NEW AND UNFINISHED BUSINESS A) MEMORAUNDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH NDC4 MODIFYING THE ALLOCATION OF CABLE FRANCHISE FEE REVENUES City Administrator Cheryl Jacobson explained that the Council was being asked to approve a Memorandum of Understanding with the Northern Dakota County Cable Communications Commission (NDC4) to modify the established allocation of cable franchise fee revenue. Brian Grogan, NDC4 legal counsel, provided a brief history of NDC4 and the coverage that it provides to its seven-member cities. He provided information on the Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) and revenue generated by franchise fees. He explained that the franchise fee revenue is decreasing as more people turn away from traditional cable to streaming services, while the operating expenses for the organization remain the same. He stated that typically 25 percent of the franchise fee revenue is returned to the member cities, but the proposal would be to return 12.5 percent in 2024 and 6.25 percent in 2025. He stated that this would allow them to bridge the gap during the transition from cable to streaming services. He commented that there is legislation being considered that would change the way companies pay to use the right-of-way. He stated that this two-year agreement would allow NDC4 to keep providing quality service during that period. He provided additional details on the audit that was completed and revenue that was identified to be paid, noting that this agreement would allow NDC4 to keep that in 2024. Councilor Paper recognized that the franchise fees have been decreasing for some time and asked if this is then dependent on the action of the legislature. Mr. Grogan commented that Comcast is still using the right-of-way and accessing homes in the same way, but instead of just selling cable television, Comcast also sells broadband. He stated that this agreement Page 4 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 3 of 10 will provide time for the state legislature and Federal government to try to assess this situation and determine if these companies can continue to use the right-of-way without fee payment, or whether there would be a fee to municipalities for that use of the right-of-way. Councilor Paper recalled that Comcast works slowly, as it is not in their best interest to work quickly on these matters. He asked what would happen if the government cannot get out of its own way, revenue continues to decrease over the next two years and NDC4 cannot be funded. Mr. Grogan stated that if nothing changes in the next two years and subscribers continue to drop there will be hard decisions to be made and the City will be involved in those decisions. Councilor Paper commented that NDC4 is a great organization but is already very lean and would hate to see it reduced any further. Mr. Grogan stated that this two-year agreement would allow NDC4 to continue its current level of service, noting that the organization is not trying to grow. Councilor Mazzitello asked how the City uses the revenue from the franchise fees. Finance Director Kristen Schabacker stated that the fees go into the cable fund, which is included under the general fund. She stated that it is not something the city budgets for but uses the funds for technology upgrades and updates to the Council Chambers. Councilor Lorberbaum moved to approve MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING WITH THE NORTHERN DAKOTA COUNTY CABLE COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (NDC4) TO MODIFY THE ESTABLISHED ALLOCATION OF CABLE FRANCHISE FEE REVENUE. Councilor Mazzitello seconded the motion. Further discussion: Councilor Paper commented that this service is very important to the community as without this service the Council meetings are not televised. Councilor Mazzitello echoed those comments and thanked Councilor Lorberbaum for representing the City on the Commission. Councilor Lorberbaum agreed that there is no substitute for the service provided by the talented staff at NDC4. City Administrator Cheryl Jacobson stated that the League of Minnesota Cities has a legislative policy regarding broadband fees for the next state legislative session. Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 B) MENDOTA HEIGHTS POLICE DEPARTMENT 2020 PROJECT Page 5 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 4 of 10 Police Chief Kelly McCarthy provided a brief background on this item. The Council was being asked to approve reimbursement for the purchase of a home gun safe for each Mendota Heights Police Officer. Councilor Lorberbaum commented that this is a wonderful idea. She asked why the patch would be available to wear in June. Police Chief Kelly McCarthy stated that June is gun violence awareness month. She provided additional details on the proposed patch. Councilor Paper asked if the gun safe would then become mandatory for Officers. Police Chief Kelly McCarthy stated that the safe would not be mandatory but there is a policy that the gun must be stored safely, which means that no one else can access it. Councilor Paper asked if $200 is sufficient to cover the cost of a gun safe. Police Chief Kelly McCarthy stated that many handgun safes are available for under $200, and she will also reach out for potential details on savings for a public/private partnership. Councilor Paper asked if the department still uses long guns and whether those are taken home. Police Chief Kelly McCarthy confirmed that the department does have long guns but those are not taken home. She stated that when vehicles are taken home there is a policy that addresses how those guns must be stored. She confirmed that this would come from the department budget and therefore no formal action is needed to support the purchase, but the Council could take action to support the program. Councilor Mazzitello moved to approve MENDOTA HEIGHTS POLICE DEPARTMENT PROJECT 2020. Councilor Lorberbaum seconded the motion. Further discussion: Councilor Mazzitello stated that the City has the best Police Chief, and that this is an awesome program. Police Chief Kelly McCarthy thanked Councilor Paper who reached out after a tragedy and asked what could be done. Councilor Lorberbaum clarified that the action also approves the reimbursement for the gun safes as discussed. Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 C) PLANNING CASE 2024-17 – CONSIDER RESOLUTION 2024-56 APPROVING A MRCCA PERMIT AND AMENDED CUP FOR XCEL ENERGY AT 800 SIBLEY MEMORIAL HIGHWAY Community Development Manager Sarah Madden provided a brief background on this item. The Council was being asked to consider adoption of Resolution 2024-56 approving a Mississippi River Corridor Page 6 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 5 of 10 Critical Area (MRCCA) Permit and amended Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for Xcel Energy at the Sibley Propane Tank Facility located at 800 Sibley Memorial Highway. Mayor Levine acknowledged the great work of the Planning Commission on this case, noting the questions asked by neighbors were also answered at that meeting as well. Councilor Lorberbaum asked when the work would take place if approved. Brian Sullivan, Xcel Energy, replied that the goal is to start the work this fall on the mounding of the soil. He stated that they are currently working on maintenance of the tanks and once the approval is gained, they would bring the soil in to do the mounding. He stated that they would also plan to complete the retaining wall this fall. He stated that they would also hope to complete the waterline from Farmdale, which was included in a previous approval. Councilor Lorberbaum asked if the project would be completed this fall. Mr. Sullivan replied that it would be anticipated to be completed in December 2025. Councilor Lorberbaum thanked Xcel for hearing the comments of the residents and their desire to minimize the impact on the trees. She also thanked the Planning Commission for its thorough discussion. Councilor Paper asked and received confirmation that the plan is still to directionally bore the waterline. He asked if the safety shelter would be for a tornado. Mr. Sullivan replied that the shelter would be for inclement weather protection. He commented that it is just a small bunker and did not believe it would have power. Councilor Paper asked for more information on the retaining wall. Grant Pinska, Xcel Energy identified the location for the retaining wall as well as its purpose. He confirmed that it would be within the fenced area. Councilor Paper commented that it would be difficult for anyone to even notice anything being done from Sibley Memorial Highway. Councilor Mazzitello moved to approve RESOLUTION 2024-56 APPROVING A MISSISSIPPI RIVER CORRIDOR CRITICAL AREA (MRCCA) PERMIT AND AMENDED CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT (CUP) TO XCEL ENERGY FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 800 SIBLEY MEMORIAL HIGHWAY, PLANNING CASE 2024-17. Councilor Paper seconded the motion. Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 D) TABLED – CONSIDERATION OF ORDINANCE NO. 591: SHORT TERM RENTALS AND ORDINANCE NO. 594: FEE SCHEDULE AMENDMENT Page 7 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 6 of 10 Councilor Paper moved to REMOVE ORDINANCE NO. 591 AND ORDINANCE NO. 594 FROM THE TABLE FOR DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION. Councilor Lorberbaum seconded the motion. Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 Community Development Manager Sarah Madden provided a brief background on this item. The Council was being asked to consider adoption of Ordinance No. 591, amending Title 3: Business and License regulations to add a new Chapter 5A: Short Term Rentals; authorize publication of summary ordinance; and adopt Ordinance No. 594 amending the City’s Fee Schedule by establishing a Short Term Rental License Fee. Councilor Paper asked about the purpose of the guest registry. Community Development Manager Sarah Madden commented that the standard was moved over from the rental housing ordinance and is seen in ordinances by other cities as well. She agreed that it may seem dated to require. Councilor Paper asked if that is shown at the time of license renewal. Community Development Manager Sarah Madden replied that it is not shown at the time of licensing or renewal but would need to be available upon request by the City. Councilor Lorberbaum asked if the guest registry would be a public document. City Attorney Amy Schmidt replied that as long as the guest registry is not in possession of the City it is not considered government data. She stated that it should be available for inspection upon request. Councilor Lorberbaum asked if the City does, or should, give a list of the data that should be included in the guest registry such as the name of the person and contact information. She asked if there should be a note that the person renting is over the age of 25. City Attorney Amy Schmidt commented that the City can dictate the information to be included in the guest registry. She stated that the age requirement would be enforceable whether or not that information is in the registry. She noted that this information would be included in the online service used to rent the property. She stated that the intention would not be for the City to retain that information but for the owner to retain that information and provide to the City upon request. Community Development Manager Sarah Madden stated that the City requests that listing of the property be provided to the City as well, which would ensure that the requirements are included in that listing. Councilor Lorberbaum moved to adopt ORDINANCE NO. 591, AMENDING TILE 3 BUSINESS AND LICENSE REGULATIONS TO ADOPT A NEW CHAPTER OF THE CITY CODE TO INCORPORATE CHAPTER 5A: SHORT TERM RENTALS, ESTABLUSHING A SHORT TERM LICENSE AND REGULATORY STANDARDS, AND AUTHORIZE PUBLICATION OF A SUMMARY ORDINANCE; AND ADOPT ORDINANCE NO. 594, AMENDING THE CITY’S FEE Page 8 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 7 of 10 SCHEDULE TO ADD A SHORT TERM RENTAL LICENSE FEE, AND INCLUCED WITH THAT WOULD BE THE GEUST REGISTRY AND THAT WOULD INCLUDE THE AGE OF THE RENTER OR A CHECK MARK THAT THE RENTER IS 25 OR OLDER. Councilor Paper seconded the motion. Further discussion: Councilor Mazzitello stated that there is a story behind every caution label. He asked what Council was trying to accomplish with this ordinance and how this started. He stated that there are a couple dozen short term rentals in Mendota Heights and complaints were received about only one property. He stated that they are creating an ordinance for one bad operator. He stated that he has an issue with the homestead requirement and asked if they should be treating an out of city person different than a city person. He believed that they could get to where they want to go without that requirement. He stated that another metro city went down the path of wanting to have the homestead requirement and instead chose to limit the number of short term rental properties an out of city person could operate to one. He asked if the Council would support that change as it would accomplish the same goal without tap dancing on a thin constitutional line. Councilor Lorberbaum asked if they removed the homestead requirement, could they require that the owner be a resident of the city. City Attorney Amy Schmidt commented that would be more restrictive than the situation that Councilor Mazzitello already sees as an issue. She stated that the option suggested by Councilor Lorberbaum would be vague and difficult to enforce. She stated that Mendota Heights has the authority to regulate commerce from inside and outside the city and therefore was not concerned with the issues raised by Councilor Mazzitello. She stated that whether there is a homestead requirement or limit of one short term rental operated by someone outside of the city there would not be an issue as long as the requirements are applied equally across the board. Mayor Levine commented that the larger goal is that the City does not want people buying up properties to rent them out. She stated that the homestead requirement was included because people care about their homes and would therefore care about who they rent to. She recognized that some people will be upset because they cannot purchase homes solely for the purpose of renting them out, but noted that other people will be happy because that issue will be prevented. She stated that the Council wants people to be able to stay in their homes and potentially rent them out when they are out of town. She recognized that the catalyst in this was one problem home. Councilor Lorberbaum commented that her suggestion would not require the person to homestead the property. She explained that a resident could purchase additional homes to rent out for short term rental. Mayor Levine commented that topic has not been discussed by the Council. Councilor Mazzitello commented that they do not really know the number of short term rental properties in Mendota Heights, as they are only aware of the properties listed on the rental sites they have checked. He asked if they would be punishing people that are acting appropriately in order to punish someone behaving badly. He stated that they are crafting an ordinance to address one property and that will be applied city-wide. He stated that maybe there are rules in place that the licensing program would fix that Page 9 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 8 of 10 property and there would not need to be a city-wide requirement that could potentially hurt a property acting appropriately. Mayor Levine stated that the typical short term rental in Mendota Heights is a home someone lives in, and they rent them out. She stated that this has been discussed for the past year and she would be surprised if there are people in the community doing this and not coming forward with their concerns about the potential ordinance. She stated that she would not be in favor of the suggestion of Councilor Lorberbaum which would allow a resident to purchase multiple properties for the intention of short term rental. Councilor Paper commented that people who are buying real estate for the purpose of rental property generally use an LLC, which is easy to form and therefore could simply create a new LLC for the additional purchase. He stated that the problem exists with rentals of two to three days. He referenced the Fee Schedule which has resident and non-resident fees. He stated that a liquor license can cost $10,000. He suggested that perhaps the non-resident rental license fee be set high, using the example of $30,000. Councilor Lorberbaum asked if they would need to table this again and bring it back to a work session. Mayor Levine acknowledged that they are also missing a member of the Council tonight. City Attorney Amy Schmidt stated that parks and recreation uses a resident and non-resident fee, which is standard as there would be a benefit for residents paying taxes to have a lower fee. She stated that any fee attached to a license has to be reasonable and related to the activity being regulated and therefore cannot be exorbitant. She stated that the short term rental fee would need to be reasonably related to the cost of inspecting and operating the program. Councilor Paper commented that there is a cost for complaints, which are handled by City staff. He stated that they are trying to help residents, and this is costing an upside-down amount to regulate this. He commented that this property is in a residential community and has buses pulling up on weekends. He stated that if they want to eliminate the homestead portion of this, something else would need to be done in order to support the residents. He stated that Mendota Heights is not a vacation community, although residents do want the option to rent their houses out and that has worked fine with the exception of this one property. He stated that if they pull the license the property could continue to operate without a license, or a new LLC could own the property. City Administrator Cheryl Jacobson commented that related to Councilor Paper’s statement, the issue would become an issue of code enforcement, and they could continue to work to implement administrative citations in addition to licensing. Councilor Lorberbaum commented that she was not specifically giving up on the homestead requirement. Councilor Paper stated that if the homestead component were removed, perhaps they would want to recapture the minimum length of stay. Councilor Mazzitello commented that he did not mean to throw a wrench in the gears, but there was a constitutional claim at the last meeting against what they were proposing. He stated that he would support Page 10 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 9 of 10 tabling this to have another work session as that could allow Councilor Miller to participate as well. He stated that a number of emails and contacts were provided from people who wanted the City to ban short term rentals, noting that the City does not have the authority to ban short term rentals and therefore chose to go down the path of regulating. Councilor Lorberbaum withdrew her motion. Councilor Lorberbaum moved to TABLE THIS DISCUSSION TO A FUTURE WORK SESSION. Councilor Mazzitello seconded the motion. Further discussion: Councilor Mazzitello acknowledged that the October work session is already full and asked when this would be considered. City Administrator Cheryl Jacobson confirmed that the October work session agenda is full, but this could be on the November 19th work session agenda. She also noted that the council had added a meeting and work session on November 12th. The Council discussed options and decided to add this to the November 12th work session agenda, which will begin at 5 p.m. Councilor Paper commented that it will be unlikely that the Council will reach full consensus on this issue, and it will be the same in the community. He stated that the Council needs to start talking about cannabis because that is around the corner. Councilor Paper reconfirmed a second to the motion to TABLE THIS DISCUSSION TO A FUTURE WORK SESSION Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 COMMUNITY ANNOUNCEMENTS City Administrator Cheryl Jacobson announced upcoming community events and activities. COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilor Paper wished everyone L’Shana Tova - a happy new year for those who celebrate and recognized it’s been a difficult year. Councilor Lorberbaum also wished everyone who celebrates L’Shana Tova a happy, joyful, and peaceful year for those who celebrate. Councilor Mazzitello stated that October is domestic violence awareness month, which is recognized with the color purple. He stated that domestic violence and abuse take a number of forms, physical, emotional and psychological in the one place people should feel safe, in their home. He asked people to check in Page 11 of 104 October 1, 2024 Mendota Heights City Council Page 10 of 10 with their neighbors, family members and friends. He stated that domestic violence can happen anywhere, to any economic class, or gender. Mayor Levine commented that absentee voting is available at City Hall now. ADJOURN Councilor Mazzitello moved to adjourn. Councilor Paper seconded the motion. Ayes: 4 Nays: 0 Mayor Levine adjourned the meeting at 8:32 p.m. ____________________________________ Stephanie B. Levine Mayor ATTEST: _______________________________ Nancy Bauer City Clerk Page 12 of 104 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS, DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA PARKS AND RECREATION MEETING MINUTES AUGUST 14, 2024 The August meeting of the Mendota Heights Parks and Recreation Commission was held on Wednesday, August 14, 2024, at Mendota Heights City Hall, 1101 Victoria Curve. 1.

Pledge of Allegiance The Pledge of Allegiance was recited. 4. Approval of Agenda Chair Blanks requested to move the item: Parks and Recreation Intern Presentation to the beginning of the meeting. Motion Sherer/second Meyer, to approve the agenda as amended. AYES 6: NAYS 0 5. New Business 5.a Parks and Recreation Intern Presentation Parks and Recreation Director Meredith Lawrence stated that staff is proud to have the Parks and Recreation Intern Sydnee Yengo present tonight to provide a presentation. She noted that her last day with the City will be next Friday. She stated that Sydnee has been a great addition to the team this summer and thanked her for her contributions, noting that she was able to accomplish things that Parks and Recreation staff would not have been able to do without her. Parks and Recreation Intern Sydnee Yengo introduced herself and identified her goals for the summer. She reviewed her responsibilities during her time in Mendota Heights and provided details on the programs and projects that she was involved with, along with other items she worked on including drafting policies and creating a sustainability webpage. She stated that she enjoyed working with City staff and members of the community. Commissioner Muller thanked Ms. Yengo for her service this summer, noting that she saw her at many community events this summer. Commissioner Sherer commented that the summer intern experience is great for both the intern and the staff. He asked which park is next for a sign planting. Ms. Yengo replied that she is not aware of which park will be next. Page 13 of 104 6.b Commissioner Schifsky expressed thanks noting that she has also seen Ms. Yengo at several summer events. She appreciated her joyful attitude and commented that she is excited about the sustainability webpage. Chair Blanks asked the most challenging project this summer. Ms. Yengo replied that the fleet policy was the most challenging as it involved a lot of research collection. Chair Blanks and the Commission expressed thanks for the work that was completed this summer. 6.a Approval of Minutes from July 9, 2024 Regular Meeting Motion Schifsky/second Toth to approve the minutes of the July 9, 2024 Parks and Recreation Commission Regular Meeting. AYES 6: NAYS 0 7.Citizen Comment Period (for items not on the agenda) None. 8.Acknowledgement of Reports Chair Blanks read the titles of the three updates (Par 3, Park Improvement, Recreation, Park System Master Plan, and Parks and Recreation Strategic Plan Updates) and polled the Commissioners for questions. 8.a Par 3 Update Parks and Recreation Director Meredith Lawrence briefly reviewed the written report including the number of rounds, maintenance, and the challenges of the rain. She stated that they are still working to address vandalism that is occurring at the course. She stated that two budget requests were presented to the Council for 2025 relating to the golf course including a staff position that would be split between the golf course and parks and recreation. She stated that the financial report from the course was distributed to the Commission prior to the meeting and provided a brief overview. Commissioner Toth asked if there has been an increased cost in maintenance of weeds due to the increased rainfall. Ms. Lawrence confirmed that they have worked with a consultant to change the mixture of applications for the site to address the things that have been growing. Commissioner Sherer referenced the proposed staffing position split and asked if the person would be the main contact for the golf course, which would free Ms. Lawrence for other activities. Ms. Lawrence confirmed that the golf course is taking more and more of her time, and this additional position would allow designated focus on the course for marketing, course technology updates (tee management software) and employee management at the course. In addition to helping out with the golf course, this position would assist with existing recreation programs and events. Commissioner Sherer asked if a second intern has been considered. Page 14 of 104 Ms. Lawrence commented that has been considered. She noted the amount of staff time that is spent to add an intern and make the internship a valuable experience is extensive and it would be difficult to have an intern at a site with little staff interaction--therefore the golf course would not be a good fit for that type of position. Commissioner Schifsky asked if they have looked at deliveries for products. Ms. Lawrence commented that they have done that but there is an issue with storage and staff completing those store runs has become the best fit. She commented that there is a low number of staff and high demand, therefore there needs to be additional staff or less duties. Commissioner Muller commented that Mendota Heights has a significantly smaller staff than cities of similar size. Ms. Lawrence stated that at the Master Plan presentation of information from the consultant, it was projected that the City is four employees short in terms of park and recreation. She stated that staff is going to reach out to other cities to see what their staffing levels are. She stated that she received a report from West St. Paul today and reviewed the parks and recreation staff in that community, which would be in addition to public works/park staff members. 8.b Parks Improvement Update Parks and Recreation Director Meredith Lawrence provided a status update on the different park improvement projects. She noted that the 2025 budget requests have been presented to the City Council and stated that the budget process will involve discussion about the special parks fund balance policy. Commissioner Toth referenced the fund balance policy and asked if the Commission should provide input to the Council on whether that policy should be amended. Ms. Lawrence replied that the Commission is always welcome to provide a recommendation to the Council. She stated that the special parks fund is not a maintenance fund and if they are going to continue to improve the parks, they will need those funds. She stated that there is an apartment project that will go forward in the next few years, which will replenish the fund but that will most likely be the last substantial contribution and therefore future funding for the parks will need to be a continued discussion topic. She recognized that there was intent behind the original policy, but the City is now in a different place and those funds will need to be used. Commissioner Sherer commented that he recalled that $350,000 to $400,000 in annual funding would be needed to continue to provide park improvements. He asked for more information on the locking mechanism for the Mendakota bathrooms. Ms. Lawrence commented on the many meetings they have had on this project. She noted that users will be able to lock the bathroom when in use and leave the bathroom when done. Commissioner Meyer asked the contractor that was used for the Marie Park pickleball courts. Ms. Lawrence replied that CNH Sports Surfaces was the contractor, noting that the City has had great experiences working with that contractor. Commissioner Meyer agreed, noting that she wanted to commend the contractor for the excellent job that they did on the project and cleaning up. Page 15 of 104 Commissioner Sherer asked if anything is suggested to protect the pickleball surface when it is flooded in the winter. Ms. Lawrence replied that they have not received any additional recommendations. 8.c Recreation Update Recreation Program Coordinator Willow Eisfeldt provided an update on the Parks Celebration events held this past weekend. She also reviewed other recent activities and programing events as well as upcoming events and programing opportunities for youth and adults. Chair Blanks and the Commission thanked staff for all the planning and effort that goes into the Parks Celebration events. Commissioner Muller asked why the Maker’s Market is not going to be the same day as the 5K. Ms. Eisfeldt commented that they are hoping to attract more shoppers during the cooler weather, that may be shopping for the holidays. 8.d Park System Master Plan Update Parks and Recreation Director Meredith Lawrence provided an update on the Park System Master Plan process, noting that phase two of engagement has begun. She explained that phase one opened the door for requests and desires within the park system while phase two will focus more on the level at which residents would be supportive of funding. She thanked the Commission for their assistance with engagement. Commissioner Muller asked why a water feature was not a direct question on the phase two survey, as that was a clear request in phase one. Ms. Lawrence commented that element would be dependent on the funding information gathered during phase two, as there would be no point in asking the question if residents are not willing to fund at that level. She stated that while there is a desire for a water feature by some residents, there are water features and pools available in adjacent communities. She stated that the answers received in the funding portion of engagement would open the discussion for phase three to include the elements that could be provided at the different funding levels. 9.Old Business 9.a Park System Master Plan Commissioner Engagement Parks and Recreation Director Meredith Lawrence stated that staff has been out a fair amount interacting with residents and discussing the project within the past week. She stated that they engaged a lot of youth during phase one, where phase two will focus more on adults because of the financing focus. She stated that phase two marketing materials are available for the Commission members, acknowledging their assistance throughout this process.

BACKGROUND: The City owns 122 streetlights in the industrial portion of the city. Presently, all fixtures have a 400-watt High Pressure Sodium bulb. Staff is proposing a conversion to LED fixtures in order to reduce maintenance and save energy costs. Mendota Heights is a Green Step City and this conversion will include light fixtures that have the IDA certification for Dark Sky lighting, as well as reducing energy usage. Staff had four different luminaires installed with different wattages and colors to get a close comparison to the present bulbs. The high pressure sodium color is around 2200 kelvin, and the lowest LED color available is 3000 kelvin, which is also the highest recommended color for Dark Sky compliance. This conversion has a payback analysis of 4.6 years and is estimated to reduce energy costs by 60% per year. The LED fixtures have a five-year warranty and an estimated life span of between 50,000 and 100,000 hours, compared to the high pressure sodium bulbs that last for 24,000 hours. Staff received three quotes on this project with a price per fixture installed: Mid Northern Electric: $850 Killmer Electric: $1,112 Collins Electric: $1,108 Staff recommends awarding a contract to Mid Northern Electric to remove and replace 70 light Page 26 of 104 fixtures with LED fixtures for $59,500. The remaining fixtures will be replaced in 2025. FISCAL AND RESOURCE IMPACT: The project is funded through the special streetlight taxing district and will also be eligible for an Xcel Energy rebate of $5,000.

BACKGROUND: Organic recycling participation has been increasing over the past several years. Organics currently make up approximately 26 percent of the waste going to the landfill. This material can be composted and converted into a usable product. Twin Cities Metro counties are required to develop plans and implement programs that will increase our overall recycling rate (both traditional recycling and organics) to 75% by 2030. Currently, Dakota County has around a 53% rate. Food scraps are a heavy component of the waste stream, diverting them from landfills will help achieve compliance with this state statute. The City and Dakota County partner on an organics drop off site at Mendakota Park. Sites like this are intended to be short-term sites, until curbside collection of residential organics is widely available throughout the region (which is anticipated to occur over the next 5-6 years). The drop-sites are a wonderful way to educate the public leading up to curbside programs. Due to rising costs, Dakota County staff requested additional funding to support the Mendakota organic drop-off site. The County approved an increase in funding from $29,000 per year to $57,500 per year. The County will provide: •Site planning and support for elected officials, administrators, public groups and other Page 51 of 104 support needs that come up •Reimbursements for various start-up costs (such as signage and bag distribution boxes) •Reimbursement for ongoing program costs such as compostable bag purchases and hauling/disposal costs •City-wide recruitment via direct mail •Ongoing program registration and Welcome Kit distribution •Public training sessions and a dedicated program webpage and email address •Ongoing communication (via site-specific Listserv) Mendota Heights provides the following: •Site location •Staff time: o Staff would order, store and distribute compostable bags (bags are purchased off the state contract and county staff would provide you with detailed purchasing instructions) (the County would reimburse the City for compostable bag costs) o Remove snow and ice in the wintertime o Install site location sign o Retain a licensed waste hauler (again the County would reimburse the City for hauling costs) o Submit reimbursement requests to the County (minimum 2 times per year) o Collaborate with the County to plan, promote and report on the site (report includes occasional observations for volume tracking and right-sizing) FISCAL AND RESOURCE IMPACT: The County will continue reimburse the city for the costs to implement the drop site.

WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the City that the Bonds be issued in book- entry form as hereinafter provided; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights, Minnesota, as follows: 1. Acceptance of Proposal. The proposal of ______________, ____________, Minnesota (the "Purchaser"), to purchase the Bonds, in accordance with the Preliminary Official Statement, at the rates of interest hereinafter set forth, and to pay therefor the sum of $_____________, plus interest accrued to settlement, is hereby found, determined and declared to be the most favorable proposal received, is hereby accepted and the Bonds are hereby awarded to the Purchaser. The Finance Director is directed to retain the deposit of the Purchaser. 2. Bond Terms. (a) Original Issue Date; Denominations; Maturities. The Bonds shall be dated November 5, 2024, as the date of original issue, be issued forthwith on or after such date in fully registered form, be numbered from R-1 upward in the denomination of $5,000 each or in any integral multiple thereof of a single maturity (the "Authorized Denominations") and mature on February 1 in the years and amounts as follows: Year Amount 2026 $ 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 2035 As may be requested by the Purchaser, one or more term Bonds may be issued having mandatory sinking fund redemption and final maturity amounts conforming to the foregoing principal repayment schedule, and corresponding additions may be made to the provisions of the applicable Bond(s). (b) Book Entry Only System. The Depository Trust Company, a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York or any of its successors or its successors to its functions hereunder (the "Depository") will act as securities depository for the Bonds, and to this end: Page 58 of 104 134994379v1 3 (i) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so long as they remain in book entry form only (the "Book Entry Only Period"), shall at all times be in the form of a separate single fully registered Bond for each maturity of the Bonds; and for purposes of complying with this requirement under paragraphs 5 and 10 Authorized Denominations for any Bond shall be deemed to be limited during the Book Entry Only Period to the outstanding principal amount of that Bond. (ii) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the Bonds shall be registered in a bond register maintained by the Bond Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in the name of CEDE & CO, as the nominee (it or any nominee of the existing or a successor Depository, the "Nominee"). (iii) With respect to the Bonds neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall have any responsibility or obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other financial institution for which the Depository holds Bonds as securities depository (the "Participant") or the person for which a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds shown on the books and records of the Participant (the "Beneficial Owner"). Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, neither the City, nor the Bond Registrar, shall have any such responsibility or obligation with respect to (A) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, the Nominee or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any Participant, any Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (C) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any amount with respect to the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the consent given or other action taken by the Depository as the Registered Holder of any Bonds (the "Holder"). For purposes of securing the vote or consent of any Holder under this Resolution, the City may, however, rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository assigns its consenting or voting rights to certain Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy. (iv) The City and the Bond Registrar may treat as and deem the Depository to be the absolute owner of the Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by Holders for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Bonds, and for all purpose whatsoever. The Bond Registrar, as paying agent hereunder, shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to the Holder or the Holders of the Bonds as shown on the bond register, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. Page 59 of 104 134994379v1 4 (v) Upon delivery by the Depository to the Bond Registrar of written notice to the effect that the Depository has determined to substitute a new Nominee in place of the existing Nominee, and subject to the transfer provisions in paragraph 10, references to the Nominee hereunder shall refer to such new Nominee. (vi) So long as any Bond is registered in the name of a Nominee, all payments with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Bond and all notices with respect to such Bond shall be made and given, respectively, by the Bond Registrar or City, as the case may be, to the Depository as provided in the Letter of Representations to the Depository required by the Depository as a condition to its acting as book-entry Depository for the Bonds (said Letter of Representations, together with any replacement thereof or amendment or substitute thereto, including any standard procedures or policies referenced therein or applicable thereto respecting the procedures and other matters relating to the Depository's role as book-entry Depository for the Bonds, collectively hereinafter referred to as the "Letter of Representations"). (vii) All transfers of beneficial ownership interests in each Bond issued in book-entry form shall be limited in principal amount to Authorized Denominations and shall be effected by procedures by the Depository with the Participants for recording and transferring the ownership of beneficial interests in such Bonds. (viii) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to the Holders pursuant to this Resolution by the City or Bond Registrar with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Holders, the Depository shall consider the date of receipt of notice requesting such consent or other action as the record date for such consent or other action; provided, that the City or the Bond Registrar may establish a special record date for such consent or other action. The City or the Bond Registrar shall, to the extent possible, give the Depository notice of such special record date not less than fifteen calendar days in advance of such special record date to the extent possible. (ix) Any successor Bond Registrar in its written acceptance of its duties under this Resolution and any paying agency/bond registrar agreement, shall agree to take any actions necessary from time to time to comply with the requirements of the Letter of Representations. (c) Termination of Book-Entry Only System. Discontinuance of a particular Depository's services and termination of the book-entry only system may be effected as follows: (i) The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the City and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. The City may terminate the services of the Depository with respect to the Bond if it determines that the Depository is no longer able to carry out its functions as securities depository or the continuation of the system of book-entry transfers through the Depository is not in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners. Page 60 of 104 134994379v1 5 (ii) Upon termination of the services of the Depository as provided in the preceding paragraph, and if no substitute securities depository is willing to undertake the functions of the Depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the City, is willing and able to assume such functions upon reasonable or customary terms, or if the City determines that it is in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners of the Bond that the Beneficial Owners be able to obtain certificates for the Bonds, the Bonds shall no longer be registered as being registered in the bond register in the name of the Nominee, but may be registered in whatever name or names the Holder of the Bonds shall designate at that time, in accordance with paragraph 10. To the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the transferee by the Holders, in accordance with paragraph 10, the Bonds will be delivered to the Beneficial Owners. (iii) Nothing in this subparagraph (d) shall limit or restrict the provisions of paragraph 10. (d) Letter of Representations. The provisions in the Letter of Representations are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of the resolution, and if and to the extent any such provisions are inconsistent with the other provisions of this resolution, the provisions in the Letter of Representations shall control. 3. Purpose. The Bonds shall provide funds to finance the Improvements. The total cost of the Improvements, which shall include all costs enumerated in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65, is estimated to be at least equal to the amount of the Bonds. Work on the Improvements shall proceed with due diligence to completion. The City covenants that it shall do all things and perform all acts required of it to assure that work on the Improvements proceeds with due diligence to completion and that any and all permits and studies required under law for the Improvements are obtained. 4. Interest. The Bonds shall bear interest payable semiannually on February 1 and August 1 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing August 1, 2025, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, at the respective rates per annum set forth opposite the maturity years as follows: Maturity Year Interest Rate 2026 % 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 2035 Page 61 of 104 134994379v1 6 5. Redemption. All Bonds maturing on February 1, 2034, and thereafter shall be subject to redemption and prepayment at the option of the City on February 1, 2033, and on any date thereafter at a price of par plus accrued interest. Redemption may be in whole or in part of the Bonds subject to prepayment. If redemption is in part, the maturities and the principal amounts within each maturity to be redeemed shall be determined by the City and if only part of the Bonds having a common maturity date are called for prepayment, the specific Bonds to be prepaid shall be chosen by lot by the Registrar. Bonds or portions thereof called for redemption shall be due and payable on the redemption date, and interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after the redemption date. Mailed notice of redemption shall be given to the paying agent and to each affected registered holder of the Bonds not more than sixty (60) days and not fewer than thirty (30) days prior to the date fixed for redemption. To effect a partial redemption of Bonds having a common maturity date, the Registrar prior to giving notice of redemption shall assign to each Bond having a common maturity date a distinctive number for each $5,000 of the principal amount of such Bond. The Registrar shall then select by lot, using such method of selection as it shall deem proper in its discretion, from the numbers so assigned to the Bonds, as many numbers as, at $5,000 for each number, shall equal the principal amount of the Bonds to be redeemed. The Bonds to be redeemed shall be the Bonds to which were assigned numbers so selected; provided, however, that only so much of the principal amount of each Bond of a denomination of more than $5,000 shall be redeemed as shall equal $5,000 for each number assigned to it and so selected. If a Bond is to be redeemed only in part, it shall be surrendered to the Registrar (with, if the City or Registrar so requires, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the City and Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or the Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing) and the City shall execute (if necessary) and the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of the Bond, without service charge, a new Bond or Bonds having the same stated maturity and interest rate and of any Authorized Denomination or Denominations, as requested by the Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Bond so surrendered. 6.

Page 68 of 104 134994379v1 13 All Bonds delivered in exchange for or upon transfer of Bonds shall be valid general obligations of the City evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this resolution, as the Bonds surrendered for such exchange or transfer. Every Bond presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly endorsed or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Bond Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his, her or its attorney duly authorized in writing The Bond Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection with the transfer or exchange of any Bond and any legal or unusual costs regarding transfers and lost Bonds. Transfers shall also be subject to reasonable regulations of the City contained in any agreement with the Bond Registrar, including regulations which permit the Bond Registrar to close its transfer books between record dates and payment dates. The Finance Director is hereby authorized to negotiate and execute the terms of said agreement. 11. Rights Upon Transfer or Exchange.

Any such interest not so timely paid shall cease to be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof as of the Regular Record Date, and shall be payable to the person who is the Holder thereof at the close of business on a date (the "Special Record Date") fixed by the Bond Registrar whenever money becomes available for payment of the defaulted interest. Notice of the Special Record Date shall be given by the Bond Registrar to the Holders not less than ten days prior to the Special Record Date. 13. Treatment of Registered Owner. The City and Bond Registrar may treat the person in whose name any Bond is registered as the owner of such Bond for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and premium, if any, and interest (subject to the payment provisions in paragraph 12) on, such Bond and for all other purposes whatsoever whether or not such Bond shall be overdue, and neither the City nor the Bond Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 14.

The Bonds when so prepared and executed shall be delivered by the Finance Director to the Purchaser upon receipt of the purchase price, and the Purchaser shall not be obliged to see to the proper application thereof. 15. Fund and Accounts. There is hereby created a special fund to be designated the "General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 2024A Fund" (the "Fund") to be administered and maintained by the Finance Director as a bookkeeping account separate and apart from all other funds maintained in the official financial records of the City. The Fund shall be maintained Page 69 of 104 134994379v1 14 in the manner herein specified until all of the Bonds and the interest thereon have been fully paid. There shall be maintained in the Fund the "Construction Account" and "Debt Service Account": (a) Construction Account. To the Construction Account shall be credited the proceeds of the sale of the Bonds, less capitalized interest, plus any special assessments levied with respect to the Improvements and collected prior to completion of the Improvements and payment of the costs thereof. From the Construction Account there shall be paid all costs and expenses of making the Improvements, including the cost of any construction contracts heretofore let and all other costs incurred and to be incurred of the kind authorized in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.65; and the moneys in the Construction Account shall be used for no other purpose except as otherwise provided by law; provided that the proceeds of the Bonds may also be used to the extent necessary to pay interest on the Bonds due prior to the anticipated date of commencement of the receipt of the collection of taxes or special assessments herein levied or covenanted to be levied; and provided further that if upon completion of the Improvements there shall remain any unexpended balance in the Construction Account, the balance (other than any special assessments) may be transferred to the Debt Service Account or the fund of any other improvement instituted pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429, and provided further that any special assessments credited to the Construction Account shall only be applied towards payment of the costs of the Improvements upon adoption of a resolution by the City Council determining that the application of the special assessments for such purpose will not cause the City to no longer be in compliance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 1. (b) Debt Service Account. There are hereby irrevocably appropriated and pledged to, and there shall be credited to, the Debt Service Account: (i) capitalized interest in the amount of $______________ (together with interest earnings thereon and subject to such other adjustments as are appropriate) to provide sufficient funds to pay interest due on the Bonds on or before August 1, 2025; (ii) all collections of special assessments herein covenanted to be levied with respect to the Improvements and either initially credited to the Construction Account and not already spent a permitted above and required to pay any principal and interest due on the Bonds or collected subsequent to the completion of the Improvements and payment of the costs thereof; (iii) all collections of taxes herein or hereafter levied for the payment of the Bonds; (iv) all funds remaining in the Construction Account after completion of the Improvements and payment of the costs thereof; (v) all investment earnings on funds held in the Debt Service Account; and (vi) any and all other moneys which are properly available and are appropriated by the governing body of the City to the Debt Service Account. The amount of any surplus remaining in the Debt Service Account when the Bonds and interest thereon are paid shall be used consistent with Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 4. The Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the principal and interest and any premiums for redemption of the Bonds and any other general obligation bonds of the City hereafter issued by the City and made payable from the account as provided by law. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments, except (1) for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Bonds were issued and (2) in addition to the above in an amount not greater than the lesser of five percent of the proceeds of the Bonds or $100,000. To Page 70 of 104 134994379v1 15 this effect, any proceeds of the Bonds and any sums from time to time held in the Construction Account or Debt Service Account (or any other City account which will be used to pay principal or interest to become due on the bonds payable therefrom) in excess of amounts which under then applicable federal arbitrage regulations may be invested without regard to yield shall not be invested at a yield in excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by the arbitrage regulations on such investments after taking into account any applicable "temporary periods" or "minor portion" made available under the federal arbitrage regulations. Money in the Fund shall not be invested in obligations or deposits issued by, guaranteed by or insured by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof if and to the extent that such investment would cause the Bonds to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). 16. Special Assessments. It is hereby determined that no less than twenty percent (20%) of the cost to the City of each Improvement financed hereunder within the meaning of Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.58, Subdivision 1(3), shall be paid by special assessments to be levied against every assessable lot, piece and parcel of land benefited by any of the Improvements. The City hereby covenants and agrees that it will let all construction contracts not heretofore let within one year after ordering each Improvement financed hereunder unless the resolution ordering the Improvement specifies a different time limit for the letting of construction contracts. The City hereby further covenants and agrees that it will do and perform, as soon as they may be done, all acts and things necessary for the final and valid levy of such special assessments, and in the event that any such assessment be at any time held invalid with respect to any lot, piece or parcel of land due to any error, defect, or irregularity in any action or proceedings taken or to be taken by the City or the City Council or any of the City officers or employees, either in the making of the assessments or in the performance of any condition precedent thereto, the City and the City Council will forthwith do all further acts and take all further proceedings as may be required by law to make the assessments a valid and binding lien upon such property. The special assessments have heretofore been authorized. Subject to such adjustments as are required by conditions in existence at the time the special assessments are levied, it is hereby determined that the assessments shall be payable in equal, consecutive, annual installments, including both principal and interest, with interest at a rate per annum set forth below: Improvement Designation Levy Years Collection Years Amount Rate See Attached Schedule in Exhibit B At the time the special assessments are in fact levied the City Council shall, based on the then current estimated collections of the special assessments, make any adjustments in any ad valorem taxes required to be levied in order to assure that the City continues to be in compliance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 1. 17. Tax Levy. To provide moneys for payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds there is hereby levied upon all of the taxable property in the City a direct annual ad valorem tax which shall be spread upon the tax rolls and collected with and as part of other general property taxes in the City for the years and in the amounts as follows: Page 71 of 104 134994379v1 16 Year of Tax Levy Year of Tax Collection Amount See Attached Schedule in Exhibit B 18. Coverage Test. The tax levies are such that if collected in full they, together with estimated collections of special assessments and other revenues herein pledged for the payment of the Bonds, will produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Bonds. The tax levies shall be irrepealable so long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, provided that the City reserves the right and power to reduce the levies in the manner and to the extent permitted by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 3. 19. General Obligation Pledge. For the prompt and full payment of the principal and interest on the Bonds, as the same respectively become due, the full faith, credit and taxing powers of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt Service Account is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on the Bonds and any other bonds payable therefrom, the deficiency shall be promptly paid out of any other funds of the City which are available for such purpose, and such other funds may be reimbursed with or without interest from the Debt Service Account when a sufficient balance is available therein. 20. Defeasance. When all Bonds have been discharged as provided in this paragraph, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this resolution to the registered holders of the Bonds shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such deposit. The City may also discharge its obligations with respect to any prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they are prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full, provided that notice of redemption thereof has been duly given. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution qualified by law as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be required, without regard to sale and/or reinvestment, to pay all amounts to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date. 21. Compliance With Reimbursement Bond Regulations. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to establish and provide for the City's compliance with United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.150-2 (the "Reimbursement Regulations") applicable to the "reimbursement proceeds" of the Bonds, being those portions thereof which will be used by the City to reimburse itself for any expenditure which the City paid or will have paid prior to the Closing Date (a "Reimbursement Expenditure"). Page 72 of 104 134994379v1 17 The City hereby certifies and/or covenants as follows: (a) Not later than 60 days after the date of payment of a Reimbursement Expenditure, the City (or person designated to do so on behalf of the City) has made or will have made a written declaration of the City's official intent (a "Declaration") which effectively (i) states the City's reasonable expectation to reimburse itself for the payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure out of the proceeds of a subsequent borrowing; (ii) gives a general and functional description of the property, project or program to which the Declaration relates and for which the Reimbursement Expenditure is paid, or identifies a specific fund or account of the City and the general functional purpose thereof from which the Reimbursement Expenditure was to be paid (collectively the "Program"); and (iii) states the maximum principal amount of debt expected to be issued by the City for the purpose of financing the Program; provided, however, that no such Declaration shall necessarily have been made with respect to: (i) "preliminary expenditures" for the Program, defined in the Reimbursement Regulations to include engineering or architectural, surveying and soil testing expenses and similar prefatory costs, which in the aggregate do not exceed twenty percent of the "issue price" of the Bonds, and (ii) a de minimis amount of Reimbursement Expenditures not in excess of the lesser of $100,000 or five percent of the proceeds of the Bonds. (b) Each Reimbursement Expenditure is a capital expenditure or a cost of issuance of the Bonds or any of the other types of expenditures described in Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of the Reimbursement Regulations. (c) The "reimbursement allocation" described in the Reimbursement Regulations for each Reimbursement Expenditure shall and will be made forthwith following (but not prior to) the issuance of the Bonds, and not later than three years after the later of (i) the date of the payment of the Reimbursement Expenditure, or (ii) the date on which the Project to which the Reimbursement Expenditure relates is first placed in service. (d) Each such reimbursement allocation will be made in a writing that evidences the City's use of Bond proceeds to reimburse the Reimbursement Expenditure and, if made within 30 days after the Bonds are issued, shall be treated as made on the day the Bonds are issued. Provided, however, that the City may take action contrary to any of the foregoing covenants in this paragraph upon receipt of an opinion of its Bond Counsel for the Bonds stating in effect that such action will not impair the tax-exempt status of the Bonds. 22. Continuing Disclosure. The City is the sole obligated person with respect to the Bonds. The City hereby agrees, in accordance with the provisions of Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule"), promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a Continuing Disclosure Undertaking (the "Undertaking") hereinafter described to: (a) Provide or cause to be provided to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the "MSRB") by filing at www.emma.msrb.org in accordance with the Rule, certain annual financial information and operating data in accordance with the Undertaking.

Negative Covenant as to Use of Bond Proceeds and Improvements. The City hereby covenants not to use the proceeds of the Bonds or to use the Improvements, or to cause or permit them to be used, or to enter into any deferred payment arrangements for the cost of the Improvements, in such a manner as to cause the Bonds to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Sections 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code. 26.
