HomeMy WebLinkAbout05/05/1981 MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator RE: Non-Agenda Informational Items DATE: May 1 , 1981 1 . Mike Sortum called and asked that the final Hospital IR Bond Resolution be delayed until June 2 , 1981 . 2 . We expect to have material on the May 19 , 1981 agenda regarding the Bluff Avenue Utility Improvements and the Hauer Lateral Sanitary Sewer Improvements . We have had a successul second meeting with SPUC on the design of the Bluff Avenue project and only need to clarify the assessment procedures . The latter project requires that we finalize the appraiser' s estimates of benefits (it looks like there will be a problem) , revise estimates of project costs , and investiage the feasibility of constructing the laterals from the main to the homes . 3. Bill Fahey has not returned my calls this week so I don' t have an update on the Fiscal Disparities suit as requested by the Mayor. I have a third call in to him now. 4. The City Clerk is advertising for a public hearing on May 19 , 1981 for the 101 Watermain pursuant to Council Resolution No. 1812 adopted April 7 , 1981 (see SPUC Manager ' s memo attached) . 5. We have hired two new temporary part-time employees for budgeted positions . Diane Scheffler as the Work Study student replacing Danelle Nelson and Glen Heyda as a seasonal park maintenance man. 6 . Lou has been contacted by a representative for a UHF station that is looking for a Twin Cities studio. They are looking at the industrial park with the possibility of putting a small dish on top of our elevated tank. The contact was preliminary so if you have any problems with a small "radar like" dish on the new tower let me know Tuesday. 7 . Walt has asked staff to clarify the Community Services Program funding from the school to determine if any of it was grant money. We received $33,500 from the school with $25,723 of it levied by the school and $7 ,777 of it coming from the State as a grant. If the State grant were reduced or eliminated the Community Services Program would have to be cut accordingly. 8. Early in the year Ted Jaspers and City staff met several times to discuss his concern over the City not really paying 507 of the watermain loop that went in between Dakota and Minnesota Streets. We explained that the City paid 507 of all looping costs which included some in Minnesota. He did not seem satisfied but the issue seems to be dead. If the subjects comes up again, I will let you know otherwise we will drop it . -2- 9 . You might be interested in knowing that our Fire Department charges the Renaissance Festival $1 ,590 for 13 days of protection each year. The proceeds go in their own Volunteer Association accounts . 10. Attached is the Fund Balance Summary for the month ending March 31 , 1981 . If you have questions give Gregg a call , you will get this monthly. 11. Attached is a memo from Larry Martin suggesting that the one Staff car sitting at City Hall over night be taken home if possible. Don Steger, our new Planner, lives in town and could take it home according to our policy, but theolicy is somewhat unclear (see attached Resolution and Policy. Let me know Tuesday if you have a problem with Don taking the car home . 12 . Attached is a letter from Jack Coller regarding our inability to collect $400 in back rent . We don' t plan to pursue this . 13. Attached is a letter from Jack Coller regarding the piecemeal sale of the abandon Milwaukee Railroad R/W. Jack and I do not feel the City needs to require subdivision action. Contact me if you foresee problems . 14. Attached is a memo from Jim Karkanen regarding the current charges for snow removal .

Please be advised that, as of this date, they report that there are still 4 property owners who have not returned signed waiver forms. 6/7 Councilmembers : Because we do not have signed waivers from all property owners , it is necessary to hold a public hearing on the proposed watermain along 101.

Background: At present vehicle #205 is assigned to me. However, because I am not a City resident , the car remains behind City Hall overnight. I think this is a problem for 2 reasons: (1 ) Security and ( 2) maintenance. Problem #1 is self-explanatory. Problem #2 stems -from the multiple users of the car; cleanliness is the main area of concern. It is quite difficult to clean a car adequately in presentable office clothing during office hours. However, if the car would be taken home, it is only logical than an employee would take care of this matter in exchange for the privilege and I believe this would carry over into other maintenance aspects. Alternatives: I believe the solution would be to assign vehicle #205 to a department head who is a City resident to take the car home evenings. However, I would like #205 to remain under Assessing as it ' s principle user because of the extensive use the vehicle gets during the 25% re-inspection period. Recommendation: Assign #205 to a City resident Department Head to take home evenings and keep it assigned to Assessing during office hours.

Anderson, City Administrator Shakopee City Hall Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 Dear Mr. Anderson: In December, 1979 the Council by Resolution #1533 authorized the institution of a civil suit in Scott County Court against Donald B. Urness dba Don's Mobile Homes for back rent in the amount of $400. Mr. Urness rented the two rear rooms on the second floor of City Hall. Suit, was instituted but Mr. Urness dba Don's Mobile Homes filed bankruptcy. There are no assets, no possibility of collection and, while I don't think this suit should be dismissed, there will be no recovery so we may as well forget about it. Enclosed is a statement covering money advanced by me.and, for the time being, I am closing the file. Very truly yours, Julius A. Coller, II Shakopee City Attorney JAC/bpm 13 JULILS A.GOLLER, II JULIUS A.COLLER ATTORNEY AT LAW 612-445-1244 1859-1940 2 1 1 WEST FIRST AVENUE SIIAKOPEE, MINNESOTA 55329 April 10, 1981 Mr. John K. Anderson City Administrator City Hall Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 Dear Mr. Anderson: You and I have had some discussion about what steps the City should take concerning the abandoned right-of-way and subsequent sale thereof by the Milwaukee Railroad to the Farmington-Shakopee Association, INc. and resale by this corporation. Railroad abandoned their right-of-way through Chaska serveral years ago and I talked to Luke Melchert, City Attorney of Chaska, regarding this and he said the City has done nothing. It has just handled the various property acquisitions as they occurred and have considered that the vacated right-of-way now attaches to the abutting lots and blocks through which the right-of-way originally ran. This is much the situation that pervails in Shakopee because the plat of the original city was filed prior to the rail- road coming through. However, in the newer portions where the plat excluded the railroad the requirement of platting the abandoned right-of-way might be something to consider. I also talked to Mike McGuire at Prior Lake and he indicated that the matter was going before the Planning Commission but that the worst that they were considering would involve rezoning and platting of the entire right-of-way through Prior Lake. Lakeville was also contacted but I couldn't get any information from there and apparently there is nothing afoot for any action by Lakeville. This is understandable because as I recall the track went down the street in Lakeville, although I am not sure. Farmington is taking no action because the main facilities of the Milwaukee Road have not changed. The abandonment of the H & D division involves only a few hundred feet of track. So, it would seem any action by the City would only cover the area southeasterly of Block 203 in the City. If any further discussion of this matter would be helpful please call me.

Coller, II JAC/nh City Attorney ,0.,, CITY OF SHAKOPEE IV -`5, / 4-f it - . 129 East First Avenue, Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 : J<<�dAi�3t1i'` MEMO TO: John Anderson-Administrator • FROM: Jim Karkanen - Public Wnrk SUBJECT:Equipment rental rates DATE: 4-29-81 The State of Minnesota pays a maximum of 30 . 00 per hour for equipment rental for hauling snow on the Highway 101 R/W on First Ave. The State will contribute payment toward loading the snow if the City will truck it away. It is the States ' position that they will be responsible for the center 48 ' fo the R/W, while the City is responsible for the parking lanes and sidewalk snow deposit. For this reason, the State considers removing snow on First Ave. as a joint venture, rather than doing it for them as a contract. ) Two years ago, we proposed a higher rate to the State for equipment rental than was offered, they refused to pay the higher rate because it exceeded the payment made to other communities. We then had to offer a rental rate which was consistent with payment made to surrounding communities . At present, we are paid $30. 00 per hour for the grader and loader while loading snow. We have, however, found ourselves to be liberal with time spent loading snow for the State of Minnesota. Chaska 27 . 50 per hour Grader 30 . 00 im uloader .

The Board positions that expire June, 1981 , are: John Fedo, Mayor, Duluth; Orvil Johnson, City Manager, Mendota Heights; Ken Yager, Mayor, Minnetonka; Steven Perkins, Mayor, Pipestone. The officers of the League of Minnesota Cities, the President and Vice-President, are elected annually. Those positions are now filled by: Mayor George Latimer of St. Paul as President. Mayor Latimer assumed the presidency in January of 1980, due to the resignation of D. J. Black, Mayor of Hutchinson. Mayor Vaughn Thorfinnson, Vice-President assumed the vice-presidency in January, after Mayor Latimer assumed the presidency. The Nominating Committee will work with the guidelines for Board representation, which were developed as a result of the deliberations of past nominating committees. Those guidelines appear on the reverse side of this letter. Enclosed, also, is a listing of present board members and officers of the League. The Nominating Committee has scheduled a meeting for May 28th and it would be helpful to have your input. If you know of a city official who would be considered for nomination, please give his or her name and a brief resume of qualifications to the League staff or us. This communication can be as informal as you wish, a phone call is all that is needed. Our goal is to make sure that any good candidate is considered. Whether or not to let an individual know that you are submitting his or her name, is, of course, up to you. The Nominating Committee, however, makes it a practice to confirm the fact that an individual is willing to serve before presenting his or her name to the Annual Conference, On behalf of the Nominating Committee, I wish to thank you in advance for your help and to assure you that all suggeYi'ns will be seriously considered. Sincerely, Bob Anderson, Councilmember, International Falls, Chairman, Nominating Committee RA:HMS:cmt (OVER) Encl : 300 hanover building, 480 cedar street, saint paul, minnesota 55101 C6123222-2861 Page 2 GUIDELINES 1 . Geographic and Population Size Representation There has been a conscious effort to see that different parts of the state are represented on the Board, as well as the different sizes of cities that are among the League's constituency. 2. Twin Cities Area/Outstate Balance While there are no specific seats on the Board reserved for Twin Cities area or outstate members, it has been a consistent practice to maintain a rough balance of Board members from these areas. 3. Elected/Appointed Balance Traditionally both elected and appointed municipal officials have participated in all aspects of the League's activities, including membership in the Board of Directors. Although no specific number of seats on the Board are reserved for elected as distinct from appointed officials, it as been a consistent practice to have a majority of the Board composed of elected officials. Furthermore, there has been some effort to provide an opportunity for a variety of appointed officials (e.g. , clerks, city managers, attorneys, assessors, etc. ) to serve on the Board. 4. Rotation of Membership In view of the fact that the League has more than 750 member cities any individual who serves a full term on the Board is not normally considered for another Board term. However, persons with Board experience are often considered as potential officers.

There has not been a bill introduced in either the House of Representatives or the Senate which would allow the sale of wine in grocery stores . Although this subject has been receiving quite a bit of publicity , no bill has ever been presented . H . F. 1288 , which would establish one class of beer , had been introduced in the House of Representatives . Unfortunate- ly , a hearing date was not scheduled for this bill and because the deadline for hearing bills in committee has passed , no further action will be taken on this piece of legislation .

City Administrator John Anderson and City Engineer Bo Spurrier arrived to discuss the BluffAvenue Watermain Project between Dakota and Halo 1st. Addition. The City Engineer presented a memo on the subject. A discussion followed. The City Engineer stated that a 4-plea_ building pxoperlycanstructed could be built in 'this 'area.withottt pittting' in a cross-tie 'from First Avenue to;Bluff 'ori Prairie. Street, but that a 6-plex would be cost prohibitive without the cross-tie. Specific numbers were: 800 GPM available with the proposed 8 inch main connected at both ends to the existing watermains at the corner of Bluff and Dakota, and at the West line of Halo 1st. Addition. With the addition of the cross-tie between Bluff and 1st. Avenue there would be 1,500 GPM available. It was emphasized that these flows were calculated to be available during maximum water usage on the system. After the discussion the consensus of the Commission was that they would stay with their previous position. The City Engineer was asked if he felt that the construction of a watermain to supply the 800 GPM figure was workable. He stated that it was, as long as the fact that it was 800 GPM was brought out at the public hearing. SII l The consensus of the Commission was that if the City Engineer will certify that 800 GPM will be available, and if development in the area requires no more water than 800 GPM, then this is what they will approve.

Anderson, City Admr. Perusich/Vierling moved to approve the minutes of March 21, 1981 as kept. Motion carried unanimously. Public Hearing - Strehlow Conditional Use Permit (PC 81-8C): Koehnen/Rockne moved to open the public hearing on the conditional use permit request for a nursery school in basement apartment section of home. Motion carried unanimously. The City Planner informed the Commission that the applicant was present and that the location of the home is 3059 Hauer Trail, and that the nursery school is intended for 15-20 children. The applicant stated the nursery school would be operated with the Shakopee school schedule. John Nelson, 3043 Hauer Trail, asked if this wasn't turning a residential area into commercial business. The City Planner read the ordinance allowing this type of busi- ness in a residential area. Mr. Nelson commented that allowing a business in a re- sidential area seemed to be against what the City is trying to do to revitalize its downtown area. He also inquired about tax structure in this case. The City Admr. answered that from his experience he has seen homeowners who have lost their homestead credit for that portion of the home used for the business. Mrs. Gene Hauer asked if 20 children would always be the limit allowed in the home. The applicant explained that State rules required one adult for every 10 children, and Chrm. Schmitt related that the ordinance allowed only one outside adult teacher, so therefore 20 would be the limit of the number of children. Mr. Gene Hauer asked about the time period for the CUP, and Chrm. Schmitt stated that some previously approved Conditional Use Permits were required to be renewed every year for the first three years, with an extended period after that if no problems arose. Coller/Vierling moved to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Coller/Rockne offered Conditional Use Permit No. Resolution No. 271 to operate a nursery school in an R-2 Zone, and moved for its adoption, subject to the following: 1. The operation be conducted entirely within the lower level of the existing building. 2. Only one person from outside the dwelling unit be employed. 3. No exterior sign be used. 4. The enrollment and hours of operation be limited to 9:00 a.m. to Noon, Monday through Thursday. 5. The nursery school be licensed by the State of Minnesota prior to operation. 6. The maximum number of students is 20. 7. The conditional use be reviewed after qne year in operation. Motion carried unanimously. Shakopee Planning Commission April 9, 1981 Page 2 Public Hearing - Preliminary and Final Plat, Link's 3rd Addition (PC 81-5P) Rockne/Perusich moved to open the public hearing on the preliminary and final plat of Link's '3rd Addition. Motion carried unanimously. The City Planner explained that this plat consists of the replatting of four vacant lots to provide realignment and to incorporate the vacated Prairie Street. A clari- fication was made on the request for common utility trenches, with individual utility lines. The applicant was present and stated he was in agreement with all of the conditions outlined except for the postponed construction agreement for a sidewalk; he would like to put the sidewalk in right away rather than waiting with it. The City Admr. stated the long term effect of putting in a sidewalk now could be ex- plored between now and the City Council meeting at which this will be presented. LeRoy Weiers asked for clarification of the placement of the sidewalk and was answered that it would only be placed in front of this property being platted. Koehnen/Stoltzman moved to recommend to the City Council Preliminary and Final Plat approval of Link's 3rd Addition, subject to the following conditions: 1) Favorable Title Opinion by the City Attorney; 2) Common (shared) utility trenches be used to minimize street cuts (i.e. one trench per each duplex structure) ; 3) Removal of existing garage at the rear of Lots 3 and 4, prior to the issuance of a Building Permit on these lots; 4+) Execution of a Developer's Agreement to contain: a) New curbing shall be installed between Lot 5, Block 13 of East Shakopee and Lot 1, Block 1 of Link's 3rd Addition, so as to match with existing curb; b) Sidewalk be installed along 4th Avenue. Motion carried unanimously. Public Hearing - Preliminary and Final Plat of Case 1st Addition - J.I. Case Company (PC 81-6P) Coller/Vierling moved to open the public hearing on the preliminary and final plat of Case 1st Addition. Motion carried unanimously. The City Planner explained that the use of this property has already been determined, and this hearing is only for approval of the plat. The applicant was represented and had no problem with the conditions as outlined. Coller/Perusich moved to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Coller/Stoltzman moved to recommend to the City Council Preliminary and Final Plat approval of Case 1st Addition, subject to the following conditions: 1) Favorable Title Opinion by the City Attorney; 2) Park dedication be in cash; 3) Plat's name be designated as Case 1st Addition; 4) Execution of a Developer's Agreement to contain: a) City Engineer's approval of the drainage plan 5) That all conditions of the previously approved Conditional Use Permit Resolution No. 268, remain in effect: " Shakopee Planning Commission April 9, 1981 Page 3 a) Submission of a dust control plan subject to approval of the City Engineer b) Verification of the structural capacity of the sanitary sewer for parking and loading c) Specific designation of the exterior storage area screened in accordance with the ordinance Motion carried unanimously Public Hearing - Sullivan/O'Sickey Conditional Use Permit (PC 81-9C): Perusich/Vierling moved to open the public hearing for a request for a Conditional Use Permit for the operation of a game room center in a B-3 (Central Business) Zone. Motion carried unanimously. The City Planner elaborated that this proposed game room would be located in the former Ben Franklin building, located at 112 Lewis and the proposed use will be primarily teenagers. The Planner presented several concerns, foremost of which was lack of provision for bicycles and the noise and litter effects on surrounding businesses and residences. The owners stated they would be hiring supervisors and did not foresee themselves as being actively involved in supervision. They also stated they expected a maximum of 50 patrons. They explained their idea of providing bicycle racks in a 3 foot area at the rear of the building. Comm. Coller expressed his concern for the safety of patrons using these bicycle racks because of the limited access to the building, and the requirement of keeping the sidewalk clear for pedestrians. He asked if George Muenchow had reviewed the application regarding traffic and patrons. City Planner stated he had forwarded it to him, and had received nothing back. Clarence Engh stated he was the owner of the Kopp building and Shakopee Floral, which will be vacated, and he is concerned with the attitude of the kids in that building and how it will affect tenants in his building. Cindy Anderson, manager of the VFW, expressed her concern about bicycles, litter and vandalism and the close proximity of juveniles to the VFW. She also stated that she understood the easement between the two buildings belonged to the VFW. Wally Perry suggested that if one parking space was eliminated for vehicles and re- stricted to bicycles, it amounted to private parking for the business, and if it was done for one business, other businesses would have a right to request it. Another member of the audience said he didn't believe this was the best type of traf- fic to put in the downtown business district. He expressed his concern with having youngsters arouni during hours when the other downtown businesses were closed. Harry Rolflect explained he was with the police department, and based on his experience as a juvenile officer, he just couldn't see that it would be an asset to the downtown area or to the tax payers of the community in terms of police service. Considerable similar discussion took place. Coller/Vierling moved to close the public 'hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Proceedings of the April 9, 1981 Shakopee Planning Commission Page -4- Coller/Vierling moved to deny Conditional Use Permit Resolution No. 272, the granting of a game room center in a B-3 Zone, based on Shakopee City Code Section 11.01., Subd. A, Items No. 1 and 9, which state: Item No. 1. That the conditional use will not be injurious to the use and _ enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purpose already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within the immediate vicinity. Item No. 9. The use will not cause traffic hazard or congestion. Chrm. Schmitt informed the Commissioners that if they voted to disapprove, the deci- sion could be appealed to the City Council and then the Commission will not see the application again, unless the Council referred it back. The City Planner read the list of considerations for Conditional Use Permit. Comm. Rockne left at this point, 9:05 p.m. Roll Call: Ayes; Koehnen, Vierling, Stoltzman, Coller Noes; Schmitt, Perusich Motion carried (Conditional Use Permit Resolution No. 272 denied) Chrm. Schmitt informed the applicants that they have a right to appeal within 7 days by notification to the City, at which time it will be placed on the City Council agenda, and they have a right to be heard again at that time. Coller/Koehnen moved that staff be directed to summarize and put on record should the application be appealed that the maximum occupancy of 50 persons be identified, and that the bicycle parking be addressed, and that a 6 month renewal be recommended in- stead of one year, in addition to the recommendations presented by staff. Motion carried unanimously. Coller/Koehnen moved to have the license checked and to investigate the business of game machines which operates in the back of the Eagle Pet Shop to see if it conforms to the ordinance, and that necessary steps be taken to bring it into compliance. Motion carried unanimously. Public Hearing - Amending City Code, Section 4.30 - Sign Ordinance Vierling/Perusich moved to open the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Chrm. Schmitt asked for comments from the audience, and there were none. Perusich/Vierling moved to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Coller/Stoltzman moved to recommend to City Council the adoption of the newly revised Sign Ordinance with the changes presented this evening. Motion carried unanimously. Public Hearing - Amending City Code, Section 11.24, Subd. 3 - Height Limitations Coller/Vierling moved to open the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. The Commission clarified the fact that the intent of using the word "structures" was to include the new height limitations. Chrm. Schmitt asked for comments from the audience, and there was none. Proceedings of the April 9, 1981 2- Shakopee Shakopee Planning Commission Page -5- Coller/Vierling moved to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Koehnen/Perusich moved to recommend to the City Council adoption of an. ordinance which will amend the Zoning Ordinance regarding height limitations. Motion carried unanimously. • A & G 1st Addition - Request for Extension of Final Plat Application: Coller/Perusich moved to remove the request for final plat extension for A & G 1st Addition from the table. Motion carried unanimously. The City Planner explained the circumstances which led to the delay of filing final plat application for the A & G 1st Addition. Coller/Perusich moved that an extension for final plat application be granted to July 17, 1981 for A & G First Addition. Motion carried unanimously. Coller moved that a Planning Commission policy be established that extensions for Final Plat applications shall only be approved when delays are unique to the plat and/or are due to legal transactions. Requests for extensions will be reviewed on an indi- vidual plat-by-plat basis, and shall be filed prior to the expiration of the Prelimi- nary Plat one-year time frame; and that this policy be put on file in the Planning Commission's administrative guide book. The motion failed for lack of a second. Horizon Heights 4th Addition - Discussion: The City Planner presented the preliminary sketch plan and stated his main concerns were that a few of the lots were under 2.5 acres, and that the grading on many of the roads seemed too steep. He relayed that the City Engineer thought that with re-design- ing, the developer could work with the topography a lot better and also work with sub- standard lots. Comm. Coller asked if Horizon Drive was over the gas line, and the applicant answered that it was and that he had submitted the plat to the gas company and hadn't heard anything back. He also has clearance from County for ingress and egress on the pro- posed County road. He stated the County doesn' t plan to have the road done until 1983, and this development is probably 2-4 years away. Chrm. Schmitt recommended this sketch go to the City Engineer to work with the appli- cant's engineer on the grades of the road, as the overall concept plan is good. Extension of Austin Street - Discussion: The City Planner stated the City Engineer does not recommend the extension of Austin Street because of the expense of bridging the Upper Valley Drainage Area. The Engi- neer would be in favor of ending Austin Street with a bubble, and maybe shifting it into the lots. Gene Hauer , Developer, suggested a cul-de-sac east of Davis Court. Chrm. Schmitt asked the City Planner how he felt about individual locked-in neighbor- hoods, and the Planner responded that would be preferable to isolate neighborhoods, rather than put a road through them. It is better that they are ringed rather than bisected by traffic. Coller/Perusich moved that for concept purposes, Austin Street be planned to not go through. Motion carried unanimously. Proceedings of the April 9, 1981 - Shakopee Planning Commission Page -6- Kmart Retail Store (Garden Sales in Parking Lot) - Discussion: Discussion was held on the request made by the Kmart Retail Store, Minnesota Valley Mall, for a temporary garden sales center in an area of their parking lot. Don Schniepp, Assistant Manager, was present and explained that they had the garden sales set up if any of the Commissioners wanted to look at it. They didn't know if any type of permit was required for this type of sales lot. Coller/Perusich moved that operations such as the Kmart garden center not be required to obtain a Conditional Use Permit because they are an intregal component of such business and temporary in duration. It is also recommended that staff be instructed to monitor over the next two months the operation and make recommendations so we can Address it next year. Motion carried unanimously. Scottland, Inc. , Sewer Flows - Discussion: Coller/Stoltzman moved to concur with the City Council action of March 24, 1981, to designate two 75 acre areas of VIP, Ltd. , property as, Moratorium Alternative Areas ''X" and "Y" on the City's 1980-90 Comprehensive Plan Sewer Map. Other Business: Bob Schilz, 931 Bluff Avenue, initiated discussion on the re-zoning of his business. He explained that when he bought there, it was commercial, and then later was changed to R-3 and he had no knowledge of it being done. He is paying commercial rates, and feels he should be re-zoned commercial. He is especially concerned with the negative aspects if he wishes to sell the business. After some discussion, Comm. Coller recommended the item be placed on the May 14th agenda thus allowing time for staff to check files for dates and pertinent information on this rezoning . ,He also stated that if Mr. Schilz could have the backing of his neighbors, it would be helpful. The City A.dmr. explained some of the problems the staff is having in coordinating agendas for City Council and Planning Commission, and asked if the Commissioners would consider meeting on a Monday or Wednesday night instead. Comm. Coller suggested the A.dmr. lay out a schematic on a calendar to point out the problems that are occurring and bring it back next meeting. Coller/Stoltzman moved to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 11:00 p.m. John Schmitt Chairman Diane S.

Also present were Rod Krass, Ass' t City Attorney; Jeanne Andre, HRA Director; Mayor Harbeck and John K. Anderson, City Admr. Colligan/Lebens moved to accept the special meeting call. Motion carried unanimously. Colligan/Lebens moved to approve the minutes of April 7, 1981 as kept. Motion carried unanimously. Comm. Reinke arrived and took his seat at 7:17 P.M. The HRA Director informed the Commissioners that the two companies authorized to con- struct the six additional units in Macey 2nd Add'n were contacted and are willing to execute agreements with the HRA to construct units as proposed and selected by HRA. Discussion ensued in which it was the consensus that the contracts be drawn up and brought back before this body before they were executed. The HRA Director was given direction to include detailed clauses regarding water and utility connections, fill, pre-start and after-start delays in construction or sale, letters of credit costs and allowance of reduction if only one unit is sold, etc. The HRA Director was requested to have the completed contracts sent to the members as soon as possible, and it was anticipated meeting May 5, 1981 to consider them.

Chrm. Hullander explained that the newspaper ad announcing the Open House for the Senior Citizens Multipurpose Center was not in the paper last week because the manage- ment company told the newspaper not to print it. In investigating, Chrm. Hullander was informed that apparently the management company believed they were having some problems and couldn't hold the Open House as scheduled. Chrm. Hullander stated he couldn' t understand why the newspaper pulled the ad on the request of the management company, when the City was paying for it. He questioned Roger Linehan, Editor, who stated he had nothing to do with the ad, but he was told Gail Sovell said not to use the ad and the paper didn' t. Reinke/Leroux moved to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 7:35 P.M. Jeanne Andre HRA Director Diane S. Beuch Recording Secretary MEMO TO: Members of the Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) FROM: Jeanne Andre , Executive Director RE: Establishing Value of Lots in Macey Second Addition DATE: April 24, 1981 Introduction The HRA should establish value for lots in Macey Second Addition to be developed in 1981 . Background Information The actual value of the lots created in Macey Second Addition will not be used in establishing the price of homes sold under the Shakopee 235 Homeownership Program. However , the HRA has created a Promissory Note requiring the home purchasers to repay the Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority an amount equal to the lot value (or a proportion thereof) if the home is sold within five years of the date of purchase . Therefore we must establish a value for each lot to be used in the Promissory Note. Based on the recommendation of LeRoy Houser, Shakopee Building Inspector, I recommend that a price of approximately $1 . 25 per square foot be used to establish a value for the lots on which buildings are now scheduled for construction. Applying that rate to each lot and leveling the price off, I recommend the establishment of the following prices for the lots in Macey Second Addition: Lot 11 , Block 2 $15 ,000 Lot 6 , Block 3 7 ,200 Lot 7 , Block 3 7 ,200 Lot 8 , Block 3 7 ,200 Lot 9 , Block 3 7 ,200 Lot 10, Block 3 11 ,600 Recommended Action Adopt Resolutions 81-1 through 81-6 establishing the above lot values (copy of 81-1 enclosed as sample) . JA/jms RESOLUTION NO. 81-1 A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING HRA OFFICIALS TO ENTER INTO PROMISORY NOTE AND SECOND REAL ESTATE MORTGAGE FOR PAYMENT OF LOT VALUE UPON RESALE BY HOMEBUYER FOR LOT 11 BLOCK 2 , MACEY SECOND ADDITION WHEREAS , the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Shakopee , with the assistance of a Community Development Block Grant , is able to provide lots at no cost to qualified low- and moderate-income families in its Fourth and Minnesota Neighborhood Revitalization Project ; and WHEREAS , the Authority, in the administration of this program, would like to encourage sale to families who plan to homestead and improve the property over an extended period ; and WHEREAS , this goal can be encouraged by the execution of a "Promissory Note for Payment of Lot Value upon Resale by Homeowner" and a Second Real Estate Mortgage between the homebuyer and the Authority; NON, THEREFORE , BE IT RESOLVED, that the Housing and Redevelop- ment Authority in and for the City of Shakopee hereby authorizes and directs the appropriate officials to execute such a promissory note and second real estate mortgage in the amount of $15 ,000 with a buyer selected to purchase Lot 11 , Block 2 of Macey Second Addition. Adopted in adjourned special session of the Housing and Redevelop- ment Authority in and for the City of Shakopee held this day of , 1980. Chairman ATTEST: Executive Director 4b MEMO TO: Members of the Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) FROM: Jeanne Andre, Executive Director RE: Format for Contract-for-Deed Lots in Macey Second Addition DATE: May 5 , 1981 Introduction This memo is to serve as an update to the previous memo distributed with the agenda for the May 5 , 1981 meeting of the HRA. Samples of contract-for-deed format were attached to that memo. Background When the Invitation for Proposals for homes to be built in Phase II of construction in Macey Second Addition was advertised , contractors were informed that copies of the contract format would be provided on request. At its April 21 , 1981 meeting the HRA requested certain changes to the standard contract previously adopted. In line with the initial advertisement , attempts have been made to inform the selected contractors of potential changes . Sharon Goodwin, Treasurer of Goodwin Builders , Inc. , has objected to one new provision in the revised contract format . The objection is with the last two sentences of provision number 5 of the "Exhibit A" , calling for a 92 day delay in the release of the letter of credit . Ms . Goodwin' s objection to the delay in releasing the letter of credit is based on the fact that the contractor is required to present sworn lien waivers at the time the mortgages are closed. The City Attorney, subsequent to his dis- cussion with Ms . Goodwin, recommends that the last two sentences of provision number 5 be removed and the following two sentences be introduced in place of the removed sentences : After construction has been completed and the closing has taken place the letter of credit may be reduced to $10,000 and is to remain at that figure for the next 92 days and if no claim has been filed at the expiration of said 92 days the letter of credit can be released . In case of twin homes , one half the full letter of credit may be reduced to $10,000 which is to remain at that figure for the next 92 days and if no claim has been filed within the 92 days , the letter of credit can be released. Requested Action If the Commissioners are in agreement to Exhibit A, the amended contract-for-deed format can be adopted and placed on file as document No. 5 of the HRA Executive Director ' s Official Record of Documents . • JA/jms • Mr. 0"Conner would like the Council to consider requesting the Metro Transit Commission to consider changing their rout within Shakopee which would better accommodate the residents at the High Rise . Because there is not now any crossing for the citizens of this facility to cross the first avenue and promisses that have been made have not come to pass as yet . i I i I4 / ,,, . , ,___‘ __ .. _ ... , i 5-t- Ls ),_____„s) ._ , 4 -1. ,g O 'Ni, ,e QJ O I t J li LO i of?iy ji„ MllIllimm �J 4, . - p U ) .-----;)--- ---i--) - P 1- ./Ld-- /.Y CITY OF SHAKOPEE INCORPORATED 1870 t'.a, 129 E.

Background Negotiations with Goodwin Builders , Inc . and Pomije Custom Homes , Inc . were reported at the April 21 , 1981 meeting of the HRA; both builders are willing to construct homes as proposed and selected by the HRA. Commissioners requested that a copy of the contract to be executed be presented to the HRA for approval . Attached are contract drafts which have been prepared according to the format approved in 1980, with a few modifications . Exhibit A was changed in the following manner: 1 ) additions and modifications to terms 5 , 8, and 9 , and 2) provision of new terms 12 , 13 , 14, 15 and 16 . The HUD Community Development Representative has informed me that it is likely the HUD single family division will be able to make special provision for the reservation of 235 mortgage finance funds for the six units scheduled for construction phase II in Macey Second Addition if these units are submitted for appraisals quickly. A further update on this information will be available at the meet- ing. Recommended Action 1 . The HRA review and approve the contract format . 2 . Authorize appropriate HRA officials to execute contracts-for- deed for the following. a.

In addition, the district is eligible to receive state funds for the same purpose. To be eligible for the levy authority and state funding, the school board is required by M.S. 275.125, Subd. 8, Clause 3 to invite all govern- mental bodies located within district boundaries to meet and discuss "methods of increasing mutual cooperation between such bodies and the school board of such district." The school board is considering June 15, 1981 as a possible meeting date for that purpose. The meeting would be held in the school district Board Room and would commence at 7:30 p.m. I thought it might also serve as an opportunity for the school board, the city council and the community services board to meet together to discuss informally any concerns that might exist with respect to the com- munity services program. Prior to the time that I contact the township officers, I thought I should check with you to see if the council, would he interestedin attend- ing such a meeting and if the June 15 date is acceptable. I would appreciate it if you could let me know, at your earliest con- venience, the council's reaction to this meeting. We could then set up a joint agenda. Thanks, John.

Gentlemen: It has come to our attention via our staff that the Scott County HRA is again receiving a number of calls regarding problems in the Clifton Apartments. The majority of tenants who have called are concerned about a lack of response from their management firm in the areas of re-examination of income/assets (this is done to insure timely re-leasing) and maintenance problems. In the past week alone there have been about 8-10 such calls. Each time tenants have requested phone numbers of persons they could contact at the HUD Area Office in order to complain to a higher authority. The Board of Commissioners of the Scott County HRA wishes to share its concerns in this matter in hopes that you may attempt to resolve this continuing problem by contacting Realty Management Services, since, as you are aware, we have no jurisdiction over this housing project.

Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Jeanne Andre , Administrative Assistant RE: Cable Communications Consultant DATE: April 30, 1981 At the April 28 , 1981 , meeting of the City Council , the Council moved to hire Anita Benda and CTIC Associates , Inc . as technical consultants in the cable communications franchise process . A limit of $6000 per proposal evaluated and $2000 for advance work on the Request for Proposals was established. It was also stipu- lated that payment for use of CTIC forms in the RFP was not to be made . Ms . Benda would like to discuss with the Council the scope of work anticipated and the stipulation regarding payment for the use of forms prior to entering a contractual agreement , so she has been invited to make a presentation to the City Council . Members of the Ad Hoc Cable Communications Committe have been informed of her presentation and may be in attendance at the meeting. JA/jms MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator RE: Leudloff Sewer Claim DATE: May 1 , 1981 Introduction City Council , at its April 21 , 1981 meeting, received the above claim and instructed City Staff to meet with the Leudloff ' s to arrive at a settlement . Meeting On April 27 , 1981 Jim Karkenan and I met with the Leudloff ' s to discuss their claim. After explaining what we felt the City was responsible for, we asked the Leudloff ' s to submit their claim, in writing, with copies of all checks , etc. Their claim is attached . Scheduled Repairs The City has scheduled the installation of the required man holes here and on Fuller at $350 in materials and 50 hours in labor (City crew) . The money is budgeted for 1981 under utility system maintenance in the sewer budget . Summary & Recommendation Jim Karkanen and I feel that the 4 hours in S & W Plumbing time "over the main" equalling $457 . 95 is on the high side , however, it is difficult to nail down and we recommend approval of the claim. The next two items are similar to Mrs . Egan' s claims earlier this year, and two of the last three items (the permit fee is deducted from the total) were costs the Leudloff ' s incurred and feel should be reimbursed. Staff recommends paying the total claim of $723. 95 . Our insurance company will cover a portion of the property damage expenses , but not the $457 . 95 maintenance item. Council can, of course , drop any item(s) from the list if it feels they do not qualify for reimbursement . Action Requested Authorize a payment of $723. 95 to the Luedloff ' s for sewer damages , said payment to come from the Sewer Fund.

Anderson, City Administrator RE: Block #57 Parking Lot Acquisition St . Francis Hospital DATE: May 1 , 1981 Introduction City Council , at its regular April 21 , 1981 meeting, encouraged the hospital to proceed with it ' s proposed parking lot construc- tion to provide interim parking facilities until a City lot was constructed. Problem St . Francis Hospital would like to proceed with the interim parking plan; however, the hospital must know if the City will in turn be purchasing the land at its "parking lot" value or at the cost St . Francis incurred to acquire and construct the lot. St. Francis would like to have the City purchase the land and reimburse them for their costs which are outlined in the attached letter. Please note that some of the costs are esti- mated and that St. Francis is looking for a commitment from the City to reimburse them for actual costs . Alternatives 1 . Make no commitment . 2 . Make a commitment to cover the actual expense for acquisition, (FMV estimate for the Meyer property) , development , adminis- tration costs and other costs . 3. Make a qualified commitment covering the item in alternative #2. Recommendation After reviewing the letter with Rod Krass , we recommend alterna- tive #2 with a change in the method of arriving at a value on the Meyer property. If necessary, Rod recommends that a 3rd appraiser be hired as an arbitrator, that the three sit as a panel to hear the facts , write independent values and then open the values and average the closest two. Requested Action Pass a formal motion agreeing to reimburse St . Francis Hospital for acquisition (FMV estimate for the Meyer property using a 3rd appraiser if necessary) , development , adminstration and other verified costs when the City acquires hospital properties in block #57 for construction of a parking lot . JKA/jms 4°111117111Nihr A St.Francis Hospital 325 WEST FIFTH AVENUE/SHAKOPEE,MINNESOTA 55379/(612)445-2322 April 29, 1981 Mr. John K. Anderson City Administrator City of Shakopee 129 East First Avenue Shakopee, MN 55379 Dear John: At their April 21 , 1981 meeting, the City Council directed City Staff to work toward an agreement with the Hospital and the County for redevelopment of Block 57 for parking. The target date for finalizing this agreement was September 1 , 1981 . Prior to the start of construction of our building project, presently slated for approximately June 1 , 1981 , we would like to develop the properties we own on Block 57 for use as temporary parking. A Conditional Use Permit has been applied for and hopefully work could begin shortly. In order to proceed with developing these properties for temporary parking, the homes will have to be moved or razed. Before this is done, we need an agreement with the City as to how the value of these properties would be determined if they are purchased or condemned by the City at a later date. This is necessary since without the houses , obviously, the valuation of the properties decreases significantly. For the Moldenhauer, Hennen and Pass properties, we suggest the valuation be the total of the following: 1 . Acquisition cost of the Hospital , i .e. purchase price, attorney and appraisal fees, etc. 2. Development costs, i .e. moving or razing of homes, grade work, fill , engineering costs , etc. 3. Hospital administration costs in acquiring the properties 4. Other direct costs the Hospital can verify relative to these properties 5. Any monies received from the sale of the houses would be offset against costs. We are currently in the process of purchasing the Pass residence contingent on this agreement with you on the method of valuation. Attached is a list of our costs on the above properties. SPONSORED BY THE FRANCISCAN SISTERS OF ST. PAUL, MN John K. Anderson April 29, 1981 Page Two For the Meyer property, presently owned by St. Mary's Association, we suggest using the fair market value prior to the razing of the house on the property. The FMV could be determined by averaging an appraisal obtained by the City and one obtained by the Hospital . Added to this FMV would be other acquisition costs incurred by the hospital such as attorney fees, appraisal fees, etc. We would ask that this portion of the agreement be acted upon by the Council at their next scheduled meeting. Your prompt action would enable us to proceed in developing these properties for temporary parking. If there are any questions regarding the above, please contact us.

(b) The determination of when and to what degree such jeop- ardy has ceased, or has been reduced to the extent that the d$.s- 1 charge of water from Prior Lake may commence , shall be made jointly by the engineers of the Watershed District , Shakopee and Prior Lake in accordance with the following procedures : ( 1 ) An inspection shall be made to determine the depth and velocity of the flow at various locations in the drainage channel . ( ii ) The available calx :ity in the drainage channel shall be determined by using Manning ' s equation for open- channel flow. All calculations shall be performed by the Watershed District ' s engineer .and shall be confirmed by the engineers of Prior Lake and Shakopee . ( iii ) The "available capacity in the drainage channel" shall be defined as the calculated maximum rate of discharge at which the Lake Outlet can be allowed to operate without resultant damage to the drainage channel or to adjoining properties . (c ) After the available Capacity in the drainage channel has been determined by the engineers of the Watershed District , Prior Lake and Shakopee , the main Lake Outlet gate may be opened subject to adjustment so as to release water at a rate that will not exceed the available capacity in the drainage channel . Section 4.02 . Notice to Shakopee of Intent to Open Main Lake Outlet Gate . Prior to the opening of the main Lake Outlet gate and the release of water from Prior Lake , the Watershed District shall give Shakopee no less than 24 hours ' advance notice in accordance with Section 12.01 . Section 4.03. Inspection of Drainage Channel . (a) Prior to the opening of the main Lake Outlet gate and the release o -6- water from Prior Lake, the Watershed District shall inspect the drainage channel to insure the free flow of water for the anticipated rate and duration of the release period and to deter- mine the available capacity in the drainage channel in accordance with Section 4.01 (b) . Notice of any such inspection shall be I given to the engineers of Prior Lake and Shakopee and either City may elect to have a representative present for any inspec- tion. In the event that the inspection reveals that repair or maintenance is required to insure the free flow of water through the drainage channel , the party having responsibility for such repair and maintenance in accordance with Article VI shall promptly perform such repairs or maintenance so as to prevent any undue delay in the release of water from Prior Lake . In the event that such repairs are not promptly undertaken by the responsible party, the Watershed District shall have the right to perform, or cause to be performed , the repairs to be made after 24 hours ' notice and to 2cover the costs pertinent thei-eto from the responsible party. Daily inspection of channel condi- tions shall be made by the District during lake outlet drainage rates exceeding 20 CFS . In such event , the responsible party shall reimburse the Watershed District upon due demand therefor for all sums paid, or for the fair value of any work performed, by the Watershed District in connection with such repair or mlin- tenance . In addition thereto , the Watershed District shall per- form daily inspections of the drainage channel conditons during times that water is being released from Prior Lake at rates exceeding 20 CFS . (b) After the main lake outlet gate has been closed and the water in the drainage channel has receded, the Watershed District shall make an inspection of the drainage channel to determine whether it has been damaged by the flow of water from Prior Lake. Notice of any such inspection shall be given to the engineers of Prior Lake and Shakopee and either City may elect to nave a representative present for any inspection. Yn ' -7- the event that the inspection reveals that repair or maintenance is required to insure the free flow of water through the drainage channel , the party having responsibility for such repair and maintenance in accordance with Article VI shall promptly perform such repairs or maintenance so. as to prevent any undue delay l in the release of water from Prior Lake . ( c ) The inspection requirements set forth in Sections 4.03 (a) and (b) constitute the minimum obligation of the parties ; and any party to this Agreement shall have the full right to make such additional inspection of the drainage channel as it may deem necessary, with or without notice to any other party'. (d) Written reports of allinspections shall be made by the inspecting party and shall be forwarded to each of the other parties . Section 4.04. Operation of Dean ' s Lake Diversion Structure Gate . . (a ) The Watershed District shall have the exclusive authority for the operation of :he Dean ' s Lake diversion stru6- ture gate except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.04. (b) The normal position of the Dean ' s Lake diversion struc- ture gate ( that is , the position of the gate during times that water is not being released from Prior Lake) shall direct the flow of runnoff through the existing natural drainage route and shall not divert such runoff t1rough Dean ' s Lake. Nevertheleks, the Watershed District agrees to comply with reasonable requests by Shakopee to divert normal runoff through Dean' s Lake; provided, however, that such request shall be made to the Watershed District in writing and shall be accompanied by the Agreement of Shakopee to indemnify and hold the Watershed District harmless from any liability for loss , damage and cos , including without limitations reasonable attorney' s fees , result- ing from the diversion of runoff through Dean ' s Lake pursuant to the request of Shakopee . (c ) During the periods that water being released from Prior Lake is , lowing through the Dean' s Lake diversion structure , the diversion structure gate smallbe positioned so as to ut u -8- 4-2 all runoff through Dean' s Lake. However, in the event that the diversion of runoff into Dean ' s Lake is causing or creates an eminent danger of damage to private property, Shakopee shall have the authority to abate the flow of runoff into Dean ' s Lake by repositioning the diversion structure gate to direct all 1 or part of the runoff to the existing natural drainage route. Shakopee shall give the Watershed District prior notice of its intent to redirect the flow of runoff by adjustment of the diver- sion structure gate . Section 4. 05 . Additional Operational Conditions Imposed Upon the Watershed District . the Lake Outlet will be operated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the permit issued by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources . A copy of the permit is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" , and by reference made a part hereof . In no event will the Watershed District discharge water from Prior Lake. ART7 „E V USES OF DRAINAGE CHANNEL Section 5 .01 . Permitted Uses by Watershed District . The Watershed District shall use the drainage channel for the purpose of draining water from Prior Lake and for no other purposes. Section 5.02 . Permitted Uses by Shakopee . Shakopee reserves the right to use the basements obtained by the Watershed District in connection with its overall drainage plans as they are from time to time developed by Shakopee . In the event runoff in Shakopee results in or causes the need for expansion of the design capacity for the drainage ' channel,, Shakopee shall make or install all improvements necessary to increase the capacit of the drainage channel to handle the increased flow. Any suc improvements shall be made at the sole cost or expense of Shakopee ; and Prior Lake and the Watershed District shall be indemnified and held harmless from any and all liability for such cost or expense and for such increased flow. 4 -9- Section 5 . 03. Additional Authorized Shakopee Uses. Shakopee may use the easements without termination of this Agreement, for the installation, operation and maintenance of public services and utilities to include without limitation pub- lic streets, sanitary sewer, water, storm sewer, electrical and natural gas.

CITY OF SHAKOPEE 0 ' i U 129 East First avenue, Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 MEMO TO: John_Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Larry Martin. City Assessor SUBJECT: Prior Lake/Spring Lake Watershed Project DATE: April 29 , 1981 Introduction: i As requested I have reviewed the preliminary project plans 1 to form a general opinion as to its impace on taxable value within Shakopee. Background: Because the preliminary corridor follows, for the most part , public waters and/or natural water flow patterns already present, I do not foresee any appreciable loss in taxable acreage. Furthermore, because the corridor passes through an area which is primarily undeveloped, the unit value of the acreage absorbed is minimal . My main concern with this project is, as you state in your speed letter of April 26, damage avoidance, or the impact the corridor might have to surrounding acreage as it disects parcels of land. This is an area in which the City will want to pay strict attention to and weigh each argument as it effects the City, the 1 property owners, and the project as a whole. I 1 Summary: I don' t consider the taxable acreage under the easement itself a major concern, however, consideration should be given to the corridors path as it relates to accessibility, future development plans and the long term damaging effects that may be present in the preliminary plan. LDM :plk JULIUS A.GOLLER, II JULIUS A.COLLER ATTORNEY AT LAW 612-445-1244 1859-1940 2 1 1 WEST FIRST AVENUE SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA 553Z9 April 29, 1981 Mr. John K. Anderson, City Administrator Shakopee CityHall Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 Dear John: In connection with the eminent domain proceedings brought by the City of Shakopee against John M. Dunkers and wife and Walter C. Muhlenhardt and wife, I was furnished with two real estate descriptions. One covered the property then owned by the Dunkers, now owned by the Lindemanns; the other was the Muhlenhardt parcel. Condemnation proceedings were instituted on the basis of the two descrip- tions and the Commissioners were appointed, made their awards and the condemnation proceedings were completed. The only award in which we are presently interested is the Muhlenhardt which was set at $500 plus the appraisers fees of $150, as allowed by law, making a total of $650 awarded to Mr. Muhlenhardt. Shortly thereafter, I was advised that the description furnished for the Muhlenhardt]was much larger than it should have been and larger than was needed. In order to keep the negotiation process somewhat open, I appealed the award and this appeal is now pending in the District Court and will shortly come up for trial. Negotiations were undertaken with Mr. Muhlenhardt's attorney to reduce the required land taking to a 60'x60" tract for which the City would pay a proportionate fee to Mr. Muhlenhardt. Mr. Muhlenhardt and his attorney are not interested and want the full amount of the award. Under these circumstances, I recommend dismissing the appeal and paying the award but taking the entire tract described in the proceedings. I doubt if we would prevail on the contested appeal and the cost would materially increase monies invested in the above project. Re •-ctfully submitted, ,p Ju us A. Coller, II Shakopee City Attorney JAC/bpm Action Requested: Authorize dismissing appeal oraward of eminent domain proceed- ings against Walter C. Muhlenhardt and wife, and authorize and direct appropriate city officials to pay the award of $650 and take possession of the entire tract described in the proceedings . MEMO TO: John Anderson City Administrator FROM: Don Steger J° ..1 City Planner v RE : Newly Revised Sign Ordinance DATE : April 27 , 1981 At the City Council meeting of April 21st , the Council elected to not take any action on the above-referenced . At that time, a suggestion was made to include a reference on City water storage tanks . This has been so noted and included on Page 90 as Item "W" , as follows : W. Signs for City water storage facilities shall be exempt from size restrictions . Since this was the only change noted, corrected copies have not been made for the City Council, but now included on the original copy of the newly revised Sign Ordinance . Action Requested : City Council approve the newly revised Sign Ordinance and direct the proper City Officials to prepare an appropriate ordinance for Council adoption. j iw 0qp(4, CITY OF SHAKOPEE ,..<7.1)t} te t . 129 East First Avenue, Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 `a it MEMO Mayor and Council TO: FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator SUBJECT: Tax Increment Financing (TIF) - S .F. 635 DATE: May 1 , 1981 Introduction: City Council , at its regular April 21 , 1981 meeting, asked that I summarize the Action Alert from the League regarding Senator Mary Hanson' s Bill S .F. 635 which would amend the TIF statutes. I contacted the League to determine the current status of the bill and learned that it was voted out of the Senate Tax Committee with minor changes and that the bulk of the League ' s objections to the bill were still valid. Summary: The League objects to 10 sections, ie. proposed changes, recom- mended by the bill . The bill , according to the League would virtually kill economic development projects (districts) , and put greater limitation on redevelopment projects (districts) . Should the bill pass, the changes would negatively effect TIF just when it may be the only viable tool left (grant programs are declining) for local governments to use for redevelopment like those Shakopee is considering for its CBD . The League feels it is imparative that local elected officials contact their State Legislators and ask them to vote against this bill : Because the bill is a critical one and is now on the Senate floor I am also including a detailed summary of the Leagues review of the bill below. If you do not -wish to spend time on it , skip to the "recommended action" section. V- 1 . S . F. 635 WOULD CAUSE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT TIF DISTRICTS TO RESULT IN HIGHER SCHOOL MILL RATES . Summary Under section 1 of S .F. 635, the captured assessed value (CAV) of parcels in economic development districts would be included in adjusted assessed value of each school district for purposes of com- puting school aids. The state would end up paying less school aids and the school district would still receive the same amount for pupils, but the local tax payer would pay a higher school mill rate. League Amendment Strike Section 1 Explanation of Amendment This part of S . F. 635 would build into every economic development pro- posal a high level of local opposition to TIF. Since a higher school levy would be the direct result of any economic development project , city officials would be understandably much more reluctant to approve such a project. 2. DATE FOR DETERMINATION OF "ORIGINAL ASSESSED VALUE" MODITIED - THE INTENT IS TO INCREASE THE BASE VALUE OF DISTRICT AND DECREASE THE TAX INCREMENT . Summary M. S. 273. 73 , subd. 7 , now defines "original assessed value" as the value of taxable property in a TIF district as most recently certified by the Commissioner of Revenue . Section 2 of S.F. 635 would change that date to January 2 of the year in which the request for certification of a TIF district occurs . League Amendment Strike Section 2 Explanation of Amendment The way the bill is currently drafted, the January 2 value is not definite because it is subject to appeal and change. Itis essential to have a "real number" at the time the district is certified so that the appropriate cash flow projections may be made. This is why it is necessary to refer to the most recently certified value. Given the major administrative and practical problems with this section of the bill , the best answer is to delete it. The problem it is meant to address , that of "windfall" gains in captured assessed value , is not really that great . 3. DEFINITION OF REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT TIGHTENED UP - MUCH MORE DIFFICULT TO QUALITY AS A "BLIGHTED AREA" . -2- .J Summary M.S. 273. 73 , subd. 10, defines the types of projects which may qualify as redevelopment districts . Paragraph 2 of the sub- division contains an objective "blight finding" requirement . 20% of the buildings must be structurally substandard and an additional 30% of the buildings must be "found to require substantial rennova- tions or clearance" in order to remove specified problem conditions . Section 3 of S.F. 635 would increase the 207 requirement to 257 and the 307 requirement to 40%. League Amendment The League opposes this particular change because it will make it much more difficult for a blighted area to qualify as a redevelop- ment district . Explanation of Amendment The S.F. 635 approach would tend to encourage a spot renewal approach to redevelopment as opposed to a more comprehensive area approach. This portion of the bill would make TIF much more unworkable , espe- cially for smaller cities . 4. INCLUDES BOND CONSEL AND CONSULTANT COSTS INTO ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES, WHICH ARE LIMITED TO 5% OF TOTAL TAX INCREMENT EXPENDITURES . Summary M.S. 273. 73, subd . 3, currently limits administrative expenses to 5% of the toal tax increment expenditures . Section 4 of S.F. 635 would include as administrative expenses , and thus subject to the limit, "amounts paid for services provided by bond counsel , fiscal consultants , and planning or economic development consultants . " League Amendment Strike Section 4 Explanation of Amendment By requiring that payments for bond consel and consultant services fall within the 5% administrative expense limit , the bill would effectively stop the use of TIF in most cities . The administrative expenses of most projects are currently at the 57 limit , so there would be no room to add the costs for bond consel and consultant services . It particularly discriminates against smaller cities and projects where the city does not have sophisticated planning staff. 5. WRITTEN COMMENT BY COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS ON TIF PLAN PROPOSAL Summary M.S. 273. 74, subd. 2 , currently allows county commissioners to present comments on a TIF plan at a public hearing. Section 6 of S.F. 635 would allow the county to have a more meaningful input into the process , by giving the county 45 days to make written comment on the proposal . -3- Leauge Amendment Reword the section to clarify that the county should not be able to use its authority to make written comment as an effective veto power. Explanation of Amendment The county should be able to make written comment , but not be able to effectively exercise veto power. 6 . CITY REQUIRED TO WRITE DOWN SPECIFIC AND DETAILED REASONS FOR FACT FINDINGS. Summary M.S. 273. 74, subd . 3 now requires a municipality to make various fact findings before or at the time of approval of the TIF plan. Section 7 of S.F. 635 requires that detailed and specific reasons for those fact findings be made in writing. League Amendment Strike the words "detailed" and "specific" and simply require the municipality to "set forth in writing the basis or reasons for each determination" . Explanation of Amendment A requirement to set forth detailed and specific reasons is too cumbersome and expensive, and would invite litigation. The League ' s amendment would retain the general principle of requiring written reasons for the fact findings , but would not create as many practical problems . 7 . REVERSE REFERENDUM REQUIREMENT FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DISTRICTS Summary S.F. 635 adds a new requirement to the TIF law which allows for a reverse referendum in the case of economic development dis- tricts . A reverse referendum would be required if requested by a number of voters equal in number to 10% of the votes cast in the city in the last general election. League Amendment Strike sections of S.F. 635. Explanation of Amendment The League opposes this reverse referendum provision for several reasons . First , it could allow for a minority of voters to stand in the way of worthwhile economic development projects . Second , the TIF law currently contains safeguards to that public opinion forms an important part of the TIF planning process . Third , the -4- f r referendum provision applies only to economic development districts , and it a fairly transparent attempt to make it more difficult to use TIF for economic development purposes . 8. CHANGES THE "KNOCK-DOWN" PROVISION FROM FIVE TO THREE YEARS Summary M. S. 273. 75 , subd . 6 , currently contains a significant restriction called the "knock-down" provision. If no demolition, rehab, etc. have begun on a parcel within 5 years after certifica- tion of the district then no additional tax increment may be taken from the parcel and the base value is adjusted to exclude the original assessed value of a parcel . S.F. 635 would lower the limit to 3 years . League Amendment Retain the 5 year provision in current law. Explanation of Amendment There are two major problems with the bill . First , it may reasonably take as long as five years to begin necessary work, given problems with acquisistion, relocation, etc. Second, it would result in many parcels going "out" and then back "in" to the base value of a district This would be expensive and time consuming to administer. 9 . REQUIRES "PRIOR" PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS TO BE INCLUDED IN BASE VALUE Summary M.S . 273. 76 , subd . 4, now authorizes a county to increase the base value of a TIF district by the assessed value of the improve- ments for which building permits were issued 18 months before approval of the TIF plan - "prior planned improvements . " The idea is to pre- vent a TIF district from benefiting from development which was occurring or going to occur anyway. S.F. 635 would require the base value to be increased by the prior planned improvements , or in other words to exclude prior planned improvements from the captured assessed balue. League Amendment Retain current statutory language relating to prior planned improve- ments . Explanation of Amendment Counties already have the power to increase the base value by the value of prior planned improvements . There is no reason to make the process mandatory statewide. 10. NOT MORE THAN 5% OF TIF PROCEEDS MAY BE USED FOR TRUNK HIGHWAYS -5- Summary S.F. 635 was amended in subcommittee to include a new pro- vision that would essentially prohibit any TIF proceeds from being used for any improvements on trunk highways . The law currently allows for TIF to be used to improve streets and roads as part of a project to encourage development . League Amendment Strike the "no roads" section. Explanation of Amendment The "no roads" part of S.F. 635 represents an overreaction to legis- lative concerns that TIF will somehow supplement the state ' s current system for financing highways . The problem is that many TIF districts , particularly in non-metropolitan cities , involve improvements to "Main Street" business areas that include trunk highways . This could effect Shakopee ' s CBD redevelopment efforts . Action Requested Approve a motion strongly objecting to Senator Mary Hanson' s TIF - S.F. 635 and instructing the City Administrator to write members of the Senate Tax Committee.

COUNCIL POLICY STATEMENT CITY OF SHAKOPEE Subject : Review of Tax Increment Economic Development Projects There are three types of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Districts : Redevelopment , Low & Moderate Income Housing and Economic Develop- ment . Shakopee has elected not to make TIF available for any type of low and moderate income or conventional housing unless it meets Redevelopment Project Criteria outlined on a similar Council Policy Statement (i .e . TIF is no available for housing on bare land) . TIF thus is available for Redevelopment Projects under a separate , but similar, Policy Statement . The purpose of this policy is to establish the City' s position with respect to the processing of requests for, and the creation and imple- mentation of tax increment financing districts for economic develop- ment purposes. STATEMENT OF POLICY Applicability It is the policy of the City of Shakopee to ensure a stable employ- ment and tax base. New industrial , commercial , and residential development can assist the City in achieving this objective . In a limited number of such cases , the City will consider applications from qualified companies or individuals for the creation of a tax increment district to provide all or a portion of the funding for the public improvements necessary for such developments. Funding for such improvements will only be considered where it would be consistent with the applicable provisions of State law and this policy, where the public benefit of the improvement can be clearly demonstrated , and where the cost of such improvement is considered by the City Council to be extraordinary (i .e. cost not incurred in typical projects/improvements in Shakopee) . It is in the public interest that the creation of tax increment dis- tricts occur only after the City has been fully informed concerning the proposal and its current and future prospects . Protection of the City' s interests requires thorough investigation of any such request . The company or individual requesting creation of a tax increment district will be required to furnish certain information and assume the cots of the City' s efforts . It shall be the expressed intent of the City to expedite to the greatest extent feasible the processing of all requests for the creation of tax increment districts so that no undue delays are experienced by the applicant . However, nothing herein shall be construed as representing a commitment on the part of the City to create tax increment districts . Policy The following policies will be observed in the Council ' s considera- tion of the creation of tax increment districts : -2- 1 . Benefit to the City: For purposes of determining benefit of a proposed tax increment district , both its estimated economic and other benefits shall be considered : (1 ) The economic benefit is the increased tax base that will result , not only in terms of the absolute increase in the tax base , but also with respect to how great an increase will be received from a given public invest- ment ; (2) A 10-to-1 ratio of estimated market value increase to amount of tax increment assistance requested shall be used as an approximation of the return necessary for a minimally adequate project ; (3) A ratio of jobs created to the amount of tax increment assistance requested shall be used to determine benefit to the City; (4) The length of the required pay-off , and (5) Other benefits of the proposal to be considered including land dedications , etc. The developer will normally be expected to pay for municipal services costs attributable to the project during the tax increment district ' s life, except in those instances when the City Council deems such contributions as unnecessary. 2 . Character of Improvement : Only that portion of the costs asso- ciated with the installation of public improvement and deemed extraordinary shall be considered for financing through tax increment. A viable project should typically be able to pay for the cost of streets , utility service , site preparation, etc. 3. Demonstration of Need : A request for tax increment financing shall demonstrate that feasible alternative financing is not available and that the assistance applied for is needed in the amount requested. The developer will be asked to submit a pro- forma, an estimate of costs and revenues of the project , the amount of private capital in the project , and other information as deemed essential for analysis by the City. Such analysis will either be made by Staff or through the City ' s financial consultant when considered necessary. An applicant who is not willing to provide this information to the City should not make a formal request for tax increment financing assistance . 4. Size of the Project : Because of the time and cost involved in analyzing a request for tax increment financing , and because tax increment financing should only be used in those instances where the project will have a demonstrable positive impact on the community as a whole , requests for tax increment financing of less than $100,000 will not be considered as a general rule . A request of this minimum size would require a development to increase the market value of the property by $1 ,000,000 assuming the 10-to-1 ratio noted above . 5. Project Certainty/Financial Guarantees : In addition to the other factors , favorable consideration for tax increment financing will be based on: (1) when the development is expected to occur ; (2) the demonstrated capacity of the applicant to successfully complete the development ; (3) the certainty that the tax increments will be received . Tax Increment Revenue Bonds , rather than General Obligation Bonds , will be used to fund improvements to be repaid with tax increment . Applicants for tax increment financing of improvements will be -3- N A required to sign an acceptable written agreement setting forth the responsibilities of the applicant and the City with respect to the project . The performance of the applicant under such contract shall be supported by presentation of a financial guarantee in the form of an irrevocable letter of credit . Procedure The following procedures will be utilized in reviewing tax increment financing proposals : 1 . A written request shall be submitted to the City Administrator' s office by the person or firm requesting the City to utilize its tax increment financing capacity. The request shall contain, at a minimum, the information specified in the pre-application form. 2. Upon submission to the City Administrator' s office the request shall be reviewed by a committee consisting of the City Planner, City Engineer, Public Works Director, Utilities Director, City Assessor, and Finance Director and chaired by the City Administra- tor to determine , on a preliminary basis , whether the proposal appears to be feasible . 3. The application and accompanying supportive financial data shall be forwarded to the City' s Financial Consultant for review. 4. The preliminary proposal shall be placed on the next scheduled Work Session agenda of the City Council for its preliminary review. At that time, the developer may make a presentation to the Council , and Staff will make preliminary comments concerning the perceived feasibility of the project . 5. Based on the City Council ' s preliminary review, the applicant may elect to file a formal application, accompanied by a non- refundable fee of $2 ,500.00. In addition, the applicant must agree to assume all direct costs (i . e. non-staff costs) to the City for its analysis and evaluation of the request . 6 . Upon the filing of a formal application, Staff shall proceed to complete a tax increment financing analysis which shall examine in detail the proposal ' s financial viability (which may include a full appraisal by Staff or M.A. I . ) , and benefit to the community as outlined in the policies above. 7 . The developer shall attend at least one (1) meeting with resi- dents and property owners in and within 500 feet of the proposed tax increment district conducted by the City Council . 8. After the meeting in Step 7 and upon completion of the tax increment financing analysis , .a recommendation will be made to the City Council . Based upon that recommendation, the Council may authorize the Staff to commence negotiation of a development contract. 9 . Negotiation of the development contract prepared by the City occurs . 10. During the negotiation of the development contract , a tax incre- ment financing plan and development district plan will be pre- -4- is pared by Staff, with notification being provided to Scott County and the School District . 11 . The City Council will be asked to approve a development contract , tax increment financing plan, and development district plan, after public hearings with published notice and notice mailed to residents in and within 500 feet of the project . 12 . The adopted plans will be filed with Scott County and the State of Minnesota. 13. Tax increment bonds are issued. • CITY OF SHAKOPEE /;i APPLICATION TAX INCREMENT FINANCING ASSISTANCE • BACKGROUND INFORMATION Legal name of applicant: Address : Telephone number: Name of contact person: DISTRICT INFORMATION Addendums shall be attached hereto addressing in detail : 1 .

Shakopee has elected not to make TIF available for any type of low and moderate income or conventional housing unless it meets Redevelopment Project Criteria outlined in this Policy Statement (i .e . TIF is not available for housing on bare land) . TIF is avail- able for Economic Development Projects under a separate , but similar , Policy Statement . Minnesota statutes place the responsibility for redevelopment pro- jects with housing and redevelopment authorities . Under Minnesota statutes , however, the redevelopment and tax increment financing plans of the authority must be approved by the City Council . In addition, the financing of such projects requires the active involve- ment of the City. As a result , it is necessary that the City have a policy in regard to these projects . The purpose of this policy statement is to establish the City' s posi- tion with respect to the processing of requests for , and the creation and implementation of , tax increment financing districts for redevelop- ment purposes . STATEMENT OF POLICY Applicability It is the policy of the City of Shakopee to remove , prevent , or reduce blight ,' blighting factors or the causes of blight (M. S.A. 462 .421 , Subd . 13) in order to protect property values and the tax base of the City. For those purposes it may be necessary to create tax increment redevelopment districts in selected portions of the City and to fund public improvements or public redevelopment costs for private develop- ments within such districts . Creation of tax increment redevelopment districts or requests for tax increment funding of improvements may come as the result of City ini- tiative , Housing and Redevelopment Authority action, or a private proposal . It is in the public interest that the creation of tax increment districts and the financing of improvements with tax incre- ments be made only after the City has been fully informed concerning the proposal and its current and future prospects , and has been able to thoroughly investigate it . Where a company or individual is requesting creation of a tax increment district or the financing of improvements via tax increments , that company or individual will be required to furnish certain information needed for such investigation and will be required to assume the costs of the City ' s efforts . It shall be the expressed intent of the City to expedite to the great- est extent feasible the processing' of all requests for the approval -2- D ..v of tax increment projects so that no undue delays are experienced by the applicant . However, nothing herein shall be construed as representing a commitment on the part of the City to create tax increment districts . Policy The following policies will be observed in the Council ' s considera- tion of the approval of tax increment projects : 1 . Benefit to the City : For purposes of determining benefit of a proposed tax increment district or project , both its estimated economic and other benefits shall be considered : (1 ) The economic benefit is the increased tax base that will result , not only in terms of the absolute increase in the tax base , but also with respect to how great an increase will be received from a given public investment ; (2 ) Equally important is the contribution the proposal makes to eliminating blight , preventing the spread of blight , or supporting other parts of the redevelopment plan that achieve those ends ; and (3) The removal of particularly detri- mental land uses or buildings , or the provision or especially needed services or types of development are benefits that will be considered in evaluating requests . 2 . Character of Improvement : A viable project should typically be able to pay the cost of streets , utility service , site prepara- tion, etc. It is recognized , however , that redevelopment pro- jects often involve extraordinary costs not associated with typical development projects . Examples of such extraordinary costs include : (1 ) cost to acquire property, relocate building occupants and remove existing structures ; (2 ) costs associated with changing the image of a declining area ; and (3) costs to relocate or realign existing public utilities or streets . In determining improvements to be funded with tax increments , the City will consider the extent to which these improvements are , or are not the result of circumstances , in fact unique to a redevelopment situation ( i . e . circumstances not found in typical development) . 3. Demonstration of Need : A request for tax increment financing shall demonstrate that feasible alternative financing is not available and that the assistance applied for is needed in the amount requested . The developer will be asked to submit a proforma , an estimate of the costs and revenues of the project , the amount of private capital in the project , and other informa- tion as deemed essential for analysis by the City. Such analysis will either be made by Staff or through the City ' s financial con- sultant when considered necessary. An applicant who is not willing to provide this information to the City should not make a formal request for tax increment financing assistance . 4. Size of the Project : Because of the time and cost involved in analyzing a request for tax increment financing, and because tax increment financing should only be used in those instances where the project will have a demonstrable positive impact on -3- ,67/z.2 on the community as a whole , requests for tax increment financ- ing of less than $100,000 will not be considered as a general rule . A request of this minimum size would require a redelop- ment to increase the market value of the property by $1 ,000,000 assuming the 10-to-i ratio noted above . 5. Project Certainty/Financial Guarantees : In addition to the other factors , favorable consideration for tax increment financing will be based on: (1 ) When the development is expected to occur ; (2) The demonstrated capacity of the applicant to successfully com- plete the development , and (3) The certainty that the tax incre- ments will be received . Tax Increment Revenue Bonds , rather than General Obligation Bonds , will be used to fund improvements to be repaid with tax increment . Applicants for tax increment financing of improvements will be required to sign an acceptable written agreement setting forth the responsibilities of the applicant and the City with respect to the project . The performance of the applicant under such contract shall be supported by presentation of a financial guaran- tee in the form of an irrevocable letter of credit . Procedure The following procedures will be utilized in reviewing tax increment financing proposals : 1 . A written request shall be submitted concurrently to the City Manager ' s office and to the Executive Director of the Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority by the person or firm re- questing the City and HRA to utilize their tay increment financ- ing capacity. The request shall contain, at a minimum, the information in the pre-application form. 2 . Upon submission the request shall be reviewed by a committee consisting of the City Planner, City Engineer , Public Works Director , Utilities Director , City Assessor , Finance Director , and HRA Executive Director and chaired by the City Administrator to determine , on a preliminary basis , whether the proposal appears to be feasible . 3 . The application and supporting financial data shall be submitted to the City ' s Financial Consultant for review. 4. The preliminary proposal shall be placed on the next regularly scheduled agendas of the HRA and of a City Council Work Session for their preliminary review. At those times , the developer may make a presentation, and Staff will make preliminary comments concerning the perceived feasibility of the project . 5. Based on the preliminary review, the applicant may elect to file a formal application with the City, accompanied by a fee of $500. 6 . Upon the filing of a formal application, Staff shall proceed to complete a tax increment financing analysis which shall examine in detail the proposal ' s financial. viability (which may include a full appraisal by Staff .or M.A. I . ) , and benefit to the commu- nity as outlined in the policies above . -4- 7 . The developer shall attend at least one (1 ) meeting with resi- dents and property owners in and within 500 feet of the proposed tax increment district conducted by the City Council and HRA. 8. After the meeting noted in Step 7 and upon completion of the tax increment financing analysis , a recommendation will be made to the City Council and HRA. Based upon that recommendation, the Council and HRA may authorize the Staff to commence negotia- tion of a redevelopment project . 9 . Negotiation of the redevelopment contract prepared by the HRA occurs . 10. During the negotiation of the redevelopment contract , a tax increment financing plan and redevelopment plan will be prepared by Staff with notification being provided to Scott County and the School District , if such plans have not already been adopted. 11 . If a redevelopment plan is needed , such plan shall be transmitted to the Planning Commission for review and comment . 12 . The HRA will be asked to approve a redevelopment contract and a tax increment financing plan and redevelopment plan in the event such plans are needed . 13. The City Council will be asked to approve the redevelopment con- tract and, if necessary and after the appropriate public hearings (noticed via published notice and notice mailed to property owners in and within 500 feet of the proposed district) , a tax increment financing plan and redevelopment plan. 14. The adopted plans will be filed with Scott County and the State of Minnesota. 15 . Tax increment bonds are issued .

MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Gregg Voxland, Finance Director RE: Sewer Fund Budget/Rate Information DATE: May 1, 1981 Additional information pursuant to discussions of 4/28/81 is furnished as follows: Debt Schedule for $168,000 - Spencer to Prairie Sanitary Sewer Project. 10 year issue - $26,000/year, P & I Revenue/G.O. 15 year issue - $20,800/year, P & I Revenue/G.O. Discussion with Bob Pulscher and Phil Chenoweth of Ehlers & Associates. Question: How do most cities schedule debt service? Pulscher: I would like to see them schedule a certain amount for debt service and coordinate it with capital projects. Most do not, and thus can run a deficit after each project until rates are increased. Chenoweth: Most cities wait until their excess funds are depleted before they increase rates for debt service - its less difficult than to explain why rates are being increased a year before the additional funds are needed to retire the debt. Question: How do cities fund debt? Pulscher: Metro Area Cities are using a connection charge for trunk facilities, etc. About 50/50, or maybe less, use revenue from fees and G.O. Levy. Cities in Minnesota are probably using G.O. because of the Homestead Credit benefit which means 50% of the cost is picked up by the State. Connection fees don't help much for replacing older lines. Wisconsin uses user fees exclusively. Chenoweth: Cities use connection charges, water and sewer rates and G.O. Bonds. Most sell Revenue/G.0. Bonds to get the benefit of the G.O. interest rates then they annually levy as little as possible. Under the PCA, sewer charges for use of MWCC facilities must be paid for through user fees. Question: What do bond rating companies prefer in retiring debt: G.O. or revenues, (ie. fees)? Pulscher: Prefer that it be paid by revenues not taxes. Chenoweth: Rating services prefer to see it paid by assessments or user fees because it is not then part of the city's per capita debt. Observation: Any type of tax levy could be a real problem if Governor Quie's budget proposal goes through,with an 8% tax increase limit on any property taxes.

' City Attorney 7 MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Judith S. Cox, City Clerk RE: Reservations of Utility and Drainage Easements at the Time of Public Right-of-Way Vacations DATE: April 29 , 1981 Background At your request , I have spoken with Eldon Reinke regarding vacations of public right-of-way and the reserving of easements for present and future utility services. It is my understanding that the City wishes to reserve easements across the entire public right-of-way to be vacated, but will con- sider vacating part or all of the reserved easement when the property is being developed , if the developer submits an alternative which is acceptable to the City. In the resolution I have not detailed the requirements to be made of the developer requesting the vacation of the easements, but rather just stated that such a request could be made and would be considered if the Council determines that the reserved easement no longer serves a public interest (which could be because of an approved alternative) . Recommended Action Offer Resolution No. 1818, A Resolution Requiring The Reservation Of Utility And Drainage Easements At The Time Of Public Right-Of-Way Vacation, and move its adoption. JSC/jms RESOLUTION NO. 1818 A RESOLUTION REQUIRING THE RESERVATION OF UTILITY AND DRAINAGE EASEMENTS AT THE TIME OF PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY VACATION WHEREAS , the City of Shakopee has the authority to vacate certain public right-of-way, and WHEREAS , the City of Shakopee desires to reserve any and all easements required for present and future utility services . NOW THEREFORE , BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE , MINNESOTA, that when the Council does vacate certain public right-of-way, a utility and drainage easement shall be reserved encompassing the entire right-of-way being vacated.

Anderson, City Administrator Shakopee City Hall Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 Dear John: In re: Closing part of Atwood Street for construction at St. Francis Hospital You state that St. Francis Hospital has requested, among other things, the temporary closing of Atwood Street between 4th and 5th Avenues duringthe period of demolition and construction, which they estimate would last for approximately 12 months. You ask if the City has any liability for the street if it is blocked off from the general public. My answer to the City is that the City is liable and responsible for the maintenance and safety of streets and public ways and is liable for any negligence, malfeasance or misfeasance in the operation of the street and this would be true whether the street is open or closed to the public. It is true that, if closed to the public, the possibility of anyone being injured is reduced, but if the area is being used for demolition purposes, the liability is increased. In view of the fact that the hospital is adjacent to the area of/St. Mar 's Church, I would only advise thatlany temporary closing of the street for demolition and construction is granted, provisions be made for uninhibited access to that part of the street closed at all times by any emergency vehicles, and that, before any steps are taken to close the street to the public, the hospital file with the City an insurance policy or an endorsement to their existing policy saving the City free and harmless from any and all claims or suits arising or that might arise by virtue of the temporary closing and the use the hospital intends to make of the closed street. The endorsement or a copy of the policy bearing such endorsement must be filed with the City before any work is done. I would further recommend that, if the closing is granted, there would be a definite date set when the street will be opened and of course a provision that the street be restored to its present condition. . There are other requests which do not 'involve any legal liability question. If there are any questions, I willbe glad to discuss them. Very u y yolf °'_ ♦ / JAC/bpm Julius Co e .

The first phase of the program will be the demolition of St. Francis Hospital ' s "old home" and the construction of a new North East wing concurrent with a new Emergency Services Department. For the purposes of safety, I would request permission to close Atwood Street during this period of demolition and construction, approximately twelve (12) months. I would also request that there be "No Parking" on the west half of the AoiN, side of Fifth Avenue between Scott and Atwood during the period of construction. The hospital will be providing a new emergency entrance on Fifth Avenue to allow access to the existing Emergency Services Department until the new construction is complete. I will be happy to discuss this matter further with you. Best wishes. Sincerely, Thomas K.

City Attorney / CI MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Jeanne Andre, HRA Executive Director RE: K-Mart Landscaping Proposals DATE: April 29, 1981 Introduction The Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) has under- taken the Valley Park Redevelopment Project No. 1 . In the contract for sale of land for private redevelopment with the K-Mart Corpora- tion the HRA has agreed to undertake certain site-improvements as part of this project. A request has now been received to under- take the landscaping and irrigation system for the project . Background The HRA has previously requested the City of Shakopee to undertake all approved site improvements for the Valley Park Redevelopment Project No. 1 on behalf of the HRA. On August 5, 1980 the Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Shakopee , Minne- sota and the K-Mart Corporation executed an "Amendment to Contract for Sale of Land for Private Redevelopment in Valley Industrial Park Redevelopment No. 1". This amendment defines landscaping as an acceptable site improvement which can be paid from tax-increment funds. However the irrigation system is not specifically listed as an acceptable site improvement , so an attorney' s opinion was solicited to determine if a combined landscaping and irrigation system should be undertaken. Assistant City Attorney Phillip Krass determined that the irrigation system could be interpreted as an accepted site preparation for landscaping. Recommended Action Offer Resolution No. 1819 , A Resolution Authorizing Improvement , Approving Plans and Specifications , Ordering Advertisement for Bids and Designating a Project Engineer, and move its adoption.

The estimated replacement cost of a patrol vehicle in 1982 will be $10 ,000 per unit, $10, 800 in 1983, and $11, 600 in 1984, using current price increases. The cost of reconstructing our existing units is estimated at $3, 000 per unit in 1983 for rebuilding suspension, engine, seats, and drive train. ESTIMATED COST BENEFIT Current Program - Replacement of three patrol vehicles annually. 1982 - 30,000 1983 - 32, 400 1984 - 34, 800 97, 200 Proposal - Reconstruct three 1980 patrol vehicles and one 1980 Jeep. 1983 - 12,000 Estimated cost saving is $85,200 . �o cSE¢vE aotECt d Police Patrol Vehicle Reconstruction April 21, 1981 Page -2- RECOMMENDATION 1.

City of Shakopee POLICE DEPARTMENT 476 South Gorman Street SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA 55379 Tel. 445.6666 TO: Mayor, Council Members FROM: Thomas Brownell SUBJECT: Capital Items Purchase (Vehicle Engine & Heads) DATE: April 24, 1981 INTRODUCTION In order to facilitate the reconstruction of patrol vehicles and decrease vehicle down time for engine repair, I am re- questing authorization to purchase one spare engine and a set of engine heads. The number of primary patrol vehicles has been decreased from four units to three. Repairs, routine maintenance, and radio communication problems generally result in one vehicle being out of service . In the event an engine requires major repair, a vehicle is out of service for one week due to a lack of parts being available from parts dealers, as they are maintaining low inventories. We have been notified of a substantial price increase to be- come effective May 20, 1981. Perry Cheever and myself have reviewed the reconstruction program and current maintenance problems and agree that the purchase would be cost effective and improve vehicle down time. BUDGET CONSIDERATION I have revised the 1981 Capital Items Fund to allow for the expenditure using current funding. Cost of an engine and heads, approximately $1, 000 prior to May 20 , 1981.

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator RE: Firemen' s Annual Physicals DATE: April 29 , 1981 Introduction The City currently requires an annual physical for all firemen. Staff now questions if the physical is doing what it was designed to do and whether it justifies the time and cost to administer the program. Background Attached are four items for your review: 1 . The annual physical form filled out by the doctor. 2 . A memo from Linda Willemssen regarding the cost of the physicals . 3. A memo from Linda Willemssen regarding the administration of the program. 4. The results of a brief six City phone survey regarding the subject . To date no doctor has noted that a fireman is unqualified to perform a fireman' s duties (see circled item on physical form) . In addition, the cost of the physicals seem to indicate that some of the physicals are at best cursory while others are significantly more thorough. Because of these findings , I question if the City is accomplishing anything other than having a "doctor' s" name on the line for "insur- ance" purposes . This added bit of "protection" for the City, should a fireman have a heart attact , etc . , is something other cities apparently don' t feel is necessary. I have questioned the former City Administrator about why the pro- gram was instituted, and he said it was to screen out some firemen who were becoming "fat and sloppy" . If this was the purpose of the annual inspection and possibly the "insurance" aspect mentioned above , I feel there is a better way to accomplish the same thing while making what physicals that are required more meaningful . Recommendation I have reviewed the matter with Butch Ring and he is willing to implement a practical departmental physical stress test administered annually by the department itself at one of their regular training Firemen' s Annual Physicals Page 2 April 29 , 1981 meetings . The test would include those functions that a fireman is "expected" to perform at a fire and any fireman unable to perform them to the established norm would be required to have a thorough physical . Once designed , the program could be reviewed by a doctor(s) before used if it was deemed worthwhile. Pre-employ- ment physicals would still be required and the City would pay for them. Requested Action Motion by City Council to institute an annual physical stress test for all firemen with thorough physicals required of firemen not meeting a pre-established norm, and that said physical along with the pre-employment physical be paid for by the City.

Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Linda J. Willemssen, Sr. Acct'g. Clerk RE: Firemen's Physicals DATE: February 5, 1981 I am not aware of a written agreement, or directive, covering firemen's physicals. The past procedure, as I know it, has been that the City require each fireman to have an annaul physical, with the agreement that the City pay for any/all costs incurred for the physical. The only item I'm aware of that was not authorized for payment was when one fireman had received some shots that were not required nor relevant to the physical. If you find that there is, in fact, no written policy on this and decide to pursue it, may I suggest: 1) That a schedule be established and followed, ie. all physicals are to be completed and paperwork executed by a specific date, such as January 31 or February 15 of every new year. This practice would eliminate a lot of going back and forth with bills for approval and paperwork all year long. It would also alleviate a lot of confusion with billing problems we seem to be having with the various clinics. It would also allow us to maintain a "tighter reign" on this procedure. It would seem to me that if the City is requiring this someone should be following up on it to insure that each and every fireman is meeting requirements. 2) That each fireman be advised that they are not to instruct the clinic to bill to "The City of Shakopee", but rather to their own individual accounts and then render the clinic bill to me for reimbursement to them. The way it is now, where some firemen have the City of Shakopee as the "bill to", has created a great deal of confusion resulting in delay of payment as the clinic often times does not specify the person's name for whom the physical was given. By asking them all to follow this procedure for billing it would create a system of consistency which would insure more expedient payment and decrease the margin of error when we have to try to find out who the bill is for. /lw Phone Survey Pre-Employment/Annual Physicals 1 .

Leaders cooperated by providing lists of the points of origin of their employees with the general hours of employment as a basis for further exploration of transit alternatives . Based on the responses received the Mayor expressed interest in promoting local bus service. Background Information Mr. Norbert Schmitt , owner of Shakopee Services (a local bus company) , expressed an interest in providing bus service in Shakopee without government subsidy. The City staff agreed to try and identify poten- tial riders for a twice daily route from the core of the Shakopee residential district to the industrial park. The staff decided to try and reach potential riders through employers . In order to broaden employer' s willingness to distribute information, it was decided to combine promotion of the bus service with promotion of the Minne- sota Rideshare program (car and van pooling) which could serve employees emanating from other communities besides Shakopee . The Chamber of Commerce sponsored a luncheon meeting to promote transit options for member and non-member companies which was attended by 65 persons . Follow-up telephone calls assured cooperation of employ- ers . Shakopee Valley Publishing, School District 720, Owens-Illinois and St. Francis Hospital requested presentations for their employees and 11 other employers agreed to distribute information to employees . Employers were asked to distribute information, collect applications and return them to the City. Over 1500 brochures and applications were distributed . At this point eight applications have been received , 8 for rideshare and 1 also requesting bus service. Additional promo- tion included newspaper stories , a presentation on KSMM (This , That and the Other) and a booth at the local Energy Carnival on March 12 , 1981 . Alternatives 1 . Forward applications for Rideshare to Minnesota Department of Transportation and terminate further promotion of that program. Notify Mr. Schmitt and the one interested rider that interest ex- pressed in commuter bus service in Shakopee has been minimal and would not warrent initiation of commuter service at this time . 2 . Explore other means of promoting Minnesota Rideshare and local bus service. John Anderson Page 2 April 28, 1981 Recommendation Staff recommends the first alternative listed above . An extensive amount of staff time has already gone into the promotion of trans- portation alternatives for Shakopee , and there does not appear to be much interest in such alternatives at this time . JA/jms 2it,/ MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: John Anderson, City Administrator RE: Proposed 1982-86 Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Portion of Metro Waste Control ' s Development Program DATE: April 28, 1981 Introduction Included in this 1982-86 Development Program are two items of interest to Shakopee: (1) The Blue Lake WWTP Solids Handling Facilities and Sludge Processing which include a sludge digester and a sludge loadout for land application scheduled for 1982 and ; (2) The Chaska WWTP expansion which is being selected as the "preferred alternative" over the Jackson Township Interceptor and is scheduled for 1983-84. This memo will focus on item Number 2 . Background The Met Council is currently revising its Areawide Policy Plan and has received from the Metro Waste Control Commission (MWCC) their 1982-86 Development Program recommendations . There was a public hearing on Number 2 above last August and Met Council Staff is now compiling data for the public hearing to be held June 25, 1981 to formally revise their Areawide Policy Plan. The impact of the decision to expand the Chaska WWTP on Shakopee ' s growth patterns is significant ! With Federal money drying up for projects like the Jackson Township Interceptor, they will become less and less a reality if they depend on Federal Grant assistance. If what little Federal aid is available goes into the Chaska alter- native, then the location (the planning) , engineering and financing of Sanitary Sewer facilities in the upper valley needs to be re- examined when the present system is again saturated and/or the City' s Comprehensive Plan is reviewed in 1985. Summary John Harrington from the Met Council Staff will be sending us data that their Staff and MWCC Staff used in arriving at the selection of the Chaska WWTP Expansion Alternative. When we receive the material and analyze it ourselves , we can decide what ,. if any, type of presentation we would like to make at the June 25 , 1981 public hearing. Action Requested None required - file until additional material received. JKA/jms Business Item "H" METROPOLITAN WASTE CONTROL COMMISSION 350 Metro Square Building, Saint Paul , Minnesota 55101 222-8423 MEMORANDUM February 4, 1981 SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO SUBMIT THE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM FOR YEARS 1982-1986 TO THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL The Metropolitan Waste Control Commission is required by the Metropolitan Reorganization Act of 1974 to submit a five year Development Program on at least a biennial basis to the Metropolitan Council for its review and approval . A Development Program for years 1982-1986 has been prepared for submission to the Metropolitan Council by March 1, 1981 in accord with the Metropolitan Reorganization Act of 1974. Approval of projects in a development program constitutes consent by the Metropolitan Council for the Commission to proceed with funding and grant application for the projects. The Commission has recently completed a comprehensive Wastewater Management and Facilities Plan (201 Plan) to fulfill the needs and requirements of the Metropolitan Council 's 201 Areawide Wastewater Management and Policy Plan. The 201 Plan has proposed projects needed during the next twenty year period (1980-2000) . The Metropolitan Council will have ninety (90) days subsequent to March 1 to complete its review and either approve the program or return it to the Commission for revisions and resubmission of the program to the Council . The Council will either approve or disapprove the program based upon its consistency with the Council 's Areawide Wastewater Management and Policy Plan. The Council has the option to hold a public hearing and would be required to conduct a hearing prior to the approval if requested by the Commission. Since most of the projects have gone through the 201 planning process , it is suggested that the Council not be requested to hold a hearing. The preparation of the Development Program has been closely coordinated with the staff of the Metropolitan Council in an effort to determine the consistency of the projects with their Areawide Management and Policy Plan. Discussions were, also, held to determine the scheduling of the projects and if they should be constructed within the state and federal construction grants program or with full metropolitan funds. As a result of these discussions, including input from the regulatory agencies, it is proposed that the projects contained with the five year program should be funded mainly by federal and state grants and a number of interceptor projects should be fully financed with full metropolitan funds. Attached for your information is a summary of the projects, by name, anticipated costs and scheduling. The scheduling of projects has been determined based upon several important considerations which are, for example, the need to adher to permit require- ments or other existing or impending regulatory requirements, system deficiencies and improvement or replacement of obsolescent systems. The projects may be classified broadly as those related to wastewater treatment and water quality and interceptors to serve the metropolitan area. The proposed Development Program also includes an analysis of the impact of projects on the cost allocation. Q MEMORANDUM -2- February 4, 1981 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission authorize the submission of the proposed Development Program for years 1982-1986 to the Metropolitan Council for their review and approval . It is further recommended that the Metropolitan Council be requested to amend their Areawide Wastewater Management Policy Plan as necessary to provide the basis for approving the proposed Development Program. • Reviewed By: Prepared By: TI4 C--)" Anthony C.

Anderson, City Administrator RE: Unbudgeted Capital Outlay Purchase Exceeding $300 DATE: April 21 , 1981 Introduction The Engineering Department and Inspection Department saw the opportunity to cut their annual office supply and general supply line item expenses by purchasing a Kroy Lettering Machine for $616 .05. The two departments jointly purchased the item planning to split the expense and charge the amount to their respective supply budgets where the savings would occur. The Finance Director, however, has indicated that the item is a Capital Outlay and should be so recorded . Procedure and Recommendation The Finance Director has recommended that the two departments ' Office and General Supply line items ($2800 in Engineering and $900 in Inspection) be reduced by $308.03 each and thata $616 .05 Capital Outlay line item be inserted in the Engineering Depart- ment 1981 Budget . In this manner the total General Fund appro- priation will remain the same and the two departments will have to live with decreased Office and General Supply Budgets for 1981 . I concur with the Finance Director ' s recommendation. Since the item exceeds Council ' s $300 limit for unbudgeted capital outlays it requires Council action. Action Requested Approval of a Capital Outlay of $616 .05 for the Engineering Department for a Kroy Lettering Machine through respective $308.03 reductions in the Engineering and Inspections Departments ' Office and General Supply line items . JKA/js action alert 'iiiIIil�lll league of minnesota cities CITY OF 3HAKOPEE April 22, 1981 TO: Mayors, Managers, Clerks, Legislative Contacts FROM: Donald Slater, Executive Director Peggy Flicker, Legislative Counsel RE: Revised Governor's Budget - New 8% Levy Limit Proposal INTRODUCTION The Governor and the Legislature are now engaged in a pitched battle over taxes, services and programs, and budget cuts. Cities, unfortunately, are faring very poorly in the infighting over the budget crisis. It appears that the Governor and DFL leaders will accept the proposed shifts of state aid payment schedules which will cost cities an estimated $15 million over the biennium It also seems likely that local government aid will not be increased. Most disturbing of all is the Governor's proposal for a new, more restrictive levy limit. Do not assume that the proposal will not be seriously considered, despite its drastic implications. * Revenue Commissioner Clyde Allen argues the new levy limit is needed to curtail increased demand for homestead credit payments because of property tax increases necessitated by the proposed shifts and stabilization of state aid payments. Instead of proposing further direct restrictions on the homestead credit, the Governor intends to restrict cities' ability to tax. The seriousness of this proposal cannot be underestimated. Even though the DFL made a counter proposal regarding the taxation and budget crisis, this proposed new levy limit was not mentioned. Moreover, the Governor has completely reversed his position on the levy limit. The problem is compounded because the DFL has traditionally favored levy limits. The proposal hands a politically hot issue to the DFL and dares them to be the ones to "allow" significant property tax increases. The danger is that this part of the Governor's proposal could be approved, even over the opposition of responsible local officials. The League Board of Directors held an emergency meeting on April 20, inviting a number of city officials from throughout the state to review with them the Governor's new levy limit proposal and assess its potential impact on cities. Officials unanimously con- cluded that the proposal will have ominous consequences for cities, and enthusiastically reaffirmed the League's opposition to levy limits in general and this proposal in particular, (OVER) 300 hanover building, 480 cedar street, saint paul, minnesota 55101 C6123222-2861 -2- Cities need to set aside differences and unite in opposition to this new threat to local financial integrity. NEW LEVY LIMIT PROPOSAL - EXTREMELY RESTRICTIVE 1 This new, more restrictive levy limit would apply to all cities - not just cities over 2,500. 2: There would be an 8% cap on any city property tax increase. The 8% limit would be applied to a new type of levy limit base - the total 1981 city levy. In other words, if your city raised a total of $1,000,000 through the property tax in 1981, you would be able to raise no more than $1,080,000 in property taxes, for whatever purpose, in 1982. This is very different from the current system, under which the 8% limit is applied to a base, consisting of the combination of local government aids and the limited levy. Under the existing system, this base is allowed to grow to reflect population increases and there are various "special", or unlimited levies allowed for such purposes as bonded debt, pension costs, matching grants and court judgments. However, under the new proposal , no special levies would be allowed nor would population increases expand the base. 3: The 8% levy limit proposal would apply to cities, counties and towns. For compari- son, the average city levy increase for payable 1981 was 15.3%. Schools would be allowed to raise their basic maintenance levies 27.3% and "all other" 10.5%, for a total increase of 19.9%. HOW THE LEVY LIMIT PROPOSAL WILL HURT ALL CITIES The League fears that in 1982 and certainly in 1983 many cities will be forced into major service and expenditure cutbacks because of an inability to raise revenues locally under the Governor's proposed levy limit. Our position is that local officials are responsible and accountable, and should not be subject to arbitrary, across-the-board limits. Cities must protect their ability to use or not use the property tax as local needs require, The Governor has now admitted that he, at the state level , cannot make more expenditure cuts - "But there comes a point where you touch the nerve - where you can cut no more without doing serious damage. " His proposal does not allow city officials the freedom to make the same judgment. SOME CITIES MAY BE PARTICULARLY HARD HIT 1. Cities that have been frugal and attempted to keep property taxes down will be penalized, because their new "property tax levy base" will be smaller and thus the 8% allowed increase will be less. 2 Cities that have incurred bonded debt and expected to begin to levy for debt service in 1982 or later will be especially hard hit. In general , city bond ratings will be threatened because of limited ability to meet any full faith and credit obligations that might arise. Any activities necessitating bonded debt would have to be curtailed. 3, Cities that have any "special needs" such as an increase in bonded debt, increased need for services because of a growing population, requirements to fund growing pension costs, etc. - these cities will be hampered in their ability to deal respon- sibly with their unique local situation. 4 Cities that have been receiving a relatively high proportion of local government aids (LGA) will be especially hard hit, particularly in 1983. -3- YOU NEED TO ACT NOW 1. It is extremely important for city officials, particularly elected officials, to protest this proposed levy limit - vigorously, unequivocably and soon. Call or write the Governor, your legislators, and the leadership (Rep. Harry Sieben - Speaker of the House; Sen. Roger Moe - Senate Majority Leader) . Tell them you oppose the Governor's levy limit proposal . 2. Take the time to project the effect of the proposals on your city and understand the full impact. Suggestions on how to do this are enclosed. CONCLUSION No one wants to be blamed for property tax increases, and the legislature must have support from you if they are to reject the Governor's proposal . Legislators must be reminded that local officials are accountable to voters, too, and will use the power to tax responsibly. Cities have not been united on the issue of LGA cutbacks and payment shifts and it has severely hampered our lobbying effort. (It still looks like there will be an LGA freeze and payment shifts. ) We must unite and act now on this issue or we run the risk of taking a giant step backward on the question of local financial stability. Without your help cities may end the legislative session as losers in two ways - local government aids frozen and payments delayed; and no power to make up for cutbacks in state and federal programs by raising revenue locally. DS:PF:rmm Enc. HOW TO CALCULATE THE PROJECTED EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED 8% LIMIT ON LEVY INCREASES Complete the attached table, using the city's actual budget figures for 1981, and projecting for 1982 and 1983 as described below. 1. Assume a general fund budget increase of 9% annually in both 1982 and 1983. (Lines 2 and 3. ) 2. Include an increased debt levy for 1982 and 1983 (lines 5 and 6) only if the levy is for bonds for projects to which the city is finally comitted; i .e. contracts have been let. 3. The 1981 and local government aid figure should be the city's 1981 aid after the 8.3% cutback. The aid figure for both 1982 and 1983 should be the amount originally certified for 1981, before the 8.3% cutback. 4. The 1981 property tax levy figure should be the total property tax levy, including all debt and other special levies. This figure should be increased by 8% annually for 1982 and 1983. 5. Because of the differences among cities in the makeup of their other general fund revenues - revenue sharing, federal grants, license and permit fees, franchise fees, municipal liquor store or other enterprise fund contribu- tions, etc. - no general rule can be given for projecting these revenues for 1982 and 1983. The percent of increase will vary from city to city. Assume that revenue sharing will remain constant (no increase or decrease) , and that CETA funding will be eliminated. Income from sources such as fees and enterprise fund contributions should be estimated based on the trend in previous years. 4/22/81 PROJECTED EFFECTS ON THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE OF THE PROPOSED 8% LIMIT ON LEVY INCREASES 1981 1982 1983 A.

April-30, 1981 (612) 4537st Honorable Walt Harbeck • Mayor of Shakopee 1305 West Sixth Avenue Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 • Dear Mayor Harbeck: • Funding for the "Minnesota Ride Share" Program is in trouble in the Legislature. Mn/DOT's efforts to encourage and facilitate increased ridesharing would virtually come to a halt without this funding and one of the few practical solutions to our energy and transportation management problems would be curtailed. Since the inception of the Ride Share Program in November,- 1980, many car and van-pools have been formed. As the cost of gasoline increases, the formation of car and van-pools will accelerate. In the event of an energy emergency, it is the only alternative at the present time that we have to keep the business community functioning. I feel that the Minnesota Ride Share Program is most desirable for the State and the communities in the Metropolitan Area. If you concur in this assessment, please let your legislators know that you think the Minnesota Ride Share Program should be an ongoing program. Sincerely • //;,"1„4,.. 4.. W. M.

May 5, 1981 Dear Industry Member: You will recall that in the mid-70's, the City of Shakopee and Shakopee Public Utilities Commission negotiated with those Shakopee industries being served electricity at retail by Northern States Power Company. The results of those negotiations were the entering into of an Industry Agreement whereby your company and the other industries being served by NSP made voluntary payments to the City of Shakopee to replace the profit the City and the Utilities Commis- sion would have made had we served you with electricity at retail during the five-year period covered by the Agreement. You will recall that at that time we indicated that it was the eventual goal of the City and the Utilities Commission to serve all electric customers located within the City Limits of Shakopee. This is still our goal and to that end we have written Northern States Power Company with a request to open up negotiations with them for the acquisition of their service area within the City of Shakopee, as well as their facilities necessary and useful to service those customers. We will be happy to keep you informed of the results of those negotiations and their effect on your company. We will attempt periodically to give you a report on those negotiations. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to communicate them to Lou VanHout, Utilities Manager, at 1030 E. Fourth Ave, or to John Anderson, Shakopee City Administrator, at City Hall, or to bring them before a meeting of the Shakopee Public Utilities Commission, or a meeting of the Shakopee City Council. Both the Council and Commission have determined that it is in the best interest of the City that individual members of these two bodies not discuss the negotiations or acquisitions privately. We know you will understand the reasons for that policy and honor it. Thank you. Yours very truly, Wallace Bishop, President Walter Harbeck, Mayor Shakopee Public Utilities Comm. City of Shakopee The Heart of Progress Valley CITY OF SHAKOPEE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION '\\ 1030 EAST FOURTH AVENUE KC? SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA 55379 � e 445-1988 a May 5, 1981 Clayton Larson, President Northern States Power Company 414 Nicollet Mall Minneapolis, MN Re: City of Shakopee Acquisition of Northern States Power Service Area. Dear Mr. Larson: As you may know, it has been the policy of the City of Shakopee and the Shakopee Public Utilities Commission that the Commission should eventually serve all retail electric customers located within the City of Shakopee. This has been a goal toward which we have been striving for many years. We are now in the process of concluding our acquisition of the service area of the Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative located within the City and thought it appropriate to open communications with Northern States Power toward the end of acquiring Northern States Power Company's service area within the City Limits of Shakopee. Toward that end, we are asking that you consider the creation of a committee to meet with us to discuss this possibility. We are prepared to create a committee at the very highest level of the City Council and Utilities Commission, who together with our staff, would be most pleased to meet with our counterparts from Northern States Power. The applicable portions of Minnesota Statutes 216B relative to just compensa- tion for such acquisition consider the original cost of the property acquired less depreciation, integration of facilities expenses, as well as loss of revenue to the utility. If your company is prepared to discuss with us the proposed acquisition, you may deem is appropriate to examine these areas of compensation in a preliminary way so that they can be discussed at our meeting. You will recall that various representatives of Shakopee have over the past decade broached the subject of this acquisition with various representatives of Northern States Power Company. We are certain you will understand that our desire to make this acquisition relates to our long-term plan to serve all of Shakopee'€ residents and businesses. We await your early response and look forward to meeting with you to discuss this matter. Yours very truly, Walter Harbeck, Mayor 'Wallace Bishop, President, Shakopee City of Shakopee Public Utilities Commission The Heart of Progress Valle y Mr. 0"Conner would like the Council to consider requesting the Metro Transit Commission to consider changing their rout within Shakopee which would better accommodate the residents at the High Rise. Because there is not now any crossing for the citizens of this facility to cross the first avenue and promisses that have been made have not come to pass as yet . edu ,i i 1/4muinmen _ _ o I r� I 01) A i i z_ :r7
