money from other sources.

Councilmember Williams stated he felt the members should come up with additional funds. If the city
were to donate these funds, he questioned where would the monies come from since this was not an item

Authorize Capital Equipment Replacement: Unit #309 Graco Linelazer III Line Striper
Councilmember Nawrocki stated he went to the Public Works garage to view this piece of equipment and
talk with the public works personnel. He does not feel this piece of equipment needs to be replaced at this
time; perhaps another year of service could be gotten out of it.
Councilmember Williams stated that according to the council letter, the unit is worth $700 now and we
should dispose of it now. He also stated that all pieces of equipment mn their life of usefulness, and they
should be disposed of before they are worth nothing.
Motion by Councilmember Williams, seconded by Councilmember Szurek, to authorize the Capital
Equipment Replacement of Unit #309 with one new Graco Linelazer III 5900, model 232662, 2 gun
system complete from Diamond Vogel Paints, Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the amount of $4,984 plus

equipment being disposed of via public auction as soon as possible. Roll call vote: Ayes: Szurek,
Williams, Wyckoff, Peterson. Nays: Nawrocki.
Adopt Resolution No. 2002-49, being a Resolution approving a lot split of the property_ at 325 Summit
Street NE:
The council is to consider a request for a lot split at 325 Summit Street N.E. The City is proposing to
split off a portion of the property it owns, which will be used for a future street and alley reconfiguration.
Councilmembers had various questions about the properties the city now owns in this area (3944 and
3950 Lookout Place, 3955 University Avenue, and 325 Summit Street). The City is also currently
negotiating to purchase the commercial business at 322 40th Avenue N.E., thereby creating a more usable,
larger, and functional property. A future vacation of a portion of Lookout Place would create a safer
intersection and open up a future redevelopment oppommity for the 40th and University Avenue corridor.
The intent is to vacate a portion of Lookout Place and reconfigure the east-west alley that currently has
access to Lookout Place. The lot split and street and alley reconfiguration will allow for a City-owned
redevelopment parcel of approximately one acre in size.
Staff recommends approval of the lot split at 325 Summit Street, as it meets the technical standards of the
Zoning Ordinance, and is consistent with the City Comprehensive Plan.
Tim Johnson, Planner, stated that approximately thirty property owners were sent notices regarding this
property. Councilmember Nawrocki questioned the loading and unloading situation with the property
owner at 334 40th' Tim Johnson stated that the property owner at that address is happy with the
information the city provided to him. Councilmember Nawrocki stated that the city has not had a meeting
with all the people living along that area, and questioned why this lot split should be done now. He felt
those residents should have an opportunity to provide comments, ask questions, etc. before this lot split is
done. Councilmember Williams stated the city has bought three lots, and now this one to complete the
development of that comer.
Gen Kuppe, 5000 Johnson Street, questioned why the city would buy the property before having a plan
for it. The Mayor explained that we bought the property and already own the triangular parcel next to it.
We needed this property for our redevelopment project on 40th and University.

Consideration of Appointment to the Police/Fire Civil Service Commission
The addition to the agenda regarding an appointment to the Police/Fire Civil Service Commission was
taken up at this time.
Motion by Councilmember Williams, seconded by Councilmember Szurek, to appoint Mitch DeMars to
the Police/Fire Civil Service Commission. Motion passed unanimously. The Mayor asked the Secretary
Pro Tern to contact Mr. DeMars about the appointment.
Authorization to Reinstate Parking on the North side of 37th Avenue from Tyler Street to Hart Boulevard
Staff has received a petition signed by fronting property owners on 37th requesting the reinstatement of
parking on the north side of 37th from Tyler Street to Hart Boulevard. The Traffic Commission held a
public hearing in October of 1999 and recommended to the City Council to reinstate parking on the north
side. The Council considered the request and recommendation in the fall of 1999 and voted to retain the
parking restriction. The City of Minneapolis reinstated parking on the south side of 37th Avenue in 1997-
1998.
City Manager, Walt Fehst, stated there are no parking restrictions from November 1-April 1.
Councilmember Szurek stated she is against reinstating parking on the north side of 37th Avenue from
Tyler Street to Hart Boulevard. The Mayor felt there could be a mowing problem. Councilmember
Nawrocki directed a question about parking on Central Avenue/37th to the Public Works Director, as this
was previously discussed at a work session. Councilmember Nawrocki thought a letter should go out to
residents about night-time and restricted time parking. He also felt a speed study should be done now and
then again in three months.
MOTION by Councilmember Williams, seconded by Councilmember Nawrocki, to accept the petition
from the abutti,nt~ property owners along 37th Avenue requesting the removal of the No Parking
Restriction on 37 Avenue from Tyler Street to Hart Boulevard. Motion passed unanimously.
MOTION by Councilmember Williams, seconded by Councilmember Wyckoff to reinstate parking on the
north side of 37th Avenue from Tyler Street to Hart Boulevard on a one (1) year interim basis, based on
the petition received and a former recommendation (1999) of the Traffic Commission. Roll call vote:
Ayes: Nawrocki, Williams, Wyckoff, Peterson. Nays: Szurek.
Table or Accept Proposal from BRA for the Huset Park Master Plan
The Park and Recreation Commission directed staff to prepare a Request for Proposals at their July, 2001,
regular meeting. Requests for proposals were sent to eight firms, and only three met the requirements
stated in the RFP (Bonestroo, Short, Elliot, and Hendrickson, and URS). The Park and Recreation
City Council Minutes
August 12, 2002
Page 10 of 14
Commission and staff are recommending the firm of Bonestroo, Rosene, and Anderlike (BRA) to
complete the Huset Park master plan.
The intent of a master plan for Huset Park is to provide a detailed plan of the entire park to work from.
With financial constraints, complete redevelopment of the park is unlikely. Therefore, it is the desire of
the Park and Recreation Commission and city staff to have a detailed working plan to rehabilitate or
rebuild elements of the park in phases, as funding becomes available.
Because the city is having an industrial area market study being done at this time, it is recommended that
the city wait for at least two months before considering bids for the Huset Park master plan.
Councilmember Nawrocki stated that he was opposed to any study; that in the 1990's, a study was done
and the comprehensive plan was done. He further stated that the city council did not authorize bids for
proposals.
MOTION by Councilmember Wyckoff, seconded by Councilmember Szurek, to table the acceptance of
proposals for a period of 60-90 days until additional information is available for the City of Columbia
Heights' Industrial Area market study. Motion passed unanimously.
Approve Ballot Language for three Charter Commission Referendum Items for the Fall, 2002 General
Election
The City Attorney, Jim Hoefi, had prepared the ballot language for the referendum items for the fall
general election, which read as follows:
Ballot Question #1: "Under the current City Charter, the Police Department is under the control of
the Mayor. Shall the Home Rule Charter of the City of Columbia Heights be amended to place control of
the Police Department under the City Manager?"
Ballot Question #2: "When considering a new or amended ordinance, shall the Home Rule
Charter of the City of Columbia Heights be amended to require a four-fifths (4/5) rather than an
unanimous vote of the City Council to waive the public reading of the ordinance, provide all other
requirements of the Charter are met?"
Ballot Question #3: "Currently the City Manager must seek authorization from the City Council
before spending more than $3,000. Rather than requiring a Charter amendment any time the City
Manager's authorized spending limit is adjusted, shall the Home Rule Charter of Columbia Heights be
amended to authorize the City Council to adjust the City Manager's spending limit by resolution?"
Councilmember Wyckoff stated she did not think that the ballot language for the second item, "Reading
of Ordinances" was clear enough and needed further clarification. She stated that actually two
councilmembers would have to request a reading of an ordinance.
Tami Ericson, President of the Charter Commission, was present and spoke. She stated the Charter
Commission wants the language to appear as clearly as possible. She stated all commission members
have received the ballot language, and she has received no comments/objections to the ballot language as
proposed by the City Attorney. However, she had no objections to making the language clearer.
Resident Deb Johnson, 4638 Pierce Street, felt that it should state that at least two people must request the
reading of an ordinance. The City Attorney agreed that, in essence, two members of the council would
have to agree to request a reading.
City Council Minutes
August 12, 2002
Page 11 of 14
Councilmember Nawrocki stated that his belief is the current language has served well for years; if it's
not broke, why fix it? He also stated that the City Attorney did a good job of preparing the ballot
language. He also reminded the City Attorney that the exact wording of the proposed amendments must
be published.
Resident Bob Buboltz, 4311 5th Street, stated that perhaps fractions should not be used, as maybe not all
councilmembers will be present. The City Attorney stated that the fraction wording is set by statute.
Mayor Peterson stated that the Charter Commission is appointed by the Chief Judge, not the council.
MOTION by Councilmember Szurek, seconded by Councilmember Williams, to approve the ballot
language for the three referendum charter issues as prepared by the City Attorney (stated above) with the
addition to the second ballot question regarding reading of ordinances should have a statement added to
the end of it, which will state: "The practical effect of this amendment would mean that two
councilmembers, rather than one, would have to agree to require an ordinance be read." Motion passed
unanimously.
At this time, Councilmember Nawrocki brought up the proposed informational flyer, which the Charter
Commission is planning to send out in all water bills starting this week. Councilmembers had all received
copies of the proposed informational flyer which stated the proposed ballot language for each item, as
well as some pros and cons of each issue. Councilmember Nawrocki stated that the Charter Commission
has not officially approved this informational flyer at a formal meeting. Councilmember Nawrocki stated
that he knows that staff has already mn off these flyers, folded them, and stuffed them in the outgoing
water bills, which he felt was done prematurely. With the motion just passed making an additional
statement in the ballot language, he realizes that staff will now have to redo the information sheet going
out in the water bills. He also stated he feels that that the flyer should only contain the ballot language
and no pros or cons to the issues. Councilmember Nawrocki also stated that he thinks an actual separate
mailing should be done, as well as information should be placed on cable TV and in local papers too.
Mayor Peterson stated that the Charter Commission has brought these three issues to the council
previously, and the council did not pass them unanimously. Therefore, the Charter Commission decided
they wanted these issues put on the ballot this fall. He also stated that the Charter Commission wants to
inform the public as much as possible on these issues, and pros and cons to each issue should be stated.
How they wish to educate the public is up to them.
Charter Commission President Ericson again stated that the commission wants to have voters make an
informed decision. The pros and cons provided were to eliminate opinions and provide information. She
stated the Charter Commission members have all received this wording as well. Councilmember
Nawrocki stated the commission did not approve the wording on the water bill informational flyer at a
formal meeting. He also stated the Charter Commission does not have the authority to put this document
in the water bills to inform the public, and he does not agree with the wording or pros and cons stated. He
again reiterated that only the ballot language should go out with the water bills, and not the pros and cons
of each issue.
Councilmembers Williams and Szurek stated that they wanted all the information, including pros and
cons, to go out in the water bills. Motion by Councilmember Williams, seconded by Councilmember
Szurek, to send out the informational flyer on the charter amendments as presented to them, with the
additional statement to ballot question #2 as approved above. Roll call vote: Ayes: Szurek, Williams,
Wyckoff, Peterson. Nays: Nawrocki.

Purchase of property on Universi _ty Avenue and 53rd Street for a Liquor Store
At the present time, staff is recommending that the City Council authorize the Mayor and City Manager to
enter into a contingency purchase agreement with the owners of the property on 53rd and University gas
station, and the Laundromat immediately to the south of the gas station. The purchase agreement has
contingencies: the purchase of each property is contingent upon the purchase of the other property; and
that the buyer has the opportunity to evaluate all leases, relocation costs, and other financial information
necessary to conclude the project. These contingencies are similar to the contingencies placed on the
purchase agreement for the Central Avenue property.
The Mayor commented on the fine new building that Bona Brothers constructed along University near
694. He would like to see more of the same along University Avenue entering Columbia Heights.
Councilmember Williams stated that he visited the liquor store on University Avenue, which was built in
1964, and felt the building has definitely served its useful life, is in need of structural repair, and is too
small. Councilmember Nawrocki stated he didn't feel that this issue was a high priority for him, but
thought it would be good to have a different store on Central Avenue. Councilmember Wyckoff stated
she is ashamed of the liquor store on University and would like to see us pursue a different location for
that store.
MOTION by Councilmember Szurek, seconded by Councilmember Williams, to authorize the Mayor and
City Manager to enter into contingent purchase agreements for the two properties on 53rd and University
for the future construction of a new liquor store. Roll call vote: Ayes: Szurek, Williams, Wyckoff,
Peterson. Nays: Nawrocki.
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS
Report of the City Manager
The City Manager reported that there were only a couple of items for the upcoming work session for
Monday, August 19th. He did not feel that any further information on the liquor store issue would be
available by then for further discussion. Motion by Councilmember Williams, seconded by
Councilmember Szurek, to cancel the work session meeting of August 19, 2002. Motion passed
unanimously.
Report of the City Attorney - Nothing else to report.

Mark Emme, of 4200 3ra Street, stated he lives in a condominium unit and he (along with several hundred
other people) would not receive the informational flyer being sent in the water bills. Councilmember
Nawrocki stated he had a conversation with the Finance Director about this. The Finance Director stated
that his depamnent could receive assistance from the county and from our Fire Department to get
names/addresses of renters to mail the informational flyer out to.

Mr. Emme also stated that he applied to be on the Park and Recreation Commission about four months

opening now, but they may have openings on that commission again.
Delores Strand, 1145 Polk Place, reported on her Sister Cities global conference held in Toledo, Ohio, a
few weeks ago. Delores stated she was the only Columbia Heights resident there. Delores also reported

AGENDA SECTION: ORIGINATING DEPT: CITY MANAGER
NO: ~- ~-~. FINANCE APPROVAL
BY:
ITEM: PRESENTATION OF 2003 PROPOSEDciTY BUDGET BY: WIJrI~IAM ELRITE
NO: DATE: 08/22/2002
Attached to this council letter is a summary of the proposed budget for 2003 along with
recommendations for a property tax levy. Under current state mandated Truth in Taxation
guidelines, the City must adopt a proposed budget and levy and certify it to Anoka County prior
to September 15th. It should be noted that this is only a proposed levy. After the proposed levy
is adopted, at any future date prior to the final levy adoption in December, the proposed levy can
be reduced. However, it cannot be increased. Subsequently, as in past years, staff is
recommending that we adopt the maximum levy allowed under levy limits as the proposed levy.
The attached document is a summary budget to begin the budget review process. At the work
session of September 3rd, staff will hand out additional information and go into greater depth
regarding levy limits and funding for the City budget for 2003.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to schedule September 3rd as a work session to review the
summary proposed budget and proposed tax levy for 2002.

COUNCIL ACTION:
City of Columbia Heights
2003 Budget Message
Summary Budget
This budget message is only intended to touch on the most significant budget items for
2003. Through the budget process the City Council will meet with division heads to
review the various functional areas of the budget and to make important decisions for the
final budget to be presented at our "Truth in Taxation Hearing".
For 2003 Division Heads were instructed to prepare a hold-the-line budget. This was
accomplished very successfully. The attached summary budget reflects a total General
Fund budget of $8,912,953 for 2003 compared to $8,279,743 for 2002. This is an
increase of $633,210, which is primarily due to personnel cost for employees moving
through the pay plan and to cover the 3.5% pay increase that the City Council approved
for 2003. The second largest cost factor is for capital equipment, which was cut from the
2002 budget. This cut is not being added back, but we are proposing that the equipment
needed in the 2003 budget not be cut. Of this increase, the most significant portion is in
the area of public safety, which increased by $404,724. This is broken down to an
increase of $280,238 for the police department, $73,349 for the fire department and
$51,137 for the civil defense department. It should be noted that the three police officer
positions that were added by a temporary Federal grant in the mid 1990's are still being
maintained. This keeps the police department at 25 sworn officers, which is three higher
than it was before the temporary Federal grants. The significant increase in the Civil
Defense budget is to replace the 1960's vintage generator that maintains power to the
public safety departments of City Hall in an emergency or disaster situation. The current
1960's vintage generator is no longer safe to operate and the replacement has been cut
from the budget for several years. The attached summary pages reflect the proposed 2003
budget with comparisons to the 2002 budget and the two previous years actual expenses.
On the revenue side, the proposed levy is $4,817,984. This is a decrease of $6,146 from
the 2002 levy. Based on this and the current projection that the city will not receive a
decrease in the fiscal disparities (area wide) tax, our residents should see an overall
reduction in city property taxes The gloomy side of the revenue picture is that we have
received a slight increase in Local Government Aid for the 2003 budget, which is subject
to be reduced by the state in an effort to offset the state budget shortfall. It is staff's
recommendation that we utilize fund the balance to offset any one-time reductions to
state aid. This and the revenue picture in other funds will need to be reviewed in more
depth as part of the budget adoption process.

ri'EM: Authorize Joint Powers Agreement with Anoka BY: Thomas M. Johnson~ BY:
NO. County for development of new Public Safety DATE August 21, 2002 c~.~v ¥ DATE
Communications System
BACKGROUND
The current radio system, which is used to dispatch police and fire services in the Anoka County area,
was built in 1974. This is an analog system, which at times becomes a safety issue for both police
and firefighters. At times, communication dead spots occur in our city. This especially is the case
when officers or firefighters are using handheld portable radios. The system also does not allow
police to talk to fire or for police or fire to readily talk to other agencies coming to assist us in an
emergency.
The State of Minnesota has built a backbone of towers for a new 800 Mghz radio system. The State
patrol, Carver County, and some agencies in Hennepin County have moved to this new 8000 Mghz
system.
In an effort to pay for this system infrastructure and new radios for police and fire, Anoka County has
obtained bonding approval from the State Legislature for 12.5 million dollars. The process on how to
use this money has been reviewed and approved by the Anoka County Joint Law Enforcement
Council, the Anoka County Commissioners, and the Anoka County Fire Protection Council.
ANALYSIS/CONCLUSION
County Attorney Bob Johnson will appear before the City Council on August 26, 2002, to present a
Joint Powers Agreement reference the Anoka County Communications project. The Chief of Police
as a voting member of the Joint Law Enforcement Council, and the Fire Chief as a voting member of
the Anoka County Fire Protection Council, would encourage the Council to pass the attached motion
in favor of the Public Safety Communications Joint Powers Agreement.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to approve the Joint
Powers Agreement with Anoka County for the development ora new Public Safety Communication
system.

Linwood, Oak Grove, Ramsey, St. Francis, and Spring Lake Park (each a "City" and
collectively, the "Cities").
WHEREAS, the County and the Cities have previously recognized the need to
cooperate in their law enforcement efforts, and have created the Anoka County Joint Law
Enforcement Council (the "JLEC") for this purpose; and
WHEREAS, the f~re departments that serve Anoka County have created the Anoka
County Fire Protection Council (FPC); and
WHEREAS, the JLEC, the County and the Cities have determined that there is a need
to communicate among ftre departments and law enforcement agencies, to improve the speed
and accuracy of fire and law enforcement information requested from another jurisdiction,
and to work cooperatively in an effort to improve fire protection and law enforcement and
thereby public safety in Anoka County; and
-1-
WHEREAS, the Cities, through the JLEC, and the County have determined that
public safety communication would be improved by the development of a new public safety
communications system; and
WHEREAS, as a result of County efforts, the legislature passed legislation permitting
the County to levy a separate tax on behalf of all governmental units in the County for this
improved public safety communications system; and
WHEREAS, it is important for these governmental units to understand the undertaking
of the County and to provide for a continuation of the system.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and
in exercise of the power granted by Minn. Stat. §471.591, the parties to this Agreement do
mutually agree as follows:
1. PURPOSE
The parties agree that they have joined together for the purpose of planning,
implementing and maintaining a public safety communications system in the County of
Anoka and to supplement a 1999 joint powers agreement.
2. TERM
This Agreement shall be effective September 1, 2002, and continue until any party
terminates, with or without cause, upon thirty days' written notice. The termination by any
party shall not affect the validity of the Agreement as to the remaining parties.
-2-
3. PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION
The County shall work with the JLEC to plan and construct a public safety
communications system in Anoka County using the special law enacted on behalf of Anoka
County to finance the system.
4. CONTRACTS AND PURCHASES
All contracts and purchases made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made by the
County and shall conform to the requirements applicable to the County.
5. FUNDING LIMITATION
It is understood by the parties that by this undertaking the County may bond up to
12.5 million dollars to obtain funds to plan and construct the public safety communications
system. Any funds received from sources other than a tax levy will be applied to reduce the
amount of bonds or notes necessary to repay bonds and will not act to increase the total
expenditure.
6. DISTRIBUTION OF RADIOS
It is the intent of the parties to make a one-time distribution of radios to all fire
departments and law enforcement agencies in the County. The radios will be purchased from
the remaining funds available in the 12.5 million dollars after constructing the infrastructure
of the system. The radios will be distributed as provided in Exhibit A, which is attached.
It is understood by the parties that the Cities and their individual fire departments and law
enforcement agencies are responsible for Metropolitan Radio Board user fees and acquisition
and replacement of radios after this one-time provision of radios under this Agreement.
-3-
7. USE OF SHOP SPARES
The parties agree that radios purchased as shop spares, as shown on Exhibit A, will
be maintained by Anoka County Central Communications for the benefit of the parties
hereto. These radios will be made available to the police and ftre departments to substitute
for a radio that is being repaired. Additionally, the radios will be available to police and fire
departments for public safety situations such as disasters or large gatherings of people that
need to be managed. The radios may be used for not longer than the time of repair or
incident and, in any case, not longer than three months. There shall be no expense to the
police and fire departments for this use provided, however, that the departments shall be
responsible for any loss or damage to the shop spares radios they are using.
8. JOINT CONTRIBUTION AND ACQUISITION
The parties agree that, acting through the JLEC, they may voluntarily contribute to
a fund maintained by the County for purchase of public safety communication equipment
or other law enforcement purpose. The County agrees to credit any interest earned and
maintain the fund to be expended at the direction of the JLEC for the benefit of the
contributing party. Contribution by a City may not be expended if a representative of that
City appointed to the JLEC votes in the negative on a motion to expend such fimds.
9. ACQUISITION OF PUBLIC SAFETY COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT
The parties agree that it is important for the public safety communication system to
operate as effectively as possible and that the acquisition and use of common equipment is
important to that goal. In furtherance of that goal, the parties agree that they will acquire
-4-
communication equipment through the Director of Central Communications in Anoka
County. The County agrees that it will acquire such communication equipment at the lowest
possible price and will not charge the party ordering the equipment any amount in excess of
that necessary to its acquisition and delivery. The County further agrees that it will consider
the recommendations of the JLEC and the FPC in determining whether the provision of the
radios is by purchase or lease and whether the County will finance the acquisition costs. The
parties agree that the County will act to preserve the ability of Cities to treat payments as
debt service in order to maintain the ability to acquire public safety communication
equipment outside any levy limit.
10. CENTRAL RECORDS PROJECT JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT

County' s General Obligation Capital Notes, Series 1999A (the "Series 1999A Notes"), in the
original aggregate principal amount of $1,230,000, issued on January 6, 1999. The Series
1999A Notes were issued by the County pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Anoka
County Board of Commissioners on December 15, 1998. The Series 1999A Notes were
issued to benefit joint law enforcement efforts of the County and multiple municipalities
located with the County (the "Cities") through the coordination of criminal justice records
systems of the County and the Cities to more efficiently store and access law enforcement
information requested by the Cities and the County (the "Project").
In December 1998, the County and the Cities, pursuant to a Joint Powers Agreement
under Anoka County Contract No. 990021 (the "1999 Joint Powers Agreement") provided
-5-
for the cooperation and respective duties of the County and the Cities in funding and
maintaining the Project. The 1999 Joint Powers Agreement also dealt with specific costs
associated with performing parts of the Project. The JLEC is hereby directed to use the
unexpended proceeds of the Series 1999A Notes in a manner consistent with the general
goals of the Project. The unexpended proceeds of the Series 1999A Notes may be expended,
consistently with Minnesota Statutes, Section 373.01, subdivision 3, as amended, at the
direction of the JLEC, in consultation with bond counsel for the County, so as to not affect
the tax-exempt status of the Series 1999A Notes.
11. DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS AND PROPERTY
All funds disbursed by any party pursuant to this Agreement shall be disbursed
pursuant to the method provided by law for counties and the Division Manager of Anoka
County Finance & Central Services shall be the fiscal agent. Upon termination, all
infrastructure shall be the property of the County and all radios shall be the property of the
governmental units receiving the radios. Any funds held by the County as the result of
contributions under Paragraph 8 shall be returned to the party contributing the funds.

Bonestroo Rosene Anderlik & Associates being the most qualified. Overall, Huset Park
has storm problems and Bonestroo is willing to integrate storm water solutions within the
overall comprehensive plan. Commission Chairperson, Eileen Evans, asked how much
money is left over from the sale of parkland to Medtronic and the purchase of land where
the railroad tracks are. Public Works Director/City Engineer, Kevin Hansen, stated that
of the initial $320,000 to $340,000, there is approximately $180,000 to $190,000
remaining. Motion by Bill Peterson, second by Foss to have City Council proceed
forward this year by proposing Bonestroo for the RFP. All ayes, motion carried.
REVIEW ST. TIMOTHY'S DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
Public Works Director/City Engineer, Kevin Hansen, reviewed with the Commission the
25-unit Townhome Development that will be built on a 2.43 acres adjacent to Sullivan
Lake Park and St. Timothy's Lutheran Church noting Park Dedication fees and a new
trail connection. $750.00 per unit, approximately $19,000, will be going back to the
parks stipulated towards Sullivan Lake Park only. Townhome Builder, Bruce Nedegaard,
questioned if the monies going back into the park could be used for an aeration system of
PAGE THREE
Sullivan Lake. Public Works Director/City Engineer, Kevin Hansen, stated that Sullivan
Lake functions as a storm water pond and would not be a good candidate for an aeration
system. Another park related issue pertains to a bridge request to connect a trail that will
surround the townhome project to the existing trail that surrounds Sullivan Lake.
REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL SIGNAGE AT SULLIVAN LAKE PARK
Kathy Hofstedt, a Columbia Heights resident residing at 701-50 ~A Ave. NE, stated to the
commission her reasons for requesting more signage at Sullivan Lake. She would like to
see signage to designate bike/walking trails and for picking up after animals. Public
Works Director/City Engineer, Kevin Hansen, reported to the Commission that Public
Works has received two requests for signage to be put up at Sullivan Lake Park. The
requests are to differentiate between the walking and bike trails and to pick up dog feces.
In 1998, signage was taken down because it was ineffective and to took away from the
park. Commission Members stated that if signs were put up.to pick up after your dog, it
would promote false expectations because of the potential for tickets that would not be
enforced. It has been questioned if the entire trail around the lake could be widened to
accommodate for both biking and walking but MN/Dot requires that a combination trail
would need to be 10' in width and certain sections of Sullivan Lake would not allow for
such width. Motion by Greenhalgh, second by B. Peterson to put up 4 "No Bike" signs in
Sullivan Lake Park. All ayes, motion carried.
NEI COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY LEASE AGREEMENT
Recreation Director, Keith Windschitl, reviewed the attached proposed lease agreement
for the use of the gymnasium at NEI College of Technology. NEI stated that the small
gym is in poor shape and is not fit to be used for any activities due to safety and liability
concerns. NEI is also requiting us to staff the building and to monitor the entrance due to
some past problems. Commission Member, Jerry Foss, asked how much are we paying
to upkeep the floor. Recreation Director, Keith Windschitl, stated that we work with the
school district to defer costs. In the last year we have replaced some wood floorboards
and we put a new backboard up.

than paying the loan off because it is a TIF project and when the City took it out we were unclear
of the TIF tax revenue we would be receiving. At the present time, it is anticipated the TIF
revenue may payoff the full loan. By having the revenue it provides a backup incase we would

the project. The entire reserve will be available in the future for use at the discretion of the
Board.

REQUEST TO RESTRICT PARKING ON THE EAST SIDE OF 4TM STREET
ACROSS FROM 4220 AND 4226 4TM STREET
Jean Kuehn, Special Projects Coordinator, explained the problems that the trucks
are having when entering and exiting 4220 and 4226 4th Street. BFI has requested
"No Parking" be designated on the east side of 4th Street across from the
driveways for 4220 and 4226 4th Street. The trucks are unable to turn into these
driveways to service the apartment buildings when vehicles are parked across
from the driveways. BFI has requested the restriction be about 20' on each side
of the driveway.

It was suggested that the Police Dept. determine who owns the parked vehicles
across from the driveways. Other options were discussed such as approaching the
apartment building owners with the possibility of widening the driveway curb cut.
Staffwas asked to determine the costs of widening the existing driveway
entrances. Commissioner Carlson felt that no parking from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. was
too long and suggested that BFI be contacted to determine the best length of time
to restrict parking.
Staff recommended calling a public hearing to restrict parking on the east side on
4th Street for the day of the week that BFI has pick-ups to determine if the
residents/owners object to the parking restriction.
Motion by Goodman, second by Stumpf, to call a Public Hearing for September 4,
2002, to designate "No Parking on Wednesday from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on
the east side of 4th Street from 20' south of the driveway at 4220 4th Street to 20'
north of driveway at 4226 4th Street and on the west side of 4th Street from 10'

CONSENT AGENDA
Approval of Minutes
Approve the Minutes of Regular Meeting of July 16, 2002.
MOTION by Nawrocki, second by Williams, to approve the minutes from Julyl6, 2002, regular
meeting as presented in writing. All ayes. Motion Carried.
ITEMS FOR CONSIDERATION
PROPOSAL FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES-PARKVIEW VILLA ROOF PROJECTS
Nagel stated the HRA has until September 30, 2002 to spend the remaining 2000 Annual Plan
funds. Last month the HRA Board approved years 1-5 of a 20-year Capital Improvements Plan
completed by TKDA, which recognized that the North and South building roofs, need to be
replaced. The Board directed staff to obtain proposals to prepare plans and specifications
according to HUD regulations. Proposals were received from TKDA for $19,000, SEH
Company for $18, 400 plus $1,600 per week for project management, RHA for $ 7, 600 and
INSPEC for $18, O00 plus $6,000 for project management. Staff recommended Board approval
of the proposal from TKDA, as they are the lowest, responsible bid for the engineering services.
Fehst stated the City has had good experiences with RHA doing the Library, Murzyn Hall, and
City Hall. However, it did concern him that RHA has never done a HUD project.
Nawrocki wondered why we were getting proposals for building specs when his experience with
roofing companies is that they will draw up the specs, and why is Nagel stating replacement of
both roofs, when the original CIP from TKDA last month didn't indicate the need for total
replacement on both buildings. Nagel stated we would need to replace the South building's roof
in the next year or so, therefore, he had the proposals submitted that way.
Streetar stated that at the last meeting the Board made a motion per TKDA 's CIP of Parkview
Villa to replace of just the North, building roof and repair to the section between the North and
South buildings. The Boardmembers agreed this was the motion voted upon last month.
MOTION by Peterson, second by Williams, to Approve the Bid from RHA Architects Inc. for
August 5, 2002 Special Meeting
Page 2 of 2
Building Specifications for replacement of the Parkview Villa North roof and the repair of the
roof area connecting the North and South buildings, contingent upon Mr. Hollman being clear on
