(See how responsive staff can be at salary setting time!) 3. Agenda Adoption With no changes in the agenda, Council should adopt and work from the pink agenda already printed. 8.h. Lexington/110 Appraisal Quotes Attached is a follow up letter from Blake Davis, amending his proposal to add the cost of appraising the equipment and personal property in the two businesses. Such appraisal would be necessary for the SOS store, but not needed for the Curley Furniture Library. Therefore, the respective quotes would be: Blake Davis - $2,200; Penfield - $2,140. Croix oil has indicated that, if the project ultimately proceeds, they would be willing to reimburse the City for the cost of the appraisal on the SOS site. John Duffy has also indicated a willingness to participate in the cost of the appraisal for the Curley property. 8.1. Airport Runway Extension MASAC representative Bernie Friel has some additional comments that he recommends be added to the letter in your agenda packet. Larry Shaughnessy will have a copy of Bernie's comments at the meeting.

U A I nt AXES DAVIS M A I December 1.3, 1988 Mr. Larry Shaughnessy City of Mendota Heights 750 co. Plaza Drive Mendota Heights, MN 55120 R171: Supplementary Fee Two Parcels Southeast Corner Dear Mr. Shaughnessy: Quotation Highway 110 & Lexington When I originally quoted you a fee to appraise the above two parcels I assumed that no personal property or equip- ment used in the businesses would be included in my val- uations. You have since instructed me that such personal property and equipment will, in deed, be included in the valuation process. I am writing this lette , r to amend my fee quotation to include items of personal property and equipment. My valuations still would include no inventory and no value, if any, for the businesses which are operating on the premises. With respect to the convenience store the fee would increase by $300 to $1,500 to allow for valuing the personal prop- erty and equipment. With respect to the furniture library the fec would increase by $150 to $850. The total fee for the two of them including land, buildings, personal property, and equipment will, therefore, be $2,350. If there is additional information with regard to this matter, please touch with me at any time. Yours very truly, so Blake S. Davis, MAI BSI)/ns which You will require feel free to get in CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO December 15, 1988 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Mary Ann DeLaRosa, Deputy City Clerk SUBJECT: Reminder of Starting Time for Council Meeting Please remember that the December 20 Council meeting will begin at 8:00 P.M., rather than the normal time of 7:30. This is due to the School District's levy referendum being conducted on that date. madlr It appears that the proposed runway extension will result in increased use of runway 29R/11L. Operations on this runway have a serious detrimental effect on our City residents. The failure to direct traffic in the area of the City, south of a 105.degree heading, which has been zoned to accept aircraft traffic, is inexcusable and should be reflected in the EIS. Furthermore, we believe the failure to provide an EAW with respect to the movement of flight tracks to the north, off 29L/11R may be actionable. Although we have inquired of the FAA, we have not received satisfactory answers to our questions regarding the lack of an EAW. Page No. 2415 November 1, 1988 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY STATE OF MINNESOTA Minutes of the Regular Meeting Held Tuesday, November 1, 1988 Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the regular meeting of the City Council, City of Mendota Heights, was held at 7:30 o'clock P.M. at the Fire Station, 2121 Dodd Road, Mendota Heights, Minnesota. Mayor Mertensotto called the meeting to order at 7:30 o'clock P.M. The following members were present: Mayor Mertensotto, Councilmembers Blesener, Cummins Hartmann and Witt. AGENDA ADOPTION Councilmember Hartmann moved adoption of the revised agenda for the meeting, removing items g though j from the consent calendar. Councilmember Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 CONSENT CALENDAR Councilmember Cummins moved approval of the consent calendar for the meeting, including authorization for execution of all necessary documents contained therein. a. Acknowledgment of the Code Enforcement monthly report for October. b. Acknowledgment of the minutes of the October 25th Planning Commission meeting. c. Approval of the issuance of a temporary on -sale 3.2 malt beverage license to St. Peter's Church in connection with its winter party on January 21, 1989 from 5:30 to 7:30 P.M., d. Approval of a request from Police Chief Delmont for authorization to apply for a State matching grant for Crime Prevention. e. Approval of the list of contractor licenses dated November 1, 1988 and attached hereto. Page No. 2416 November 1, 1988 f. Approval of the List of Claims dated November 1, 1988 and totalling $254,971.66. Councilmember Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 STOP SIGN REQUEST Council acknowledged a request from Mr. Vern Gunderson, 1916 Walsh Lane, for stop or yield signs on Walsh Lane, along with an associated memo from Public Works Director Danielson. Councilmember Cummins felt that the request is similar to the Copperfield area request, and that if stop signs were placed as requested, it would make Walsh Lane more of a through street. He stated that unless the Police Department gives some indication that the current conditions are unsafe, he believes the intersections with Walsh would be better off un -signed. Councilmember Blesener felt that if any signage should occur, it should be a four way stop at Stratford and Walsh. The matter was referred to the Police Department for report and -recommendation, especially relating the 4 -way stop suggestion. WAGON WHEEL Council acknowledged a report from Public TRAIL REQUEST Works Director Danielson regarding the requests for a trail along Wagon Wheel Trail which had been referred to him on October 18th. In the report, Mr. Danielson suggested three options: to wait until MSA construction of Wagon Wheel occurs, as this upgrading includes a trail; to wait until after the park referendum has been held; and to widen the shoulder in 1989, using Special Park Fund monies. Mayor Mertensotto felt that the trail construction should wait until the MSA project, and that the project should be advanced on the MSA project schedule. He did not feel it would be appropriate to expend Park Fund monies when MSA will finance the construction as part of the upgrade project. Page No. 2417 November 1, 1988 Councilmember Cummins felt that in any event it should be laid over until the park study group has a chance to comment and make a recommendation on the matter. Councilmember Hartmann agreed, and also suggested that the project be advanced in the MSA schedule. Public Works Director Danielson informed Council that it would be two or three years minimum before the project could be completed via MSA but that it would be possible to bond for the project and do it earlier. Treasurer Shaughnessy concurred that the City could bond for the project because the City's MSA bonds are nearly paid off and the City has a considerable amount of bonding authority. Mayor Mertensotto suggested that Council review the MSA program to determine where this project would fit in the priorities and try to get the Wagon Wheel reconstruction done within the next two years. Councilmembers Blesener and Witt felt that Wagon Wheel must be a part of the City's trails program. Council directed that Public Works Director Danielson prepare a follow-up report on the options for consideration just after the first of the year. LIQUOR STORE HOURS Council acknowledged a memo from the City Clerk regarding a request from MGM Liquors for an ordinance amendment to allow their facility to remain open until 10:00 P.M. on the day before Thanksgiving, as is permissible under state statute. Councilmember Blesener moved adoption of Ordinance No. 259, "AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 209 (Codified as Ordinance No. 1403)," as amended to clarify the titles of each category of license. Councilmember Hartmann seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Page No. 2418 November 1, 1988 EQUIPMENT PURCHASE Councilmember Blesener moved to authorize issuance of a purchase order to Dodd Technical for $2,616 for a Hewlett Packard Series II laser printer and 2 megabyte expansion board. Councilmember Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 r Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 RUBBISH SERVICE Council acknowledged a report from the City Administrator regarding rubbish service for new City Hall along with proposals from Knutson Rubbish Service, Inc., Mendota Heights Rubbish, B.F.I., and Roadway/Eagan Sanitation. After discussion, Councilmember Cummins moved that the contract for rubbish service for new City Hall be awarded to Knutson Rubbish Service, Inc., for $24.62 per month, in accordance with their proposal dated October 18, 1988. Councilmember Hartmann seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 JANITORIAL SERVICE Council accepted proposals for City Hall janitorial service from Lee's Janitorial Service, for $760.50 per month for 3 days per week and $1170 per month for 5 days per week, and from C-Tak for $880/ month for three days per week and $1,295 for 5 day per week service. Councilmember Witt moved to accept the . proposal of Lee's Janitorial Service for 3 - day per week service for new City Hall. Councilmember Hartmann seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 CASE NO. 88-43, Councilmember Cummins moved to approve a THOMEY VARIANCE five foot front yard setback variance for 2030 Dodd Road (Amoco Station) tb allow construction of a gas pump canopy fifteen feet from the front property line along with approval of the associated building permit. Councilmember Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 Page No. 2419 : November 1, 1988 CASE NO. 88-44, Mr. Fred Haas, from Marvin Anderson MARVIN ANDERSON Construction, was present to request approval of variances to allow entrance monuments for the Bridgeview Shores Development. Mr. Haas informed Council that the Planning Commission had recommended denial of their original plan, which has since been modified. Mr. Haas stated that the application before the Planning Commission was for an elaborate sign at Bridgeview Court, the main entrance to the Bridgeview Shores subdivision, and a pillar at every other intersection. After reading the recommendation that pillars at the intersections would segment the community, his firm decided to only request approval of the one 23 1/2 square foot sign supported by 5 foot tall posts to serve as an entrance monument at Bridgeview Court and Mendota Heights Road, without the originally proposed fences. He stated that the monument would be maintenance -proof masonry and concrete, and would not be lighted. He stated that this one structure at the main entrance to the Addition would identify the area and be something permanent. Mayor Mertensotto raised the Planning Commission concern that the monument's purpose is for advertising. Mr. Haas responded that the 8 by 16 foot monument at Victoria Highlands is masonry and is permanent and the Park Place monuments, 5 foot high posts with 5 by 2 signs, are also permanent. He stated that it is true that the monument is a marketing item but that this is also true of the Victoria Highlands and Park Place monuments. He informed Council that the sign would be at placed at a 45 degree angle to the intersection and will be set back far enough that there will be no visibility problem on the corner. He further stated that evergreens and shrubs will be planted around the monument and that the owner of the adjoining lot will maintain the shrubs. The structure will be off of Mendota Heights Road, in front of Page No. 2420 November 1, 1988 the berm and about a foot above the curb, 24 feet from the curb. Councilmember Cummins stated that he has no problem with the request, and that if one were to drive around the community you would see distinguishing signs in many of the neighborhoods. He felt that it is a well-designed sign. Councilmember Blesener agreed, pointing out that the precedent for such signage has been set all over the City. She expressed concern over the scale of the sign, and that the mass of it might cause visibility problems. Mr. Haas suggested that the site distance could be checked by the Public Works Director prior to installation so that there is no conflict of site distance. He informed Council that the monument will be on private property and there will be a covenant on that lot stipulating that the homeowners must maintain the monument. Councilmember Hartmann asked what would happen if the property owner does not take care of it. Mr. Haas responded that given the price of these homes there should be no problem: people will take care of their properties. He further stated that if that ever happened and it became a problem for the City, his firm will remove the monument. Mayor Mertensotto asked Mr. Haas if he will give the City a letter guaranteeing that his firm will covenant that the monument will be on private property, that the homeowners will take care of it, and that if it is not maintained and ever becomes a problem or a safety hazard his firm will remove it. Mr. Haas responded that he will provide the guarantee. He asked that the City Engineer check the proposed location of the monument to be sure it is placed for adequate sight distance. Attorney Tom Hart stated that the guarantee letter should stipulate that the City Page No. 2421 November 1, 1988 should be the party to decide whether the monument has become a safety hazard. Councilmember Cummins moved to approve the requested variance for the placement of a 23 1/2 square foot sign supported by two 5 foot tall posts, to be placed two feet from the property line at the corner of Bridgeview Court and Mendota Heights Road, subject to receipt of a letter of undertaking from Marvin Anderson Homes (to be approved by staff prior to permit issuance) stipulating that if the monument becomes a safety hazard as determined by Council or if it is not properly maintained by the property owner Marvin Anderson Homes will remove it within 30 days. Councilmember Blesener seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 CASE NO. 88-45 Mr. Chuck Partridge and his surveyor, Mr. PARTRIDGE Paul McGinley, were present to request approval of a 16 foot front yard setback variance and wetlands permit to allow construction of a home at 709 Wentworth. After brief discussion, Councilmember Witt moved approval of a 16 foot front yard setback variance, along with waiver of the wetlands permit public hearing requirement and approval of a five foot variance from the wetlands setback requirement, to allow construction of a home at 709 Wentworth Avenue in accordance with the site plan dated October 14, 1988. Councilmember Hartmann seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 CURLEY ADDITION TOT LOT Mr. Dave Ayers and Dr. Frank Pilney were present regarding play structures for the Curley Addition tot lot. Mr. Ayers requested Council to approve one of two playground structures. The first proposal would be for a very high quality redwood 6 by 6 construction at a cost of $6,700. The second proposal would be four by four treated pine construction at a cost of $4,055. Mr. Ayers stated that the second structure is not as high quality as the first and is not as attractive. He informed Council of the differences between Page No. 2422 November 1, 1988 the structures and stated that the second structure would be adequate for the area's needs, as it is typically constructed in a campground or daycare area but not in a public park. He recommended the $6,700 single -unit structure rather than the two- piece $4,000 structure. Mr. Ayers asked for approval of an additional $2,700 in funding from the City, and pointed out that the initial Park Commission recommendation was $14,000 for the project. Responding to a question from Councilmember Blesener, Mr. Ayers stated that the structure proposed is very similar to that in Rogers Lake Park. Mayor Mertensotto felt that redwood construction is definitely better than treated pine and pointed out that no quotes were available to Council at the time it established the $4,000 funding figure. Mr. Ayers stated that the quotation is from Rainbow and is a very good price. Adminis- trator Frazell stated that written quotations from the vendors are necessary. After additional discussion, Councilmember Blesener moved to amend the original budget for the Curley tot lot play structure from $4,000 to $6,700 to provide for the purchase of a Rainbow play structure as requested. Councilmember Cummins seconded the motion. Ayes: 4 Nays: 1 Witt Mr. Ayers was directed to get written quotations from the vendors who had given him proposals. PARK REVIEW Council discussed the size and composition COMMITTEE of the proposed Parks Review Committee. It was the consensus that it should be a twelve member committee consisting of two Councilmembers, 2 Planning Commission and 3 Park Commission members, to be nominated by the Commissions, and five at -large members. It was also the consensus that each Councilmember should nominate one at -large representative, with the appointment of the Committee to occur at the December 6th Council meeting. Page No. 2423 November 1, 1988 CANVASSING BOARD It was the consensus of Council that the Election Canvassing Board convene at 5:00 P.M. on November 9th at the Fire Station. Councilmember Cummins informed Council that he will be out of town and unable to attend. LEXINGTON/110 Councilmember Blesener moved to schedule a joint Council/Planning Commission workshop on November 29th at 7:00 P.M. to review planning and finance issues relating to the proposed development of the Curley/SOS properties. Councilmember Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 COUNCIL COMMENTS Council acknowledged a letter from William Mulvihill relative to sale of the Mulvihill family property to the City. Administrator Frazell was directed to respond. ADJOURN There being no further business to come before the Council, Councilmember Hartmann moved to adjourn the meeting to the November 9th Canvassing Board meeting. Councilmember Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 TIME OF ADJOURNMENT: 10:16 O'Clock P.M. Kathleen M. Swanson City Clerk ATTEST: Charles E.

Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 CORNICK WATERMAIN The Council acknowledged receipt of a tabulation of bids received for construction of the proposed watermain and storm sewer extension to serve the Cornick ; '� s Page No. 2424 November 15, 1988 residence at 1176 Sibley Memorial Highway and adjacent areas. Councilmember Blesener asked whether the CDBG funding for the project is in place. Public Works Director Danielson responded that the existing funding nearly covers the project and that he is working on getting additional funds from the City's 1989 CDBG allotment: Councilmember Blesener moved adoption of Resolution No. 88-90, "RESOLUTION ACCEPTING BIDS AND AWARDING CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF WATER AND STORM SEWER EXTENSION TO SERVE 1176 SIBLEY MEMORIAL HIGHWAY AND ADJACENT AREAS (IMPROVEMENT NO. 87, PROJECT NO. 6)," awarding the contract to F.M. Frattalone Excavating and Grading for its low bid of $53,666.00. Councilmember Hartmann seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 EAGAN DEVELOPMENT Mr. John Shardlow, from Dahlgren, Shardlow and Uban, a consultant for Northwest Airlines, was present to review plans for the proposed development of the Laukka Beck properties on T.H. 149 at I-494 in Eagan. Mr. Shardlow stated that Laukka Beck recently sold 113 acres of land to Northwest, making the total Northwest ownership 190 acres of land in this area. He informed Council that Laukka also sold a very large parcel to Wacovia Bank who in turn sold some of its parcel to Cray Research, which plans to build a 60,000 square foot structure southeast of I-494 at Dodd on Lone Oak Road. He stated that Northwest plans to construct two 250,000 square foot buildings on its site (in addition to its existing building). Mr. Shardlow informed Council that there is the need to accommodate nearly one million more square footage on the Laukka Beck site than what was originally authorized by the City of Eagan in the planned unit development for the property, and that the master plan for Northwest includes a major computer center, hotel and additional training facility. Page No. 2425 November 15, 1988 Mr. Shardlow showed Council slides depicting the site and the proposed development. He informed Council that the PUD was approved by Eagan in 1985 and a full environmental impact statement was completed at that time which anticipated that up to one million square feet of additional development could be put on the site but indicated there could be traffic problems with the site. He stated that the firm BRW has completed a traffic study which focused.on solving the traffic problems caused by the Northwest site and that Dakota County and the City of Eagan have hired Short -Elliot -Hendrickson to prepare a major traffic study throughout the County and also throughout Eagan. He reviewed the proposals from BRW which include adding turn lanes throughout the Lone Oak PUD area and acceleration lanes, and stated that I-494 is a key area of restriction. He stated that the key ingredients of the traffic plan that really are a catalyst to being able to accommodate the PUD amendment have an affect on Mendota Heights. These proposals include a high occupancy vehicle lane only, which could have access into Mendota Heights if desired, and a proposed direct on-ramp from T.H.49 over to I -35E, which would take a great deal of land from Visitation Convent. Mr. Shardlow informed Council that the City of Eagan is considering doing a very large development district and to amend its comprehensive plan. Mayor Mertensotto expressed his concern about the alternate solution as it impacts Mendota Heights, in particular the potential link that would take some of the Visitation property and also some residential properties. He asked how much land would be taken under such a proposal. Mr. Shardlow responded that he is in the process of fine tuning the details and does not have exact figures, but that the BRW plan indicates that a great deal of land would be taken. He also stated that the existing traffic volumes on Dodd are projected to quadruple and only 9% of that volume would be from this development. Responding to a question from Councilmember Blesener over why a full cloverleaf is not w Page No. 2426 November 15, 1988 proposed, Mr. Shardlow stated that such a solution would take more Visitation property. Councilmember Blesener stated that what is proposed would force everyone to make a left turn to get onto 35E, and she asked whether there is anything in the study that would discourage traffic from turning north on Dodd, some road design that would make it more undesirable to turn north. Mr. Shardlow responded that Eagan has required Northwest to agree to a very stringent traffic management plan including staggered work hours, van pooling, etc. Mayor Mertensotto asked whether consideration had been given to bringing some of the traffic back to T.H. 55 to get to I -35E, creating an access point to T.H. 55 for Northwest. He informed Mr. Shardlow that the Council would never want to entertain bringing the traffic from the Laukka-Beck site over to Mendota Heights Mr. Shardlow stated that the idea of an access point at T.H. 55 has not been brought up but that it is a good idea. Mayor Mertensotto informed Mr. Shardlow that the Council wants to be kept abreast of proposals while they are in the preliminary stage so that Council is not limited in its ability to comment. Regarding a question from Administrator Frazell on the timing of public hearings for the EIS or tax increment plan, Mr. Shardlow stated that it will be January or February before the specific tax increment district is formed and probably March before the PUD is approved. He indicated that he will report back to Council as soon as he can. STREET LIGHT REQUESTS Council acknowledged a letter from Centex Homes requesting approval to install NSP street lights in the Kensington plat and a request from Fire Chief Maczko for installation of an NSP street light at the north entrance to the fire station. ~� � « r e. Page No. 2427 November 15, 1988 Mr. Kevin Clark, from Centex, stated that the Kensington project is more dense than most developments in the City, there will be people waiting for buses, more traffic and people coming to use the park facilities, and it made sense to his firm to request street lights for security and safety purposes. Mayor Mertensotto pointed out that United Properties asked for lights for the industrial park that would beautify the area and expressed concern that Council should adopt a residential light standard to provide uniformity in the community before approving any street lights. Councilmember Blesener agreed and felt that Council should look at what types of lights are available and then come up with a policy. She stated that the Council needs to establish a light standard but not the overhead NSP light. Mayor Mertensotto responded that what might be lost in terms of aesthetics (NSP lights), might result in a gain in terms of the City not having to maintain the lights. Councilmember Cummins stated that he does not wish to have the city lose its semi - rural character and suggested that Council should approach the issue in a more organized way. Councilmember Blesener suggested that the requests be tabled until Council adopts a policy and further, that Council should set a higher priority on developing a policy. Administrator Frazell stated that staff can start to frame the issue and make a presentation on what types of lights are available. He asked whether it is Council's feeling that the costs for maintenance be paid by the residents and further that Council must decide what percentage of a neighborhood must petition for lights. Mayor Mertensotto suggested that residential lights installation be assessed. Councilmember Blesener pointed out that there should be a different light Page No. 2428 November 15, 1988 standard for arterial streets and neighborhoods. Action on the Centex and Fire Department requests was tabled for further review. AIRPORT ADEQUACY Metropolitan Council Representative Mary Martin gave the Council a presentation on the report and recommendations of the Metropolitan Council's Airport Adequacy Task Force regarding the future of the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport. Mayor Mertensotto stated that Ms. Martin has indicated that the far parallel runway was not recommended by the Task Force. He felt that if this is not intended to be recommended, it should have been so noted in the report. Councilmember Cummins, a member of the Task Force, stated that he believes the committee came up with a very practical and palatable solution. He stated that if traffic projections are not as high as the studies indicate it may not be enough to justify a new airport, but it may be enough that the airport will need to go beyond the north/south runway. He pointed out that the recommendation is just short of building a new airport. He stated that it would be 15 years before construction could begin on a new airport if the decision to build were made today. Mayor Mertensotto informed Ms. Martin that the Council has no basic objection to the approach being taken but does have many questions as to how improvements on the airport would affect conditions in Mendota Heights. AFFIRMATIVE ACTION Council acknowledged a proposed Affirmative Action Plan prepared by the City Administrator.

Mayor Mertensotto noted that there are several outstanding corrections to be made in the City Hall structure and that it is his preference that action on the payment requests be tabled. It was Council consensus that the payment consideration be tabled to the next meeting and that summary report as -to the condition of the structure be submitted to Council. COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilmember Blesener asked how much it would cost to remove the old fire station and what alternative uses there might be. Staff was directed to prepare a response, for the December 6th meeting if possible. Councilmember Blesener suggested that Council address the issue of whether a developer is in a position to petition for street lights for people who will ultimately live in the neighborhoods.

The following members were present: Mayor Mertensotto, Councilmembers Blesener, Cummins, Hartmann and Witt. Also present were Planning Commission members Anderson, Burke, Duggan, Dwyer, Krebsbach, McMonigal and Morson. City staff included City Administrator Kevin Frazell, Public Works Director Jim Danielson, Treasurer Larry Shaughnessy, and Planner Howard Dahlgren. Others present were developer John Duffy, Bob Fields and John Ogren from Croix oil, Tom Harley, attorney for Curley family, Tim Curley and the two owners of the SOS Convenience Station, Joan Kasa and Deede Schmidt. APPROVAL OF City Administrator Frazell reported on CITY HALL his recent discussions with the City Hall PAYMENTS contractors and architects concerning deficiencies of water runoff in some areas around the city hall. Council noted receipt of a letter from architect Bob Pierce recommending that the currently due payment to Joseph Construction be made. Frazell added that it seems there are sufficient funds left in retainage for both the city hall general and mechanical contractor payments to cover correction of any deficiencies. Motion by Councilmember Cummins, seconded by Councilmember Witt to approve the current amount due to Joseph Construction Company of $51,841.31, and to Doody Mechanical in the amount of $11,447.50. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 JOINT COUNCIL/ City Treasurer Larry Shaughnessy PLANNING DIS- presented and discussed his memorandum of CUSSION ON November 25, regarding estimated costs of PROPOSED acquisition, demolition and sell -back of DEVELOPMENT the land involved in the Lexington/110 OF LEXINGTON/ redevelopment. A copy of that memo is TH 110 AREA attached and made a part of these FINANCIAL minutes. ISSUES Croix Oil representative Robert Fields indicated that they had sent a purchase November 29, 1988 Page 2 offer to the SOS station of $140,000, plus having Croix cover the cost up to $40,000 for clean up of the site. Fields said the offer was contingent on soil tests of the property indicating that $40,000 would be sufficient for any contamination clean up. There was then general discussion about alternative ways that the City might invest tax increment dollars in promoting the development. Fields suggested that if Croix Oil could enter a friendly purchase with the SOS owners, it would greatly simplify the proceedings of acquiring and redeveloping the SOS site. He said that the City could then put its tax increment dollars into the project in alternative ways. Developer Duffy indicated that he would provide a pro forma on the project for City analysis. There was then discussion about dedication and construction of the required service road. It was noted that Mn/DOT normally builds the service roads, but looks to the developer or City for dedication of the right-of-way. City Planner Howard Dahlgren noted that this proposal would correct a significant safety problem. Public Works Director Jim Danielson mentioned that the County intends to upgrade the Lexington/110 intersection in 1991, and that turn lanes and an improved signal system would be part of the improvements. PLANNING ISSUES Developer Duffy presented the original proposal for site development, along with an amendment labeled as alternative 1. Copies of the plan are attached and made a part of these minutes. Duffy indicated that alternative 1 brings the shopping center closer to Lexington Avenue, and intrudes less on the residential neighborhood to the south. The shopping center itself is extended further to the west, as an alternative to an independent restaurant site. It was noted that the developer proposes to use the same brick in the SuperAmerica a� i s; November 29, 1988 Page 3 convenience store as has been used on the city hall at the northwest corner of the 110/Lexington intersection. A mansard roof sign band would be placed around the convenience store. The development proposes five parking spaces per 1,000 feet of development, versus the seven required in the Code. City Planner Dahlgren agreed that a requirement of five is fairly standard in the metropolitan area now and should be adequate for the development. For the benefit of the Planning Commission, City Administrator Frazell gave a brief overview of Council action and consideration on the proposed development to,date. He reported that originally the Council had been adamantly opposed to a convenience store with gas pumps station at the intersection. However, a subsequent market analysis by the Maxfield Research Group had indicated that such an anchor tenant is highly critical to the success of the nearby shopping center. Frazell said that this, coupled with the relatively attractive design which had been presented by Croix Oil, caused the Council to be willing to entertain the proposal further. Councilmember Blesener responded that she felt there was a real value to the community in having a nice shopping center in this area, but that it was important to set a good tone in that this is the first commercial area people see when they come into the City from the west. Duffy said that 66% of the center was pre -leased, and that for the most part it is for a different type of tenant than those at Mendota Plaza. This development would have smaller, faster -paced tenants, and higher lease rates. John Ogren of Croix Oil presented the model of the type of SuperAmerica station they would build. It included a canopy bay with 18 gasoline dispensing hoses, and nine dispensing units. November 29, 1988 Page 4 Planning Chair Jerry Morson asked the developer if he had planned any neighborhood meetings so that neighbors could become familiar with the development prior to formal City consideration. Duffy responded that he would be willing to hold such a meeting. There seemed to be a general concensus of the Council and Commission that they did not want to see a large gas pump canopy oriented toward the road and as a prominent feature of the site. Commissioner Sandra Krebsbach offered that she felt the scale was simply too big, and was out of character with the surrounding neighborhoods. Councilmember Buzz Cummins indicated that he did not feel this corner was really a "quiet" area of the City, and if the center was well designed it could be welcomed by nearby neighbors. He too felt that the canopy should be moved and scaled more to service the surrounding area. Councilmember Jann Blesener said that she felt a good convenience store is needed in this area, but was disturbed by the scale and scope of the proposed development. John Ogren said that he felt people want to go to a station that looks like it is easy to get in and out of, and that is the reason for proposing 18 pumps. City Planner Howard Dahlgren then made a few brief comments on the proposal. First, he indicated that it was important that city officials see this as an opportunity to clean up an area that is a real eye sore for the community. He drew attention to the proposed commercial zoning line. In the case of a B-3 district, it is required that there be a 75 foot setback from any abutting residential district. Since it will be difficult to respect that setback requirement in this area, he said that much care must be taken for the transition from the commercial to the residential district. November 29, 1988 Page 5 Dahlgren said that Mendota Plaza had been designed for larger shops, and that the current proposal was of a more shallow depth and would attract a different type of shop and market. As an alternative, Dahlgren suggested bending the shopping center somewhat to the south as it approaches Lexington Avenue. With regard to the filling station pumps, he reported on a Mobil station that his company had designed at Normandale and 84th Street in Bloomington, in which the pumps were to the rear of the street. He added that the layout had worked well, and it was a very successful service station. It was agreed that the owners of Curley's and the SOS could meet with City Treasurer Larry Shaughnessy to discuss more specifically the acquisition costs for the development. ADJOURN There being no further discussion, Councilmember Witt moved that the meeting be adjourned. Councilmember Hartmann seconded the motion. Ayes: 5 Nays: 0 TIME OF ADJOURNMENT: 9:40 P.M. Kevin D.

The purpose of this memo is to inform Council of that recommendation and to also ask for Council authorization for stop signs in the Bridgeview Shores Addition. RECOMMENDATION Chief Delmont recommends that a stop sign be installed on Stratford Road at its intersection with Walsh Lane. Public Works Director Danielson has informed me that signs have not yet been authorized in the Bridgeview Shores Addition and recommends that signs be placed on Bridgeview Court, Mendota Heights Circle and Pond Haven Lane at their intersections with Mendota Heights Road.

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS Charles E. Mertensotto Mayor ATTEST: Kathleen M. Swanson City Clerk CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO DECEMBER 8, 1988 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Kevin D. F; ity Administrator SUBJECT: Fur her Time Extension Addendum to Kensington PUD Developer's Agreement On December 21, 1987, the City Council approved a developer's agreement for the Kensington planned unit development project in southeast Mendota Heights. The approved plan was referred to as "Plan B", and contemplated the construction of 500 multi -family residential units. The agreement gave the City the option of purchasing 35 acres of community park property for a specified sum of $750,000, contingent on passage of a bond referendum. As we all know, the May 3, 1988 referendum subsequently failed at the polls. The developers agreement also reserved to the City the unilateral right to cancel the approval of Plan B, upon passage of a resolution expressing an intent to amend the comprehensive plan and process planning applications to consider the alternative Plan A. Plan A is for construction of 540 multi -family units, and includes the dedication of a 10 acre neighborhood park. The original developers agreement indicated that such Council action had to take place by August 31, 1988. Subsequent to the defeat of the bond referendum, the developers offered to help the City meet its park objectives by coming up with yet a third development plan which would entail the dedication of more park acreage as a part of the planned unit development. The City Council indicated its interest and willingness to consider such an alternative, and the original developers agreement was amended to extend until December 31, 1988, the time for the Council to act on amending its comprehensive plan and a PUD approval. However, the developers did not actively pursue their plans during the Fall months. Staff has recently met with the developers, Centex Homes, and they have indicated their remaining interest in pursuing the third alternative. In fact, current plans are that they will file their application materials in time for consideration by the Planning Commission at its January 24 meeting. This will also allow time for the Citizens Parks Review Committee to consider this alternative, and how it might fit into an overall park development plan for the community. In order to "buy time" an additional extension agreement to the original developers agreement is necessary. Attached is a proposed extension agreement, which continues until June 30, 1989, the time frame 1n which the Council may act to rescind approval of Plan B and substitute an alternative. Centex President Tom Boyce has indicated that the June 30 time line is acceptable to him. ACTION REQUIRED Motion to approve the extension agreement with Centex Homes extending until June 30, 1989 the time frame in which the City Council has to amend the original December 22, 1987 developers agreement for the Kensington project. KDF:madlr attachment EXTENSION AGREEMENT RECITALS: WHEREAS, the City of Mendota Heights (the "City") and Centex Real Estate Corporation ("Developer") entered into a certain "Developer's Agreement for a Planned Unit Development Concept of Kensington Development" dated December 22, 1987 (the "Developer's,Agreement"); and WHEREAS, pursuant to paragraph 1 of the Developer's Agreement, the City granted preliminary sketch plan approval for "Sketch Plan B," as that term is defined in the Developer's Agreement; and WHEREAS, pursuant to paragraph 9 of the Developer's Agreement, preliminary sketch plan approval of Sketch Plan B would lapse and be of no further force and effect whatsoever if, on or prior -to August 31, 1988, the City took certain steps, including resolution to amend the City's Comprehensive Plan and granting preliminary sketch plan approval for "Sketch Plan A," as that term is defined in the Developer's Agreement; and WHEREAS, the City and the Developer, in an Extension Agreement dated August 2, 1988, extended the time for action by the City pursuant to paragraph 9 until Deceber 31, 1988; and WHEREAS, the,Developer remains interested in presenting to the City a new alternative sketch plan, distinct from both Sketch Plan B and Sketch Plan A; and WHEREAS, the City is willing to entertain and consider the new sketch plan, conditioned upon extension of the December 31, 1988 deadline set forth in the Extension Agreement of August 2, 1988. NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and further in consideration of the Recitals, which are hereby made a part hereof, it is hereby agreed as follows: 1. Paragraph 9 of the Developer's Agreement shall be amended to extend the time for action by the City pursuant to said paragraph from August 31, 1988 until June 30, 1989. 2. Except as otherwise expressly amended hereby, the Developer's Agreement shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its original terms.

Frazell Administrator City of Mendota Heights 750 South Plaza Drive Mendota Heights, Minnesota 55120 Dear Mr. Frazell: We are pleased to announce that the Mississippi National River and Recreation Area was established on November 18. With this legislation, the National Park Service is called upon to provide certain administrative and management functions. This new park lies within the National Park Service's Midwest Region, one of 10 such Regional Offices within the Agency. Our Office covers 10 -midwestern States, including Minnesota, and will have the responsibility to carryout the duties outlined in the enabling legislation. Congress finds that the Mississippi Corridor within the St. Paul -Minneapolis Metropolitan Area represents a nationally significant historical, recreational, scenic, cultural, natural, economic, and scientific resource and that it has a national interest in the preservation, protection, and enhancement of•these resources for the benefit of the people of the United States. Congress also finds that the preservation, enhancement, enjoyment, and utilization of these resources can be accomplished by a cooperative Federal, State, and local compre- hensive planning and management effort. w The overall purpose of the legislation is to protect, preserve, and enhance the significant values of the waters and lands of the Mississippi River Corridor within the St. Paul -Minneapolis Metropolitan Area by encouraging coordination of all Governmental programs and establishing a management framework to assist the E State of Minnesota and its local units of government in the development and implementation of an integrated resource management program. A part of the National Park Service's role will be to assure that the compre- hensive plan for land and water use measures in the area will be developed by a 22 -member commission. It may be several months before the commission will be established. However, the National Park Service will have a physical presence in the area early in the calendar year, and we look forward to working with all affected units of Govern- ment, along with commercial and private interests, in the development of this new addition to the National Park Service. N As an interim measure, Mr. Al Hutchings of this Office has been designated as the National Park Service's keyperson for this effort. Please feel free to contact Al at 402-221-4855, or me at 402-221-3431 if you wish to discuss any issues related to the newly established recreation area. 5niy, Don H. stleberry Regional Director Continental Cablevision December 2, 1988 of Northern Dakota County, Inc. Kevin Frazell Mendota Heights City Administrator 750 So. Plaza Dr. Mendota Heights, MN 55118 Dear Mr. Frazell: The purpose of this letter is to inform you of our pending rate adjustment for our Northern Dakota County cable television subscribers. On January 1, 1989, we will adjust our Television Plus rates upward by $2.55 per month. our costs have increased over the last twelve months and a rate adjustment is necessary to keep pace with expenses. For example, our programming costs alone will increase by more than 30%. Additionally, the Northern Dakota County market continues to be a very difficult market to penetrate, both in basic and premium service penetration. Nonetheless, to maintain a state of the art cable system we still must incur substantial expenses. Customer service excellence cannot be attained cheaply. However, with the Minnesota state average for basic monthly service quickly approaching $16.95, our new monthly rate of $15.50 remains very competitive. Despite market conditions that constantly bring pressure to adjust rates even higher, we've managed to provide an excellent product at a reasonable price. A commitment we've made to this area and have been able to keep. We've also provided other significant contributions to Northern Dakota County. Our presence has created numerous positive benefits to the seven cities we serve. The following more clearly illustrates the kind of positive local impact we've been able to make in 1988 alone: 1988 Projected NDC Payroll (including payroll taxes) $350,000 Franchise Fees 175,000 Public Access Corporation 100,000 Local Advertising 210,000 Capital Purchases 475,000 60 East Marie Avenue • West St. Paul, Minnesota 55118 • Telephone (612) 457-1540 W Continental will also spend another $950,000 in other operating expenses, many of those dollars benefitting local businesses. In addition, Continental is an active member of the Northern Dakota County and Inver Grove Heights/South St. Paul chambers of Commerce. And our local programming efforts have brought national recognition to.this area. our combined local programming efforts in both Northern Dakota County and St. Paul have received five nominations for national programming awards for programs that have featured unique aspects of our community. In closing, we remain optimistic that we will be able to maintain high quality service as long as rates keep pace with expenses. We look forward to continuing to build on our positive relationships with our subscribers, community organizations and businesses, and government and community leaders in Northern Dakota County.

One of these provisions affected purchasers of the Bonds in that it completely disallowed any interest expense on money which was treated as borrowed to purchase the Bonds. However, the Act contained a provision which allowed the City to designate the Bonds as "qualified tax exempt obligations" (commonly referred to as "bank qualified bonds"). This designation is important because it allows bondholders to deduct 80% of their interest expense on any money treated as borrowed -for the bonds. If the designation of the Bonds as "qualified tax exempt obligations" is not effectively made, then no part of that interest expense is deductible. ble.

If any bondholder decides to sell the Bonds it owns at some future time and the City has not adopted this resolution, the market value of -the Bonds may be less and the bondholder might attempt to bring an action against the City because of the reduction in value of its Bonds. Please see that the enclosed resolution is adopted at the earliest possible date and, in any event if at all possible, no later than December 31, 1988. We suggest that you retain a copy of this resolution in your files in case any Bondholder requests information regarding this matter. If you have any questions, please give me a call. ery truly yours, Mary M `Dyrr`se -h Enc. cc: The Shaughnessy Company 554S Extract of Minutes of a Meeting of the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights, Minnesota Pursuant to due call and notice hereof, a meeting of the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights, Minnesota, was duly held at the City Hall, in said City on , the day of , 198_, at _ _ P.M.

The plaque will be provided as a part of the city hall contract. Council needs to ratify what will be on the plague so that it can be ordered. The listing of the city officials; architect and contractors is consistent with the dedication --plaques on the public works garage and the fire station. It takes approximately six weeks to get the plaque after ordering. Therefore, it unfortunately will not be available by the time of our January 15 open house. However, that would not seem to me to be a critical enough factor to postpone the open house. ACTION REQUIRED: For Council to is acceptable, and deems appropriate.

Pebble texture background To: From: Re: MEMO CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS December 13, 1988 Mayor and City Council Kevin Fra k2-ty Administrator Purch se of Equipment for Exercise Room As Council is aware, the new City Hall includes a small exercise room where firefighters, police officers, and other city employees can work out and stay "in shape." At the time of_preparing the 1989 budget, a request was made for $2,500 of city funds to equip the room. Because of the many expenses associated with moving to the new City Hall, I declined to include that request in the budget the I recommended to the Council. However, I did indicate to the employees that if they would demonstrate a real interest and financial commitment to the exercise facilities, that I did think it would be appropriate to request some City participation. Interested fire fighters and police officers, assisted by Chief Dennis Delmont, have now formed a users committee and drawn up polices for use of the room. Sessions have been held on proper use of the equipment, and more training is planned for the future. The firefighters and police officers have each contributed $1,625 dollars toward initial furnishing of the room, and have purchased the following equipment: 8 Station Universal Gym Rowing Machine Weight Bend Exercise Bike Olympic Weights To provide a more complete facility, the users committee is now requesting that the Council provide up to another $1,625 toward the cost of purchasing additional equipment. Specific needs include: Dumbells, Weights, and Collars Mirrors Instructional and Safety Posters Mats for Equipment Scale Exercise Mats Weight Racks Miscellaneous Items Stools Given this solid demonstration of commitment to the exercise program, I am recommending the Council authorize the requested funds. Because employees from the Administration and Engineering departments also plan to use the equipment, I would further recommend that the funds be taken half each from the contingency line items of those two departments. Chief Delmont and User Committee Co -Chairs Jim Kilberg and Mario Reyes will be present to.answer any questions Council may have about the exercise room. ACTION REQUIRED If Council concurs with my recommendation, it should pass zC' motion authorizing the expenditure of up to $1,625 for purchase of exercise equipment. CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO DECEMBER 13, 1988 TO: -Mayor, City Council, and Crator FROM: Paul R. Berg, Code Enforcement Officer SUBJECT: Sign permit application 1150 Hwy 110, Centre Pointe Medical Clinic Discussion: I have received a sign permit application, site plan, and proposed sign graphic from Rick Fox at Cross Town Sign for the Centre Pointe Medical Clinic. The property is zoned B-1 which requires a 30' front yard setback and a 20' side yard setback. The proposed sign iS located at the North East corner of the medical clinic property. The proposed setback (front yard) to the north property line is shown as 301. The proposed setback (side yard) to its east property line is shown to be 381. Both proposed setbacks meet or exceed the city's minimum setbacks for B-1 zoning. The proposed sign is a free standing ground type sign which contains 49 square feet of sign area (7' X 71). The sign ordinance allows a maximum of a 50 square ft. sign to be erected in a B-1 zone. Recommendation: The proposed setbacks and sign square footage meet the zoning ordinance standards therefore, staff would recommend approval of the sign as proposed. Action Required: If council wishes to implement the staff recommendation to approve the sign permit it should pass a motion of approval. PRB:np IV) st • t lit I'A Its -lx IN ............. NIX.

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO TO: Mayor, City Council, FROM: Klayton Eckles Civil Engineer SUBJECT: Report on MSA Job No. 8801 December 15, 1988 Clt trator five year plan. DISCUSSION OF MSA FIVE YEAR PLAN Every three years Staff completes a five year plan for Municipal State Aid (MSA) street construction. Attached is a copy of Staff's proposed five year plan. After the Mendota Heights Road/ Huber Drive extension is completed the next priority is the upgrade of Wagon Wheel Trail. Homeowners along Wagon Wheel have petitioned the City for an upgrade of the street, so this should be a high priority. An upgrade is justified given the frequent useage of the street. Further down the priority list is the widening of Mendota Heights Road from F.A.I. 35E to Dodd Rd. in 1991, which is a project that the City promised the State would be done. In 1991 the upgrade of the Lexington Avenue and T.H. 110 intersection is listed. This is a project that would be done jointly with the County. Sometime in the future Victoria Road will need to be improved; by 1993 the MSA fund would have enough money to complete it. In practice the only important choice is what takes place the first year or so; anything after the first year is only an estimate and can be altered easily. Wagon Wheel is the only new construction in the first year, so Council should decide if this is a high priority. If it is a high priority, a feasibility report would be in order. Staff recommends Council approve the attached MSA Five Year Plan as presented. Also Staff recommends Council direct Staff to complete a feasibility report on an upgrade of Wagon Wheel Trail to MSA standards. ACTION REQUIRED If Council desires to implement the Staff recommendation they should pass a motion approving the MSA Five Year Plan, and pass resolution 88-_, RESOLUTION ORDERING PREPARATION OF A FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR UPGRADING OF WAGON WHEEL TRAIL TO MUNICIPAL STATE AID STANDARDS.

Adopted by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights this 20th day of December, 1988. ATTEST: Kathleen M. Swanson City Clerk 1 CITY COUNCIL CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS By Charles E. Mertensotto, Mayor CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO December 14, 1988 TO: Mayor, City Council and City�d ator FROM: Klayton H. Eckles, Civil Engineer SUBJECT: Purchase of Curbside Recycling Containers Job No. 8818 DISCUSSION• As part of our curbside recycling program it will be necessary to ensure that all residents have containers available for storing recyclables and transporting them to the curbside. In order to maintain continuity throughout the City and get the containers to the residents at no cost (to encourage recycling), it is prudent that the City provide the containers free of charge. This can be accomplished by using the County grant money that is available for just such an endeavor. In fact this is one of the County's recommended uses for the grant money. Hennepin County recently made a large purchase of containers from Rehrig Pacific Company out of Illinois; these containers meet the same specifications that we have been designing for our containers. Rehrig has agreed to give us the same price on a urchase of as many containers as we want. The quoted price of p$5.25 per container, including a permanent printed logo and delivery, is much lower than we could hope to get if we bid on our own. The containers could be delivered to us sometime in February or later, and we have a choice of colors (dark green, light green, blue, red, yellow, and white or black). Apparently green and blue are very popular. In order to meet Rehrig's production time schedule, we must tell them what color, and how many we desire before Christmas. In order to get our recycling program in full swing, an order of 1000 containers would be a good start. Any more could lead to some storage problems. Staff will have a container on hand at the meeting to show how the "Single Container" system works. RECOMMENDATION• Staff recommends Council approval of a purchase order for the purchase of 1000 recycling containers from Rehrig Pacific Company at a price of $5.25 per container. ACTION REQUIRED: If Council concurs with the staff recommendation, they should pass a motion authorizing staff to proceed and approve a purchase order for 1000 containers from Rehrig Pacific Company at the price of $5.25 per container. CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO DECEMBER 9, 1988 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: KevCity Administrator SUBJECT: Appointment of Citizen's Park Committee At the meeting.of December 6, Council had some preliminary discussion about the citizen's parks committee, but declined to make appointments until checking further with potential candidates. The item is being rescheduled for tonights agenda, so that Council can make those appointments and select a chair. As a reminder, the Planning Commission representatives will be Sandra Krebsbach and Michael Dwyer, while the Parks Commission representatives will be Carol Damberg, Bev Lachenmayer, and John Huber. ACTION REQUIRED: 1. Appointment of two Council members to the committee. 2. Appointment of five at -large citizens to the committee. 3. Selection and appointment of a chair person. KDF:madlr MEMO CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS December 9, 1989 To: Mayor and City Council From: Kevin F Administrator Re: Policy of Community Use of City Hall Attached is a draft a policy on community use of the rooms in City Hall. The policy is rather straight forward, and speaks for itself. A key feature in the policy is that a Mendota Heights resident must arrange and sign for use of a room. That person is responsible for knowing how to use the building, seeing that it gets locked up, etc. This is as an alternative to having someone on site, i.e. a custodian, which would be difficult and expensive for a small organization like ours. ACTION REQUIRED Council should review the attached proposal, making whatever changes it deems appropriate, then pass a motion adopting the policy. MEMO CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS December 8, 1988 To: Mayor and City Council From: Kevin Fr ty Administrator _-,,��qi Re: 1989 Salaries and Benefits for Non -Organized Employees INTRODUCTION Attached are two resolutions necessary to implement 1989 cost -of -living pay and benefit increases for employees not covered by a labor contract. The purpose of this memo is to briefly describe the contents of those resolutions. PAYAIATTRIX The first attached resolution adopts an amended pay matrix for 1989, increasing all figures by 4%. I am recommending a 4% adjustment, based on trends in the Consumer Price Index, running in the 4 - 5 % range, and on salary trends in other metropolitan area suburbs for clerical, professional, and managerial groups. On August 1st, 1987, Council adopted a revised pay matrix to implement the requirements of the comparable worth law, and will recall that we are phasing in comparable worth adjustments over a three-step process. The final step in that process will come this August 1, 1989, when all non -organized employees will be eligible to be at Step E on the salary matrix. Action to make that final adjustment will be recommended to Council next summer. The current action before Council is to merely adjust the pay matrix in recognition of cost -of -living. The position of Administrative Assistant is inserted into the resolution in Group XXIV, and our appointee will begin work on January 4th at the Step A rate of $28,169. This is as approved by Council at the December 6th meeting. INDIVIDUAL SALARY ADJUSTMENTS The second attached resolution sets forth a schedule of individual 1989 salaries for employees not covered by a labor contract. All adjustments, except for that of City Administrator, are 4% over what the employee is earning for 1987. The salary for City Administrator is as discussed with Council on December 6th. Employees whose salaries don't fit exact steps on the matrix as discussed above are in a temporary "in between" status on the way to full implementation of comparable worth in August. The two part-time positions of Fire Chief and Assistant Fire Chief are extended 15% and 11% increases respectively, based on the number of hours they are putting in on the job and as provided for in the adopted budget. The hourly schedule for firefighters is increased $ .25 for each class, which is approximately 4%. INSURANCE CONTRIBUTION The resolution increases the City's maximum contribution for each employee's insurance program by $20, to $205 per month. MedCenters Health Plan, the program used by most employees, is increasing their monthly rate from to $224.90 in 1988 to $265.00 in 1989. Therefore, even with a City contribution increase of $20 per month, employees will still see an increase of approximately $20.00 in their own monthly deduction for insurance. $205 is the amount already set in the settled police and public works contracts for 1989. BUDGET IMPACT The cost of the salary increases, compounded by variable fringe benefits (i.e. FICA, PERA, etc.) is approximately $25,900. The cost of the insurance increase is $4,800. Adequate funds are appropriated in the adopted 1989 budget to cover these increases. ACTION REQUIRED If Council concurs with the 1989 salary and benefits changes as outlined and recommended above, it should pass a motion adopting each of the two attached resolutions. CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 88 - RESOLUTION AMENDING PAY CLASSIFICATION SCHEDULE FOR NON -ORGANIZED EMPLOYEES TO REFLECT A 4% ANNUAL ADJUSTMENT FOR 1989 WHEREAS, by Resolution No. 87-67, the City Council has adopted a grade -and -step pay system for non -organized -city employees that meets the requirements of MSA 471.991, the Pay Equity Act; and WHEREAS, it is necessary to annually review the pay matrix that is a part of that system for adjustment in recognition of increases in cost of living; and WHEREAS, based on salary trends in the metropolitan area suburbs, and budgeted funds available, a 4% adjustment in the matrix for 1989 is reasonable. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights that the grade and Step Pay Matrix attached hereto as Appendix A, is hereby adopted as Appendix A of Resolution No. 87-67, adopted by the City Council on July 7th, 1987.

Swanson City Clerk CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO a DECEMBER 13, 1988 r TO: Mayor, City Council and Cit d�is rator FROM: Larry Shaughnessy, Treasurer SUBJECT: Lexington/110 Redevelopment HISTORY• Based on proposals to redevelop the southeast corner of Lexington and TH 110, it appears that the next step in the financial process would be to obtain appraisals for the parcels which might be purchased by the City. We have obtained quotes from Davis and Lagerman whom we have used previously, and Penfield Associates who have been used extensively by the Dakota County HRA. If the purchase was to go to condemnation,. it would be necessary to have the appraisals reviewed. The HRA has suggested that Don Hennessey is very good at this work, as well as being fast and reasonable. Attached are quotation letters from Blake Davis and Bill Schwab detailing the estimated cost for the appraisals. By Tuesday evening, we will know more about the progress of discussion between Croix Oil and SOS for a friendly purchase. The outcome of those discussions might amend staff recommendations at the Council meeting. ACTION REQUIRED: If Council wishes to proceed, select an appraiser and order the work to be done.

I am interested in doing that appraisal work and by means of this letter I am quoting my fee to do so. In estimating the fee to appraise these properties, I have assumed that• no inventory, personal property, or equipment used in the businesses would be included in my valuations. I have further assumed that no business value would be included. For the fees quoted here my valuation would include land and buildings only. To appraise the convenience store property on the corner my fee would be $1,200. In addition, to appraise the furniture library next to it the fee would be $700, a total for the two of them of $1,900. I could complete the appraisals within 30 days of my receipt from you of a request to appraise them. The final product will be two copies each of fully documented narrative appraisal reports summarizing in detail my approaches to value and my final conclusion of value. If there is additional information which you require with regard to this matter, please feel free to get in touch with me at any time. Meanwhile thank you again for the opportunity to present this proposal to you. Yours very truly, Blake S.

Danielson Public Works Director SUBJECT: Community Development Block Grant for 1989 DISCUSSION: The City of Mendota Heights is again eligible to request a portion of Dakota Countyts Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for 1989• CDBG is a federal program designed to meet the needs of low and moderate income residents. In the past Mendota Heights' CDBG money has been gen- erally used to assist with loans and deferred loans for rehabilitation of single family homes together with assisting such special projects as, as- sessment abatements on the Northend Street Project and the Cornick watermain extension along Trunk Highway 13• The Cornick watermain project will totally deplete the City's funds in 1988. Because there is no money re- maining for housing rehabilitation, staff feels that the funds available for 1989 (approximately $37,000) should be used to restore that program. RECOMMENDATION• Staff recommends utilizing the Cityts available CDBG funds to establish a housing rehabilitation loan deferral program (see attached application). ACTION REQUIRED: If Council desires to implement the staff recommendation they need to pass a motion adopting Resolution No. 88-_, RESOLUTION APPROVING THE APPLICATION OF THE CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 1989 DAKOTA COUNTY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT FUNDING.

Danielson Public Works Director SUBJECT: Snowplowing INTRODUCTION: One of our "target" issues, and one that has recently provoked Council discussions, is snowplowing. Staff was to review our current snowplowing procedures to determine any areas of potential improvement, and particularly to consider how the use of a private contractor might assist City crews in completing removal more quickly.

DISCUSSION: The City Administrator and I recently met with Public Works staff to get their input on the subject and below is a list of some of their thoughts: 1. In general Public Works staff feel that they are doing a good job of plowing. I might add that I feel they are doing a commendable job removing the snow considering the mileage per route. There are now three main line plow routes with approximately 20 miles of street per route. This mileage is at or above what the other neighboring City's are doing per route. There are also two cul- de-sac routes with about 90 cul-de-sacs. The Public Works staff have always removed the snow as soon as any of the other neigh- boring cities and they feel that they will be able to continue to meet that goal this year even with the added mileage. 2. In order to improve their efficiency the Public Works staff has suggested implementation of the following: a. Public Works Superintendent Tom Olund will also plow snow (he does now as a fill in or replacement when someone is missing). b. Depending on the weather forecast, the Superintendent will consider beginning plowing earlier than it has in the past, 1:00 or 2:00 A.M. instead of 3:00 or 4:00 A.M. q.y., r. ­ 1'Y' , c. The crews will begin plowing before the snowfall ends (in the past they have always waited until the snow stopped falling). However this will mean that a second pass may be required of the earlier plowed streets. 3. Council budgeted in 1989 for a private contractor to help with the plowing on significant snowfalls (one where people are unable to get out before the streets are plowed). I have again contacted Pine Bend Paving to help us with those snowfalls. Pine Bend is only available after 8:00 A.M., and will be called out at the discretion of the Public Works Superintendent. The Contractor will concentrate on plowing neighborhood streets to assist getting residents mobile as soon -as possible. 4. We have budgeted f or an additional maintenance worker to be hired this summer. That person will be available for the 189/190 snow- fall season. We plan to use that person to either start another cul-de-sac route or replace the motor grader with a truck route. We are presently plowing the center of the City with a motor grader which only needs one person to operate, whereas a truck needs two people. Trucks can plow faster than motor graders and can sand. ACTION REQUIRED: Review the -above information on snowplowing, and indicate whether Council wishes staff to proceed with their plan. CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS MEMO December 12, 1988 T0: Mayor, City Council and Cit m�Ir ator FROM: James E. Danielson Public Works Director SUBJECT: St. Paul Water Utility Meter Program DISCUSSION: St. Paul Water Utility is installing remote water meter registers throughout their system and needs City Council approval before they can proceed in Mendota Heights (see attached diagram). Right now St. Paul's meter readers have to enter every home to read the meters and with this new system they will simply have to plug a device into a receptacle located on the outside of the home. St. Paul Water Utility's experience with this system in St. Paul has been fantastic the meter readers have gone from 70 reads per day to over 400 per day. There will be no direct cost to the homeowners for this system as all the costs are funded through water rate revenues. However should Mendota Heights decide to revert to a wholesale water agreement the City will have to pay the Water Utility for the system at an amount amortized over 30 years. The meters are scheduled to be installed in Mendota Heights sometime between August_7th and October 28, 1989• They have also agreed to set up a display at the Mendota Heights City offices open house on January 15, 1989 to explain the system to anyone interested. RECOMMENDATION: Staff feels that this new system of meter reading is excellent and recommends that the City Council approve the agreement and allow St. Paul Water Utility,to proceed. ACTION REQUIRED: If Council desires to implement the staff recommendation they should pass a motion authorizing the Mayor and Administrator to sign the agreement. t — Cable iR Ground "W i ndoww -TAIL 22 gauge, 4 !'(I T— conductor, ' I solid strand, 14 -'JiT plastic coated, thermostat type 4 0'",1, uItlPt Ti tVr-,Ill.

A part of the process is preparation of an EIS for the project. The F.A.A. has issued an Environmental Assessment Summary in preparation of the full EIS study. They have invited comments on the procedure for the EIS and asked that the comments be submitted by January 6. Kevin, Bernie Friel, and I have reviewed the summary and feel that little attention has been given to the affects of the extension toward the northeast. The attached letter refers to the areas we feel should be considered. If you have other thoughts, please feel free to add them.

Benson: I want to thank you on behalf of the City of Mendota Heights for the opportunity to respond to the elements of the 'proposed EIS Statement for the Runway 4/22 extension at ..Twin Cities International Airport. From the Environmental;Assessment Summary which you have sent us, we find that several elements of direct and serious concern to the City of Mendota Heights have been omitted from:,. 4 -he%, _Q11YnTA:%_JbelieveWa hliaua +-hn+-',fhe following elements should --receive complete review in the EIS which is to be prepared. These items all affect the City's continuing attention to ",compatible land use in the City and our efforts to limit the effects of the airport traffic and noise on our residents. No mention has been made of the increased capacity o; level at the airport resulting from the runway extension. The noise level and noise contours relating to departures on runway 4 and arrivals on runway 22, have not been developed. The use of these procedures results in intense and objectionable noise levels to an,entirely new group of residents in the City and actsito make a sham of City zoning efforts to be a comp4tible'neighbor to the airport. There is no statement as to the development of flight tracts to the'northeast of the airport for., either departures or'arrivals. The absence of these tracts make it impossible to relate operations t0 the noise exposure s which will be received in these areas of the city. The current 180 day test'use of runway 22/4.has served !'to show noise exposures above acceptable levels in an area,of­ the City which has not been exposed in the past. These ' operations should be stoppedpas soon as the test period is. over .',and all departures, except for strict weather-related operations, ceased. 1101 Victoria Curve -Mendota Heights, A&N - 55118 452.1850 tr A Mr. Franklin D. Benson, Manager December 21, 1988 y Page Two<: 3 It appears that the proposed runway extension will - result in increased use of runway 29R/I1L. Operations on this runway have a serious detrimental effect on our City residents. The failure to direct traffic in the area of the City, south of a 105 degree heading, which has been zoned to accept aircraft traffic, is inexcusable and should be reflected in the EIS. ;t Very truly yours, ` % 19 3 4 R 0 /./ � � Air44 MSP Runway 4�12 Environmental A t Summary . .

As such, MAC is responsible forj..insuring accessto the domestic and international air transportation systems I `t_ for the Twin Cities area. At the same time, MAC is committe4j�,to minimizing any adverse impacts relating to the operation of its facilities. The proposed extension of'Runway.4-22 aiVMSP is consistent with these dual responsibilities. This environmental assessment (EA) isr7the first step,;in the Federal environmental process to evaluate a 2,750' extension of Runway 4-22 to the southwest consistent with the master plan for MSP. The EA has been prepared in accordance with thee' requirements of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)"'Order 5050.4A, Guidelines for Environmental,,Analysis. '5 1.2 Runways/taxiwdys The proposed project, as shown on Figure 1, involves the extension of the southwest end of Runway 4-22 by 2,750'. The landing thresholds for both ends would be displaced 2,750' from the ends of pavement to maintain or improve landing profiles over adjacent communities. These displacements are only possible with the extension (See Figure 2). Taxiway and lighting system changes related to the extension and threshold displacements are also part of the proposed project. is 1.3 Flight track modifications Four departure tracks from Runway 22 will be established as part of the project. They will be tracks turning to headings of 350 and 250 degrees, one to a southerly heading along Cedar Avenue and one southeasterly up to 165 degrees. (Figure 3) 2 Need & Justification of Proposed Project 2.1 Noise Impact Improvement 2.1.1 Technique The proposed project will improve the aircraft operations at MSP by allowing Preferential Runway System (PRS). The noise impact pattern from increased use!*.of the PRS was devised to assign priorities to aircraft routings so as�to disperse noise where possible and to route operations over.`areas that arelthe least sensitive to noise. However, the ability to use thefPRS has ;f slii MSP Runway 4 -22, Environmental AssessmenC ' �'Summary declined in recent years. As activity levels grow at MSP, the use of the PRS will continue to decreasiand aircraft operations (and noise) will be increasingly channeled along the northwest/southeast corridor of theparallelrunways (11L -29R and 11R -29L). Runway 4-22', as the only alternative,to the.4 northwest/southeast traffic flow, is the key to' increased utilization of the PRS. The extension to Runway 4-22 will enhance the ability of the PRS to be used even at increased activity levels. !W' 2.1.2 Historical perspective 4h The importance of the PRS in the noiselabatement program at MSP has been underscored by many groups anUstudies which deal with the issue. Common to each is the recommendation to enhance the effectiveness of the PRS. Metropolitan Aircraft Sound Abatement Council (MASAC) Environmental Advisory Team/1977 Airport Master Plan Noise Implementation Working Group'' -) d P Noise Budget Working Group 2.2 Operational Improvement 2.2.1 Technique The extension of Runway 4-22 increases the operational effectiveness of the PRS from the current level of 60.,' operations/hour to a level of 70-80 operations/hour. This increase will allow the PRS to be used approximately nine hours per day between the busy hours of 6:00AM and 11:00 PM at 1992 approach activity levels. The PRS will never the parallel runways in operational effectiveness,*'which is 105 toj,108 operations per hour depending on the direction of traffic flow. It is because of its high capacity that the parallel operation must be used during the peak traffic periods. Those peaks have been increasing in the last three years, reducing theiltimes the PRS can be used. The increase in operations per hour afforded by the runway extension results from the availability of increased runway length south of the intersection of Runways 4-22 and 11L -29R. The extension will provide 8,256 feet south of the intersection, sufficient for most aircraft operations at MSP. Consequently-, those operations could use Runway 22 independently o "t, unway j1L-29RL__ql1owin9 simultaneous use of--bo-th runways and gen-e—raXing the additional -------- The extension of Runway 4-22 will increase the maximum runway length available at MSP to 11,000 feet)from the existing maximum of 10,000' on Runway 11R -29L. This additional runway6length will -2- 1411., MSP Runway 1722 k� Environmental Assessment Summary .Y. -4 X14 i not result in additional types of aircraft using the airport but allow those aircraft that now operateat MSP to operate on longer stage lengths, e.g. non-stop serviceq to Europe and the Orient. 2.2.2 Historical perspective The extension of Runway 4-22 has been a part of the facility plan for MSP since the 1977 master plan. Subsequent_ events have given added importance to the operational improvements afforded by the extension. Deregulation, the Northwest/Republic merger and the development of MSP as an air travel hub are all factors which have increased traffic to the point Where the airport's maximum hourly operations configuration, the,tparallel runway operation, is required for a'greater portion of the day. The PRS is used less as a consequence. It js r •S Additionally, the recent growth of international traffic has increased the need for runway lengthrover that whichris currently available. Without the required runway length, aircraft weight must be reduced, requiring a refueling enroute or a restriction on the number of seats that can be filled, reducing the efficiency and level of service originating at MSP. r Both operational enhancements described above are addressed by the proposed extension of Runway 4-22. 3 Alternatives 3- 3.1 Objectives «* 'k s The objective against which projects,are measured in�'this EA is to increase use of the PRS, thereby reducing and more equally distributing aircraft noise impacts in the area around MSP. This objective must be met in a way which does not restrict the ability of MSP to fulfill its role intthe Metropolitan Aviation System and generate significant, regional economic benefits.`' This requires a secondary objective for the proposed improvements to improve the ability of MSP to accommodate the increasing number of long haul flight segments.10�I # 3.2 Development Alternatives V 3.2.1 Constraints F •�i�, ti A 7� No alternatives which considered achieving the objective by developing another major airport site in the Twin Cities area were actively pursued. Such alternatives are inconsistent with longstanding regional planning which1has designated4IMSP as the only•Major airport in the area. Additionally, even if another airport were determined to be required, the time required to 55, —3— ',r •v; r} MSP Runway 4-22 Environmental Assessment Summary 4 develop it would be at least ten years;- During that gime, MSP would continue to operate and the noise concerns of its neighbors could not be ignored during that significant period of,.*$,time. J" The on -airport alternatives consideredgwere fashioned oby certain physical constraints. The surrounding"iroadway system,,c.the availability of adequate space for runway clear zones and consistency with previous airport planning were considered in picking alternatiVes that met the objective. All the6e alternatives confine the constructionjof facilities to existing airport boundaries. C1. 3.2.2 Differences 3 The EA analyzed the impacts of five development alternatives; 1, 1A, 1B, IC, and 2. Alternatives 1 and12 differ only in the location of the landing threshold for Runway 4. The latter has the threshold moved 1,000' further to the southwest from its existing position while the former retains the Runway44 threshold in its present location. Both alternatives make the entire runway pavement available for take -off.. (See Figure 2) Alternatives 1A, 1B and 1C embody thetsame runway geometry as Alternative 1 but incorporate different departure flight tracks from Runway 22. Alternative 1A has four tracks, Alternative 1B, two tracks and Alternative 1C one track. While one or two flight tracks allow the confinement of aircraft noise to somewhat more defined areas, there is a loss in operational flexibility as a result of such restrictions. Air traffic controllers.must space departures from one another and, if they cannot do itilaterally along several different tracks, they must hold departures on the runway for in -trail separation. Thisi-reduces the number of departures that can be accommodated otf..7a runway in any period of time. In the case of Runway 4-22, reduction of hourlyoperations means a reduction of the amount of time the PRS can be,used. For this reason, alternative 1A was considered with as many departure tracks as at present (four) but with a,realignment of).r:two of them to overfly less noise sensitive areasst- 3.3 No -Build Alternative The no -build alternative assumes no runway extension at MSP. It is used throughout the EA as the "base.icase" againstxyhich the development alternatives are compared.7., This alternative was discounted as a viable future option,,because it neither increases the use of the PRS nor increases runway length for international service. Sa Rk 4 -4- I I Im 4 MSP Runway 4-22' Environmental Assessment Summary 4 Impacts of Proposed Project 4.1 Review of standard impacts list The EA considered a full range of areas of potentialtimpact from the proposed project.' These areas aretprescribed byrFAA Order 5050.4A. The areas analyzed are listed below: 11* 1 Aircraft Noise Compatible LandiUse . 411-1 Social Impacts Induced!?Socioeconomic Impacts Air Quality Water Quality 1A DOT 4(f) Lands Historic, Architectural"O,Archaeo- Biotic Communities logical & Cultural Resources Endangered/Threatened Wetlands Species Floodplains Coastal Zone Mgt. Coastal'Barriers Wild & Scenic Rivers Farmland~ Energy & Natural Light Emissions Resources 'fly 4.2 Identification of primary impactsc 7b Of the areas analyzed, only three are:of sufficient magnitude to warrant discussion in this summary. The three areas'are Wetlands, Construction Impacts and Aircraft Noise. Each is summarized below. 4.3 Wetlands ai orf: A one half acre marsh is located in the project areat'O approximately 1,600 feet southwest offthe existing Runway 4 end and 750 feet southeast of the extended centerline. The marsh will have to be filled to extend Taxiway D to the extended Runway 4 end. The Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act and Executive - Order 11990, Protection of Wetlands,frequire compensation of this unavoidable impact. Mitigation planslagreed to between MAC and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service call for the enlargement of Duck Lake on airport property by 0.25 to 0.30 acres to a depth of no more than 12 inches. 4.4 Construction impacts Ile The runway extension will be undertaken concurrentlyL'with a rehabilitation of the runway. Both projects represent a significant amount of construction activity. Routing of construction vehicles, control of airborne dust and prevention of sedimentation of drainage systems are'normal parts of the mitigation plan for such a construction project and will be undertaken at MSP. Additionally, therrehabilitation of the runway and the construction of the portion of the extension closest to the existing end of pavement will require ;the closure of Runway 4-22 for some periods of time. MAC will work with the MSP Runway 4-22 Environmental Assessment Summary engineer and contractor for the project; ,to minimize these down times. MAC has begun the process of minimizing down time by delaying the rehabilitation project so as to be coordinated with the runway extension. This will limit,*runway down times to the minimum. 4.5 Noise q-A - The proposed project will not result in the creation of any additional noise at MSP. The 1992 activity levels used throughout the analysis will occur with or without the -project. The effect of the project will be to increase the time-the PRS is used which has the effect of dispersing aircraft noise'. Consequently, the noise analysis concentrated on the !?,* effectiveness of the alternatives in achieving this dispersal. The conclusions of that analysis are given below and summarized in Table 1. 11 A. The increased use of the PRS, which could occur with the extension, would result in the shift of between 236 and 249 daily flights off the northwest end of Runways 11-29 to the'Iscuthwest end of Runway 4-22 whenever the PRS can be used. Jta B. Though the highest noise levels remain in South Minneapolis, the increased use of the PRS afforded by the project produces a more even distribution of noise in the environs of MSP than the "no build" alternative. C. The operations are shifted from South Minneapolis and Richfield north of 70th Street, where there is no opportunity to channelize overflights along less noise sensitive areas, to Bloomington and Richfield south of 70th Street, wherethis opportunity exists along the Cedar Avenue and 1-494 corridors. D. The amount of the shift of operations depends upon.-the availability of flight tracks along which ATC personnel can disperse Runway 22 departures. Alternative 1A represents a compromise between the Alternative 1 options which are most restrictive with respect to Runway 22"departure tracks (1C) and those which are least restrictive (10,�1B). 14, E. The difference between the noise benefits associated with the devel;pment alternatives are generallyismall.1 F. Overall Ldn noise benefits are achieved with the development alternatives. 5! G. Alternative 1A is based upon an operational scenario which is acceptable to FAA from a safety and traffic management perspective, and additionally has noise benefits consistent with the statement of purpose of the project.

Danielson Public Works Director SUBJECT: Fins, Convenience Mart DISCUSSION: At the last City Council meeting Councilmembers asked staff how it occurred that the Fina Service Station was completing remodeling work to add a convenience store to.their gas station without City Council approval of the permit. Staff was unable to answer that question at the meetings but have now pieced together the following chain of events: 1. The service station representatives met ' with Howard Dahlgren to discuss the possibility of expanding retail sales within their existing service station space. Mr. Dahlgren reviewed the City's Ordinance for a B-2 district and found that what they requested was a permitted use within the District (Tom Thumb is already in operation nearby). He informed them of this and instructed them to simply apply for a building permit. He also reviewed their plans and told them some modification to make before he would approve of their request. 2. Fina then submitted an applicationfor the building permit and Paul Berg was doing the plan review. The review was not completed before Paul left for his two week Florida vacation so he passed the permit to Dick Gill to finish up. Paul listed the items that were still needed from Fins, but did not list that after those items were completed the permit needed to go to Council. Dick assumed that the items Paul listed were as a result of a Council review and after they were met, he issued the permit. 3. Councilmembers noticed the construction and inquired of staff at the last meeting about what was going on? Council recalled a committment from the gas station representatives at a previous meeting that they would not have a convenience store (see attached Council minutes). , I also have had a discussion with Mr. Al Deininger, the Fina engineer in charge of the project as to what his comments would be to Council ques- tions: 1. Mr. Deininger was an employee of Getty Oil when he told the Council that they did not plan on adding a convenience store. He was truthful in answering the question because Getty did not plan on having a convenience store. 2. Getty then sold to Texeco and then Texeco started selling some convenience items at the station. That was the situation when Fina recently purchased the station. 3. Fina does not consider this expanded operation a "Convenience Store" such as Tom Thumb. They feel that they are a gas station, selling a limited amount of retail items to.compliment that gas station. I also talked with City Attorney Sherm Winthrop concerning the condi- tional use permit, he told me that the Court ordered the City to issue the conditional use permit and that there was nothing in that Court order that prohibits the City from issuing a permit to allow retail sales from the station. RECOMMENDATION: Inasmuch as staff has erroneously issued a permit to Fina without Council permission and the use is legal, we feel that the City could be liable for damages should Council withdraw the permit. ACTION REQUIRED: I Mr. Al Deininger, Fins. Oil Company, will be present to answer questions from Council and request Council to authorize the building permit. Council needs to ask any questions they might have of Mr. Deininger and then deter- mine a course of action. After further discussion, Mayor Lockwood moved that a building permit be granted to allow the contractor to finish up what was started on the interior of the building, per se, except the lighting and signing, conditioned upon the applicant agreeing to whatever conditions the City Council shall deem proper for the operation of the station, the location of the sign and the lighting and approval of staff. Councilwoman Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 2 Nays: 3, Losleben, Mertensotio and Hartmann The motion did not carry and the applicants were advised to return to the July 6th Council meeting with more details on the proposed lighting scheme and sign information. Staff was directed to contact Mr. Deininger to let him know what the City desires. Page No. 1668 June 15, 1982 t� �0 BUILDING Mr. Al Deininger, from Getty Oil and Mr. Bill Richie, were Pt IT REQUEST present to discuss their proposed remodeling plans for the Surfco Gas Station at 1960.Dodd Road. The remodeling is to allow the-station to become self-service, and is not intended to be a convenience store. They noted that the•new lighting to be installed will be less bright that what is there now and that the light will be cast down, rather than out and around. Mr. Richie noted that there is a similar station located in Cannon Falls and one in South St. Paul, if the Council desired to observe these. It was noted that the original conditional use permit was granted to Skelly Oil in 1972, to allow the station to be in operation. Mr. Deininger noted that Skelly merged With Getty, so technically they are the same owner. He also noted that the exterior of the building will have a sand•tone painted rough sawn cedar exterior. Councilman Losleben expressed concern over the new type of lighting to be installed and also questioned the location of the new sign. He felt that the Council should address all'areas of the building permit, rather than just one phase of it at a time. After further discussion, Mayor Lockwood moved that a building permit be granted to allow the contractor to finish up what was started on the interior of the building, per se, except the lighting and signing, conditioned upon the applicant agreeing to whatever conditions the City Council shall deem proper for the operation of the station, the location of the sign and the lighting and approval of staff. Councilwoman Witt seconded the motion. Ayes: 2 Nays: 3, Losleben, Mertensotio and Hartmann The motion did not carry and the applicants were advised to return to the July 6th Council meeting with more details on the proposed lighting scheme and sign information. Staff was directed to contact Mr. Deininger to let him know what the City desires.

Swanson City Clerk MEMO CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS December 6, 1988 To: Mayor and City Council From: Kevin Fr,yty Administrator Re: Appointment of Administrative Assistant Council has already received my recommendation that Kevin Batchelder be appointed to the position of Administrative Assistant. The reasons for my recommendation, and a copy of Kevin's resume, were included with the packet already sent to you. I would be happy to answer any further questions you may have about -this candidate. SALARY CLASSIFICATION Attached is a copy of the City's 1988 Salary Matrix Resolution. When we adopt the new resolution for 1989 (which will be done at the December 20th meeting), it would be my recommendation that the position of Administrative Assistant be classified in Group XXIV. This is the same class as has the positions of Sr. Engineering Technician, Code Enforcement Officer, and Engineer. This classification seems to make sense, both from an internal equity standpoint, and in comparison with the salaries beginning paid by other communities for similar positions Assuming that the salary matrix is increased 4% for 1989, as anticipated in the budget, the salary progression for the Administrative Assistant would then be: Beginning $28,169 6 Months 29,577 1 Year 31,056 2 Years 32,609 3 Years 34,240 The beginning salary on January 4th would be the $28,169. With an increase to the 6 month rate in the second half of the year, the annual compensation would average $28,873. $30,000 was allocated in the 1989 budget. The difference could cover memberships and training opportunities in which Kevin is interested, and which would normally accorded to an Assistant. The remaining benefits would the same as received by other full-time employees. ACTION REQUIRED If Council concurs with the recommendation, it should pass a motion appointing Kevin Batchelder to the position of Administrative Assistant, effective January 4, 1988, and directing staff to classify the position in Group XXIV on the City's 1989 Salary Matrix.

Swanson City Clerk SUBJECT: ICity Hall Systems Furniture Purchase During her process of developing an office system furniture plan many months ago, our Interior Design Consultant, Suzanne Ilten, met briefly with each of the clerical employees to determine their needs. Unfortunately, our employees.had little or no exposure to systems furniture, and while the result of Suzanne's plan is impressive looking, it is not, as functional as it could, or should, be for many employees'. The purpose of this memo is to request Council authorization to order additional pieces of systems furniture which will finish Administration clerical areas, engineering technician and clerical areas and the Police Sergeants' and clerical areas. I INFORMATION From the Administration and Engineering perspective, we envisioned that the systems would be furnished with u -shaped work surfaces, pedestal units attached to the work surfaces, electrically powered panels for each station and file cabinets!of a capacity roughly equivalent to what each employee had at the old facility. Our mental pictures differed ,,quite a bit from reality. We have reviewed the plan with Suzanne and the Facility Systems representative and have asked Suzanne to generate estimated costs for a list of items which we believe will create far more functional work stations +and very happy employees. We do not yet have firm prices, but anticipate that the cost for necessary Administration items will be approximately $1,250. The projected cost to Engineering is $720. The majority !of these costs relate to purchase of work surfaces, power panels, and the reVlacement (restocking costs) of two - drawer rolling files, which are of minimal use to us, with 3 drawer pedestal units to be attached to each of the clerical work surfaces. The `anticipated Code Enforcement cost is $560. This will provide for a divider wall between the two exsiting stations. The original layout of the Code Enforcement office provided for two distinct stations, similar in appearance to the engineering tech stations, within the one large office. Somewhere along the way, the plan was changed and the result consists of two wall -hung work surfaces with no separation between stations. The decision to add an investigator position in the Police Department occured after the systems furniture vas ordered. The original systems plan called for four work stations in the Sergeants' office (three work stations and a computer station), however the fourth station was removed from the priority list when we attempted to reduce overall initial furniture costs. While the cost for installing the new station is fairly significant, it has become a priority. The anticipated cost for this work station and minor costs for completion of several of the other Police Department work stations is approximately $2,150. We believe that each of the items proposed to be purchased is necessary and warranted. The total projected cost is $4,680. The purchase, if approved, would be made from Facility Systems, Inc. under the State contract (72% discount from list prices). Each of the four departments will finance its cost within its 1988 budget. RECOMMENDATION We recommend that Council authorize staff to issue a purchase order to Facility Systems, Inc. to provide for the completion of the existing work stations and addition of one work station in the Police Department. ACTION REQUIRED If Council concurs in the recommendation, it should pass a motion authorizing the issuance of a purchase order to Facility Systems, Inc. for an amount not to exceed $4,700 for the purchase of Herman Miller Action Office Encore products.
