Park and requesting its clarification.
This resident had another concern which
perception that the level of service in
diminished over the last year.
focused on her
the City has
She referred to the City's organizational chart which reflects
that the City Manager is accountable to the City Council. The
resident suggested that some mechanism be established by the
Council for residents to evaluate the City Manager's
performance. Currently, if a resident wants to discuss the
City Manager's performance it can only be done with a member
of the Council. She also felt there was a need to update the
job description for the City Manager position. The last time
it was updated was in 1974.
It was also her desire that elected officials in the City be
held accountable for demonstrating the seven values of the
Values 1st Program.
This resident did some salary comparables for the City
Manager's position and specifically addessed the comparable
position in the City of Blaine. She feels the salary for the
position is being paid for knowledge, skills and abilities.
She wants to be shown value for the money paid to the City
Manager.
She suggested that the Strategi~ Plan be updated and published

CITIZENS OR RETIRED & DISABLED
PERSONS HARDSHIP SPECIAL DATE: DECEMBER 10, 1997
ASSESSMENT DEFERRAL
in 1982, the City Council adopted a resolution allowing the deferral of assessments
for senior citizens and disabled persons. The resolution established eligibility
criteria including a maximum income. The income level is updated annually by
resolution.
The attached resolution retains the criteria in the previous resolution and updates
the income eligibility amount to $16,800, the same dollar amount used for reduced
rates for senior citizens utility bills. The current income eligibility amount is
$16,600.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the Resolution, there being ample
copies available to the public.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to adopt Resolution 97-75 establishing a new maximum
income of $16,800 for senior or retired and disabled persons to be eligible for
special assessment deferral.

RESOLUTION NO. 97 - 75
BEING A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING SENIOR CITIZENS OR RETIRED
AND DISABLED PERSONS HARDSHIP SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DEFERRAL
Whereas, immediate payment of special assessments or installments on special assessments cast an undue
hardship on some persons owning h~mestead properties who are 65 years of age or older or retired by virtue
of a permanent and total disability for whom it would be a hardship to make payments, and
Whereas, Minnesota Statutes §435.193 - 435.195 makes it possible for a home rule charter city to pass a
resolution establishing standards and guidelines for determining the existence of a hardship and for
determining the existence of a disability.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS:
This deferral procedure shall apply only to assessments which are payable in five or more annual
installments.
10.
11.
12.
13.
This deferral procedure shall apply only to property owned and occupied by the elderly, retired,
or disabled applicant. Ownership and occupancy must be of the same nature as would qualify the
applicant for a homestead exemption for tax purposes.
This deferral procedure shall apply only to homestead property owned by a person 65 years of age
or older or retired by virtue of a permanent and total disability for whom it would be a hardship
to make payments. Permanent and total disability shall have the same definition for purposes of
assessment deferral as is used for social security purposes.
This deferral procedure shall not be construed as to prohibit the determination of hardship on the
basis of exceptional and unusual circumstances not covered by the standards and guidelines herein
so long as determination is made in a nondiscriminatory manner and does not give the applicant an
unreasonable preference or advantage over other applicants.
In order to obtain a deferral of an assessment, the homeowner must make application on the forms
prescribed by the City of Columbia Heights Assessment Clerk.
In granting a deferred assessment, the Council shall determine in its resolution approving the
assessment roll the amount of interest, if any, to be charged on the deferred assessment.
The option of the homeowner to defer the payment of special assessments shall terminate and all
amounts accumulated plus applicable interest shall become due and payable upon the occurrence of
any of the following events:
the death of the owner, provided that the spouse is not otherwise eligible for benefits
hereunder;
b. the sale, transfer or subdivision of the property or any part thereof;
c. if the property should for any reason lose its homestead status; or
if for any reason the City shall determine that there would be no hardship to require
i~mediate or partial payment.
No deferral may be granted unless the homeowner makes application to the City Assessment Clerk
within thirty (30) days after adoption of the assessment by the Council.
The deferral shall apply to only 50% of the annual installment payment. If the 50% is not paid in
a timely manner, the balance of the am_nual installment along with all future installments shall
become immediately due and payable.
No deferral shall be granted to any owner who has a gross annual household income from all sources
in excess of $16,800.00
No deferral may be continued from year to year unless the owner shall file a renewal application
before September 15th of each year.
No special assessment m~y be deferred for a period longer than the time set by the Council as the
time over which the project is to be assessed.
Interest on deferred assessments shall be at the rate set by the Council in its resolution adopting
the assessment roll, and such interest shall be added to the amount deferred and shall be paid in
accordance with Minnesota Statute §435.195 and this Resolution.
Passed this 22n~ day of December, 1997.

ITEM: SOFTWARE SUPPORT AGREEMENT BY: JUNE JOHNST~
WITH BUSINESS RECORDS
CORPORATION DATE: NOV. 10, 1997
NO.:
In December 1989, the City entered into an agreement with Business Records Corporation to
purchase a five-year software support agreement. The agreement was extended for three years
in December 1994. The software support agreement provides us with annual maintenance on
software as well as providing at no cost updates as changes are made. The attached support
agreement is an additional three-year extension of the original agreement. The total cost of the
three-year agreement is $24,135, or $8,045 annually -- an increase of $421 per year, or an
increase of 5.5% since 1995. It is staff's recommendation to continue the software support
agreement as it provides ongoing telephone support, help in resolving day-to-day operational
problems, updates to the software as they are developed, and ongoing staff training in the
operation of the various programs.
Without the software maintenance agreement the City will not get software updates. In
addition, the City would be charged between $100 and $200 per hour for all service and
assistance we receive from BRC. At this average rate, 54 hours of service would cost more than
the maintenance agreement.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into a
three-year software support agreement with Business Records Corporation for maintenance of
financial software packages at a cost not to exceed $24,135, billed annually at $8,045 per year.

INCOME GUIDELINES
NO: ~.,/~ -- ti DATE: DEC. 5, 1997
Income eligibility guidelines for senior citizen utility rates are established on an annual basis.
The 1997 maximum income eligibility level was set at $16,600. Attached is a resolution
establishing the 1998 maximum income eligibility level at $16,800 to receive reduced senior
citizen rates in 1998. This amount was computed utilizing the same formula that has been used
in prior years. The formula used is the maximum Social Security benefits for an individual 65
years old, plus 4% rounded to the next even $100 increment. For 1998, the maximum Social
Security level for a 65 year old individual is $16,104. The 4% adjustment to this figure in the
City's eligibility level allows for $696 in other income.
The City Council can set any formula or amount for income eligibility. The formula used here
and in the past is equitable for the truly low income senior citizens. If the City establishes the
income eligibility guideline at a higher level, more people will qualify. As more people qualify
for reduced rates, the rates for non-qualifying people will have to be raised to ensure adequate
revenue in the utility fund. For several years, the number of seniors receiving the reduced rate
has remained constant at approximately 200 residents.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the resolution, there being ample
copies available to the general public.

Meetin~ of December 22, 1997
CITY MANAGER
APPROVAIr: ~ /
BACKGROUND
In July 1997 the Columbia Heights Police Department was awarded a COP's '96 grant from the federal
government. This grant included funds for one civilian CSO and $22,791 for four in-car laptop
computers. See attached Resolution g97-41. In order for the laptops to work as mobile digital terminals
in the squads, we need to purchase Motorola MDT radio/modems at a cost of $3,200 each. These are
the only modems that will work because the radio system is proprietary to Motorola. In the past these
modems have taken several months to obtain, so we are ordering the four modems before we order the
laptop computers or the stands for the computers. The funds for this purchase $13,632 including tax,
would come from fund 8'277, our COP's '96 federal grant.
ANALYSIS/CONCLUSION
The total cost of a laptop computer, the Motorola modem to run it, and the stand to mount the computer
in our squads is less that the cost of one mobile digital terminal. We also get the added feature/dual
functionality of being able to type our reports and keep our logs on the laptop, which we cannot do on
an MDT. It is the recommendation of the Police Department to continue with the purchase of laptop
computers for the squad cars and to continue to use funds such as this grant to make these purchases.
RECOMMENDED MOTION
Move to authorize the purchase of four Motorola MDT radio/modems at a cost of $13,632 including tax.

CITY COUNCIL LETTER
Meeting of: December 22, 1997
AGENDA SECTION: CONSENT ORIGINATING DEPT.: CITY MANAGER
NO: ~ License Department ~ APPROVAL
ITEM:Denial of Taxicab Driver Application BY: Kathryn Pepin~ BY:~~~~
NO: Gregory Ulrich Emond ~--~--~--~ DATE: December 17, 1997
Mr. Gregory Emond has made application with the City of Columbia Heights to drive
a taxicab within the City for 1998. Mr. Emond currently drives a taxicab owned by
Suburban Green and White and has a license to drive in Columbia Heights during 1997.
Upon investigation by the Police Department, it was found that Mr. Emond has had
four driving violations in fourteen months. Therefore, his application for a
license has been recommended for denial by the Police Department.
Attached you will find a memo from Captain Leonard Olson accompanied by a copy of
the State of Minnesota driving record of Gregory Ulrich Emond indicating the four
moving violations within the past fourteen months. Captain Olson believes this "to
be an exhibit of driving behavior that is detrimental to transporting our community
residents" and feels "this record will create a drivers license suspension in the
very near future".
Also attached is a copy of my letter to Mr. Emond advising him of the recommended
denial and his right to appear before the City Council at this meeting. As of the

AND CALL FOR PUBLIC HEARING ~ '"~ ' ]
On November 24, 1997, the City Council adopted Resolutions No. 97-67, 97-68 and 97-69 calling for the City Engineer to prepare a
Feasibility Report for Street Improvements in Zone 3. The attached Resolution receives the report and calls for the Public Improvement
Hearing. The Resolution and Feasibility Report list the streets recommended for improvement and the type of improvement proposed.
In reviewing the condition of the streets in Zone 3, bounded by Central Avenue on the west, 47m Avenue from Central Avenue to Johnson
Street and 45m Avenue from Arthur Street to Stinson Bbulevard on the south, Stinson Boulevard on the east, and the Corporate Limit on
the north, staff identified those streets that were in need of reconstruction and those streets where an overlay or a treatment of recycled
base and new asphalt would preserve the existing pavement structure and extend the life of the street. The City Engineer is recommending
that the streets listed be improved as the improvements would be feasible and necessary and cost effective in preserving the investment the
City, its residents and users have in the street system.
The total estimated cost of the listed projects is $1,162,700. The total proposed assessment is $519,000. It is further proposed that
$197,900 in Administration and Engineering costs be absorbed by the City, $163,800 from the Infrastructure Fund be used to cover
construction cost not covered by assessments, $69,000 from the Sewer Fund be used for storm sewer improvements and $213,000 from
the Water Fund be used for the replacement of the waterman in Chatham Road, Heights Drive, East Upland Crest and Pierce Terrace.
The staff is requesting that the Public Improvement Hearing for Zone 3 Street Rehabilitation projects be held on January 27, 1998. The
staff will hold an informal meeting with residents in Zone 3 on January 8, 1998. All streets in Zone 3 not receiving an improvement will
be seal coated. It is anticipated that the Seal Coat Improvement Hearing will be scheduled for early March 1998.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the Resolution there being ample copies available to the public.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to adopt Resolution No. 97- 78 being a resolution receiving the report on Street Improvements in
Zone 3 including complete reconstruction, recycled base and new surface, and milling and overlay and calling for a hearing on said
improvements.

ITEM: APPROVE RESOLUTION TO REBUDGET BY: K. Hansen~ BY:
$30,000 FOR PORTABLE AERATORS ON LABELLE DATE: 12/16/¢.~~'~-'' f DATE:
PON
Background:
In 1992 and 1993, a Restoration and Maintenance Study was completed for LaBelle Pond by HNTB Consulting Engineers. The
purpose of the study was to present methods for the restoration and maintenance of LaBelle Pond. Alternative methods were
evaluated to enhance water quality and improve LaBelle Pond's ability to serve multiple uses, including 1) DNR protected
wetlands, 2) Stormwater ponding, and 3) City recreation area. Largely, the study was conducted to address neighboring
resident's concern over water quality and odors from the pond.
The study addressed several alternatives to improve xvater quality and abate odors, including pond dredging and aeration. Pond
dredging would remove accumulated sediment, restore pond volume, remove nutrient rich organic matter, and discourage
unwanted aquatic growth. Aeration adds dissolved ox3'gen to the water which reduces odor problems. For LaBelle Pond, the
study recommended that aeration should not be performed without pond dredging. LaBelle Pond was excavated and dredged
under City Project #9312 in 1996.
The 1997 budget provided $30,000 under the Parks Capital Improvement Fund for portable aerators for LaBelle Pond. Further
analysis of this approach is currently being researched by Engineering staff. Additionally, two other items are being investigated
by staff:
Outside funding sources: Department of Natural Resources, Watershed Management Organization
Public Education within the LaBelle Pond Tributary Area
Analysis/Conclusions:
I believe the identification and pursuit of outside funding sources should be a part of any water management improvement.
Furthermore, a public education campaign would also enhance the City's goal of improving water quality in LaBelle Pond.
Public Works/Engineering requests that funds be rebudgeted for the LaBelle Pond aeration system into the 1998 budget.

In 1992, the HRA established a Business Revolving Loan Fund (BRLF). Three loans were approved
in 1992-1993 for a total of $67,500. On November 9, 1993, the HRA Board approved the use of up
to an additional $50,000 of HRA money for BRLF loans with the understanding that when these
funds were committed future BRLF loans would be restricted to use of loan payback monies unless
the City or other entity provided additional funds. Since that time, there have been several
discussions between the HRA, EDA and City Council regarding the City contributing $50,000 of
the initial seed money in the BRLF. This was again discussed at the City Council work session
December 15, 1997. A contribution of $50,000 to the BRLF by the City will provide the HRA with
sufficient funds to eliminate the 1996 year-end deficits in the HRA and the EDA.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the resolution, there being
ample copies available to the general public.

Meeting of: DECEMBER 22, 1997
AGENDA SECTION: ORIGINATING DEPT.: CITY MANAGER
ITEM: WORKERS' COMPENSATION BY: WILLIAM ELRITtia ~ BY:~'7"_~~.~.
The City's current workers' compensation insurance policy expires December 31, 1997. Last year, the City
switched workers' comp carriers from the League of Minnesota Cities' Insurance Trust administered by
Berkley Administrators to St. Paul Companies. This was done for two reasons: first, the rate quoted by St.
Paul Companies was slightly lower than the rate quoted by Berkley; secondly, the low quality of service
from Berkley Administrators over the past 1! years. During the past year, the quality of service from St.
Paul Companies has been very favorable, and has been a noted improvement from Berkley Administrators.
For the past 10 years the City has seen some significant premium decreases in workers' comp, primarily due
to improved experience in fewer workers' comp claims. In the early 1990's the City's standard premium was
$180,000 per year. Due to improved experience, our current standard premium is $68,437. When the
premium was excessively high the City elected to take workers' comp under a retro refund option plan.
Under that plan the City did benefit slightly in that we paid the cost of the actual claims incurred plus
administration with a minimum and maximum premium cap. However, due to significantly reduced
premiums, this option is no longer highly beneficial to the City. It is our insurance agent's recommendation
and staff's recommendation that we return to a standard premium plan where we make an annual payment
of a standard premium which is not affected by claims that we may have during the year.
Under this option we received two premium quotes for workers' comp for 1998. The quote from Berkley
Administrators was $69,233, and the quote from St. Paul Companies was $68,437. As a result, it is staff's
recommendation to continue workers' comp insurance coverage with St. Paul Companies.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into an agreement
with St. Paul Companies for workers' compensation coverage under the standard premium plan at a cost
of $68,437.

Re: Workers' Compensation Insurance
Dear Bill:
We were able to get the St. Paul Fire and Marine to reduce their
premium $10,000, to $73,225 on the Retro Plan. The guaranteed
cost is $68,437. The League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust
is $69,233.
Based on the savings with the St. Paul Fire and garine, we
recommend continuing with the incumbent carrier.

ITEM: EXTENSION OF GIS RANGE RIDER BY: K. Hansen., ~ _~,~
co -a- .t. DATE: 12/11/97 --- : l l/z/ '7
Background:
In 1996 Council approved a Joint Powers Agreement with the cities of Andover and Fridley to hire an outside consultant to
provide GIS technical assistance. Several finns submitted proposals and were interviewed by representatives of each City. As a
result, Plan Sight was hired.
The Joint Powers Agreement terminates on December 3 I, 1997, unless extended by further agreement of the parties.
Analysis/Conclusion:
The cities of Andover, Fridley and Columbia Heights staff are interested in continuing the contract for 1998. Columbia Heights
lost two key people in the GIS area xvhen Mark Winson and Rich Nordstrom left. Continuing with Plan Sight will provide the
continuity we need to keep the program moving forward. ~
A report evaluating the 1997 goals and accomplishments and 1998 goals is attached. The 1998 goals for the City of Columbia
Heights are as follows:
Linking Utility Databases to Sewer and Water Coverages (Public Works/Engineering)
Updating parcel accuracy (Public Works/Engineering)
Providing analysis and mapping support for the Comprehensive Plan Process (Planning)
Analyzing and map crime data (Police)
Link GIS to fire database/analyze and map database information (Fire)
Develop process for dealing with easements in GIS (Finance/Assessing)
Additional tasks as identified
Columbia Heights benefits from work done under this contract for the other cities as well as our
Columbia Heights' share for the 1998 Tri-City GIS Range Rider is $15,666.00. Although this is not specifically budgeted for,
staffx~511 re-allocate funds within the 1998 Public Works budget to cover this expense.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve an extension to the GIS Joint Powers Agreement; and, authorize the Mayor
and City Manager to enter into an agreement for the same.

Introductlon,:
The Tri-City OlS Range Rider program has been a very interesting test Of how cities can jointly address GIg
staffing issues. The first portion of this repeal briefly evaluates how well the project has met the ori~dnal
goals, reviexvs the unexpected events that occurred over the past year, discusses the performance of city
staf~ emd compares the value of the GIS setw'iees rendered against other options The ~cond portion oft?tis
report outlines the proposed scope of GIS services offered by PlanSight, LLC and an estimate of the
associated hours and costs, Hopefully, this report will proxY, de a basis for evaluating the 1997 Tri-City GIS

t997 GIS ~,o,a.ls:
From PlanSight's perspective, we feel that the 1997 pro.am was a success. In reviet~ing the goals outline
in the t997 contract, we estimate that by the end of this year, we will have completed a majority of the tasks
identified, and, in some instances, we will have gone wet[ beyond what we originally anticipated doing On
the other hand, a few of the tasks we plmmed on completing this year may have to be postponed until next
year or be dropped altogether. Following are the specific tasks outtmed in the orignnat contract and a brief
discussion of what has been accomplished (or Mil be by the end of the year)'

2. Axse,yx t~[m~ion.for completeness,
A sign~cant ~om~t of time was spent assessing the e~sting databases in each city. Some of the data

22.
Training sessions have been postponed for several reasons: 1) there are only a few copies of ArcView
available in each city, 2) many of the people who would be attending these sessions have already had
some one-on-one training, and, most importantly, 3) AreExplorer promises to be a much more wideIy
used GIS tool and should be used in place of ArcView in many cases. Joint training sessions in
ArcExptorer xvould be much more beneficial for most city employees interested in accessing and
analyzing the availabIe G1S data. loint training in either ArcView or ArcExplorer is still being
considered, but is premature until a new GIS plan incorporating ArcExpIorer is developed.

hfformat one-on-one training with city staffs has been undertaken as needed, especially in concert with
the development of specialized scripts. Widespread one-on-one training has not been scheduled for the
same rea.~ons previously discussed.
Overall xve tlfink we did a pretty good job staying focused on the original project goals. This was sometimes
frustrating for both ourselves and city staff because we had to postpone several projects until we could be
sure the original goals were met.
The GIS Range Rider Team:
The team approach to providing services worked vet3' well in some instances and less well in others. We
were able to work together a number of times to successfully address a number of problems Often, we
were able to split up (3IS tasks to take better advantage of our respective skills. This approach worked very
well except for those times when the skills ot' one of us was needed when the other was working on the
prqieet. The~ instances were relatJveIy few and we were usually able to work tkings out. The team
approach also allowed us to double up and prey/de GIS selMces to two cities at the same time. Aa it has
worked out so far, Soel Lenz has spent the most time on the project, primarily as a result ofthe high demand
for custom ArcView applications and ,cripts. A~ a whole, we believe the team approach has significant
advantages over a single individual and will co~rtinue to provide services in this fashion in the future.
Unanticipated Develoy~ments:
As with any major project, there were a few bumps along the way. Following are a few of the unanticipated
events that were encountered:
~j&tt_o_n.t_Application Development
We have spent more time than anticipated customizing Aa-cView for city staff. The popularity of the scripts
demanded that we generate more of them than we ori~nalty intended. This is a positive turn ofeverfls as it
reflects staff's desire to utilize GIS for corem, on ta~ks. 1998 (3IS tasks should include the continued
development of custom applications for use in ~dl three cities.
Add~lional ProjectE
More OlS analysis and mapping projects were undertaken than was originally intended, tn many cases,
these projects were natural extensions of the GIS data updating process. Many of the projects, however,
were for special purposes and not an integral part of the overall GIS implementation plan.
The ir~troduction of Arc'E.-,cptorer significantly changed our outlook for GIS data management, data
dissemination, and training about two-thirds of'the way through the project. We ori~nally intended to use
ArcView as the primary Mewing and analysis mol for city staff. Now, with ArcExplorer, it is obvious that
the need for ArcView wilt be limited to only those staff who need to do some complex data generation,
analysis, or mapping, ArcExplorer has now become the sotttw~re of choice for those staff who only need
occasional access to GIS data. They way in which ArcExplorer handles infotxnation is signLqcantly different
~han ArcView. This chmhge in data management requirements means ~ve have to adjust our original GIg data
management procedures. While this has thrown a hi,cup into our original plans, t think the result w-ill be a
vastly more utilized G-IS database. One of the highest priorities for 1998 should be to install ArcExplorer
and l;he necessary 13.t8 data on anyone's computer who would benefit.
plans, I think the result wilt be a vastly mort utilized (}tS database, One of the highest priorities for 1998
should be to in.~.atl ArcE.xptorer and the necessary 0[$ data on anyone's computer who would benefit.
Late Starting
Not Starting until May in Andover was unfortunate in the respect that we had to severely cut back our ours
in Fridley and Columbia Heights jus~ as man)' of the depm'tmems were becoming more aware of Gig. The
delay also caused some scheduling headaches later in the year.
A,dover Ptrrcc. l l~a.~m, ap
It took longer than anticipated to decide on how to update Andover's parcel basemap. We reviewed several
options with city staffand finally decided on updating the parcels in-house We are stilt concerned about the
accuracy of this data, especially tbr use in engineering and public works. Pamel base map accuracy is also a
problem to a lesser degree in Columbia Heigl~ts and FrldIey. The Anoka County Stow'ny department bas
recently stepped-up their development of a N.~y accurate digital parc~l map. Presumably, thi~ data will be
incorporated into the county's (}IS database. If so, each oily should plan on the acqtdsition of this data
when and if'it becomes available.
Due to other obligations, Pt~nSight staff' are not always able to work tonal*tent eight hour days on the
Range Rider project. Start'meetings, client meetings, and other projects occasionally draw one or both of us
away. As a result, we o~. have to work odd hours to keep up on our time. Right now we are
approximately one week behind on hour.* for the year We vail both be working at the same time on the
Range Rider project during parts of November and December to make up for lost hours City Maff'has been
understanding and flexible in this regard. This does, however, po~e some scheduling problems, especially as
they relate to the continuity of the time spent in each city.
Hohd~_ x
The Tri-City GIS Range Rider Program was ofi~nally set up to provide a OlS tectmlcian with a full time job
plus two weeks vacation per year. The 1997 contract calied for 50 weeks/2000 hours of consulting services.
Unfortunately, we forgot to take holidays into consideratlon. There are at least 5 major holidays during the
year that we can't work, therefore, we can only take off an additional 5 days during the year ibr vacation,
otc instead of the intended 10 days.
Fridte~ Digitize; gto. e.?L~.d t'.,h.~rall Teclmical .gu:port
Too much time was spent trySng to get the digitizers to work in Fridley. Technical difficulties postponed
several projects and caused a lot of frus~'ation ,Lack of computer lechnical support within each city caused
several delays. Problems with computer equipment sometimes hampered our ability to provide quality
' services. Most of these problems have been resolved, but a few are still causing inefficiencies.
.City_ Staff Evaluation:
City ~afI' in all three cities have been particularly helpful. The amount of direcdon and oversight has varied
considerably from city to city, but alt city ,tat¥ members have been very helpful when there assistance was
needed. FotloMng are a few of the staffmernbers Joel and I have found the most helpfut in each city:

Value or' Se.ex, ices Rendered:
By the end ofthe year, each city wil[ have spent $1,3,333.33 to have Ioet and I pro~-ide GIS services on-site
for tour months. To judge whether or not each city received lis money's worth, I would suggest comparing:
1) the cost of the amount and quality of work we were able to complete with the cost of the amount and
quality of work that was completed in the cities before our arrival, 2) lhe cost ofslmitar services provided by
an outside consultant, and 3) the cost of hiring a full time GIS professional. Fridley and Andover both had
full tlme people working on GIS before we started. In comparing the work these employees with the work
we have done, we feet that we have been much more productive and generated a much higher quality of
service than was previously available. If billed at the going rate for GIg consulting ($60.00-$8000/hour), the
same amount and quality of services ren&~'ed to the cities would have cost from $120,000.00 to
$t60,000.00. The third comparison would be lhe cost of hiring a similarly qualified full time GI$ employee.
Annual salaries for GIS professionals ranging from $35,000 00 to $45,000.00 are routinely being paid by
cities and other organiz, atioas in the Twin Cities area. 'l~ese salaries translate into real costs of at least
$40,000.00 to $50,000.00 annually. Also keep in mind that the cities are benefiting from fl~¢ experience of
two GIS pro.fessionals instead of one. When considering ail of these facts, we believe that the Tri-Cities vie
geuing a great deal, and so do several other communities that are currently considering staffing similar GIS

ITEM: AUTHORIZATION TO PURCHASE A 3/4 TON BY: K. Hanse~/~ BY:
4 X 4 PICKUP q. ~ -,~.~ DATE: 12/15/9~b---"~ DATE:
Background:
The new vehicle would replace pickup #26, a 1983 Ford lA ton, 4x2. This is a Street Department vehicle that is assigned to the
Street Foreman. It has 84,000 miles on it, the body condition is fair, the box was replaced two >,ears ago, and the entire truck has
been painted several times. It has been used to pull the City float and asphalt roller. It's use in the ~Snter time has been limited
because it is not equipped to plow snow.
In an effort to improve the efficiency of summer seasonals, by pro'riding them with something other than an old Police car to
drive, staff would like to move pickup #26 into the Park Department and let the seasonals use it next summer. It would be
scheduled for disposal at the City Auction in the Fall of 1998.
Analysis/Conclusions:
Staff is recommending a 3/4 ton, 8600 lb GVW 4x4 pickup to improve plowing operations and towing capability..
Staff would like to purchase the replacement vehicle and plow offthe 1998 Hennepin County contract. Staffhas been in
communication with the dealer that has been awarded the contract and the projected cost of the vehicle and plow attachment is
$22,913.00.
$35,000 has been budgeted in the 1997 Capitol Equipment Replacement Fund to replace Vehicle #26.
Staff has compared prices and packages that are available through State Bid, County Bid and vehicles that the dealer has in
stock. The County contract allows the City to choose the necessary options and order a vehicle that meets our needs. The City
should save about $1,000 by purchasing under the County contract.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize staffto purchase a 3/4 ton, 8600 lb GVW 4x4 pickup, equipped x~Sth a 7'6"
Western Plow package offthe 1998 Hennepin County Contract, #4204A7, from Grossman Chevrolet x~Sth funds to be taken from
the Capital Equipment Replacement Fund, # 431-43121-5150.

It was moved seconded and passed to approve the minutes of the November 3rd meeting as mailed.
The November 24'h bill list was reviewed. It was moved, seconded, and passed that they be paid.
The December 8'h bill list was reviewed. It was moved, seconded and passed that they also be paid.
The a, ccounting was reviewed.
Old Business:
It was reported that the roof leaked on Tuesday, November 26. No one has come to do the repairs at
this time. The City Manager has been alerted to the situation.
Grant update was presented.
A. A report on the LSCA (Library Services Construction Act) grant was given. The deadline
for the grant for the current year expired on 9/30/97. There is a chance that there will be
grant money available again next year so all data will be compiled so that the library will be
ready to send in for them as they are made available.
B. On December 1st a meeting with the media specialists from District 13 was held. The
purpose of the meeting was to find a co-respondent for technology grants. Joyce Bliss was
the initial contact with the school. Those who attended the meeting were very receptive.
The district has had a technology plan in place for about a year for not only the district but
each building. Another meeting has been scheduled for December 17th, a rough draft of a
survey is being worked on and it was suggested that Becky and Marsha meet with the
Superintendent, Dr. Buehlow. This will be followed up on.
C. The property on Central Avenue and 41st was discussed. The information about dimensions
of the property was reviewed.
D. A boiler plate for use on grant applications that includes community background
information, annual report data, and other information that is required is being worked on.
The budget memo of t 1/12/97 was reviewed. The Finance Director, in the document he submitted, has
recommended only taking out $4,000 for the storage closet. The Council Meetings for December are
undecided at this time. Bills will be submitted as necessary.
Becky has met with Jerry Young to discuss the proposed meeting with the Anoka County Library Board and
the Columbia Heights Public Library Board on December 15. The ACL Board would like to see our
building and is requesting that the meeting be held here. ACL will hold their regular business meeting from
5:30 to 6:30 in the activity room, and the joint meeting will take place at 6:30. A tentative agenda has been
compiled. The agenda is very loose to facilitate the exchange of ideas and to celebrate what has been
accomplished by cooperation. Barbara Miller will chair the evening.
Security System update was presented. Construction is complete, but a few key pieces are still on back
order. The bugging is progressing at a steady'pace. The Library Board has volunteered to come in and bug
on Saturday, January 31, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.
New Business:
1. Crossover statistics were reviewed.
Marsha and Becky are on the steering committee that will work with the design team that is coming into
Columbia Heights next spring. This project concerns the business district and Central Avenue corridor.
The library would like to be included in the overall plan for the City and is interested in relocating to Central
Avenue if possible.
o
Columbia Heights is the only library in the County that is collecting books for Project Bookshelf through
December 15. As the Board requested last year, we are concentrating on only one community service type
of project. Branches of Anoka County Libraries that have new book donations will forward them to us for
inclusion with our books.
Becky was approached by Fran Jensen from the Sister City Committee for ideas for collecting books or
money for books to send to Columbia Heights' sister city Lomianki, Poland. The Library Board suggested
that they collect money from service organizations like the Chamber of Commerce, or private individuals
and then purchase new books. They suggested getting a list of possible titles from either Marsha Tubbs, the
Children's Librarian, or contacting the English as a Second Language teachers at Highland or the high
school.
o
The Board discussed what they would like to do for a holiday get together. They decided that they would
like to go out for lunch after "bugging" on January 31st to a local restaurant. Bascali's was chosen and each
member will pay for their own menu choices.
There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 8:45 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

STAFF REPORTS:
A. Selection of Consultant for Preparation of Comprehensive Plan, Rewrite of Zoning Ordinance, and Ongoinq
Technical Services.
Mr. Anderson stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission, at the November Planning and Zoning Commission
meeting, discussed the necessity of utilizing the services of a professional planning consultant to assist in the
preparation of updating the Comprehensive Plan which is necessary to comply with the requirements of the
Metropolitan Land Planning Act which stipulates that updated plans be submitted to the Metropolitan Council by
December of 1998. He further stated that commencing in 1999 the Act requires that the Comprehensive Plan and
Zoning Ordinance complement one another and are not inconsistent as to land use issues. Therefore, staff has
recommended that the Zoning Ordinance be rewritten to reflect changes in state laws and changes in local market
and land use conditions. Mr. Anderson reiterated that the rewritten Zoning Ordinance should be consistent with
the policies and objectives of the updated Comprehensive Plan. Staff also recommended utilizing the services of
a planning consultant that would be available on an ongoing, as-needed basis. The consultant would be available
to assist with the implementation and technical interpretation of the policies and objectives of the Comprehensive
Plan and Zoning Ordinance on a project specific basis.
Mr. Anderson added that after consideration of the staff recommendation, the Planning and Zoning Commission and
City Council approved the distribution of a Request for Proposal (RFP) to solicit proposals from
planning/engineering/design consultants to assist in preparation of an updated Comprehensive Plan, rewrite of the
Zoning Ordinance, and ongoing technical assistance. He stated that an RFP and a copy of the current
Comprehensive Plan were sent to nine firms specializing in planning work. He dirscted the Commissioner's attention
to the list of consultants and the copy of the RFP included in the agenda packet. He indicated that two firms,

BRW (who prepared the current Comprehensive Plan) and the Hoisington Koegler Group sent letters indicating that
they would not respond due to their current work Icad. He added that Schoell and Madson, Inc. did not respond.
He indicated that copies of the proposals from the remaining six organizations were included with the agenda
packets for the Commissioners review.
Mr. Anderson stated that the City Council has already authorized a contract with Nancy Reeves and Associates
to prepare a Life-Cycle Housing report. He explained that in conjunction with staff preparing a Housing Study, this
report will provide the basis for the Housing Section of the Comprehensive Plan. He informed the Commission that
a draft of this report has been received and will be reviewed by staff prior to review by the Planning and Zoning
Commission.
Mr. Anderson also reviewed with the Commission the money available in the budget to undertake these tasks. He
informed the Commission that there are two sources of grant funds which have been requested to offset these
consultant costs. The first is 87,410 from a planning grant from the Metropolitan Council. The second will also
be through a grant from the Metropolitan Council, and, if approved, would be 81,875 to offset the 84,000 in costs
for the Life-Cycle Housing Report which has been completed in draft form. He stated that the 1997 Adopted City
Budget included 85,000 in expert and professional services for this work as well as 820,000 in the 1998 Proposed
Budget for the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance rewrite. The total of these amounts is 834,285 minus
the contract for the Life-Cycle Housing Report for a not to exceed amount of 84,000 leaving a balance of 830,285
for the funding of the process.
Mr. Anderson stated that there are a number of issues for the Commission to address regarding the selection
process of the consulting firm such as how to go about the selection process, determining who to interview,
determining who will conduct and participate in the interviews, deciding upon which criteria to use to select a
consultant, and setting a timetable for the selection process. He provided some suggestions for each of these areas
as well as a proposed timetable.
Discussion was held as to how to go about the selection process, who to interview, and who will conduct and
participate in the interviews. The Commission ranked the firms who submitted proposals as follows based on cost
factor, amount proposed to rewrite the Zoning Ordinance, the timetable to complete the project and the overall
presentation of material:
1. Loucks & Associates, Inc./Biko Associates, Inc./Town Planning Collaborative
2. McCombs, Frank, RoDs, Associates.

tion of the Columbia Heights Economic Development Authority (EDA)
Approving the Financial Statement and Payment of Bills for the month of
October, 1997. All voted aye. MOTION CARRIED.
C. Review EDA/HRAFund Balances.
Mr. Anderson reported the auditor identified fund deficits in the EDA
and HRA funds at year end, 1996. The deficit in the HRA fund was
$15,447 and the EDA was $32,750. The total deficit for both funds is
$48,197.
In order to meet the deficit, staff is pursuing reimbursement of
expenditures that are CDBG eligible. The Finance Department has
identified $102,757.57 in unreimbursed expenditures in the CDBG Fund
202. Staff is exploring the use of the ACCAP loan proceeds used to
finance the Tyler Heights project to pay for the unreimbursed expendi-
tures. By using these proceeds, the deficits in the HRA and EDA can be
offset when the reimbursement is received.
Mr. Anderson gave a verbal report with supporting documentation to the
Board and walked them through the reimbursement process and amounts
anticipated to be received. He stated the EDA currently has a balance
of approximately $159,000 in proceeds which is accumulating interest and
we are looking at applying these funds to HRA/EDA deficits. Mr. Fehst
interjected that the City Council had authorized a payment of $36,000 in
1995 for rehab work done on 4607 Tyler St. N.E. which was forwarded to
Anoka County. However, this was not recorded by the County, which is
possibly money that could be available to correct the deficit.
R~PORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMPANY.
A. Jennifer Stoopes-Mokamba, Public Housing Administrator.
Ms. Stoopes-Mokamba reviewed the written Parkview Villa Monthly Report,
listened to Commissioners comments and answered their questions. Ms.
Stoopes-Mokamba briefly discussed the issue of a small number of
residents that have launched a negative campaign against Parkview Villa
and have gone to the Focus newspaper with their complaints.
Shirley Barnes, CEO of Crest View, commented that 95% of the residents
are happy with their living situation at Parkview Villa and do not have
issues with the building. Staff will continue to address issues that
are brought to them, however, when complaints are received anonymously,
a response cannot be made. She encouraged the Board to support the
Parkview Villa staff and recognize the fine job they are doing.
A copy of a letter that was sent to the Focus Newspaper~ signed by 90 of
the- Parkview Villa residents, was handed out to the Board members
showing their appreciation for'a quality building like Parkview Villa to
call home.

Commissioner Dustin suggested taking the comfortable chairs out of the
lobby area to eliminate residents sitting there and letting people in
the security doors that should not be admitted. Plus he suggested
residents be warned to watch when leaving the garage to make sure the
door is completely down before driving off thereby allowing no one
entrance to the building.
Ms. Stoopes-Mokamba recommended doing a criminal check on residents
applying to move into Parkview Villa. She stated the criminal check
would go back 5 years. She has been investigating different companies
and there seems to be various costs for various types of checks.
Nineteen dollars was quoted to do a criminal, credit, and UD (unlawful
detainer) check, if out of state it would be an additional $15.00. She
asked the Commissioners to consider this possibility and she will put a
proposal in writing for the next meeting. The only check done at this
time is the last rental reference.
Lighting issues were discussed. Ms. Stoopes-Mokamba has reviewed the
lighting situation with the police department. Both staff and the
police feel there is sufficient lighting in the front of the building.
The cost to add more lighting to the building is estimated to be $3,400
and that would not include trenching, digging, replacement/repair of
wiring. It is important to have adequate lighting, however, it is also
important to keep in mind residents bedrooms are on that side of the
building and we do not want lighting so bright it is disruptive.
Parkview Villa's Christmas party will be held on December 13th.

line item. This budget totals $1,002 for the surveillance camera
system. Attached to the agenda packet was a copy of the Request for
Proposals and Specifications for Installation of Security Cameras. The
specifications have been modified to include a camera to view the
parking lot area of the site.
Mr. Anderson stated it is important to note that the camera system will
Dot be monitored on a 24 hour basis, rather it will be used to tape
record events that can be later reviewed to determine the course of
events that transpired at another time. However, a monitor will be
available to view from the management office and can be viewed when the
office is staffed.
MOTION by Jolly, second by Dustin, to authorize staff to seek proposals
to install a surveillance camera system in Parkview Villa and to
authorize the Executive Director to enter into an agreement for the same
and that all related expenses are to be reimbursed out of proper funds.
All voted aye. MOTION CARRIED.
Approve Utility Monitoring Agreement with SM Engineering Co.
Mr. Anderson reported the EDA has been approached by representatives of
SM Engineering Co. (SME) to evaluate our utility bills to determine if
savings can be achieved. SME will analyze and audit our utility bills
to identify errors or overcharges by the utility that can be corrected
to realize savings to our facilities, i.e. Parkview Villa. The Public
Housing Administrator was contacted to attempt to ascertain if savings
could be achieved by talking directly to the utility companies. She was
not able to secure assistance from them to determine if other rate
options, discounts, credits, etc. would apply to our billings which
would result in savings. It is apparently the responsibility of the
customer to be familiar with various programs that would result in
better or more cost effective services.
SME was provided copies of some of our billings and determined that
there was a possibility of achieving "significant" savings at Parkview
Villa. The amount of savings was verbally estimated to be approximately
$1,000 per year based upon a preliminary analysis. The company's
standard agreement calls for a cost sharing in the amount of savings on
a 50 - 50 basis between SME and the EDA for a 60 month term. We have
managed to negotiate a lesser time frame of 30 months for sharing the
savings. At the end of the 30 month term, any savings resulting from
the refunds, credits, and/or lower rates will be completely retained by
the EDA.
Enclosed in the agenda packet was a Utility Monitoring Agreement that
will authorize SME to perform a detailed analysis after a review of our
past bills with the utility companies. Recommendations for savings will
be made by SME upon completion of said analysis. Payment to SME will be
made quarterly and subject to prior receipt of savings by the EDA. If
there are no savings realized, the EDA is not obligated to make any
payment.
Staff recommended the Board approve the Utility Monitoring Agreement and
authorize the Executive Director to. enter into said agreement as
amended.

The main concern of the Commissioners was that we not compromise service
for cost. After discussion it was determined since three of the Commis-
sioners were not present at the Board meeting this item should be
considered at another time.
MOTION by Dustin, second by Jones, to table this issue until the next
regular EDA Board meeting when more members are present. All voted aye.
MOTION CARRIED.
Approve revised Payment Standard and Utility Allowance for
section S.
Mr. Anderson reported that according to the Code of Federal Register
(CFR), which is the code that regulates the Section 8 program, Section
887.355 and 887.361 requires that the EDA review and adjust the Payment
Standard and Utility Allowance annually. Enclosed with the agenda
packet was a revised Payment Standard and Utility Allowance chart.
The Payment Standard is the maximum amount (rent plus utilities) which
will be paid by the EDA for any participant on the Section 8 Voucher
program. The Payment Standard is generally based on the Fair Market
Rents (FMR) which is the maximum amount paid on the Section 8 Certifi-
cate program. The FMR's are determined and adjusted annually by the
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to keep up with the
rental market.
The Utility Allowance chart is a standard for utility costs based upon
the bedroom size, type of utility and type of dwelling unit.
MOTION by Jones, second by Dustin, to adopt the Payment Standard and
Utility Allowance for the Section 8 Program effective October 1, 1997.
All voted aye. MOTION CARRIED.
4) 4150 Central Avenue N.E. Sale/Redevelopment Update.
Mr. Anderson reported the EDA had approved an "Exclusive Negotiations
Agreement" with several extensions to Steve Sawatsky of Menno Travel
Service. However, a letter from Mr. Sawatsky was received in the EDA
office on November 6th (a copy was attached to the agenda packet),
explaining that Menno Travel Service "no longer desires or intends to
pursue the purchase and renovation of the 4150 building."
There was discussion with the Commissioners regarding basic assumptions
and options for redevelopment of the 4150 Central Ave. N.E. site. Mr.
Anderson stated there has been strong interest shown in the facility on
the part of several other parties. Each of these parties could be
contacted to submit a proposal to renovate the building or a request for
proposals could be prepared and advertise in the local paper and mailed
directly to developers/builders to solicit interest in the building.
Another option not discussed previously would be to renovate and
maintain the facility for some public use, i.e. Police, Library, etc.
The parking and handicap accessibility continues.to be a great concern.

P/%GE 6
Commissioner Dustin suggested checking the cost to build a bridge over
42nd Avenue or having a skywalk going from buildings crossing the street
and possibly using the old vacant White Rental property to promote a
larger development project. Commissioners felt that whoever proposed a
project could come up with ideas of how they would like the site
developed and if they choose to have a bridge or skywalk they could ask
the City for help.
Update of HUD Approval of EDA Organizational Status.
Mr. Anderson updated the Commissioners regarding HUD's approval of the
establishment of the EDA and gave the history concerning the change from
an HRA to an EDA.
Mr. Anderson reported that he has reviewed information and has had
discussions with our legal counsel - Steve Bubul of Kennedy and Graven,
Chartered. Mr. Bubul stated all the necessary approvals were accom-
plished at the meetings and the EDA was established in full conformance
with state laws. However, what does remain to be completed and/or sent
to HUD is the following:
2.
3.
4.
5.
Obtaining an Official Seal for the EDA.
Executed copy of HRA Resolution 96-01.
Copies of the Oath of Office for each EDA Commissioner.
Tax identification number for the EDA.
Copy of By-laws.
Mr. Anderson reported he is working on the above items, they are being
addressed or have been completed. When the items are completed HUD will
review the information and when deemed satisfactory, prepare the
necessary deeds to transfer property to the EDA and any amendment to the
CACC to legally transfer the public housing project and Section 8
program to the EDA. Steve Bubul will directly contact HUD to assure
them of our compliance and answer any questions they may have. Mr.
Anderson will report on the progress at next month's meeting.
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS.
A. Report of the Deputy Executive Director.
Mr. Anderson commented that the staff is in the process of working on
the mission statement and goals and objectives for the EDA. He also
reported that the Boston Market restaurant located in Columbia Heights
has closed their store and he is investigating the reason why. Mr.
Anderson handed out a flyer regarding the sale of the office/retail
building at 4101 Central Avenue N.E.
Mr. Anderson reported that Request for Proposals have been sent out for
Planning Consultants and are due November 24th. Interviews will be
scheduled shortly.

Mr. Anderson has talked to Tom Torreson concerning the St. Timothy's
project and apparently they are working with the church at this time
regarding the land sale. There was lengthy discussion with everyone
agreeing they hope the project successfully goes forward. It was
suggested in the future when a big project is planned to keep the public
well informed from the onset of the project, possibly discussing it on
the cable TV show.
Mr. Anderson further reported that HUD had visited Margaret Place and
was very impressed with the facility. They now have a better under-
standing of Mary T., Inc. insistence on the installation of a commercial
kitchen at the Senior Housing Project at St. Timothy's. HUD has agreed
to receive an application from Mary T., Inc. for Section 221D4 financing
to help with the financing of this project. HUD will not finance the
estimated $500,000 in costs for the commercial kitchen. Mr. Anderson
has been working with Mary T., Inc. to see how much TIF financing is
needed. Commissioners expressed concern if the project is financed by
HUD would the EDA be obligated to follow HUD rules regarding who can
live in the building.
B. Report of the Executive Director.
Walt Fehst reported that an application would be submitted for the CD
Block Grant money for 1998. We will be asking for approximately the
same as last years $128,000 to be dedicated for commercial revitaliza-
tion and $60,000 to $70,000 for housing rehabilitation. He also stated
there is $100,000 anticipated to be used as state aid funds for street
improvements on Central Avenue.
Mr. Anderson stated that Hillcrest Development has expressed an interest
in the Columbia Heights Mall with some stipulations concerning lowering
taxes. Anderson suggested they submit something in writing showing what
the terms of their purchase would be, which would ultimately come back
to the EDA to be considered.
C. Committee/Other Reports. None.
