Officers Gary Nosbusch and Dave Nelson responded to the scene of a fatal accident on Hwy 169 in front Of Gopher State Truck Stop on January 1, 1988 at approximately 2107 hrs. Because of their quick response and excellent assistance the necessary information was gathered and the scene was cleared without further incident or injury. A$ you know, I have worked this area for eight years and have been involved with officers from your department on many occasions. Each time I have experienced excellent cooperation and I hope that I have also- given that same cooperation when your department has needed it. In closing I would Like to express my appreciation again to Gary and Dave for their assistance. It makes a sometimes difficult job like ours easier to preform when you know the assistance is there when you need it. inc y, i TFC J rey GladfelLer �2 Minnesota State Patrol ie ANN _ 7 "AR—HwN 6 Conference C-mr' January 4, 1988 JANo 71988 CITyCF Mr. Tom Brownell Chief of Police - Shakopee Police Department 476 Gorman Street Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 Dear Chief Brownell: I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and your department for all the assistance given to us in the past year. The entire Shakopee Police Department has been extemely courteous and helpful. All of your officers conduct themselves in a very professional manner and are very willing to answer our questions and aid us whenever necessary.

The company did a rush job and the shipment arrived 12/23. Lou Van Hour made arrangements for his men to install the equipment the week of 12/28 while he was on vacation. We met with them on 12/28 and at that time it was ascertained that the push button and its cover was not sturdy enough for the potential treatment that it would receive. S.P.U.C. personnel also questioned some other aspects of the project. I met with Lou Van Hour on 1/6 after he was back from vacation and we agreed that he could order a different button similar to what you see on streets that activate stop light walk signals. He is giving this top priority and as soon as the new button arrives it will be installed. The timers that we purchased still will be used. A COOPERATIVE EFFORT OF THE CITY OF SHAKOPEE AND SCHOOL DISTRICT 720 SINCE 1954 MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Ken Ashfeld, City Engineer SUBJECT: Sidewalk at Fourth and Fuller DATE: December 29, 1987 This is in follow up to a site inspection of the sidewalk located on the southeast quadrant of Fourth Avenue and Fuller Street . Councilmember Wampach brought up the issue of the slope of the sidewalk. The sidewalk has longitudinal slope that matches the street and cross slope that conforms to accepted standards . Jerry and I agreed that there was not much that could be done to flatten the slope and that handrails are impractical for this type of application.

Batty decision to adopt a less beneficial metropolitan tier Willem P.Jordan P William R.Skellerud rate design for outer suburban telephone customers. Rodney D.Anderson Corrine A. Heine Dad D. Beaudoin This Order reflects a significant, though not complete, Stepan M.Tallen victory in the SBA' s attempt to reduce tier differen- Mary Frances Skala tials. This most recent round of challenges to the Tier Dhdnopher J.Har i fail Timothy J. Pawlenw System has accomplished at least two things. It ensures Rolf A.Sponheim Tier III and IV customers that they will not pay in- Julie A.Bergh creased telephone rates as a result of the Commission' s Derry L Hfteaman David C. Roland redeliberation of the 1984 Northwestern Bell rate deci- Karen A. Chameriik sion. The SRA asked for a reduction and the April 3, Paul D.Baertschi 1967, Order resulted in an increase. It has also moved the issue of the Tier System to the forefront of matters to be addressed by the Commission in subsequent proceed- ings. First, the dollar benefit to Tier III and IV, as well as Tier II, customers as a result of SRA supported positions is significant. As a result of the original redelibera- tion of the .1984 Northwestern Bell case, Tier II custom- ers will clearly benefit. The Commission ordered a $12,000,000 reduction in overall annual revenue increas- es, some of which will inure to the benefit of Tier II customers. The $12,000,000 reduction could be applicable from July 27, 1984 through as late as 1989. The SRA's most recent challenge resulting in the attached order will save Tier III and IV residential and business customers a combined figure of over $600,000 per year. December 28, 1987 Page 4 New telephone rates for Tier I and II customers will not be known until all appeals from the Commission Redeliberation have been resolved. We expect a final decision on the Northwestern Bell appeals some time during the early spring of 1988. Second, as a direct or indirect result of SRA efforts, the Commission has made the Tier System one of the major issues in the present Extended Area Service proceeding. The SRA is sponsoring a witness, Bruce Nawrocki, to express the SRA policy against the perpetuation and expansion of the Tier System.

I enclose a copy of that case in which the City of Maplewood granted a conditional use permit for the construction of a parking lot adjacent to a garden center on property zoned for residential use. This special use permit allowed only parking and prohibited storage. Fifteen years later the owner obtained a building permit from the City to construct a trailer garage in the parking lot. The garage was apparently almost done when the neighbors complained, the City discovered its error and issued a stop work order. The owner sued contending he relied and the Trial Court granted a summary judgment in favor of the owner. The Appellate Court reversed and said that the owner was presumed to have knowledge of the restrictions in the conditional use permit and cannot now be heard to rely on the error of the City. The good guys do win sometimes.

Please distribute to governing body member JANUARY. 1988 O.K. everyone, write it out, 1988, 1988, checks, appointment books, letter, -- and have a great year! "STOCK MARKET CRASH" Our clients seem largely unaffected by market crash talk. School, county, and city projects are going forward. Matter of fact, the best time to build is when other are retrenching. Better quality construction at a lower cost, faster work, and possibly lower interest rates are easier to obtain. Payment is in the future when times are better. EHLERS AND ASSOCIATES IS GROWING! While many bond underwriter have reduced operations or pulled out of municipal underwriting altogether, Ehler and Associates is growing. With the formation of Ehler Capital and Development, Inc. this Fall, we recruited Mike Grossman to provide development services to the public and private sector. Steve Emerson from Miller & -Schroeder has joined us with over twelve year experience in financial advisory work. We welcome the expertise and background of both. ARE CITIES GIVING AWAY TOO MUCH FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT? Ehler and Associates recently assisted New Ulm, Minnesota in analyzing a developer's proposal requiring substantial public improvement financing. Jeanne Frederick developed a new computer program that calculates how much city financing is appropriate and how much a city might expect to recapture depending on the developer's mortgage interest rate, rents and retail sales actually realized. In this case Ehler and Associates prospectively saved the City approximately $400,000 plus interest (about $725,000 total) of tax increment contributions that we determined were not necessary to support the project. The program is an invaluable new tool for evaluating the public role in economic development. LEASE PURCHASING "Lease purchasing" is becoming accepted as a means of buying improvements, including buildings, but governing bodies have to be alert to the real terms. One county who was offered an extremely favorable "net" interest rate which, after close examination, was after deducting investment earnings. The actual rate was 4% higher when figured conventionally. Some say that lease/purchase deals are complex and must be negotiated privately with an underwriter. They are more complex than standard general obligation bonds, but rating agencies, insurers, and underwriters understand and competitively bid them. All our lease/purchase issues went to public sale with excellent results. Academic studies show that negotiated sales cost .75% higher interest, which amounts to $100,000 on a $1 million, 20-year issue. Ask Cass County, North Dakota and Clay, Becker, and Sherburne Counties in Minnesota about our success. Carolyn Drude is also working on lease/purchase projects in Beltrami and Chisago Counties. UPCOMING CONVENTIONS We're looking forward to seeing you at the upcoming conventions: National Association of Housino and Redevelopment Organizations -- January 13-15 at the Holiday Inn Downtown Mankato.

Barbara Menden, C Fission Secretary PROCEEDINGS OF THE DOWNTOWN AD HOC COMMITTEE REGULAR SESSION CITY HALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS DECEMBER 16, 1987 Chairman Laurent called the meeting to order at 7:41 a.m. with Harry Kohler, Rubin Ruehle, Jerry Wampach, Jim Stillman, Rev. Mary Keen and Terry Forbord present. Absent were Bill Wermerskirchen, Joe Topic, and Ex-Officio Member Tim Keane. Also present were Barry Stock, Administrative Assistant; John Anderson, City Administrator; Dennis Kraft, Community Development Director; and Bob Schmitt, County Assessor. Funding for the downtown signs was discussed. Also, favorable comments from the committee relating to the Downtown Update. Chairman Laurent introduced two new members - Rev. Mary Keen and Rubin Ruehle. Forbord/Stillman moved to approve the agenda with the following to be added under other business: Council Vacancy, Request for update on information regarding Mini-Bypass and Benches. Motion carried unanimously. Forbord/Kohler moved to approve the minutes of the November 25, 1987 minutes. Motion carried unanimously. The Administrative Assistant briefly summarized the revolving loan program. He stated that City will work with the bank to provide funding for the rehabilitation of downtown buildings. The City's interest rate will depend on the term of the loan. The minimum loan amount is $5,000. This program cannot be used for the rehabilitation of rental units. The banks will use their own loan guidelines in approving or denying the loans. If there are cases that the bank will not approve, the City might still consider the loan. Funding for the program will come from tax increment assessments, the H.R.A. reserve fund or grants. The H.R.A. will be approving the loans for the City. Mr. Laurent asked if the loan payments were amortized over the period of the loan. Mr. Kraft stated that there is no specification either for a balloon payment or amortization. The suggestion was made that "Economic Development Director" be substituted for the name Dennis R. Kraft in the documents. Discussion was held regarding the submission of personal and business financial statements in case of the bank not approving the loan. Mr. Kraft suggested that if the City is the primary loan holder, participants would submit their financial statements to an independent accounting firm selected by the City. The accounting firm would then prepare a financial report on the applicant. It was suggested to change the order of Step Six and Step Seven on page 8. Discussion was held relating to the position of the City in lien rights. Mr. Forbord requested a /.6 Downtown Ad Hoc Committee December 16, 1987 Page 2 clarification of the use of bond counsel fees. Mr. Stock stated that this might occur in a large project that utilizes several funding mechanisms. Mr. Forbord brought up the matter of the bank having the first mortgage and that the City would hold an inferior position to the mortgagee. Mr. Stock stated that applicants must comply with the City's design standards and specifications. Preliminary Plans and Specifications will be submitted by the applicants. A clause for payment of consultants' fee should be included. Step two, D. add other related costs and state Bond Counsel Fee, if applicable. The necessary amount of owner equity in the property was discussed. Mr. Kraft stated that this would be determined on a case-by-case basis. Forbord/Kahleck moved to table this matter until staff has redrafted the guidelines as to the above comments. Motion carried unanimously. Questions were addressed to Mr. Bob Schmitt, County Assessor. The first question was posed by the Administrative Assistant and related to the impact on taxes of the Downtown Street Improvements. - Mr. Schmitt stated that the Streetscaping project itself will not affect property taxes. They will only increase if properties are sold and the market value is increased due to sale prices and a higher demand for property in the Downtown. He went on to state that property market values could also increase if Downtown property owners experience higher retail sales and income. Mr. Schmitt stated that the commercial values in downtown have been going up over the last few years. Another State increase of (10%) has been received and is payable next year. Mr. Schmitt stated that the tax valuation of properties may increase, but it is not due to the streetscaping being done. The only way that would increase the values is if the properties are selling for more. Vacant land will also be increased, but not as much as occupied commercial property. The Downtown Survey was discussed with the suggestion that a personal representative from the City go out to collect the surveys if enough response is not obtained. All occupants and landlords involved in Phase I will receive it. Feedback on parking will be asked for after Phase II. Specific benefits relating to the small group meeting if attended were discussed. Suggestions for improving vehicle and pedestrian /6 Downtown Ad Hoc Committee December 16, 1987 - - Page 3 access will be requested in the survey. An explanation of nodes should be included in the survey. A letter of appreciation from Betti Lu's and a letter of appreciation from the City to Gene Brown for implementing temporary parking were received by the Committee. It was the consensus of the Committee that a letter from the Downtown Committee be sent to the family of Bill A. Wermerskirchen, Sr. acknowledging his work for Downtown. The Administrative Assistant will draft a letter relating to this issue. Mr. Anderson stated that the Council vacancy issue was tabled by council until the new Council comes in. Mr. Ashfeld stated that a design engineer has been hired to go ahead with the Mini-Bypass final design plans. There has been no delay on this project. January 13, 1988 will be the next meeting of this body. Mr. Wampach suggested that the Committee recommend that no additional benches be ordered for Part I, Phase II. Mr. Ashfeld stated that originally, 24 benches were ordered for Phase I, Part II. He went on to state that this amount could be increased or decreased by simply contacting the contractor. Kahleck/Stillman moved to recommend to City Council that the benches on Phase I, Part II not be ordered until Phase I, Part II is complete and an assessment is made to determine how many benches are needed. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Wampach reviewed the possible removal of the railroad crossings near Apgar and closing of Apgar between 1st and 2nd Avenues. Forbord/Stillman moved to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously. the meeting was adjourned at 9:10 a.m. Barry Stock Administrative Assistant Peggy Swagger Recording Secretary ADHOCDEC16 17 MEMO TO: City Council FROM: LeRoy Houser, Building Official RE: Senior Citizen Congregate Dining DATE: January 7, 1988 INTRODUCTION To clarify a number of questions regarding our involvement in the congregate dining facility and other related senior programs, I offer the following: BACKGROUND When the senior highrise was in the design stage, Council and Scott Carver Economic Council decided that there was a need for a subsidized elderly housing facility and also a definite need for a congregate dining facility to meet the nutrition needs of a number of Shakopee senior citizens. This decision was based on a survey conducted by both agencies and was confirmed by the developer through his independent survey, which was a required document for his financial institution. The developer agreed to construct the dining facility and lease it back to the City for $1.00 per year plus our share of the utilities. We in turn, provided the original equipment necessary for the kitchen to function (stove, freezer, dishwasher, refrigerator, tables, chairs, etc) . It was our original responsibility to maintain the equipment in working order. Scott Carver's responsibility toward the program is writing the federal grant from Met Council, food purchasing, menu planning, hire kitchen help and provide in service training for kitchen employees to assure federal and state sanitation standards. The Council in their wisdom decided prior to construction of the facility that a need existed and should be met. They decided it was one of the most positive, visible actions they could take, and to date it has been extremely successful. It is my guess any thought of cutting back in this area could be uncomfortable for any incumbent if the cutback can be laid at his/her feet. Our hard cost for the dining program is as follows: Rent $ 1. 00 per year Gas $ 6,429. 13 per year Electricity $ 5,642.73 per year Cleaning $ 6,628.97 per year Inspection Costs $ 650.00 per year Commercial Cleaning $ 600.00 per year Misc. Repairs & Maint. $ 1,000.00 per year Total Cost. $20, 951.83 r ? To measure the worth of the program, one must realize that 75 to 100 people are served per day, 5 days per week, 52 weeks per year, say an average of 80 meals per day or 20,800 meals per year. Over 508 of the meals served are served to people not living in the highrise. In many cases, it represents the only well balanced, nutritional meal some of the seniors receive each day. There is no charge for the meals. A donation of $1.50 per meal is requested to offset the federal cutbacks and maintain a good nutrition level. If the seniors cannot afford to donate $1.50 they can donate as little as they want to or nothing at all. To expand on the positive, visible aspect of this program, as you know, I put on a fish fry for the seniors every year. Because of my employment position with the City, the seniors think the Council puts it on for them and I am there working. I have been asked hundreds of times to thank the Council for the fish fry and also the Christmas party which the Lions, K.C. 's and J.C. 's put on for them. Other then the original equipment the City purchased for them, I have managed to hit the "street" for mixers, blenders, grinders and cutters at no cost to the Council. Still, I receive thank you notes addressed to the Council for their donations of these items. The program the Council set up to provide this service is working as intended. It is visible and positive. It provides a considerable amount of P.R. for the Council. It provides the biggest bang for your buck you will ever getl I sincerely hope the new Council will retain this old idea if not for anything other then the humanitarian reasons.

Recently, we sent a survey to our members asking them to rate the various inspection departments of communities in the metro area. Communities were judged on ease in taking out permits, permit fee structure and availability and knowledge of inspectors, among other things. Your community was ranked as having one of the better inspection departments in the metro area by the majority of the contractors responding. We, as an association, wish to thank you for helping our contractors � operate more effectively and within the law in your community- This type of cooperation is good for the customer, the contractor and the community. Again, we thank you, and hope that this good relationship will continue. Sincerely, Donald Sullivan Executive Director Minnesota PHCC MINNESOTA ASSOCIATION OF PLUMBING-HEATING-COOLING CONTRACTORS, INC. Mr. Bradley D. Swanson Page Two January 14 , 1988 The City is willing to permit the reduction of the letter of credit as improvements are completed and the one year warranty period has expired. The improvements to Lot 4 have been made, however, the warranty period has not expired. Upon expiration of the one year warranty period, the City is agreeable to permit the existing letter of credit to be reduced by an amount equal to the value of the improvements to Lot 4.

City Council � o CITY OF SHAKOPEE H INCORPORATED 1870 129 EAST FIRST AVENUE,SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA 553794376 (612) 4453650 !wy January 14, 1988 Mr. Bradley D. Swanson Attorney at Law 5000 Colfax Avenue South Minneapolis, MN 55419 Re: Letter of Credit for J.O.N. Investment Company Century Plaza Square 3rd Addition - Dear Mr. Swanson: This letter is in follow up to your letter dated December 30, 1987 to Mr. John Anderson and in follow up to our telephone - conservation this morning. The letter of credit on file with the City from J.O.N. Investment Company is a requirement of the developers agreement for Century Plaza Square 3rd Addition.- Within the developers agreement, the developer selected Plan A, whereby the improvements are made by the developer rather than by the City and assessed. The letter of credit is to assure that the developer makes these improvements. Both the City Attorney and I agree that the letter of credit on file should not be released until the improvements have been made and the one year warranty period covering the work has been completed. Pursuant to our telephone conversation, there are two alternatives which the City would consider in lieu of the letter of credit from J.O.N. Investment Company. First, the City could accept a letter of credit from Helen and Clete Link in exchange for releasing the letter of credit from J.O.N. Investment Company. Secondly, the City could consider accepting a request from the current property owners of Lots 2, 3 and 4 to amend the developers agreement by transferring the improvements from Plan A (to be constructed by developer) to Plan B (to be constructed by the City) . The Heart of Progress Valley JULIUS A. COLLEN.R JULie A . A ATTORNEY aT Law ssiso�E wEs. ..,, . SHAEOPEE. MINNESOTA 553Z9 Memo to: Mrs. Judith Cox, City Clerk From: Julius A. Culler, II, City Attorney Date: January 13, 1988 Re: Letter of Credit No. 169 hereinafter referred to J.O.N. Investment Company, the developer of Century Plaza Square, Third Addition, signed a Developer's Agreement in July of 1985 together with Helen and Cletus Link and in consideration of the said agreement and subsequent cooperation by the City of Shakopee pursuant thereto, the investment company obtained a Letter of Credit from the First National Bank of Shakopee No. 169 in the sum and amount of $19,129.57 in favor of the City and to guarantee performance by the Developer Investment Company of its share of the Developer's Agreement. Subsequently, the investment company defaulted on its payment to the Links under the terms of Contract for Deed covering the above described property and as a result Links terminated the contract for deed and J.O.N.Investment Company no longer has any interest in the property. They now ask that the City release the Letter of Credit. It is my opinion and I strongly recommend that the Letter of Credit not be released until - A. All the improvements required to be made have been made and paid for, and B. The warranty period covering the work so done and completed expires, or C. Until Helen and Cletus Link, present fee owners, obtain and deliver to the City a like Letter of Credit to be filed in place of the one now held by the City and above referred to. BRADLEY D. SWANSON ATTORNEY AT LAW 5000 COLFAX AVE. S. MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55419 (612) 824-8105 _ December 30, 1987 City of Shakopee City Hall 129 East First Avenue Shakopee, MN 55379 Attention: City Council John Anderson, City Manager Gentlemen, This letter serves to put you on notice that J. 0. N. Investment Company, a partnership comprised of Leland Jonason, Dennis Olson and Carl Nelson, no longer has any equitable nor legal interest in 'the tract they were- developing known as: Century Plaza Square 3rd Addition, Lots 1-4. The land has reverted back to the fee owner, Cletus Link, after Link had served a Notice of Cancellation on J. 0. N. 's Contract for Deed on August 1, 1987, (CD dated May 31, 1985, and recorded on October 8, 19853 as document #214178) as per MN. Stat. #559.21. J. 0. N. has made no effort to cure their defaults during the ninety (90) day period of redemption set out in the Cancellation Notice. Nor has J. 0. N. requested any extensions of their redemption period as per MN. Stat. ¢582.01 to $583.12. Consequently, the contract has been cancelled and thus is terminated per statute and has now reverted back to the fee owner, Cletus Link. Therefor , at stronglyes consider releasing J. 0. N.N. gfrom sthe aIrrevocable Council of Credit No. 124, originally dated July 12, 1985, in the amount of $19,129.57, now held by the City with the First National Bank of Shakopee. For in conformance with the provisions of the development agreement entered into on July 8, 1985, between the City of Shakopee and J. 0. N. Investment Company (document 5215698), J. O. N. has performed its obligations on the lots it sold and developed; namely lots 5 1 and 54. Under the Development Agreement (page 2), J. 0. N. was only liable for Plan A Improvements (sidewalks and drainage, grading and storm sewer laterals per plans) on all lots they sold and developed. J. 0. N. has performed these obligations as fully as possible. Plan A Improvements have been fully performed on Lot 51 sold to Bohlen.. Lots u2 and 53 are December 30, 1987 City of Shakopee Page 2 still unsold, and thus were not developed by J. 0. N. (Link now owns these remaining two (2) lots). Lot #4 has been completed except for the sidewalks which J. 0. N. attempted to put in, but were ultimately denied from installing because the owner, Murray R. Williamson, representing the Shakopee Super Eight (8) Partnership, did not want to disturb his already installed underground sprinkler system. Thus, J. 0. N. certainly attempted to put in the sidewalk, but were refused by the owner. Pursuant to the Development-Agreement on page eleven (11) (D- Release of Developers Agreement), the Agreement states it will release the developers upon completion or partial completion of Plan A Improvements. As explained above, J. 0. N. has performed fully on Lot #1 and as fully as possible on Lot #4, and, therefore, asks to be released from the letter of credit described herein. Furthermore, pursuant to pages ten (10) (B) and eleven (11) (Binding Effect), the Agreement specifically states that its provisions: shall be binding upon all future owners of all or any. part of the subdivision and shall be deemed covenants running with the land." Consequently, the developmental obligations, on the remaining lots #2 and #3, shall be binding upon the present owner, Cletus Link, as per the Development Agreement (pages 10 and 11 ) (B). In conclusion, J. 0. N. strongly urges the City Council to consider their request to be released from the letter of credit described herein. Again, J. 0. N. stresses that they have fully performed their obligations as far as possible on the lots they developed (#1 and #4) and that the other two lots (#2 and #3) have reverted back to the fee owner, Letus Link. , J. 0. N. requests a clarification on this matter as soon as possible as their letter of credit is up for renewal January 1, 1988. If you have any further questions, please call me at 824-8105. 1 appreciate your time spent on considering this matter, and hope we can settle this soon.

I believe that this issue will go a long way in educating Shakopee residents on what tax increment entails. I have taken extra efforts to make sure this issue is not biased in favor of or against tax increment financing. I have tried to simply state the facts. The issue will also include a section updating residents on several of the major projects now underway in Shakopee (attachment #2) . A tax facts section and 1987 Annual Building Report Information (see attachment #3) will complete the content of the February Issue. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the content of the January Community Development Commission Newsletter, please feel free to call me at 445-3650 on or before January 27, 1988. Attachment pl THE MECHANICS OF TAX INCREMENT FINANCING Tax Increment Financing (TIF) is a financing technique utilized by cities to encourage economic development and/or redevelopment. Approximately thirty-two states have statutes that authorize the use of TIF. Since its inception in Minnesota, over 200 cities have utilized TIF. Policy Consideration Tax increment financing has been the topic of political controversy since its inception. The major point of contention is that tax increment financing allows cities to take revenues away from counties, school districts and their own service departments in order to subsidize private development. In response to these arguments, TIF can be considered as one of the few remaining tools available to cities to encourage economic development; the rehabilitation of blighted areas to preserve the city's tax base; provide job opportunities; and assist in the construction of housing for low and moderate income families. Additionally, it should be pointed out that State law mandates thr following: "If a development project could be constructed without TIF assistance, then TIF cannot be used. -- Economic sed. "Economic Realities Communities in the metropolitan area compete with each other to attract commercial and industrial tax base. Many communities offer free land or property tax incentives to developers who locate in their community. Tax increment financing is the tool most often used to finance these incentives. Providing these types of incentives to developers has positive effects on a community. For example, if 100 new jobs are generated by a new business, many of these persons will build or buy homes in the community. These persons will also purchase many of their household needs from merchants within the community. Other benefits may include the elirination of deteriorated structures and the improvement of blighted land that may not have otherwise been suitable for development. Without the full utilization of this economic development tool, the City of Shakopee may face the possibility of the deterioration of its tax base and the possibility of higher _ residential taxes in relation toother communities in the metropolitan area. Shakopee's Use of TIF In addition to paying off bonded indebtedness, proceeds from Shakopee tax increment projects have been used to finance all or part of the following public improvements: _ Industrial Park Water Tower Industrial Park Water Wells Industrial Park Water Mains Industrial Park Roadway Improvements Upper Valley Drainageway Downtown Redevelopment Project Downtown Bridge and Mini By-pass Second Ave Parking Lot Signalization On T.H. 101 Levee Dr. Road Improvements Sr. Hi-Rise Water Main Holmes St. Basin Storm Sewer It is important to note that if it had not been for the availability of tax increment financing, these public improvement projects either would not have occurred or would have had to be financed through municipal property taxes and/or other sources such as special assessments or user fees. How It Works Minnesota's Tax Increment Financing Act includes provisions governing the establishment of three types of tax increment districts: (1) Redevelopment, (2) Housing , and (3) Economic Development. The mechanics of tax increment financing can best be explained by an example: Within the City there is created a hypothetical tax increment District. (The creation of a TIF district normally requires a finding that the property within the district is blighted. ) Parcel A, located within the District generates $12,900 in real. estate taxes per year. Tax Computation Process 1. The local assessor determines that the market value of Parcel A is $300,000. 2. By law, 43% (the assessment ratio) of the market value of commercial property is subject to the property tax, or $129,000. ($300,000 x .43) 3. The combined mill rate in the City (City, County, School District) is 100 mills or 0.100. 4. The owner of the Parcelpays $129,000 x .100. or $12,900 in property taxes. A developer investigates the possibility of constructing an office structure on the Parcel and determines that due to the blighted conditions of the site, redevelopment efforts would be cost prohibitive without the use of TIF. The City agrees to enter into a contract with the developer for the construction of a $5 million dollar office facility on parcel A. The City agrees to acquire the parcel, prepare it for development and resell it to the developer for the initial acquisition cost of $300, 000. The City issues $835,000, of tax increment bonds to cover the up front costs of the project. The proceeds are expended by the City as follows: Capitalized Interest (to pay interest on $178, 000 bonds until tax increment becomes avail- able through normal ad valorem taxation process) Issuance Costs (legal and fiscal) 17, 000 Discount (paid to underwriter to purchase and resell bond) 15, 000 Land Acquisition (Parcel C) 300, 000 Demolition (existing Buildings) 50, 000 Relocation (per Federal Act) 50, 000 Utilities (on site) 200, 000 Administration (City) 25. 000 $835, 000 When completed, the new office building will have a fair market value for real estate tax purposes at $5. 0 million which results in a new "assessed value" of $2,150, 000 for property taxes after applying the 43$ assessment ratio. Through the normal and customary ad valorem tax system the combined City mill rate of 100 will result in annual real estate taxes of $215,000. $12,900 of this amount will be paid to the City, County and School District just as before the development occurred. In other words, the local taxing jurisdictions are not affected by the existence of the tax increment district. Additionally, it is important to note that the developer is paying property taxes just like every other commercial property in the City. The difference between the original value of the property taxes collected ($12,900) and the new value of the property taxes collected ($215,000) is called the tax increment, and in this example is $202,100. The increment is dedicated by the City for repayment of the $835, 00 outstanding bonded indebtedness incurred by the City. In this example, tax increments can be collected by the City for eight years. At the end of the eight year period, the entire annual value of the taxes generated by this project ($215, 000) will be split between the three major local taxing jurisdictions, and other small taxing entities. Attachment #2 Minnesota Valley Mall Proiect The Essex Corporation of Omaha, Nebraska is in the process of purchasing the Minnesota Valley Mall. The Essex Corporation intends to extensively remodel the mall. The developer has also indicated that they would like the City to consider the possible location of either an ice skating facility or possibly a community center as a part of this facility. The Shakopee City Council has appointed a committee which is working with the City staff and the developer on the possible location of recreation facilities within the mall. It is anticipated that in the near future there will be contacts made with various recreation interests in the City of Shakopee. City Council action on this project is expected in mid February, 1988. Meadows 1st Addition Meritor Development Corporation is in the process of developing 163 acres located East of Spencer Street (County Road #79) and South of 11th Avenue (formerly Roberts Gravel Pit) . The development of the property is planned to take 4 to 5 years to complete. When complete the project will have a total of 340 lots and up to 144 apartment or town house units. The final plat for the first phase of the development containing 51 single family lots has been approved by the City Council. Lots should be available in 1988. - Stonebrooke Golf Course PUD In January the Shakopee City Planning Commission approved the final plat for Stonebrooke First Addition. This plat is the first phase of a residential development located on an 18 hole golf course north of O'Dowd Lake. The first phase of the development includes 25 single family and 5 twin home lots. Residential construction is expected to begin in late spring. Eventually, Laurent Builders plan on developing an additional 52 single familynd 7 twin home lots. The golf course is expected to begin operation in the summer of 1989. County Village Apartments Minnetonka Woods Development is currently working on the construction of County Village Apartments. This three story apartment complex will provide 113 rental units. The development is located adjacent to County Road 17 south of the Junior High School. Construction is scheduled to be completed and rental units will be available this summer. Attachment #3 Property Tax Facts The median property tax on an $80,000 house in the Twin Cities in 1987 is $828, according to the annual property tax survey conducted by the Citizens League. However, property tax rates vary greatly across the Twin Cities. Below are the 10 communities with the highest property taxes and the 10 communities with the lowest property taxes (on an $80, 000 house) in the region. Included in the survey were the 95 metro communities with populations over 2, 500. Ton 10 Bottom 10 1. Jordan: $1,175 1. Eagan: $558 2. Shakopee: $1,160 2. Mendota Heights: $559 3 . St. Paul: $1,129 3. West St. Paul: $561 4. Prior Lake: $1,118 4 . Spring Lake Township: $570 S. Savage: $1,066 5. Forest Lake Township: $580 6. Belle Plaine: $1,065 6. Lake Elmo: $584 7. Little Canada: $1,054 7. Grant Township: $611 8. Farmington: $1,035 S. Edina: $640 9. Falcon Heights: $1,003 9. Ham Lake: $674 10. Maplewood: $989 10. New Scandia Twnship: $687 It should be noted that five of the top six communities with the highest property taxes are located in Scott County. Recent County cash flow problems and the County's position atop the metro property tax survey listing have prompted the Scott County Board to confront this problem. On December 22, 1987 the Scott county Board directed staff to conduct an in-depth study of the County's financial condition, its budget and levy planning practices. 1987 Annual Building Activity Report Single Family Dwellings - 62 Multiple Family Dwellings - 8 (129 units) Commercial Bldgs.

K-Mart will be expanding and a letter from their corporate offices stating this was attached. The Hockey Association will have to get involved in order to make this project happen and usage of their equipment would be a crucial factor in the success of the idea.

Cox, City Clerk RE: Vacation of Easements in Prairie House 1st Addition DATE: January 13, 1988 Introduction The City has received an application from Curtis Bradford requesting that the City consider vacating the 20 foot drainage and utility easement around Lots 1 and 2, Block 1, Prairie House 1st Addition. Background The Planning Commission has given preliminary and final approval of Bradberg 1st Addition (Prairie House 2nd Addition) which plat will replat that part of Prairie House 1st Addition which includes Lots 1 and 2 and all that part of Outlot A which was not recently acquired by Fish and Wildlife. Within the replat, utility and drainage easements are being provided around all of the lot lines, which is standard procedure. It is not necessary to retain the drainage and utility easements around the old lot lines, and Mr. Bradford is requesting that they be vacated so that will not pose a problem should a building need to be erected across one of them. The City Planning, City Engineer, Shakopee Public Utilities Manager, Public Works Superintendent, and Minnegasco, Inc. have reviewed the request and have OR'ed the vacation. As in the past (Shakopee Valley Square 1st Addition) , staff recommends holding the public hearing and delaying adopting the resolution of vacation until the final plat has been properly executed and ready for recording. This process will insure easements around the existing lots in Prairie House 1st Addition should Prairie House 2nd Addition never be completed and recorded. Alternatives After holding the public hearing: 1. Deny request. 2. Direct staff to prepare the vacating resolution. 3. Direct staff to prepare the vacating resolution when the final hard shells are prepared and executed and filed with the City. g � Recommendation Alternative No. 3, direct staff to prepare the vacating resolution when the final hard shells are prepared and executed and filed with the City.

BACKGROUND: In February, 1987 Mr. Gary Laurent and Mr. Tom Haugen submitted a Preliminary PUD Plan and Preliminary Plat for the development of approximately 200 acres located North of O'Dowd Lake, East of County Road 79 and South of County Road 77. The proposed development contains an 18 hole golf course surrounded by 85 lots 76 of which shall be single family lots and 9 of which will be used for twin homes. On April 21, 1987 the Shakopee City Council approved the Preliminary PUD and plat for the O'Dowd Lake Estates Golf Club Project now known as Stonebrooke. On July 14, 1987 the Shakopee City Council approved the Final PUD Plan for Stonebrooke. The developer has submitted a final plat for the first phase of the project which includes 25 single family lots and 5 twin home lots. The plat also identifies lots on which the golf course project shall be located and areas to be developed as residential lots with future phases are shown as Outlots. As required by the conditions of the Final PUD approval, the developer has submitted a revised sewer plan and will be providing sewer easements to individual lots for the construction of septic systems within the golf course area should the need ever arise. The development will have a central water system serving all the lots. As part of the approval of the Final PUD the City agreed to lease 66 feet of park land between Lakeview Drive and Lake O'Dowd for $1.00 to Laurent Builders in exchange for the developers maintenance of the property. The plat also provides a 60 foot right-of-way on Lakeview Drive South connecting the cul-de-sac to County Road 79. Within this right-of-way a 16 foot emergency - access road will be constructed with break away barriers at both ends, the developer will maintain the access road. The developer will also construct a trail connecting Timber Trails Addition to O'Dowd Park. The trail will be constructed to the specifications of the City Engineer and count toward the park dedication requirements of the developer.

Lhe Coun0y Recorder, Scot: EXHIBIT A MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Douglas K. Wise, City Planner RE: Stonebrooke 1st Addition Final Plat DATE: January 22, 1988 INTRODUCTION• It has come to my attention that Mr. Don McKush has distributed a 3 page list of issues regarding the final plat for Stonebrooke 1st Addition. Following is the City Staffs response to Mr. McKush's concerns. STAFF RESPONSE: The following is the Staffs response to the concerns expressed by Mr. McKush (copy attached) : Mr. McKush's initial concern is that the proposed plat is not in conformance with the Citys comprehensive plan. The City in adopting its comprehensive plan divided the rural area into two primary Districts, one which has been zoned Agricultural is for the purpose of agricultural preservation, the second District is zoned Rural Residential and is for the purpose of allowing rural residential development on larger lots. The proposed development is located in the Rural Residential District and the Shoreland. zoning District which also allows development on larger rural lots. Review and approval of the preliminary and final Planned Unit Development determined that the project was in conformance with the plan and all of the City's Code requirements. The following letters correspond to those used in Mr. McKush's comments. A. Mr. McKush is correct in stating that the high water mark for O'Dowd Lake is 945.2, the elevation of 943 .5 is the officially established water elevation level. The code requires that the City utilize the high water mark for determining setbacks when it is known. When the high water mark is not known the City utilizes the water elevation level. City Staff has reviewed the proposed plat and latest revised grading plan using the 945.2 elevation to insure that the lake lots are buildable both from a setback perspective and an elevation perspective. Staff has determined that adequate space exists on all of the lots to meet the setback requirements and the floor elevation requirement for a basement. B. The City in approving the final Planned Unit Development required sewer easements for individual lots within the golf course area. It is the responsibility of the City to insure that septic systems are constructed to City Codes. It is not the responsibility of the City to dictate who shall pay for restoration of the golf course should the home owners be required to construct their septic systems within the golf course. C. - J. These items were all thoroughly discussed during the review of the preliminary and final PUD for the Stonebrooke project. The final PUD plan was approved by the City Council on July 14, 1987. It was determined by the City Council at that time that these issues and all lots and required sewer easements complied with City Code requirements. K. Mr. McKush refers to the numbering of various lots. The plat presented is consistent with City planning requirements which requires the establishment of blocks and within each block the numbering of individual lots beginning with the number 1. L. - N. These items were also thoroughly discussed during the review of the preliminary and final Planned Unit Development and resolved prior to approval of the project by the City Council. The City Council in approving the final Planned Unit Development, included in the approval a condition requiring a final plat be completed for the purpose of officially recording lots and dedicating right-of-way and easements. The Planning Commission thoroughly reviewed and discussed the final plat and found that it complies with all the requirements of the final PUD approval and City Codes. The Planning Commission unanimously recommended to the City Council approval of the final plat. _ ODOWD LAKE GOLF COURSE AND DWELLING PUD COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS CONCERNING THE REQUEST FOR PLAT APPROVAL THE DEVELOPMENT DOES NOT CONFORM TO THE CITY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. That plan calls for: 1 ) Development as sewer and water are available 2) Preservation of wetlands 3) Preservastion of good farm land This PUD locates 100 dwellings about three miles from the end of the sewer and water system. Thus endangering wet lands and Lake O' Dowd. An Environmental Assessment worksheet was distributed. The Metropolitan council was very critical . After a conference with the developers, the Metropolitan Council issued a second statement criticizing the project. _ The development deserves strict enforcement of the laws and regulations. A The city staff used an erroneous water height in concluding that the sites were adequate size. Comments on Memo by the City Planner to the Shakopee Planning Commission 3. a. "The high water mark is 943. 52 The City of Shakpopee engineering department tates that the ordinary high water mark is 945. 2 Request: The city staff should review the plans to determine al lot _size is adequata. . B The proposed arrangement between home owners and the golf course will discourage prompt correction of septic system problems. Declaration of Covenants 4. 3 (d) A member agrees to place the golf course back in its original state of repair, at the cost of the member Request: Since the developer designed the lots, the developer should pay for the restoration of the golf course. The homeowner should not be required to pay more than the normal cost of correcting septic _ problems. [Greens are very expensive to replace. ] Comments to the City Council by wn m ugh AA;-(J2Td.` Page i The septic systems have the possibility of contaminating the lake. The delicate soil conditions in other parts of the development may lead to septic system failures and a demand for extension of the sewers. Roads thru wetlands may have short lives. City staff recommends the city have the right to engage a consultant. Request: An independent soils engineer should be engaged to evaluate each lot. The controversy surrounding this project places an unreasonable burden on the city staff. D The Zoning code requires dedication of land or a payment of fees. The city staff recommends that construction of a trail which primarily benefits the golf course and is necessary for its operation. be credited as part of this fee. Request: The developers be required to pay the usual fees. E Land leased at less than market value The city staff recommends leasing approximately 1/4 acre to the developer for $1. per year Request: The fair market value of the property be estimated and a fair rent charged. F Roads are to be built by the developer The city staff recommends that streets be constructed ' in accordance with city design standards. At the public hearing, one resident said that he had bought a house with a road in and had paid twice again for road reconstruction because it crossed a wetland. Request: Because of the soil conditions the roads should be maintained or guaranteed by the developer for a period of years before the government assumes responsibility for them. Specific Exceptions to Plat approval G On Lakeview Drive (north) Lots 12 and 13 The proposed septic systems are located on a steep hillside. LOT 1. The septic sites are within 150 feet wetland. LOTS 2, 3,4, 5, 7, 8, 9 Sewage easment extends into water. Comments to the City Council by Don MCKush 445-0336 Page 2 On Lakeview Drive (south) Lots 12, 13, 14, 15, 15, 17 These lots do not comply with the ll ordinance which requires two septic sites per lot. These lots are also in jeopardy because of the previously noted water level error. They may not have sufficient area to meet setback requirements. Note: These lots are substantially smaller than the DNR' s suggested 40, 000 sqare feet for lakeside lots. 1 On Londonderry Cove Lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 - These are double houses and should .have more land. Also they do not comply with the septic site requirements. J General - Only four of the thirty lots comply with the ordinance requirement that sewage easement areas be formed within lot lines extended. K General - The marking of different lots with the same number is an inconvenience. Request - They prepare a new. plat correcting the difficulties noted or establishing that the lots are in compliance. L Variances - The Planning Commisssion stated that only a variance . for the 10' set back for septic systems would be granted. Request - The developer should be required to comply with the PUD ordinance. This requires a redesign of this plat. M Quality of Life - The purpose of the PUD is to enable land use with larger open spaces. The original proposal offered residents use of the golf;course on off hours. This planning commission requested this to include the golf course area in meeting the open space requirements. This benefit does not seem to be available now. Request - The developers be required to conform to earlier requirements. N Future - The PUD includes, for future development proposed lots which have poor prospects for septic systems. Request: The city council should advise the developer that approval of the first plat does not imply future approval of lots which are not appropriate or which require variances.

Mean Chairman TO: Shakopee City Council Marilyn Hagerman FROM: Virgil S. Mears Secretary SUBJECT: Annual Report nn the Shakopee Convention/Visitors' Bureau Stan Ockwig Lee Hennen It is a pleasure to report to the council the progress made during the first year of operation for the Convention/Visitors' Lwy Rein Bureau. The Convention/Visitors' Bureau was established in John Anderson January of 1987 and funded by a 3% lodging tax on hotels/motels. Linne■ Stramberg- An agreement was entered into by the city and the Chamber of Commerce whereby the Chamber of Commerce would administer the Wl8e Convention/Visitors' Bureau and oversee the expenditures of Wally Bakken the lodging tax revenues through a nine member Convention/Visitors' Bureau committee. It was my pleasure to Randy Williamson have chaired the Convention/Visitors' Bureau committee for this past year. The members of the Convention/Visitors' Bureau committee were: Mr. Lee Hennen, Mr. Wally Bakken, Mr. Stan Ockwig, Ms. Linnea Stromberg-Wise, Ms. Lucy Rein, Mr. Randy Williamson, Ms. Marilyn Hagermann, Mr. John Anderson and myself. Terms of each member will be for three years but in this first year there were three one-year memberships; three two-year memberships and three three-year memberships. Telephone: (612) 446-1660 Some of the activities in which we participated throughout 1987 were: Set up a working agreement with the City of Shakopee and the Chamber of Commerce regarding operational guidelines; developed a set of By Laws; hired a part-time Director to work on some immediate projects; helped plan, develop and build the. Chamber of Commerce/Convention/Visitors' Bureau building together with the Chamber of Commerce and the city; held an extensive fund raiser; had an open house for the Convention/Visitors' Bureau; did some advertising; participated in F.A.M. program and finally we hired a Director who will serve three quarter time as Convention/Visitors' Bureau Director and one quarter time Home of the: as Executive Director, Chamber of Commerce. MIDWEST ENTERTAMMENT SHOWCASE / d 0— Shakopee City Council Page 2 12/18/87 In late 1986 we developed a budget which we estimated would be approximately $65,000. This budget was broken down into three nearly equal amounts. The first category was intended to advertise Shakopee in new ways and primarily directed to 'entice business and activities here during the off season. Toward this end we hired a part-time Director who developed a plan to lure the Winter Olympics to Shakopee only to have to drop it when the Governor, who had to endorse the plan, elected that the Olympics should be moved around the state. We then investigated the possibility of developing a 10 or 15K cross country ski race and had an indication of interest from Scottland, Inc. , in building the course on their property. We ran into trouble with this proposal when the legislature failed to enact tax relief and the track lost money this past year. Right now this project is on hold pending what happens in the next legislature and next racing season. A third project in the discussion stage is the possibility that perhaps the city and/or a private developer might construct a convention center for groups in excess of 500 people. Canterbury Inn was planning such a facility but again - declining revenue changed that. We feel we could attract some sizeable conferences and conventions with such an attraction, probably year around. The second portion of the budget was designed to continue to advertise and enhance the images of those businesses and tourist attractions which are already located here and to promote Shakopee in general . This portion of the budget allows us to hire a CVB Director and pay related expenses such as clerical , etc. The third section of the budget is mainly focused on rent, utilities, phone and related expenses that accrue to any organization which needs to house people and program. If you were to look at the enclosed budget report you will see that we will probably come within a $1,000 or less of the projected budget. Because we had not hired a Convention/Visitors' Bureau Director and had not been successful in promoting some of our projects we have a rather tidy balance in our account. Obviously this puts us in an excellent position to do more in 1988. We thank you for your support of the Chamber of Conwerce and the Convention/Visitors' Bureau. We feel that progress has been made and that much more will be accomplished in 1988. There will be four (4) new Directors of the Convention/Visitors' Bureau in the 1988 year. Mr. Lee Hennen and Virgil Mears have decided not to serve another term. Mr. Stan Ockwig has changed positions and Mrs. Lucy Rein finds that she cannot continue to serve.

JSC/jms 1166 Harrison Street Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 January 21, 1988 Shakopee City Council 129 East First Avenue Shakopee, Minnesota 55379 At this time I would like to formally submit my application for the recently vacated Shakopee City Council position. My decision was reached upon by the urging of a group of peers and a genuine interest in community affairs. Although I bring no past City Council experience to the position, I do have experience in other areas and an eagerness to become an effective council member. A resident of Shakopee for nearly 5� years, and a homeowner at 1166 Harrison Street for the greater share of that period, I have kept abreast of civic issues and express real concern over problems facing the city now and in the future. I would appreciate the opportunityof becoming part of the problem-solving process and the promising future for this city. A brief background: - Upon graduating from Simpson College with a degree in Business Administration, I went directly into golf course manage- ment in the Des Moines, Iowa area where I remained for nearly 10 years. During that time a turf and ornamental consulting business as well as landscape and golf course design was developed. At this point I became a turf and ornamental specialist for Brayton Chemicals, Inc. and moved to Shakopee. Presently employed by Brayton Chemicals, Inc. , I am also President of TL Haugen Design, Inc. and an active member of the Minnesota Golf Course Superintendents Association, the North Central Turfgrass Association, and the Turfgrass Research Board. And, as most of you know, the "Golf' part of Stonebrooke Golf Club. Through the Stonebrooke project and process, I have become acquainted with the city processes and many individuals on the City Council, Planning Commission, and the staff. I feel that I can compliment these fine bodies and individuals and, in time, become an asset to them and the citizens of Shakopee. Sincerely, e Tom L. Haugen 6 January 20, 1988 Council Interview Committee: At this time I would like to be consdered to fill the vacancy on the City Council. I'm available for an interview.

Stock, Administrative Assistant RE: Trash Receptacles for First Avenue DATE: January 14, 1988 INTRODUCTION• Our current Downtown Redevelopment contract with Harddrives Inc. allows the City of Shakopee to increase or decrease quantities with no effect on the unit price. On January 13, 1988 the Downtown Committee moved to recommend to City Council that eight additional trash receptacles be ordered and placed along First Avenue in conjunction with Phase I Part II of the Downtown Redevelopment Project. BACKGROUND: At the present time there is only one trash receptacle along First Avenue between Fuller Street and Sommerville Street. The Downtown Committee is recommending that City Council consider ordering approximately eight trash receptacles to be placed along First Avenue between Fuller Street and Sommerville Street. The approximate cost for each trash receptacle is $400. Staff has investigated whether or not the City could purchase the trash receptacles from another vendor at a cost lower than our existing bid price. Due to the small quantity of trash receptacles that we would order (8) there would be virtually no cost savings. In fact, if we were to consider the staff time involved in ordering the trash receptacles from a different vendor, the cost per trash receptacle would likely be higher than our current bid price. Since the completion of First Avenue may not occur until completion of the Downtown Mini By-Pass. The Downtown Committee and staff are recommending that approximately eight trash receptacles be ordered and placed along First Avenue in conjunction with Phase I Part II. Total estimated cost is $3200. There is adequate funds within the project to cover the cost of the additional trash receptacles. If Council concurs, it would be appropriate for Council to direct the appropriate City officials to prepare a change order for the provision of the eight trash receptacles will not be necessary. ALTERNATIVES• 1. Direct the appropriate City officials to prepare a change order for the provision of eight trash receptacles to be placed along First Avenue in conjunction with Phase I Part II of the Downtown Redevelopment Project. 2. Direct staff to contact vendors of trash receptacles and receive formal cost quotations for eight trash receptacles. 3. Do nothing. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends alternative #1. ACTION REOUESTED• /0 Move to recommend to City Council that the appropriate City '' officials be directed to prepare a change order for the provision of eight trash receptacles to be placed along First Avenue in conjunction with Phase I Part II of the Downtown Redevelopment Project. /DQ_ MEMO TO: JOHN ANDERSON-ADMINISTRATOR CITY COUNCIL FROM: JIM EARKANEN - PUBLIC WORKS SUBJECT: FLUSHER TRUCK DATE: JAN. 7th, 1988 j INTRODUCTION: The 1987 Capital Equipment budget provided $30,000 for the purchase of a replacement tank/flusher unit for the Public Works department. Bids were opened October 19th, 1987 for a new tank/flusher unit using our old tank/flusher as a trade-in. The Public Works department has also written specifications for a truck to mount the tank/flusher unit upon and is requesting permission to open bids for this unit on Jan. 27th, 1988 . BACKGROUND: The bids were opened for the tank/flusher unit and the successful low bidder was Ruffridge-Johnson Equipment Co. of Minneapolis, who submitted a low bid of $19 , 310.00 for the tank and flusher unit only. This low bid met all of our specifications and we are satisfied with the tank/flusher unit that they propose to supply us. Our original intention was to possibly use the Fire Dept. truck chassis to mount this new tank/ flusher unit but it was found to be incompatible for our purposes because of its length, and the tandem axles, which severely limit the maneuverablity needed in the hockey and skating rinks. We hadn't made a recommendation to award this contract yet, because we have been trying to locate a good used truck which we could use to mount the new tank/flusher unit, and the Fire truck trade- in hadn't been available until now. Because of the unusual specifications and demensions required for this type of installation, we haven't been able to locate such a truck in a good used category. It was our intention to use the Fire Dept. truck, plus the $10, 690 surplus in the Capital Equipment fund from the tank/flusher unit purchase to find a truck used chassis for the installation. We have located several trucks of a newer vintage that will meet our specified needs , and it is now our intention to issue specifications that will include these newer trucks because they are available. We have received informal quotations for a newer truck that is over $15 , 000 limit set by state law for quotations, even though the net price to us is under $15 ,000 including trade-in, the gross price of the truck requires us to advertise with sealed bids for the purchase. Because we have now located a truck for the tank/flusher unit, we can also recommend awarding the flusher unit to the successful low bidder, Ruffridge-Johnson of Mpls. The tank/flusher is a versatile piece of equipment that is used almost daily in all aspects of our public maintenance functions by the Street, Park, and Sewer departments. It is used for flushing streets , wetting down streets prior to street sweeping, flushing manholes and sewer lines, flushing storm sewers, hauling water, watering trees, watering recreational areas and flushing outdoor shelters, as well as flooding and maintaining skating and hockey rinks. Our older unit which was traded in for the tank/flusher unit, is a 1967 model which was purchased used from the City of St. Paul , and is not very reliable any longer. We have attached the low quotation from Boyer Ford Trucks , of Mpls. , for a new truck in the amount of $14,882 .00 net price. They are allowing us $129100 trade-in value for the used fire 'I truck, and we would have to pay the difference using the $10,690 left over in the Capital Equipment fund. In order to make this purchase, we would have to revise the Capital Equipment budget from $30 ,000 to approximately $34,000 to cover this expenditure.

DATE 1988 FIRM Subscribed and sworn ADDRESS before me this day of 1988 BY Notary Public, My Commission expires TITLE i I MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Dennis R. Kraft, Community Development Director RE: Process to be used to determine who should be given the Murphy's Landing Operations Contract DATE: January 14, 1988 INTRODUCTION• The City is in the process of looking for an organization to operate Murphy's Landing. Questions were asked recently about the process to be used for the selection of an operating entity. BACKGROUND: The deadline for the submission of responses to operate Murphy's Landing is January 31, 1988. Subsequent to that time the City Council will need to determine which organization submitting a RFP should be selected to operate Murphy's Landing. Recently the Community Development Director was asked several questions about the process by a representative from the Minnesota Valley Restoration Project (MVRP) . Among the questions asked were; (1) Will interviews be conducted with each of the organizations submitting an application? and (2) Will only written materials submitted in the process be used for the selection? The City Council should decide on a process at this time so that a response could be transmitted to the MVRP and other potentially interested organizations. If only written materials submitted in response to the RFP are used it is likely that the submissions will be much lengthier. Also there will not be an opportunity for Council members to ask questions and have these answered in a reasonable manner. If the questions are asked in writing and responses are given in writing, a much greater period of time will be required. ALTERNATIVES• 1. Appoint a three person City Council Committee to conduct informal interviews with all respondents and then make a recommendation to the City Council on the preferred organization to operate Murphy's Landing. - 2. Use the written submissions as the only deterrent in selecting the Murphy's Landing operating entity. RECOMMENDATION• It is recommended that alternative #1 be used. ACTION REODESTED• Appoint a City Council Committee of three persons to meet with all organizations submitting proposals to operate Murphy's Landing and to direct the staff to inform the MVRP, the Scott County Historical Society and other interested parties of this process. 102, MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Dennis R. Kraft, Community Development Director RE: Process of determining whether there is community interest in the construction of a community center or ice skating facilities in the Minnesota Valley Mall and which community groups should be involved in this process, if in fact a need is perceived to exist. DATE: January 14, 1988 INTRODUCTION• The Essex Corporation is in the process of purchasing the Minnesota Valley Mall. This developer has raised the question of whether the location of a City owned community center and/or ice skating facility is desired by the City. BACKGROUND: The City staff has been in the process of meeting with representatives of the Essex Corporation for the past two to three months on the question of the design and facilities to be located in the Minnesota Valley Mall. A presentation was made to the City Council on January 5th of the basic design scheme for the renovation of the mall. The question of whether City owned recreation facilities should be included as a part of the renovation process has also been discussed. In response to this project the City Council appointed a two person committee to work with the staff and the developer. Subsequent meetings were held with the developer and a process was formulated whereby one or more meetings would be held with representatives of various community organizations with the purpose of determining whether there is a perceived community need for such facility and if so, which activities would need to be accommodated in the facility. If the response is positive there will be a need to determine space needs for various activities and the means of financing the facility. Attached to this memo is a list of organizations to be invited which was prepared by the Community Services Director. This list represents various organizations which are presently active in the community. ALTERNATIVES• 1. Authorize the sending of a letter to persons on the attached list inviting them to a meeting to discuss this concept in greater detail on January 27, 1988 at 7:30 P.M. 2. Direct the staff not to use this process and to confine the work activities between the City Council Committee, the developer and the City staff. ff RECOMMENDATION• Alternative $1 above is recommended. ACTION REQUESTED: Move to authorize the mailing of the letter on behalf of the City Council inviting persons on the attached list to a meeting on January 27, 1988 at 7: 30 P.M. for the purpose of discussing whether a community center and/or ice skating facility is needed in the City of Shakopee and if so what activities should be accommodated at that facility. Move to authorize to sign the above- mentioned letter on behalf of the Shakopee City Council. Dear Shakopee Booster: Perhaps you have heard in the media that the corporation which is in the process of purchasing the Minnesota Valley Mall has offered to allocate space in the central part of the mall for a city-owned community recreation facility and\or an ice skating rink. Many questions need to be answered before this subject can be decided by the Shakopee City Council. The City Council is interested in receiving as much information as possible on this proposal in order to assess project viability. Other basic questions which need to be answered include. . . .Is there a need? Is there an interest? How could it be financed? How much space is needed? Your participation in this process would be appreciated. A special exploratory meeting has been scheduled for Wednesday evening, January 27, at 7:30 PM at the meeting room at Citizens State Bank. Please plan to attend, listen to what is being proposed and then provide your comments. Your R.S.V.P. to Toni Warhol at the Shakopee Community Development Department by January 22 would be appreciated; phone:445-3650. If you have other questions about the project prior to the meeting please contact the Shakopee Community Development Director, Dennis Kraft at the above number. very truly yours, 1, SUGGESTED INVITATION LIST MINNESOTA VALLEY MALL RECREATION CENTER STUDY COMMITTEE Randy Boom. . . . . . ... . ... .. . . .Youth Baseball/Softball Terry Boom. .. ..... . .. .... . .. n n n Willie Rein. . ... . ... . . . . . . . .Youth Football Dean Roper. . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . .

Anderson, City Administrator FROM: Dennis R. Kraft, Community Development Director RE: Request of Coalition of Rural Outlying Neighboring Areas (CORONA) to Complete Questionnaire and Participate in Activities of the Group. DATE: January 14, 1988 INTRODUCTION• An organization of eleven outlying suburban communities, the nucleus of which are located in Northern Anoka County, has been formed for the purpose of essentially terminating the Metropolitan Councils control of the Metropolitan sewer system connection process and of greatly limiting the Metropolitan Councils control of land use in the areas which are located in the vicinity of the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) line. BACKGROUND: CORONA has submitted the attached materials to the City Clerk and has requested that the attached questionnaire be completed and that the City consider sending a representative to the CORONA meetings. These meetings are presently held in Ham Lake on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month. The questionnaire itself could probably be processed within a period of one to two hours. In that some of the questions relate to the historical activities a very limited amount of research would have to be conducted in order to accurately complete the questionnaire. Active participation in the organization for two Thursday nights per month, plus possibly other meetings, would be appreciably more time consuming. ALTERNATIVES• 1. Do not pursue this subject further at this time. Advantages: 1. This would not consume any additional staff or City Council time, Northern Anoka County is located some distance from Shakopee and travel to and from the meetings and participation in the meetings would be time consuming. 2. In the past the City has been able to expand the MUSA line by working with the Metropolitan Council. 3. In the opinion of the Community Development Director the likelihood of success of the organization to terminate the MUSA concept is very limited. MUSA /°l control is extremely important to the Metropolitan Council and if they were to lose this their effectiveness as a planning organization would be dramatically minimized. 4. At the present time the City staff has a working relationship with the Metropolitan Council and it is positive that this working relationship should continue. Active participation in CORONA would not work towards this end. Disadvantages: 1. The MUSA process will most likely continue if no organizations attempt to change the process, even though the likelihood of change if limited. 2. Fill out the questionnaire but do not go to the CORONA meetings or participate further with the organization. Positive Aspects: 1. This would use a limited amount of staff time. 2. This would add data to the CORONA data base. Disadvantages: 1. Lack of participation would not actively facilitate CORONA's objectives. 3. Fill out the questionnaire and attend the CORONA meeting and observe their activities. Advantages: 1. This would add to the CORONA tax base and would also provide more information to the City Council on the activities of CORONA. Disadvantage: 1. Observation at meetings would consume additional amounts of staff and/or City Council members time and would compete with an already relatively full schedule. 4. Fill out questionnaire and join CORONA. Advantage: 1. This would do most to help the organization attempt to obtain their objectives. �br Disadvantages: 1. This would consume appreciable amounts of staff or City Council members time and would possibly result in expenditures by the City of Shakopee in that CORONA is contemplating forming a joint powers agreements with the various member entities and assessing for it's activities. An additional disadvantage would be that this could possibly alienate the Metropolitan Council and would still result in little likelihood of the elimination of the MUSA concept. RECONNENDATION• Alternative #1 is recommended. ACTION REOUESTED: Move to receive the information from CORONA dated December 31, 1987 and place on file. RECEP„- ilAN 0 8198 December 21 , 1987 (CITY OF SHAKOPEE Dear Ms . Cox: Thank you for taking time to review the enclosed letter and questionnaire .

(2) August 26, 1987 TO: Clerks , Managers , Administrators FROM: CORONA (Coalition of Rural Outlying Neighboring Areas) A coalition of municipalities concerned with the relationship between the Metropolitan Council and units of government wholly or partially located outside the MUSA (Metropolitan Urban Service Area) line has been organized. With a nucleus of communities in Anoka County , the group is expanding to include any municipalities in the seven-county Metropolitan jurisdictional area which have some or all of their area outside the MUSA line. The goals and objectives of CORONA are : 1. To restore control of local land use to local units of government. a. To pursue legislation which would provide effective representation on the Metropolitan Council for municipalities located within the Metropolitan Council jurisdictional area but outside the MUSA line. b. To determine a way of communicating directly with the Metropolitan Council , and to provide an effective organization for presenting the concerns of our group. Several communities in the rural outlying areas have encountered points of impasse in dealing with the Metropolitan Council and their jurisdictional powers. Such points of concern include , but are not limited to: Sewer availability/capacity Septic system compliance Accurate demographics in regard to community census Rezonings ; i.e. , lot sizes , land use (residential vs. non-residential) Designation; i. e. , general rural, free-standing An attempt is being made to form an united front by which we can approach the Legislature and/or Metropolitan Council. The following questionaire will help us focus on general areas of needs and concerns. We would deeply appreciate it if you would bring this letter and questionaire to the attention of your elected officials for their response.

Anderson, City Administrator RE: city Logo DATE: January 11, 1988 introduction The City had been working with Steve Mears who had volunteered his time to work on a City logo. It has been a year since we have had a discussion on the logo issue because Steve's time simply has not allowed him to work on the project. I spoke with Steve and we decided to try a different approach using Hennepin County Vo-Tech commercial art students. Background At a recent staff meeting one of the department heads suggested that we resolve the logo issue by seeking assistance through the Hennepin County Vo-Tech commercial art class. This can be done in one of two ways. (1) The City can wait until there is a commercial art class that is focusing on logo development which may occur later this spring. (2) The City can run a short design contest, sanctioned by the art instructor at Hennepin County Vo- Tech, with a $75.00 prize to the student with the most creative logo. The City would draft a one page flyer explaining its goals and establishing the rules for the contest. Bill Manske, art instructor at Hennepin County Vo-Tech, would then take this one page flyer and present it to his classes. Bill feels that we could get four to five students working actively on the project if we had a $75.00 prize for the most creative design. While the City would be obligated to pay the $75.00 for the most creative design, it would not be obligated to use that design if it was not acceptable to the City Council. The benefit of this approach is that it may generate some creative new ideas. The work by Steve Mears and the review by council seemed to indicate an impasse over whether or not we wanted to continue with some form of the indian head logo presently being used. With four to five students working on it perhaps there will be a creative idea that will capture everyone's imagination. Alternatives 1. Continue to work with Steve Mears when he has time available. Clearly this has not worked very successfully during the past year. 1p d 2. Provide Bill Manske, the art instructor at Hennepin County Vo-Tech, with a one page flyer creating a $75.00 contest for the creation of new logo designs. This particular approach is inexpensive and may generate far ranging ideas that might create new enthusiasm for a change in logos. 3. Direct staff to obtain cost estimates for a professional firm to work on the logo. The logo redesign is a relatively low priority for which Council may not wish to incur the higher cost of a professional commercial artist. 4. Do nothing and continue with the current logo. Recommendation I recommend alternative No. 2 for the reasons discussed above. Action Requested Direct the City Administrator to work with Bill Manske, art instructor at Hennepin County Vo-Tech, to establish a logo design contest with a $75.00 prize for the best design.

RECOMMENDATION PART II The above-entitled matter came on for hearing before Administrative Law Judge Phyllis A. Reha on November 18, 1987 at the Office of Administrative Hearings, 500 Flour Exchange Building, 310 Fourth Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The record in this matter closed on December 18, 1987. Julius A. Colter, II, Attorney at Law, 211 West First Avenue, Shakopee, Minnesota 55379, appeared on behalf of the City of Shakopee. J. Patrick Leavitt, Jr. , Attorney at Law, 525 East First Avenue, Shakopee, Minnesota 55379, appeared on behalf of the Pullman Club. This Report is a recommendation, not a final decision. The Shakopee City Council will make the final decision after a review of the record which may adopt, reject or modify the Findings of Fact, Conclusions, and Recommendations contained herein. Pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 14.61 , the final decision of the Shakopee City Council shall not be made until this Report has been made available to the parties to the proceeding for at least ten days. An opportunity must be afforded to each party adversely affected by this Report to file exceptions and present argument to the Shakopee City Council. Parties should contact Julius A. Coller, II, Attorney for the City of Shakopee, 211 West First Avenue, Shakopee, Minnesota 55379, to ascertain the procedure for filing exceptions or presenting argument. STATEMENT OF ISSUE The issue in this proceeding is to determine the appropriate penalty which should be imposed upon the Pullman Club for violations to the provisions of the Minnesota Liquor Act, Minn. Stat. § 340A.410, subd. 5, which prohibits gambling by an establishment licensed to sell alcoholic beverages. Based upon all the proceedings herein, the Administrative Law Judge makes the following: . FINDINGS OF FACT 1 . On October 30, 1987, the Administrative Law Judge issued her Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Recommendation to the Shakopee City Council recommending that the Pullman Club, Inc. (Licensee), be disciplined for violation of Minn. Stat. § 340A.410, subd. 5 which prohibits gambling by an establishment licensed to sell alcoholic beverages. 2. On November 17, 1987, the Shakopee City Council adopted the Recommendation of the Administrative Law Judge and passed a resolution that it would take disciplinary action against the liquor licenses of the Licensee but deferred consideration of the nature and extent of the penalty until after the parties could argue the penalty before the Administrative Law Judge. 3. On November 18, 1987, oral argument was had before the Administrative Law Judge as to the nature and extent of the penalty to be imposed upon the Licensee. 4. The Pullman Club, Inc. operates pursuant to on-sale and off-sale liquor licenses issued by the City of Shakopee. Daniel Colich is President of the Pullman Club and is in active control and management of this establishment. 5. On June 11 , 1987, Daniel Colich pled guilty in District Court to three criminal charges relating to the sale of pull tabs in violation of Charitable Gambling statutes. As a matter of law, he has been convicted of violations to Minn. Stat. §§ 609.76, subd. 1(1), 609.76, subd. 1(4), and 609.755(4). 6. On July 24, 1987, Daniel Colich was sentenced to two years probation and was ordered to pay $2,000.00 restitution to the Shakopee Hockey Association, to pay a fine of $500.00 plus $50.00 surcharge and to bring the pull tab operation at the establishment into conformity with state law. 7. The Shak-o-Valley Youth Hockey Association was granted a gambling license and leased the premises at the Pullman Club for charitable fundraising purposes. As part of that operation, part of the gambling proceeds were illegally set aside by the Licensee to pay for baseball uniforms. The files of the Charitable Gambling Control Board indicates the total amount of shortages in gambling funds at that premises to be $11 ,511 .00. 8. Daniel Colich as President of the Pullman Club did not personally receive any of improperly set aside funds. He has now removed all pull tab operations from his establishment. He has discharged two of his employees involved in the illegal gambling activity. Daniel Colich and the Pullman Club, Inc. have never been previously charged or convicted for violation of Charitable Gambling statutes. The City of Shakopee has not previously suspended or revoked the liquor licenses of the Licensee. 9. As a prerequisite to obtain on-sale and off-sale liquor licenses, the Licensee posted with the City two surety bonds as follows: (a) Off-sale surety bond number 58172498 issued by Western Surety Company. (b) On-sale liquor bond number 58170909 issued by Western Surety Company. 10. The violations to the Charitable Gambling statute related only to the Licensee's on-sale liquor license. 11 . The City of Shakopee will expend approximately $1 ,000.00 as a result of the instant administrative proceeding. -2- Based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact, the Administrative Law Judge /d-( makes the following: CONCLUSIONS 1 . The Shakopee City Council and the Administrative Law Judge have subject matter jurisdiction herein under Minn. Stat. §§ 340A.415 and 14.55 (1986) . 2. The City of Shakopee has complied with all relevant substantive and procedural requirements of statute and rule. 3. That the Licensee by virtue of his convictions,of the provisions of the Minnesota Criminal Code relating to gambling has violated Minn. Stat. § 340A.410, subd. 5 which prohibits gambling in a retail establishment licensed to sell alcoholic beverages. 4. That the Licensee did not explain his guilty plea or offer additional evidence in this administrative hearing. There is no evidence that the Licensee lacked knowledge of the occurrence or exercised particular care in the operation of his business. 5. As a result of the violation of statute noted at Conclusion No. 3 above, the Shakopee City Council is authorized to revoke or suspend for up to 60 days the liquor licenses issued to the Licensee, Pullman Club, Inc. , or to fine the Licensee up to $2,000.00 for each violation, pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 340A.415. 6. In determining an appropriate penalty, the Shakopee City Council is limited to the record gathered in this proceeding by the Administrative Law Judge pursuant to Minn. Stat. §§ 14.60, subd. 2, 14.62, subd. 1 (1986). Based upon the foregoing Conclusions, the Administrative Law Judge makes the following: RECOMMENDATION IT IS HEREBY RECOMMENDED that the City of Shakopee impose a civil fine on the Licensee in the amount of $1 ,000.00 or in the alternative that the liquor licenses of the Licensee be suspended for 14 calendar days. Dated: January J 1988. PHYLLIS A. REHA Y Administrative Law Judge / -3- NOTICE Pursuant to Minn. Stat. S 14.62, subd. 1 , the agency is required to serve its final decision upon each party and the Administrative Law Judge by first class mail . Reported: Taped. MEMORANDUM Under §. 340A.415, a liquor licensing authority may either suspend for up to 60 days, or revoke a liquor license or permit, upon a finding that the licensee has failed to comply with the statute, regulation or ordinance relating to alcoholic beverages. Since the Licensee has been convicted as a matter of law of violations of the Charitable Gambling statutes, the Licensee has violated Minn. Stat. § 340A.410, subd. 5 which prohibits gambling in a retail establishment licensed to sell alcoholic beverages. The City of Shakopee argues that the liquor licenses of the Licensee should be suspended for 30 calendar days and that the on-sale bond in the amount of $5,000.00 and the off-sale bond in the amount of $5,000.00 filed with the City of Shakopee be forfeited to the City. The Licensee, on the other hand, argues that such penalty is harsh under the circumstances of the case and is not consistent with disciplinary action taken against other liquor licenses for similar offenses in the State of Minnesota. As a general rule, a licensing authority may impose different penalties for similar violations of the law. Butz v. Glover Livestock Commission Company, 411 U.S. 182, 93 Sup.Ct. 455, 36 L.Ed. 2d 142 (1972) . When a penalty is challenged as arbitrary and unequal, but no evidence of proceedings against other licensees is made a part of the record, and there is nothing to show the nature of the charges made or the kind of evidence which existed with respect to the licensees, similar charges may not result in identical penalties. Colemon v. Harris, 32 Cal.Reptr. 486, 218 C.A. 2d 401 (1963). Likewise, it has been held that the conscious exercise of some selectivity and enforcement is not itself a constitutional violation. Oyler v. Boyles, 366 U.S. 488, 456 (1962) . Thus, in Moskovitz v. City of St. Paul, 218 Minn. 543, 16 N.W.2d 745, 750 (1944), the court held that an action is not discriminatory because a city failed and neglected to revoke other licenses for similar violations. The court went on to hold that official laxity in failure to revoke the licenses of other wrongdoers can furnish no legal basis for an estoppel against the city when officials do become diligent. In Oyler, it was held that a denial of equal protection occurs only if the selected enforcement was deliberately based upon an unjustifiable standard such as race, religion, or other arbitrary classification. The Licensee has presented no evidence regarding the lesser suspensions that may have been imposed upon other licensees for gambling related activity,' The proceedings against those other licensees were not made a part of the record; the evidence which existed with respect to those licensees is unknown. Absent that information, and absent a showing of improper discrimination, the mere fact that the City is proposing a more severe suspension does not establish a constitutional violation. However, since the City Council will be limited to the record gathered in this proceeding by the Administrative Law Judge, it is necessary that the -4- findings of the City regarding the appropriate sanction be supported by /bl substantial evidence in the record. It cannot be arbitrary. It must be based upon some competent evidence from which Council may determine an appropriate sanction. Sabes v. City of Minneapolis, 120 N.W.2d 871 , 875 (Minn. 1963); Miller v. City of St. Paul, 363 N.W.2d 806, 812 (Minn.Ct.App. 1985) . Here, there is simply no justification for the City to require the Licensee to forfeit both the on-sale and off-sale bonds filed with the City. The illegal activity related only to the on-sale license. Also, the statute relating to license revocation or suspension does not permit the City to impose both a suspension and a civil fine. Forfeiture of the bonds filed with the City is tantamount to the imposition of a civil fine. The statute does not permit a fine to be assessed in excess of $2,000.00. Clearly, forfeiture of even one $5,000.00 bond exceeds the statutory authority contained in Minn. Stat. § 340A.415. Appropriate considerations in determining the penalty include relevant evidence in the proceeding of knowledge or intent. Sabes v. City of Minneapolis, supra at 874-875. Miller v. City of St. Paul, 363 N.W.2d 806 (Minn.Ct.App. 1985). Knowledge or willfulness is also an element to be considered in determining the appropriate sanction, if a viola ion is found to exist. Warsett v. City of Crystal, 246 N.W.2d 182 (Minn. 1976) . In this case, no evidence was submitted relating to the Licensee's knowledge of the occurrence or his intent. The guilty plea is evidence by way of an admission (C or statement against interest but it will not be given conclusive effect. The Licensee may explain the guilty plea or offer additional evidence. Glen Falls Group Insurance Corporation v. Hoium, 200 N.W.2d 189 (Minn. 1972); Kvanli v. Village of Watson, 139 N.W.2d 275, 279 (Minn. 1965). Here, however, there was no testimony or evidence which would rebut the admission or statement against interest of a guilty plea. Nor did the Licensee explain the guilty plea or offer additional evidence. Consequently, it may be presumed that the Licensee had the requisite knowledge and intent to violate the Charitable Gambling laws. Therefore, on the basis of the record, a significant penalty is appropriate. However, the Licensee's illegal activities are mitigated as a result of other factors contained in the hearing record. The Licensee did not personally profit from the illegal gaming activities at the Pullman Club. In addition, this was the first violation of any kind. These factors should be given significant weight in determining the appropriate sanction. It is appropriate for the Administrative Law Judge to recommend a sanction to the City in this license revocat on procee ing, a vio a ion is ou73— when requested to do so by the Minn. 313T. § 14.50 (1986) ; Frier v. Independent School District No. 197, 356 N.W.2d 724, 732, f.n. 1 (Minn.Ct.App. 1984); Schmidt v. Independent School District No. 1 , 349 N.W.2d 563, 569 (Minn.Ct.App. 1984) . Tt is the r omnendatior of the Administrative Law Judge that a 14-day suspension would be the most appropriate penalty for thg Licensee. Such.a suspension would impress upon the Licensee the importance of maintaining and exercising care in the operation of the business and to insure that the business is operated in conformance with appropriate laws relating to licensed establishments. The Administrative Law Judge believes that a suspension is more appropriate than a fine because the Licensee has already paid a significant monetary penalty as a result of his criminal conviction to the gaming statutes. However, the Administrative Law Judge also recognizes that the City of Shakopee has expended a significant amount of the taxpayers' money in the prosecution of this matter. It is estimated that the cost of -5- this administrative proceeding will exceed $1 ,000.00. On that basis, the Administrative Law Judge has recommended an alternative monetary penalty not to exceed $1 ,000.00. However, the language of Minn. Stat. § 340A.415 is quite clear that the City of Shakopee may not both suspend and impose a civil fine. The City must make a choice between the two disciplinary options. P.A.R. -6- Memo To: John Anderson, City Administrator /D� From George Muenchow, Community Recreation Director Subject: O'Dowd Lake Park Master Plan Adoption Date . January 20, 1988 Background O'Dowd Lake is a gorgeous jewel located in the southern extremity of the City Of �Sharcopee. a[uzeaman and sundrya years there has been interest in t p ys, points, islands etc. Throughout the a Ire instituted - as 1979, All of these major thrusts in past a park on these shores. Major efforts toward developingpwere deemed tm ambitious years including irecent andthedecisionwas made to limit the size of this City Park to its current size. Acquisition of the current park area was accomplished partly with federal and state funds. The primary intent at that time was acquire open space before developers had set in. Park development was not a high priority,. because park areas in Shakopee's urban area deserved attention first. Problems During the course of the past 10 years there have been personnel changes in the Minnesota State Department Of Planning, the agency that cleared the federal and state funds used in this park land acquisition. There likewise have been a number of changes in Shakopee City Hall during this time. As a result no one really was pushing the preparation of a Master Plan for this park. The current person serving as a Grants Analyst for the State Of Minnesota has this past week informed the City Of Shakopee that it is deficient in the approving of such a Plan, and furthermore has provided us with a deadline date of January 31 to provide the same. A brief outline of intended development for this City Park is attached to this memo. Action Needed Authorize the approval of the recommended Master Plan for the development of O'Dowd Lake Park. Alternatives a. Approve plan as recommended, and, therefore fulfill the time line requirements of the State Of Minnesota Planning Grants Agency. b. Delay approval of this plan and face possible loss of this park land together with the possible court action instituted against the City. Recommendation Move to authorize the adoption of a Park Master Plan for O'Dowd Lake Park as Presented by staff. I O'DOWD LAKE PARK A SHAKOPEE COMMUNITY PARK Background This gorgeous property located in the northwestern corner of Lake O'Dowd was acquired in small parcels during the years of 1977-1980. The park consists of 15 acres of basically wooded terrain. The proposed active area is centered on a peninsula well situated for picknicking and fishing._.A-ehallow bay mostly separates a planned hilly, passive area that--will include a trail for hikers. In 1986 the U.S. Department Of Interior transferred to the City Of Shakopee the ownership of five small islands that are in close proximity to the park. Since that time, these islands, which total 6.4 acres, have been included as a part of this park. In 1987 a private golf course began development immediately north and adjacent to this park. The developers agreement included the construction of public hiking trails through the course connecting with planned trails in the park. Planned development 1.

As I mentioned, any site acquired with federal and/or state funding for outdoor recreation purposes, is required to be developed within three years of the completed acquisition. In addition, Gretchen Blank who was at the time the Director of the outdoor Recreation Grant Section, wrote Mr. Douglas Wise, City Planner, City of Shakopee, in a letter dated July 10, 1987, stating that 'At a minimum, the City must submit a City Council approved master plan for the development of this park to this office no later than January 31 , 1988 for our approval. Development must begin in the 1988 construction season.' Having not heard anything from the City to the contrary, I assume I will be seeing a plan from the City for the development of O'Dowd Lake Park before the month is out. Failure to comply with federal and state regulations can result in costly and time consuming litigation and jeopardizes the chances of the City receiving future grants. As I stated over the phone, I strongly encourage the City to apply for a FY'89 Outdoor Recreation Grant for the development of O'Dowd Lake Park and would be happy to meet with the City to review any development plans and offer my suggestions for submitting a competitive application.

BACKGROUND: Attached is an October 17 , 1986 memo from John Anderson addressing Change Order No. 1 to the contract with Barton-Aschman Associates . This Change Order was approved by Council. Also attached is a December 3, 1987 correspondence from Barton-Aschman itemizing work completed that was not in the project scope of their contract. I concur with the extensiveness and degree of work completed relative to the proposed scope of work in their contract. As the project evolved, additional work was necessary to assure that all alternatives and associated amenities were properly addressed. To protect the interests of the City, this extra work became more important since there is a cap on the City contribution to the project and it is expected that Mn/DOT will contract and inspect the actual construction. The proposed amount of Change Order No. 2 is $8,490.00. Alternatives: 1 . Approve Change Order No. 2. 2. Approve a lesser amount that is arbitrary. 3. Do not approve Change Order No. 2.
