Lebens , Leroux, Vierling, Colligan and Wampach present. Also present were Ken Ashfeld, City Engineer; Judith S. Cox, Acting City Administrator; and Julius A. Coller II , City Attorney. Colligan/Lebens moved to open public hearing on Proposed improvement of Street Rehabilitation within Timber Trails Addition. Motion carried unanimously. The City Engineer explained to the audience that the roadways in Timber Trails Addition were constructed in 1976 and due to inadequate pavement cross-section and a weakening of the roadway subgrade the road is failing. The three alternatives available are ( 1) to rehabilitate the roadways in the Timber Trails Addition, and put a bituminous overlay over the entire project area, ( 2 ) continue maintenance procedures that have been done in the past few years, ( 3 ) do nothing. The estimated total cost of the project is $144 ,265 . 68 . The City' s policy_ for funding for rehabilitation in roadways is 25% of the cost is to be assessed and the 75% of the cost is to be a city wide cost on the general levy tax, of that 25% the City will grant a credit for public improvement if the roadway does not last its expected lifetime which for a roadway is 20 years. There are 45 assessible lots and each lot would be assessed $641. 18 . Cncl. Leroux asked if it would be feasible to drain the roadbed to which the City Engineer replied that it would not be feasible because of the very silty clays present. Phil Johnson, real estate broker, representing Shakopee Investments , asked who constructed the road originally and if it would be the same contractor and if there is any liability on the part of the contractor. The City Engineer replied that now it will have to be by public bid and whoever is the low bidder will get the job. There is no liability on the part of the original contractor. The assessed $641. 18 will be assessed over a period of 10 years which would amount to approx- imately $100 per year, per lot. Dan O' Connell, owner of one of the unplatted lots asked why there is no credit proposed for these unplatted lots. The City Engineer replied that when the feasibility study was done they looked at the property as it lies right now and there is no credit proposed. When the road was originally constructed only lots within the subdivision paid for the road. Mr. O' Connell explained that they gave one-half of the land for the road on that side. Mr. O' Connell also questioned whether or not the parcel could accommodate six lots. Dennis Lang, Lot 1, Block 4 , asked if the property northwest of the roadway is being assessed. The City Engineer answered that they were being assessed for Outlot A, the same assessment as everyone else. Shakopee City Council May 27 , 1986 _ Page -2- Discussion ensued on how long the roadway will be bonded or guaranteed and if there would be a possibility of having it guaranteed more than 1 year to which the answer was there would probably be no bidders because there are some factors which may occur that the contractors would have no control over. Sue Anderson, 1457 Woodduck Trail expressed concern over the fact that fire trucks and school buses will not be ableto use this road. The City Engineer responded that after the improvements are made the only restrictions would be possibly _ in the spring for some vehicles. Valdimir Sokolov, 1424 Woodduck Trail, asked what was being bought essentially with this $144 , 265 . 18 . Braun Engineering did the testing, they are experts in analyzing soils and construction materials and they made the recommendations of what should be done . to provide for a 7 ton roadway. Fred Smith, 1463 Lakeview Drive, asked how the assessments on his storm sewer related to this assessment. The Engineer answered that there is no correlation at all between this project and the storm sewer assessment. Peter Shutrop, questioned the laying of a bituminous overlay over the road if you don' t have a good base. Mayor Reinke asked if there was anyone from the audience who wished to address this issue. There was no reply. Colligan/Wampach moved to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. Leroux/Wampach offered Resolution #2561, A Resolution Ordering an Improvement and the Preparation of Plans and Specifications for Timber Trails Road Improvements Project No. 1986-5 and moved for its adoption. Roll Call: Ayes: Unanimous Noes : None Motion carried. Mayor Reinke stated that since the Resolution #2561 has passed, a set of specifications will be put out for bid.

Leroux/Lebens moved to open public hearing on Proposed Improvement of Roadways serving platted property in the Montecito Heights lst and 2nd Additions. Motion carried unanimously. Shakopee City Council May 27 , 1986 Page -3- The City Engineer addressed the audience stating that a feasibility report done addresses two specific improvements on this roadway ( 1) structural improvements and ( 2 ) drainage improvements. The original plans for the subdivision called for future curb and gutter which would improve the drainage and its impact on the structure capabil- ities of the road. There are three alternatives ( 1 ) to rehabilitate the roadway in Montecito Heights 1st and 2nd Addition by bituminous overlay or to rehabilitate the roadway in the Montecito Heights 1st and 2nd Addition by the addition of curb and gutter and bituminous overlay, ( 2 ) continue maintenance of the roadway ( 3 ) do nothing. The total estimated cost of this project not taking into account the curb and gutter is $18 , 339 . 41. 250 of this cost is assessed to the property owners with a 5% credit per year for roadways that do not last their full expected lifetime. The assessment costs for 1st Addition will be $282 . 14 which includes lot 2 , block 2 of the 2nd Addition. The assessment costs for the 2nd Addition will be $352 . 68 per lot. The estimate for the total boulevard restoration with curb and gutter will be $37 , 090 . 97 . The assessment costs per lot for Addition 1 will be $570 . 63 and 2nd Addition will be $713 . 29 . DuWayne Erickson, 1771 Montecito Drive stated that he felt they did not need those improvements on the road and would rather see city gas come out. Ted Bodeen, 1783 Montecito Drive, asked what the projection is of future city sewer coming out to the Addition. The City Engineer explained that this area is outside the metro area: service are and it would be some time. Gene Erkenbrack, 1767 Montecito Drive, stated that there is no need for curb and gutter out there and thereis only one small spot that is broken up. The City Engineer explained that the street is cracking in the lst Addition and if something isn' t done it will continue to break up. The consensus of the audience was that there was no need for curb and gutter or rehabilitation of the roadway structure. If it was the wishes of the Council, the City Engineer explained that for less dollars we could do maintenance above and beyond what is expected to be done on a normal street pavement preservation program which would be to replace the cracked blacktop and remove 342 square yards and replace it with bituminous patching and then seal coat. Discussion ensued on the need to have water studies done on the wells in that Addition. There are several contaminated wells with nitrate in the water.

These bikes are not street legal, driven on the streets by juveniles, and I believe violate the city noise ordinance . In the past months these motorcycles have been driven almost daily in the area of Van Puran St. from 11th to 12th and many times to the fields off 12th st leading out of the city proper. The times have varied from 7:00 A.M. to late L. evening. I believe it i.s difficult for your officers to apprehend them and I would suggest an ordinance change to barr all off road vehicles within the city for safety and noise reasons. Thank you , tarry Moonen. L LARRY MOONED 1698 12th Ave. Vilest SHAKOPEE, MN 55379 (612) 445-1395 MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Judi Simac , City Planner RE: Appeal by Edward Colmer of decision of the Planning Commission - C.U. P. 0450 DATE: June 6 , 1986 introduction: At the May 22 , 1986 meeting the Planning Commission denied the request by Edward Colmer for a conditional use permit to operate an amusement helicopter ride business on property east of ValleyFair, north of T.H. 101. The decision has been appealed by the applicant. Background Please find attached the following information related to the application: 1. Minutes of the May 6th and May 22nd 2 . Staff reports to the Planning Commission 3 . Information provided by the applicant. Staff has received many letters from local residents in opposition to the granting of conditional use permits for helicopter services within the City limits. These letters are on file at City Hall for Council review and I expect many of the residents to attend the public hearing. Significant to the application is the fact that the U.S. Dept. of Fish and Wildlife has purchased from the developer of the Prairie House lst Addn. the property where the proposed 'helicopter business is proposed to operate. Therefore the application is invalid because the applicant no longer has the permission of the property owner to conduct the business. Action Reauested: Offer Conditional Use Permit Resolution of the City Council No. -CC 450 and move for its denial. tw 1_:a_ ie-s- .!eu 7,;/ c n I I, r X I, tD+IE: t i 3 a�­ I C)f + r -) -:-I t r e 7=1 e n fi S S re,Tlew and C ny r 7 ny a"I j eI 4 e r a _L v L, 4 ­ 'a Cre 0 _a US, Dn_ bus:*__,­_s_- .i-,)on the ,)rc­=r+y loco t(, -StOf 'M se-e— Lfrk on -:tate 7-4-1- 7' iner t tIt h.;e _1a- Zcd L-Late app_'i cant I s Lnt ent-,cn 45 to c-)nduct heliccpter rides for 4 :ton-Lhs (T:ay -,- fro-n 10:00 @.m. 15 - 73eptemlber 1:;) dail e:00 im. �__h-e operation Conzists of a par"I:-ing area. -ror 1C C s an d ,anLI-Drig -,,ad area. rhe proposed location ;s the 5o acre lradforo' I - W - - -L, property which has been platted as --lirairie -;c, L,L,torne,�r :70 . nnis Felix, atfor Edward Colmer, the applicant, of 210 liverviei-,, 14 rc--'e, Burnsville, stated that 3-rr. lolme-r hid pre-)_�red a fact demonstration to be included for the record.

The proposed location is the 58 acre Bradford property which has been platted as Prairie House Addn. The plat has not yet been filed due to the r-o-w acquisition process. Access to this property from T.H. 101 was a major issue in the platting process and it obviously has not been resolved. 3 . The applicant charges $10 . 00/person for a five minute ride. He has secured a $600 , 000 insurance policy from Associated Underwriter Service. The City Clerk recommends a certificate cf insurance be placed on file with the City.

The Fire Chief requires that information on fuel storage be provided, if approved. Recommendation: Staff recommends denial of the Conditional Use Permit for the following reasons: 1. The establishment of the conditional use will impede the normal development of vacant property in the vicinity. 2 . Adequate access to the site is not being provided. 3 . Adequate measures have not been taken to ensure that dust and noise will not constitute a nuisance. 4 . The use will cause traffic hazard and congestion. S . Existing uses nearby (MN.

This consent is conditioned upon your working with the FAA Tower Chief at Flying Cloud Airport to insure that your operation does not conflict with airspace around Flying Cloud Airport. I know you have already met with Bob Palmby, the tower chief, and worked out an agreement as there is no conflict for which I thank you and ask that you continue to work with him in the future. I also understand you will write me a letter requesting use of Flying Cloud or Airlake Airports if you decide to use one of those airports in the future. Good luck with your endeavor, fly safe and let me know of any problems or questions so we can clear them up.

Mr. Bradford, the property owner, will put a frontage road across the south side of his 58 acres. See Exhibit "H" , a self-explanatory letter from Fred Kopp, granting me access from his property next door to the East. Adeeuate access to the site IS being provided. 3. I will place on file with the City of Shakopee a certificate demonstrating liability insurance in an amount not less than $6009000.00. Enclosed please find Exhibit "r" , a letter of operation agreement which has been signed by both the FAA Flying Cloud Tower Manager and myself. Enclosed please find Exhibit "G" , a map of the proposed helicopter tour, as requested by the Flying Cloud Tower Manager. The proposed tour route has accepted by the Tower Manager. 4. Valley Helicopters, Inc. will contract with Satellite Industries to provide two portable restrooms, one for MEN, and one for WOMEN. Satellite was chosen because they will come to the site to pump and clean them on a regular basis, thereby, keeping them odor free. There Will be restroom facilities on the site. 5. There will be NO fuel stored on the property. The helicopter will be fueled from my fuel truck. The truck will be removed from the site each night after closing. UNDER "REC OM'sE�'?�ATI CN"s 1. All property available to developing in the close vicinity of the site is owned by Mr. Bradford. As the property owner, he signed my Conditional Use Permit, thereby showing his non-concern for any impedence of the normal development of the vacant praperty in the vicinity. Mr. Bradford told me that any development of his property will net commence before September 15, 1936, the date my tour business will be finished . No other property is being developed closer than one-half mile from the permit site. Cont'd. on Page 2 Page 2 This has already been addressed in 17"DER "C( NSI7ERAT1. 'S" , item 7. ')ust Controls Mr. Colmer will Iay a black dirtbase with cultured sod on ton in a 75' R 75' take—ofd' and landing dad to insure that there will be "0 dust -b_owing around the area. The remainder of my leased land is grassy field sod . '"no only dirt is a.,pr)ximately one—quarter of a mile North of the site. I will be from 2LOI—2501 above this field and YOT flying even close to it. Refer to Exhibit "H11 about dust concern. Yoise Controls Noise is measured by how close you are to the source. The two items which affect noise are source and distance. The "rule of thumb" about r.^ise is ' if you double the distance from the source, you reduce the noise by ore—half' . FreGuq-^y of noise is very noticible. Higher frecuency ncices, such as the whire of a jet ergine, are more irritating to the human ear than a low frer,,:ency noise, such as the hum of a helicopter ergine. Decibels, the meas-.irement of roise, does n:t always reflect this pre erly. At any rate, the helicopter that would be used at this site will be muffled. to about cre—half the noise level of the dozens of 13—wheeler semi trucks that n_ass this site every hour on State righway 101. See Exhibit "I" about helicopter noise levels and the comparisons to different objects, The helicopter that I will be using here will be equipped with a 1461 FAA a^proved muffler system-costing !29200.00,. I was installed by a FAA licenced Airframe and Powerplant (A & P) mechanic to abate over 90% of the ergine exhaust noise. See Exhibit "J", page 1 and 2 of noise levels with the 1461 muffler system. Also refer to Exhibit "H" about noise concern. My giving helicopter tours at this site will cause absolutely NO more conjestion on State Highway 1: 1 . In fact, I feel that my business could possible relieve the traffic conjestion. There is a 101 blacktop plus a 4' gravel shoulder added to the already double lane. This 14' is plenty wide enough to pull off to make a right turn into the Kopp driveway. Any cars turning should not restrict the normal flow of traffic, thereby causing neither a traffic hazard nor a conjestion.. When in operation, any traffic conjestion is caused by Raceway Park, Valleyfair, Canterbury Towns, and Murphy' s Landing, NOT by my helicopter business being there. On the north side of Valleyfair' s big blacktop parking lot is a big gravel lot used for overflow and camper parking. This dirt lot is the dust maker in the area , not the helicopter. Valleyfair does not seem to be too concerned about this dust, and also, I will be one—half mile away from Valleyfair. George Munchow, Director of Shakopee Parks and Recreation, told me that the Minnesota Valley Trail is nor.—existant behind Valleyfair and the Kopp property as of right now. It is impossible for this Trail to be adversely affected by dust and noise. Again, refer to Exhibit "H" , about Kopp' s opinion about d ;st ar_d noise.

Data Excerpts Accoustics Data 16 206B JetRanger III 7 May 1986 EXCERPTS ON HELICOPTER NOISE Reference: Product Data, Bell 206B JetRanger III, Serial No. 3567 and Subsequent, February 1983 The Allison 250-C20J engine has only one difference from the earlier 250-C 20B model. The gear mesh from the power-take-off to the torque- meter has been changed to raise the pitch of the gear noise from 5, 000 to 6, 000 hertz . This new frequency reduces cabin noise because the higher pitch does not transmit as easily. The change is worth- while because it reduces the high frequency noise in the cabin by about 20 decibels - a significant improvement in the comfort level. Soundproofing blankets are installed on the -cabin ceiling and behind the parcel shelf. These are made of a fiberglass batting filling with a quilted cover. The soundproofing blankets for the cabin ceiling are covered with plastic headliners having soft fabric inserts. A one-piece trim unit covers the soundproofing blanket in the parcel shelf area. l� 206B JetRanger III 7 May 1986 ACCOUSTICS DATA During normal flight conditions-including takeoff, hover, and landing of the helicopter-an observer out-of-doors at a distance of 500 feet would experience a noise level in the range of 67 to 76 dBa (a-weighted noise level in decibels) . During acceleration (worst condition) of a city bus or light truck, an observer out-of-doors at a distance of 500 feet would experience a noise level in the range of 63 to 65 dBa. At a distance of 50 to 100 feet, the observer would experience a noise level in the range of 76 to 88 dBa. Noise level information for large, heavy trucks is not available for comparison. However, one person remembered that the Depart- ment of Transportation imposes a limit of 96 decibels inside the cab of the truck. t MEMO TO: Shakopee Planning Commission l v FROM: Judi Simac, City Planner RE: C.U.P. #450 - Edward Colmer helicoper ride business DATE: May 19 , 1986 Background: At the May 8 , 1986 meeting the Commission approved a motion to continue the public hearing on conditional use permit no. 450 to May 22nd in order for the applicant to provide additional information on safety.

Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Judi Simac, City Planner RE: Comprehensive Sewer Plan Amendment DATE: June 6 , 1986 Introduction- At their June 5 , 1986 meeting the Planning Commission approved a motion to recommend to the City Council that a Comprehensive Sewer Plan Amendment be submitted to the Metropolitan Council which will expand the year 2000 sewer service area south, to the northerly line of the TH 101/169 By Pass and east to the City limit. In addition, based on testimony received at the public hearing, the Planning Commission approved a motion to recommend to the City Council that a proposed request for annexation of property within Jackson Township be considered for sewer service, with the use of land trades. Background: The Metropolitan Council staff has responded to the sewer service land area calculations submitted by the City. They made adjustments which resulted in a credit of about 62 acres. The year 2000 land supply figure they have calculated for Shakoee is 1, 902 acres. This figure is accurate and satisfactory to staff. what the 1, 902 figure means is that 384 more acres can be opend up for sewer service. The number is determined as follows: Open land 1980+ = 490 ac. Open land = 722 ac. Alt. Area A ( residential 5/86 amendment) = 306 Total = 1518 1902 - 1518 = 384 Staff has indicated to the Met Council that the City would like to open up all land north of the proposed by-pass and extend to the east City limit. Excluded from the acreage calculations will be the undevelopable land such as the Shiely pit, NSP substation and the railroad r-o-w. The Met Council has indicated that they will look favorably upon natural/physical boundaries and be flexible with acreages. At the public hearing, Earl Dahlberg requested that his 150 acres in Jackson Twp be included in the plan amendment. Mr. Dahlberg indicated that he plans to proceed with the petition for annexation into Shakopee. In reaction to this commend the Planning Commission expressed an interest in balancing the amendment with additional residential land to the west and less industrial/ commercial to the east. However no plan amendment can be submitted for the Jackson Twp area until it is part of the City. The use of land trades or staging of the sewer service area is a good possibility in this case. If the City Council wishes to keep the option of more residential land open, then some of the land area to the east can be designated as land trade area. Therefore if the annexation becomes a reality, sewer availability can be shifted to serve it. Most important is to identify the negotiable land areas now, in the proposed amendment, so land owners don' t accuse the City of giving them sewer availability and then taking it away. Alternatives : 1. Submit the plan amendment as proposed (attachment) 2 . Submit a plan amendment which has staged areas, in order to use land trades if the annexation becomes a reality. 3 . Postpone submittal of a plan amendment until annexation can be considered further. 4. Other Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends alternative #2 . Staff will prepare for the June 10th meeting an exhibit which illustrates possible areas to be placed in the "land trade" category. Action Requested: Direct staff to submit a Comprehensive Sewer Plan Amendment to provide sewer service to the year 2000 . tw X Ry \ r`� TTl W 1-4> n ,o cn -mu T;7 --., \� F- CITY OF 1�SM/MOP rt I I• _IN ANNcli 3z I- CITY OF IM/MOPEF --.�— -CITY OF PRIOR LAME 1 ilk a O rnV ii 1 Y c� Z • , — k rTv a rn rn 4 C.n Z7 + � I V If 10 01111 h i - •' lam st — I: '4 t�M11lYEali;��� � £PioieeiMiiiiiiirr; ;! i �;1 — `v? � I• — -� _ - /,?ki _ •:mac 5F LF S I•T �t j --_ i1 ! t'�! !a eel==� I i CITY OF'SM/MOPES ZZ i Y CITY Of S/!KE — nn X V � -�- ' JF MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Judi Simac, City Planner RE: Amending City Code to Allow Mobile Homes in Ag District DATE: June 6 , 1986 Introduction: The City Council has directed staff to prepare an ordinance which shall amend Section 11. 05 , Subd. 8 of the City Code to enable persons unrelated to the farm operator to live in a mobile home on a farm, if they are employed by that farm. Background: In order to amend the City Code, the Planning Commission must conduct a public hearing to consider the amendment. Following the public hearing the Planning Commission forwards a recommendation to the City Council. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the Planning Commission is July 10 , 1986 , therefore that is the soonest date that the amendment can be considered. Staff intends to place a legal ad for the July 10th hearing date. In regard to the State law, which governs manufactured homes, pre-empting the City' s mobile home requirements, the Building Official has informed me that he reauires the mobile units or manufactured housing to have the HUD Seal to be acceptable. tw L� MEMO TO: John K.

BACKGROUND: The following is a summary of costs presented : Current Project Cost $208, 006. 16 Future Lateral Cost (Laurent ) $ 46, 343. 00 Future Service Cost (Schmitt) $ 3, 600. 00 Total Future Project Cost $257, 949. 16 Total Amount Assessed $236, 500. 86 Laurent Schmitt Total Project Cost Assessment $118, 138. 10 $6, 875. 84 Current Assessment Amount $10Q, 315. 00 $6, 304. 86 Total Project Cost Adjustment $ 9, 823. 10 $ 570. 98 Cost from Project Fund $3S, 519. 90 $3, 029. 02 Property Owner Cost ( percentage) 21. 20% 15. 86% Project Fund Cast (percentage) 78. 80% 84. 14% Bo Spurrier did indicate to me that the installation of the lateral crossings to the Laurent property was discussed at the time the assessments were calculated and the assessment role developed. It was agreed that the cost should be part of the project, but due to the unknown location of the lateral cros- sings, it was mutually agreed to by Laurent and Bo to install the crossings at some future date. It was felt that the fund had adequate dollars in the future to fund this work. ALTERNATIVES: Various alternatives were presented in the May 29, 1986 memo. Eagle Creek Junction June 5, 1986 Page E RECOMMENDATION : Since the mutual decision to delay installation of the laterals may have increased the estimated future cost of laterals above that of the theoretical fund balance and since the future casts at this point are an estimate (except for one crossing) , I recom- mend a participation of the future cast as presented in the preceeding cost summary. REQUESTED ACTION : 1. Move to direct the appropriate City Officials to enter into a developers agreement with Laurent Builders, Inc. whereby the City will participate in 78. 80% of the cost of one water and sewer lateral crossing of Eagle Creek Boulevard to the proposed Eagle Creek. Junction Plat and 78. 80% of the future cost of a maximum additional three sewer and water lateral cry.ssings of Eagle Creek Boulevard to the remaining Laurent Builders, Inc. property, cost of such participation to be taken from the Special Assess- ment Fund. L. Move to direct staff to inform Mr. Howard Schmitt that the City will participate in 84. 14% of the future cost of a sewer service crossing of Eagle Creek Boulevard, cost of such participation to be taken from the Special Assess- ment Fund. KA/pmp MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Ken Ashfeld, City Engineer `�- �' SUBJECT: Eagle Creek. Junction DATE: May 29, 1986 INTRODUCTION: At the May 20, 198E regular meeting, Council discussed a request from Laurent Builders to install sewer and water lateral con- nections across Eagle Creek Boulevard (CSAR 16) . Council di- rected staff to return with information that answers the fol- lowing questions : 1. What amount was assessed? 2. What were the actual cost breakdowns, i. e. , litigation, right-of-way, etc. ? 3. How has litigation costs been handled in the past as it relates to assessable project cost? 4. How do other Cities handle assessments for utilities paralleling one side of a road but assessed to prop- erties on both sides? BACKGROUND: I have researched available information in an attempt to answer the questions presented. 1. Total amount assessed was $23E, 500. 8E. 2. The following is a cost breakdown based upon my inter- pretation of each expenditure for the project. I did have to make some assumptions, based upon time frames, as to what was normal legal, administration, and engineering costs and what costs were attributed to litigation of right-of-way, construction claims and assessments. Construct ion $139, 5S7. 73 Right-of-Way $ 17, 300. 00 Legal & Administration $ 12, 798. 99 Engineering $ 21, 763. 21 Bonding & Fiscal $ 6, S71. 24 Litigation $ 9. 884. 99 TOTAL PROJECT COST $208, 00E. 1E Eagle Creek Junction May '29, 198E Page Difference between act ua1 protect cost and assessed cost is $28, 494. 70 3. Based upon past practices of assessing litigation costs, I could riot substantiate a firm policy regarding apportionment of assessed costs. Typically right-of- way costs and associated appraisals and legal costs are considered project costs since this is determined in advance of project implementation. I would not say that this is a firm policy though. Staff is riot farniliar with a policy providing for amending assess- merits due to legal costs associated with assessment appeals. 4. I did speak with neighboring communities on methods of assessing utilities parallel to a roadway serving benefit to properties on both sides of the roadway. The following is a summary of assessment criteria: a. Differing rates for each side of the roadway is impractical and difficult at best to substan- tiate consistency of assessment procedures. b. Laterals (or services in the case of single lot development ) are installed originally with the trunk based on one service per lot or one lateral per parcel or platted street. C. If laterals or services are not installed with the trunk, cost of proposed future laterals and services are assessed over project area. In the case of one neighboring community, services were riot installed nor future costs assessed. The community was prepared to install services, since all properties were assessed equally but a change of land use preempted this action. Alt ernat ives: In analyzing possible alternatives, the following questions should be answer-ed. a. Is benefit approximately equal or consistent over all assessed properties? b. Since the period for contesting assessment is long past, does this preclude further actions? Eagle Creek Junction May 29, 198E Page 3 C. Since the City did not formally act on previCIus staff actions, are previous actions invalid? The following are possible alternatives: 1. Do Nothing. ^c. Agree to install four water and sewer lateral crossings as requested. 3. Negotiate a compromise. 4. Install requested crossings and re-assess the original project area. If the asnwer to the above questions is yes then alternative I would be appropriate. If the answer- is no, then alternative 2 or 3 would be appropriate. To implement alternative 4, the City would have difficulty proving benefit to properties on the north side of Eagle Creek Boulevard. RECOMMENDATION: If Council agrees to install four crossings for Eagle Creek Junction, I recommend that a service also be installed to the Howard Schmitt property, thereby, providing total equity. The cost of this action, as stated in a previous memo, would be approximately $46, 3,43. 00 + $3, 600. 00 totaling $49, 94-3. 00. Since $28, 494. 70 theoretically remains in the fund balance, approxi- mately $21, 448. 30 would require outside funding. If Council believes that all fund costs should be project cost and assessed appropriately, I recommend the following compromise. Project Cost to Date $208, 006. 16 Requested Crossing Cost (Approximately) $ 49, 943. 00 Total Future Project Cost $257, 949. 16- Laurent 257, 949. 16,Laurent Builders assessment responsibility based on Future Pro- ject Cost . . . . . $118, 138. 10. Current assessment amount filed on property owned by Laurent Builders . . . . $108, 315. 00. Additional assessed cost to Laurent Builders if all costs are project, costs . . . . $9, 823. 10. Howard Schmitt assessment responsibility based on Future Project Cost . . . . $6, 875. 84 Eagle Creek Junction May 29, 198E Page 4 Current assessment amount filed on property owned by Howard Schmitt . . . . $6, 304. 8C. Additional assessed cost to Howard Schmitt if all costs are project costs . . . . $570. 98. In summary, the aforestated compromise would provide for the fund balance to pay a portion of future project cost (78. 80 % in the case of Laurent & 84. 14% in the case of Schmitt ) and each property owner pay a portion of future project cost (21. 20% in the case of Laurent & 15. 86% in the case of Schmitt ) . RECOMMENDED ACTION; Council to consider alternatives and recommendations and provide direction to staff as to desired actions. KA/pmp ECJ MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Judith S.

Anderson, City Administrator I FROM: Judith S. Cox, City Clerk RE: Fox Run 1st Addition - Developers Agreement DATE: June 5 , 1986 Introduction Since the preparation of the standard developers agreement for Fox Run lst Addition, it has become apparent that a revised developers agreement would better serve the needs of the City and be less cumbersome for the developer. Background One of the conditions of plat approval was the execution of a developers agreement to provide for the park dedication, instal- lation of electricity, and construction of street improvements when petitioned by either the developers or the future owners of Lots 1 and 2 , with the developer waiving all rights to a hearing on the proposed assessment. Using the standand developers agreement became cumbersome when the developer is petitioning for the improvements, but they won' t be installed until either the developer or future property owners actually ask the City to construct them. The standard developers agreement requires that a letter of credit be placed on file with the City for the improvements or that the assessment for the improvements, OR ESTIMATED ASSESSMENT, be paid prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. There is one lot which has not yet been built upon. Under the standard developers agreement, the estimated cost of the street construction would have to be paid prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy for this lot or a letter of credit would have to be placed on file and renewed every six months indefinitely. In the attached developers agreement, the developers are: a) petitioning for the street improvements and are waiving their rights to public hearings and contesting the assessments, b) agreeing to pay for installation of electricity whether or not served by SPUC and c) agreeing to paying park dedication. There is some question as to whether or not they would be served by SPUC. Although this developers agreement is not backed up by a letter of credit or agreement to pay assessments at 150% prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy, it puts future property owners on notice of the three future encumbrances . Because this is only a two lot plot, the future encumbrances will affect only one property owner for electricity and park dedication and only two for street construction. I believe the revised developers agreement is more practical than the standard developers agreement, since the City has agreed not to construct the street until the developer or property owner requests it. The recommendation of a revised developers agreement came from the Assistant City Attorney. Alternatives a. No developers agreement. b. Standard developers agreement. c. Revised developers agreement. d. Amend standard or revised developers agreement. Recommended Action Approve a revised developers agreement, versus the City' s standard developers agreement, for Fox Run 1st Addition, approved by the Assistant City Attorney.

Anderson, City Administrator ra �, FROM: Ken Ashfeld, City Engineer SUBJECT: Upper Valley Drainage & Dean' s Lake Outlet DATE: May 14 , 1986 INTRODUCTION: The Upper Valley Drainage Basin has been identified as a needed storm drainage improvement. The Shakopee Water Management Or- ganization (WMO) has been formed and will hopefully develop a management plan within the next year or less. With the extension of the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) into the drainage way of the Upper Valley and current development adjacent to the drainage way, it behooves the City to begin planning for these improvements now. BACKGROUND: Various issues need to be resolved in relation to the Upper Valley Drainage. These issues need to be addressed in a sy- stematic, chronological order as well as some issues being ad- dressed concurrently. The following are the issues and a method of resolving them. FLOW RATES The aforementioned WMO management plan will most certainly ad- dress, among other things, storm water flow rates. For a given watershed, the flow rate for a given storm event will vary de- pending upon type and degree of development and volume of storm- water detention. Since the WMO includes three jurisdictions (Prior Lake, Louis- ville Township and Jackson Township) in addition to the City of Shakopee, the City must be concerned about the flow rates developed in the plan since the drainage way, for the most part, is in the City. The flow rates developed in the plan will, in turn, govern storm drainage facility design and hence faci- litaties cost. Many jurisdictions in this country, as a rule of thumb, require that each property retain storm water such that the post develop- ment peak does not exceed the predevelopment peak. This many times result in many randoming placed, man-made detention faci- lities requiring high maintenance cost. On the other end of the spectrum, individual 1980 drainage stud- ies were completed by Suburban Engineering for Jackson Township and the City of Shakopee assuming full development of the basin and utilizing natural depressions for detention. Although the Drainage System May 14 , 1986 Page 2 two studies have inconsistent flow rates differing as high as 103 cubic feet per second, the proposed flow rates for design are very high in both studies. Jackson and Louisville Townships are, for the most part, in a predevelopment state. Based upon that fact, the City of Shakopee could pursue the following policy statements: 1. Each jurisdiction, by means of individual, scattered detention facilities or a major facility, maintain peak flow at a predevelopment rate. This would allow each jurisdiction to decide to utilize natural depressions and construct into detention facilities or require each developer to construct detention within their own site. 2 . Each jurisdiction maintain their facilities. 3 . Each jurisdiction submits to the WMO development plans within that jurisdiction for review. Based upon these policies, the City of Shakopee should be able to avoid added facility or maintenance cost as a result from development within the Townships. The WMO will hire a consultant to determine flow rates based upon WMO policy. It would behoove the City to have its civil consultant model the predevelopment flow rate such that the Shakopee Commissioner, Mayor Reinke, has a level of comfort when decisions relative to flow rates are made. DETENTION VOLUMES Upon determination of flow rates, the City can then study the important issue of detention volumes within the City. This issue really looks at the economic analysis; as detention increases, initial investment of storm sewer facilities decrease, but, as detention increases, lands that otherwise may be developable is used for detention. DRAINAGEWAY ALIGNMENT The drainage way alignment is, for all practical purposes, deter- mined by the natural drainage way. The width of the drainage way needs to be determined based upon flow rates. �.. *ft - Z h/ l Drainage System May 14 , 1986 Page 3 UPPER VALLEY OUTLET The Comprehensive Drainage Plan (attached) indicates that the outlet for the Upper Valley Drainage way is via the Mill Pond (the area designated as Mill Pond Basin is what is referred to as the Upper Valley in this memo) with the course colored yellow. The actual drainage course follows the route colored pink. Both courses need to be studied to determine the most cost effective route. The route colored pink will be discussed further under 101 Bypass Drainage. 101 BYPASS DRAINAGE AND COMBINED FACILITIES One major factor that should affect the most cost effective drainage courses is the 101 Bypass drainage plans. It appears that a substantial portion of the Bypass will drain to the east to a point where the pink line intersects the Bypass route. A joint cooperative project between the City and Mn/DOT could perhaps save both parties a substantial amount of capital invest- ment. Mn/DOT should be working on their drainage plan at this time, therefore, I do not see our schedule overly jeopardized by their schedule. DEAN LAKE OUTLET If it becomes apparent, due to the previous discussion, that the Upper Valley Drainage should flow easterly to Dean Lake, then the Dean Lake Outlet Basin Project should also be studied at this time. Major issues to be analyzed with this portion of the study are as follows: 1. Upstream detention of Upper Valley Drainage. 2 . Upstream detention of Dean Lake Basin. 3 . Determination of a Normal Ordinary High Water Level (NOHWL) of Dean Lake that is acceptable to lake resi- dents and the DNR. Neighborhood meetings should pre- ceed formal meetings with the DNR. 4 . Design of the outlet control structure based on the NOHWL. 5. Stabilization of the outlet channel by the Prior Lake/ Spring Lake Watershed District (colored blue in Comp Plan) . Drainage System May 14 , 1986 Page 4 RECOMMENDED ACTIONS : As can be imagined, the whole issue of the Upper Valley Drainage is quite complicated and controls essential land development. Therefore, I have developed what I see as a preliminary sequence of steps to complete the task of developing a storm drainage system. I . Council Authorize Consultant Cost (Spring, 1986) II.

Construction of Dean Lake Outlet if Warranted for Cost Effective Routing (Summer, 1987) This time frame certainly depends upon actions of other juris- dictions. One would expect schedule changes and additions and/or deletions to the task list. REQUESTED ACTION: 1. An indication to staff of the Councils interpretation of the task and desired time schedule to complete the task. If Council agrees with the recommended actions, then; 2 . Move to direct the City Engineer to obtain engineering cost estimates to complete the categorized tasks as indicated in his May 14, 1986 memo regarding Upper Valley Drainage and Dean Lake Outlet.

Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Ken Ashfeld, City Engineer .;A7� SUBJECT : Street Rehabilitation Funding Policy INTRODUCTION : In July, 1984 , Council adopted a street preservation and rehabili tation funding policy as attached. This memo will summarize the policies and provide various suggestions for implementing this policy in conjunction with the current Capital Improvements Program ( CIP) . BACKGROUND : The policy essentially provides the following: Defines preservation efforts as crack sealing , patching , gravelling, and sealcoating. Defines rehabilitation as reconstruction, addition of curb & gutter and overlays. Defines frontage assessments and zone assessments. Defines preservation funding as City-wide levy . Defines rehabilitation funding as ; 25% zone or frontage assessments. 75% City Cost as general obligation. Defines zones 1 through 5 . Defines credits. For the most part, the policy is straight forward and relatively easily implemented. As I interpret the policy , there are two points that I do not feel was the intent of the policy , those points being the singular definition of overlay and zone defi- nition. DEFINITION OF OVERLAY The policy states that all structural overlays will be considered rehabilitation and hence assessed. In all cases , a bituminous overlay is structural . In researching discussed memos regarding the policy, overlays were presented in two forms as normal maint- enance and rehabilitating such as in the Eaglewood Project . These two forms, or definitions were not carried through into the policy . Rehabilitation Policy May 12 , 1986 Page 2 A "normal " life cycle for a bituminous pavement should roughly follow the following schedule : Year 0 New Construction Year 3-5 Seal Coat Year 15-20 Thin Overlay Year 20-25 Seal Coat Year 40 Pavement retired , recycled , or maintained to provide base for new structural pavement. From the day that a bituminous pavement is placed in its environ- ment , it begins to age from traffic loadings and a process of oxidation whereby the bituminous loses its flexibility charac- teristics and begins to crack under loadings and gradually loses strength. Seal coats is a maintenance procedure for slowing the oxidation process. Thin overlays is a maintenance procedure for restoring lost strength through its "normal " life cycle . Thick overlays provide any of the following intentions : Staged construction to upgrade roadway strength to meet traffic demands. Increase strength due to inadequate original construc- tion . Correct major profile and cross section problems re- sulting from embankment failure . DEFINITION OF ZONES The entire urban City is divided into five districts making for very wide spread zone assessments . Coupled with the policy definition of overlays and zone designations, a typical lot in District 3 , for example, could receive the following assessments assuring a direct assessment one year and one zone street assessment per year on subsequent years . ( See Attachment B) : 1986 Direct assessment for new construction 1987-1993 Zone assessment each year 2001 Direct assessment for thin overlay 2002-2008 Zone Assessment for thin overlay each year r 14-1 WWMW 12, Rehabilitation Policy May 12 , 1986 Page 3 In a 20 year life cycle , a typical lot could receive 17 indi- vidual assessments. This can be quite cumbersome administra- tively and may be objectionable to the assessed property owners . The following alternatives are available for the implementation of the policy : OVERLAYMENTS 1 . Modify the policy to state that thin , single lift overlays are considered preservation efforts and that thick, multi- lift overlays providing structural strength beyond that of the original pavement be considered rehabilitation . 2 . Modify the policy to state that all overlays be considered preservation. 3 . Do not modify the policy . ZONES 1 . Modify the policy to create smaller zones such that indi- vidual zone assessments would increase but the number of zone assessments would decrease . 2 . Attempt to create larger projects within a zone such that the number of assessments would be less . This is a do nothing alternative . 3 . Modify the policy to define a zone as those properties lying within one block adjacent to a zone street improvement whereby each lot would receive one direct assessment for an abutting street and a maximum of two zone assessments for the two side streets adjacent to that block. RECOMMENDATIONS : OVERLAYS One intention for defining overlays in general as rehabilitation assessments was due to the fact that the preservation budget was not keeping up with overlayment demand and could not be substantially increased due to tax levy limits . I recommend overlayment implementation Alternative 1 for the following rea- sons : The existing policy interjects the need for convincing property owners that normal life cycle overlayments protect their investment better than other increased maintenance } Rehabilitation Policy May 12 , 1986 Page 4 efforts , not only in the future but now in 1986 for proposed overlays . Property owners could argue that the City does not provide adequate normal maintenance , hence requiring overlays, irregardless of the efforts of the City . Since the policy calls for a 25% project cost assessment and 20% is the statuatory minimum, the difference can be used to bolster the preservation fund without violating levy limits. Based upon cost estimates, levy amounts could be increased legally to overlay approximately one block for each block of rehabilitation . Combined with the preser- vation budget, I believe an acceptable program can be imple- See. mented while at the same time , decreasing the number of AJ+ackK,en- assessment projects for overlays . � C ZONES The existing delineations of zones is quite specific although creating wide spread assessments and if a zone project is under- taken alone, a proof of benefit problem may arise . Although I do not present a strong recommendation , I believe that a zone assessment only for the side streets adjacent to a parcel of property would be fair. The resulting total amount to be as- sessed would be the same as in the current policy . REQUESTED ACTION : Direct the City Engineer to draft a resolution modifying the Pavement Preservation and Rehabilitation Funding Policy as per recommendations presented in his May 12, 1986 memo and bring same back to Council for consideration. KA/pmp POLICY I RESOLUTION NO. 2278 A RESOLUTION ESTABLISING THE POLICY FOR rUNDING THE REHABILITATION OF STREETS IN THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE WHEREAS, advisory boards and commissions have reviewed the Pavement Preservation and Rehabilitation Policy; and WHEREAS, City Council has previously reviewed the Preserva- tion and Rehabilitation Policy for City streets. i NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE, that: 1.

Anderson, City Administrator �. RE: Additional Staffing as "Temporary Employees" J� DATE: April 28 , 1986 Introduction The Shakopee City Council, at its adjourned April 16 , 1986 meeting, reviewed my recommendations regarding additional staffing, reorgan- ization of the Community Development Department and City Hall office relocations. Resulting Council Consensus 1. Staffing and Community Development Department Reorganization Recommendations: Building Inspector - Council agreed to a full time temporary position which would be eligible for all City benefits. This is a slight upgrade from the position' s present status as a contractual employee. Receptionist/Typist - Council agreed to the receptionist/typist position upon receipt of a detailed job description and an organizational commitment to continue the position as a receptionist/typist rather than adding additional jobs to the position and upgrading it in a defacto manner over time. Police Officer - Council had already authorized the hiring of an additional full-time police officer. Council ' s discussion focused primarily on the potential of using part-time licensed officers. Council discussed drawing upon retired officers or officers who are licensed and trying to obtain experience while waiting to land their first full-time police position. Council discussed at length the possibility of having Canterbury Downs contract with licensed officers who are part-time rather than burn--' ng out our regular officers with additional overtime hours. Council would like additional information regarding how a group of part-time officers might be available for Canterbury Downs and/or City needs and what type of equipment/transportation requirements would be involved. Planner I - Council tentatively agreed to this additional position in Community Development as a full-time temporary similar to the Building Inspector ' s position. Council will authorize the hiring of this position based upon our ability to find a Community Development Director with the mix of job skills we are seeking. This means that the job functions of the current City Planner and Administrative Aide will be readjusted as recommended in my memo to Council upon the hiring of a new Director and he/she having the opportunity to review with the personnel involved the proposed organizational setup. Engineering Inspectors - Council is in favor of continuing with the use of part-time inspectors as initiated this year. Public works - Council agreed that there was a need to find temporary employees that would be available for more than the two to three months of the summer season. 2 . City Hall Office Relocations : Council concurred with the City Hall office relocation scheme as proposed by City Hall department heads . The Council requested that the Mayor ' s office be located in Gregg' s present office and that the office be shared with Jeanette who will provide secretarial services for the Mayor, Clerk and City Administrator. Council also asked that we hold off on the additional meeting room at the rear of the Council Chambers. Council would like to see how the new office configuration and meeting room set up works and avoid creating the room in the rear of the Council Chambers unless it is absolutely necessary. Use of "Temporary Employee" Position Titles The present City personnel resolution establishes several employment classifications under Section 3 entitled Definitions ( attached) . These positions are treated differently for payroll purposes both within our payroll department and through our time shared program with Logis . Null-time employees receive all benefits, part-time employees receive all benefits on a pro-rated basis , temporary employees receive no benefits and contractual employees receive only those benefits agreed to by contract. Logis and our Personnel Department would not be able to use the classification ( temporary employee) and give the employee the full range of benefits because the programs are set up to treat permanent employees and temporary employees differently. Therefore, the Personnel Department cannot simply place the temporary employee title on the position of Building Inspector and Planner I as tentatively suggested by Council at its April 16th meeting. Alternatives After reviewing City Council ' s suggestion regarding the use "temporary employees" classification with the Finance Department we have come up with the following list of alternatives : 1 . Make the two positions of Building Inspector and Planner I permanent employee positions , but include a statement under the "remarks" section of the employee payroll authori- zation form attached. The remarks could be a simple straight forward sentence stating that this permanent position has been filled based upon building and community development department work loads and if there is insufficient work the employee will be given 60 days notice of termination of the position. This procedure will place both parties on notice that the position is based upon work load and the notice will be in writing. This procedure is the most straight forward way to handle the position. There is clear authority for lay offs in Section 19 of our current personnel resolution. It states, "After at least two weeks notice to the employee, the City Council may lay off any employee whenever such action is necessary because of shortage of work or funds, the abolition of the position, or changes in organization. No permanent or probationary employee a shall be laid off while there is a temporary employee serving in the same class of position for which the permanent or probationary employee is qualified, eligible, and available. " not 2. Make the building inspector position a contractual position as provided for in Section 3 Definitions. This is how we have treated the position the past two years. The same type of approach can be used for the Planner I position. The primary reason for using the "contracted employee" classification is to have both parties acknowledge that the position is unique and is viewed as a position that will end at a specified date in the future. The City of Minneapolis uses contractual employees and generally does not provide them normal City benefits . They also have "permit employees" which are contractual employees who receive City benefits . These positions are similar to the contractual employees we currently have as Building Inspector (Fulton) and Administrative Aide (Barry) . The City of Minneapolis also has a classification called "detail employee" which is an employee moved into a new classification and receiving a salary and benefits accordingly. The detail employee definition stays in force until the position is formally classified by their Civil Service Board. 3 . Use the "temporary employee" classification in our personnel resolution but run the individual through the payroll as a permanent employee. This would require an annual review and renew of the position thus underscoring the temporary nature of the position. It would also create problems with Finance which would have to deal with the position outside of normal payroll processing procedures. Recommendation Staff recommends alternative No. 1 with a statement on the employee payroll authorization form noting that the particular position is based on work load and can be laid off as per Section 19 in our personnel resolution. Action Requested Authorize the appropriate City officials to draft a permanent employee job description for a Building Official and Planner I position, each including a note on the employee payroll authori- zation regarding termination of the position based upon work load in accordance with Section 19 of the personnel resolution. The Building Official position is to be filled by Fulton Schleisman and we also note that the position is shared with Scott County. The Planner I position is vacant and the new Community Development Director will have an opportunity to review it before the position is filled. JKA/jms IVJ SECTION 3.

Anderson, City Administrator RE: Relocating of City Offices DATE: April 24, 1986 Introduction At the April 16 , 1986 meeting, City Council tentatively agreed to move ahead with the relocation of City offices. Council directed staff to obtain estimates of the cost of the relocation. Floor Plan and Cost Estimates The Finance Department personnel who will be moving upstairs for a minimum of two years sat down and developed the attached floor plan. They reviewed the floor plan with LeRoy Houser who then obtained the estimate for making the changes. Also attached is a memorandum from Marilyn Remer, Senior Accounting Clerk/Personnel. Her thoughts are a result of spending a few hours upstairs while Finance employees where trying to figure out how best to set up shop on the second floor. Council considered and then dismissed the alternative of moving the City Council meeting location when the recommendations first came to Council. Marilyn would like Council to discuss that alternative one more time. Alternatives 1. Authorize the Building Inspector to take proposals on the remodeling work as outlined in his memo of April 24 , 1986 . If Finance is to be moved upstairs this would provide them with a suitable working environment with the exception of the traffic noise. Council will want to discuss whether or not it can recoup the full $16 , 453 upon sale of the building. 2. Authorize the appropriate City officials to obtain proposals ► for remodeling the second floor, but on a reduced budget. I would urge Councilmembers to stop in and walk through the second floor during the day so that they have a good understanding of what it looks like right now. Based upon a first hand review of the second floor Councilmembers may be able to arrive at a consensus on a reduced package if that is the direction the majority would like to go. 3 . Reverse your earlier decision and direct staff to find a new location for Council meetings and move Finance or some other office into the Council Chambers area. This alternative would work best for City Hall staff and citizens coming to City Hall. Council should discuss the advantages of having the Council Chambers adjacent to other City offices as compared to having Finance on the second floor of the existing building. Recommendation I am comfortable with all three recommendations. My first choice is alternative No. 3 , my second choice is alternative No. 1 and my third choice is alternative No. 2 . Even if Council picks alternative No. 2 the overall benefit to the majority of employees in City Hall and the citizens they serve will far exceed to status quo. Action Requested Authorize the appropriate City officials to seek proposals on the remodeling of the Council Chambers (or second floor of City Hall) at a cost not to exceed $ JKA/jms '% . �. MEMO TO: City Council FROM: LeRoy Houser, Building Official RE: Upstair Remodel (Finance) DATE: April 24 , 1986 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND: I have compiled the cost estimates, as per instructions, based on the plan provided me by the Administrator ( attached) . The plan indicates three offices, conference room and reception/ equipment area. I have based my cost on full high office walls which are necessary and conducive to productivity. Staff people need a quiet, private place to work in order to maintain their train of thought and to keep distractions at a minimum. They " also need on occasion a private conference with a taxpayer citizen to solve problems, eliminating the three ring circus or zoo atmosphere with open areas. Also it injects a little professionalism into staffs daily work routine and instills pride in oneself and work. I highly recommend we complete the project as layed out. The cost incurred will be just about totally recoverable when we sell the building ( if we ever do) . The upstairs is not retail sales area and by no stretch of the imagination would a prospective purchaser consider it to be when making his purchase price offer decision. He would however consider it office area and take into account the improvement as in harmony with the principle of highest and best use. Listed below are what I believe to be reasonable cost estimates : 1 . Drop ceiling $ 1 , 803 2 . Carpet 1 ,500 3 . Walls/tape/paint 2 , 850 — 'S'oc 4. Drapes ( solar) 1 , 500 8� S .

Anderson, City Administrator I Mayor and City Council Members From: Marilyn M. Remer, Sr. Acct 'g. Clerk/Personnel �j4' r Re: City Hall Relocation Options Date: April 24, 1986 Background Information Staff and Council have recommended relocating the Finance Dept. upstairs in the area formerly occupied by Job Service. I feel there are some factors that probably were not addressed and are becoming more apparent as we are preparing info needed to make that move. It has become obvious that there is going to be a definite noise factor from the truck traffic directly below the windows. Due to the nature of detail work and the degree of concentration required with most financial work, that noise factor is not going to be very conducive to productivity. I have been told City Council meetings were held in that room in the past and that the Council proceedings would occassionally have to be interrupted due to extremely loud truck noise. Conditions are poor including an inadequate heating/cooling system and poor overhead lighting which would need some correction due to the need for proper work stations for computer terminals. LeRoy Houser has received estimates for the improvements needed to upgrade the area into habitable office space. I would like to request the Council consider the feasibility of holding Council and Commission meeting elsewhere (Scott County facilities or Ind. Dist. 720 School facilities) and use the existing Council chambers to house the Finance Dept. Our department' s use of the copier, postage meter, info needed for assessment searches is located in files in the front reception area, and increased Personnel activities with the public would be some of the areas benefitted by keeping this department on the first floor. The City of Burnsville had the same staffing problems and recently hired two new personnel and just did not have any more room to put in two more desks. The Burnsville City Council currently meets in a meeting room located in the Burnsville High School with the previous Council Chambers being remodeled to accomodate more office space. They are also working towards a referendum for a new City Hall in the a,2. e se are aapeful this i-s a short—term solution. They found that many of the schools had rooms that were available and were not being utilized as they should be. I have discussed this option with LeRoy Houser and he fully agrees that this would be the most feasible of the options, that remodeling the Council Chambers would be half the cost, and he would have several suggestions for alternate meeting sites. With Council/Commission having to hold their meetings elsewhere, hopefully the public would become more aware of overcrowding/conditions of City Hall and more susceptible to passage of a City Hall referendum. /mmr cc: LeRoy Houser Gregg tioxland '%� .� MEMO TO: City Council FROM: LeRoy Houser, Building Official RE: Addendum to City Hall Remodel DATE: April 29 , 1986 I anticipate an additional cost of $1 , 500 . 00 for work on the first floor of City Hall that will have to be completed to complete our musical chairs program. If Council decides on Alternate No. 3 , our cost would be approximately $6, 000 . 00 . This would include cutting one window in the north end of the Council Chambers . LH:cah MEMO TO: Mayor and City Council /9W FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator 1 L RE: Policy and Program Issues Involving Shakopee ' s 1 Use of Tax Increment Financing DATE: May 5 , 1986 Introduction In April City Council discussed several broad policy issues regarding the use of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) by the City of Shakopee. The memorandum guiding that discussion included six key policy questions. After considerable Council discussion it was decided that no new criteria or parameters would be added to the existing policies, but that additional information would be requested on the application forms so that Council would have the facts before them when deciding on individual tax increment projects . The attachments that follow provide a draft of our application forms introducing the new information required. In addition, I have included an earlier memorandum from Jeanne Andre with a copy of Council action from July 2 , 1985 regarding changes to Resolution No. 2391 establishing TIF policies for housing projects. Application Form Additions The application form additions are underlined on the attached forms and deletions are shown by dashes . By taking a number of items City Council discussed and listing them on the application form staff and Council are less likely to overlook them when processing individual applications . This provides both Council and staff with a better checklist and puts the applicant on notice that these questions will be discussed by City Council. By listing the information addressing broad policy issues in the application form, Council can still exercise maximum flexability in approving projects because the information requested does not represent a set of rigid guidelines . Tax Increment Financing for Housing Projects i have attached the Council minutes from the July 2 , 1985 meeting first and followed the minutes with Jeanne Andre ' s original June 25th memo and then the amending resolution with the new application form. Again changes on the form have been underlined for additions and stricken with a dash if deleted. The key concern of City Council was to include the phrase "extra- ordinary utility construction costs" rather than general language regarding hardship. Item No. 11 on the first page of the application form has been revised since Jeanne ' s original memo to better define "extraordinary utility construction costs" . Alternatives 1 . Approve the proposed amendments to the present TIF application form for redevelopment projects established by Resolution No. 1841 as amended by Resolution No. 2551. The purpose of the amendments is to incorporate Council ' s discussion of TIF policy issues in April in the application form without limiting City Council ' s discretion in making a final decision on particular TIF projects. 2 . Approve the proposed amendments to the present TIF applciation form for economic development projects established by Resolution No. 1842 as amended by Resolution No. 2552. The purpose of the amendments is to incorporate Council ' s discussion of TIF policy issues in April in the application form without limiting City Council ' s discretion in making a final decision on particular TIF projects. 3 . Approve Resolution No. 2391 incorporating City Council ' s July 2 , 1985 comments regarding "extraordinary utility construction costs" and Council ' s April discussions regarding overall broad policy issues in the City' s TIF application form for housing projects. 4. Pass the three resolutions amending the TIF application forms after changes that have resulted from Council ' s discus- sion. 5. Make no changes in the TIF application policies and forms as they now exist. This alternative would preserve the status quo, but would lose the intent of Council consensus on July 2 , 1985 and the benefit of Council ' s discussions in April regarding overall policy issues as they relate to TIF. Recommendation I recommend Alternative No. 1 through 3 above for the reasons listed. Action Requested 1 . Approve Resolution No. 2551 amending Resolution No. 1841 setting forth the application procedures and requirements for TIF redevelopment projects . (Only changed pages attached. ) 2. Approve Resolution No. 2552 amending Resolution No. 1842 setting forth the application procedures and requirements for TIF economic development projects. (Only changed pages attached. ) 3 .

Anderson , City Administrator FROM: Jeanne Andre , Community Development Director RE: Council Policy Statement on Use of Tax Increment for Financing of Housing Projects DATE : June 25 , 1985 Introduction• The issue of use of tax-increment financing in areas with bedrock or other similar development problems has been discussed at a number of goals and objectives sessions held by City Council. It was the consensus of the City Council during those sessions to offer this type of assistance to encourage development in areas which would not otherwise develop under normal market conditions . Existing Council policies on tax-increment financing provide that tax-increment cannot be used for multifamily housing on vacant land . Therefore in areas where bedrock exists that are also in R-4 (multifamily residential) zoning, the Councils ' goals and objectives statements are in conflict with existing policies. This memo is to initiate discussion on whether to correct this conflict and the best way to do so. Background• Numerous inquires have been received by the staff as to assistance available for the development of multifamily housing in Shakopee . A number of these inquiries have been for land in the vicinity of CR 17 and CR 16 and Fourth Avenue. Therefore in order to respond to these questions, ( in regard to tax-increment financing ) the above-mentioned conflict must be resolved by the City Council . The area of mortgage revenue bonds for multifamily housing will be. brought to City Council as a separate issue . Recommended Action: Assuming the City Council wishes to revise its tax-increment financing (TIF) policy for housing to provide for use of this tool when there are physical limitations to the site such as bedrock at or near to the surface , I recommend the additions and deletions as noted on the attached policy statement be adopted. These changes provide for use of TIF for multifamily housing, but only when development hardships exist . Alternately, if the Council wishes to keep the housing TIF policy as is , the goals and objectives should be modified to remove references to use of TIF for housing , even in areas with physical limitations . Page two Memo - Tax Increment Financing Requested Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2391 which recinds Resolution No. 2191 , which adopted the previous policy for use of tax-increment financing for housing , and adopts a new policy which allows for use of tax-increment financing when physical hardships to development exist. tw RESOLUTION NC. 2391 I RESOLUTION APPROVINQ AND ADORTiNf A CEF7Aif1T TAX TC y0r,L i�,^ pRC Tc^"'S WHEREAS , the City of Shakopee in Resolution No. 21917 A Resolution Approving and Adopting Certain Tax-Increment Policies Related to the Use of Tax increment Financing for interest Rate Reduction Programs for Low and Moderate Income Families, established certain policies on the use of tax-increment financing ; and WHEREAS , the Shakopee City Council now desires to change those policies to provide for the use of tax-increment financing vacant housing on vacanland that is subject to severe development hardships , NOW , THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE, Scott County, Minnesota, that: 1.

COUNCIL POLICY STATEMENT CITY OF SHAKOPEE TAX INCREMENT FINANCING FOR HOUSING Subject _. ine�e�.•- 1 T .] /..( .l _�.. Tom. TT... sing T]r ej ets Review V��IC 1V 13.E 111 �^ There are three types of Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Districts: Redevelopment, Lew r M a a Ta..d.._t n_____ins and Economic Develop- ment. I-rre� _--}_ _-_Shakopee has elected to restrict TIF availability for any type of low and moderate income income or conventional housing unless it meets Redevelopment Project Criteria outlined in a separate Policy Statement or is proposed to be constructed on vacant parcels where unusual development hardships can be demonstrated. (i.e. TIF available will be provided for vacant parcels only where unusual development hardships are demonstrated. ) (+_ __ TIF _ __ , _L_, :t✓ __ restrieted fee en b„r�. TIF is available for Economic Development Projects and Redevelopment Projects under separate, but similar, Policy Statements. Minnesota statutes place the responsibility for low and moderate income interest reduction programs with housing and redevelopment authorities. Under Minnesota statutes, however, the interest reduction program 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 involvement 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 restrictions with respect to the processing of requests for, and the creation and implementation of, tax increment financing districts for low and moderate income housing. STATEMENT OF POLICY Applicability It is the policy of the City of Shakopee to provide interest rate reduction programs to assist the financing of the construction, rehabilitation, and purchasing of housing units which are primarily for occupancy by individuals of low or moderate income and related or subordinate facilities (MSA 462.445, Subd. 10) in order to protect and increase property values and the tax base of the City. For those purposes, it may be necessary to create tax increment low ' and moderate income housing districts in selected portions of the City and to fund interest rate reduction programs for private developments within such districts. It is also the policy of the City of Shakopee to limit (restrict) the use of TIF interest rate reduction programs to programs that 1) provide home ownership on a scattered site basis with the TIF interest rate reduction provided to the homeowner rather than the builder/developer for quality homes compatible with the neighborhood, or 2) provide for the construction of multifamily housing on parcels where development hardships exist. Creation of tax increment low and moderate income housing districts may come as the result of City initiative, 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 low and moderate income interest reduction programs with tax increments 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 interest rate reduction programs 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 greatest extent feasible the processing of all requests for the approval 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 consideration 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 porposal makes in creating needed housing units in accordance with the City's adopted Housing Assistance Program; (3) The level of other public and private investment involved in the project; (4) The overall risk or exposure to loss of City funds included in the project; aftd- (5) The degree to which competition in neighboring communities dictates use of such programs to create competitive housing markets in Shakopee; and (6) the degree to which the City will have access to fifth percent (50%) of the captured increment for related City projects. 2. Character of Program: A viable program should typically include participation by both the applicant(s) and the City in reducing interest rates for low and moderate income individuals. Examples of such participation include: (1) A firm commitment by the applicant(s) to build a specified number of the program's housing units or an equivalent commitment; (2) A firm commitment by the applicant(s) to contribute a stated level of interest rate reduction from non-increment sources; (3) Participation by several experienced developer/builders to insure that the program's success or failure does not depend upon on only one or two developer/builders; and (4) The demonstrated quality of the units proposed and their capability with housing units in the neighborhood. 3. Demonstration of Need: A request for tax increment financing shall demonstrate that feasible alternative financing is not available and that the ass-.stance applied for is needed in the amount requested. The developers; 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 infor- mation 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. 0-1- 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 demon- strable 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 redevelopment 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(s) to successfully complete the development, and (3) The certainty that the tax increments will be received. Tax Increment Revenue Bonds or General Obligation Bonds will not be used to fund low and moderate income interest reduction programs. Increments will be utilized directly to write down interest rates to insure maximum protection for the City. Applicants for tax increment financing for interest reduction programs will be required to sign an acceptable written agreement setting forth the responsibilities of the applicant and the City with respect to the program. 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 concurrently to the City Administrator's office and to the Executive Director of the Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority by the person or firm requesting the City and HRA to utilize the City's tax increment financing 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 chaired by the City Administrator and consisting of the Planner, City Engineer, Public Works Director, Utilities Director, County Assessor, Finance Director, and HRA Executive Director 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 applicant(s) may make a presentation, and staff will make preliminary comments concerning the perceived feasibility of the project. The preliminary proposal will include an application form completed by the developer, a preliminary staff analysis listing the City's new captured assessed value as a percentage of total value, potential uses for related Citv projects and a review of the application data provided by the developer. 5. Based on the preliminary review, the applicant(s) may elect to file a formal application with the City, accompanied by a fee of $500.00. (?- 6. 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 applicant(s) shall attend at least one (1) meeting with residents 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 negotiation of a low or moderate income interest reduction program. 9. Negotiation of the interest reduction program contract prepared by the HRA occurs. All City negotiating teams will include one or more HRA commis- sioners and legal staff. 10. During the negotiation of the contract, a tax increment financing 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 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 contract 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: Mayor and City Council FROM: John K. Anderson, City Administrator RE: Hiring a Community Development Director DATE: June 9 , 1986 Introduction City Council, at its regular April 1 , 1986 meeting authorized city staff to recruit, screen and recommend for hiring a person to fill the position of Community Development Director. Recruitment and Screening The city advertised in the local newspaper, the Minneapolis Star and the St. Paul Pioneer Press. In addition, copies of the "help wanted" ad and a job description were mailed to all housing and redevelopment . agencies (HRAs ) in the State. The city received 30 applications which were screened by a screening committee of three persons. Serving on the committee were Ron Rankin, the Community Development Director of Minnetonka, Dick Krier, currently a development specialist with Derick Land Co. and formerly with Westwood Planning and Engineering and the City of Richfield, and me. The thirty applications were reviewed and nine were selected for reference checks . After the reference checks were completed five were scheduled for interviews and testing by Personnel Decisions, Inc. After reviewing the interview results and the results from Personnel Decisions, Inc. the screening committee is recommending that Council offer the position to Dennis Kraft who was the Director of the Department of Planning and Program Development in Iowa City from 1971 to 1980 and has served as the Director of the Department of Community Development in Richfield since 1980. Dennis has excellent credentials and has been successful in guiding major redevelopment projects to completion in Richfield (resume attached) . Financially Dennis is making a lateral move to the position in Shakopee and we are recommending that he be placed at the top salary position on the 1986 Department Head/Staff Pay Plan, Step 10 at $37, 808 per year. The justification for recommending the Step 10 salary is Dennis ' 15 years of experience as a department head for the Community Development Departments in two cities. Alternatives 1 . Approve the employment of Dennis Kraft as Community Development Director effective July 14 , 1986 at a salary of $37 , 808 per year, Step 10 in the Pay Plan. 2 . Direct the City Administrator to negotiate some other salary, benefit or employment status with Dennis Kraft. I had talked to the two top candidates about the possibility of "contract employee" status . This alternative would bring to four the total number of employees working under employment agreements for the City of Shakopee. It would be the first department head in Shakopee working under an employment agreement which is a practice that has been used by a small number of cities in the United States for the last five to ten years . There are significant advantages to the City in using the employment agreement approach which clearly outlines the terms of employment and establishes a specific time at which the agreement must be renewed. The possible negative aspects of using an agreement would be limited to those items in the agreement that allow the individual to be treated different than other department heads. The key question is whether of not the advantages to the City of an employment agreement are sufficient to justify any employment conditions that might be different from those that are offered to other department heads. 3 . Reject the list of finalists and reconsider how the City will fill the Community Development Director ' s position. Recommendation The screening committee and I recommend alternative No. 1 . The City will be obtaining the type of experienced Community Development Director it has been seeking and one with an established network of developer contact in the Metro area. Action Requested Approve the employment of Dennis Kraft as Community Development Director effective July 14, 1986 at a salary of $37, 808 per year, Step 10 in the Pay Plan.

Anderson, City Administrator RE: Hiring a Community Development Director DATE: June 9 , 1986 Introduction City Council, at its regular April 1 , 1986 meeting authorized city staff to recruit, screen and recommend for hiring a person to fill the position of Community Development Director. Recruitment and Screening The city advertised in the local newspaper, the Minneapolis Star and the St. Paul Pioneer Press. In addition, copies of the "help wanted" ad and a job description were mailed to all housing and redevelopment agencies (HRAs ) in the State. The city received 30 applications which were screened by a screening committee of three persons. Serving on the committee were Ron Rankin, the Community Development Director of Minnetonka, Dick Krier, currently a development specialist with Derick Land Co. and formerly with Westwood Planning and Engineering and the City of Richfield, and me. The thirty applications were reviewed and nine were selected for reference checks. After the reference checks were completed five were scheduled for interviews and testing by Personnel Decisions, Inc. After reviewing the interview results and the results from Personnel Decisions , Inc. the screening committee is recommending that Council offer the position to Thomas C. McElveen who was a Community Development Specialist for Scott County from 1978 to 1981 and has served as the Executive Director of the Waconia Housing and Redevelopment Authority since 1981. Tom has excellent creden- tials and has been successful in securing and implementing numerous Federal, State and foundation grant programs ( resume attached) . Financially Tom is making a lateral move to the position in Shakopee and we are recommending that he be placed at the top salary position on the 1986 Department Head/Staff Pay Plan, Step 10 with an adjustment of +3% similar to adjustments received by three other department heads. The justification for the +3% adjustment of the Step 10 salary is the three year employment agreement which includes conditions of employment regular full time employees are not subject to. Tom has also been able to utilize a unique program available only to city managers/administrators in the State of Minnesota, because he has been carried as the HRA Director in Waconia and not a City employee. He has asked that the City make this option available to him. To accomplish this I am suggesting that Tom be employed as a "contractual" employee under our personnel rules and regulations similar to our present Administrative Aide and part-time Building Inspector. This employment designation allows Tom to take his PERA contribution and the City' s PERA contribution and place them in a deferred comp program rather than participating in PERA. There are two other unique elements being proposed in the employment agreement attached. The first is an agreement by the City to give Tom three months or 90 days notice of termination in exchange for his commitment not to seek a job, and the second is an acceler- ation of his vacation benefits commencing at the end of his six month probationary period. Alternatives 1 . Approve the employment agreement between the City of Shakopee and Thomas C. McElveen as drafted. This alternative would bring to four the total number of employees working under employment agreements for the City of Shakopee. It would be the first department head in Shakopee working under an employment agreement which is a practice that has been used by a small number of cities in the United States for the last five to ten years. There are significant advantages to the City in using the employment agreement approach which clearly outlines the terms of employment and establishes a specific time at which the agreement must be renewed. The possible negative aspects of using an agreement would be limited to those items in the agreement that allow the individual to be treated different than other department heads. The key question is whether or not the advantages to the City of an employment agreement are sufficient to justify any employment conditions that might be different from those that are offered to other department heads. In this case I believe we have struck a reasonable balance. 2 . Approve the proposed employment agreement between the City of Shakopee and Thomas C. McElveen with minor amendments that Council feels would be necessary to improvement the "balance" discussed in No. 1 above. 3 . Reject the idea of an employment agreement and offer the Position to Thomac C. McElveen at the proposed salary as a regular full time City employee with department head status. Based on my discussion with Tom I question whether he would accept the position under these circumstances. 4. Open negotiations with the selection committee ' s second choice, Dennis Kraft the Community Development Director in the City of Richfield. Recommendation The screening committee and I recommend alternative No. 1 for the reasons listed. The City of Shakopee has been seeking an aggressive, salesman type personality for this position and Tom fits the bill better than the other four finalists . Tom is familiar with Shakopee and Scott County and already knows many of the officials he would be dealing with on a daily basis . He currently lives in Bloomington and does not plan to move. Four of the five finalists would not plan to move to Shakopee. Action Regested Recommend that the appropriate HRA officials to enter into an employment agreement between the Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority and Thomas C. McElveen at their June 17 , 1986 meeting to fill the position of Community Development Director effective July 14 , 1986 through July 14 , 1989 .

Cox, City Clerk-- RE: By-Laws of the Shakopee Fire Department Relief Association DATE: June 5 , 1986 Introduction Mr. Mike Ryan recently brought to my attention an error in the current By-Laws of the Relief Association. Background It seems that when the formula for figuring pension benefit was added in February of 1985 (Res. No. 2371 ) there was an error made in Article VIII , Section 6 which was incorrectly brought forward from Resolution 1870 adopted July 21 , 1981. The attached resolu- tion simply corrects the errors made to coincide with the July 21 , 1981 adopted By-Laws , and adopts the formula adopted by Resolution No. 2371 and rescinds Resolution No. 2371 . Alternatives a. Correct error. b. Don' t correct error. Recommended Action Offer Resolution No. 2574 , A Resolution Amending Resolution No. 1870 , Approving the By-Laws of the Shakopee Fire Department Relief Association, and move its adoption. JSC/jms RESOLUTION NO. 2575 A RESOLUTION AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 1870 , APPROVING THE BY-LAWS OF THE SHAKOPEE FIRE DEPARTMENT RELIEF ASSOCIATION WHEREAS , on February 19 , 1985 the Shakopee City Council adopted Resolution No. 2371 the By-Laws of the Shakopee Fire Department by substituting a new Article VII on disability benefits and a new Article VIII on death benefits and pensions ; and WHEREAS, an error was made in Article VIII , Death Benefits and Pensions , Section 6 , in the number of years service for benefits . NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA, that Resolution No. 1870 , Approving the By-Laws of the Shakopee Fire Department Relief Association, dated June 16 , 1981 are hereby amended by substituting Articles VII and VIII therein with the attached Article VII on disability benefits and Article VIII on death benefits and pensions .

Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Ken Ashfeld, City Engineer,,,1-,X SUBJECT: Storm Sewer Utility Billing DATE: June 6, 1986 As you know, the 1st quarter storm sewer utility bills were recently mailed to the citizens and property owners within Shako- pee. This was the initial billing of a new program and for the most part went very well. As expected there are a fair amount of delinquent payments but payments are continuing to come in. One major problem did occur within the computerized data base. Essentially, the computer incorrectly read the area of a l 1 par- cels that were billed with an acreage of 10 acres or more and reduced it to an area less than 10 acres by displacement of a decimal paint. Ninety two out of approximately 3, 700 parcels billed were affected, obviously those of the larger commercial or industrial developed properties. This under billing of these properties resulted in an under charge of approximately $40, 000. 00. The individual affect on properties range from approximately $100. 00 to $6, 000. 00 in the extreme case. The City' s contract billing company, L06IS, is in the process of repairing their faulty program at this time. Since the storm sewer utility charge is based upon an established time frame to amortize the cost of storm sewer improvements, and to keep that time frame on track, I plan to send to each of the 9E prop- erty owners the attached letter indicating the additional amount due. Since this letter will go out quite close to the second quarter billings, I plan to send out the letters as soon as possible and to give additional time for the payment of addi- tional charges due. KA/pmp INFO CITE' OF SHAKOPEE INCORPORATED 187014 129 EAST FIRST AVENUE, SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA 55379-1376 (612) 445-3650 June 6, 1986 p r 1 Parcel No. Dear Property Owner: RE: Storm Drainage Utility Charges As you know, the City of Shakopee has recently implemented a storm drainage utility for the financing and maintenance of storm sewer systems within the City. The storm sewer utility charge is based upon land use intensity and acreage of all parcels of property within the City. In April, you received a storm sewer utility billing for the first quarter of 1986. If you were one of the many larger businesses previously quoted an estimate of your bill by the Engineering Department, you were probably surprised by the low amount of the bill you received. We discovered an error in your bill and other larger bills this week. Essen- tially, the computerized data system adjusted all properties of 10 acres or more to acreages less than 10 acres by a displacement of the decimal point. Therefore, the amount of the utility bill was incorrectly calculated. Your correct storm sewer utility amount is $ Your were incorrectly charged $ Additional Balance Due for 1st Gtr. , 1986 $ Your next quarter bill will reflect the correct amount as calculated from the correct acreage of your property. Since the utility charges will continue for a specific time period to amortize the cost of storm sewer improvements, and to keep that time frame on track, we ask that you submit the additional balance due for the 1st ouarter of 1986. Realizing the untimeliness of this additional charge being quite close to the second quarter billing, we ask that this additional balance due be submitted sometime during the remaining 1986 calendar year. You have received a duplicate copy of this letter. You may keep the original for your file and please return the copy with your payment. Thank you for your cooperation and patience with this matter. If you have any questions you may contact me or Steve Hurley at 445-3650. F­LEASE CONS I DE R 7 I S AN I NV O I CE Sincerely, Ken Ashfeld City Engineer The Heart of ProcreSS Valley CITY OF SHAKOPEE {�.�: �► -1 I29 East First Avenue, Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 MEMO TO: John Anderson - Administrator FROM, Jim Karkanen - Public Works SUBJECT: Flag installation on 1st Av. DATE: June 10th, 1986 INTRODUCTION: The Public Works Dept . has been installing the American flags in the street pole brackets for flag bearing commemmorative occasions for the American Legion. This directive came from the City Council last year. Several weeks ago, the Chamber of Commerce had banners installed by SPUC on these same light poles , but are installed at the same elevation as the flag brackets , and Christmas decorations . BACKGROUND: Saturday, June 14th, is Flag Day, and the American flags will have to be installed for this occasion. But , it is our understanding, that the Am. flag must be installed in the higher elevation over any other flags or banners . As an alternative, we have experimented with the flag brackets, by turning these brackets toward the sidewalks , but after consulting with Don Hamilton, the American Legion representive, he doesn ' t want this alteration to occur, and insists that the American flag be installed over the C.of.C. banners . ALTERNATIVES : 1 . If the C. of C. banners have to be removed, it would have to be done by SPUC, because we do not have the equipment for this project. Lou Van Hout has been consulted, (last week) and he indicated that SPUC might possibly temporarily remove the C.of C. banners in order to install the Am. flags , then re-install the banners after the weekend, but strongly indicated that this should not be an on-going project for each commemmorative occasion. A more permanent solution will have to be reached before the next flag occasion, which would be July 4th. 2 . The flag brackets could be permanently raised over the C.of C. banners , but would require SPUC to install the American Flag for each occasion, because a bucket truck is required for this project . 3. The Chamber banners could be lowered so that they are below the flag brackets , then the Public Works crews could still install the Am. flags by using the current step ladder in the dump box method. (This method Tags - continued is somewhat dangerous . ) However , if the Chamber banners are lowered , they will be subject to vandalism from street level . Some direction should be given by yourself or the City Council before the weekend , because this work would have to be done by Friday, to avoid the possibility of paying overtime . Also, if SPUC is to be involved , they would need some lead time for crew scheduling to remove the banners , or raise the flag brackets . Also , if SPUC is to be involved, this directive would have to come from the City Council . 4. Return the responsibility of installing the American flags to the American Legion, or not install these flags for the commemorative occasions .
