ADJOURNMENT BACKGROUND MEMO FOR THE HUGO CITY COUNCIL MEETING MONDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2020 D. 1 Minutes for the September 21, 2020 City Council Meeting D.2 Minutes for the September 24, 2020 Public Works Ground Breaking Ceremony Staff recommends Council approve the above meeting minutes as presented. F.1 Update on COVID-19 City Response and Grant Approval The City of Hugo has applied for and has been awarded a COVID-19 Response Grant for Election Administrators from The Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL). CTCL is a nonpartisan organization that provides technical assistance to election administrators across the country and has established a grant program to support municipalities with a demonstrated need in the administration of safe elections during the pandemic. The grant funds can be used to cover certain 2020 Election expenses incurred between June 15, 2020 and December 31, 2020 that are associated with the safe administration of election responsibilities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Grant funds can be used to procure personal protective equipment and disinfecting supplies for poll workers and voters, educate voters on safe voting policies and procedures, provide additional training for poll workers on how to safely administer elections in the midst of the pandemic, and pay for increased costs for polling site cleaning and sanitation. Staff recommends that the City Council accept the $5,000.00 COVID-19 Response Grant for Election Administrators from The Center for Tech and Civic Life. G.1 Approve Claims Roster Staff recommends Council approve the Claims Roster as presented. G.2 Approve Annual Performance Review for Public Works Worker Adam Greeder In 2007, Adam Greeder was hired by the City of Hugo as one of its summer seasonal maintenance workers in the Hugo Public Works Department. On October 6, 2008, Adam became part of the department as a full-time employee as an apprentice for the Public Works Maintenance Worker. Public Works Director Scott Anderson recommends Council approve the annual performance review for Public Works Worker Adam Greeder. G.3 Approve Resolution Appointing Election Judges for 2020 General Election State Statute requires the governing body to approve the appointment of election judges at least 25 days prior to the election. City Clerk Michele Lindau has recruited 56 judges to work the 2020 General Election. This is considerable more than what was needed in past elections due to the requirements of COVID-19. All election judges will receive 2.5 hours of training, which includes COVID related instructions. Staff recommends the Council approve the resolution appointing election judges for the 2020 General Election. G.4 Approve Renewal of Mining Permit for Mike Atkinson The Mining Permit for Mike Atkinson on his property located on the south side of 147th Street between Irish and Hyde Avenue expired on August 2, 2020. Atkinson has applied for a renewal the permit for another two years. For the past several years, the site has been used to stockpile material, with no mining activity taking place. When the permit was renewed in 2012, the Council allowed the Atkinsons to move forward with the Mining Permit renewal process without all the conditions being met until the time mining operations began again, due to the cost of meeting those conditions. The requirements not being met are to biannually provide a topographic map of the site, calculation of stockpiled material, amount of granular material left on site to be mined, and a reclamation plan. Staff has found very minimal activity on the site to require those conditions be met for the renewal of his permit. Staff recommends Council approve the Mining Permit for Mike Atkinson for property located on 147th Street North with the condition that all requirements in the permit be met when mining activity begins again. G.5 Approve Resolutions Approving the Site Plan, CUP Amendment, and Variance for Grundhofer’s Old Fashion Meats Located at 15449 Forest Boulevard North Spencer Grundhofer has applied for a site plan, CUP amendment, and variance for Grundhofer’s Old Fashion Meats located at 15449 Forest Boulevard North. The requests are to allow a 2,450 square foot addition to the existing 2,880 square foot building on site. The existing buildings on site are legal nonconforming in regard to the side yard building setback and the applicant is requesting a 12 foot side yard setback, where 30 feet is required for the proposed addition. The applicant is also requesting the existing meat market and meat processing facility CUP be amended to reflect the new site plan. The Planning Commission reviewed the request and held a public hearing at their September 24, 2020 meeting. No one spoke at the public hearing. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the site plan, CUP amendment, and variance for Grundhofer’s Old Fashioned Meats located at 15449 Forest Boulevard North. G.6 Approve Resolution to Continue Participating in the Met Council Livable Communities Act   The City of Hugo has previously elected to be a participant in the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act (LCA) Program. Participation on the program provides the City with an opportunity to compete for grants and loans to support activities that help the City meet its affordable and life cycle housing goals, clean up polluted sites, and support demonstration projects linking jobs, housing, and transit. The City received demonstration grants in 2004 and 2007 for Hugo Downtown redevelopment project planning. The Metropolitan Council would like the City to formally adopt LCA goals for the next 10 years through 2030, which are consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The City must do this to remain eligible to apply for the Metropolitan Council’s LCA grants. Staff recommends the City Council approve the resolution adopting the affordable and life cycle housing goals for 2021 – 2030. G.7 Approve Replacement of 2009 Toro Groundsmaster Area Mower Public Works Department has been exploring options to replace its current area wide mower. This mower is used to mow the grass in our large parks like Hanifl Fields, Beaver Ponds, Lions Park, as well as Oakshore Park. Staff recommends Council approve the purchase of a Kubota L6060 Tractor with turf tires and various attachments from Olson Power and Equipment in the amount of $100,154.34. G.8 Approve Replacement of 2008 John Deer Zero Turn Mower Public Works Department has been exploring options to replace its current John Deer Zero Turn mower. This mower is used to mow parks in the summer and also used to blow and broom snow in the winter months. Staff recommends Council approve the purchase of a Ferrris ZT 37/61 Zero Turn Mower from Olson Power and Equipment in the amount of $15,400. H.1 Approve Resolution Providing for the Issuance and Sale of $8,000,000 General Obligation Capital Improvement Plan Bonds Bids for the sale of these bonds will be accepted until 11:00 a.m. on Monday, October 5th. Paul Steinman with Baker Tilly will present the bid tabulation to the City Council along with a recommendation for awarding the sale. The resolution will be prepared based on the bids and will be presented to the City Council at the meeting. I.1 Goodview Avenue Improvement Project Assessment Hearing At its September 8, 2020 meeting, the Council adopted the resolution declaring costs to be assessed for the Goodview Avenue Improvement Project, and scheduled the hearing on the proposed assessments for this evening. The Notice of Assessment Hearing has been published in the official newspaper and mailed to the owners of each parcel described in the assessment roll at least two weeks prior to the hearing. Engineer Mark Erichson will present a summary of the project, the assessment process, and related costs of the project. Staff recommends the Mayor open the public hearing to take all comments and approve the resolution adopting assessments for the Goodview Avenue Improvement Project. J.1 Lions Park Design Development Consultant Contracts   The City Council adopted a Master Plan and Feasibility Study for Lions Park at their July 20, 2020 meeting. Consultant proposals were received for the design development of Lions Park. The proposals do not include preparation of construction documents. The consultants will work with multiple stakeholder groups to develop the design of the pavilion, playground, and remaining park site to 50% with estimates of probable costs. This work is anticipated to take place this fall, with final designs being brought to the Council in January or February 2021. Approval is recommended of two contracts with WSB and a proposal from HCM Architects to develop the design of Lions Park. K.1 Approve Resolution Reducing the Speed Limit on Goodview Avenue North In May 2019, Minnesota State Legislature passed a bill granting cities the authority to set speed limits under their jurisdiction. This statute went into effect August 1, 2019. The purpose of this memo is to provide the City Council with background information on the speed limit rules and to provide information on what next steps they would need to follow to implement a speed change on Goodview Avenue South of Egg Lake Road. Goodview Avenue (south of County Road 8) is currently posted as a 50 MPH roadway. Improvements completed along the roadway with the 2020 Goodview Avenue Street Improvement project included widening the road from a 24-foot width to a 26-foot width. To accommodate MnDOT’s policy for a state aid roadway with a design speed of 50 MPH or higher, the wider roadway allows for two 11-foot driving lanes and two 2-foot paved shoulders. Should the City Council determine that they would be in favor of reducing speed limit on Goodview Avenue to 40 MPH (consistent with Goodview Avenue north of County Road 8), the driving lane could be reduced to 10 feet, allowing an additional foot of paved shoulder on both sides of the roadway. The wider shoulder would provide a safer route for pedestrians and bicyclists, which was a large concern for residents participating in the public hearings for this project. Staff recommends Council approve the resolution reducing the speed limit along that portion of Goodview to 40 mph. M.1 Yellow Ribbon Network Update Council Member Chuck Haas and Council Member Phil Klein will report to Council on the Yellow Ribbon Network activities held recently. N.1 Arcand Park Grand Opening on Wednesday, October 7, 2020 Council has scheduled a meeting to attend the Grand Opening of Arcand Park on Wednesday, October 7, 2020, at 3 p.m. The park is located at 13246 Fondant Trail North. N.2 Lions Park Community Workshop on Monday, October 12, 2020 Council has scheduled a meeting to attend the Lions Park Community Workshop on Monday, October 12, 2020 at 7 p.m. This meeting will be held virtually. N.3 Schedule Interviews for Fire Chief Position for Week of October 12, 2020 Fire Chief Kevin Colvard will be resigning his position on the Fire Department effective January 1, 2021. Staff has advertised for his replacement and recommends Council schedule interview sometime during the week of October 12-16, 2020. O.

Approve Proclamation Proclaiming October as Toastmasters Month The City of Hugo had been contacted by a member of a Toastmasters group in White Bear Lake requesting the City of Hugo proclaim the month of October as Toastmasters month Adoption of Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for September 21, 2020 Page 4 of 6 the Consent Agenda approved the proclamation proclaiming October as Toastmasters Month Approve “Adelaide Landing Park” as the Name of the New Park in Adelaide Landing At their meetings of August 19 and September 16, 2020, the Parks Commission recommended that the new park in Adelaide Landing be named “Adelaide Landing Park” and the sports field to be named in honor of the family that farmed the land for generations previous to development, “Arthur Arcand Field”. Hass removed this item from the Consent Agenda stating the naming of parks should keep in mind the sense of where the property originates, especially if the family had made great contributions. He stated the Arcands were volunteers, served in the military, were long time farmers, have been around for decades and generations, and their history should be preserved. Weidt agreed and added that the park was connected to three other neighborhoods and he didn’t want to give the impression that it was only for Adelaide residents. He stated he didn’t think it should be named after a marketing team that came up with the name Adelaide. He said it was important that residents moving in knew that there was a purpose of the land before it was developed and it should be remembered. Klein agreed with Weidt and Haas saying “Arcand” would be a fitting name for the park because it provided a small town community feel, and the relationship to the past was important. He said that folks who made the community what it is today should be honored. Petryk agreed that it was very fitting to name it “Arcand” park. She acknowledged that the Parks Commission had a discussion about this and she asked Parks Planner Shayla Denaway what their concerns were. Denaway replied that she felt the primary factor was to provide directions and give indication to where the park was located. She said from her experience, the development name doesn’t really help since lots of people don’t know what the developments are named. Weidt added that he had been involved in the approval of many neighborhoods and doesn’t remember most names. Miron agreed to maintaining some of the history when naming parks and suggested the park naming policy be reconsidered for future opportunities. Haas made motion, Klein seconded, to name the park “Arcand Park” and to construct a marker to give historical prospective to those attending the park. Roll call vote – all ayes. Motion carried. Yellow Ribbon Network Update Council Member Chuck Haas and Council Member Phil Klein reported to Council on the Yellow Ribbon Network activities held recently and showed some photos.

DATE: September 30, 2020 for the City Council Meeting of October 5, 2020. ZONING: General Business District (C-2) 60-DAY REVIEW DEADLINE: October 16, 2020 1. PLANNING COMMISSION UPDATE: The Planning Commission held a public hearing and considered the request at its Thursday, September 24, 2020 meeting. No one spoke at the public hearing. Staff recommended approval of the applications, subject to the conditions listed in the resolutions. The Planning Commission discussed the proposal and recommended approval of the site plan, CUP amendment, and variance for Grundhofer’s Old Fashion Meats to the City Council. 2. DESCRIPTION OF REQUEST: Grundhofer’s Old Fashion Meats is requesting site plan approval for an approximately 2,450 square foot addition to the existing 2,880 square foot building on site. The addition will be used to receive product and expand their coolers. The existing meat market retail area will remain the same. The addition will also connect to the adjacent garage behind the market. The existing buildings on site are legal nonconforming in regard to the side yard setback requirement and the applicant is requesting a variance from the side yard setback requirements for the addition. The applicant is proposing a 12 foot side yard setback, where 30 feet is required by ordinance. The applicant is also requesting approval of a CUP amendment. The existing conditional use permit was approved in 2006 and allows the meat processing facility as an accessory use to the meat market in accordance to the site plan dated September 28, 2006. The applicant is requesting the conditional use permit be amended to reflect the new site plan. Grundhofer’s Site Plan, CUP Amendment, & Variance Page 2 3. CONTEXT: A. Surrounding Land Use and Zoning The property is zoned General Business District (C-2) and is guided as Commercial (COM) in the 2040 Land Use Plan. The properties to the north and south are also zoned C-2. The properties to the west, across Highway 61, and to the east are zoned Single-Family Detached Residential (R-3). The Oneka Ponds development is directly east of the property. B. Existing Site Characteristics The property is 1.41 acres and is relatively flat. There is existing landscaping on site that acts as a buffer from the commercial use and adjacent residential neighborhood to the east. 4. BACKGROUND: In 2006, the City Council approved a conditional use permit to allow the meat processing facility as an accessory use to the meat market. Meat markets are a permitted use in the C-2 zoning district, but requires a conditional use permit for meat processing. The City Code defines meat processing facilities as a facility that processes non-inspected USDA meats not including slaughtering of animals. The meat processing facility can only be allowed as an accessory use to the meat market and may not exceed in floor area of the meat market. 5. ANALYSIS: A. Level of City Discretion in Decision-Making The City’s discretion in approving or denying a site plan is limited to whether or not the proposed project complies with the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance requirements. If it meets these standards, the City must then approve the site plan. The City’s discretion in approving or denying a conditional use permit amendment is limited to whether or not the proposed application meets the standards outlined in the City’s Comprehensive Land Use Regulations. If it meets these standards, the City must then approve the conditional use permit. The City’s discretion in approving or denying a variance is limited to whether or not the proposed project meets the standards in the Zoning Ordinance for a variance. The City has a higher level of discretion with a variance because the burden of proof is on the applicant to show that they meet the standards in the ordinance. B. Conditional Use Permit Amendment Meat Processing Facility The applicant is proposing to revise the site plan that was approved with the existing conditional use permit to include the proposed addition. The addition will be used to receive product and Grundhofer’s Site Plan, CUP Amendment, & Variance Page 3 expand the cooler and freezer areas, the existing meat market will remain the same. The existing conditional use permit allows the meat processing facility to be an accessory use to the meat market. The meat processing facility portion of the site is to remain the same. It is in staff’s opinion that the applicant meets all of the requirements necessary to approve the CUP amendment for the meat processing facility on the property. C. Variance The existing buildings on site are legal nonconforming and the applicant is requesting a variance from the side yard setback requirements in order to add on to the existing buildings. The applicant is proposing a 12 foot side yard setback, where 30 feet is required by ordinance. Staff used the standards outlined in Section 90-38 of the City Code and found the following: (1) Law. The variance as requested is permissible by law. The proposed variance is permissible by law. (2) Practical Difficulties. The applicant for a variance shall establish that there are practical difficulties in complying with the provisions of the zoning regulations. The term “Practical Difficulties” as used in the granting of a variance means: a. Reasonable Use. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the zoning ordinance and; By adding an addition to the existing building, the applicant is proposing to use the property in a reasonable manner. The existing buildings on site do not meet the side yard setback requirements, making a variance request necessary to construct an addition. It is in staff’s opinion that it is reasonable to request an addition to the existing building. b. Unique Circumstances. The plight of property owner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner and; The property is unique in that the existing buildings on site are legal nonconforming to side yard setback requirements. The proposed addition is restricted in location due to the location of existing buildings and the parking lot. c. Character of Neighborhood. The variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the neighborhood. Other neighboring properties are also legal nonconforming to the zoning district regulations and the proposed setback variance would not noticeably alter the character of the area. It is in staff’s opinion that there are practical difficulties in meeting side yard setback requirements and the property owner is proposing to use the property in a reasonable manner by Grundhofer’s Site Plan, CUP Amendment, & Variance Page 4 adding an addition to the existing building. The location of the existing buildings make it infeasible for the addition to meet side yard setback requirements while maintaining operation efficiency on site. (3) Spirit and Intent. The granting of the variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of this chapter and with the policies of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The spirit and intent of the ordinance is to have buildings a reasonable distance from the property lines and roads. The existing buildings and other buildings in the area do not meet the side yard setback requirements, however, the proposed addition is located behind the existing building and away from Highway 61. The variance request would still result in the proposed addition being a reasonable distance from the property line as it would be in line with the existing building and therefore, meet the spirit and intent of the ordinance. (4) Prohibited Use. The variance, if granted, shall not have the effect of allowing any use prohibited in the district. Additions are permitted in the C-2 zoning district. (5) Hazard Consideration. The variance, if granted, shall not permit a lower degree of flood protection than required by this chapter. The variance shall be determined the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief, and the variance shall not be issued within any designated regulatory floodway if any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result. The property is not located within a FEMA designated floodplain. However, the building addition will be required to meet building code regulations regarding low floor separation from the groundwater elevation. (6) Septic and Well Compliance. The sewage treatment system and water system of the subject property is in compliance with city and state codes. The property is served by City sewer and water. It is in staff’s opinion that the application meets the criteria outlined in the City Code to approve a variance. D. Site Plan The application complies with the ordinance standards as follows: Building Setbacks The C-2 zoning district requires a minimum side yard building setback of 30 feet. The applicant is proposing a side yard setback of 12 feet. All other setback requirements are met. Grundhofer’s Site Plan, CUP Amendment, & Variance Page 5 Building Height The C-2 zoning district has a maximum building height of 35 feet. The site plan meets this requirement. Building Coverage and Lot Coverage The ordinance limits lot area to be covered by buildings to 35% and lot area to be covered by impervious surface to 80%. The proposed lot for the site plan complies with this requirement. Landscaping Section 90-181 of the Zoning Ordinance provides landscaping requirements for commercial development. The site plan includes tree and shrub locations and species. The ordinance provides two ways of calculating the required amount of trees and shrubs. One based on the square footage of the building and one based on the perimeter of the site, whichever is greater. In this case staff used the perimeter of the site. In order to meet the landscape requirements, 11 deciduous trees, 6 coniferous trees, 6 ornamental trees, and 36 shrubs are required to be installed. The applicant is using existing and new landscaping to meet the landscaping requirements. The site plan meets the City’s landscaping requirements. Lighting The ordinance requires lighting to consist of cut-off fixtures and for light cast on adjacent property and roads not to exceed ½ foot candle measured at the property line or 1 foot candle measured at the street’s centerline. The ordinance also required the light fixtures, whether pole mounted or wall mounted to be cut-off fixtures. The applicant is proposing LED lights for wall mounted fixtures. The applicant has provided a cut-sheet for both the wall lights and meets the lighting requirements. Fencing and Screening The applicant is proposing a fence along the north side of the building to screen the trash and recycling dumpsters. The applicant is also proposing a fence around the existing ground mechanical equipment on the south side of the building. Staff is comfortable with the applicant removing the fence on the south side and using the proposed shrubs and landscaping to screen the equipment. Streets and Access The site is located along the east side of Highway 61 and has existing access. The applicant is proposing to expand the parking lot. Grundhofer’s Site Plan, CUP Amendment, & Variance Page 6 Parking Section 90-253, Parking and Loading of the City Code determines the number of parking spaces required per site. Parking is determined by gross floor area. There are 15 stalls required for the site and the applicant is proposing 33 stalls, meeting the parking requirements. Building Architecture In August 2011, the City Council adopted the Commercial and Industrial Design Guidelines. These guidelines require four sided architecture and high quality building materials. The existing building is primarily CMU block with brick along the front wall where the main entrance is located. The garage behind the main building uses metal siding. The applicant is proposing to construct the addition with CMU block along the base and EFIS panels along the top. The CMU block will match the proposed fencing and is intended to merge with the existing architecture. The applicant is proposing a flat roof and has an internal drainage system. Staff approval of a material sample board is required prior to issuance of a building material to ensure materials will be cohesive with the existing buildings. Signage The applicant is not proposing to change the signage on site, however, they are adding landscaping around the base of the existing monument sign. Drainage/Grading The proposed additional impervious surface being added to the site is under 10,000 square feet, which is the threshold for meeting stormwater management requirements. However, due to the proximity to the ditch to the east, the applicant is required to meet stormwater management requirements based on disturbed area. The applicant is proposing a rate control basin on the northeast corner of the property, requiring grading within a drainage and utility easement on the adjacent parcel to the east. The applicant can grade within the easement, but is required to get permission from the adjacent property owner prior to any work being done. The applicant is required to enter into a stormwater maintenance agreement with the City and dedicate proper drainage and utility easements over the stormwater basin on site. The applicant is required to address any comments provided by the City Engineer in the redlined comments dated September 21, 2020. Utilities The applicant is using the existing utilities. No modifications are necessary. Wetlands The applicant is not proposing any wetland impacts. Grundhofer’s Site Plan, CUP Amendment, & Variance Page 7 Park Dedication Park Dedication is not required for commercial and industrial developments. 6. CONCLUSION: Staff finds that the proposal meets all the requirements necessary for the City to approve the site plan, variance, and CUP amendment as outlined in the City Code and zoning district regulations, subject to the conditions listed in the attached resolutions. 7.

The existing parking area does not contain curb and gutter and the expansion of the lot coupled with the sights existing grades makes it not practical to add curb and gutter for this site. 3. No changes are proposed for the sanitary and water services to the parcel as part of this project. 4. Detailed redline comments have been provided on the plans and sent to the applicants engineer so they can be addressed in future submittals. Stormwater Management 5. The additional impervious added to this site is under 10,000 sf which is the threshold for meeting stormwater management requirements, however due to the proximity to the ditch to the east they trigger an erosion control rule requiring stormwater water management requirements based on disturbed area. 6. Freeboard from the HWL is met. 7. Additional stormwater plan and model comments have been provided to applicant and will need to be addressed in future submittals for documentation and permitting purposes. Staff is comfortable the site will be meeting stormwater management requirements with the final plan submittal. 8. A stormwater maintenance agreement and drainage and utility easements will be required for the stormwater basin on the site.

SUBJECT: Lions Park Design Development Consultant Contracts DATE: October 1, 2020 for the City Council Meeting of October 5, 2020 1. INTRODUCTION: Three proposals from consultants are being recommended for approval for the design development of Lions Park. 2. BACKGROUND: The City Council adopted a Master Plan and Feasibility Study for Lions Park at their July 20, 2020 meeting. The Parks C ommission discussed next steps at their August 19, 2020 meeting. Proposals were received from consultants for design development of Lions Park to take place this fall. The consultants are proposing to engage the public, this fall, in designing the playground, pavilion, and remaining park site through to 50% plans with probable costs. The anticipated timeline includes presentation of the final designs in January/February 2021. The proposals do not include preparation of construction documents, but that could be authorized by the Council following approval of the developed designs for Lions Park. Playground and Pavilion Site Design: At the Parks Commission meeting of August 19, 2020 a proposal dated August 14, 2020 from WSB was reviewed and recommended for approval. WSB ’s proposal included engagement with two separate stakeholder groups to desi gn the playground and pavilion sites. The proposal includes three meetings with each of the stakeholder groups, staff meetings, conceptual designs, 50% plans, multiple revisions, and a topographical survey at a cost of $57,000. Park Site Design: At the Parks Commission meeting of September 16 , 2020 they reviewed a draft contract from WSB for the remaining park site and recommended approval. WSB ’s proposal i ncludes several meetings and plan revisions to develop the design of the parking lots, trails/sidewalks, skate park Page 2 Lions Park DD Consultants October 5, 2020 relocation, community sports pad. It also includes an asbestos and regulated material assessment for a total cost of $83,300.

The master plan was presented at the joint City of Hugo City Council and Parks Commission on June 29th for review and comment for modifications to finalize the Lions Park Feasibility Study with corresponding cost estimate. The 2020 Master Plan is summarized as follows: Vehicular Circulation: • The City Hall parking lot contains 6 ADA stalls along the front of the building with the remainder of the parking lot to contain approximately 58 parking stalls. The parking lot is configured so that Fitzgerald Ave acts as an entrance drive to the parking lot but the use of the center island does not allow straight through traffic into the parking lot in order to slow traffic. • Fitzgerald Ave north of the City Hall parking lot is shown widened to a 32’ wide urban road with parallel parking along Lions Park containing approximately 9 stalls. The parallel parking stalls are optimal locations for setting up food trucks or other vendors to b e used in conjunction with park lawn activities. These can also serve as a primary entrance into the park space for vehicles for select activities/events. • Upper 146th is shown with a total of approximately 48 to 50 pull-in parking stalls along Lions Park. • Finale Ave is shown as a 28’ wide urban road with approximately 16 parallel parking stalls along Lions Park. • 147th St is shown as a 26’ wide urban road with no parking on the roadway. • The City of Hugo intends to conduct additional street feasibility design studies to determine final road improvements, design and impacts along with overall stormwater strategy and design. • A parking lot (possibly a future phase) is shown in the northwest corner of the park with approximately 60-67 parking stalls. An area is identified for a rain garden, though a future stormwater design will be conducted with the road feasibility study. Page 2 K:\016030-000\Admin\Docs\016030_2020-0710_Master Plan Summary.docx Pedestrian Circulation: • A 10’ wide trail is shown on the north side of 147th St with two trail options for pedestrian circulation to connect to the Hardwood Creek Regional Trail. o One option extends the trail on the north side of 147th St all the way to County Road 61 to align with the 147th St trail east of County Road 61. o An alternate option would divert pedestrians to cross over 147th St at the intersection of 147th and Finale at a crosswalk and then extend east through Lions Park along 147th, route south along Fitzgerald and connect to the HCRT by City Hall. While this trail option skirts the park perimeter, it has the potential for some conflict points with park and city hall users. • Pedestrian walks/trails extend along the entire perimeter of Lions park to provide access from parking areas to destination points within the park and creates a large loop. • An internal park trail loop extends around the open lawn area and provides access to the various destination points within the park. • Trails are shown to be 10’ wide and bituminous. Some routes may be concrete in which case they may be constructed at an 8’ width. • Entry plaza spaces are created along all four corners of the park to provide a visual cue and inviting appeal to the park. Lawn Space / Open Fields: • A long central open lawn space can accommodate large events, such as Good Neighbor Days, or it can accommodate several smaller events at once. • Open skating (if desired) can be located in close relation to one of the fire pit locations. • There are two locations shown for the inclusion of a backstop for informal ballfield use. At this time, the ballfield does not include an agg-lime infield. This can be further developed to include a T-ball infield or it can remain as simple as a backstop with turf lawn space. o The open field on the west end of the park is in close relation to the playground for optimal viewing for parents who may have kids utilizing the field and playground at the same time, but additional safety measures may be needed to protect the playground from foul balls. o The open field on the east end has more dedicated lawn space and is situated to cause fewer conflicts with other park uses, but lacks good visibility to the playground. • A smaller open lawn space is located on the east side of the main park pavilion and is meant to be open seating for the performance stage area. It can also be used for memorial gatherings in alignment with the future memorial, open picnic space related to the main pavilion, an open skating area (if desired), and can be secured with temporary fence for some park events. Recreational Amenities: • Skate Park: The skate park is shown being relocated along Fitzgerald Ave by the City Hall parking lot. • Memorial: A future memorial is shown in alignment with the main walkway to City Hall and can utilize the open lawn area for memorial events. • Main Pavilion: The pavilion is intended to be further design development with an architect to determine final programming and space requirements but for the purpose of the Page 3 K:\016030-000\Admin\Docs\016030_2020-0710_Master Plan Summary.docx master plan is identified as a multi-purpose building with restrooms, storage space, open air picnic shelter space, a potential internal meeting / activity room, potential vending area or small kitchen, and has an exterior space to act as a performance stage that is aligned with the memorial and City Hall axis. There are external plaza spaces on either side of the building for outdoor seating and gathering. Additional storage is available with a shed along the NW parking lot. • Fire Pit: There are two locations shown for a community fire pit, and potentially both locations could be developed. o The larger community fire pit overlooks the main lawn space and has retaining walls that act as seating while creating wooded islands on either side. o The smaller fire pit is located on the east end of the pavilion and overlooks the smaller open lawn space. • Inclusive Playground: The playground has several pods to allow for a larger space dedicated to a destination playground that is inclusive for varying abilities, challenge levels and sensory stimulation. A central plaza space with seating and shade is located within the playground and ornamental fencing is placed along the exterior perimeter for safety enhancements. • Community Sports Pad: The sports pad is a possible future element, depending on budgetary constraints and recreational needs, and is a placeholder in the current plan. The space is large enough to develop a double tennis court which is also large enough to consider pickleball, basketball or other court combinations. • Splash Pad / Interactive Fountain: While the previous master plan indicated space for a splash pad, the current plan has eliminated this as an option due to high costs and current water use goals, but has considered the potential for a future interactive fountain in the seating plaza space on the west side of the main pavilion if needs dictate.

This optimizes the collective knowledge base, technical expertise, creative design abilities and project management skills from one of our firm’s partners, and the commitment we provide to the Owner to lead your project from start to finish. This approach has provided us with a unique and highly regarded reputation within the community of municipalities, building owners, consultants and contractors. We take pride in the way our Team documents information; from Project Programming to Meeting Minutes to Final Presentation Documents to thorough budget developments sets and DD / CD efforts. They all must be clear and complete. Ultimately our approach is simple, but increasingly rare. First, we must listen. This is the only way we can understand the issues at hand. Then we must begin to solve the problem in tandem with the City of Hugo and WSB. We feel that the best and most successful designs are a product of collaboration not strictly inspiration. Accomplishing Tasks: HCM takes great pride in our reputation of meeting schedules / deadlines and doing so with complete and thorough documentation. We do not miss agreed upon deadlines. We accomplish this in several ways; first is the above stated, direct leadership by firm principals, second is that we demand this same approach from our consultant teams and third, but possibly most important, is clear communication with our clients. Communication is critical. With communication, we strive to practice one of our firm tag lines – “First, we must listen.” Every City is different, and while we bring valuable knowledge and experience in the building type and tasks requested in the RFP, we still need to get to understand the needs of the City of Hugo. We need to understand goals, inspirations, constraints and respect the studies and information gathered before our involvement. The current business environment has worsened a trend in our industry of substandard or incomplete documentation. A thorough design development package is a critical step towards a successful overall project and will give the City a clear direction towards seeing this pavilion all the way through. Our team is up for this task and is excited for the opportunity. We appreciate the clear expectation of meetings, services and engagement outlined in the RFP and feel that it is in line with our opinion of what is needed to deliver the Design Development Package and Budget / Cost Estimate. No firm has designed and executed more community buildings of this size in our area. HCM will provide services backed up by experience partners, a diverse portfolio of building styles and the knowledge to quickly understand the existing body of work on this park and ask the right questions to kick off the programming efforts. These efforts are critical to correctly sizing and laying out the functional relationships of the building and its relationship to the flow of the Master Plan that WSB has created with you. We often implement the use of image boards from other projects to quickly identify architectural style and aesthetics with the City’s Steering Committee and WSB. HCM will provide 3D images to support our concept design and supplement the image / understanding for the City Team’s evaluation. As we generate two design approaches with you we will continue to vet the programming and build on the initial brainstorming meeting with the Steering Committee.

Minnesota State Zoo Kalahari Building Renovation| HCM Architects C:\Users\michele.lindau\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\PD3H9O9W\LTR - Reduce Speed Limit.docx 178 E 9TH STREET | SUITE 200 | SAINT PAUL, MN | 55101 | 651.286.8450 | WSBENG.COM September 30, 2020 Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Hugo 14669 Fitzgerald Avenue North Hugo MN, 55038 Re: 2020 Goodview Avenue Improvements Project Speed Limit Reduction – Goodview Avenue WSB Project No. 014873-000 Dear Mayor and Council: In May 2019, Minnesota State Legislature passed a bill granting cities the authority to set speed limits under their jurisdiction. This statute went into effect August 1, 2019. The purpose of this memo is to provide the City Council with background information on the speed limit rules and to provide information on what next steps they would need to follow to implement new speed limits on local streets in the City of Hugo. Following the 2019 legislation change a local road authority may reduce the speed limit on streets under their jurisdiction with an engineering investigation for the following conditions (County and state roads are not included in this authority):  To 25 mph. on a “residential roadway”, which is a street that has a total length of up to a half-mile and is not a collector or arterial road in an area zoned exclusively for housing.  To 35 mph. in a “rural residential district,” which is a street segment with residential houses spaced less than 300 feet apart for at least a quarter mile. The current City of Hugo policy addressing speed limit related concerns is based upon guidelines from Minnesota Statutes, Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) policies, Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MnMUTCD), and engineering judgement. Goodview Avenue (south of County Road 8) is currently posted as a 50 MPH roadway. Improvements completed along the roadway with the 2020 Goodview Avenue Street Improvement project included widening the road from a 24-foot width to a 26-foot width. To accommodate MnDOT’s policy for a state aid roadway with a design speed of 50 MPH or higher, the wider roadway allows for two 11-foot driving lanes and two 2-foot paved shoulders. Should the City Council determine that they would be in favor of reducing speed limit on Goodview Avenue to 40 MPH (consistent with Goodview Avenue north of County Road 8), the driving lane could be reduced to 10 feet, allowing an additional foot of paved shoulder on both sides of the roadway. The wider shoulder would provide a safer route for pedestrians and bicyclists, which was a large concern for residents participating in the public hearings for this project. A speed limit adopted as 40 MPH in a rural residential district is not effective unless the road authority has erected signs designating the speed limit and indicating the beginning and end of the rural residential district for the roadway on which the speed limit applies. The action necessary to lower the speed limit would be to adopt the attached resolution lowering the speed limit along Goodview Avenue from approximately ¼ of a mile south of 125th Street to Egg Lake Road / 137th Street/County Road 8 and install new speed limit signage. Honorable Mayor and City Council September 30, 2020 Page 2 C:\Users\michele.lindau\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\Content.Outlook\PD3H9O 9W\LTR - Reduce Speed Limit.docx We look forward to discussing this topic with you and to gather some information regarding pursuing or not pursuing the reduced Goodview Avenue speed limit. Should the City Council determine they would be in favor in reducing speed limits along their local roadways outside of what is proposed along Goodview Avenue, more guidance will be provided by MnDOT and the City Engineers Association of Minnesota in December of 2020 for City consideration. If you have any questions or items you wish to discuss, you can contact me at 651-286-8463. Sincerely, WSB Mark Erichson, PE City Engineer Attachment cc: Bryan Bear, City Administrator, City of Hugo Scott Anderson, Public Works Director, City of Hugo Liz Finnegan, Senior Engineering Technician, City of Hugo RESOLUTION NO. 2020 - RESOLUTION REDUCING SPEED LIMIT ALONG GOODVIEW AVENUE FROM THE ¼ Mile SOUTH OF 125TH STREET TO EGG LAKE ROAD WHEREAS, the City Council of Hugo has planned improvements along Goodview Avenue from ¼ mile south of 125th Street to Egg Lake Road; and WHEREAS, the City of Hugo has awarded the contract and completed the majority of the improvements for the 2020 Goodview Avenue Street Improvements; and WHEREAS, the City of Hugo will be expending Municipal State Aid funds provided by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) on improvements along Goodview Avenue; and WHEREAS, the improvements along Goodview Avenue from the southern city border to Egg Lake Road (137th Street/County Road 8A) allow for two 11-foot driving lanes and two 2-foot paved shoulders as approved by MnDOT for the construction of a 50 MPH Municipal State Aid Street; and WHEREAS, Goodview Avenue currently meets the Minnesota State Statute for a “rural residential district” allowing the local road authority to reduce the speed limit along Goodview Avenue 40 MPH; and WHEREAS, reducing the speed limit along Goodview Avenue from ¼ mile south of 125th Street to Egg Lake Road to 40 MPH would allow for two 10-foot driving lanes and two 3-foot paved shoulders, providing a safer route for pedestrians and bicyclists. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Hugo, Minnesota, as follows: 1.

Compared to the rest of the independent dwellings that reside on Goodview, I feel the assessment on our property is unreasonable and in excess. Our residence is being unfairly assessed in a “future state” of 5.5 residences. Therefore, I am requesting that you reconsider the assessment on this property and lower it based on the three arguments below. Shooting Range protection act​ ​Fifteen years ago, the Minnesota legislature enacted the shooting range protection act. Thus requiring landowners around shooting ranges not be allowed to build or construct any type of structures around the 750-foot perimeter without making the gun club out of compliance with the rule. This makes the land I own only 45% buildable. As a property owner, this has undermined the ability to sell or develop as one normally would, taking a considerable discount in market value as to what other lots would sell for in the surrounding community. Therefore, we see the individual assessment of $18,700 (assessed as 5.5 units) not accurate as our marketable property is a lot less. This road (a main thorough way through the community) does not change any of the above and will not increase the market value of this property because of this acreage loss. Land is in one PID and should be assessed as one ​ Contrary to the City’s resolution 2013-19 the landowner feels that the lot cannot be viewed in the same capacity as other properties “Units” on Goodview using the method of assessment model under this resolution. The “single owner” does not get 5.5 units more use out of the street than any other neighbor would by paying at 1 unit. The property is used in a farming operation and is in programs to fit that definition. This resolution is presumptuous and not based on the facts in this situation. Best use of the land ​ Our family has owned this property since 1910. We have no intention of subdividing or selling in smaller units. Our desire is to support open green spaces and continue to be the owner of this property in the community. Goodview is an arterial road that feeds new building developments and supports all of Hugo. We have been told many times that people enjoy driving by our property and they hope it stays that way. To conclude, we believe you have the authority to offer some relief in the assessment that is realistic based on all the points above. Our property is carrying the weight of this assessment even though it will not increase the market value of our property because of the loss of the 750-foot perimeter. We have been good neighbors in the community and hope that you will take the time necessary to review and reassess our property to a more tolerable level. Sincerely, Grace Axelson | John Axelson POA 12831294v1 EXTRACT OF MINUTES OF A MEETING CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HUGO, MINNESOTA HELD: OCTOBER 5, 2020 Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a regular or special meeting of the City Council of the City of Hugo, Washington County, Minnesota, was duly held at the City Hall on October 5, 2020, at 7:00 P.M., for the purpose, in part, of authorizing the issuance and awarding the sale of $8,000,000 General Obligation Capital Improvement Plan Bonds, Series 2020A.

The Bonds shall be dated November 5, 2020, as the date of original issue, be issued forthwith on or after such date in fully registered form, be numbered from R-1 upward in the denomination of $5,000 each or in any integral multiple thereof of a single maturity (the "Authorized Denominations"), and shall mature on February 1 in the years and amounts as follows: Year Amount Year Amount 2022 $155,000 2032 $325,000 2023 $225,000 2033 $330,000 2024 $235,000 2034 $330,000 2025 $245,000 2035 $335,000 2026 $260,000 2036 $340,000 2027 $270,000 2037 $345,000 2028 $285,000 2038 $350,000 2029 $295,000 2039 $355,000 2030 $310,000 2040 $365,000 2031 $320,000 2046 $2,325,000 * Term Bonds. 12831294v1 3 As may be requested by the Purchaser, one or more term Bonds may be issued having mandatory sinking fund redemption and final maturity amounts conforming to the foregoing principal repayment schedule, and corresponding additions may be made to the provisions of the applicable Bond(s). The Bonds, together with any outstanding bonds of the City that are subject to the City's net debt limit, do not exceed the City's net debt limit. (b) Book Entry Only System. The Depository Trust Company, a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York or any of its successors or its successors to its functions hereunder (the "Depository") will act as securities depository for the Bonds, and to this end: (i) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so long as they remain in book entry form only (the "Book Entry Only Period"), shall at all times be in the form of a separate single fully registered Bond for each maturity of the Bonds; and for purposes of complying with this requirement under paragraphs 5 and 10 Authorized Denominations for any Bond shall be deemed to be limited during the Book Entry Only Period to the outstanding principal amount of that Bond. (ii) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the Bonds shall be registered in a bond register maintained by the Bond Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in the name of CEDE & CO., as the nominee (it or any nominee of the existing or a successor Depository, the "Nominee"). (iii) With respect to the Bonds neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall have any responsibility or obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other financial institution for which the Depository holds Bonds as securities depository (the "Participant") or the person for which a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds shown on the books and records of the Participant (the "Beneficial Owner"). Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, neither the City, nor the Bond Registrar, shall have any such responsibility or obligation with respect to (A) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, the Nominee or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any Participant, any Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (C) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any amount with respect to the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the consent given or other action taken by the Depository as the Registered Holder of any Bonds (the "Holder"). For purposes of securing the vote or consent of any Holder under this Resolution, the City may, however, rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository assigns its consenting or voting rights to certain Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy. (iv) The City and the Bond Registrar may treat as and deem the Depository to be the absolute owner of the Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of 12831294v1 4 redemption and other matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by Holders for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Bonds, and for all purpose whatsoever. The Bond Registrar, as paying agent hereunder, shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to the Holder or the Holders of the Bonds as shown on the bond register, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. (v) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Bond Registrar of written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new Nominee in place of the existing Nominee, and subject to the transfer provisions in paragraph 10, references to the Nominee hereunder shall refer to such new Nominee. (vi) So long as any Bond is registered in the name of a Nominee, all payments with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, by the Bond Registrar or City, as the case may be, to the Depository as provided in the Letter of Representations to the Depository required by the Depository as a condition to its acting as book-entry Depository for the Bonds (said Letter of Representations, together with any replacement thereof or amendment or substitute thereto, including any standard procedures or policies referenced therein or applicable thereto respecting the procedures and other matters relating to the Depository's role as book-entry Depository for the Bonds, collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Letter of Representations"). (vii) All transfers of beneficial ownership interests in each Bond issued in book-entry form shall be limited in principal amount to Authorized Denominations and shall be effected by procedures by the Depository with the Participants for recording and transferring the ownership of beneficial interests in such Bonds. (viii) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to the Holders pursuant to this Resolution by the City or Bond Registrar with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Holders, the Depository shall consider the date of receipt of notice requesting such consent or other action as the record date for such consent or other action; provided, that the City or the Bond Registrar may establish a special record date for such consent or other action. The City or the Bond Registrar shall, to the extent possible, give the Depository notice of such special record date not less than 15 calendar days in advance of such special record date to the extent possible. (ix) Any successor Bond Registrar in its written acceptance of its duties under this Resolution and any paying agency/bond registrar agreement, shall agree to take any actions necessary from time to time to comply with the requirements of the Letter of Representations. (c) Termination of Book-Entry Only System. Discontinuance of a particular Depository's services and termination of the book-entry only system may be effected as follows: 12831294v1 5 (i) The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the City and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. The City may terminate the services of the Depository with respect to the Bond if it determines that the Depository is no longer able to carry out its functions as securities depository or the continuation of the system of book-entry transfers through the Depository is not in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners. (ii) Upon termination of the services of the Depository as provided in the preceding paragraph, and if no substitute securities depository is willing to undertake the functions of the Depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the City, is willing and able to assume such functions upon reasonable or customary terms, or if the City determines that it is in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners of the Bond that the Beneficial Owners be able to obtain certificates for the Bonds, the Bonds shall no longer be registered as being registered in the bond register in the name of the Nominee, but may be registered in whatever name or names the Holder of the Bonds shall designate at that time, in accordance with paragraph 10. To the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the transferee by the Holders, in accordance with paragraph 10, the Bonds will be delivered to the Beneficial Owners. (iii) Nothing in this subparagraph (c) shall limit or restrict the provisions of paragraph 10. (d) Letter of Representations. The provisions in the Letter of Representations are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of the resolution, and if and to the extent any such provisions are inconsistent with the other provisions of this resolution, the provisions in the Letter of Representations shall control. 3. Purpose. The Bonds shall provide funds to finance the Project. The total cost of the Project, which shall include all costs enumerated in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65, is estimated to be at least equal to the amount of the Bonds. Work on the Project shall proceed with due diligence to completion. The City covenants that it shall do all things and perform all acts required of it to assure that work on the Project proceeds with due diligence to completion and that any and all permits and studies required under law for the Project are obtained. 4. Interest. The Bonds shall bear interest payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing August 1, 2021, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, at the respective rates per annum set forth opposite the maturity years as follows: Maturity Year Interest Rate Maturity Year Interest Rate 2022 5.00% 2032 1.10% 2023 5.00% 2033 1.20% 2024 5.00% 2034 1.30% 2025 5.00% 2035 1.40% 2026 5.00% 2036 1.50% 2027 5.00% 2047 1.55% 12831294v1 6 Maturity Year Interest Rate Maturity Year Interest Rate 2028 4.00% 2038 1.60% 2029 4.00% 2039 1.65% 2030 4.00% 2040 1.70% 2031 1.00% 2046 2.00% 5. Redemption. All Bonds maturing on February 1, 2031, and thereafter shall be subject to redemption and prepayment at the option of the City on February 1, 2030, and on any date thereafter at a price of par plus accrued interest. Redemption may be in whole or in part of the Bonds subject to prepayment. If redemption is in part, the maturities and the principal amounts within each maturity to be redeemed shall be determined by the City and if only part of the Bonds having a common maturity date are called for prepayment, the specific Bonds to be prepaid shall be chosen by lot by the Registrar. Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall be due and payable on the redemption date, and interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after the redemption date. Mailed notice of redemption shall be given to the paying agent and to each affected registered holder of the Bonds thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption. To effect a partial redemption of Bonds having a common maturity date, the Registrar prior to giving notice of redemption shall assign to each Bond having a common maturity date a distinctive number for each $5,000 of the principal amount of such Bond. The Registrar shall then select by lot, using such method of selection as it shall deem proper in its discretion, from the numbers so assigned to the Bonds, as many numbers as, at $5,000 for each number, shall equal the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed. The Bonds to be redeemed shall be the Bonds to which were assigned numbers so selected; provided, however, that only so much of the principal amount of each Bond of a denomination of more than $5,000 shall be redeemed as shall equal $5,000 for each number assigned to it and so selected. If a Bond is to be redeemed only in part, it shall be surrendered to the Registrar (with, if the City or Registrar so requires, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the City and Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing) and the City shall execute (if necessary) and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Bond, without service charge, a new Bond or Bonds having the same stated maturity and interest rate and of any Authorized Denomination or Denominations, as requested by the Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Bond so surrendered. 6.

All Bonds surrendered upon any exchange or transfer provided for in this resolution shall be promptly canceled by the Bond Registrar and thereafter disposed of as directed by the City. 12831294v1 14 All Bonds delivered in exchange for or upon transfer of Bonds shall be valid general obligations of the City evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this resolution, as the Bonds surrendered for such exchange or transfer. Every Bond presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Bond Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing. The Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the transfer or exchange of any Bond and any legal or unusual costs regarding transfers and lost Bonds. Transfers shall also be subject to reasonable regulations of the City contained in any agreement with the Bond Registrar, including regulations which permit the Bond Registrar to close its transfer books between record dates and payment dates. The Administrator is hereby authorized to negotiate and execute the terms of said agreement. 11. Rights Upon Transfer or Exchange. Each Bond delivered upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Bond shall carry all the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Bond. 12. Interest Payment; Record Date. Interest on any Bond shall be paid on each Interest Payment Date by check or draft mailed to the person in whose name the Bond is registered (the "Holder") on the registration books of the City maintained by the Bond Registrar and at the address appearing thereon at the close of business on the fifteenth day of the calendar month next preceding such Interest Payment Date (the "Regular Record Date"). Any such interest not so timely paid shall cease to be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof as of the Regular Record Date, and shall be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof at the close of business on a date (the "Special Record Date") fixed by the Bond Registrar whenever money becomes available for payment of the defaulted interest. Notice of the Special Record Date shall be given by the Bond Registrar to the Holders not less than ten days prior to the Special Record Date. 13. Treatment of Registered Owner. The City and Bond Registrar may treat the person in whose name any Bond is registered as the owner of the Bond for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest (subject to the payment provisions in paragraph 12) on, the Bond and for all other purposes whatsoever whether or not the Bond shall be overdue, and neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 14. Delivery; Application of Proceeds. The Bonds when so prepared and executed shall be delivered by the Finance Director to the Purchaser upon receipt of the purchase price, and the Purchaser shall not be obliged to see to the proper application thereof. 12831294v1 15 15. Fund and Accounts. There is hereby created a special fund to be designated the "General Obligation Capital Improvement Plan Bonds, Series 2020A Fund" (the "Fund") to be administered and maintained by the Finance Director as a bookkeeping account separate and apart from all other funds maintained in the official financial records of the City. The Fund shall be maintained in the manner herein specified until all of the Bonds and the interest thereon have been fully paid. There shall be maintained in the Fund the following separate accounts: (a) Construction Account. To the Construction Account there shall be credited the proceeds of the sale of the Bonds. From the Construction Account there shall be paid all costs of issuance of the Bonds and all costs and expenses of financing the Project, including the cost of any construction contracts heretofore let and all other costs incurred and to be incurred of the kind authorized in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65. Moneys in the Construction Account shall be used for no other purpose except as otherwise provided by law; provided that the proceeds of the Bonds may also be used to the extent necessary to pay interest on the Bonds due prior to the anticipated date of commencement of the collection of taxes herein levied or covenanted to be levied; and provided further that if upon completion of the Project there shall remain any unexpended balance in the Construction Account, the balance shall be transferred by the City Council to the Debt Service Account. (b) Debt Service Account. There are hereby irrevocably appropriated and pledged to, and there shall be credited to, the Debt Service Account: (i) all collections of taxes herein and hereafter levied for the payment of the Bonds; (ii) all funds remaining in the Construction Account after completion of the Project and payment of the costs thereof; (iii) all investment earnings on funds held in the Debt Service Account; and (iv) any and all other moneys which are properly available and are appropriated by the governing body of the City to the Debt Service Account. The Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the principal and interest of the Bonds and any other general obligation bonds of the City hereafter issued by the City and made payable from said account as provided by law. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments, except (1) for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Bonds were issued and (2) in addition to the above in an amount not greater than the lesser of five percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or $100,000. To this effect, any proceeds of the Bonds and any sums from time to time held in the Construction Account or Debt Service Account (or any other City account which will be used to pay principal or interest to become due on the bonds payable therefrom) in excess of amounts which under then applicable federal arbitrage regulations may be invested without regard to yield shall not be invested at a yield in excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by said arbitrage regulations on such investments after taking into account any applicable "temporary periods" or "minor portion" made available under the federal arbitrage regulations. Money in the Fund shall not be invested in obligations or deposits issued by, guaranteed by or insured by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof if and to the extent that such investment would cause the Bonds to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). 12831294v1 16 16. Tax Levy; Coverage Test. To provide moneys for payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds there is hereby levied upon all of the taxable property in the City a direct annual ad valorem tax which shall be spread upon the tax rolls and collected with and as part of other general property taxes in the City for the years and in the amounts as follows: Years of Tax Levy Years of Tax Collection Amount See Attached Schedule in Exhibit B The tax levies are such that if collected in full they, together with other revenues herein pledged for the payment of the Bonds, will produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Bonds. The tax levies shall be irrepealable so long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, provided that the City reserves the right and power to reduce the levies in the manner and to the extent permitted by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 3. 17. Defeasance. When all Bonds have been discharged as provided in this paragraph, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered holders of the Bonds shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such deposit. The City may also discharge its obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they are prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full, provided that notice of redemption thereof has been duly given. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution qualified by law as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be required, without regard to sale and/or reinvestment, to pay all amounts to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date. 18. Compliance With Reimbursement Bond Regulations. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to establish and provide for the City's compliance with United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.150-2 (the "Reimbursement Regulations") applicable to the "reimbursement proceeds" of the Bonds, being those portions thereof which will be used by the City to reimburse itself for any expenditure which the City paid or will have paid prior to the Closing Date (a "Reimbursement Expenditure"). The City hereby certifies and/or covenants as follows: (a) Not later than sixty days after the date of payment of a Reimbursement Expenditure, the City (or person designated to do so on behalf of the City) has made or will have made a written declaration of the City's official intent (a "Declaration") which effectively (i) 12831294v1 17 states the City's reasonable expectation to reimburse itself for the payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure out of the proceeds of a subsequent borrowing; (ii) gives a general and functional description of the property, project or program to which the Declaration relates and for which the Reimbursement Expenditure is paid, or identifies a specific fund or account of the City and the general functional purpose thereof from which the Reimbursement Expenditure was to be paid (collectively the "Project"); and (iii) states the maximum principal amount of debt expected to be issued by the City for the purpose of financing the Project; provided, however, that no such Declaration shall necessarily have been made with respect to: (i) "preliminary expenditures" for the Project, defined in the Reimbursement Regulations to include engineering or architectural, surveying and soil testing expenses and similar prefatory costs, which in the aggregate do not exceed twenty percent of the "issue price" of the Bonds, and (ii) a de minimis amount of Reimbursement Expenditures not in excess of the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of the proceeds of the Bonds. (b) Each Reimbursement Expenditure is a capital expenditure or a cost of issuance of the Bonds or any of the other types of expenditures described in Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of the Reimbursement Regulations. (c) The "reimbursement allocation" described in the Reimbursement Regulations for each Reimbursement Expenditure shall and will be made forthwith following (but not prior to) the issuance of the Bonds and in all events within the period ending on the date which is the later of three years after payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure or one year after the date on which the Project to which the Reimbursement Expenditure relates is first placed in service. (d) Each such reimbursement allocation will be made in a writing that evidences the City's use of Bond proceeds to reimburse the Reimbursement Expenditure and, if made within 30 days after the Bonds are issued, shall be treated as made on the day the Bonds are issued. Provided, however, that the City may take action contrary to any of the foregoing covenants in this paragraph upon receipt of an opinion of its Bond Counsel for the Bonds stating in effect that such action will not impair the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. 19. General Obligation Pledge. For the prompt and full payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds, as the same respectively become due, the full faith, credit and taxing powers of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt Service Account is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on the Bonds and any other bonds payable therefrom, the deficiency shall be promptly paid out of any other funds of the City which are available for such purpose, and such other funds may be reimbursed with or without interest from the Debt Service Account when a sufficient balance is available therein. 20. Certificate of Registration. A certified copy of this resolution is hereby directed to be filed with the County Auditor of Washington County, Minnesota, together with such other information as the County Auditor shall require, and to obtain the County Auditor's Certificate that the Bonds have been entered in the County Auditor's Bond Register and that the tax levy required by law has been made. 21. Records and Certificates. The officers of the City are hereby authorized and directed to prepare and furnish to the Purchaser, and to the attorneys approving the legality of the 12831294v1 18 issuance of the Bonds, certified copies of all proceedings and records of the City relating to the Bonds and to the financial condition and affairs of the City, and such other affidavits, certificates and information as are required to show the facts relating to the legality and marketability of the Bonds as the same appear from the books and records under their custody and control or as otherwise known to them, and all such certified copies, certificates and affidavits, including any heretofore furnished, shall be deemed representations of the City as to the facts recited therein. 22. Continuing Disclosure. The City is the sole obligated person with respect to the Bonds. The City hereby agrees, in accordance with the provisions of Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule"), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a Continuing Disclosure Undertaking (the "Undertaking") hereinafter described to: (a) Provide or cause to be provided to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the "MSRB") by filing at www.emma.msrb.org in accordance with the Rule, certain annual financial information and operating data in accordance with the Undertaking. The City reserves the right to modify from time to time the terms of the Undertaking as provided therein. (b) Provide or cause to be provided to the MSRB notice of the occurrence of certain events with respect to the Bonds in not more than ten (10) business days after the occurrence of the event, in accordance with the Undertaking. (c) Provide or cause to be provided to the MSRB notice of a failure by the City to provide the annual financial information with respect to the City described in the Undertaking, in not more than ten (10) business days following such occurrence. (d) The City agrees that its covenants pursuant to the Rule set forth in this paragraph and in the Undertaking is intended to be for the benefit of the Holders of the Bonds and shall be enforceable on behalf of such Holders; provided that the right to enforce the provisions of these covenants shall be limited to a right to obtain specific enforcement of the City's obligations under the covenants.

Negative Covenant as to Use of Bond Proceeds and Project. The City hereby covenants not to use the proceeds of the Bonds or to use the Project, or to cause or permit them to be used, or to enter into any deferred payment arrangements for the cost of the Project, in such a manner as to cause the Bonds to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code. 24. Tax-Exempt Status of the Bonds; Rebate. The City shall comply with requirements necessary under the Code to establish and maintain the exclusion from gross income under Section 103 of the Code of the interest on the Bonds, including without limitation (i) requirements relating to temporary periods for investments, (ii) limitations on amounts 12831294v1 19 invested at a yield greater than the yield on the Bonds, and (iii) the rebate of excess investment earnings to the United States. The City expects to satisfy the 18-month expenditure exemption for gross proceeds of the Bonds as provided in Section 1.148-7(d) of the Regulations. The Mayor and/or the Administrator are hereby authorized and directed to make such elections as to arbitrage and rebate matters relating to the Bonds as they deem necessary, appropriate or desirable in connection with the Bonds, and all such elections shall be, and shall be deemed and treated as, elections of the City. 25.

The City shall use its best efforts to comply with any federal procedural requirements which may apply in order to effectuate the designation made by this paragraph. 26. Severability.
