HomeMy WebLinkAbout02/01/1983 MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator
RE: Non-Agenda Informational Items
DATE: January 27 , 1983
1 . The City has a draft of S . F. #79 relating to horse racing and
a study of the impact of a race track on file if anyone wants
to read them. They must go through 5 committees and the
Chamber of Commerce is following it for Shakopee .
2 . Attached is the monthly calendar for February.
3 . Attached is the agenda for the February 2 , 1983 Ad Hoc Downtown
Committee meeting along with the minutes of their October 13 ,
1982 meeting.
4 . Attached are the agendas for the February 3 , 1983 Board of
Adjustment and Appeals and Planning Commission meetings .
5 . Attached is a memo to the Suburban Rate Authority regarding
Northwestern Bell 1982 Rate Case .
6 . Attached are a couple of letters sent to Jim Karkanen regarding
snow removal .
7 . Attached is a copy of the fuel disbursements from 1975 to 1982 .
8 . Logis is undertaking a study to correct deficiencies in the
Equipment Control Module so that this program will be useful
to member cities . The module monitors the efficiency of equip-
ment by tracking maintenance , fuel consumption, use and if
desired depreciation. The system will be set up so that
double entries will be eliminated because the Finance Depart-
ment will transfer cost and necessary billing directly from
the equipment control module . It is the intent of member
cities to share this data so that each can benefit from the
aggregate experience . The program modification requires
participation of a large member city and a small member
city. Shakopee has been selected as the small member city
for this study. The Public Works Department will be working
with the consultant retained by Logis to make the system
useful to Shakopee and small cities . Logis will spend
approximately $13 ,000 on the modification. There is no
program design costs for Shakopee , but we would buy the pro-
gram once it is up and working just like all Logis communities .
Annual cost should he $2 ,450 or less . The City can decide
whet her or not t he hit' pmenl Cont rol Module aft or t he
modification is complete and after the City has had an opportunity
to use the module .
9 . The City is in receipt of the soils report for the Memorial
Park pedestrian bridge site . There is some good news and
some bad news . The good news is that the south abutment will
be on rock. The bad news is that there is no bottom on the
north abutment . More good news though, the FABCON material
is excellent . It will be used for the north abutment . More

bad news, a permit from DNR is required and that takes 6 to 8
weeks . More good news , the bridge could be ready by May 15 ,
1983 if FABCON has a slab. Thanks go to Eldon for contacts
with FABCON. -- Bo
10 . If Council wants to pursue the use of FABCON material , we could
start rebuilding the Eaglewood road with some FABCON material
and additional right-of-way. It is a good winter project
because the loads would not damage the road when the material
is hauled in. Staff could put a package together for the next
meeting if necessary. This will be brought up at the meeting
February 1st so you can ask any questions you may have prior
to the drafting of the memo. -- Bo
11 . I have asked Capesius Agency for something in writing stating
that the ice facility property is covered under the City
liability policy. I have also asked the Shak-O-Valley
Amateur Hockey, Inc . to provide me with names of officers ,
who is over seeing the operation and who they report to. -- Judy
12 . Tommy Merickel from Rudy Boschwitz ' s office will meet with
City officials on February 16th at 8 : 00 A.M. at City Hall
re : Shakopee concerns to be relayed to Mr. Boschwitz . Any
Councilperson wishing to meet with Mr. Merickel should mark
his calander.

MEMORANDUM
TO: SRA Board
•
FROM: Glenn E. Purdue
DATE: January 19 , 1983
SUBJECT: Northwestern Bell 1982 Rate Case
Status of Case.
Hearings concluded on December 8 , 1982 , and all parties ,
including SRA, have submitted Initial Briefs to Hearing Examiner
Myron S. Greenberg. Reply briefs are due January 21. The Examiner
will issue his report on February 20. Oral argument before the
Commission will be on March 20, and the Commission' s Order will
issue not later than April 20, 1983.
Activity Since Last Report.
During the final week of hearings, I cross-examined Bell
witness Arnold Albrecht regarding its estimated $2. 5 million cost
of changing the rate zones back to the previous density based
system. The SRA is taking the position that Bell' s $2 . 5 million
estimate consists primarily of inflated labor costs and that the
actual cost to Bell and the ratepayers for a changeback to the
previous system would be minimal.
The SRA filed its Initial Brief to the Hearing Examiner on
January 10, 1983. It asserts that:
1. The present and proposed schedules of charges across the
rate zones bear no reasonable relation to the cost of service
(one-party residential service is proposed at $154 . 08 annually in
Tier I and $231. 84 in Tier IV; a business line at $517. 56 in
Tier I and $758. 28 in Tier IV) ;
2 . The 36 percent across the board increase and resulting
schedule of rates is arbitrary and places an undue revenue
burden on customers living in Tiers II through IV;
3. The Tier System, and any non-optional measured service
with a distance element, fragments the metropolitan area econo-
mically and politically, and is not justified by any strong
countervailing public policy;
4 . The previous system better reflects important adminis-
trative policies of cost efficiency, fair distribution of charges
and public acceptance; and
5. A changeback to the previous system would not be burdensome
to the Company or' to the ratepayers.
Bell and Intervenor Positions on Issues of Concern to the SRA.
1. Rate of return: Bell' s requested increase in revenue
requirement is $89. 975 million, computed on a $1, 125 ,603, 000
intrastate rate base. Its requested overall rate of return is
"no less than" 13. 24 percent with a 17. 5 percent return on common
equity. The test year capital structure includes a 50. 1 percent
common equity ratio, without the Western Electric equity. In GR-
80-911, the Commission adopted a Bell system capital structure
which excluded the higher risk Western Electric equity.
Intervenor recommendations on return on common equity are as
follows : OCS -14. 12 percent; DPS - 15. 3 percent (11. 96 overall
rate of return) ; Federal Executive Agencies - 13. 5 through 15 . 0
percent (11. 26 - 12. 02 percent overall rate of return) ; and Metro
Deaf Senior Citizens , Inc. - 13. 5 percent. The common equity
ratio supported by the Intervenors ranges between 45 and 50
percent.
2. Rate design: Bell opposes the SRA' s position on the
Tier system. It claims that the Tier System was "fully examined"
in GR-79-388 and is thus proper. Further, it asserts that a
changeback to the previous base rate and zone plan would cause
excessive administrative cost and customer confusion.
Bell also defends the distance charge in its optional measured
service program. It rejects the SBA' s opposition to such a
charge by simply asserting that "the cost causer should be the
cost bearer. "
The DPS also opposes the SBA' s recommendation that the Tier
system be abandoned. First, it states that all statutory require-
ments were met when the DPS proposed the Tier plan in GR-79-388 .
Second, the DPS asserts that the SRA has not demonstrated through
any studies of its own that the Tier system is unfair or not
cost-based.
The DPS and OCS criticize Bell' s 36 percent increase in flat
rate service and its failure to increase the optional measured
service rate ($5. 69 per month) . They claim this is part of
Bell' s long range plan to force customers away from flat rate
service toward measured service with a distance element. Bell
denies this.

Mr. slim Karkanen
Street Superintendent
City of Shakopee
500 Gorman Street
Shakopee, MN 55379
Dear Sir:
This letter is long overdue since it is almost a month since the blizzard
which left us with sixteen inches of snow. I wanted to write you and say "thank
you" , and commend the efforts of you and the employees of the street department.
The blizzard left a very large drift at the end of my driveway preventing
your snowplow from petting all the snow close to the curb. The edge of the
snowbank was approximately five feet from the curb line and my mailbox hurried.
After finding that the post Office wouldn' t deliver my mail if they had to get
out of their truck (even though I had cleared a path to the mailbox from the
street) , I called your department and spoke with a female who was very polite.
I explained the problem, and indicated I was by no means complaining knowitg
that your peoole were extremely busy; this being only two days after the
blizzard. She stated she would make a note of my call but couldn't civarentee
when someone would be in that area to widen the street. The following morning
a road grader was at our intersection clearing back snow on the boulevards. I
went and spoke with the driver, who stated he had already called for a front end
loader to clear back the drift infront of my residence, since his blade would
block the end of my driveway. As he said, that afternoon a man in a payloader
arrived and completely cleared the area. This was impressive enough in itself
but the next week I looked out to see a snowblower clearing snow all the way up
to the curb line aivina access without difficulty to each mailbox.
We have lived in other municipalities where service of this type is simply
unheard of. I work for the State of Minnesota, and know that public employees
are so often criticized and rarely thanked. Therefore, I wanted to pass on my
thanks to you because of a job well done. Thanks again!
Sincerely,
Michael L. Asleson

Dear Jim:
In calling your office last Friday regarding the condition of 11th Avenue,
I reached Perry Cheever. I advised Perry that while 11th Avenue had been opened
on the same evening of the snow storm, it had not been widened to two lanes to
date.
Perry assured me that this was an oversight and that it would be handled
without delay. On my return home that afternoon, I found 11th Avenue opened
to the full extent of its width. The city had also paid the residents the
courtesy of reopening the walkways to their homes.
It is important to me that you know that we don't take that kind of re-
sponse for granted and that indeed we truly appreciate all the year around
services provided by your department. I thank you on behalf of the residents
along 11th Avenue for responding to our needs with the particular courtesy
extended by Perry Cheever.
Sincerely,
Jos F. Ries

OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
ADJ. REG. SESSION SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA JANUARY 18, 1983
Mayor Reinke called the meeting to order at 7:00 P.M. with Cncl. Wampach, Lebens,
Vierling, Leroux and Colligan present. Also present were John K. Anderson, City
Admr. ; Judith S. Cox, City Clerk; H. R. Spurrier, City Engineer; Jeanne Andre,
HRA Director; and Julius A. Coller, II, City Attorney.
Liaison reports were presented by Councilmembers.
Cncl. Colligan questioned the City Attorney relative to the delay in the execution
of the John Nelson sewer agreement. Discussion followed. Consensus of the Council
was the agreement remain as it is, and if it isn't executed by the next Council
meeting Mr. Nelson could appear and explain it, or the assessments would be levied.
Mayor Reinke asked if there was anyone present in the audience who wished to address
the Council on any item not on the agenda, and there was no response.
Leroux/Colligan moved to amend the minutes of January 4, 1983 on the first page,
second to last paragraph, to add "Reinke" as also being opposed to the motion.
Motion carried unanimously.
Leroux/Vierling moved to approve the minutes of January 4., 1983 as amended. Motion
Leroux i g pp
carried unanimously.
Wampach/Vierling moved to receive the report from the Minnesota Department of
Health dated January 3, 1983, and forward it to SPUC. Motion carried unanimously.
Discussion ensued regarding the Holmes Street Storm Sewer Assessment pursuant to
Mr. Robert Bullock's request for an adjustment in his assessment. The City Engi-
neer explained why the parcels in question were assessed a non-residential rate.
Mr. Bullock stated he was in the process of purchasing this property in March of
1980, and it was a lengthy process. He stated these were lots of record in the
early 1900's and they are right in the middle of a residential area, and he thinks
they should be zoned residential, R-3.
The City Engineer replied that since the City could not prevent the railroad from
a non-residential use of the property as long as it owned the lots, it was decided
to assess them at non-residential rates.
Mr. Bullock stated he just assumed a mistake had been made by the City, since any-
one would think that if the railroad abandoned the right-of-way the lots would go
back to becoming lots in a residential zone. These are two complete lots, not just
strips of land like in most parts of town. He stated he had a problem with his
attorney, who did not do an assessment search against the property before he bought
it, and he only found out a month ago that there were assessments against it.
Leroux/Colligan moved to abate one-half of the remaining portion of the Holmes Street
storm sewer assessment, which amounts to $428.44, on Lots 6 and 7, Block 51, Shakopee
City (to be funded from the general fund) . Discussion followed.
Cncl. Leroux stated it has been the City's policy to assess based upon actual use,
and this is clearly going to be residential property. The City Engineer stated
there has been a permit taken out for a single family dwelling for one of the lots.
He also stated there shouldn't be any similar situations in this assessment area.
Roll Call: Ayes; Reinke, Colligan, Leroux, Vierling, Wampach
Noes; Lebens
Motion carried.
Leroux/Lebens moved to re-open the public hearing regarding the 1983 Community
Development Block Grant. Motion carried unanimously.
The HEA Director gave some background regarding the concerns of the residents of
the affected area and some of the comments from a meeting with interested neighbors.

LaVerne Anderson, 217 S. Naumkeag, stated he is against the project, and he thinks
everyone else in the neighborhood is too.
Mrs. Jim Truebenbach, 1133 E. 3rd Ave. , stated she is opposed to it.
Eugene Hennes, 1123 E, 3rd Ave. , stated he is definitely against it.
Cncl. Leroux asked if the opposition was only to the rental units to be created in
the proposed multifamily housing.
Mrs. Jim Truebenbach stated she can see the public improvements part of it, but
she does not want 20 families behind and on the side of her. She is concerned with
extra traffic, dust and problems with low-income families. She stated she would
go along with twin homes or something similar, but it is too small an area for that
many families.
Discussion followed regarding the public improvements and how expensive they would
be without the rental unit and alternatives. Discussion followed regarding the
impact on the grant if the proposed apartment was left out. The City Admr. stated
the City scored lowest in the grant in the public improvements portion, and he
thought the chances of getting the grant without the multifamily housing would be less.
Mayor Reinke asked if there were any more comments from the audience.
Gene Hennes stated he liked the proposal 100% with the public improvements and
economic development, and without the apartments (multifamily housing) .

final recommendation was that the City should be aware of the Infiltration/Inflow
and create its own program to systematically reduce it as the work schedule warrants,
and to continue to televise the lines.

Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik & Assoc. , Inc. Motion carried unanimously.

plete this portion as soon as possible. She stated they are only talking about a

2nd Avenue Revitalization as it concerns the area which had been proposed for a
multifamily housing component, and whether it would be acceptable to include volun-
tary acquisition and demolition or moving of the structures in the grant if no new
housing is proposed. Consensus was to not include it in the grant application.
Discussion ensued regarding asking the 911 system to reimburse the City for costs

and hours spent by staff in 911 addressing. Motion carried with Cncl. Leroux and

Wampach/Colligan moved that anyone desiring to utilize the municipal parking lots
for a period longer than posted may ask the Council to enter into a special parking
lot lease agreement and direct staff to inform Mrs. Theis of this procedure. Motion
carried unanimously.
Cncl. Lebens questioned the need for sending new City ordinances to the codifier.
She stated the new Ordinances conform to the law and should not need to be changed.
She stated that if the City is just paying the codifier so much money for them to
just put them in a book, that is something the City can do. She is also concerned
that the codifiers change the meaning of Ordinances passed by Council.
The City Attorney and City Clerk both spoke in favor of continuing the use of the
codifier. They supported that system as being much better than anything the City
has had before. The City Clerk stated she thought City staff would not have enough
time to give proper attention to the ordinances, and staff would also not be aware
of the new laws and their effects on City ordinances. Also, this company knows
the City Code well now, and it would be very costly to change to another company.
Discussion followed.
Vierling/Leroux moved to authorize City officials to enter into a 1983 contract
with Municipal Ordinance Codifiers, Inc. at $85.00 per hour for counsel, $45.00

John Anderson
City of Shakopee
Dear Mr. Anderson,
Jean Sinell forwarded to me the material you received from the
League of Minnesota Cities regarding the Job Training Partner-
ship Act (JTPA) . I would like to take this opportunity to make
a few comments about the legislation.
JTPA, as you know, is replacing the CETA program. In essence,
JTPA will offer similar services to those currently being offered
by CETA. Basic vocational training and job search assistance will
still be given to disadvantaged, unemployed individuals. However,
there will be some significant changes in administrative and
funding procedures.
One of the major differences is that the Governor has oversight
responsibility for all JTPA activities in the State. He has the
authority to divide the State into Service Delivery Areas (SDA's) for
the purpose of program operation. The Scott County Commissioners have
gone on record favoring the retention of the North Star Consortium as
a SDA for Scott County. The North Star Consortium is a group of counties
combined under one administrative body which allows member counties
to operate the CETA programs as they see fit.
If the Governor agrees to retain the North Star Consortium as an SDA,
employment and training services will continue to be offered thru
the Human Services Department. This allows the County to have control
over the program so it can respond to local needs and use local resources.
If he does not agree, the chances are very good that the program would
be administered by another office, probably outside the County.
An Equal Opportunity Employer
Once the North Star Consortium is approved as an SDA the City may be
asked to participate in some planning or organizational activities.
If you would like to have input into the SDA designation process, I
encourage you to write by February 4 to the Governor's Job Training
Council, %Mary Zierdt, Governor's Job Training Office, 690 American
Center Building, 150 E. Kellogg Boulevard, St. Paul, MN 55101.
Please feel free to call me with any questions or concerns you may
have regarding JTPA.
Cor• '.ally,

Action Recommended
Direct staff to write to the Governor' s Job Training Council
advising them that the City of Shakopee favors the retention
of the North Star Consortium as a Service Delivery Area for
implementing the Job Training Partnership Act within Scott
County and that the City of Shakopee would be willing to
participate in planning or organizational activities .

TO: Mayors, Managers and Clerks
FROM: Don Slater, Cathy Quiggle
RE: Job Training Partnership Act
Attached is an explanationof the new Job Training Partnership Act. The Act
replaces the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) and is designed
to provide training opportunities for economically disadvantaged youths and
adults, and for displaced workers.
The Act contemplates that local elected officials will cooperate with local
businesses in the development of an effective employment delivery system and
training program. While funds for training will not be available until
October 1983, interested city officials should use this interim period to meet
with local business people, chambers of commerce, and other local officials.
The purpose of these meetings will be to have a delivery system and training
program in place by October 1983 so as to be eligible for funding.
The enclosed information from the National League of Cities explains the
requirements of the program in more detail. If you have any questions, please
contact Cathy Quiggle at the League office, 612-227-5600.

DELIVERY SYSTEM
Service Delivery Areas (SDAs) - In FY 1983 the new program will be
put in place. Prime sponsors will be phased-out and replaced with
Service Delivery Areas . Units of local government of 200 , 000 or
more population or consortia of contiguous units of local govern-
ments whose aggregate population totals 200 , 000 must request
designation by the Governor as SDA' s . The Governor may not deny
such a request. Units of government which do not meet these
population criteria, but which serve a substantial portion of a
functioning labor market, may also request designation as SDA' s.
The Governor, however, may approve or deny such a request.
Private Industry Councils (PICs) - Each SDA must have a Private
Industry Council. The majority of the PIC must be representatives
from the private sector, including, where feasible, representa-
tives of small and minority business. The remaining PIC members
must include representatives from educational agencies (including
proprietary schools) , rehabilitation agencies, organized labor,
community-based organizations, economic development agencies, and
the Employment Service.
Initially, the chief elected official--or in the case of a con-
sortium, by agreement among the chief elected officials--will
determine the size of , and appoint members to, the PIC. In any
SDA where there is only one unit of local government with
experience in administering job training programs , the chief
elected official of that unit shall appoint members to the PIC.
The mayor will appoint members to the PIC from a list of nomina-
tions submitted by a local general business organization. The
number of nominations must exceed the number of slots available by
50 percent. Non-private sector nominees must be submitted by the
appropriate groups to be represented. The PIC selects a chairman
from among the private sector members.
PIC members are to serve for fixed and staggered terms , with
vacancies to be filled in the same manner as the original appoint-
ments . A PIC may not he disbanded, nor may PIC members be
removed, except for cause. Once a PIC is established, it must be
certified by the Governor as meeting the criteria set forth in the
law.
Functions of the PIC - Once a PIC is certified, it will receive a
one-time only planning grant of up to $80 , 000 to begin work. In
partnership with the chief elected official, the PIC will
determine who develops the plan and who will be the recipient of
funds and administrator of the program in the SDA. The PIC, the
local government or local governmental agency, or any other entity
agreed upon by the PIC and the Mayor, may develop the plan and
operate the program. After the plan is approved by the PIC and
the chief elected official, it must be jointly submitted to the
Governor for review, comment, and approval.
-3-
If the PIC and the chief elected official are unable to reach
the Governor must mediate the differences. If no agree-
ment
the results from this mediation, the Governor must merge
affected SDA into one or more other SDA' s .
TRANSITION
Fiscal year 1983 (which began October 1, 1982) is .to be considered
a year of transition. During this period, employment training
programs for the disadvantaged will be. operated under existing
CETA law and regulations. At the same time, federal , state, and
local governments will be expected to gear up for implementation
of the new law.
The law requires the Secretary of Labor to publish, in final form,
rules concerning the establishment of SDA' s by January 1, 1983 .
Rules and regulations necessary for appointment and certification
of the PIC must be published by January 15 . By March 15,
regulations governing all aspects of programs for the disadvantaged
ed
must be published in final form.
with agreements PICsare expected to be in place, between PICs and
chief elected officials arrived at to meet the publishing and
submission requirements for plan approval, so that operations may
begin on October 1, 1983 under the new law.
JOB. TRAINING PLAN
The new law requires development of a two-year job training plan.
Do
To address the continual delay in annual appropriations for
Congress established a program year that will begin July 1 follow-
ingthe beginning of the fiscal year. While the new program will
be in operation beginning October 1, 1983 , the full two-year plan
will go into effect the following July 1, 1984 . This oplan, lh
modifications as necessary, will be in effect through June 30 ,
1986.
To accommodate the requirements of the new law, it is expected
-that Congress
will adopt a supplemental appropriation for the
first nine months of FY 1983 . Congress should also approve a
regular appropriation by October 1, 1983 , .to be allocated within
45 days of enactment and to be available for expenditure beginning
July 1, 1984 , thus, in effect, insuring forward funding.
The training plan must include (1) identification of the program.

local education and other public agencies, and labor organizations.
The final plan, or a summary, must be submitted to the Governor
for approval. . The 'Governor may disapprove a plan only if it fails
to comply with any of the following criteria: (1) failure -to take
corrective action for deficiencies found in audits or in meeting
performance standards; (2) the administrator of the program does
not have the capacity to administer the funds; (3) there are
inadequate safeguards for the protection of funds; (4) the plan
does not comply with the Act or with regulations; or (5) the plan
does not comply with the Governor ' s coordination and special • •
services plan. A Governor' s 'disapproval may be appealed to the
Secretary of Labor.
• Performance Standards - The Secretary of Labor will develop
performance criteria for evaluating training programs. For
adults, the basic measure of success will be an increase -in
employment and earnings and a reduction in dependency. Separate
criteria will be developed for youth programs and will be based on
competencies acquired and on. placement and retention in employ-
ment, The Governor will have the authority to modify federal
standards within limits, based on unique local conditions.
Failure to meet performance standards for two years, after
receiving technical assistance, will result in a reorganization or
replacement of the SDA.

x'UNDING/ALLOCATION FORMULA
The. only program for which Congress authorized a specific dollar
amount for FY 1983 was the Job Corps ($618 million) . All other
program funds will he determined through the appropriations
process in accordance with the Congress ' s First Budget Resolution.
The budget resolution permits an appropriation level between $3 . 2
and $3 . 7 billion for FY 1983 . The Job Training Partnership Act
allocates 78 percent of the total appropriation for state and
local programs for the economically disadvantaged--between $2. 4
and $2. 8 billion. Funding for the summer program and the
displaced worker program is yet to be determined.
The allocation formula for distribution among and within the
states is the same : one-third of the funds are to be allocated on
the basis of the relative number of unemployed individuals
residing in areas of substantial unemployment (areas with over 6 . 5
percent unemployment). ; one-third on the basis of the relative
excess number of unemployed .("excess number" defined as over 4 . 5
percent unemployment) ; and one-third based on the relative number
of economically disadvantaged individuals.
No state shall receive less than 90 percent of its prior year
funding. The 90 percent "hold harmless" provision does not apply
to SDA' s.
For displaced worker programs, the Secretary shall reserve up to
25 percent of the total appropriation for distribution to States
affected by mass layoffs, natural disasters, federal government
actions (such as closing or relocating a federal facility) , or for
areas of high unemployment or designated enterprise zones. The
remainder of the funds shall be divided among the states as
follows : one-third on the basis of the relative number of
individuals unemployed for 15 weeks or more; one-third on the
basis of the relative number of unemployed individuals; one-third
based on the relative excess number of unemployed.
-6-
LIMITATION ON CERTAIN COSTS
Seventy percent of the funds made available to SDA' s must be spent
on training activities, such as job search assistance, counseling,
remedial education and basic skills training, institutional skill
training, on-the-job-training (OJT) , training programs operated by
the private sector, etc. The remaining 30 percent is available
for support service (15 percent) , such as day care and transporta-
tion, and the costs of program administration (15 percent) .
One-half of the costs of work experience programs (public sector
OJT) and "try-out" employment for youth will be funded from the 70
percent funds for the first six months of participation in such
programs. SDA' s which have (a) an unemployment rate three percent
above the national average (10 . 1 percent) , (b) child care costs
which. exceed half of the 15 percent allowable for support
services, (c), transportation costs which exceed one-third of the
15 percent allowable for support services, or (d) a client
population which requires more than nine months of training, will
be eligible for a waiver of the 70/30 requirement. Allowances,
wages, and stipends are permissible expenditures from the 30
percent funds, unless a waiver is in effect. Under a waiver,
these costs may be paid from the 70 percent funds.
STATE ROLE
State Job Training Coordinating Council - The Governor shall
appoint the State Job Training Coordinating Counci:. One-third of
the membership of the State Council shall be comprised of
representatives from the private sector, including individuals
serving on local SDA PIC ' s . Not less than 20 percent of the
members of the Council shall be representatives of the state
legislature and state agencies; not less than 20 percent shall be
representatives of units or consortia or units of general local
government to be nominated by the chief elected officials of the
unit or consortia of units of local government; and not less than
20 percent shall represent the eligible population and the general
public, organized labor, community based organizations and
representatives of local education agencies .
Among its activities, the State Council shall recommend a
Governor ' s coordination and special services plan; recommend
substate service delivery areas for those areas which are
ineligible for automatic designation or for those areas which are
eligible but do not request such designation; plan resource
allocations; provide management guidance and review for all
programs in the State; and recommend variations in performance
standards.
Governor ' s Coordination and Special Services Plan -• The Governor
shall prepare an annual statement of goals and objectives for job
training and placement programs within the state to assist in the
preparation of the plan for the SDA and the locally-developed
plans for the Employment Service. This plan must also cover two
program years and must be approved by the Secretary of Labor.
-7- '
Incentive Grants - Six percent of each State's allocation must be
reserved to provide incentive grants to programs in SDA' s exceed-_
ing their performance standards. Should the Governor be unable to
spend the funds, they shall be earmarked for technical assistance
to improve the ability of SDA' s to meet performance goals.
Dislocated Worker Programs - Funds available to the State for this
program may be used to pay 50 percent of the cost of training,
retraining, job-search assistance, and other related programs
designed to assist dislocated workers secure employment. The
•
remaining 50 percent of costs must be non-federal matching funds.
States with unemployment above the national average shall have the
matching requirement reduced 10 percent for each one percent that
State-wide unemployment exceeds the national average. Unemploy-
ment compensation benefits paid to an individual participant may
be counted as non-federal matching funds.
State Education Coordination Grants - The Governor shall provide
funds to any State educational agency to provide services for
economically-disadvantaged individuals participating in training
programs. Such funds shall also be made available to facilitate
coordination of education and training services through
cooperative agreements between State education agencies and SDA
program administrators.

CITY OF 8.s.AKZ EE
January 27 , 1983
Mr. John Anderson, City Administrator
129 East First Avenue
Shakopee, Minnesota 55379
Dear Mr. Anderson:
As chairman of the Ad-Hoc Downtown Committee, I would like to request
the City Council to consider expanding the number of voting members
from nine to possibly 20.
I am requesting that the Committee have the possibilities of expansion
because as we move into different phases of redevelopment, I believe
one of the strengths will lie in the individuals that are committed
to the project and also the individuals that understand the redevelopment
process. I believe that by expanding the number of members on the
Committee, it will allow us to directly involve a greater number of
people who will be directly affected by the downtown development project
and also it will give more people in that affected area direct participation
in the redevelopment project.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely yours ,

Re: Legal Work for City of Shakopee
Dear John:
1 apologize for not communicating to you previously, but I thought
I better confirm with you the question of legal fees for any services you
wish to have our firm perform for the City in 1983.
In view of what has been occurring this year with respect to
municipal finances, we made a decision to keep our legal fees in 1983
identical to those charged in 1982, which, as you will recall, is $50.00
an hour. For any work done directly by paralegals or law clerks, those two
respective raters are $40.00 an hour and $'30.00 an hour. For work done
through the City but for developers and applicants which is passed through
as a cost to those developers or applicants, we will charge our usual and
customary fees which range from $72.00 an hour to $88.00 an hour depending
upon which attorney does the work. We will continue, of course, to itemize
any out-of-pocket expenses and costs we incur on your behalf and our mileage
charge for travel outside of Scott County on your behalf is 20c a mile.
Please call if you have any questions or wish to discuss these fees
any further. In line with the policy we have always maintained, all five of
the cities we represent, as well as the Scott County HRA and the Shakopee Public
Utilities Commission which we also consider municipal clients, are all being
charged fees at an identical hourly rate. Thank you.
Yours very truly,

RE: Resignation from Transportation Committee
DATE: January 17 , 1983
Introduction
The attached letter of resignation from the Shakopee Energy and
Transportation Committee was received from Loren Wolfe. The City
Council needs to accept this resignation and determine if a
replacement should be appointed.
Background
Resolution No. 1982 establishing the Energy and Transportation
Committee provides for seven to ten members to be appointed.
The City Council originally appointed eight members . Because
there was a quorum problem and some members had never attended,
the Committee opened a dialogue to encourage those members to
attend or resign. Mr. Wolfe has chosen to resign because he is
not involved with the transportation issue .
The Council can chose to replace Mr. Wolfe or not as the Committee
has the minimum seven members even after his resignation. The
quorum for a seven member committee is four ( instead of the pre-
vious five) which leads me to recommend keeping the Committee at
seven for the time-being. Also the Committee is in the middle
of the transit issue and may later move to other issues , for
which the Committee would seek different expertise. I will
also poll the Committee for their feelings on a new appointment .
Recommended Action
1 . Accept the resignation of Loren Wolfe from the Shakopee Energy
and Transportation Committee , effective immediately.
2 . Move not to appoint a replacement to the Energy and Trans-
portation Committee at this time .
JA/jms
NOTE: At its January 27 , 1983 , meeting the Energy and Transporta-
tion Committee concurred with the staff recommendation not
to appoint a replacement at this time.

Attention: Jeanne Andre
Reason: Energy and Transportation Committee
Dear Miss Andre,
Thank you for taking the time to keep me informed
on the progress of the Transportation Committee. I
must apologize to you and the other members for my
attendance. I can appreciate how frustrating it must
be for you all , particularily when facing a lack of
quorum. After careful consideration, I have decided
to resign from the committee. I believe the community
would be best served by someone who shared a closer
relationship with the MTC problem. As you know, my ex-
pertise is in energy conservation. My original concern
was to learn more of the Federal Grant Program, where
businesses may receive up to 50% matching funds for retro-
fitting their buildings with energy conservation im-
provements. Should the committee head in the energy
field in the future, I will hope that my resignation
will be reconsidered.
S ncerely d744i,

MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator
FROM: Jeanne Andre , Administrative Assistant
RE: MTC Trial Route Past Shakopee Elderly Highrise
DATE: January 28 , 1983
Introduction
Last year, in response to a citizen request , the Shakopee City
Council asked the MTC to adopt a route revision past the elderly
highrise on a trial basis . Scott Thompson of the MTC has now
written to ask if the Council wishes to discontinue this route
revision or adopt it permanently.
Background
Mr. Thompson called me and indicated there has been little response
to the route change ( few riders entering or exiting buses at the
highrise stop) . At my request he had MTC drivers take a survey
for a two week period in January, and they reported no passengers
boarding at the highrise stop.
The issue was presented to the Energy and Transportation Committee .
Many members of the Committee ride MTC buses . They commented that
there is one women who uses the highrise bus stop once or twice
each month, but the MTC ridership from the highrise has not increased,
probably because elderly residents aren' t interested in spending
ten or more hours downtown Minneapolis each trip. Most commuters
resent this route change as it increases the route by about five
minutes , with almost no increase in ridership.
The Committee recommended to City Council to discontinue the trial
alternate bus route past the highrise on Levee Drive , with the
possibility of a route change again once Levee Drive goes through
to Scott Street .
Requested Action
Request the MTC to discontinue the alternate route past the highrise
on Levee Drive or adopt it permanently.

129 East 1st Avenue
Shakopee, Minnesota 55379
Dear Ms. Andre:
Pursuant to our conversation of early January, I have requested MTC
drivers to chart the daily ridership on the Route #53S from the Shakopee
Senior Citizen Highrise area loop. Results for a two week period from
January 10 to January 24, 1983, have indicated no passengers boarding
along the senior citizen highrise portion of route.
I hope you find this information of value when considering the
continuation of this route extension. Should you have further comments
or questions concerning this item, please feel free to contact me at
221-0939, extension 212.

MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator

RE: Transportation Survey
DATE: January 28 , 1983
Introduction
The Energy and Transportation Committee seeks City Council approval
to undertake a telephone survey of community transportion needs ,
in order to effectively consider the legislative provision to opt
out of MTC service .
Background
The proposed survey instrument is attached for Council information.
It is designed to be short and direct and take only about five minutes
per respondent . A random list of about 500 Shakopee residents has
been taken from the telephone book to be surveyed. It is estimated
the list will require approximately 50 hours of volunteer/staff time
to complete .
The Committee has agreed to volunteer for this effort and solicit
other volunteers among their family, friends and current MTC bus
riders . A CETA worker is now working for the City (with no direct
City cost) . She will be able to help with the survey. In addition
I will be helping with the survey and possibly some other City staff
if they have time available . The survey is to be administered the
week of February 7-11 , with carry over to the next week if necessary.
The Council should comment on the format and procedures proposed for
the survey and whether they approve the process . I think it would
also be appropriate to authorize provision of light refreshments
such as coffee, pop and donuts in appreciation of the volunteer
efforts .
Requested Action
Authorize the Energy and Transportation Committee to conduct the
Transportation Survey as approved by the Committee at its January 27 ,
1983 , meeting, and authorize the provision of refreshments for
volunteers .

RE: Dram Shop Insurance Coverage as Required by Chapter 528 ,
Laws of 1982
DATE: January 27 , 1983
Introduction
Chapter 528 of Laws of 1982 requires every person or firm licensed
to sell intoxicating liquor or 3 . 2 beer at either on-sale or off-
sale , must "demonstrate proof of financial responsibility" under
the Dram Shop Law after March 1 , 1983 as a condition of the issuance
or renewal of his license . An exception to the requirement is granted
to licensed sellers of wine or 3 . 2 beer with sales of less than
$10 ,000 .00 for either beverage .
Background
See memo from Mr. Coller, City Attorney , attached.
Alternatives
a ) Require Dram Shop insurance for all licensees regardless of
dollar volume .
Pros Cons
1 . Establishment will have 1 . I understand this kind of
liability coverage . Having liability coverage is costly.
a dollar volume under $10 ,000
does not free one from
liability.
2 . Both the licensee and public
will be protected , financially. 2 . Because of costs , some
licensees maybe forced to
3 . Monitoring sales will not be give up renewing their
necessary by the licensee or license( s ) .
the City .
b) Do not require Dram Shop insurance for all licensees with sales
of less than $10,000.00.
Pros Cons
1 . Licensees with sales under 1 . Licensees will not have
$10 ,000 may save money if they liability coverage, while
chose not to have coverage. they could still be held
liable .
2 . Licensees who cannot aford
insurance costs will be able 2. Public would not be protected
to continue to hold a license( s ) . as well as licensee , if their
should be a law suit .

3 . Sales will have to be moni-

be impossible for City
officials to do so.
4 . What if a licensee thinks
he is under. $10 ,000 and it
turns out he is not? He
could be in the middle of
a law suit and have no
coverage. Both he and the
City , as it turns out , would
he in violation of the law.

I concur with the City Attorney , the most practical solution pro-
bably is to require Dram Shop insurance for all licensees regard-
less of dollar volume , eliminating City responsibility to check
the books of the licensee and the licensees responsibility to
report on dollar volume.
Action Requested
Direct staff to prepare the proper ordinance requiring Dram Shop
insurance for all intoxicating liquor licensees and 3. 2 non-
intoxicating licensees .

Mr. John Anderson
City Administrator-
Shakopee City Hall
Shakopee, Minnesota 55379
Dear Mr. Anderson:
In re: Dram Shop insurance ocverage as
required by Chapter 528, Laws of 1982
Chapter 528 of Laws of 1982 requires every person or firm licensed to
sell intoxicating liquor or 3.2 beerat either on-sale or off-sale, must
"demonstrate proof of financialresponsibility" under the Dram Shop Law
after March 1, 1983. An exception to the requirement is granted to licensed
sellers of wine or 3.2 beer with sales of less than $10,000.00 for either
beverage.
Financial responsibility can he shown by filing one of the following:
A. A certificate that there is in effect an insurance policy or pool
providing coverage of at least
1. $50,000.00 because of bodily injury to any one person,
$100,000.00 because of bodily injury to two or more persons and
an amount of $10,000.00 because of injury or destruction of property
of others in any one occurence.
2. $50,000.00 for loss of means of support of any one person in any one
occurence and subject to the limit for one person? $100,000.00 for
loss of means of support of two or more persons in any one occurence.
B. A bond of a surety company with minimum coverages as provided in clause A.
above.
C. A certificate of the State Treasurer that the licensee has deposited with
him $100,000.00 in cash or securities, which may legally be purchased by
Savings Banks or for trust funds having a market value of $100,000.00.
The proof of financial responsibility must be directed to the Commissioner of
Public Safety. However, it is the City which issues the license and which
presumably has the responsibility to revoke if no proof of financial responsi-
bility is submitted to the City and the Commissioner by March 1, 1983.
Operation of off-sale or on-sale business without having on file at all times
with the municipality the liability insurance policy required by MSA 340.11
Snbd 21 is grounds for immediate revucut ion of the license. MSA 340. 12.

To: John Anderson
In re: Dram Shop Insurance coverage
A problem is raised by the exemption of dispensaries of less than $10,000.00
worth of beer or wine. Practically speaking, for all but temporary licenses
it may be impossible for the City officials to determine wiether or at what
point a particular seller has taken in more than $10,000.00 from any parti-
cular kind of sale. The most practical solution from the City's stand point
may be to impose additional requirements under authority of MSA 340.11 Subd 17
and MSA 340.01, simply requiring Dram Shop insurance for all licensees
regardless of dollar volume. This step would eliminate any City responsibility
to check the books of the licensee and any responsibility of the licensees
to report on dollar volume.
If the City desires to impose the additional requirements above referred to,
it should be done without any delays so that any change in the Ordinance
would be effective before March 1 , 1983.
Very truly yours,
1

MEMO `I'0: Shakopee 3. 2 Beer License Holders -
FROM: Judith 'S . Cox , City Clerk
RE: Dram Shop Insurance Requirement
DATE: January 28 , 1 983
As you may or may not know a new state law, effective March 1 , 1983 ,
requires all off-sale and on-sale 3. 2 beer businesses to carry Dram
Shop insurance , when renewing or obtaining a license . An exception
to this requirement is granted to licensed sellers of wine or 3 . 2
beer with sales of less than $ 10 ,000.00 for either beverage .
Because there is no practical way to monitor sales , it would be dif-
ficult to determine whether or not they are over $10 ,000.00. Because
of this difficulty , it has been suggested to the City to simply
require Dram Shop coverage by all 3 . 2 beer licensees .
On February 1st , the Shakopee City Council will he discussing whether
or not to require all 3 . 2 beer licensees to carry Dram Shop insurance.
You are welcome to attend this Council meeting or feel free to give
me a call , if you have any suggestions or thoughts regarding this
matter .

MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator
RE: Animal Warden Contract Review
DATE: January 28 , 1983
Introduction
City Council had asked for data on the number of animals picked up
by the animal warden, the resultant charge to the City and the
amount of any reimbursement the City received when dogs are redeemed.
Background
The data collected for 1982 is attached and shows the City' s net
cost for 11 months was $2 ,706 .00. Also attached is the current
contract the City has with Bob McAllister and a 1980 staff memo
from Doug Reeder that recommended the present contract form.
I have checked with the Finance Department and Mr. McAllister' s
fees have not increased since the February 12 , 1980 contract was
signed. I contacted Mr. McAllister and invited him to the
February 1st Council meeting so he could review with Council the
services he currently provides the City under that contract.
Mr. McAllister mentioned that he had planned to contact the
City regarding the contract and the expense be incures for
boarding dogs .
Summary
Tv Council should plan to discuss with Mr . McAllister the contract ,
which remains in force until one of the parties provides 30 days
notice of cancellation. After the discussion, staff should be
directed to make any changes that are deemed necessary and present
the revised contract to Council at its February 15 , 1983 meeting.

MEMO TO: Mayor & City Council
FROM: Douglas S. Reeder , City Administrator
RE: Dog Catcher
DATE: January 31 , 1980
The current arrangement with the dog catcher is that the City pays
a flat per month charge and additional charges for pounding and picking
up dead animals , $310.00 per month or $3, 720 per year. In 1979 we
received revenues of $621 . 00 for dog licenses and $624.00 in fines .
The dog catching operation therefore costs the City approximately
$2 ,475 in 1979.
An alternative to that arrangement has been discussed with Mr.
McAI] Ister and could involve no monthly fee , but a fee for services
actually performed. These fees would be as follows :
$25.00 per dog or cat picked up
7 . 00 to pick up and bury dead animals
10. 00 to pick up and bury dead skunks
20. 00 to deliver an animal to the University of Minnesota
for rabies test
During 1979 he picked up a total of 138 dogs and an estimated
15 dead animals and an estimated 3 clogs were taken to the University
of Minnesota. I have attached a summary of 1979 for your information.
If this same trend continued our total charges for 1980 would be
as follows
$3, 750 for dog or cat pickup ( $25 each)
70 for pick up of dead animals ( $7 each)
50 for pick up of dead skunks ( $10 each)
60 to deliver dogs to University of Minnesota ($20 each)
$3, 930 Total Cost
The 1980 budgeted amount for dog catching is $2 ,000 while the
1979 budget was $4,400. You will recall at budget time you asked that
the amount be reduced because of dissatisfaction with what we are getting -
for the money spent . I believe the concept of paying on a per dog basis
is valid and I think we should try it to see how it works . It may or
may "not increase the number of dogs picked up and therefore the cost
to the City.
I have in addition explored the concept of entering into a joint
dog catching agreement with other Scott County communities and Scott
County who all use the same service. This will be explored for 1981
and hopefully some recommendations made by budget time in 1980.

RE: Agreement with John Nelson Regarding VIP Interceptor
Lateral Assessments
DATE: January 28 , 1983
Introduction
On August 18 , 1981 Council did not levy a lateral charge against
the John Nelson property for the VIP Sewer Interceptor because
they concurred with Mr. Nelson that it was not feasible for him to
hook up to the VIP Interceptor using it as a lateral , at the time
of construction. However, Council took this action with the under-
standing that : 1 ) if he did connect to the VIP directly, or 2 ) if
a lateral is constructed in another manner, he would then receive
a lateral charge . Council also directed that an agreement be made
with Mr. Nelson regarding a lateral assessment in the event of
future connection .
Back,ground
An agreement was sent to Mr. Nelson for his signature on October 19 ,
1982 . On Wednesday, January 26 , 1983 , Mr. Notermann, Mr. Nelson' s
attorney, informed Mr. Coller than he was going to advise Mr.
Nelson to sign the agreement and that he would return it to Mr.
Coller on Thursday. As of this writing the City does not have a
signed agreement from Mr. Nelson.
Alternatives
1 . Give Mr. Nelson more time to sign the agreement as drafted.
2 . Discuss with Mr. Nelson any changes he may be requesting and
come to some agreement .
3 . Assess Mr. Nelson' s property for the improvements .
Recommended Action
If Council desires to assess , adopt Resolution No. 2109 , declaring
the cost to be assessed and setting a public hearing date . Resolu-
tion 011 tca1/1c' .

RE: Park Dedication for Minnesota Valley 3rd
DATE: January 28 , 1983
Introduction
The park dedication agreement for Minnesota Valley 3rd Addition
provides that all moneys owed shall be due and payable on
February 15 , 1983 , if not paid earlier with building permits .
Background
Mr. Laurent has asked if this date could be extended. Last year
Council did authorize the extension of due dates for park dedica-
tion for East View, Furrie ' s 2nd, Valley Park 6th, Wiggin' s 1st ,
and Halo 2nd, because of the economic climate . Council directed
the agreements be extended to equal the number of years bonds are
sold for public improvements , which is usually 10 years .
Alternatives
1 . Require payment now.
2 . Authorize new agreement with a due date of February 15 , 1989.
Property was platted in 1979 . Developer put in his own
improvements .
3 . Authorize new agreement with some other due date .
Recommendation
Alternative No. 2 .

SUBJECT: Fifth Avenue - Spencer Str et to Fillmore Street
DATE : January 28, 1983
Introduction
On August 3, 1982 City Council ordered the Feasibility Report for the Improve-
ment of Fifth Avenue from Spencer Street to Fillmore Street. In preparing the
Feasibility Report, staff has encountered some design problems.
Background
The principal problem is the vertical alignment at the intersection of 5th and
Spencer. Fifth Avenue is technically a dead end street and therefore, the
approach to Spencer is critical from the standpoint of safety.
When the approach to Spencer Street is aligned for safety, that embankment
interferes with drainage from property south of 5th Avenue. When proper drainage
is achieved, the approach to Spencer is unacceptable.
There are several alternatives that would mitigate these design problems. All
of these alternatives require looking beyond the intersection of 5th Avenue
and Fillmore Street. City Council specifically ruled out those alternatives
when the Feasibility Report was ordered.
Alternatives
There are two alternatives at this point:
1. Staff can return the Feasibility Report now and conclude that
the project is not feasible, in a technical sense.
2. Staff can investigate alternatives beyond 5th Avenue and
Fillmore Street, which would make the project feasible in
a technical sense, but in a practical sense, not feasible
at this time because of other factors.
John K. Anderson January 28, 1983
5th Ave. - Spencer to Fillmore Page -2- 11
Staff recommends expanding the scope of the Feasibility Report to at least
determine what must be done to provide a safe and acceptable road system for
this area.
Action Requested
Direct staff to expand the Feasibility Report of Fifth Avenue - Spencer
to Fillmore to include alternatives beyond the intersection of 5th
Avenue and Fillmore Strett , in order to determine the future alignment
of 5th Avenue .

MEMO TO: Mayor. and City Council
FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator
RE: The City ' s Two Percent 429 Project Interest Surcharge
DATE: January 2,1 , 1983
Introduction
Last summer the Industrial Commercial Commission and City Council
reviewed our current policy of adding a 2% interest rate surcharge
to 429 project assessment resolutions . We currently assess home-
owners at an interest rate 2% higher than the interest rate we pay
on the bonds . The ICC recommended that the surcharge vary from
0-2% for all types of projects based upon an established criteria.
Council discussed this recommendation and directed staff to draft
a policy resolution establishing criteria for charging 1-2% for
various types of projects .
Implementation Problem
The process of drafting the resolution has been a lengthly one ,
and staff has come full circle in its thinking on this issue.
Neither staff nor Bob Pulscher, our financial advisor, could find
a "good" set of criteria for triggering either the 1 or 2% surcharge.
The only clear differential seemed to be between the risk the City
faced on unpaid assessments from vacant undeveloped land vs . the
risk we faced on developed land with tax paying businesses or homes
already on it .
The logic of this approach is attractive and hasn' t been tested in
court according to Bob Pulscher; however , both staff and Mr.
Pulscher feel it would be inappropriate to have different interest
rate surcharges for different projects all being financed by the
same bonds which would have only one rate of interest .
We can foresee a situation in which the City would be asked to
explain why assessment resolutions passed on the same night would
have different interest rates when the bonds sold for the two pro-
jects were from one issue with one interest rate . The appearance
of discrimination, regardless of the logic behind it , might cause
more harm than the good generated by the 1% interest we saved for
those property owners with the reduced interest rate .
Clarification of Other Surcharges
I probably contributed to the belief that something could be done
to relieve the additional cost of the 2% assessment surcharge by
not clearly outlining who was paying what charges in a construction
project . The checklist below clears up who pays what and when, and
is going into our Standard Operating Procedures ( S .O.P. ) .

Agent
( 1 )Based upon cost of 1.-4.
( 2 )The fiscal agent must know whether or not there is green acred
property involved in any 429 Project . The Finance Director is
responsible for getting him this information.
( 3 )The 2% is not part of the project cost , but a surcharge added
added to protect the City financially from: loss of interest
from prepayment of assessments when there is a low reinvestment
rate, deliquent assessment payments needed to pay bond install-
ments , reduce the need for the annual 5% advalorem tax levy
required by state law.
(4)This 5% certified levy is not paid by the people or developer
benefiting from the project . It is a general city-wide advalorem
tax required by law to protect the bond holders for the same
reasons as cited in #3 above. It can be annually cancelled if
there is sufficient balance in the bonds debt service fund.
Shakopee has not regularly cancelled this levy.
The City' s Two Percent 429 Project Interest Surcharge
i / S
Page Three
January 21 , 1983
If the City is truly interested in making a project pay for itself
then it should utilize to a maximum the 2% assessment interest rate
surcharge , because it assists in generating a debt service fund balance
in the first 3-4 years so the City can annually cancel the 5% advalorem
tax in future years..
Alternatives
1 . Again direct staff to draft a resolution establishing criteria
for imposing either a 1 or 2% assessment interest rate surcharge.
The purpose of this was to reduce the high interest rates that
drive up improvement costs to residents and developers .
2 . Establish a flat assessment interest rate surchage for all 429
projects of 1% (or 12%) . Bob Pulscher stated that all Springsted
clients impose "some" assessment interest rate surcHaTge. The
reason for a reduction would be the same as in alternative No. 1 .
3 . Keep the present 2/ assessment interest rate surcharge because
today, more than ever, the City needs to protect itself from
delinquent assessments and defaulting developers .
Recommendation
Bob Pulscher and staff (City Clerk, Finance Director and City Admin-
istrator) recommend alternative No. 3 .
Action Requested
Foward this memo and its recommendations to the ICC for their infor-
mation indicating that Council has decided to retain the 2% assess-
ment interest rate surcharge policy.

MEMORANDA

City Administrator

City Engineer ,_---
SUBJECT: Deans Lake
DATE : January 26, 1983
Introduction
The Planning Commission has transmitted to my office an interest in establishing
the ordinary high water mark for Deans Lake.
Background
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources is responsible for establishing
the ordinary high water mark for public waters within the State.
The Department of Natural Resources will establish the ordinary high water
mark for a variety of reasons; one of those reasons is upon request of the
local jurisdiction.
Attached Resolution No. 2107 requests that the Minnesota Department of
Natural Resources establish the ordinary high water mark for Deans Lake.
This resolution is recommended because with increased flow into the Lake, it
will become more important to know the relative elevation of that ordinary
high water mark as land around the lake developer. In order for that develop-
ment to occur in a safe and orderly manner, it is important for staff to know
the ordinary high water mark.
Action Requested
Adopt Resolution No. 2107, A Resolution Requesting That The Minnesota Department
Of Natural Resources Establish The Ordinary High Water Mark For Deans Lake.
