Council had directed staff to schedule a neighborhood meeting, which was held on December 14, 2015. City Engineer Jay Kennedy provided a recap of the meeting stating topics of discussion were roadway widths, funding and assessments, trails, and traffic. Kennedy showed the trail and sidewalk connections stating there needed to be more discussion and review of impacts related to the widening of the roadway. Kennedy stated that the residents seemed to acknowledge the need for improvements to the roadway, and there were several comments on traffic speeds. Kennedy provided a potential schedule showing the project could be constructed between May -October, 2016. The next step would be to authorize a feasibility study if the Council feels there is enough support from the neighborhood and consider options for trail connections and addressing traffic speeds. Haas talked about the possibility of eliminating the grass strip between the road and trails. Kennedy stated that there needs to be two feet from the face of curb to the edge of the trail as required for state aid funding. The Mayor stated that the residents seemed to be in favor of the project, but speeding was a big concern. There was also discussion on which side of the road the trail would go on. He questioned whether a speed study was ever done on that road. Kennedy replied that there was one done several years ago that moved the transition zones as a response to the increase in development in the area. MnDOT could do another speed study and evaluate the transition zones. Petryk talked about a resident's concern that widening the road to a 32 -foot roadway would encourage speeding. Kennedy stated that the minimum road width for state aid funding is 26 Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for December 21, 2015 Page 7 of 10 feet, which would not allow parking. It is a collector road, and 26 feet would be too narrow. Petryk agreed it needed to be discussed in more detail at the next meeting. Klein asked about further development in the area and the need for collector streets. Haas noted that there were not many east/west collector roads. Klein made motion, Miron seconded, to authorize the feasibility study to include trail connections, address traffic speeds, and direct staff to have law enforcement increase patrols of this area. All Ayes. Motion carried. Discussion on Rice Creek Watershed District Urban Stormwater Remediation Grant City Administrator Bryan Bear explained that, as part of the RCWD's efforts to protect and enhance water resources, they proposed to make available approximately $200,000 in cost -share funding in 2016 to assist entities in stormwater management projects. City Engineer Jay Kennedy discussed whether the City should file an application. He talked about the cost -share program stating the City has received funding in the past for converting septic systems to sewer and to correct the drainage issue in Victor Gardens. Kennedy talked about the City's goal to develop regional water reuse projects where credits could be applied to City or private projects. It was explained that funding cannot be used to meet RCWD rules; grant funds cannot be used to create credits. Since the credits would be more valuable than money from the grant program, it would not make sense to apply. It was recommended to not submit a grant application for 2016 because there is no applicable project. It was further recommended to continue coordinating with RCWD to implement regional water reuse plans. RCWD Manager John Waller talked about the money the RCWD had spent in Hugo during the past year and about the needed changes to the rules. He will encourage work on the credit program. He was sorry to hear that Hugo was not applying for any of the funds, since tax money collected from Hugo was $307,000, and he would like to see more of that money come back into the community. The Mayor thanked John for all his work on the RCWD Board. Hass made motion, Klein seconded, to not submit a grant application for the 2016 projects and direct staff to send a letter to the RCWD explaining the rationale for not applying and encourage expansion of funding for other purposes. All Ayes. Motion carried. Discussion on Withrow School City Administrator Bryan Bear added this to the agenda to inform Council that the Stillwater School Board had been having discussions on the capacity of some schools and the recently approved bond referendum that included the reshuffling of students. There is now a recommendation from the school superintendent to close three schools: Marine on St. Croix, Oak Parks Heights, and Withrow Elementary. There will be several public hearings in January, Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for December 21, 2015 Page 8 of 10 2016, and they want everything ready prior to the 2017 school year. Staff has been receiving inquires on this and will continue to provide updates to the Council. A meeting has been scheduled by group of parents for tomorrow (December 22"d) at 6p.m., but it is not likely that any new information will be presented. Haas suggested extending an invitation to Hugo's representing board member to talk to the Council. Jay Axelrod, 15760 Jeffery Avenue North, informed Council there was going to be an official board presentation on January 7th with three open sessions following that. The meetings were scheduled to be at 4 p.m. at the south end of the district. It was his opinion that the district was making it as difficult as possible to provide comments. A meeting was to be held tomorrow, December 22, to organize parents to fight this. He stated that one of the main reasons his family moved to Hugo was to open enroll his kids in Withrow Elementary. It is a community institution, and closing the school is tragic and may result in a decline in property values. He thinks the southern schools in the district are feeling the northern schools are taking resources away from them. He talked about the parent -led group called "STOP BOLD COLD" that has formed in opposition to ISD 834's Building Opportunities to Learn and Discover "BOLD" plan. Kris Capra, 12715 Isleton Avenue North, talked about the bonding preparation process stating that in November, 2015 there was a clear message on video that they would not be closing any schools. John Waller, 14010 Homestead Avenue, talked about the amount of time children would be on the bus and felt the City should support not closing Withrow Elementary School. The Council agreed that schools play an important role in society and the issue needed to be monitored very closely. Haas made motion, Klein seconded, to direct staff to draft letter as preliminary notice letting them know we would like to weigh in, and encourage the school board to speak to the Council. Copies of the letter could be sent to the Stillwater Gazette and The Citizen. All Ayes. Motion carried. Discussion on Artwork at State Capitol Council Member Haas added this to the agenda to discuss proposed changes to the art display at the State Capitol.

Respectfully Submitted, Michele Lindau City Clerk i �rxa ty of fMgo Memorandum To: Bryan Bear, City Administrator From: Taylor Richter, Administrative Intern Date: December 30, 2015 for City Council Meeting January 4, 2015 Re: Withrow Elementary Closure Currently, a discussion is underway with the Stillwater Public School District regarding the closure of three elementary schools; namely, Withrow Elementary, Marine Elementary, and Oak Park Elementary. The reason for the closure is due to capacity and financial arguments. However, many constituents disagree with the argument and claim better solutions are more viable. Furthermore, the most current bond passed regarding the school district, in 2014, and the levy of 2013, gave constituents the impression that the levy and bond were not necessary if the district planned on retaining additional fiends from the closure of three schools. Considering all factors, it creates an interesting debate. In this memo, the specifics of the levy and bond referendums will be discussed in relation to the situation at hand. Continuing the discussion, the B.O.L.D. Plan sets the stage for the closure of the three elementary schools. Furthermore, the implications of the closure will be detailed along with the current positions of involved individuals and organizations. The 2013 Levy and the 2014 Bond Otherwise referred to as the "Levy," passed with 63% majority. According to the Our Schools Our Valley website, the first levy was initially approved in 2007 and expired at the end of the 2013-2014 school year. The purpose of the previous, and most current, levy concerned the annual budget. Approximately $1,005 per student originates from the fiend generated by the levy. Without the levy, the school would experience $11 million in board -approved budget cuts. Specifically, the three issues addressed by the levy are financial stability, strategic plan: bridge to excellence, and safety & security. This would ensure the capability of the school district to appropriately fund each student; update curriculum, training, and opportunity; and create controlled access to schools, among other measures. In overarching terms, according to the Stillwater Public School District, the levy supports current programs, avoids budget cuts, recreates how students learn and better prepare them for the future, add secure entrances with quick response systems, and expand mental health measures and initiatives. Although never distinctly mentioned, many resources report that the levy would "maintain existing programs." This is the language that seems to be the most arguable for constituents. Although the language is vague, the largest gap in the levy in relation to the issue at hand is no mention of future closures and/or re -capacitating the district. Regarding this issue, as stated by the Stillwater Public School District: "When the levy was passed in 2013 we knew we'd have to continue to find efficiencies in the system." In fact, the levy proposed cut list that was shared in 2013 stated; "Some items on this list may need to be acted on to make up for our annual budget shortfall caused by inflation and rising costs or to fund new strategic planning initiatives even if a levy were to be renewed this fall. We knew that even with the levy we'd need to find money within the system to pay for Bridge to Excellence and other initiatives - about $1.3 million annually. We haven't done that yet." Continuing, "Closing schools has been discussed in this district for many years. Through many rounds of budget cuts and in discussions around levies, the topic has arisen. We've avoided school closures by making other cuts to the budget that have increased class sizes and reduced services to students. But after cutting our budget in 10 of the past 15 years, we've been left with holes in programming that have created inequities for our students. Our students are receiving a different educational experience depending on where they live." More recently in 2014, voters relevant to the Stillwater Area Public School District agreed to a $97.5 million bond request in order to update facilities, build a new elementary school, and an addition to the Stillwater Area High School. Passed with a 57.6% majority, the constituents hoped to attract more families to the district and ensure the current facilities were up to par with other districts. The controversy regarding the bond arises from Mr. Dennis Bloom's, the previous Director of Operations, comment. He stated at a Board meeting while discussing the bond, "Our committee has never recommended or we never really even discussed the closure of a school. We're not looking to close a school we're looking to move our Iease, facilities and move them into schools and maybe repurpose..." This statement took place during the November 13, 2014 meeting. This is the statement those opposing the closures are referencing the most. The B.O.L.D. Plan Superintendent Denise Pontrelli proposed the B.O.L.D. initiative. B.O.L.D. stand for Building Opportunities to Learn and Discover. The purpose of B.O.L.D. revolves around financial and capacity strains faced by the district. Currently, the school district believes that the services among the schools are inequitable. For example, the students attending the smaller, northern schools have fewer support services and unbalanced class sizes. Furthermore, the students in the smaller schools cost approximately $1,600 more per pupil than those in the more highly attended southern schools. This imbalance may be due to the difference in capacity among the schools. Out of the ten elementary schools, Withrow, Marine, and Oak Park are under the most scrutiny. Withrow currently reflects 84.0% capacity of their school, 89.7% for Marine, and 94.9% capacity for Oak Park. With projections for the next school year being 86%, 72%, and 83.7%, respectively. The attendance is expected to decrease. Considering such, other schools in the district are capable of housing the students from these schools while being at or under capacity. The Stillwater Area Public School District recommends that the aforementioned elementary schools close, and with the closure, approximately $1.26 million may be reinvested into the other schools. According to the Stillwater Public School District's website, "District leaders believe it is better to invest our resources in support and programs for students than it is to pay for empty rooms. For more than 20 years enrollment has been declining. We are a district built for about 10,000 [students], but we are currently serving just 8,300." The school district believes it is time to reevaluate the situation and adjust accordingly. Furthermore, the district claims that the rooms in the other elementary schools will not be overcrowded due to an adjustment of boundaries for the best balance enrollment." Three public meetings are scheduled regarding the initiative. The first is regarding Oak Park Elementary, and it will take place on Tuesday, January 26, 2016, at 5:00pm. The second regarding Withrow Elementary, taking place Wednesday, January 27, 2016, at 5:00pm. Lastly, Marine Elementary will be discussed on Thursday, January 28, 2015, at 5:00pm. All of the 2 meetings take place at the Oak -Land Junior High. A final decision on the B.O.L.D. Plan will be made by the Stillwater Public School District on February 11, 2016. If implemented, the change will take place during the 2017-2018 school year. No blogs, articles, statements, etc. have been posted addressing the means of being able to predict the closures before the levy and/or bond. Although Ms. Pontrelli stated in a telephone conversation that it was not known and the projections were only just completed by demographers and facilities analysts, it is a strong question to ask. The Schools Withrow Elementary Withrow Elementary received the 2012 U.S. Department of Education National Blue Ribbon Schools Award. The school houses 190 students through grades K-6, which is approximately 27 children per grade level. This school is located in rural Hugo, Minnesota. Marine Elementary Marine Elementary contains seven classrooms, one for each grade ranging from K-6. The school educates 157 students, and has the capacity of educating 175 students. This school is located in Marine on St. Croix. The Marine School Association (MSA) is the only school in which has released a formal statement against the school closures. The MSA is the "non-profit parent, guardian, and community support organization for Marine Elementary School," as stated on their website. The Marine School Association stated the following, "Smaller schools such as Marine and Withrow play a vital role in the health of Stillwater's school district. Families need options for kids who do not thrive in big box schools. This is shown in the 40+% of open/alternate enrollees in Marine Elementary. Many kids need smaller overall environments, despite the reduced access to special and additional services." Continuing, "It appears to us that the district would rather displace hundreds of Oak Park, Withrow, and Marine students rather than promote and grow schools in the district and meet all students' needs. These actions indicate that the district does not want to reduce the 30% who don't attend Stillwater schools; closings and reducing school options will drive people to charters, private schools, and neighboring districts." Furthermore, "We encourage the administration to find other solutions to capacity issues, such as: [1.)] Decreasing the Stillwater District's loss to neighboring schools and districts by promoting the strengths of all the schools! If all schools acted together with help from the District we could show how well the varying schools meet families' needs. [2.] Instead of displacing over 700 students, changing the boundaries to shift students north. Many fewer students/families would be affected." Oak Park Elementary Oak Park Elementary contains 480 students ranging from K-6. Oak Park is located in Stillwater, MN. Oak Park, in addition to all of the schools in question, promote themselves as having small classroom sizes, individualized learning, and a well-rounded educational experience. Potential Implications for Closing Many parents and others involved disagree with the B.O.L.D. proposal's closure of the three elementary schools. Analyzing the proposal with the concerns of a variety of individuals and organizations may provide light into the policy proposal. Currently, about 1,120 individuals are against the closure of the three elementary schools. Some of the main reasons of their disagreement to closures are as follows: decrease in home value; decrease in value of the district; decrease in educational value due to loss of small school sizes; "right -sizing" is not a proven means to increase 3 student enrollment; the school board is only viewing this financially and not holistically; no community communication in this decision, and more. The "Stop B.O.L.D. Cold" group is the leader in discussing the negative implications of closing the three schools. They are also conducting an online survey in which they are quantifying the impacts of the closure of the three schools. This survey will be very interesting and necessary to understand so that their current oppositions against the closures may be quantifiably compared to the numbers presented by the Board. From the City of Hugo's perspective, only approximately less than 1/ of the city falls within the borders of the Withrow Elementary school attendance lines. Unfortunately, the Withrow Elementary school does not state how many of their students reside in Hugo. Secondly, it is uncertain how many families with elementary -aged children reside in the bottom -right corner of Hugo. All points to be considered, but, sadly, no firm quantitative solution may be drawn (as of yet) regarding the effects of the Withrow school closure on Hugo. The Current Status of the Closures All of the above-mentioned individuals and organizations are continuing to hold conversations regarding the closure. It is a much divided issue, and a relatively new issue, and neither the "vote no" or "vote yes" side have many agreements. As seen above, both arguments are valid, but further discussion must take place in order to determine if a negotiation is possible for both sides. Update: Dec. 28, 2015 A meeting was held with Superintendent Denise Pontrelli, Executive Director of Learning and Innovation Robert McDowell, Mayor of Marine Glen Mills, City Administrator of Stillwater Tom McCarty, City Administrator of Oak Park Heights Eric Johnson, and the City Administrator of Hugo Bryan Bear. The meeting was approximately two hours, and was quite informative. No hard actions or plans were taken during the meeting, but rather a discussion to promote consideration. The main points of the meeting are as follows: 1. The school districts plans are logical, well -thought, and financially conscious; 2. The school district is not valuing community perspective and emotional perspectives, which the city leaders are most concerned with; 3. The general public has negative feelings towards the closures of the schools, but it may be assumed they do not have a solid understanding of the funding of a school district and how monies were used from previous levies and bonds; 4. The decision to close the three schools seems quite rushed, and the city leaders wished to see some additional time for more discussion and alternative ideas to present themselves; 5. No one is certain if the "silent majority" agrees with the closure of the three schools, or if the "Stop B.O.L.D. Cold" hold the majority opinion; 6. The financial state of the issue is something that must be addressed, and there is no reason to continue putting the district in a worse position by pushing off the decisions; 7. With deciding soon, the district faces real administrative deadlines which adds additional pressure; 8. The district came on strong in their presentation of the plan, and may need to do some damage control and/or convincing along the way; 4 9. Representatives from the district will be attending the aforementioned leaders' city council meetings and educating the council members so that they may make a positional stance if they so choose; 10. Hugo has invited the district to present on Monday, January 4, 2015, at 7:00p.m. at the next Council meeting. More to follow the meeting. Recommendation Although a difficult and emotional issue, the recommendation to the Council is to refrain from taking a formal position. Each individual is rightly entitled to his or her own opinion about the situation; however, it is not within the jurisdiction of cities, councils, and others, to make decisions regarding school -related issues. It is our duty to inform the public which requires us to be as informed as possible. We recommend that all continue to be up-to-date on the issues, the facts, and spread the knowledge to the constituents and be able to answer their questions as thoroughly as possible. We do not advise taking a formal stance on the issue so as to not alienate any institutions or individuals. In addition, we recommend the Council strongly encourage the Stillwater Public School District to do the following: 1. Be more deliberate in their attempts to initiate discussion with community members in a meaningful manner; 2. Slow their process to ensure deliberate communication, research, analytics, and consideration of alternatives from their own creation or suggestion of another; 3. Present alternative options instead of the closure of three elementary schools and their advantages and disadvantages so the public may equally consider the options; and 4. Provide additional points of access to information regarding BOLD such as hand-outs, presentations, staff, and additional community meetings. 5 For reference: http: //alphanewsmn. com/2015/ 12/stop-bold-cold-opposition-group-to-stillwater-schools-isd-834- elementary-school-closures/ http://cityofstillwater.granicus.corn/MediaPlaycr.php?view_id=2&clip_id=210&meta id=20428 http://cityofstillwater.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=2&clip_id=340&meta id=33640 http://stopboldcold.blogspot.com/2015ll 2lmarine-school-association-release.html http://stopboldcold.blogspot.com/2015/12/on-thursday-december-17-2015-stillwater.html http://www.marineschoolassn.org/about-the-msa/ http://www. stillwater.kl2.mn.usldistrictlbuilding-834/stillwater-boldlstillwater-bold-frequently- asked-questions http: //www. stillWater.k l 2.mn.us/distriet/building-834/stillwater-bold http: //www. stillwater.k l 2.mn.us/district-news/levy-2013 - school -board -officially -approves -levy - question -november -ballot http ://www. stillwater.k l 2.mn.us/schools/elementary-schools/marine-elementary http://www. stillwater.k l 2.mn.us/schools/elementary-schoolslo ak-park-elementary http://www.stillwater.k l2.mn.uslschoolslelementary-schoolslwithrow-elementary http://www.stillwater.kl 2.mn.uslsitesldefaultlfiles/public/downloadslpagesICapacity%2OProposa 1%20Fina1%2ODec%2017.pdf http://www. stillwatercurrent. com/stillwater-area-public-schools-families-rally-save-marine- withrow-oak-park-elementary-schools/ http://www. stillwatercurrent. com/stillwater-area-public-schools-passes-97-5-million-facilities- referendum/ https://mysidewalk.com/organizations/290206/stillwater-bold https://www.excensus-guidekl2.net/gkl2/stillwater/district view/ •r 9,p�q AU OO�� ELIC Sc, Stillwater BOLD Building Opportunities to Lear► and Discover Right -Suing Our SUhools Fact Sheet District leaders are recommending a plan to right -size our elementary schools in order to better meet the learning needs of all students. With elementary building capacity in our central and northern schools expected to decrease in the coming years, the proposal would close three elementary schools —Marine, Oak Park and Withrow - beginning in 2017-2018. Consolidate three elementary schools north of Highway 36 — Marine, Oak Park and Withrow- with other schools to create seven right -sized elementary schools. Rightsizing ensures all of our students have the same learning experience no matter where they live and would create a more sustainable future. Right -sizing would allow us to invest in learning across all levels, elementary, middle and high school, rather than spend money to operate under-utilized buildings. The board will vote on the recommendation on Feb. 11, 2016. If approved, the change would happen for the start of the 2017-2018 school year. This would give families and staff nearly a year and a half to transition to a npw school community. Making BOLD decisions to right -size schools means ALL students will get: • More equitable learning experiences • Improved access to support services • A student -centered middle school experience Support for ninth graders transitioning to high school • Improved access to technology support • More balanced class sizes across the district • Long-term stability for staffing, operations and LEARNING Watch the Dec. 17 presentation to the school board to learn more about the Presented to Board 72/77/2075 %pug "all 1W Right -Size Stillwater Area Schools Consolidate three northern elementary schools with other schools in the district to create seven right -sized schools.

Bottom Lion: Right -sizing schools allows us to provide more equitable learning experiences for all students. p�BLIC SCN� Stillwater BOLD Building Opportunities to Learn and Discover Findings of Fact The recent capacity study conducted by district administrators brought to light the following facts, all of which support the proposal to right -size our schools: Our enrollment is declining • We are a district of 8,300 students that is built for about 10,000 students Demographers predict the district's enrollment will hold stable or slightly decline - Increase in the south, but decrease in the north and central parts of the district • The number of people per household is dropping county -wide meaning there will be fewer children living in our district in the next 10-15 years • Only 72.3% of students choose to attend our schools • 7 of 10 elementary schools capture less than 60% of students We are operating schools far below capacity We have 1,000 fewer students than we did 15 years ago, but operate the same number of buildings • By 2017-2018 four of our elementary schools are projected to be below 70% of capacity Boundary changes alone will not solve capacity issues • We have more buildings in the central and north where current and projected enrollment is stabilizing or declining, and fewer in the south where growth is occuring Students are having inequitable experiences There is a variability of $1,600 in the cost to educate an elementary student, depending on the building Class sizes are smaller in some schools and larger in others Small schools have limited support for English language learners, mental health, intervention services, and shared specialists must travel between many buildings Right -sized schools are more effective for learning, more efficient to operate Based on research, the preferred elementary school size in our district is 450-700 students or at least three sections per grade level. • Three or more section schools create more balanced class sizes, equitable access to support services, and more cost efficiencies • Elementary enrollments currently vary from 150 to 760 students The choice to maintain the status quo has financial and programmatic implications Budget reductions have been necessary in approximately 10 of the last 15 years No sustainable funding source is currently available for Bridge to Excellence (BtE) initiatives, middle school programming, technology, or new programs Right -sizing would allow the district to reinvest $1.2 million annually beginning in 2017-2018 Learn more at stillwaterschools.org/Bold Stillwater BOLD Building Opportunities to Learn and Discover Presented to the School Board December 17, 2015 BOLD: How We Got Here 10,MOV too"'* /MO** DKMVJMpbm a Pyftopr m Ory Bad Se4lmnt m 1 AHaaesnfa• Rw mmaktoa DKffaabM P&P.d@U, %Wo�, %WOO# \WOO?, IF6 Stillwater ZAREA PUBLIC SCHOOLS BtE, Levy and Bond Promises t s SnYtsf�RS it sre/%„fes .

We appreciate the opportunity to present you with our 2016 rate schedule. We are continuing to develop and grow our services in the areas of engineering, planning, environmental, urban design, and construction services, so that we can better serve you in the years ahead. With our proactive approach and investment in technology, quality staff, and education, we have been successful in improving our efficiencies, and have thus been able to offset the ever-increasing industry costs related to staff, benefits, and insurance. As a result, we are able to propose an increase of 2.4% for our 2016 rates which is less than what we are experiencing from market pressures and competition for quality staff. In 2016, we will be diligently working to create additional value for your projects and your community, and we are certain that you will recognize our focus on continuous process improvement and customer satisfaction. The following key points confirm your choice to have WSB serve you and your community: Improved Project Delivery Effective project management is a key to successful project delivery. Whether the project is large or small, managing the project's scope, budget, schedule, risk, and changes is critical. We are investing in staff resources and innovative software solutions that will enhance the performance of our team in this area. Our goal is to be the industry leader in the area of project controls. Expanded Capabilities The phrase "a picture is worth a thousand words" is often used to describe a visualization exercise. Similar to our investment in enhanced project management, WSB will be investing in staff and software resources that will result in improved visualization tools to support you as you implement projects in the community. We are confident that providing project stakeholders with improved visualization exhibits will result in better clarity of information and a more engaged process. Equal Opportunity Employer wsbeng.com Mr. Bryan Bear November 19, 2015 Page 2 In 2015, WSB launched a new geotechnical services group, which will provide a one -stop -shop for many projects and will create unparalleled efficiency in project delivery for both design and construction - related projects. As a frequent component to delivering our existing services, we believe that bringing the geotechnical services in-house will benefit a broad range of clients in both cost and schedule. Investing in our Culture — The WSB Way Through the continued growth of our industry-leading educational program at WSB University, promoting innovative ideas from our talented staff, and our direct efforts fostering meaningful mentorships, for the third year in a row WSB was recognized as a Top Workplace by the StarTribune. We are confident that by investing in our team and our firm's culture, this will result in valuable innovation and customer focus for our clients. Our Commitment to You We value our relationship with you and your team, and appreciate your feedback related to our service. Together we can contribute to building a legacy for your community.

BACKGROUND: The Ordinance Review Committee (ORC) has reviewed several ordinance text amendments since 2004. Most recently the ORC completed text amendments to clean up inconsistencies within the Code and the Solar Energy Systems Ordinance. Over the next year the ORC will be reviewing and making recommendation on other zoning ordinance text amendments. Some of these include the Parking, Subdivision, and Planned Unit Development (PUD) ordinances. The first ordinance to be reviewed will be Parking. 2. OVERVIEW OF ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENTS: In reviewing the zoning code, staff has found the existing parking requirements to be quite excessive based on our experience with the typical demand for parking associated with various uses and also when compared with ordinances in other communities. For that and other reasons, staff is proposing zoning text amendments to address the excessive parking requirements found in the parking code. In addition to the review of the parking requirements for each use, the ORC will review the entire ordinance and make recommendations on revisions. 3. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the City Council authorize zoning ordinance text amendment to the parking ordinance to be reviewed by the ORC and to authorize notice of a public hearing on the text amendments when completed.

Attested by: City Clerk 91 Contractor CITY OF HUGO Mayor M CITY OF HUGO CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT TO: Bryan Bear, City Administrator FROM: Scott Anderson, Public Works Director SUBJECT: Replacement of 2006 Elgin Crosswinds Sweeper DATE: For the City Council Meeting of January 4, 2016 BACKGROUND Included in the City's Equipment Purchasing Fund is $225,000 for the replacement of the City's Elgin Crosswinds sweeper. The Crosswinds sweeper is now 10 years old and is due to be replaced following the City's equipment replacement schedule. The current sweeper has served the City reasonably well over the past 10 years, however, staff has been disappointed with the overall effectiveness of the removal of smaller sized particles from the roadways. The City's current sweeper is ineffective at removing the rocks left behind after seal coating projects as well as the much smaller silt particles commonly found near construction sites. These particles, if not removed from the roadway, enter our storm sewers and then deposit into our stormwater ponds. Over time, these ponds will require maintenance for the removal of the sediment. Staff has tested several different makes and models of sweepers to ensure that a chosen replacement would be more effective at picking up and removing the particles that the current sweeper cannot. The Tymco 500x sweeper outperformed the other sweepers tested and best fits our needs. This sweeper was very effective at the removal of the seal coat remnants, which is the most common resident complaint we receive relating to street sweeping. Staff feels it's in the best interest of the City for Council to consider the replacement of this piece of equipment. Staff has put forth considerable effort in researching replacement equipment and feels confident in making a recommendation based on cost, performance and reliability. The equipment listed below has been reviewed with Finance Director, Ron Otkin, and he is in agreement with the Public Works staff recommendation to replace the current street sweeper. If approved by the City Council, this piece of equipment would be purchased using a Mn/DOT contract through the Cooperative Purchasing Venture (CPV) assuring the City of Hugo will receive the best price available while providing us with necessary options to choose from.

L'-fi Printed Name and Title Date: 11 Agenda Number H2 CITY OF HUGO COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Memorandum TO: Bryan Bear, City Administrator FROM: Rachel Leitz, Community Development Assistant SUBJECT: Creation of Solar Energy Systems Ordinance DATE: December 28, 2015 for the City Council meeting of January 4, 2016 1. PLANNING COMISSION MEETING UPDATE: At its December 17, 2015 meeting the Planning Commission considered the solar energy systems ordinance and held a public hearing. Staff provided background and reviewed the ordinance with the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission had comments on ownership of systems, removal of systems, location of solar farms within floodplains, and screening. Commissioners wanted staff to clarify that if a solar farm is transferred to another person/entity, the new owner will also be expected to post financial security for removal of the system. The Planning Commission also wanted staff to review the screening measures and correct a typo within the expiration and termination section. No one spoke during the public hearing and the Commission agreed that the proposed solar energy system ordinance was necessary and recommended approval to the City Council with review of their comments. 2. BACKGROUND AND ORC MEETING UPDATES: At its May 4, 2015, meeting the City Council authorized the Ordinance Review Committee (ORC) to create a solar ordinance to regulate future solar projects within the City. At the time of the request to the City Council, staff had been receiving many inquiries from solar companies and residents regarding the construction of solar farms. Although these requests have slowed, there are still many proposed projects around the area and an increase in interest surrounding the use of solar energy. Staff and the ORC have met numerous times to create a solar ordinance. The ORC have discussed different solar projects and established two separate uses. They talked over where these projects should be located within the City and certain requirements that should be required to prevent any adverse effects on the community at large. The ORC believed that the solar energy systems ordinance was ready to be presented to the Planning Commission and to the public for comments at its December 17, 2015 meeting and recommended approval of the solar energy systems ordinance. Solar Energy Systems Page 2 2. SUMMARY OF ORDINANCE: A. Solar Energy Systems Ordinance The purpose of this section is to allow for the generation of renewable energy within the City of Hugo. Promoting the safe, effective, and efficient use of solar energy, may reduce the onsite consumption of fossil fuels and utility -supplied electric energy while avoiding adverse impacts on the community at large. The ordinance will allow for solar farms and accessory solar energy systems under certain standards. B. General Standards The ordinance outlines general standards for solar energy systems that are required for both solar farms and accessory solar energy systems. Some of these requirements are the labelling of the solar energy system, the property owner securing any desired solar energy easement to protect solar access, and that all solar energy systems be in compliance with adopted City and State building code, electrical code, and plumbing code. C. Solar Farm The solar farm subsection provides performance standards for solar energy systems that are composed of multiple solar panels where the primary or a significant land use, whether by footprint or visual impact, of the parcel is for a solar array. An interim use permit application is required to be submitted for approval by the Planning Commission and City Council before a building permit is issued for a solar farm. Some of the performance standards include locating a solar farm on a minimum lot size of 10 acres within the Long Term Agricultural (LA), Agricultural (AG), Rural Residential (RR), and Future Urban Service (FUS) zoning districts or in any other zoning district within the floodplain, a 50 foot setback from all property lines and public road right-of-ways, and a decommissioning plan with financial security. D. Accessory Solar Energy System The accessory solar energy system subsection is structured to apply to solar energy systems composed of a single or multiple solar panels that are accessory to the primary land use. For example, roof mounted systems on a residential home or commercial building or even a small pole mounted system in a resident's back yard. An accessory solar energy system is intended to primarily reduce on-site consumption of utility power. A building permit shall be issued for an accessory solar energy system. All commercial or industrial accessory solar energy systems will require submittal for approval by City staff under certain standards. Denial of a building permit request may be appealed to the Planning Commission by following the procedures outlined in the interim use permit section of the code. The performance standards for the accessory solar energy system follow similar guidelines for accessory structures in regards to setbacks, size of the system, and location requirements. Other performance standards stipulate that roof -mounted systems are not accessory structures and are Solar Energy Systems Page 3 excluded from size and number calculations for accessory structures and other architectural standards for systems and they area they are located. 3. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff believes that the solar energy systems ordinance is appropriate for regulating future solar projects within the City. Staff recommends approval of the solar energy systems ordinance. 3. ORC RECOMMENDATION: The ORC agreed that the ordinance was a good way to allow and regulate solar energy systems. The ORC recommended approval of the solar energy systems ordinance to the Planning Commission. 3. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning Commission agreed that the solar energy systems ordinance was needed as interest for these projects has increased in the past year. The Planning Commission had a few thoughts on how to clarify parts of the ordinance and recommended approval of the solar energy systems ordinance, with review of their comments, to the City Council.
