JA Mission: To ensure that every child has a fundamental understanding of the free enterprise system. Whatis Junior Achievement'? A is the world's largest organization dedicated to educating young people about business, economics, and free enterprise. JA programs are taught by volunteers in -class and after- school at locations throughout the United States and in nearly 100 countries. A Brief History,-, Junior Achievement was founded in 1919 by Theodore Vail, President of American Telephone & Telegraph; Horace Moses, President of Strathmore Paper Co.; and Senator Murray Crane of Massachusetts. Its first program, JA Company Program, was offered to high school students on an after- school basis. In 1975, the organization entered the classroom with the introduction of Project Business for the middle grades. Since that time, JA has expanded its activities and broadened its scope to become the leader of in -school and after-school economic education programs for students ingrades K-12. Program Reach: Through offices around the nation and in nearly 100 countries Junior Achievement Worldwide reaches 6.6 million students each year. Programs: JA programs are available for grades K-12 and are delivered by trained volunteers. The volunteers are provided with age-appropriate curricula and specially designed guides that help them introduce the new topics. Elementary students learn about their roles as individuals, workers, and consumers while middlegrade and high school students explore key local and global economic and workforce issues. About the Volunteers: JA's 178,000 classroom volunteers come from all walks of life and include business people, college students, retirees, teachers, parents and even some high school students. These dedicated individuals are the backbone of our organization. Proven Success: JA is one of a few national non -profits to use independent, third party evaluators to gauge the impact of its programs. Since 1993, the Worldwide Institute for Research and Evaluation (WIRE) has conducted studies on JA's impact. Findings prove that JA has a positive impact in a number of critical areas. WIRE results are available, for free, upon request. Summaries of WIRE findings are also published in the JA Programs section of www.ia.orq. Junior Achievement of the Upper Midwest, (JAUK JAUM serves students in Minnesota, North Dakota and western Wisconsin and has had a presence in this region since 1949. With the help of 1 000's of local volunteers, programs such as in -classroom, Exchange City, and Job Shadow were implemented in schools to help reach 117,000 students in the 04-05 school year. ll!�: ,• i. ��- Ourselves — Kindergarten — Students are introduced to basic personal economic issues and the roles individuals play as workers, consumers, and family members.

REPORTS FROM COMMISSION AND STAFF. 3 A. Presentation of Cable Commission, CTV and Impact of Federal Legislation. 4 5 Mayor Faust welcomed Coralee Wilson, CTV, to the meeting. 6 7 Coralee Wilson, CTV, stated she appreciates the opportunity to address the City Council and 8 referenced the background information she had provided to the Council about CTV and the 9 North Suburban Communications Commission (NSCC). 10 11 Ms. Wilson explained that CTV is not the "cable company." St. Anthony is a member of two 12 organizations, the NSCC and North Suburban Access Corporation (NSAC). The NSCC was 13 organized first and when the franchise was awarded, then took over the responsibility to 14 overlook and administer the service. The NSAC was created by the NSCC to oversee and 15 administer public access for the ten cities. The NSAC is a nonprofit 501 C3 corporation. HLOA 17 Ms. Wilson explained that when the franchise was originally awarded, the NSCC was 18 responsible for public access, including training. Most cable companies did not do a great job at 19 that because they only offered it to get the franchise. Once it was awarded, it was not a profit 20 center for them and they did not really care if it did or did not succeed. When Gus Hauser bought 21 the company from Group W, he said CTV should to it instead so a transfer of management was 22 negotiated for public access and it came under NSAC. Ms. Wilson explained her job, when 23 hired, was to get the NSAC up and running and it was decided to use the name CTV because 24 public access in Minnesota is most times considered where you put your boat into the water. 25 26 Ms. Wilson advised there are significant differences in the two organizations. The primary 27 difference is funding. The NSCC is funded by the City's franchise fees and has a budget to 28 determine what the City will contribute to the budget. That contribution is based on a percentage 29 of the total franchise fees of the ten cities. The NSAC is funded by a grant from the cable 30 company and an annual equipment grant. The grant represents the negotiated value of the 31 company's original public access commitments in the cable franchise. She noted the budgets for 32 both have been provided in the informational packet. Ms. Wilson pointed out that the larger 33 budget is in the NSAC because that is where the bulk of the staff and equipment exists. The 34 NSCC has only three half-time positions and is responsible for franchise administration. 35 36 Ms. Wilson explained there is not a lot of rate regulation but they do have authority to regulate 37 the lowest tier of program service, like off broadcast channels, and rates for equipment and 38 installation. That is done to ensure the cable company completes rate request forms required by 39 the FCC. In 2005, they looked at cable company rates and equipment and installation rates and 40 determined they overcharged in 2004 and 2005. As a result, in March subscribers received a 41 $2.89 rebate from Comcast. 42 43 Ms. Wilson stated they also track State and Federal regulation and oversee the institutional 44 network, which is a separate cable network that links all of the public sector organizations in the 45 ten cities (school district, county, universities). She explained that at this point fiber links the 46 cities but this past year an agreement was worked out with Ramsey County to allow them to use 47 St. Paul fiber and their fiber to connect the County's St. Paul and Arden Hills facilities. They A City Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 3 also worked with St. Paul to develop a common agreement to make it easer to administer the agreement. They are now making money on the institutional network. 1 .4 Ms. Wilson announced that it is the 15th < anniversary of CTV as the documents were signed L i 5 years ago in April to transfer the equipment and management to the NSCC- Since then, they 6 have grown and been a value to the community. Ms. Wilson advised of the current number of 7 producers, volunteers, and programs broadcast, which included election coverage, parades and 8 festivals, local and high school sports, concerts, and other programming. In addition, they have 9 retooled and launched web streaming and are pleased with the results. It is their goals to do 10 another web streaming upgrade over the summer and unveil Version 2 in September or October 11 of this year. 12 13 Ms. Wilson stated they will look at a proposal from an engineering firm to do a strategic plan for 14 the institutional network that is heavily used by communities and universities. She explained the 15 need to assure they can keep up with those needs, which does not necessarily mean the entire 16 network will be rebuilt at one time but goals will be established. Their goal is to get more fiber 17 into the network because many school districts still have coaxial cable in their network. 18 19 Ms. Wilson explained that the NSAC and CTV are also trying to keep up with the evolution of 20 society and will be tapeless by the end of this year. They will eliminate the use of VHS and Beta 21 tape and go with M2 and digital transfers playing from the server. Beyond that they will look at 22 what it means to become a community media center. Ms. Wilson stated many people are into 23 blogging, pod comcasting, and vloging and CTV wants to be relevant to the younger generation 24 to keep them involved and transmit programming in ways they understand and will be 25 accessible. 26 27 Ms. Wilson advised there was some minor State legislation but it did not pass and it does not 28 look like it will go anywhere. Next year, it is expected that Qwest will be back with a bill to 29 transfer all cable franchising and video franchising to the State level. She explained that Verison 30 and ATT have been successful in many States in getting that move approved. Ms. Wilson stated 31 they will be tracking that legislation and probably opposing that attempt. She explained they 32 have seen attempts by Verison and ATT to get cities out of the way because they have decided 33 cities are obstacles and they do not want to have to provide community television. Ms. Wilson 34 advised of the bill's progress through the House and Senate that would create a national 35 franchise, eliminating the local franchise. She also advised of the pro -posed process to obtain a 36 national franchise, explaining that due to the requirement for a 30 day consideration, the FCC 37 will not have time to look at financial, technical or legal qualifications. In addition, as soon as a 38 company applies for a national franchise and is serving one, then the incumbent provider can 39 make application. This means that LTV's income will go from just over a million dollars to 40 about $218,000. Ms. Wilson stated on that income the CTV could continue to exist in some 41 fashion but it would not be in the fashion it is today and wouldn't be able to provide election or 42 community event coverage, or mobile production trucks. It would be a drastic cut. 43 44 Ms. Wilson stated that even though the bills says the city can manage the right-of-way and 45 enforce regulations over right-of-way, any appeals by a national franchise holder would go to the 46 FCC and not the local community. Also, there is no requirement for a national franchise holder 47 to build out the entire community so they can pick and chose their location, looking for high City Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 4 1 value customers. That bill has passed out of both the subcommittee and committee and it looked 2 like it would go to the floor of the House. However, it has been held up because Representative 3 Sensenbrenner has asked for jurisdiction of the bill. Now House leadership is considering what 4 to do with that request.. Ms. Wilson asked the-Councilmembers to contact the Minnesota 5 delegation as soon as possible to express concerns about this bill. 6 7 Ms. Wilson stated it had been hoped that the Senate bill would be an improvement and involve a 8 bipartisan approach. Instead Senator Stevens came out with bill on May I" and it is worse than 9 Senator Barton's bill. In the Stevens' bill, franchises are still awarded by a city but still only 10 have to provide its name and contact information and if the City does not approve in 30 days, it 11 would take effect. Again, the city is not permitted to evaluate the legal, technical, and financial 12 qualifications for operating a franchise in its city. Unlike the Barton bill that says the new entry 13 has to serve at least one subscriber before the incumbent can get rid of their franchise, the 14 Stevens' bill indicates all they have to do is make application. Funding would be I% but 15 explicitly allows the video provider to deduct from that their cost for operating the institutional 16 network, which may leave nothing. ®r if their costs exceed the I%, they can bill the cities for 17 that cost. With these bills., the rights-of-way appeals again go to the FCC and if they rule against 18 the city and decide the city has been abusive in exercising their power, the FCC can order the 19 city to pay the provider who brought the appeal their attorney fees and all the costs of the 20 Commission's appeal. Again, there is no build out requirement so they can pick and choose 21 where they want to build the system. 22 23 Ms. Wilson advised that hearings on the Senate bill are scheduled for May 18 and 25. She stated 24 it is critical that the City contact Senator Dayton and Senator Coleman and say it is not 25 acceptable, unless the City wants to give up authority of its public rights-of-way. She 26 recommended the City make contact via calls or e-mails instead of mailing a letter. She offered 27 to answer questions and stated she can provide more information, if desired. 28 29 Mayor Faust thanked Ms. Wilson for this presentation, noting the Council has also received 30 information from the League of Minnesota Cities. He stated it is good to broadcast this 31 information tonight to alert customers hearing the broadcast to be aware that service may be lost. 32 33 Ms. Wilson concurred and urged viewers to also call their elected officials. 34 35 Mayor Faust noted that Councilmember Gray is the City's representative to the Cable 36 Commission and stated he appreciate Mr. Gray's work on the City's behalf. He asked if the 37 City's school district does not have fiber. Ms. Wilson stated they only have three schools and 38 installed their own fiber between the schools. She stated she thinks they are also linked to the 39 fiber from the City all. 40 41 Mayor Faust advised that he was asked several weeks ago by some young girls who selects the 42 radio channel and music to be played on the City's channel when not broadcasting. Ms. Wilson 43 explained it is probably selected by Ruth Mason or Kim Moore -Sykes, but it is the City's 44 prerogative. However, she would suggest that the City not select a commercial radio station due 45 to copyright issues and the commercials that are broadcast. She explained that St. Anthony uses 46 a digital cable box and can run music from a music service that offers a wide variety of music 47 types. h City Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 5 2 Mayor Faust noted that the City has a relationship with Salo, Finland, and invited CTV to attend 3 the June 8, 2006, Salo Park dedication at 5 p.m. so the ceremony can be taped for later broadcast. .4 Ms. Wilson stated they will be in attendance. 5 6 Mayor Faust stated the City appreciates the work of CTV and what they bring to the residents 7 and the Council supports CTV in those efforts. 8 9 Councilmember Thuesen asked if the National League of Cities has been involved with 10 lobbying. Ms. Wilson stated they have and are part of a coalition with five to six other 11 organizations. However, they have been a bit hampered because legal affairs staff is depleted. 12 But, as an organization, they have been active and sent out action alerts. Ms. Wilson stated she 13 does forward those action alerts to City staff. 14 15 Mayor Faust advised that you can sign onto the League of Minnesota Cities website and sign 16 their list server to receive updates on these issues. He again thanked Ms. Wilson for her 17 attendance and information provided. 18 19 VI. GENERAL POLICY BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL. 20 A. Consider Resolution 06-048; Adopting the Tax Increment Po 21 22 Mr. Mornson reviewed the resolution with the Council and indicated that it will approve a Tax 23 Increment Policy tailored after what was done on the Silver Lake Village project. He suggested 24 the draft resolution be introduce tonight, the Council discuss the policy and offer suggestions, 25 then table the resolution and bring it back for approval at the next meeting. 26 27 Mr. Mornson advised that the policy has three objectives that a project has to meet to be 28 considered for Tax Increment Financing (TIF): 1) long-term benefit to the community; 2) quality 29 employment opportunities; and 3) significantly adds to the City's tax base by providing high 30 quality benefits. He explained that the application for TIF assistance must be accompanied with 31 a signed development application and payment of a $3,000 non-refundable fee, which will cover 32 the City's costs to review the application. Then, to obtain a predevelopment agreement, the 33 applicant will need to pay a $10,000 escrow payment to help cover City fees to determine if the 34 applicant meets the policy tests. 35 36 Mr. Mornson suggested adding statements for a "look back" provision as the City had with 37 Silver Lake Village to allow the City to look back at the developer's finances and that the 38 developer must demonstrate experience in doing this development. The Policy will also indicate 39 that TIF will be pay-as-you-go only. He noted that even though the City is issuing bonds, they 40 are not issued until the project is fully developed so there is no risk to the City. The Policy will 41 require pursuit of all third party grants. 42 43 Mr. Mornson drew the Council's attention to pages 9 and 10 of the application, that addresses the 44 projected number of jobs created and wage categories. He noted that St. Anthony has never 45 provided TIF for job creation or wages because, as a first ring suburb, the City needs to remove 46 blight. He recommended that instead of listing job creation and wages, to list the number of low, 47 medium and high range jobs. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 6 2 Mayor Faust stated his preference to take it one step farther and list pay ranges and dollars 3 instead of just listing the number of jobs in each of those ranges. He noted the City already has 4 the policy of pay-as-you-go so he is glad that it will be written into the policy. He also supports 5 the reference to fiscal disparities staying within the TIF district because the Council has made a 6 basic commitment to the public to assure it is a self-sustaining operation. Mayor Faust stated he 7 also noticed the "but for" reference on page 4 and suggested the "but for" language be amplified 8 as it is indicated in the purpose section of State Statute. He explained he is making that 9 suggestion for amplified language because future Councils may not understand that total 10 concept. 11 12 Councilmember Gray asked if there has not been a previous policy. Mr. Mornson stated that is 13 correct and he has found that many other cities also do not have a TIF policy because of the 14 restrictions in the Statutes. Mr. Mornson noted this is a general policy and will assure all are 15 treated the same. In addition, the City gets a lot of "fly-by-night" developers that end up wasting 16 staff s time to determine if they can get TIF. 17 18 Councilmember Thuesen asked if this policy is more internal or if there is pressure from the 19 State to keep cities accountable. Mr. Mornson explained that the Mayor attended a TIF seminar 20 where one of the Ehlers & Associate speakers said if the City does not have a TIF policy, it 21 should. 22 23 Mayor Faust pointed out that this policy lays out all the issues so everyone knows they are being 24 treated the same and it will free staff time in not having to answer these questions. 25 26 Councilmember Thuesen stated he hopes it will also result in the more serious developers 27 proceeding. 28 29 Councilmember Stille stated that TIF is something the City does not want to hand out to 30 everyone and asked if findings are needed should the Council desire to deny an application. Mr. 31 Mornson stated it is his opinion that the City has a lot of flexibility if they want to approve or 32 deny the application. He noted that before a TIF application is submitted to the Council, staff 33 and financial consultants will eliminate many of the applications. So, by the time it gets to the 34 Council, it has staffs "blessing." 35 36 Councilmember Stille stated he wants to assure the Council has the flexibility needed to approve 37 the projects they determine are the best for the City. Mr. Mornson stated the Council does have 38 that flexibility with this TIF policy. Mayor Faust suggested staff obtain a legal opinion on that 39 issue which can be included in the TIF policy. 40 41 Mayor Faust noted this TIF policy is patterned after the Silver Lake Village project, which is one 42 of the better development agreements that the City has used. Mr. Mornson stated that is correct 43 and advised that other cities are calling to learn how St. Anthony structured such a good deal to 44 assure the project was completed and TIF use. He explained that the development agreement is a 45 key component to spell out those issues. 46 City Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 7 1 Mayor Faust stated that consideration of Resolution 06-0485 Adopting the Tax Increment Policy, 2 will be tabled to the May 23, 2006 Council meeting. He encouraged Councilmembers to inform 3 staff of changes they would like made to the TIF policy prior to that meeting date. 4 5 B. Consider Ordinance 06-001, Housekeeping of City Ordinances (1St reading 6 7 Mr. Mornson presented the ordinance and explained that that it addresses housekeeping issues. 8 He recommended this action be taken in one motion, to waive the first and second readings, 9 approve the third reading, and move directly to adoption. Mr. Mornson presented the wording 10 changes as follows: 11 12 Chapter 3 — Personnel: The term "personal leave" was changed to "personal time off (PTO)" as 13 suggested by the City's Auditor. In Section 300.19, fifth sentence, the word "requested" was 14 changed to "request." 15 16 Chapter 6 — Fees: The fee for duplicate dog tags will consistently be listed at $5.00. The 17 wording "per unit" will be added after the fee to help clarify for City staff. Charges and 18 Assessments, Section 620.03 and 620.04, the due date will be changed to "November 15," which 19 will allow residents an extended opportunity to pay their assessment directly to the City. 20 21 Chapter 13 — Building, Housing, Construction and Signs: Section 1315.01, Definition, the word 22 "basing" was changed to "bathing." 23 24 Motion by Councilmember Thuesen, seconded by Councilmember Gray, to waive the first and 25 second readings, approve third reading, and adopt Ordinance 06-001, Housekeeping of City 26 Ordinances. 27 28 oti® carried unanimousl 29 30 C. Consider Resolution 06-049, Supporting NE Diagonal Trail Plan with No Financial 31 Responsibility to the City of St. AnthopL. 32 33 Mr. Mornson reviewed the resolution with the Council and indicated that this was directed at the 34 last Council meeting to indicate the City supports the Northeast Diagonal Trail but will not 35 support it financially. 36 37 Motion by Councilmember Gray, seconded by Councilmember Thuesen, to adopt Resolution 06- 38 049, Supporting NE Diagonal Trail Plan with No Financial Responsibility to the City of St. 39 Anthony. 40 41 Motion carried unanimously® 42 43 D. Consider Resolution 06-050, Sup -porting the Installation of the Stone Sculpture at Salo 44 Park in the City of St. Anthony_ 45 46 Mr. Mornson reviewed the resolution with the Council and indicated that it supports the 47 installation of the stone sculpture at Salo Park. He explained that Councilmember Horst has flK City Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 8 1 been working on this matter and indicated that St. Paul Public Art is requesting a resolution 2 stating the City supports the installation. 3 4 Motion by Councilmember Stille, seconded by Councilmember Gray, to adopt Resolution 06- 5 050, Supporting the Installation of the Stone Sculpture at Salo Park in the City of St. Anthony. 6 7 i® carried uhanimous 8 9 E.

Mayor Faust read the resolution in fall. 13 14 Motion by Mayor Faust, seconded by Councilmember Stille, to adopt Resolution 06-051, 15 Recognizing the Dedication of Salo Park in recognition of the Sister City relationship between 16 Salo, Finland and St. Anthony, Minnesota. 17 18 Motion carried unanimous 19 20 VII. REPORTS FROM CITY MANAGER AND COUNCILMEMBERS. 21 City Manager Mornson reported the following: 22 0 Upcoming Vital Aging Council meeting and presentations by the Police Chief and Fire 23 Chief. 24 0 MnDOT has a new grant program for sidewalk construction that provides a safe school 25 zone to transport students. Staff will make application and request a resolution of support 26 from the school district. He noted that the Higherest sidewalk is on the agenda for next 27 year construction and a workshop will be held tomorrow on that project. Since this 28 sidewalk divides Roseville and St. Anthony, it may be possible to do something more 29 with that project. 30 0 It is anticipated that the e-mail subscriber list for the Police Department will be ready by 31 June 1, 2006. Subscribers will be sent crime alerts. 32 0 Lauderdale is not interested in ajoint purchase of a speed cart and Falcon Heights has 33 indicated they will buy their own. St. Anthony will probably budget for a speed cart, 34 which is estimated to cost $4,000. 35 0 Cable Telecaster Ruth Olson has given notice that she will be leaving shortly once a 36 replacement is found. Arden Hills and Little Canada have also lost their telecaster so the 37 Cable Commission may hire someone to do this work at the three cities and then bill the 38 city for the hours used. Mr. Mornson stated an article regarding this opening will be 39 placed in the newsletter. 40 Mr. Mornson advised of the items that will be on the May 23, 2006 Council meeting 41 agenda, noting it will be a full agenda. 42 43 Councilmember Thuesen asked whether the speed cart will provide the City with downloadable 44 information. Mr. Mornson stated he does not know and will ask Police Chief Ohl. He noted the 45 old speed cart did provide that type of information. Mayor Faust agreed that the City would like 46 that data. 47 City Council Regular Meeting.Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 9 1 Mayor Faust asked whether the Higherest sidewalk is eligible for the new NINDOT sidewalk 2 grant. Mr. Mornson answered in the affirmative and explained that it is a State road but that is 3 not a requirement of the NINDOT grant. However, the sidewalk has to be available to get 4 children to school. 5 6 Councilmember Stille stated he enjoyed working on clean up day and visiting with residents. 7 8 Councilmember Stille stated he attended the first meeting of the Comprehensive Plan Task Force 9 on May 8, 2006 and explained this was the first of five meetings. He stated he is looking 10 forward to that process. 11 12 Councilmember Gray stated that last Wednesday he attended the Northwest Youth and Family 13 Services Leadership luncheon, a fundraising event, and believe it was very successful. He 14 thanked Mayor Faust, Councilmember Thuesen, City Manager Mornson, Parks Director 15 Hartman, and Assistant City Manager Moore -Sykes for their support in attending that function. 16 17 Councilmember Gray stated he received an e-mail from Steve Peterson, President of the 18 Northeast Lions Club, who will be before the Council to apply for a gambling license for the 19 Village Pub. He explained they have agreed to a lease with Village Pub and that application will 20 be discussed at the May 23, 2006 Council meeting. 21 22 Councilmember Thuesen referenced the Vital Aging Council agenda and stated that at a future 23 meeting he would like a representative from Vital Aging to present the findings of their recent 24 survey. 25 26 Councilmember Thuesen stated he enjoyed the Northwest Youth and Family Services 27 Leadership luncheon, which included an excellent speaker. He noted this group does many good 28 things for the community. 29 30 Councilmember Thuesen stated he attended the Comprehensive Plan Task Force meeting. He 31 stated he believes this is an important process that will create a document that is not put on the 32 shelf but is intended to be used a guide for the next ten years in how the City will develop, its 33 philosophies, and many other issues. He encouraged residents to provide their thoughts to the 34 Council or other members on the Task Force on how they see St. Anthony in the next ten years. 35 36 Mayor Faust reported on the Mayor's Association meeting held April 28 and 29 in Austin, 37 Minnesota where the theme was emergency operations. He advised that many of the mayors 38 have gone through serious travesties and it was interesting to hear what they had to say. Mayor 39 Faust commented that based on the City's table top exercise, he thinks St. Anthony is in better 40 shape now than before should something occur. 41 42 Mayor Faust commented that it is interesting when you go into a community like Austin that has 43 a strong identity with a business, which in their case is Spam. 44 45 Mayor Faust stated he also attended the Northwest Youth and Family Services Leadership 46 luncheon and least anyone think it was a free meal, it was not, it was a fund raiser. He stated that flK City Council Regular Meeting Minutes May 9, 2006 Page 10 Art Rolnick, Vice President of the Federal Reserve Bank, was the speaker and made a 2 compelling argument for investment in education and how it pays back, even starting at prenatal. 3 4 Mayor Faust stated he -attended the May 4, 2006, Middle Mississippi Water Management 5 Organization retreat that was held at the Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District. He 6 suggested that later this summer, the Council and staff tour this building that has a green roof, 7 rain gardens, and pervious parking lot so no water runs off the site. He stated thisgroup has only 8 been in existence for five years as a functioning group and the retreat was a worthwhile event. 9 10 Mayor Faust noted the City's clean up day is a very important event for the community and 11 reminded residents that they can take their tree limbs over to the Ramsey County Arden Hills 12 recycle point, even if residing in Hennepin County. He stated it was encouraging to see residents 13 come to do recycling and perhaps some improvements can be made to nextyear's clean up day 14 to expand services to include electronics. 15 16 Mayor Faust stated his agreement with the comment of Councilmember Thuesen that the Comp 17 Plan Task Force is creating a living document. He stated he served on that group ten years ago 18 and refers back to that Plan. He noted that St. Anthony wouldn't have the things it has today 19 without that blueprint and he appreciates Councilmembers Gray and Thuesen serving on that 20 Task Force. 21 22 Mayor Faust reported that he attended another board meeting with the Mississippi Water 23 Management Organization and advised that this organization is very concerned about water 24 runoff and the quality of water that ends up in the Mississippi River. He stated it is vital and 25 important work to assure the water is clean and recyclable to use in the future. 26 28 Mayor Faust invited residents to come forward at this time and address the Council on items that 29 are not on the regular agenda. 30 31 Hearing none, Mayor Faust moved forward with the agenda. 32 33 IX INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS. 34 Mayor Faust displayed a copy of the street construction plan and indicated it was sent out last 35 week along with a refrigerator magnet containing telephone numbers to call if assistance is 36 needed.

Tin trends are on an • Tanning upswing and we intend to capitalize on these moves. Our research has found that there is a substantial tannin customer base in St.Anth® g nY area, as there are only two category #1 (as defined under 4.3) salons within the three mile area. However, the upgraded equipment is currentlynot available. There is no diversity in the level and serviceability of tannin equipment and cleanliness for t is using old school technology. Tannin is lifestyle and everybody's gY g a y skin type is different. That is why you need different levels of tanning with program/package tanning and an ultimatlly clean and sanitize enviroment.

The purpose of this study is to determine the potential traffic operation of the intersection of Silver Lake Road and 37th Avenue N.E. in the City of St. Anthony for two different conditions. The City of St. Anthony is considering reducing the southbound approach on Silver Lake Road from one through lane and a through/right-turn lane to one through lane and an exclusive right -turn lane; the left -turn lane would remain unchanged. Currently Silver Lake Road is a two-lane road to the south of 37th Avenue N.E. and a four -lane road to the north. The traffic operations analysis of this intersection considers the following: Forecast volumes for 2007, 2017, and 2027, including background growth and additional traffic from local development for 37th Avenue N.E., Wal-Mart access, and 39th Avenue N.E. all on Silver Lake Road. Operational analysis of Silver Lake Road at 37th Avenue N.E. with the existing lane geometry and forecast volumes.

Local redevelopment and increased commuter traffic to/from the Minneapolis area has caused modest growth on Silver Lake Road over the last ten years. Mn/DOT historical traffic counts, Table 1, shows an average annual growth rate of about 3.5 percent on Silver Lake Road at 39th Ave NE over the last ten years. This growth rate is high for similar roadways in Hennepin and Ramsey Counties, but not unexpected, due to the redevelopment of the old Apache Mall site. Hennepin and Ramsey Counties have seen an average of 1 percent to 1.5 percent growth per year on similar roadways within the counties. HistoricalTable 1.

This mall has been removed and the site is currently being redeveloped. This development is part of the St. Anthony Village Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment. The site was surveyed on April 18, 2006 to determine the percentage of occupancy. The development is about 65 percent occupied/constructed and includes retail developments, condominium and town homes, and apartment buildings; each in various stages of occupancy and construction.

The distribution of trips generated for the proposed site was estimated as follows: 20 percent - Stinson Boulevard. 5 percent - 39th Avenue N.E. east of Silver Lake Road 35 percent - Silver Lake Road to the north. 40 percent - Silver Lake Road to the south. New trips passing through the intersection of 37th .Avenue N.E on Silver Lake Road were distributed similar to the existing turning movements. Forecast Traffic Volumes Traffic volumes were estimated for the year 2007, 2017, and 2027. The traffic volumes were computed by adding trips from known local development and background growth to the existing counts. Background The background growth for Silver Lake Road was estimated by analyzing historical growth and local land -use. The historical traffic volumes show an annual growth rate of 3.5 percent over the last ten years. The traffic volumes on Silver Lake Road are likely to grow at a slower rate in the future than in the past ten years. Over the last ten years a Cub Foods store ``w•sb6'•projccts\01538-02'%Trattic\HC Silvcr-u CR D\06041%Mcmo.doc Memorandum May 16, 2006 Page 4 of 15 and a Wal-Mart store have opened in the Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment site which has contributed to much of the increased traffic on Silver Lake Road. Upon the completion of the Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment, it was assumed that the background traffic volumes will grow at a rate of 0.75 percent annually on Silver Lake Road. This, combined with local development traffic, will yield a net growth in traffic similar to both Hennepin and Ramsey County State Aid growth rates. The 2007 traffic forecast volumes assumed the Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment was constructed and fully occupied. The a.m. and p.m. 2007 traffic forecasts are shown in Figures 3A and 4A in the Appendix. The 2017 and 2027 traffic forecast volumes assumed ten and 20 years of background growth respectively added to the existing counts and the traffic generated from a fully occupied Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment site. The a.m. and p.m., 2017 and 2027 traffic forecasts, are shown in Figures SA through 8A in the Appendix. Methodology The Level of Service (LOS) is the rating of an intersection's performance. An intersection with a LOS A has very little delay per vehicle, and no congestion, hence, operates well. An intersection with a LOS F has extreme delays per vehicle and often severe congestion. In an urban area similar to the proposed site, LOS D is typically the minimum acceptable rating. The second fundamental component of operational analysis is a study of vehicle queuing. The queue length is important in determining if traffic will backup from an intersection and block vehicles from entering turn lanes or private accesses. The 95th percentile queue is considered the accepted design standard for an intersection. This is the longest length of queue with a 5 percent chance of occurring during the peak hour. Traffic operations were analyzed using the Synchro/SimTraffic 6 software package which uses the methodology contained in the 2000 Highway. Capacity Manual. The lane geometry, signal timing, and traffic volumes are entered into the traffic analysis software. The software provides intersection delay and queue data used to evaluate the operations of each intersection. Operational alysis Results Table 3 below shows the modeled LOS for the intersection of Silver Lake Road at 37th Avenue N.E. As can readily be seen from the table, the existing lane configuration operates better and has shorter queue length of vehicles on Silver Lake Road than the alternative: dropping a southbound through lane at 37th Avenue N.E. The key issues caused by removing the southbound through lane are: Increased queue of vehicles on Silver Lake Road southbound approach to 37th Avenue N.E. blocks the Wal-Mart access in the a.m. and p.m. peak hours with the 2027 design year forecast volumes, causing access problems to/from the Wal-Mart parking lot. .wsb6�projccts�Ol53R-03`Trat ic�HC Silvcr (u CR D`060417%Mcmo.doc 1 Memorandum May 16, 2006 Page 5 of 15 Increased queue of vehicles on Silver Lake Road northbound approach, blocking 36 1h .Avenue N.E.

Intersection. The 2027 modeled volumes, with only one southbound through lane on Silver Lake Road, show the following issues: Vehicles will back up in the p.m. peak hour past the Wal-Mart access on southbound Silver Lake Road. Vehicles exiting the Wal-Mart parking lot onto Silver Lake Road will experience significant delays because of the backup on Silver Lake Road. Because of the delay, vehicles may exit the parking lot into the right lane on Silver Lake Road and may merge/weave into the through and left -turn lanes that already have a significant backup of vehicles. This may cause blocking of the right -turn lane and will further degrade the operation of Silver Lake Road -�wsWprojects\0I538-02\Trat%ie\HC SiIver (a CR D\060417`.Mcmo.doe Memorandum May 16, 2006 Page 6 of 15 It is likely that vehicles southbound on Silver Lake Road will try to avoid the long queues and squeeze into the single through lane at the intersection of 37th Avenue N.E. rather than waiting at the end of the queue. This will create safety problems and potential blockage of the right -turn lane. Northbound traffic that backs up on Silver Lake Road south of 37th Avenue N.E. will be longer, potentially blocking 36th Avenue N.E. The queue will be longer with only one through lane southbound because more green time will have to be provided for southbound traffic on Silver Lake Road to minimize the length of the southbound backup on Silver Lake Road. The additional delays and congestion that are expected to occur with only one southbound through lane may cause traffic to cut through the area on local streets in order to avoid the 37th Avenue and Silver Lake Road Intersection.

The reason for the 25 advancement to this District is that the first increments generated in the District will not occur 26 until 2006 and may not be sufficient to pay for advancements to the District by the HRA and 27 other third party obligations. 28 29 She noted that to date, the HRA has not advanced any funds to the TIF District under the Prior 30 Loan Resolution. However,, the HRA anticipates it will now need to advance funds to the 31 District to pay for various project costs in excess of the $200,000. In order to accommodate this 32 expenditure and future unforeseen expenditures, the interfund loan cap is being raised to 33 $500)000. 34 35 Ms. Kvilvang indicated that the "blanket" resolution is so the HRA will not have to complete an 36 interfund loan every time it is going to expend administrative costs in this district. 37 38 Motion by Councilmember Stille, seconded by Councilmember Horst to adopt Resolution 06- 39 025 re: Authorizing an Increase in the Principal Amount of Interfund Loans for Tax Increment 40 Financing District No. 3-5. 41 42 Motion carried unanimousl 43 44 C.

Hennepin County 45 Representatives presentin . 46 Craig Twinem, Hennepin County Transportation Department, along with Commissioner 47 Stenglein presented. M City Council Regular Meeting Minutes February 14, 2006 Page 6 2 Commissioner Stenglein thanked the Council and the task force fortheir personal time into this 3 project. He said the County is doing large things on Lowry Avenue as well. He said potentially 4 there will be a new bridge over the river. 5 6 Mr. Twinem, stated this Resolution seeks preliminary layout approval from St. Anthony 7 Boulevard to 37 th Avenue NE. He noted he met about five times with the task force. The 8 preliminary design evolved through the meetings. The task force was comprised of 25 residents. 9 The plan we will present is a plan that takes into consideration all of the stakeholder ideas and as to well as a road that will swerve the community for 50 years. 1l 12 Mr. Hubmer said a set of values was developed with the task force. There were a number of 13 categories that were important to the task force. The biggest priority was sidewalks on both 14 sides. Followed by utilities, then lighting along the corridor, and then preserving the Village 15 identity and character. The value that received the largest point total by far was sidewalks on 16 both sides. This lines up with the Village statement to create a walkable environment. He said 17 in one of the first meetings with task force they tried to identify the existing concerns today and is what will they be in the future. 19 20 Mr. Twinem said they gave the task force the assignment to look at other roads with similar 21 characteristics to Silver Lake Road. Out of this came design alternatives. K"nowing this would 22 be a two-lane road, we recognized there would be a need to have shoulders. Shoulders need to 23 be 8 feet so it is safe. As the discussion evolved, more of thepeople living on the roadway, 24 chose to go for parking versus an 8 foot shoulder. There are areas at key intersections where we 25 have developed bump outs. They have been 'placed at intersections to shorten thepath for people 26 to cross the street. This will also prevent passing on the right. He said they have he 27 comments from the open house and on comment cards that some people do not like the impact 28 the sidewalk will have. There will be no green space between the curb and sidewalk. There will 29 be a space for utility equipment, snow storage, etc. The sidewalks do not create an additional 30 footprint in terms of the project. 31 32 Mr. Twinem explained as we move down the road from Hilldale to the north fire station 33 entrance, we have developed a lot of right turn lanes. The two lane approach at intersections is 34 safer. 35 36 He went over the project schedule. They will begin the final design in March. A cost sharing 37 agreement will be developed in the fall of 2006. Construction will begin in 2007. Some 38 easement permissions are needed for this project. There will be retaining walls as part of the 39 project to minimize property impact. He noted an initial assessment has been done. He stated 40 they will work closely with power companies to try to bury the lines. There may be a small cost 41 associated with this. 42 43 Mr. Twinem invited questions from the audience. 44 45 Elise Woodhall., 3500 Silver Lake Road, said she does not see the need for an extra turn lane 46 there. As this project is proposed, she will lose all the trees in her frontyard. 47 W City Council Regular Meeting Minutes February 14., 2006 Page 7 I Mr. Twinem responded this is a request for an approval of the footprint only. There are number 2 of private driveways in that location. We didget positive feedback from the Fire Department 3 that applauded the left turn -lane. This will help the fire department get their vehicles in the 4 station safely. 5 6 Commissioner Stenglein asked if the apparatus are on the road often. Mayor Faust responded 7 there is a two -minute response time throughout the city. He added that they also go out and to 8 conduct inspections, likely with smaller vehicles, and there are training S 9 10 Councilmember Horst said this area in front of City Hall is active as far as turning traffic. The I I turn lane was developed for that part of the road only. The initial thought was to have this kind 12 of turn lane up and down the entire corridor, but that was rejected. He added that by 13 consolidating some of the accesses, there will be an increase in the number ofparking stalls off 14 the roadway. 15 16 Chris Swanson, 3027 Silver Lake Road., asked if bus stops will be moved. He has trouble getting 17 out of his driveway in the morning since the busses hold up traffic. He said bump may make 18 traffic back up. He also mentioned that at the public hearing, it looked as though the sidewalks 19 would be 6 feet. 20 21 Mr. Twinem said the comments reflect some of the give and take by the people at the meeting. 22 He stated the bumpouts could impede traffic. They felt the bum outs were a way to make a safe 23 road and prevent from passing on the right. In respect to the 6 foot sidewalk, we aregoing to 24 grade and flatten out the area anyway. We feel is the appropriate width according to a street like 25 this. 26 27 Mayor Faust mentioned that we found children walk three abreast, not two, when walking down 28 the sidewalk. The wider the sidewalk, the safer for the children. 29 30 Councilmember Horst said there was a lot of discussion on the width of sidewalks at the 31 meetings. Five-foot sidewalks were discussed, but found to be too intrusive. They felt the best 32 prospect was to have 6 foot sidewalks. This provides safety and aplace for snow to stack. 33 34 Mr. Hubner pointed out that by widening the sidewalk area, there is a greater chance of getting 35 onto Silver Lake Road. 36 37 Mayor Faust said he has issues with 37th Coming south. He said he didn't like two lanes, but 38 thought the right turn lane would be appropriate. He said he is overall very pleased with what 39 the task force has done. We get one chance to do this every 50 years and would like us toput 40 100% into it. He said he would be open to considering whether this is needed in front of the fire 41 station. He said we should take a look at it as a courtesy.. He added that this was agood design, 42 created in a short amount of time. 43 44 Councilmember Stitle mentioned this is a short time line. 45 ANS City Council Regular Meeting Nfinutes February 14, 2006 Page 8 1 Mr. Twinem said we are behind the 8 -ball. In order to determine the construction limits,, we 2 have to get going on a detailed design. A 3-D model must be generated. We are looking at trying 3 to get this under construction in April of nextyear. 4 5 Commissioner Stenglein explained the last block of road between 36th and St. Anthony 6 Boulevard can be left to look at later. This layout can be approved now in order to get a detailed 7 design going. He stated we must talk with Ramsey County regarding that portion anyway. 8 9 Mr. Twinem added that they can come back to the Council after further discussion with Ramsey 10 County with the final proposal. 11 12 Mayor Faust said he is not concerned to approve the resolution with caveats. We want to see this 13 go forward. We may put caveats on this. We want to do it right the first time. 14 15 Councilmember Horst commented that he feels the engineers will look at this and the Mayor 16 may not speak for the entire Council in regards to the turn lane. He said he is interested in 17 moving traffic along this road. We expect more traffic in the future. He has seen the backups is and is bad many times during the day. 19 20 Councilmember Gray clarified he was on the task force and this was a concern brought u -0 bV 21 people on the task force. He has the concern as well. We will encroach further on the house 's on 22 the west side in order to keep the two lanes. The other thing is when we saw the model traffic 23 was being backed up to 39 1h. Silver Lane is quite a bit further. Initially it was 1,000 feet and it I? A 91h. brought it to 3 25 26 Motion by Councilmember Stille, seconded by Councilmember Horst to adopt Resolution 06- 27 026 re: Approve Preliminary Layout No. 3 for the Improvement of Silver Lake Road (CSAR 28 13 6) from S t. Anthony B lvd. to 3 7Avenue NE 29 30 Councilmember Gray thanked Commissioner Stenglein and County and City Staff, as well as the 31 task force for their work. He said this is a great plan. He noted his concern is with 37th Avenue 32 and that is a small part of the project. He offered an amendment to the motion to include the 33 reduction of lanes south bound to one. 34 35 Motion by Councilmember Gray, seconded b,� Mayor Faust, to amend the motion to add: to 36 include the reduction of lanes southbound 37t Avenue to one, thereby necessitating. a right turn 37 only lane on Silver Lake Road. 38 39 Councilmember Horst stated if this Council is indicating that without a right turn only lane, this 40 is a deal buster and we don't want Silver Lake Road finished, he would vote against the 41 amendment. He said this question has been looked at. Toput this in the Resolution forces them 42 to create a turn lane, and they are saying that cannot be done. 43 44 Councilmember Stille commented there are a lot of rewards that we can acquire by going 45 forward 'such as sidewalks, street lights, corridor connecting the north to the south, bumpouts 46 allowing safer commuting or walkers, burying underground power lines. He said he -agrees with 47 Councilmember Horst in that he is willing to ask engineers to look at that again, but not at the M City Council Regular Meeting Minutes February 149 2006 Page 9 1 risk of j eopardizing the project. If it is a deal breaker, he stated he will not vote for it. If it is a 2 message that says look at this again, he will vote for it. 3 4 Mayor Faust said this is a way for us to get them to look at this. 5 6 Mr. Twinem explained that if 'the amendment passes, it is a one-lane southbound approach and 7 he cannot speak on behalf of Ramsey County. He proposed to look at the layout as shown today. 8 Then it can be determined what the impacts are and it can be brought back to the Council. 9 10 Commissioner Stenglein commented that this issue will come back to the Council., so the 11 amendment is not necessary at this time. 12 13 Mayor Faust stated he does not want this issue to be lost. He said if he can be assured that this 14 will be looked at, he would withdraw his second. 15 16 Mr. Twinem assured Mayor Faust that they will look at it. 17 is Commissioner Stenglein said he would give the commitment that it will be looked at. 19 20 Motion by Councilmember Gray to withdraw his amendment to the motion regarding Resolution 21 06026 re: Approve Preliminary Layout No. 3 for the Improvement of Silver Lake Road (CSAH 22 136) from St. Anthony Blvd. to 37 th Avenue NE. 23 24 25 Motion carrien n oust L. 26 VII.

This ordinance was created to address the inflow and infiltration (FI) entering the City's sanitary sewers through illicit private connections to the sewer. As you are aware, efforts to reduce FI, have been initiated by the City in attempt to address a sanitary sewer surcharge and potential demand charge imposed by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES). The 2006 St. Anthony 1/1 Reduction Plan identified illicit private connections as the primary source of F1 in the City and recommended that action be taken to eliminate such connections. This ordinance provides legal authority to the City so that it can administer a program to eliminate such connections. The ordinance contains the following: • Defines allowable discharges into the sanitary sewer system. • Defines illicit connections to the sanitary sewer that typically contribute to PI. • Defines the proper way to disconnect an illicit connection and states theproper configuration for utilizing a sump -pump. • States that the City has a right to inspect private property for illicit connections. • States that the property owner of an illicit connection must correct the problem within a specific timeframe or be subjected to a utility surcharge enforced by the City. • Allows the City to conduct follow-up inspections to verify that the property remains compliant with these rules. • Defines a city -imposed surcharge of $100 per month and prohibits the issuance of city permits if residents do not allow inspections to be performed by the City or if they do not disconnect illicit connections. • Allows waivers for parcels not able to meet the requirement due to public safety concerns. • Allows property owners a means to pay for disconnection work over 5 years by using an assessment to the parcel. • States that violations of this section are a misdemeanor and could be prosecuted by the City in a criminal court.

GILLIGAN (612) 340-2962 FAX (612) 340-2643 gilligan.jerome@dorsey.com The City of St. Anthony and Amcon St. Anthony LLC (the "Developer") entered into a Development Agreement dated November 3, 2003, pursuant to when the City sold certain land to the Developer and the Developer agreed, among other things, to construct certain improvements on such land. Included in the improvements to be constructed on the land conveyed by the City was a restaurant (the "Restaurant"). The Development Agreement provides that the Restaurant is required to be constructed by September 1, 2005. Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Development Agreement, the City was granted an option to purchase from the Developer, the Restaurant site identified in the Development Agreement for $100, exercisable at any time after September 1, 2005) if the lease for the Restaurant has not then commenced or the Restaurant has not then opened the business pursuant to such lease. The Developer failed to construct the restaurant by September 1, 2005 which resulted in a default under the Development Agreement, and in September 2005, the City and the Developer entered into a First Amendment to Development Agreement, pursuant to which the Developer paid the City $50,000 as liquidated damages for the Developer's default under the Development Agreement, and the City extended the required completion date for the Restaurant to June 1, 2006. In addition, Section 3 of the First Amendment to Development Agreement provides that if the Developer fails to cause a certificate of occupancy to be issued for the Restaurant on or before June 1, 2006, the Restaurant site automatically reverts to the City, unless the City elects in writing to waive such reversion. The City has been advised by the Developer that a certificate of occupancy will not be issued for the Restaurant by June 1, 2006, and the Developer has requested a 30 -day extension to obtain such certificate of occupancy. Under the Development Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment to Development Agreement, if such certificate of occupancy is not issued by June 1, 2006, the Restaurant site automatically reverts to the City unless the City waives such reversion.

By way of background, the developer, Amcon St. Anthony, LLC, turned the building over to the operator, St. Anthony Restaurant Group, Inc., on or about February 1, 2006. Application was made by the operator to the Health Department on February 10, 2006. The operator did not receive any written communication until March 5, 2006 at which time they received from the Minnesota Health Department a Notice of No Approval and some minor changes that had to be made to the plans. The application was re -submitted and finally approved on March 23. 2006. The applicant was also required to make an application with the State Licensing Department for plumbing and electrical. A plumber was hired and application was made on March 16, 2006 with the State of Minnesota. The applicant paid a double fee which was necessary to expedite the application within a seven day period. The check was not cashed by the State of Minnesota until March 25, 2006. The applicant continued to have numerous problems with the State Plumbing Licensing Department. The Department explained that they had 3,600 applicants this spring. The Licensing Department lost the plans two times and they had to be submitted on two separate occasions. Suite 200 e 2855 Anthony Lane South @ St. Anthony, MN 55418 Fax: (612) 788-9879 www.fos4Qrbrever.com Mr. Michael Mornson Page 2 May 2, 2006 The local plumbing inspector, Devin White, did not move forward with approval of the plumbing plans until he received notification from the State of Minnesota. As a result of the delay, through the State of Minnesota, the entire process has been delayed five to six weeks. Before concrete floor could be laid, the inground plumbing had to be approved by Mr. White. Therefore, the delay in the process of starting any interior construction was delayed for that five to six week period. Because of the delay, construction plans are thirty days delayed. Where the operator was confident that this could be completed by the end of May, it now will be delayed until the end of June. In any discussions with the operator, his plan is to have the Certificate of Occupancy requested and completed by the end of June. He will then train his staff following the 4"' of July with an anticipated opening date in the second week of July 2006. As you will recall, receipt of the Certificate of Occupancy is the triggering event for completion. Pursuant to our telephone conversation, Paul Tucci and I would like to meet you and , discuss this matter on Wednesday, May 3, 2006 at 1:45. If this meets with your schedule, please so advise me. I await your reply. Since s, Oster RJr : dk cc: P. Tucci G. Petersen DORSEY DORSEY &WHITNEY LLP TO: Michael J. Mornson CC: Jerome P. Gilligan FROM: Audra E. Williams DATE: August 14, 2005 RE: Development Agreement with Amcon St. Anthony, LLC and Request by Amcon St. Anthony, LLC for a Conditional Use Permit Amcon St. Anthony, LLC ("Amcon") has submitted an application to the City of St. Anthony (the "City") for a conditional use permit asking that the City allow Amcon to construct a 4,500 square foot restaurant within 250 feet of residential property. The City of St. Anthony has asked for a memo summarizing the issues this request raises in light of the above -referenced Development Agreement. The Development Agreement mandates that the Restaurant (as defined in the Development Agreement) to be constructed be 6,000 square feet in size. Amcon has proposed constructing a 4,500 square foot restaurant and paying the City a fee of $150,000.00 for this failure to satisfy the terms of the Development Agreement and to compensate the City for the resulting loss of tax revenue. The City has previously granted a conditional use permit to Amcon for construction of a 6,000 square foot restaurant at this location. The site plan has been revised so that the 4,500 square foot building will be moved further to the east than previously contemplated for the larger building, thus requiring another conditional use permit. The City is under no obligation to issue the requisite conditional use permit pursuant to the Development Agreement. In addition to the conditional use permit, Amcon has asked that the City agree to amend Development Agreement, documenting the revised requirements for the Restaurant. In addition to the square footage requirement, the Development Agreement also required that the Restaurant carry a liquor license, provide charitable gambling, and be bound by lease not later than September 1, 2004. Amcon has failed to lease the Restaurant to date, and the City will have an option to purchase the restaurant pad from Amcon for a purchase price of $100, beginning on September 1, 2005 and continuing until a lease is signed. By amending the Development Agreement as Amcon has requested, the City is waiving its option to purchase the Restaurant parcel at a bargain price. It may also be waiving any remedies it might have with respect to specific performance under the existing agreement. 4839-6656-307211 8/14/2005 4:31 PM W DORSEY & WHITNEY LLP FIDAN - B&dderr a1•tat,� : Erea'to df value.

He stated thesb'�' request should be held., --,.-The request for the Amendment to 6 the Developer's Agreement, Item" VII. A. must be moved up to the, next item for discussion. 7 8 VII. GENERAL BUSINESS OF COUNCIL 9 A. Resolution 05-069; Amendment to developer's qgreement with Ameon St. Anthony. 10 Mr. Mornson explained a letter was presented to him before the meeting that states the applicant 11 will provide the City with $50,000 to amend the Agreement. He said he had a letter from legal 12 counsel that outlines the City's options. He noted eight resolutions were prepared for 13 consideration for this item. 14 15 Councilmember Horst questioned if the agreement is amended as stated, whether the developer 16 would have eight months to complete the project with the same kind of terms that the City would 17 take the property back if this provision isn't met. Mr. Mornson said this is something that could 18 be negotiated. It is not stated now. 19 20 Councilmember Horst said that based on the track record, it should be included. Mr. Mornson 21 said that if the Council chooses to proceed on that, it should be included in the motion and 22 specific terms should be noted. 23 24 Councilmember Gray asked for an explanation for the difference of $50,000 being offered now 25 and $150,000 offered in June to amend the agreement. Mr. Tucci explained in June they were 26 asking for a major modification. Now they are back to the originally approved plan, basically. 27 He said they had a discussion with Ehlers on the reduced tax amount to the City due to the 28 building size, and the impact was under $1,000 per year. . They tried to estimate what the tax 29 implication was and determined the amount of $ 50,000. The taxes should have already been 30 paid for a year on this project. 31 32 Mr. Tucci explained in regards to landscaping with this building they have an integrated 33 landscape plan to integrate what the City will do in the right of way. At the Planning 34 Commission meeting, there was discussion that the developer needs to make sure the sidewalk 35 going around the building connects. That was left to discussion with Staff. He suggested that 36 Guy with Village Pub can explain further. He said they learned from the last proposal that this 37 body seems to have a preference to have the restaurant on the pad where it was first approved. 38 They also learned that the Council was concerned that it would become more of a pub at 3,500 39 square feet. At 6,000 square feet, it seemed too big for a restaurant, so they now arrived at a size 40 of 4,500 square feet. He said they will specify in the lease that a 50150 ratio of liquor and food 41 sales must be maintained. The architect is ready to start drawings tomorrow if this is approved. 42 He said he would like to begin the site prep work tomorrow. He noted the condition of having 43 the project complete in eight months was an oversight on his part. 44 45 Bob Foster, attorney for applicant and resident, said he asked Guy Peterson of Jackson Street Bar 46 and Grill to attend the meeting. He invited Mr. Peterson to explain why it will be a 47 neighborhood restaurant rather than a bar. M City Council Regular Meeting Minutes August 23, 2005 Page 7 2 Mr. Guy Peterson, applicant, said the restaurant will look more like an Applebee's. He noted 3 that a 50% food/liquor ratio must be kept by St. Anthony ordinance. He said his goal is to have 4 the building look like a restaurant and not a bar. 5 6 Councilmember Horst said he is concerned about it being in a shopping center location. In the 7 last discussion you were planning on a pub atmosphere. Now, it is planned to look more like an 8 Applebee's. He asked how he -plans to accomplish that, and how much will be spent for the 9 interior improvements. Mr. Peterson responded the interior will cost approximately $300,000. 10 The bar seating is very small. The inside will be very open and lighted. He said by contrast, the 11 Jackson Street Bar & Grill has a long bar. He said they never proposed to put a Jackson Street 12 Bar & Grill there. He further noted they were limited to what they could put in the Jackson f 1-4 - 113 Street 'bar and I t Will 'because it was an old hardware store. 14 15 Councilmember Horst said he was concerned that it should look people friendly. He said 16 $300.,000 seems like a low budget. Mr. Peterson said he will do a lot of the work. He agreed the 17 amount is on the low end. He said he will do a lot of work themselves because they are also a 18 construction company. 19 20 Mr. Tucci added that Mr. Peterson's $300,000 is above what they are putting into the base 21 building. 22 23 Councilmember Horst asked if they have an idea of what the restaurant will look like. Mr. Tucci 24 answered they do. The upgrading of the HVAC, electrical, etc. is all in the basic package. For 25 this type of operation, $300,000 is on the low side, but with Mr. Peterson doing their own work, 26 the amount is average. 27 28 Councilmember Horst said he was concerned that it will look cheap with cheap furnishings. Mr. 29 Peterson said the inside will be all wood. 30 31 Councilmember Horst said what he saw at the Jackson Street Bar and Grill is not up to the City's 32 standards. He said he wants to see this location be more upscale. 33 34 Mr. Peterson said there will be dark redwood inside and it will be a more upscale type restaurant. 35 He offered to provide samples. He added that the floor will be 12" x. 12" ceramic tile. 36 37 Councilmember Gray pointed out that the proposal states the operator would have the option to 38 cancel the lease with the Sports Boosters if it drives the food ration below the 50% minimum. 39 Mr. Peterson said if they are under 50%, they would not be operating. 40 41 Councilmember Gray asked how that would be determined. 42 43 Mr. Foster said it seemed clear that the concern was this be an upscale restaurant. He stated that 44 one of their concerns was that including the pull tab operation in there is historically in other 45 places more of a bar crowd than a restaurant crowd. He said their first priority is to have this be 46 a restaurant rather than a bar. If it is a successful pull tab operation, this may cause it to be more 47 of a bar than a restaurant. He said they were caught in a Catch-22. The priority will be to make W City Council Regular Meeting Minutes August 23, 2005 Page 8 1 this a restaurant and as a result, they were concerned that the pull tab operation may suffer. He 2 said they felt they had to choose to stress the restaurant. 3 4 Mayor Faust said if this were the original plan we wouldn't be here discussing this. He said the 5 Catch-22 is one they created. The developer brought that on themselves. 6 7 Mr. Foster said if this were a Spectators, in a lot of their locations, they are more of a bar than a 8 restaurant. In St. Anthony, they would not allow that. Many of those that play pull tabs are 9 more bar patrons than restaurant patrons. They had to meet the 50% food ratio. 10 11 Mayor Faust commented that restaurant operations at 6,000 square feet do not have the issue of 12 bar vs. food issues. 13 14 Councilmember Horst stated the issue ofpull tabs seems to be unenforceable. He said the 15 applicant is stating intentions of making the bar sales secondary. The pull tabs will either be a 16 success or the Sports Boosters will find a different location. He questioned whether the fact that 17 pull tabs will be in the location is part of the agreement at all. 18 19 Mr. Tucci said he drafted that letter. He wanted to make the point that when he negotiates the 20 lease with the Sports Boosters, the option will be there in the event that it becomes an issue with 21 the owner, or the Council. He said they want this to be a restaurant first, and not a bar first. He 22 offered to change the language. 23 24 Councilmember Stille stated all Councilmembers are familiar with the Jackson Street Bar & Grill 25 in Anoka. He asked what other restaurants Mr. Peterson owned. Mr. Peterson replied they have 26 another restaurant and grill in Oak Grove. He stated they have not done anything like this 27 before, and they are trying to expand. 28 29 Mayor Faust asked if the basement is used at the Jackson Street Bar & Grill. Mr. Peterson said it 30 houses the office, walk in cooler, and the freezers. 31 32 Mayor Faust asked if the other bar they own is the SR®. Mr. Peterson confirmed it is. 33 34 Mayor Faust noted that all of Anoka County allows smoking. Hennepin County is having a 35 debate. Mayor Faust said he does like the fact that no smoking is allowed. He added that the 36 City may take up some kind of smoking ban if Hennepin County relents. However, he said he 37 doesn't see any sentiment to change to go to smoking now. 38 39 Mayor Faust indicated there are two proposals for the amendment; one to approve the change to 40 the Amendment and one to deny. 41 42 Discussion 43 Councilmember Horst stated the City has been working on this for almost two years. Amcon has A r been a good partner in creating at least some activity and at least a start of what will be 45 redevelopment on this end of the city. He said he thinks it is time for this proposal, and it is one 46 that we've wanted them to do all along except for the 1,500 feet. He said he thinks it is time this AN, City Council Regular Meeting Minutes August 23, 2005 Page 9 1 project come to completion. He urged the Council to accept this Development Agreement 2 change and work with Amcon in creating the shopping center. 3 1 1 1 1 4 Councilmember Stifle related the story of Spectators in 2003. He said he has heard a lot of this 5 before as far as permits being applied for and the lease being almost ready to sign. He said he 6 would like to see what is out there in terms of options and opening up for a Request for Proposal. 7 He said the City has come this far and should see what other options are there. He is concerned 8 that the operator has not done this before, and is concerned it could revert back to a bar. He 9 would encourage this applicant to participate in the RFP. 10 11 Councilmember Thuesen said he was glad to hear this would be a neighborhood restaurant vs. a 12 neighborhood bar. He said this cannot be emphasized enough. The establishment being run in 13 Anoka is a different time and place, and he said he is willing to recognize that. He said he 14 believes the operator that wants to build this establishment understands what we are looking for. 15 This process to this point has been painful. He said he is leaning toward approving this 16 operation. He added that he thinks the potential is there for a neighborhood restaurant. 17 18 Councilmember Gray agreed with Councilmembers Horst and Thuesen; he said he thinks it is 19 time to get going. He said he likes the concept and believes it will be a good neighborhood 20 restaurant. This is within walking distance from many residential units and apartments. He 21 noted he has heard from apartment residents that they would like to have something to walk to. 22 The developer is willing to pay the difference on taxes, and he thinks the Council should 23 proceed. 24 25 Mayor Faust indicated he did not feel an obligation to do anything for the sake of speed. He said 26 there is a reason there is a Developer's Agreement. We are at the 11th hour of the second 27 extension with the Developer's Agreement. He stated he didn't find that Amcon, or whomever 28 the operator is has been forthright with the Council. He said he would like to see what is out 29 there as well. He said he doesn't doubt Mr. Peterson's ability to do what he does. Jackson Street 30 Bar and Grill is a bar and SRO is a greater bar. He commented he heard that 6,000 square feet is 31 the size needed to run a restaurant with a liquor operation. He said he has been told that 32 Applebee's has a 6,000 square foot building. He indicated that 3,900 square feet on the main 33 floor plus a basement is used for the Jackson Street Bar, so it is evident he uses more than 4,500 34 square feet at that location. He also stated there has been time to provide sketches since June. 35 This Developer's Agreement has been trusted for two years. Now he said he would be inclined 36 to take possession of the land and would prefer to direct the City Attorney to do that. 37 38 Councilmember Horst noted that when this proposal was first created, it was because the City 39 went out for bids for proposals. No one came forward right away. The first company that came 40 forward was rejected due to a report by Ehlers. Ehlers found other developers that were 41 interested, including Amcon. Amcon is one of the top developers in the Cities and they are well 42 respected. He said he cannot explain the lack of communication in this project, but he said he 43 has faith in this operation. He said that if bids are requested again, there may not be a response, 44 and time will be wasted. He would like to keep this good partner. He said the City should stop 45 adversarial looking at Amcon and work with them. 46 M City Council Regular Meeting Minutes August 23, 2005 Page 10 1 Mayor Faust said that the reason there is a Developer's Agreement is because it is adversarial by 2 nature. He stated that we have not wasted time; they have. He said he is not willing to settle. 3 He added that it is a 6,000 square foot parcel by the Developer's Agreement and not 4,500 4 square feet. 5 6 Councilmember Stille said we could put the project back out there. The market may dictate that 7 a restaurant does not belong on that site. He said he would like to see what the market says. 8 9 Councilmember Horst said the fact that no one else wants to put a restaurant on that site doesn't 10 mean a restaurant doesn't belong there. It mean's to him that no one wants a 4,500 square foot 11 parcel. He said we have gone far down the road with this group; let them finish their work. 12 13 Motion by Councilmember Horst, seconded by Councilmember Gray, to adopt Resolution 05- 14 069, re: Amendment to the Development Agreement between City of St. Anthony and Amcon, 15 LLC. with payment of $50,000 to the City upon issuance of a permit. 16 17 Councilmember Thuesen requested clarification of the issue in front of them. is 19 Mr. Tucci explained the $50,000 payment is upon execution of the amendment. He said they 20 would have approximately six weeks to file for a building permit and then eight months from the 21 approval of the permit to get the building done. If this is approved tonight, he said they are ready 22 to start the plans tomorrow. 23 24 Councilmember Horst asked if he was publicly stating that should this Developer's Agreement 25 be amended, he will lease this and it will work out. Mr. Peterson confirmed it will work out. 26 27 Mr. Mornson suggested specific dates be included in the Developer's Agreement. He reminded 28 the Council and the applicants that they must apply for a liquor license. 29 30 Councilmember Horst suggested removing the "whereas" point on the Resolution regarding the 31 pull tab operations. This point is in the Developer's Agreement. 32 33 Councilmember Stille raised the issue of the sixth "whereas" point regarding the issuance of 34 issuance of a building permit. Mr. Gilligan stated the building must have a certificate of 35 occupancy by June 1, 2006 and the Resolution should be changed to reflect this. 36 37 Ayes — 3, Nays — 2 (Stille and Mayor Faust). oti® carried® 38 39 D.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the, United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Governrnent Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting no In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota'. internal control over financial reporting in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements and not to provide an opinion on the, internal control over financial reporting. However, we noted certain matters involving the internal control over financial reporting and its operation that we consider to be reportable conditions. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating to significant deficiencies in the design or operad'on of the internal control over financial reporting that,, in our judgment, could adversely affect the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota's ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data consist with the assertions of management. in the financial statements. Reportable conditions are described in the accompanying schedule of findings as items 2005-1 thru 2005-6. A material weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions.

However, of the reportable conditions described above, we consider items 2005-2 and 2005- 03 to be material weaknesses. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts.

White Bear Lake, Minnesota April 7, 2006 Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and other batters Page 3 Criteria: Generally, a system of internal control contemplates separation of duties such that no individual has responsibility to execute a transaction, have physical access to the related assets, and have responsibility or authority to record the transaction. Condition: Utility bills are produced, payments are collected, and receipts are posted to the utility system by a single employee. There is no documented approval process for adjustments to the utility billing system and exception reports are not being created and reviewed for errors within the system. Additionally, disbursements are entered into the accounting system, checks are written, and checks are mailed by a single employee. Cause: The condition is due to the limited number of staff and is common to cities of this size. Effect: The lack of ideal segregation of duties subjects the City to a higher risk that errors or fraud could occur and not be detected in a timely manner. Management ,Response: The City does their best to try and rotate or fill in for the different areas. The City is taking steps to ensure that all adjustments that are made for utility billing are approved and reviewed for accuracy by the Public works Director. The City will also review exception reports throughout the year for any potential errors, corrections or adjustments. W Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Page 4 2005-2 Lack of Timely Reconciliation of AccountI. Criteria: Throughout the year there should be proper reconciliation of accounts to a subsidiary ledger or bank statement, and prior year accruals should be reversed. Condition: The City has not been performing timely reconciliations and adjustments to the accounts for utility receivables, miscellaneous receivables and payable accounts, liquor inventory and their COBRA insurance payable. Additionally, due to and due from other funds balances have not been reconciled nor have prior year balances been repaid. Cause: Unknown. Effect: The lack of proper reconciliation of accounts throughout the year makes it difficult to determine when a difference arose and how to resolve it in a timely manner. Management Response: The City is taking steps to properly reconcile the above accounts on a regular basis. In addition, the City intends to eliminate the due to and due from other fund balances by establishing a single checking account for all City, Liquor and HRA activities. In Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Page 5 Criteria: Revenues and related expenditures generally are required to be reported gross rather than as a net amount. Condition: The City has not been reporting certain activity due to the netting of the, revenues against the related expenditures. Certain grant reimbursements were being coded against the expense account that was being reimbursed. Developer reimbursement of City debt service costs were netted against the expenditures. Additionally, debt service activity was netted against escrow account activity for the crossover bonds. Cause: Unknown. Effect: Revenues and expenditures were understated. Management Response: The City will correct this going forward by establishing separate revenue and expenditure accounts for all grant activity, developer reimbursements and escrow activities. Hm Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Page 6 Criteria: Grant activity requires compliance with various grant agreement provisions. Additionally, revenue for expenditure driven grants should be recognized in the same fiscal period as the expenditures. Condition: Some of the City's grants are monitored and reported by staff outside of the finance department. This decentralized system does not allow for oversight by the finance department which would facilitate proper revenue recognition, appropriate monitoring of grant compliance provisions, and accurate preparation of grant financing reporting forms. Cause: The City has a decentralized system of grant monitoring. Effect: Grant revenues were not being recognized or accrued properly throughout the year. Management Response: The City is implementing procedures to centralize the grant paperwork. Copies of all grants will be forwarded and kept in the finance department. The finance director will monitor all grant provisions, and ensure that accurate preparation of grant financing reporting forms are done in a timely fashion. 7-1 rc,eport on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Page 7 2005-5 Capital Asset Depreciation Calculation Errors Criteria: The total accumulated depreciation should not exceed the capital assets cost to the city. Condition: Some of the liquor store's capital assets were depreciated more than the asset's cost to the City. Cause: The City's capital asset system is not calculating depreciation correctly. Effect: The City's accumulated depreciation is overstated an immaterial amount in the Liquor Fund. Management. Response: The City will correct this going forward and will work closely with the softwa-re vendor to ensure that the capital asset system is calculating depreciation correctly. WR Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Page 8 r, 6 Unreconciled CapitalSystem/Unidentified Criteria: All capital assets should be recorded in the City's capital asset system at historical cost. Additionally, land should be recorded separate from the related depreciable assets. Condition: City owned land (with the exception of the fire station land) is not identifiable within the City's capital asset system. Additionally, the capital asset systems' December 31, 2004 amounts do' not agree to the prior years' financial statements. Cause: The City did not segregate land from the other components of capital assets within the City's capital asset system. Additionally, the City recorded 2003 and 2004 improvements at the bonded amount rather than at historical cost and did not input the adjusted asset balances into their capital asset system. The City also did not update the capital asset system for audit adjustments to other City asset values for 2003 and 2004. Effect: The City's capital assets system does not agree to the amounts reported in the financial statements. Management .Response: The City is implementing procedures to identify the original cost of City owned land. In addition, the City will identify and correct road improvement projects that were recorded at the bonded amount rather than actual cost. Im CITY OF ST.
