-value good condition trees on a 20-year plan (10 injections).
Preserve fair condition trees that are providing a unique aesthetic to a street
corridor, or park where other trees would be hard to establish.
Stage tree removals in parks or boulevards by keeping primarily good
condition ash trees from dying and becoming hazardous while cities move
through a structured removal plan.
Encourage property owners and other non-city properties including
commercial, high-density housing and school districts to preserve their ash
trees and slow down widespread tree mortality, canopy loss, and wood-waste
production at least until newly planted trees can establish.
8.3 Ash Tree Removal (Best Management Practice #3)
It is a best-management practice (BMP) to remove ash trees that are infested with
EAB during the next possible non-flight (dormant) time of October-April to eliminate
a hazardous tree condition. Fall and winter is also an ideal time of removal to avoid
damaging migratory bird nests and bat habitat. However, if the tree is imminently
hazardous to the public, it should be removed as soon as possible.

In a 2021/2022 EAB update, the MN Department of Agriculture Plant
Protection Division updated their ash tree removal guidance for the Twin
Cities: Dormant season-only ash removals will not slow the spread of EAB
within the region, permitting communities to perform year-round ash
removals if necessary to control the number of dead/dying ash. It is
important to note that the BMP is still to remove ash trees in October-April,
but if City resources are limited, and year-round removals are needed to
protect public safety, then communities should do so. Removing ash trees
year-round as needed can be logistically helpful for in-house crews instead of
winter-only (dormant season) removals that often compete with winter snow
plowing duties.
Ash removals in sensitive natural resource corridors along wetlands and
larger contiguous woodlands may be subject to the Migratory Bird Treaty Act
(MBTA) and newer northern long-eared bat regulations. These regulations
require specifically time removals and/or surveys to ensure “taking” of these
species does not inadvertently occur during tree removal.
In adopting this plan, City staff will be marking and removing ash in a series of ash
reduction programs:
1. Proactive Structured Ash Removal
2. EAB Infested Ash Removal for Sanitation and Hazard Prevention – City
Property
3. EAB Infested Ash Removal for Hazard Prevention – Private Property
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 16
8.3.1 Proactive Structured Ash Removal
Proactive structured ash removal is a program that removes trees that may
not yet be infested on City boulevards and maintained public properties. The
purpose of this BMP is to spread out the cost and number of removals instead
of waiting for them to die, overwhelming City crews and budgets. Trees are
usually selected geographically, in groups, which can save on mobilization
costs and travel time.
The trees that meet the structured removal criteria would be smaller than
ten inches in diameter (ineligible to inject), in conflict with infrastructure,
or in dead, poor or fair condition with significant structural defects.
The City will utilize St. Anthony Village Public Works Staff to remove
smaller trees as much as possible to reduce costs for the program. The
number of in-house ash removals will vary from year-to-year due to other
staff responsibilities such as snow plowing and street work.
It is important to note here that the current ash inventory
encompasses only trees in boulevards (rights-of-way), and mowed,
maintained public property. There will be more ash to address in
wooded natural areas adjacent to public trails, streets, and private
properties that have been uncounted..
Since trees are living, dynamic organisms, they change over time, so some
trees originally slated for injection may be moved to the “remove” list if they
succumb to storm damage or otherwise become less desirable to treat due to
EAB or other variables. These numbers provide a baseline to work from.
8.3.2 EAB Infested Ash Removal for Sanitation and Hazard
Prevention – City Property
The City will be monitored and inspected throughout the year for EAB infested
ash trees on public property. Infested trees will be marked and removed by
City staff or contractors as budget permits. Most of the poor and fair condition
trees are showing signs of woodpecker activity. The table below suggests
recommended minimum targets to remove all the dead, poor and fair
condition trees (that are not eligible for injection). In 2023-2024 all dead
and poor trees should be removed. Years 2025-2027 should be focused on
removal of the fair condition trees that are not being injected. Trees in
high-use areas of parks and boulevards will be prioritized for removal
first to reduce public risk due to hazardous tree conditions.

Figure 3: Ash Tree Diameter Inches by Condition on Public Property
Infested trees on edges of unmaintained natural City outlots, conservation
areas, and open space will be removed at the discretion of City Staff to follow
best-management practices (BMPs) within budget and time constraints.
In general, infested trees found in wooded City lots or that will not
impact public safety or an adjacent private property will not be
removed. The reason for this is twofold: damage to adjacent natural
resources often exceeds the overall environmental benefits of

removal, and the costs and staff time associated with the volume of
removals will likely exceed budget constraints.
USDA Forest Service research has indicated “thinning” woodlands of ash
does not “slow the spread” of EAB and instead kills any remaining ash
trees in woodlands faster due to less ash material being present.
If an ash tree becomes infested within a City owned natural area, City staff
will evaluate if removal is necessary for safety.
o This practice does not provide optimum sanitation to reduce EAB but
acknowledges the reality of staff and budget constraints and places a
realistic focus on those trees will most impact public safety.
Ash tree mature heights range from 65-80 feet tall. Field Staff will
determine if an infested ash tree would qualify for removal.
8.3.3 EAB Infested Ash Removal for Hazard Prevention –
Private Property
Currently, the City of St. Anthony Village does not have an estimate of the
number of ash trees growing on private property and does not plan to
proactively inspect or identify infested trees unless they are on public
property. A private-property code enforcement program takes an enormous
amount of staff time and resources. City Staff will continue to provide
education and outreach to the community, as well as answer calls and emails
from individual residents.
In some instances, however, dying private property ash trees may impact
public streets, trails, parking lots, and parks due to their proximity. In those
instances, the City may declare the ash tree a “nuisance” requiring
abatement. Abatement measures would include tree removal and appropriate
disposal of wood. Stump grinding is not required to abate the safety risk.
The ability to require removal of a tree that is posing a risk to a public
space as noted in St. Anthony Village City Code Chapter 92: HEALTH
AND SAFETY; NUISANCES.
Although the City of St. Anthony Village will not require residents to remove
infested ash trees unless they are an immediate risk to public spaces, it will
still be a sizable burden for residents to handle EAB on their property.
Ash trees have already started dying in large cohorts, which often leads to a
greater number of email and phone call complaints to City staff. In some
cities, there is a formal process to assist fixed-income or in-need residents in
removing trees that are a risk to their home or public property.
A program to consider implementing is a nuisance abatement program or other
agreement which would authorize the City to send their designated contractor
to remove an infested tree (or any dead/high risk tree) if the property owner
communicated an inability to remove the tree that is creating a public safety
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 19
risk. This type of program would be useful in situations where an individual
loses a job, experiences a death in the family, or for an individual on a fixed-
income due to retirement status or disability. Occasionally, the sheer number
of ash trees planted on a single-family lot creates an enormous financial
burden – where treatment or removal are both out of reach for the property
owner.
9.0 Ash Wood Disposal
The strategies used to dispose of ash wood must meet the current Minnesota
Department of Agriculture (MDA) quarantines, which are established by county.
Ramsey and Hennepin Counties are both under a quarantine. The quarantine allows
movement of wood within other quarantined counties, but prohibits removing any of
the following from a quarantined county into a non-quarantined county:
The emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis ),
Ash trees (Fraxinus spp.), ash limbs and branches, ash stumps and roots, ash
logs, ash lumber, ash chips, ash bark chips, and
Firewood of any hardwood (deciduous) species.
Wood and wood chips from tree removals and pruning by City Staff is being
deposited at XXXX. St. Anthony Village residents are also encouraged to dispose of
wood at XXXX. If wood is being chipped, it must be chipped into 1-inch by 1-inch
sections to kill larvae and prevent them from maturing. When hauled to a wood
tipping site, it is often double ground and heat-treated for mulch, or burned for
energy. Currently, the State of Minnesota does not have a uniform and organized
wood disposal strategy and there are significant concerns about the volume of wood
that EAB will produce in the next ten years. There are also concerns about the
increase in wood tipping fees that are paid by tree contractors, and the few locations
that are equipped to accept and utilize ash wood. Keeping ash wood out of the waste
stream is another benefit to preserving ash by injection.
10.0 Reforestation and Canopy Replacement
According to the Growing Shade Tool, produced by the Metropolitan Council in 2021,
the City of St. Anthony Village’s tree canopy cover is 33.7 percent. The remaining 66
percent of St. Anthony Village includes cover types such as water, grass/forb, and
impervious surfaces such as homes, parking lots and streets.
Other cities and townships across the Twin Cities region average 27.8 percent
tree canopy cover. While St. Anthony Village is above average in canopy
coverage, the goal for most cities is to have an average of 45 percent tree
canopy coverage so increasing that percentage over time should be a priority
that could tie in with Green Steps Cities or other sustainability goals (Growing
Shade Tool, Metropolitan Council).
Additionally, the 33.7 percent canopy cover is an average; there are some areas
of the City that are lower, and others that are higher. Using the data provided
by the Growing Shade tool could serve as a start for prioritizing replanting
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 20
efforts to improve the heat-island effects of too much pavement and not enough
shade, and ensure trees are being planted equitably.
Nationally, tree canopies tend to be higher in areas of wealth. Trees provide
dynamic benefits to the community, and planting with an environmental justice
lens can help ensure those benefits are experienced by all.

Planting Based on Climate Change Variables (Amount of Green Space,
Surface Temperature on a Hot Summer Day, and Existing Tree Canopy)

As a community develops, natural ground cover and forest land is often lost. With
the loss of trees and canopy cover, the tree benefits are lost as well. In particular, a
community loses the valuable natural stormwater interception services of trees to
the impervious surfaces of buildings and streets which increases runoff, negatively
affecting the water quality of surface water in the area. Canopy cover can be
maintained or increased by proper tree planting and care across the community.

10.1 Reforestation
To replace canopy cover, ash trees lost to EAB on maintained City properties will be
replaced at a one-for-one replacement when space permits. City of St. Anthony
Village will have at least 147 trees to replace after dead/poor/fair condition
trees are removed . Each tree lost in high value public spaces will be replaced with
a tree that would improve the species diversity of that property and the entire
system. Ash trees that are removed from boulevards will be replaced with a new
tree if space and funding permits.
Some of the ash trees slated for preservation on public property in the first ten
years may be removed and replaced due to changes in physical condition.
Using the full inventory results, City staff will follow the “10 percent rule” by Dr.
Frank Santamour, US National Arboretum geneticist.
o The rule proposes no more than 10 percent of any one species should make
up the tree population, no more than 20 percent of any genus, and no more
than 30 percent of any one family. Currently Maple (Acer) genus is the only
one in St. Anthony that exceeds the 20 percent guideline.
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 22
o An application of this rule would be that no more than 10 percent of public
trees should be bur oaks, no more than 20 percent should be in the Quercus
(oak) genus, and no more than 30 percent should be in the Fagaceae family
(oaks, beech, chestnut).
o It is regarded as a rule that has some limitations, and many urban foresters
believe each percentage should be even smaller, but it is a good starting point
to work from. Percentages for City property can be viewed in the computer-
based inventory which is updated as trees are removed and planted.
Some of the ash trees on boulevards have been preserved with stem injections, but
those that are too small or in poor condition will be removed and replaced on a case-
by-case basis using a diverse group of trees.
Although symmetry and repetition are planting concepts often implemented with
traditional landscape designs, they run in opposition with promoting species
diversity.
Monoculture-type plantings where one to two species are utilized increase the
chance an entire space is clear cut when a non-native disease or insect like
EAB is introduced.
Instead, there will be a less formal appearance in the boulevard planting
areas, shifting to more of a specimen-based arboretum style planting.
Repetition can be used, but the patterns could be more complex with a longer
stretch of space before species are repeated in the planting design.
Infested ash trees lost in unmaintained/naturalized outlots, conservation
areas or other natural spaces would only be replanted if needed for significant
screening needs, or as part of a larger natural resource plan which would also
minimize non-native invasive species like European buckthorn and garlic
mustard. This program would not be the main reforestation focus during the
peak of EAB infestation unless significant resources were diverted.
In general, the best way to maximize the number and diversity of trees planted is to
use all available planting stock types: bare root, container, and balled-and-burlap
(B&B).
Currently, most of the trees planted on City property are handled in-
house by Public Works staff and/or non-profit organizations such as Tree
Trust. If the City had to contract out all 147 tree replacements, the budget
would need to be about $100,000 to achieve 1:1 replanting.
As part of the replanting plan, the City will implement a three-year
aftercare program. Stressed trees are more susceptible to diseases and
insect pests. Each tree must be watered and checked weekly during the
growing season of May through October for a minimum of two years (and
ideally three) to ensure the City’s investment is retained and the tree
continues to mature and provide ecosystem services and benefits.
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 23
At a minimum, one AmeriCorps member, intern, or seasonal employee working
forty hours a week, should be charged with this task if tree planting on City
property commences on a larger scale.
The most expensive option for an after-care program is hiring a contractor to
monitor and water newly planted trees. This option is sometimes used on busy
street corridors that are more dangerous for an inexperienced person to
access with a watering truck.
New trees should not be planted at an increased rate unless resources are
committed to ensure each tree is watered once weekly during the growing
season.

In addition, the City could consider these options to foster reforestation and tree
establishment in the community:
Host a planting event in a park or collaborating with a local non-profit such as
Tree Trust to host a volunteer planting so residents can learn proper planting
and engage in improving a local park.
Utilize Sentence to Serve (STS) and/or Institutional Community Work Crews
(ICW crews) to assist in ensuring trees stay mulched and have tree guards
and watering bags on at the appropriate time of year. They can also be
supervised by trained staff to assist with planting trees.
Consider funding an Arbor Day Tree Sale or other tree replacement incentive
program to encourage property owners to replant trees on their property after
an ash tree is removed.
An outreach program targeted at Commercial, Industrial and Multiple-Family
parcel-owners to replant after EAB infested trees are removed to improve and
Emerald Ash Borer Management Plan
City of St. Anthony Village, MN
WSB Project No. 022315-000 Page 24
preserve the aesthetics of these areas in St. Anthony Village, and to try to
recapture the tree benefits over time.
o The current ordinances related to trees may need to be amended to ensure
the “conditions of approval” that the developments were approved with are
fulfilled to ensure entire parking lots or parcels are not clear cut when ash
(that are not injected) die from EAB. In some cases, ash trees will be
preserved and would not need to be replaced.
11.0 Conclusion
Emerald ash borer is a significant “predicable” natural disaster facing the City of St.
Anthony Village but following a systematic, proactive plan and leveraging
appropriate resources to respond will minimize the fiscal and environmental impacts
of the pest. The EAB Management Plan should be implemented immediately to
manage public safety risks, and preserve the benefits that ash trees provide to the
community.
