O'Neill, Burke and O'Neill, Ltd. gave a verbal response to their ]: ['tcr' Margo 4.,. John Gibbs did not believe that their law firm could provide a legal opinion but suggested that the commission send a request to Michael J. Hoover, Director of Lawyer's Professional Responsiblity. Director Weiss questioned whether this would really be a problem, in regards to the commission, because only two cities were served by the firm. Director Henderson replied that he was the person who questioned this, but after reading and hearing their response he is satisified by their answers. Mr. Bob Sachs of Continental Cablevision stated that the record should be clear regarding O'Neill, Burke, and O'Neill in reference to 1.)

TIME OF ADJOURNMENT: 8:34 P.M. Prepared by: Ken Hanson Commission Secretary 3 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES APRIL 10, 1984 The regular meeting of the Mendota Heights Park and Recreation Commission was called to order at 7:30 o'clock P.M. by Chairperson Stein. Members present were: Stein, Doffing, Knitting, McMonigal, Singer, Schneeman and Williams. Also present were Terry Blum and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Maple, Jr. APPROVAL OF The minutes of the March 13, 1984, meeting were approved as prepared. MINUTES VACANT LOT IN Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Maple, Jr., 2166 Timmy Street, said that the CURLEY'S vacant lot at the corner of Timmy and Cullen in Curley's Addition ADDITION has become a problem to the homeowners next to it. Originally intended as an access to Rogers Lake, the lot has attracted unwanted vehicles and debris. The bike trail that ends at the lot brings unwanted bicycle traffic across private properties. Public Works Director Danielson reported on this lot during the joint Park/Council meeting, making unnecessary the commission's decision to investigate the matter. He advised the Park Commission to sell the land for development, while retaining an easement for a bike/hiking trail. He will work out costs and engineering feasibility. VALLEY PARK Stein said that he received a call from a Minneapolis woman who was PROPERTY interested in buying a lot to build on in the southwest corner of Valley Park. The commission agreed not to negotiate to that end. JOINT The City Council and staff joined the Park Commission at 8:00 P.M. for MEETING a joint discussion. Present were Mayor Lockwood, Councilmembers Hlesener, Hartmann, Mertensotto and Witt. Also present were City Administrator Frazell, Financial Advisor Shaughnessy and Public Works Director Danielson. Stein introduced the subject of a bond issue for the purpose of land acquisition and bike trails. Shaughnessy presented an estimated figure of $1,105,000 for the two proposed properties and the backbone trail system. This would mean that a resident with a home valued between $120,000 and $133,000 (average home value in Mendota Heights) would pay between $41.91 and $48.27 annually on a 20 year bond issue. Considerable discussion centered on the best way to approach buying of land presently not on the market. Frazell and'Lockwood will set up an appointment with Eileen Kennedy (formerly Wachtler) to talk about the Wachtler property. The superintendent of District #197 will be asked to reaffirm the City's first right of refusal on the school property. It was agreed that a survey to find out how residents feel about additional park land and bike trails needed to be done. Witt said she felt that a phone questionnaire would be sufficient. Park Minutes, April 10, 1984 Page Two Looking ahead, Mertensotto said that a referendum should not be part of a General election. He said it would have a better chance in a primary or special election. Costs on conducting a referendum were distributed, as well as maps of th% properties and park bond projections. `The estimate for a proposed bond issue does not include improvements or equipment. Blesener felt the bond issue should include partial development of both properties. Da'iblson will estimate full br%d,partial deVelopme,nt of the properties. It was pointed out that the properties being discussed for acquisition have been designated for years as park land in the Comprehensive Plan. Further action on a bond issue will wait on response from the property owners. The City Newsletter will keep residents informed of developments in this area. The properties being discussed will be two stops on a proposed bus tour for the City Council, staff and Park Commission, tentatively set for Saturday, May 19th. MISCELLANEOUS The next meeting of the Park and Recreation Commission will be May 8th, at 7:30 P.M. ADJOURN There being no further business to come before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned.

Mr. Boike owns all of Lot 7, and the south half of Lot 8, and desires to purchase the north half of Lot 8 from Mrs. Simmons. Mrs. Simmons would still own all of Lots 9 - 13, Block 3. The Commission members had no questions. Planner Dahlgren, in his memo to the Commission, suggested that Lots 9, 10, and 11, be combined into two 90 foot lots, rather than leave them as three 60 foot lots. Mrs. Simmons indicated that she is not interested in this at the present time, as she has no interest in selling them. There were no persons present in the audience for the hearing. Planning Commission Minutes, April 24, 1984 Page Two Burke moved to close the public hearing at 8:18 o'clock P.M. Ridder seconded the motion.

The problem was that an overhanging house eave from Lot 4, Block 4, encroached onto a portion of Lot 5. Commissioner Burke noted that Planner Dahlgren's memo and drawing did not reflect the correct lot, and that it should be corrected. There was a brief discussion as to an item in the Code Enforcement Officer's report dated April 19, 1984, regarding the corner of the garage being 8.05 feet from the lot line, when 10 feet is required. Mr. Brent Baskfield, owner of Lot 5, had signed an Easement Agreement covering the encroachment of the eaves constructed on the roof of the open porch area, dated March 16, 1984.

Public Works Director Danielson noted that the City may possibly require a drainage easement on the northwesterly portion of the new lot created. After a brief discussion, Frank moved to waive the public hearing requirement and to recommend approval of a simple subdivision, sub- ject to the City obtaining a drainage easement for storm sewer and - receipt of a $600 park contribution. Ridder seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 MISCELLANEOUS The Commission acknowledged receipt of a memo from City Administrator Frazell relative to a Bus Tour and two joint Planning/City Council meetings in the month of May.

He also noted that sand and granular material will be removed from the site, and hauled off-site and that a 26 inch gas line is proposed to be relocated. He outlined the order of events leading to the completion of grading and relocation of the NSP gas line as follows: 1. Grading and removal of the material within the property acquired from Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company in Eagan would be done first and completed by August 15, 1984. 2.

After a brief discussion reqarding hearing requirements, Ridder moved to recommend approval of the conditional use permit as requested and to waive the public hearing requirement by the Planning Commission, noting that the Council should conduct a public hearing at the May 15th City Council meeting, and if there are any problems, to refer the case back to the Planning Commission for a public hearing on May 22nd.

This home was originally constructed by August Construction. August Construction at the time was a joint venture partner of Minnesota FSL Corporation responsible for platting, construction, code compliance etc. This joint venture relationship was severed in May, 1981 and Minnesota FSL Corporation proceeded to market all the model homes in the development. The setback violation was not known to us until the property was sold and closed. We request a variance of setback restriction violations. Very truly yours, Robert A. McKinstry Assistant Secretary Planning Commission Minutes, September 28, 1972 Page Four who definitely did not want to see Wachtler extended. Mr. Gene Schway, representing Pat 3 Golf'Course, asked Mr. Gryc why he would choose to put a road in along the south side of his home, along the golf course property. Mr. Gryc said he had more room on that side, but he could put a road in on either side of his home. After further discussion, Butler moved to recommend approval of the preliminary plat of EverGreen Knolls, without constructing Wachtler Road from Wentworth to Bachelor. Morson seconded the motion. Morson noted that Wachtler would not be open from north to south, but a westerly exit from the development would need to be found by the developer. Voting: 2 ayes, Butler and Morson. 5 nays, Kruse, Stefani, Burke, Blesener, and Frank. The motion failed to pass. Blesener made a motion to continue the public hearing to the next monthly meeting and that the developer come back with a drawing showing a westerly exit for this development. Morson seconded the motion. Stefani added a friendly amendment, noting that if Wachtler is eliminated in the new drawings, some provisions must be made for the future development of Par 3. Blesener accepted the amendment. Voting: all ayes. C._ CASE #82-18, MN FSL, This case was continued from the July 27th meeting, when Mn/ FSL VARIANCE requested a variance to allow a portion of a roof at 682 Ocala to remain over the property line of Brent Baskfield's lot at 687 Decorah Lane. Mr. Tom Balyk and Mr. Robert McKinstry, representing Mn/FSL were present, noting that they had given Mr. Baskfield an easement for the porch location. The Commission members asked Mr. Baskfield if he was agreeable to the easement and he responded that he had just received the easement a few minutes earlier and had not had time to look it over. Planner Dahlgren recommended that the Planning Commission do nothing on the variance request until the matter between Mn/FSL and Mr. Baskfield is resolved. Stefani moved, seconded by But ler, :to table the matter until an agreement is reached between Mn/FSL and Mr.'Baskfield.'.Votin s. 6 ayes, 1 nay, Kruse.

Berg Code Enforcement Officer SUBJECT: Case No. 82-18, Variance request for 682 Ocala Lane DISCUSSION Mr. Robert McKinstry of Mn%FSL, has contacted staff in regard to proceed with their variance request for 682 Ocala Lane. Planning Commission may recall Mr. Tom Balyk and Mr. McKinstry representing Mn/FSL were present at the Planning Commission meeting on September 28, 1982. (Case #82-18 Mn FSL variance) noting that they had given Mr. Brent Baskfield an easement for the setback encroachments. Note: Mr. Baskfield's property which is south of 682 Ocala Lane is affected by the setback encroachments. The variances required are as listed: 1. The covered porch is 2.4 feet from the property line. 10 feet required. 2. The eaves on the covered porch perpendicular to the south lot line is 3.98 inches over the property line. Eaves may extend 1.5 feet into required yard area. . he co ner of the garage is 8.05 feet from the lot line. 10 feet required. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends the approval of the previously listed variances subject to Planning Commission approval. As requested by the Planning Commission, the Bask - fields have signed an easement agreement and by doing so are in agreement with the variances. PRB:madlr A 27 July 1982 PLANNING REPORT CASE NUMBER: i APPLICANT• LOCATION: i ACTION REQUESTED: I I PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: 82-10 Brent Baskfield Northwest Corner of Decorah Lane and Ocala Lane Variance to Fence Height on Rear Lot Line Special Use Permit for Fence Height on Side Yard (Contiguous to Street) 1. Mr. Baskfield has purchased this residence recently from Minnesota Federal who have taken over the residential properties developed by August Construction Company in the Delaware Crossings project. He proposes to. construct a wrought iron fence, five feet in height, with one -half-inch square iron pickets placed six inches on center. The detail of this fence is illustrated on the site plan submitted by Mr. Baskfield, of which each of you has a copy. The rear yard of this property is contiguous to the side lot of the residential property to the north. Under these conditions, Section 4.8(2)c, the Ordinance states that a fence along this rear line may be only 30 inches high on that part of the fence line within thirty feet of the public right-of-way ( Ocala Lane). He intends to build the fence five feet high along -this rear property line and extend it southerly along the public right-of-way (east property line) to a point in line with the front of his house_(fronting on Decorah Lane). The fence would then extend from this point westerly to the southeast corner of his house. This proposed fence location is indicated on the site plan. 2. Section 4.8 (2)a, requires that any fence within thirty feet of a side street may be a maximum of 30 inches high. Relief from this requirement requires a Special Use Permit. 3. Attached is a letter from Mr. Baskfield dated 11 June 1982 addressed to the Mendota Heights Planning Commission indicating the reasons for his request. ' Obviously, Mr. Baskfield is concerned with the close proximity of the home that was misplaced in construction that is contiguous to his rear lot line, trespassing, and possible damage to his property, and the location for a future swimming pool. The problems of trespassing may have been somewhat influenced by the fact that _Mr. Baskfield, as you may have heard in recent news accounts, is the spokesman for Northwest Airlines. He indicates that during the recent strike he has had a greater than usual problems with malicious damage. That risk, of course, may well not be permanent, at least due to those circumstances. PLANNING REPORT DATE: CASE NUMBER: APPLICANT: LOCATION: ACTION.REQUESTED: 24 April 1984 82-18 Minnesota FSL Corporation, Inc. Easterly of Ocala Court Approval of Variance to Side Yard Setback PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 1. This case was first heard at the Planning Commission at its July meeting of 1982. Attached is a copy of the report prepared at that time. 2. =The case was continued pending preparation and acceptance of an easement from'the Brent Baskfields and Lance Mobergs. It is the Mobergs home that has its eaves over the property line of the Baskfield's lot. 3. Attached is a -copy of an easement that has been agreed upon between these two parties. Under these conditions, it would seem like the only appropriate action at this time would be to approve the variance based on the hardship that the home is already constructed, and would be extremely expensive to move the home back the appropriate distance. As long as the two property owners involved are satisfied, it would appear that the general public interest is not greatly affected. ®rm CASE NUMBER: 82-10 APPLICANT: Brent Baskfield Page 2 4. The existance of the nearness of the contiguous home, plus the utilities and drainage arrangements in his rear yard, obviously create some unusual conditions, particularly with respect to the location of a swimming pool. .The Public 'Works Director will comment regarding these engineering considerations. 5. Part of the problem with respect to the replacement of the pool is that the Ordinance requires that a pool to be constructed at least ten feet from the house. This is to prevent possible drainage problems with respect to pool leakage, and is a restriction normally adhered to. 6. One of the reasons for requiring the lower fence height on a corner lot is so as to maintain traffic visibility at the intersection. Section 4.7 of the Ordinance deails with traffic visibility and requires that no structure or planting exceed 36 inches high that would adversely affect such visibility on the corner. This"distance is normally construed to be a triangle drawn at a 45 degree angle to the streets at a point 30 feet perpendicular distance from either street. Thus, if a structure is placed 30 feet from each street, such a triangle will not•be infringed upon by the structure. Such a triangle drawn -on this site -would appear to require that the fence along Pontiac Place be moved approximately 18 feet to the north. This would. have the effect of moving the pool 18 feet north which would appear to be possible without conflicting with the drainage or easements in the rear yard. We feel that this is an important consideration inasmuch as it deals directly with the public safety. _Though the applicant proposes to build a fence that can be seen through, if the pool is placed only four feet from the side property line, it is likely that such a fence will ultimately be screened to provide privacy either with shrubbery or other material. 7. Mr. Baskfield proposes a five foot high fence because it is the minimum requirement required for enclosing a pool in a yard. Another adjustment that •might be considered is that of reducing the height of the fence at the northeast corner of the property, but enclosing the pool at a point further south with the required five foot fence. You will notice that in Mr. Baskfield's drawing, that there is such a fence running east and west from the northeast corner of his house. The fence may be built five feet high in all locations except 30 feet from Pontiac Street. Thus, if a lower fence is proposed within that 30 feet (for which the variance is being requested) this would alleviate the condition of a high fence next to the front yard on the property to the north. 8. It would appear that the case for locating a pool on the property has merit in being partially in the side yard inasmuch as the rear yard is encumbered with engineering concerns. It would appear from the drawing, however, that the pool could be moved further to the north, thereby occupying less of the side yard contiguous to the house, and providing for the traffic visiblity, which is one of the principal reasons for the reduced fence height in the 30 foot area contiguous to the street right- of-way. CASE NUMBER: 82-10 APPLICANT: Brent Baskfield Page 3 9. Our Engineering Department has checked out the nature of the utilities that run through the back yard and report that it is an underground electrical service and underground telephon service. Unless serving the aaskf efd• res Bence- oirly,r„these: utilities should-.have-lseen, placed',,in-,,the, easement along the north property line. The drainage,swale, Mr: Danielson reports, does exist running through the back yard, whereas it too should have been constructed within the drainage easement along the north property line. It would, however, be difficult to change this drainage condition at this time inasmuch as drainage from the continguous property to the east also runs through this swale. Thus, regrading of at least two lots would be necessary to reroute the drainage along the north property line. This is also complicated by the fact that the residence on the contiguous lot to the north was misplaced, and is closer to the rear lot line of Mr. Backfield's lot than allowed by Ordinance (10 feet) . 10. We have met with the Minnesota Federal people who have indicated their intent to apply for a variance with respect to this reduced side yard setback. 11. In summary, it would appear that Mr. Baskfield has a case due to the physical conditions of the land. It would appear reasonable in our opinion, however, to consider moving the proposed fence and pool further north along the side of the hoose. In other words, a portion of the rear yard could be used for the pool site, allowing for the movement of the pool away from the front yard setback a distance of ten to 15 feet. The variance, if approved, should be with the condition that no shrubbery or solid ence shall impede the required corner lot sight lines. This may happen in t e uture anyway because o t e need or privacy of this pool placed so close to the public street, the movement of the pool and fence further north would mitigate the impact of such a future visual obstruction.

Berg, Code Enforcdment Officer SUBJECT: Correction to Planning Commission Memo Variance Item 3 INTRODUCTION Council should note that the memo to the Planning Commission, item three, stated that the garage is encroaching on the side yard setback. That information was incorrect. Upon further checking, it has been determined that the garage wall is 10' from the lot line according to the survey.submitted. At the Planning Commission meeting they recommended approval of the requested variances. RECOMMENDATION Staff concurs with the_Planning,Commission's-'recommendation. ACTION REQUIRED If Council concurs, they should pass a motion granting the other two variances. 0 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO i TO: Mayor, City Council and City FROM: James E.

Frazell City Administrator CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO A TO: Planning Commission FROM: Jim Danielson Public Works Director SUBJECT: Case No. 84-01, Simmons, Lot Split April 19, 1984 A public hearing has been called for Tuesday to consider the Simmons lot split. It appears to staff that her request to rejoin a previously split lot and make it a whole lot again is a reasonable request. No new principal structure could be built on the lot because one already exists on it. Therefore no park dedication will be required. RECOMMENDATION Subject to receiving any public input to the contrary, staff sees no reason not to grant the request. I JED:madlr PLANNING REPORT DATE: 24 April 1984 CASE NUMBER: 84-01 APPLICANT: Gertrude M. Simmons LOCATION: East of Diego Lane, North of Winston i ACTION REQUESTED: Division of Land I PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: 1. If you look at the attached plat map you will see lots labeled 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13. Mrs: Simmons owns the north half of Lot 8 and the others to the north through Lot 13.. Mr. and Mrs. Boike own Lot 7 and the south half of Lot 8. Their house is indicated on the plat map and labeled 1000. All of the lots were originally platted at 60 feet. Over the years most of the homes in this 'area have developed on a lot and a half making a 90 foot lot. Some of the lots in the area are 120 feet (two lots). 2. Mrs. Simmons proposes to sell the north 30 feet (one-half) of Lot 8 to ® Mr. and Mrs. Boike, thus producing a 120 foot lot for the Boikes. Mrs. Simmons will then own the remaining Lots 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13. Obviously, the enlargement of the &pike°s lot from 90 feet to 120 feet is in accordance with City Ordinances and would appear to represent no problem in and of itself. 3. The only condition we might want to be aware of here for the future is whether or not Mrs. Simmons would propose to sell the remaining lots as is with 60 feet of frontage for Lots 9, 10, and 11. 'We would think that such small lots in this area would be inappropriate. It would appear appropriate, however, to divide those three lots into two lots creating two 90 foot lots which would be similar to what has been happening in the area in general. Lots 12 and 13 could then be sold as a single lot, which would in effect leave three building sites remaining for Mrs. Simmons land. We suggest that the Planning Commission and ouncil may wish to discuss this with Mrs. Simmons and perhaps add a condition to the lot division as proposed that the remaining lots be sold with a minimum of - e -et of frontage. i r ...

Anderson LOCATION: North of Ivy Falls Avenue, East of Sylvandale Road ACTION REQUESTED: Division of a Lot PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS: 1. Mrs. Anderson owns 340 feet of frontage on the north side of Ivy Falls Avenue on -which she has a home located approximately on the easterly half of the property. The property has a depth of 149 feet. The property is a corner lot having been created back in the late 60s when Ivy Falls Second Addition was platted with Sylvandale Road being : contiguous to the west side of the property. At that time Ivy Falls Avenue was extended to Sylvandale Road. 2. At this time she proposes to divide the westerly 140 feet to be sold as a single family lot. Inasmuch as the minimum lot requirements in the City are 100 feet of.frontage and 15,000 square feet of area, obviously each of the two lots involved here far exceed those minimums. 3. The street, sewer, and water are available as a result of previous construction and public improvement projects. 4. The Wetlands Systems Map of the City indicates that there is a drainage way that,passes through the northwesterly corner of this property. Thus, at:such time as a building is to be constructed on the property, it may be necessary to process a Wetlands Development Permit on the new lot to be sold for development. We have suggested to Mrs. Anderson that she might want to make the new lot larger than 140 feet inasmuch as the remaining lot will be substantially larger at 200 feet. The Commissibn may want to discuss this with her at the meeting. Moving the lot line slightly further east would make it easier to develop a home on the site in view of the wetlands regulations which require a home site to be 100 feet from the drainageway if possible. We will bring a large topographical map to the Planning Commission meeting so that the Commission can be more accurately aware of the exact location of the drainageway as it will affect the future development of this property. b� �:+�:,,�'�.-•.moi �s��.�.� _� � ��fir o..,�►� a � � � lid ■ �18eo ys TWIN � j----- '' ,��;� �' ��>IIIHtII!lfflHHl„rr.�■�r.1►Q ,,� ,Q'�� !� M.

Johnson SUBJECT: Water System Status Report INTRODUCTION The St. Paul Water contract agreement with Mendota Heights expired in September, 1982. Water service has continued, and probably will continue in the same manner as provided in the contract. St. Paul.Water officials pre- sented a new proposed contract agreement to Mendota Heights staff on February 10, 1984. St. Paul Water officials also presented a similar agreement to Maplewood and also plan to propose the same to West St. Paul. It may be of interest to know that St. Paul Water services all three municipalities on a retail basis, and does not have a current signed agreement with any of them. St. Paul Water does, however, have signed agreements with Roseville and Little Canada, providing them with water at a wholesale rate through master metering points. Mendota Heights staff have been reviewing the pros and cons of renewing the old agreement versus proposing the establishment of a Mendota Heights Water System. This implies buying water at wholesale rates from St. Paul, through one or two metering points, and operating the system as another enterprise operation. The "known" way would be to accept the new proposed agreement which is very similar to the former agreement. At this date, Maplewood is still attempting to negotiate major concessions from St. Paul Water, and West St. Paul is reviewing the proposed agreement. The preliminary data projected for a Mendota Heights Water System looks good. We have obtained comparative information from Roseville and Little Canada and have every reason to believe that Mendota Heights water users would benefit from a locally operated system. This status report is presented for two reasons: 1. To provide data and information concerning local water system operation. 2. To support and justify some additional engineering study prior to making a final decision. DETAIL The idea of buying wholesale from St. Paul Water has been discussed with their staff. They have provided a list of considerations, but have stopped short of setting a price for existing water meters or discussing the cost of water at wholesale rates. Some of the major considerations are: - 2 - 1. Contract to provide for 24 hour delivery at two metering points, unless an off-peak delivery scheme is agreed upon. 2. Mendota Heights to provide some amount of peak storage for peak demand. 3. Mendota, Heights to own and maintain all meters, both customer's me{ter`s' 'land master -meters. This- includes .testing 'the Imaster meters for accuracy at Mendota Heights' expense, and buying the existing customer meters. 4. St. Paul Water to get growth data and projections. 5. State Board of Health requires sampling. 6. Wholesale rate to be negotiated (much data needed on raw water costs, plus pumping costs in St. Paul). In addition to the above St. Paul Water related considerations, others include: 7. Determine the level of expertise and amount of labor needed to operate and maintain the Mendota Heights water distribution system. 8. Determine amount of equipment and maintenance supplies needed. 9. Establish meter reading and billing sequence. 10. Determine: a) Location of master meter points. b) Cost estimate for master meter installations. 11. Issue bonds to provide funds for: a) Master meter installations. b) Acquisition of existing customer meters. c) Acquisition of equipment and supplies. d) Any other start-up costs. -n Mendota Heights staff have addressed most of the foregoing considerations. Operating data from Roseville and Little Canada have been reviewed by Jim and Ed. Larry and I have used financial data from Roseville and Little Canada to assist in making similar projections for Mendota Heights. Larry has prepared an "Anticipated Expense Maintenance and Report: for a Mendota Heights Water System (see Exhibit A). You will note that he has anticipated one new certified person at a gross cost of $40,000. Other labor costs bring projected personnel services to $61,000. Maintenance costs project to approximately $24,000. The lower two entries reflect capital costs. All add up to approximately $117,000. - Assuming that Mendota Heights would have bought wholesale in 1983, and had the benefit of the Roseville wholesale rate, the water bill would have been $262,300. - 3 - System operating costs then are: $117,000 262,300 $379,300 Compare to St. Paul's total 1983 water sales of $387,300, plus receiving $7,800 from Mendota Heights for hydrant rental and maintenance. In other words, there is some $15,000 to $16,000 spread between St. Paul's retail revenues and a pro- jected Mendota Heights operation. This excess or margin is premised on: 1. 1983 projections only. As the system and load grows, the margin should grow. 2. Very tenuous figures on cost of master meters. 3. Virtually no "hydraulic" information on the independent operation of a Mendota Heights system which would depend on limited feed points in St. Paul and West St. Paul. COMMENTS AND CONCLUSIONS 1. The margin should grow. If Little Canada can operate a water system with some 900 connections, Mendota Heights should be able to operate a system with 2255 customer connections. The real benefit of operation would show up • as the system and load grow. 2. Capital costs for the master meter installations were virtually "pulled out of the air." Roseville and Little Canada costs were not comparable; hence no good cost data for this part of the projection. It is suggested that more engineering time and expertise be spent to more accurately predict costs. 3. We have made the assumption that of our seven water connections, five can be closed, and that only two metering points will be sufficient. (See Exhibit B). Big ASSUMPTION! The St. Paul West Side distribution system, and the West St. Paul distribution system need to be studied to see if two feed points are sufficient. Maybe only the 16 inch feeder on Thompson Avenue is sufficient, but can the Mendota Heights customers, the St.Paul customers and the West St. Paul customers afford to be isolated if our system is fed at only one point? There are many hydraulic and some practical questions that should be answered before we proceed with further plans. SEH Engineering have been informed of our operating plans and projections. We have given them the gist of the system characteristics, and requested them to submit a proposal. Their proposal is attached for your consideration. RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize SEH to collect additional data, prepare alternates and cost data for a maximum of $9,500. Funds are available in the Water Revenue Fund.

Plaza Dr. St. Paul, MN 55120 Gentlemen: RE: MENDOTA HEIGHTS, MN WATER SYSTEM P.C. #1343-72 This is our proposal for a study of the engineering factors involved in converting the Mendota Heights Water System from a St. Paul retail customer to a St. Paul wholesale customer. This proposal is the result of a meeting on April 4, 1984, at the Mendota Heights City Hall between Kevin Frazell and Orville Johnson of Mendota Heights and Duane Elliott and Wilbur Liebenow of Short -Elliott -Hendrickson, Inc. We propose the following Work Plan to accomplish this study: I. GATHER DATA We will gather existing reports, studies, maps and other data which is available from the City of Mendota Heights, West St. Paul and St. Paul, that will be useful in this study. We will also meet with and discuss this study with Elmer Huset, retired manager of the St. Paul Water Department. II. ANALYZE DATA The data gathered will be analyzed to determine that sufficient data is available to complete this study. III. PROJECT DEMAND The future water demand for Mendota Heights will be determined based on past records and land use planning studies. IV. DISCUSS WITH ST. PAUL WATER DEPARTMENT We will meet with the St. Paul Water Department to discuss various ways of satisfying the required demand of Mendota Heights as a wholesale customer of St. Paul. 200 GOPHER BUILDING • 222 EAST LITTLE CANADA ROAD • ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA 55117 • PHONE (612) 484-0272 City of Mendota Heights April 23, 1984 Page #2 V. ALTERNATIVES FOR SUPPLYING THE PROJECTED DEMAND The alternative ways of supplying the Mendota Heights demand will be reviewed in this part of the study. The optimum number of connections will be studied as well as the economics of off-peak delivery. VI. COST ESTIMATES Cost Estimates of feasible alternatives will be prepared. VII. RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the study of the alternatives and the cost estimates, an alternative will be recommended. The recommended alternative will consider reliability as well as economics. VIII. REPORT The results of our study will be presented in a bound report with supporting data as necessary to provide the City Council and staff with the information needed to make the final decision. We propose to do the study on an hourly basis at salary cost times a multiplier. The study cost will not exceed $9,500. We will consider this proposal a contract between us when you return one signed copy of this proposal to us. Sincerely, SHORT-ELLIOTT-HENDRICKSON, INC. Wilbur R. Liebenow kmt CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS by CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Kevin D. Frazell City Administrator April 26, 1984 SUBJECT: Public Works 1984/1985 Labor Contract At the last Council meeting, Council authorized staff to negotiate changes in the labor contract which would permit the implementation of an amended summer work schedule for the public works crew. We are meeting with union representatives at 10:00 A.M., Friday, April 27th to work out those details. Assuming that we can reach agreement, as I am confident we%can, it is the intention of the Business Agent to present the contract offer to the employees on Friday afternoon. Assuming that the employees ratify the contract on the afternoon of the 27th, I will have the new contract written and prepared for consideration at the meeting of May 1st. It will be handed out with the add-on agenda. Since you will not have an opportunity to review the contract in detail prior to the meeting, I will take a few moments at the meeting to go through the changes with you. Respectful1 submitted, Kevin D. Frazell City Administrator KDF:madlr CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council April 26, 1984 FROM: Kevin D. Frazell City Administrator SUBJECT: Resolution Concerning Independent Management of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission Attached is a memo from the attorneys of the Suburban Rate Authority, urging our consideration of a resolution to endorse the idea of an independent management study of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission. I believe that the memo from the SRA attorneys, as well as the letter from the Boland Commission, adequately describes the issue; therefore I will not elaborate. RECOMMENDATION Although Mendota Heights has not been active in the Suburban Rate Authority for the past couple of years, I wholeheartedly concur that the concerns about the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission deserve the close scrutiny and attention of every local government in this metropolitan area. Therefore, I would recommend that Council adopt the suggested resolution, so that it can be forwarded to the appropriate parties. ACTION REQUIRED If Council concurs with the recommendation, it should pass a motion adopting the resolution supporting independent management study of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission. Respectful submitted, Kevin D. Frazell City Administrator KDF:madlr attachments April 24, 1984 ! TO: SRA Communities FROM: SRA Attorneys At the meeting of the SRA board last week, there was extended discussion about the progress, or lack of progress, in implementing' the recommendations of the Boland Commission concerning the operations of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission. The Boland Commission, as you recall, was appointed by Governor Perpich to study the MWCC because there seemed to be so much concern about the efficiency and cost effectiveness of its operations. The Commission, after some weeks of study, made a series of recommendations. Extracts from the Commission report, including their fourteen major recommendations, are attached hereto. After the Boland Commission report was released it was discussed by the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities, the Metropolitan Council, the Metropolitan Area Managers Association, the SRA and others. A consensus developed that there should be legislation which would change the manner in which MWCC commissioners are selected as well as certain other things related to the MWCC and the Metropolitan Council. It was also agreed that some of the recommendations of the Boland Commission could be dealt with through an independent management study which would not, itself, require legislation. It now appears that the legislation was not introduced because of a decision made within the Governor's office. The question remains as to whether the independent management study will go forward. There is some indication that there is resistance to having a study which is independent.` It is feared, by those who have been advocating an independent study, that if any study is undertaken at all, it will be done under the control of the MWCC itself. With .this in mind, the board of directors of the SRA directed us to prepare a resolution for consideration by the councils of SRA members. The resolution seeks to emphasize the importance of the management study and of making certain that it is an independent study. The resolution is being submitted to you upon the recommendation of the SRA board. If it is adopted by your community, the SRA suggests that copies of it be transmitted to the parties listed "in the concluding paragraph of the resolution. GOVERNOR'S CITIZENS COMMISSION TO REVIEW MWCC SUITE 451 245 EAST 6TH STREET ST. PAUL, MINNESOTA 55101 December 29, 1983 Governor Rudy Perpich State of Minnesota Office of the Governor St. Paul, Minnesota 55155 Dear Governor Perpich: We are presenting you with this report to complete our charge to investigate, in the broadest fashion possible, the Metro- politan Waste Control Commission. Our recommendations cover those areas needing immediate attention, help control and contain costs in the future, and deserve attention for their new approaches to solving the probelms of how best to treat waste in the next 20 years. Specific recommendations focus on involving the public through changes in structure, and on reducing cost increases through management improvements and by bringing compensation and con- tracting into compliance with state policies, procedures and programs. With the growing importance of water and waste treatment, we suggest investigating the possible creation of a new industry in this state. Alternative methods for processing wastes could improve Minnesota's business climate and focus attention on Minnesota's professional resources - the Freshwater Biological Institute and its proposed Waste Management Institute, the University of Minnesota's College of Biological Sciences and Humphrey Institute - that are in place and already effectively working with private industry to look at waste -processing December 29, 1983 Governor Rudy Perpich Page 'Two alternatives and alternatives to management in the public sector so that public -funded operations can operate more efficiently. These assets, as pointed out in our report, could promote Minnesota as a better place to live and as a state with a strong interest in maintaining the high quality of its most important natural resources, water and air. Some of our specific recommendations involve opening up the decision-making process and encouraging more public input. We conclude that the newspaper articles encouraged us, given your broad charge, to recommend changes within the MWCC and with respect to its relationships with other governmental agencies, and especially with the public. The most important area of concern we considered is the compelling, never-ending need to make the MWCC responsive to its users. We ask you to request legislative action and to implement changes through your office to change this situation as quickly as possible., The damage to the public confidence in this agency has been compounded by rapidly increasing costs and the possibility of a substantial subsidy to meet rising sewer charges to lower-income homeowners in the future. As industry continues its withdrawal from the system and the population in this area drops or'changes from families to single and retired persons, the burden of sewer costs on individual taxpayers", I will continually become heavier. I We believe our recommendations set out ways you and other public officials can reverse this situation. The best way to start may well be by assembling a new team dedicated to involving and serving the public. We appreciate the help and assistance received from your office and MWCC staff and commissioners, past and present. The public and public officials assisted us greatly in their testimony and in preparing many of the reports we have included in our Appendices. Finally, we appreciate the opportunity to review this important agency whose operations affect the health of everyone of us We believe our recommendations will ensure the MWCC becomes-- December 29, 1983 Governor*Rudy Perpich Page Three more responsive to the public and more efficient in using scarce public monies to perform a vital service to our communities. Sincerely, C'V V joh�ii E. BodJand, Chair Thor G. Bank, .E. �=-- CIfarles K. Dayton/ 6 0,�- a. Bonnie A. Kennedy Malcoi4m W. MdDonaid Karen L. Dingle, Staff SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS 1) The position of Chair chould be full-time. 2) Sixteen commissioners should be selected by the , Metropbt!'11tan Council, 3) An ombudsperson function should be established by the Legislature. The person or persons hired should report to the Governor. 4) Public rate hearings should be held yearly by MWCC to determine the rates to support the proposed budget. 5) An appeals process for rates and other measurement methods decisions impacting communities must be put in place. 6) An independent management study should be performed to develop a streamlined model for management to be used by the MWCC. 7) A Code of Ethics should be adopted immediately. 8) Hiring policies should be revised to ban nepotism, preclude hiring persons with conflicts of interest, and verify education/employment experience prior to hiring. -9) an internal auditor position should be created and must be accountable to the Governor. - 10) Parts of operations, such as electrical maintenance, research, sampling and measurement of functions should be contracted out, after the labor agreements have been changed to remove the sub -contracting clause. 11) MWCC Labor Agreements must be brought into conformance with State agreements. 12) procedures for awarding and amending contracts must be conformed with procedures used by State agencies. 13) An actuarial review should be done to determine present and future unfunded liability for retirement benefits and other fringe benefits and should estimate the yearly amount to be added to operating costs for funding these benefits. 14) A Waste Resource Task Force should be formed to study alternatives and propose long-range plans for dealing with all,the State's wastes. City of Mendota Heights Dakota County, Minnesota RESOLUTION NO. 84 - RESOLUTION SUPPORTING INDEPENDENT MANAGEMENT STUDY OF METROPOLITAN WASTE CONTROL COMMISSION WHEREAS, many municipal officials, businessmen and other persons throughout the metropolitan area have. expressed grave concern about the operations of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission, and WHEREAS, in recognition of such concerns, Governor Rudy Perpich commendably appointed an able and representative Governor's Citizens Commission to review the MWCC, and WHEREAS, such commission conducted an extensive investigation of the oper- ations of the MWCC and of public perceptions of it, and WHEREAS, such commission, on December 29, 1983, reported its findings and recommendations to the Governor of the State of Minnesota, and WHEREAS, such recommendations included a recommendation for the conduct of an independent management study of MWCC, and ® WHEREAS, the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities, the Association of Metropolitan Area Managers, the Suburban Rate Authority, and others concurred in the recommendation that such an independent management study be conducted, and WHEREAS, it appears that the state planning office has undertaken initial steps toward obtaing such an independent study, and WHEREAS, the aforesaid organizations have expressed -their interest in pro- viding representation on a committee which would help to formulate the work program for such study, to monitor its progress and to evaluate its conclusions, and WHEREAS, it is critical to the credibility and acceptability,of any such management study that it be an independent study, rather than a study done under the supervision and control of the MWCC, and WHEREAS, such commission recommended a number of measures requiring, legis- lative action, but it now appears that the Governor's office has chosen not to support any such legislative action at thi.s time, and WHEREAS, the compromising or abandoning of the concept of an independent management study, especially when coupled with a lack of legislative action, would constitute a severely damaging blow to the hopes and expectations of those who have been working in good faith to establish a higher level of confidence in the MWCC, NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights, Minnesota, as follows: 1. This Council strongly endorses and urges the conduct of an independent management study of the MWCC as recommended by the Governor's Citizens Commission to review the MWCC. 2. This Council believes that such study will have maximum value only if it is an independent study formulated and conducted through the use of an advisory committee broadly representative of the municipalities in the metropolitan area. 3. This Council urges the Governor of the State of Minnesota and other appropriate officials to take whatever actions may be necessary to initiate such an independent study at the earliest possible date. 4. Let a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Governor of the State of Minnesota, the chairman and members of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission, the chairman and members of the Metropolitan Council and the members of the Minnesota State Legislature representing this city. Adopted by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights this 1st day of May, 1984. CITY COUNCIL CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS By Robert G. Lockwood, Mayor ATTEST: Kathleen M.

She is for the trail construction but is opposed to the lot sale, therefore she has asked to be placed on this agenda in order to try and persuade Council to change their minds and retain the lot for park purposes. Her suggestion is that we put the trail down the center of the lot and plant the rest of the lot with dense evergreens. I have received two other calls asking about the extension of the Mn/DOT trail and when I explained the existing proposal to them they expressed that they were not opposed to the lot sale. Staff continues to feel that the previously approved plan is the best solution. Mr. Anderson, the other abutting property owner, was concerned about the quality of a home that would be built on the lot. I would therefore suggest that the City retain as a condition of the sale of the lot the right of revi.ew and approval of house plans. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the previous.ly adopted plan be followed. 0 ,I WMC., MATERIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS & EQUIPMENT 310 SNELLING AVENUE, NO., ST.

My corm-ents are: 1. Layout looks good. It maximizes area of lot for other uses. 2. I an sure the Maple's (Lot 9) would appreciate some sort of fence to protect their property from trespassers. 3. I would prefer the lot be maintained as part of Mendota Heights park system. As you know, Curley`s Addition is fairly isolated. It would be nice to have at least one internal "open area". However, this lot would have to be maintained. Primarily this would involve just mowing on a regular basis. 4. Without a regular maintenance program, this lot will revert back to a local dumping ground. Should this be the case, I would prefer the lot be sold for a single family residence. 5. It is my understanding that the City of Mendota Heights will incorporate restrictive convenants should the sale of this lot became necessary. These covenants will bar such items as factory built homes, floor plans less than 2,000 square feet and the like. Vincen I help in this matter. r eart n TA ..�.0 s CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO April 25, 1984 L TO: Mayor, City Council and City A inistrator FROM: Edward F. Kishel City Engineer SUBJECT: Water System Pressure Reducing Valves Job No. 8241 BACKGROUND: Because of water hammer problems in the Industrial Park area, the City along with the St. Paul Water Utility installed a pressure reducing valve and appurtenances. This work was done about a year ago, to re- duce the City water pressure to levels which would prevent the accidental operation of fire sprinkler systems in that area due to excessive water pressures developed by the sudden closing of equipment valves at Minnesota Knitting Mills. In correcting this situation, it caused another problem. It seems that by reducing the -pressure, existing sprinkler systems were found not to function as designed with the result that proper fire protection was not available. DISCUSSION: Because of a lack of protection to existing sprinklered facilities, owners protested and a staff decision was reached to discontinue the use of the City pressure reducing valve and to require Minnesota Knitting Mills to install individual equipment reducing valves to solve their water harmer problem, thus rendering the City's equipment unnecessary. ALTERNATIVE: Because of the above decision, St. Paul Water Utility agreed to purchase said equipment from Mendota Heights at the Utility's.earliest convenience when a need for the equipment became available. Said need has now presented itself and the attached letter from Tom Mogren indicates that they will purchase the equipment at our cost. The Water Utility has also agreed to provide all necessary labor, equipment and materials to remove the valves and to place the City water system in operation as it was prior to the installation of pressure reducing equipment. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council approve of Mr. Mogren's request to purchase the valves at a total cost of $3,880.00 (actual cost to Mendota Heights). ACTION REQUIRED: If Council wishes to implement staff recommendation it should pass a motion accepting St. Paul Water Utility's offer. :�tA ,''a,�` VJ' BOARD OF WATER COM MISSIC> g pTHOMAS,D.MOGREN Generbl M pp f DEBORAEA� , pAGF.FAGMPDEN s r JOHN J '� 3L Y.

J. MEUWISSEN pt, of Water'Distribution ROGER A. MOHROR Supt. of Water Supply APS t" Due to fire protection needs in your industrial park area, we understand there is no longer a need for the City of Mendota Heights to have the above mentioned valves in service. The Water Utility is currently in the process of improving its distribution system and requires a 12" pressure reducing valve for one of its projects. The valve presently at the elevated storage tank matches the Utility's valve requirements. Therefore, the Water Utility desires to purchase the existing 12" Golden Anderson Pressure Reducing Valve assembly, including the 2" by-pass, from the City of Mendota Heights, for the sum of $3,880.00.

Frazell City Administrator SUBJECT: Appointment of Fire Department Officers As was described in a lengthy memo submitted with the April -17th agenda packet, the City has now gone through most of the steps of the process outlined for the selection of new fire department officers. As reported in that memo, Mr. William Lerbs is recommended by the selection committee for the position of Chief, and Mr. John Maczko for the position of Assistant Chief. Making those appointments at the April 17th meeting was deleted from the agenda, since we did not )at that time have a letter of resignation from current Chief, Mr. LeRoy Noack. Rather, the Council held a meeting with Mr. Noack at the end of the regular Council session, to discuss his impending resignation. At that meeting, Mr. Noack indicated that his resignation would be forthcoming in the following week. At the writing of this memo, and at the time we are sending out the Council agenda packets, we still have not received that letter of resignation. Mayor Lockwood intends to contact Mr. Noack during the weekend, to see whether the resignation is forthcoming. Since we do not have the resignation at this time, and do not know whether we will have it by Tuesday evening's meeting, I will not elaborate further about the appointment of the officers. However, on Tuesday evening, I will be prepared with a recommendation for appropriate Council action, both if we have Chief Noack's letter of resignation, or if we do not.
