Adjournment 95/53 CITY COUNCIL LETTER Meeting of: July 10, 1995 AGENDA SECTION: ORDINANCES & RESOLUTIONS, ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: ~I~%~G~'S SECOND READING OF CITY MANAGER'S ~PP~J ORDINANCE NO. 1302 NO: 6 ITEM: SALE OF PROPERTY ON 38TH AVEN]JEN.~. BY: PATRICK HENTGES BY: NO:~, ~. _~ DATE: July 7, 1995 DATE: Attached please find an ordinance authorizing the sale of a storage building owned by the City at 500 38th Avenue N.E. and the adjacent railroad property is in the process of being acquired, located at 3725 5th Street N.E. The property, if approved, will be sold to the Columbia Heights Housing and Redevelopment Authority, and in turn to Robert Barnick for the Metro Assemblies, Inc. project. Over the past six months, the City Council has negotiated a development agreement with Robert Barnick, owner of Metro Assemblies regarding the sale and relocation of his business to the property. The City will provide Tax Increment Financing Assistance to Mr. Barnick in the form of writing down a portion of the value of the building and provide site development cost assistance. In turn, Mr. Barnick will invest approximately $100,000 in building improvements/ additions, and relocate Metro Assemblies business and its fifteen employees to the site. Mr. Barnick will pay approximately $60,000 and the City will receive another $60,000 of tax increments from the HRA to reimburse itself for a total investment in the site. Another $12,266 will be collected as administrative income and fees for the project. It is expected that the value of the property may exceed its previous tax level because of the building improvements and the addition. That additional tax value will be available to Mr. Barnick on an annualized basis in an aggregate amount of $50,416. All of these costs with the exception of the initial $60,000 payment will be amortized by an estimated annual tax of $8,842 over a fifteen year period, beginning in 1997 and ending in the year 2011. As previously stated, the tax increments are based upon a "pay-as-go" basis, thus requiring the developer to pay taxes before any tax increments will be distributed back to the project. Under this basis, the risk is minimal, except the City could experience delays in payment of administrative and/or building write-down reimbursements in the future. This is unlikely, however, because the property will be mortgaged under the S.B.A. 504 Program, whereby a considerable amount of the mortgage is guaranteed through a second interest on the part of the S.B.A. and a bank holding a first position on a balance of the mortgage. The Columbia Heights HRA will be considering the redevelopment agreement at their meeting on July 18, 1995. The first reading of this ordinance was held on June 26, 1995. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the second reading of the Ordinance, there being ample copies available to the public. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to Adopt Ordinance No. 1302, Ordinance Authorizing the Sale of 500 38th Avenue N.E. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to Approve Development Agreement with Robert Barnick and Columbia Heights HRA Regarding the Sale and TIF Development Assistance for 500 38th Avenue N.E. and to Authorize the Mayor and City Manager to Enter Into the Same.

This site would require 17 parking spaces, 19 are shown on the site plan. The proposed parking spaces shown at the north end of the building would be on the public right of way. With some simple redesign of the parking area the required parking spaces can be achieved. Additional parking could also be placed on the south end of the building, possibly at an angle, where there is a 10' drainage easement. This site is only required to have one loading dock. Mr. Barnick has proposed to eliminate the dock facing west and upgrade the north dock so that it is dock height and drive up height. According to Section 9.116(5)(a)&(b) of the Zoning Ordinance: All required loading berths shall be off-street. A loading berth shall not be located less than fifty (50) feet from the lot line of an abutting lot in an "R" District. Loading berths shall not occupy front yards or side street yards. Unless otherwise specified in this Ordinance, a required loading berth shall be not less than twelve feet (12') in width, twenty five feet (25') in length and fourteen (14') in height, exclusive of aisle and maneuvering space. Because of these requirements staff is suggesting that Mr. Barnick eliminate =he north dock and upgrade the west dock where this required space is available. This site plan would also be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission.

Sir: Please accept this letter as a request to enter into an "Exclusive Negotiation Agreement", on the aforementioned property, with a term of 90 days. I have attached a copy of my preliminary budget, site plan and concept drawing for your review. Based on my investigation and appraisal of similiar properities, the fair value of the redeveloped property would be $227,000.00. Taking into account the $202,895.00 redevelopment costs, my total acquisition cost of existing property and the SooLine property could no% exceed $24,105.00 to make this a viable project. I have done preliminary investigation into required financing and forsee no problems. The completion of this project would have-to be no later than August, 1995, so as not to impact my existing lease. I am willing to enter into a purchase agreement, and supply earnest money at the appropriate time. Thank you for your patience, I am looking forward to working with you, Mr. Hentges and the council.

J~g RE: Barnick Development Agreement Dear Pat: Enclosed for consideration by the Columbia Heights city council and HRA is a copy of the agreement among the ciD', the HRA and Robert and Priscilla Barnick. In essence, the deal among the parties is as follows: The city agrees to sell the property to the HRA for $60,000 cash and take a note from the HRA for the additional $60,000. The note will be repaid by the HRA without interest from tax increment generated by the project. 2. The HRA agrees to sell the property to Barnick for $60,000. Barnick agrees to renovate and construct an addition to the existing structure on the property. Barnick agrees to sign an assessment agreement establishing a minimum market value upon completion of $227,000. This will be in effect through 2011. After using increment to reimburse the city for the cost of the property and itself for its administrative expenses, the HRA will use any additional increment to reimburse Bamick for specified costs. Barnick will be required to show that these costs were actually incurred and were reasonable. This will be a revenue obligation only, and the HRA will not be required to reimburse those costs if there is insufficient increment. If you have 'any questions or comments regarding this agreement, please feel free to give me a call. ~Ro~nal~'d RHB:c~ THIRD DRAFT 6-23-95 CONTRACT FOR PRIVATE DEVELOpMI~IT BY AND AMONG THE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY IN AND FOR THE CITY OF COL1/MRIA HEIGHTS, MINNESOTA, THE CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS, MINNESOTA AND ROBERT C.

Assessment Agm~menta. An authority may enter into a written assessment agreement with any person establishing a minimum market value of land, existing improvements, or improvementa to be constructed in a district, if the property is owned or will be owned by the person. The minimum market value established by an assessment agreement may be fixed, or increase or decrease in later years from the initial minimum market value. If an a~i-eement is fully executed before July 1 of an assessment year, the market value as provided under the agreement must be used by the county or local assessor as the taxable market value of the property for that assessment. Agt-eements executed on or after July 1 of an assessment year become effective for assessment purposes in the following assessment year. An assessment agreement terminates on the earliest of the date on which conditions in the assessment agreement for termination are satisfied, the termination date specified in the agreement, or the date when tax increment is no longer paid to the authority under section 469.176, subdivision 1. The assessment agreement shall be presented to the county assessor, or city assessor having the powers of the county assessor, of the jurisdiction in which the tax increment financing district and the property that is the subject of the agreement is located. The assessor shall review the plans and specifications for the improvements to be constructed, review the market value previously assigned to the land upon which the improvements are to be constructed and, so long as the minimum market value contained in the assessment agreement appears, in the judgment of the assessor, to be a reasonable estimate, shall execute the following certification upon the agreement: The undersigned assessor, being legally responsible for the assessment of the above described property, certifies that the market values assigned to the land and improvements are reasonable. The assessment agreement shall be filed for record and recorded in the office of the county recorder or the registrar of titles of each county where the real estate or any part thereof is situated. After the agreement becomes effective for assessment purposes, the assessor shall value the property under section 273.11, except that the market value assigned shall not be less than the minimum market value established by the assessment agreement. The assessor may assign a market value to the property in excess of the minimum market value established by the assessment agreement. The owner of the property may seek, through the exercise of administrative and legal remedies, a reduction in market value for property tax purposes, but no city assessor, county assessor, county auditor, board of review, board of equalization, commissioner of revenue, or court of this state shall grant a reduction of the market value below the minimum market value established by the assessment agreement during the term of the agreement filed of record regardless of actual market values which may result from incomplete construction of improvements, destruction, or diminution by any cause, insured or uninsured, except in the case of acquisition or reacquisition of the property by a public entity. Recording an assessment agreement constitutes notice of the agreement to anyone who acquires any interest in the land or improvements that is subject to the assessment agreement, and the agreement is binding upon them.

Read|ng of 0rdTnance No. 1301 ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT BY: Le'3nard M. Olson DATE: July 5, 1995 CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: BY: ..~' ~.~ DATE: Juvenile crime and victimization is known to decrease with curfew enforcement. Past practice of curfew enforcement has been surpassed with the opening of the Fridley "drop off" center of which our department is now permitted to participate. Officers now are able to take unauthorized youth from our streets and drop them at the center. The center has created a new incentive because of its convenience. To further police-community efforts, the talk of a universal curfew ordinance developed metro wide attention. The concept of every community having identical curfew laws provides law enforcement an edge as well as sending a message to the youth who violate curfew laws. The proposed Columbia Heights universal curfew ordinance is a duplicate of what other communities have already enacted. Our present ordinance is antiquated and definitely in need of revision. The passage of the new ordinance provides the following curfew hours: Under 16 years: 10 P.M. to 5 A.M., weekday nights 11 P.M. to 5 A.M., Fridays and Saturdays 16 and 17 years: 11 P.M. to 5 A.M., weekday nights 12:00 midnight to 5 A.M., Fridays and Saturdays The first reading of Ordinance No. 1301 was held June 26, 1995. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the second reading of the ordinance, there being ample copies available to the public. RECO~NDED MOTION: Move to Adopt Ordinance No. 1301, Ordinance Regarding Curfews. 95-199 COUNCIL ACTION: ORDINANCE NO. 1301 BEING AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 853, CHAPTER 10, ARTICLE III, SECTION 3 OF THE COLUMBIA HEIGHTS CITY CODE IN ITS ENTIRETY, ENTITLED "CURFEW" AND ADOPTING A NEW CHAPTER 10, ARTICLE III, SECTION 3.

The fact that said child, unaccompanied by parents, guardian or other person having legal custody is found upon any street, alley or public place between 9:30 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. of the following day, shall be prima facia evidence that said child has violated the provisions of this section, and that no reasonable excuse exists therefore. 10.303(2) No person under the age of 18 years and over the age of 14 years shall be present on any street, avenue, alley, parks or other public place in the City between the hours of 12:00 midnight and 5:00 a.m. of the following day.

At the same time, the crimes committed by and against juveniles have become more violent. A significant percentage of juvenile crime occurs during curfew hours. Because of their lack of maturity and experience, juveniles 'are particularly susceptible to becoming victims of older perpetrators. The younger the person is, the more likely he or she is to be a victim of crime. While parents have the primary responsibility to provide for the safety and welfare of juveniles, Columbia Heights also has a substantial interest in the safety and welfare of juveniles. Moreover, the City of Columbia Heights has an interest in preventing juvenile crime, promoting parental supervision, and providing for the well being of the general public. An updated and enforceable curfew ordinance will reduce juvenile victimization and crime and will advance public safety, health, and general welfare. 10.303(2) DEFINITIONS "Juvenile" means a person under the age of eighteen (18).

FIRST CHOICE HOMES, INC. BY: Its: 1814 Northdale Boulevard Coon Rapids, MN 55448 EXHIBIT A Lots 12 and 13, Block 1 Sheffield's Second Subdivision PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION SPECIAL MEETING - MINUTES JUNE 27, 1995 PAGE 1 The special meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission of June 27, 1995 was called to order at 8:00 p.m. Members present were Paulson, Fowler, Larson, Peterson and Szurek. Also present were Tina Goodroad (Zoning/Grant Coordinator), and Jim Hoeft (representing the City Attorney's office). NEW BUSINESS: Petitions, letters and requests. mo Public Hearing Variance Case #9506-25 Hillcrest Development 550 N.E. 39th Avenue Columbia Heights, Mn. Tina Goodroad presented the request of Scott Tankenoff of Hillcrest Development for a variance to allow the number of required parking spaces to be installed over an extended period of time at 550 N.E. 39th Avenue as determined by the City. She explained that the request would be to allow Hillcrest Development to not be required to provide the parking that is currently required by the Parking Section of the Zoning Ordinance but to designate a green area north of their building as possible future parking as needed by a new tenant or as determined necessary by the City. The reason is that there is sufficient parking area to accommodate the existing tenants as the tenants are all low profile businesses' that do not generate the need for the full required amount of parking. Mr. Tankenhoff provided a site plan showing the ex. isting parking and the new parking areas to be developed and an interior layout of the structure. Ms. Goodroad informed the Commission that the building at 550 N.E. 39th Avenue is the former Honeywell facility and is a total of 91,760 square feet in size. There are currently six different tenants with a mix of manufacturing and warehouse uses. She stated that Mr. Tankenhoff estimated that 80 % of the building is used for warehouse type uses which would be approximately 73,408 square feet. The other 20% are manufacturing type uses at about 18,352 square feet. Ms. Goodroad stated that, according to the existing parking ordinance, the manufacturing uses would require a total of 50 spaces while the warehouse uses would require a total of 82 parking spaces totaling 132 required parking spaces. The site plan indicates 53 parking spaces currently provided with an additional 71 planned. There would be considerable green area that could be used for additional parking if necessary. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION SPECIAL MEETING - MINUTES JUNE 27, 1995 PAGE 2 Ms. Goodroad informed the Commission that Hillcrest is requesting the variance to allow them to potentially sell off portions of their property. She explained that they have enough land to accommodate a new industrial company and also sell some land to Rayco Construction so that they may expand and have an off street parking area. If Hillcrest would be required to provide all the required parking spaces up front with the sale of some of their property, it would be impossible for them to sell any property. They are requesting that the City allow them to sell some land with the understanding that land set aside for parking would be utilized as parking if the City required it and/or a new tenant needed more parking than what they are already providing. She indicated that Hillcrest does have a purchase agreement pending with Rayco Construction and a prospective industrial company, Agro-K. Agro-K will only have a total of 25-30 employees for the proposed new building. Hillcrest is willing to sign any required legal document requiring a portion of land be set aside and designated as parking and that the parking would be installed when and/or if the City deemed necessary. Ms. Goodroad stated that a new parking ordinance is being proposed by Staff which will make this variance unnecessary due to the new requirements. Commissioner Larson asked Mr. Tankenoff about the removal of a portion of the quonset hut and whether that would allow for access to the rear parking. Mr. Tankenoff responded that twenty feet would be removed from that area and the end of the building reconstructed with access doors to allow for better flow for vehicles through that area of the parking lot. Dominic Diaz of 4070 N.E. 7th Street was present to question provisions for handicap access. Mr. Tankenoff stated that handicap parking spaces are provided on the east and west sides of the building with a ramp as indicated on the site plan. He stated that if was is currently provided is not sufficient, additional handicap access and parking spaces will be provided. Marlaine Szurek asked the City Attorney for his direction regarding this request. Attorney Hoeft stated that the current parking requirements could not be amended in a time frame viable for the Hillcrest project. The current parking requirements do not state a time frame as to when the required parking spaces must be completed. He felt the current ordinance requirements were unreasonable. He stated that a separate legal document agreeing that, within the City's sole discretion, the applicant would be able to install any number of parking spaces the City felt were necessary within and up to the existing code number and that installation would have to take place within a certain time frame. Within that time frame, it could be possible that the City could have completed its review of the parking requirements and complete any amendments. If the Hillcrest project complied with the new parking requirements, then the variance would no longer be necessary. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION SPECIAL MEETING - MINUTES JUNE 27, 1995 PAGE 3 Motion by Paulson, seconded by Peterson, to recommend to the City Council the approval of the requested variance to allow a certain portion of the required parking spaces to be installed over a specific time frame conditioned upon the execution of a subsequent agreement between the City and the applicant for the provision of additional parking spaces to be dedicated up to the required Ordinance amount based on the hardship of the existing parking ordinance. Roll Call: All Ayes. *THIS ITEM TO APPEAR ON THE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA OF JULY 10, 1995. C STAFF REPORTS. Ms. Goodroad presented a draft of the proposed parking ordinance amendments to Section 9.116(4) of the Zoning Ordinance. She stated that the changes only affect manufacturing, fabricating or processing uses, office space in Industrial zoned areas and warehouse uses. The changes are proposed to assist any new industrial companies, such as Agro-K, and all existing industrial business owners. She informed the Commission that Staff has had numerous discussions with business owners eager to add-on and expand their business but are unable to do so because of the constraints placed on them by the existing parking ordinance. She indicated that there are a number of companies that have a maximum of 15 to 20 employees with few customers visiting on a monthly basis. She would like to amend the ordinance to consider the number of employees when calculating required parking instead of just square footage of the tenant space. She felt that the proposed changes would greatly assist existing business expansion and help allow new industrial growth and increase the tax base. Commissioner Paulson asked how many complaints have been received regarding the lack of' parking. The complaints received were basically those regarding the parking on the street by employees and customers of certain businesses whose lots were full or lacked ample off-street parking. Commissioner Larson stated that, during the review process and consideration of amending the parking requirements, the Commission and the City must remember that the use of properties is subject to change and that future development and use must be considered. Care must be exercised to not over-simplify the requirements. Scott Smith of 450 N.E. 38th Avenue was present to state that the current parking requirements are too restrictive and felt that the proposal to utilize both square footage and the use was going in the right direction. PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION SPECIAL MEETING - MINUTES JUNE 27, 1995 PAGE 4 Darrell Smith of 4017 Madison Street, and father of Scott Smith, addressed the sale of the building and property at 500 N.E. 38th Avenue and voiced his displeasure in how the sale has played out given the fact that his son had attempted to purchase the property but was not successful. He wanted some answers as to how and why the current agreement evolved. Staff directed him to the City Manager. After further discussion of areas that could possibly benefit from amending the parking requirements, it was the contention of the Commission that this item be tabled for further discussion at the next scheduled meeting. Motion by Larson, seconded by Peterson, to table action of the proposed changes to Section 9.116(4) of the Parking Section of the Zoning Ordinance until the July 11, 1995 meeting. Roll Call: All Ayes. Motion by Larson, seconded by Fowler, to adjourn the meeting at 9:00 p.m. Roll Call: All Ayes.

Section 9.116(4) (x) of the Zoning Ordinance pertaining to parking requires, for warehouses, at least one (1) parking space for each four hundred (400) square feet of floor area (gross) up to 6,000 square feet plus one (1) parking space for each 1,000 square feet over 6,000 square feet. Section 9.116(4) (bb) of the Zoning Ordinance requires manufacturing, fabricating or processing of a product to provide four (4) off-street parking spaces plus one (1) space for each four hundred (400) square feet of floor area (gross). The reason for the request is to allow Hillcrest to add some new parking, but designate a green area north of their building as possible future parking as needed by a new tenant or as determined necessary by the City. The building at 550 N.E. 39th Avenue is a total of 91,760 square feet. There are currently six different tenants with a mix of manufacturing and warehouse uses. About 80% of the building is used for warehouse and the other 20% are manufacturing type uses. According to the existing parking ordinance, the manufacturing uses would require a total of 50 spaces while the warehouse use would require a total of 82 spaces totaling 132 required parking spaces. The site plan shows 53 spaces being provided with an additional 71 planned. The tenants in the building have a range of 3 to 8 employees with only one company having up to 23 on a major shift. These companies have very few customers. Hillcrest is requesting this variance to help them be able to sell off portions of their property. If they are required to provide all required parking up front with the sale of their property, it would be impossible for them to sell. They are willing to sign any required legal document requiring a portion of land be set aside and designated as parking and that the parking would be installed when and/or if the city deemed necessary. The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommend the approval of the variance. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve the request for a variance to allow a certain portion of the required parking spaces to be installed over a specific time frame conditioned upon the execution of a subsequent agreement between the City and the applicant for the provision of additional parking spaces to be dedicated up to the required ordinance amount based on the hardship of the existing parking ordinance.

This agreement is by and between Anoka County, the cities of Columbia Heights, Fridley, Hilltop, and Independent School Districts #13 and #14. S.A.C.C.C. has operated for nearly three years. During that time, it has operated essentially without the powers and controls of the Joint Powers Agreement. Recently, S.A.C.C.C. spun off a subsidiary organization that is responsible for the Values First Program. That group entered into a one-half time contract with an individual to assist in coordinating the Values Program. The funding for the program came from a series of grants and foundations that include the Allina/Health One organization. In part, the Joint Powers Agreement is necessary, if foundations and grant agencies are to continue to fund programs such as the Values First effort. As I mentioned in the City Manager's report, S.A.C.C.C. also made application for a number of grants, including the Juvenile Justice Grant Program. The existence of the Joint Powers Agreement is not only essential to facilitate the administration of the grants, but in many cases, a collaborative effort under a Joint Powers Agreement will even rate higher in the grant process. The Joint Powers Agreement was reviewed by the various legal staffs and is in acceptable order. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to Approve the Joint Powers Agreement for Southern Anoka County Community Consortium ("SoA.C.C.C") and Authorize the Mayor and City Manager to Enter Into the Same.

The SACCC, at its June 6, 1995 meeting, recommended approval of this Joint Powers Agreement with the following two clarifications: It appears that not all SACCC entities' existing insurance policies will cover their participation in the Joint Powers Agreement. Therefore, Article IV, Section 12, allows for the purchase of insurance if deemed necessary. We are moving forward to develop the necessary liability insurance to cover all entities participating in the Joint Powers Agreement and the related SACCC activities. The cost is estimated at approximately $300 to $400 annually. Funding for insurance is available in the current budget. Article IV, Section 5, was revised to state that the Board shall annually appoint a fiscal agent from among its members to sign orders, checks and drafts. As always, should you have any questions regarding this Joint Powers Agreement, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Purchase ~,A, ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT POLICE flu., BY: ~a~d M. Olson DATE: June 21, 1995 CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: DATE:~ The Council previously approved the weapons upgrade for the police department from shotgun to 9mm "MP5" carbines. The very first MP5 acquisition was the result of a trade-in of several old departmental guns and numerous confiscated weapons. This weapon was purchased with the full automatic capability. This machine gun capability, as we recently learned, carries a mandatory training requirement that minimizes liability exposure to the City. The required training is that each officer must requalify a minimum of four times annually with at least 200 rounds of ammunition each. This is quite an expense for a feature we do not need. Without degrading the weapons capability, several options were discussed and researched by our police department firearms staff. The option to replace the trigger mechanism to provide the semi-automatic capability was found to be cost prohibitive. This finding led to the option of selling the entire weapon and repurchasing another with the options suitable for our use. This option became a reality when the Anoka County Sheriff's Office SWAT unit agreed to purchase it from our department for virtually the same as what we originally purchased it for. The Police Department, therefore, requests permission to sell our existing fully automatic MP5 carbine to the Anoka County Sheriff's SWAT unit for $1,000. Receipt of these funds to be added to the police capital outlay existing budget for the repurchase of four semi-automatic MP5 carbines priced at $990 each, totaling $3,960, funding of which would be available. RECOMMENDED MOTION: "Move to authorize the Columbia Heights Police Department to sell their existing fully automatic MP5 carbine to the Anoka County Sheriff's SWAT unit and place received funds with presently available budgeted funds for the purchase of four semi-automatic MP5 carbines from Streicher Guns in Plymouth, Minnesota, for the purchase price of $990/each, totaling $3,960 and that the Mayor and City Manager are authorized to enter into an agreement for same." 95-182 COUNCIL ACTION: CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS 590 40th Avenue N.

Information about the equipment is attached. The equipment includes a software package to lay out the sign and then cut the vinyl letters and graphics up to 12" high. The advantages of owning this equipment includes timely and less expensive manufacture of signs. For example, a street name sign blank costs about $5.00; purchase of a lettered street name sign is $25.00. Currently it is impractical to manufacture the signs in-house because cutting and layout of the letters takes up to 1 hour per sign. Other uses for the equipment include specialty signs and stencils.

On May 17, 1995, the Office of Management and Budget published Circular A-87, "Cost Principles for State, Local and Indian Tribal Governments". The new rules are detailed and complex. The Finance Department is responsible for the accounting of Federal grant monies received by both the City and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority. Neither the City nor the HRA has any staff who are knowledgeable in the area of Federal grant accounting or, in particular, Circular A-87. Management Concepts, Inc. is offering a two-day course designed to provide section by section analysis of the Circular. Participants will learn about requirements, impact, exceptions and ambiguous provisions and practical advice about how to assure that federal programs bear their "fair share" of costs triggered by the presence of a grant award. This course is offered at several locations throughout the country in July-September 1995. The least costly in terms of travel costs is the course in Denver, Colorado, on August 3 and 4, with a total projected cost of $1,100 ($350, registration; $750, travel & lodging). This course has not been budgeted for; however, there are some monies in the Finance Department budget that could be allocated for this. It is staff's recommendation that due to the amount of Federal funding received by the HRA that the cost be divided between HRA and the City Finance Department. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the attendance of June Johnston, Assistant Finance Director, at OMB Circular A-87 Course on August 3 and 4, 1995, and furthermore, that related expenses be reimbursed from the Finance Department and HRA department budgets.

Funds for the animal control services are budgeted for in the Police Department.

McClanahan ~3~: ~~"-TE'''?''''D'''~' NO' i~ e DATE: 7/3/95 . On February 21, 1995, the Council authorized staff to seek bids for a self-powered lawn sweeper using tractor #283 as a trade-in. Bids were opened on March 30, 1995. Bid forms were sent to four companies with only one company responding. MTI Distributing submitted a total bid of $7,113.13. The bid tabulation is attached. At the meeting of May 30,1 995, the City Council tabled the purchase of the self-powered turf sweeper and directed staff to seek informal quotations on similar types of equipment. The general feeling of the Council was that even though the turf sweeper is a specialized piece of equipment, approval of a single bid without any cost comparison would be inappropriate. Several companies were contacted and the cost comparison information is attached. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to award the bid for a new self-propelled, high dump turf sweeper to MTI Distributing the low, qualified, responsible bidder in the amount of $7,113.13 to be paid from the Capital Equipment Fund; and, furthermore, to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into an agreement for the same.

The draft will be forwarded this week to the City Council for your review and discussion at a future work session. 4) BOARD AND COMMISSION DISPOSITION The Council recently received the resignation of Walter Walburg from the Insurance Commission. The status of the Insurance Commission along with Science and Technology and Merit Commission should be evaluated over the next few months to determine their ongoing purpose and role in the citizen advisory process. 5) NEI GYM RENTAL Attached please find information from Randy Quale concerning NEI notification of gym rental fees. It is recommended that NEI officials be invited to a future work session to further discuss their proposal. 6) MHFA GRANT PROGRAMS The City has received notification of the August 24, 1995, deadline for MHFA Housing Grant/Loan Programs. City Staff is preparing a number of grant scenarios to present to the City Council at a future work session. The housing study along with the consultant's analysis of multi-family and neighborhood revitalization programs will be presented at that time. On a related item, City officials met with Anoka County and their housing consultant to discuss possible uses of a county-wide HRA levy for localized housing programs. It appears that the levy if approved in the individual cities would be used for either the development of additional senior rental housing opportunities or single family housing rehabilitation. As the Council may recall, the County HRA can only levy approximately $72,000 in Columbia Heights with approval and consent of the City. This levy would be in addition to any levy that our current HRA would levy. The county levy concept is currently being discussed by a group of policy makers/City Council/HRA commissioners from the individual Anoka County cities. HRA Commissioner Bruce Nawrocki represents Columbia Heights. Additionally, the Anoka County HRA is working with a group of staff from Anoka County cities of which I represent the City of Columbia Heights. 7) POLICE CHIEF APPOINTMENT PROCESS STATUS Forty-four applications were received by the Civil Service Commission for the Police Chief appointment. Civil Service Commission has pre-screened the applicants to fifteen semi-finalists who will take the written in-basket exam on Saturday, July 15. That group will be narrowed to seven or eight finalists who will be administered an oral interview by a board consisting of the Civil Service Commissioners, an outside City Manager, and two law enforcement administrators. It is hoped that after initial reference screening, the Mayor will receive a certified list of three candidates for appointment by August 12th. The Civil Service Commission has asked that the Mayor further interview the three final candidates and conduct an additional background check. 8) ANOKA COUNTY POLICE RANGE If you are interested in touring the Anoka County police range, please contact Leonard Olson. He is in the process of arranging a departmental shoot, whereby the Councilmembers can tour the range and review the shooting demonstration. 9) JUVENILE JUSTICE GRANT APPLICATION Attached please find notification that the City did not receive our Juvenile Justice Grant to fund a juvenile diversion program. Though we were not successful in this application, we have undertaken the first juvenile diversion effort under the guidance of Acting Chief Olson and Sgt. Bill Roddy. We expect this program to be a key component in swiftly addressing problems with first t/me juvenile offenders. Though we were not successful in this grant, a joint application submitted by Southern Anoka County Community Consortium has made the final cut. This grant will further support Fridley's juvenile curfew program and could lead to setting up another satellite operation in Columbia Heights. If this grant is funded, it could greatly reduce the City's cash participation or Fridley's 1996 program. 10) LABOR CONTRACT SETTLEMENTS Tentative settlements of the 1995-96 Labor Agreements have been reached with the Police Officers, Police Sergeants, and Fire Fighters. Wage and fringe benefit adjustments are consistent with those for other employees for 1995-96. These items will be placed on the July 24th Council Meeting agenda for approval and council ratification of the contracts. 11) REPORTS, CORRESPONDENCE, AND INFORMATION Attached please find the following: Rice Creek Watershed District Report of 1994 Activities 1995 Law Summaries. cb 95/53 COLUMBIA HEIGHTS PUBLIC LIBRARY b20 - 40lb AVENUE bi.

J u n COLUMBIA HEIGHTS POLICE DEPARTMENT TO: FROM: SUBJECT: DATE: Mayor and City Council Members L/Jard'~lOlson, Acting Police Chief Operational Report, June, 1995 July 5, 1995 I. Events/Accomplishments A. The Fridley Police curfew program became a reality for our officers when we received permission and funding to participate in their program. The first night our officers began the program, we had eleven arrests. B. The week of June 12 was the summer law enforcement training shoot at the Anoka County outdoor range. This training is invaluable for our employees. The Jamboree and parade was the mark of another summer in Columbia Heights, and the review for the community fireworks was high. The parade would have gone unblemished except for a mishap at 40th and Van Buren where a youngster was clipped by another youth riding a bicycle. The child was taken to the hospital with minor injuries. II. Projects/Goals The community policing programs continue to take shape with another community picnic held on June 20. Residents from Sheffield, Mathaire, and Innsbruck neighborhoods were invited for food and fellowship at Kordiak Park. I was pleased with the turnout and the welcome received. The residents who attended were able to meet with police one on one and rekindle friendships with fellow neighbors. I accompanied community police officers to the bi-monthly landlord meeting June 27. It was well attended and we had an opportunity to fully explain the Crime Free Multi-housing Program that is coming off our drawing boards as another segment of community policing. Our officers who are the trainers in this new program, are excited and already preparing for the first sessions to be held throughout the month of September. The Civil Service Commission has completed their testing procedure for the position of police officer. The certified names of the individuals were provided to me. The Mayor and I have scheduled interviews with the candidates to narrow down the pick to fill the open position. I have been in touch with Janet Reno's office in Washington, D.C., as she wants to attend the new "Fast Cops" sweating-in ceremony, if she is available. III. Issues/Problems A. The June crime statistics monthly report will be delayed slightly due to office staff vacation schedules. With the purchase of the "Your Speed Is" device, I have had the unit out at various locations. The summer months and youth activities have made it difficult to get our cadets and speed board unit out as often as it could be. Our community policing staff is working out the details to supplement the placement and operation of the unit. 95-200 Columbia Heights Fire Department To: From: Subject: Date: Pat Hentges, City Manager Charles Kewatt, Fire Chief Operation Report July 5, 1995 Operation Report June 1995 A.

FY1995 CDBG/HOME rehabilitation program funds, which are expected to be available shortly, should be adequate to complete about 10 additional rehab projects. Scott McKinney is currently working on 2 deferred loans (grants) through the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) Deferred Loan Program for the next funding phase. He will also receive MHFA training on administering the new phase of Deferred Loans on July 31st. "SERVICE IS OUR BUSINESS" EQUAL OPPORTUNI-i-Y EMPLOYER THE CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE ON THE BASIS OF DISABILITY IN EMPLOYMENT OR THE PROVlSICN OF SERVICES HRA MONTHLY REPORT JULY 5, 1995 PAGE 2 CITY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM (CDBG)/HOME PROGRAM: Anoka County is still finalizing the FY1995 CDBG and HOME Programs. Due to a change of control of the programs from Anoka County to the Anoka County HRA there have been delays in getting the contracts out to the communities on the CDBG Program. Alyce Osborne expects the concerns to be resolved shortly and that we should be able to start our FY1995 projects as of July 1. Our FY1995 CDBG is expected to include $120,000 for Neighborhood Revitalization, $118,000(+) for Housing Rehabilitation, and $21,662 for public service grants to SACA, Senior Outreach for Columbia Heights, Alexandra House and Hot Meals for Shut-Ins. Final action on the HOME Program is expected shortly. Under the HOME Program, the city is scheduled to receive $40,000 for renovation of the 4-Plex at 4607 Tyler Street N.E. and $60,000 for purchase of another marginal duplex in the Sheffield Neighborhood and redevelopment of the lot with a single family house for a lower income family. MULTI-USE REDEVELOPMENT PLAN (MURP) PROJECT: Purchase of 3725 5th St. N.E. from the C.P. Rail (Soo Line Railroad) is in process with the City Council approved purchase agreement signed and returned to C.P. Rail. A site survey is underway by Kurth Surveying to determine the exact square footage of the site which is being purchased for $1.50 per square foot. The parcel of approximately 2,498 square feet is included in the property that is expected to be transferred to Metro Assemblies along with the City owned 500 38th Avenue N.E. During July the City Council and HRA Board of Commissioners are scheduled to consider the necessary redevelopment/TIF agreements in regard to the transfer of this property to Robert Barnick (Metro Assemblies). Staff continued work with the City Manager on a possible 30,000 square foot development by Agro-K in the 500 block of 39th Ave. N.E. A redevelopment/TIF agreement on this project may be ready for HRA Board approval on July 18. On June 27 the Planning and Zoning Commission approved a variance on parking required for the project. RENTAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM: ae Under the Section 8 Rental Assistance Program, we through the Metro HRA, assisted 161 very low income families with rental of decent, safe, and sanitary dwelling units in Columbia Heights and Hilltop through Certificates (119 families) and Vouchers (42 families). During the month work continued on transfer of 18 of the Metro HRA families to the Columbia Heights (CH) program. Staff expects to have the 18 families on the CH program with rent assistance payments made from CH as of August 1, 1995. We have over 209 families (over 114 who are residents of Columbia Heights) who have indicated interest in partici- pating in the CH program. By July 14 staff plans on sending a letter with preliminary application to all interested families. Families will then have 3 weeks in which to respond. A drawing will be held to establish placement on the two previously discussed waiting lists based on federal and local preference. Prior to issusing certificates/vouchers we will review the waiting lists and future action with the HUD Area Office. HRA ~MONTHLY REPORT JULY 5, 1995 PAGE 3 Ce HUD action on the application for 50 additional new units is expected some time this summer.

Homes Division SUBJECT: 1995 Mortgage Revenue Bond Allocation Thank you for your application for an allocation of 1995 mortgage revenue bond authority. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes § 474A.061, I have attached a list containing the amounts allotted to each applicant and this letter is to serve as your official notification of said allotments. This list is to be forwarded to the Commissioner of the Department of Finance in accordance with the statute. The process for allocating 1995 mortgage revenue bond authority has been significantly different than the process used in past years. Each applicant's final allocation was determined by applying a population-based allocation formula under statutory changes implemented during the past legislative session. Pursuant to the statute, no applicant received more than it requested by application of the population based formula. A minimum allocation of $100,000 was established under the statute. To request its allotment of bond authority from the Commissioner of the Department of Finance, each applicant must submit the specified fees and supporting documentation prescribed under statute. For applicants requesting MHFA to sell bonds on their behalf under the Minnesota City Participation Program, additional information is provided in this letter to enable this to occur. For applicants that plan to sell bonds of their own accord, we recommend that you confer with bond counsel. Should you have any questions regarding the above, please don't hesitate to contact us at (612) 296-7613 if calling from the Twin Cities metropolitan area or 1-800-657-3802 is calling from Greater Minnesota. 400 Sibley Street, Suite 300, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 (612) 296-7608 Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) (612) 297-2361 Equal Qpportunity Housing and Equal Opportunity Employment Applicant City of Albert Lea Anoka HRA Austin HRA Belle Plaine HRA Bemidji EDA Brainerd HRA Brooklyn Center EDA Brooklyn Park EDA Brown County HRA Buffalo HRA Carver County HRA ~'~lumbia Heights HR~ Crystal EDA Dakota County HRA City of Detroit Lakes City of Duluth Eden Prairie HRA Elbow Lake EDA Elk River HRA Faribault County HRA City of Fregus Falls Fridley HRA City of Glencoe City of Hopkins Hutchinson HRA Lake City EDA LeSueur County HRA Little Falls HRA Mankato HRA City of Maple Grove City of Maple Lake City of Moorhead Morrison County HRA City of Mounds View New Hope EDA Northwest Minnesota Multi-County HRA OImsted County HRA Owatonna HRA City of Perham Plymouth HRA Red Wing HRA Rice County HRA Richfield HRA Robbinsdale EDA City of Sauk Rapids Scott County HRA Original Request Maximum $600,000 $3,000,000 Maximum $500,000 $1,000,000 Maximum Maximum $2,500,000 $2,000,000 $4,000,000 $2,000,000 Maximum $10,000,000 $1,000,000 $4,000,000 $1,000,000 Maximum Maximum $2,500,000 $900,000 $800,000 $750,000 $1,500,000 $740,00O Maximum $2,500,000 $250,000 $1,000,000 $750,000 $300,000 $2,000,000 $250,000 $750,000 $750,000 $2,000,000 $2,500,000 $1,200,000 $400,000 $500,000 $2,000,000 $3,000,000 $1,250,000 Maximum Maximum $4,000,000 Final Allocation $379,635 $361459 $453 308 $100 000 $230 800 $258 776 $589,984 $1,201,866 $564,469 $156,692 $1,090,891 $392,847~ $492,264 $6,175,864 $150,076 $1,765,590 $877,584 $100,000 $256,501 $345,000 $257,804 $584,898 $100,000 $339,231 $247,300 $100,000 $489,948 $154,687 $649,969 $75O,O00 $100,000 $681,047 $25O,O0O $260,761 $449,896 $1,701 491 $2,341 431 $415 675 $1 O0 000 $500 000 $321 759 $1,057,063 $734,829 $297,959 $182,684 $1,262,388 June 8 June 12 July 7 July 8 Implementation Schedule 1995 Minnesota City Participation Program (All dates are approximate) Applications Due Allocations determined by statutory population formula Executed Contracts, 1% Application Deposits and Processing Fees Due to MHFA Fees and Allocation Plan forwarded' to Mn Dept. of Finance July 10 July 20 July 25 Dept. of Finance issues authority to MHFA to complete on behalf issuance of mortgage revenue bonds MHFA completes bond sale to fund 1995 MCPP MHFA forwards marketing materials to participating cities and lenders July 25 July 25 Statewide press release announces program Program begins, funds are made available at all lender locations July 25-- August I Local press releases through newspapers and radio August 31 Deadline for fees from cities receiving an advance from MHFA September 15 November 25 January 25, 1996 Dept. of Finance returns 1% application deposits Individual City allocation period ends, all unused funds are "collapsed" into a single, statewide pool Program ends, final day for borrower loan reservations TO: FROM: PATRICK HENTGES CITY MANAGER KATHYJEAN YOUNG /)/~2 ACTING CITY ENGINEER CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS Public Works Department SUBJECT: OPERATIONAL REPORT - JUNE DATE: JULY 6, 1995 SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENTS General Responded to 105 Gopher State One-Call requests.

Special Election of July 1 lth: Preparations are going well for the special general election to be held on July 1 lth. It is anticipated that this will go equally as well as the primary did. Filing for City Council offices: The filings for City Council offices opened on July 5th, and will close at 4:45 p.m. on July 18th. This year, we have significantly modified the filing affidavit, to allow candidates to file without being present in City Hall, and to enable them to file when the City and Deputy Clerk are not present in City Hall. The form and procedures that were used in the past required either the City Clerk or Deputy City Clerk to be present when the candidate filed. This change in procedure and form should make it more efficient for candidates to file for the various positions. I have attached a copy of the new affidavit to this report for your information.

Columbia Heights, MN 55421-3878 JUN 14 1995 MANAGER CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHT~, June 13, 1995 Dear Mr. Hentges: I herewith tender my resignation as a member of the Insurance Commission of Columbia Heights, and as its Chair person. I retired from the Insurance business two years ago and am no longer active in the field. After closing my office in the Heights, I moved to Chisago City. I am enjoying retirement here, tending my garden and orchard, and am now spending my winters in Florida. I enjoyed serving the people of Columbia Heights as Insurance Commission Chairman. In the past, there was a very active Commission, especially during the few years of self insurance, however, under the present system the need for the Commission has greatly diminished. Thank you and the city for the opportunity of serving in this position. Sincerely, Walter H. Walburg ~ Chair, Insurance Commiss~ffn MEMO TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: CITY OF COLUMBIA RECREATION HEIGHTS Patrick Hentges, City Manager Randy Quale, Recreation Director June 29, 1995 NEI College of Technology Request for Gym Rental Fees On May 30, 1995 I met with Chuck Dettmann and Harry Wilcox of NEI College of Technology. During this meeting, Mr. Wilcox informed me that starting this fall, NEI intends to charge rental fees for the usage of their gymnasiums. Gym rental fees would be charged to both the City of Columbia Heights and ISD #13 programs. The fees would be used to offset NEI's heating, water, sewer and custodial costs. The proposed fees are $7.90 per hour for the west gym, $4.10 per hour for the east gym, and a $10.00 per day custodial fee. Attached is fee breakdown (provided by NEI) for the heating, water and sewer costs. Based on our previous years' usage, listed below are the Recreation Department's anticipated rental fees for 1995-96: 300 hours use of NEI west gym at $7.90/hour 300 hours use of NEI east gym at $4.10/hour 96 days of use NEI gyms at $10.00/day $2,370.00 1,230.00 960.00 TOTAL RENTAL FEES - $4,560.00 During our meeting, Mr. Dettmann indicated that NEI would be willing to "barter" on the proposed rental fees. Mr. Dettmann mentioned that the rental fees could be reduced or eliminated if the City would provide the following services: 1o Provide snow plowing services for NEI's parking lots. 2. Patch and stripe NEI's parking lots. 3. Provide use of the City's "cherry picker" Restrict parking to one hour in front of NEI on north side of 41st Street. In addition to the gym rental fees, Mr. Wilcox informed me that NEI's gym floors were in need of resurfacing and that NEI would like the City to split the cost with them. Enclosed is a quotation for resurfacing the gym floor totalling $1,054.00. I suggested to Mr. Wilcox that ISD #13 should also be asked to pitch in on the resurfacing cost. Mr. Wilcox told me that he'd consider discussing this with ISD #13. Page - 2 At the end of our meeting, I informed Mr. Dettmann and Mr. Wilcox that I would forward NEI's gym rental fee proposal to the City for consideration. NEI's gym rental fee proposal was discussed at the June 28, 1995 Park and Recreation Commission. While no official action was taken at the Commission meeting, several Commission members expressed their displeasure with NEI's request. Council member Ruettimann instructed me to have the City Manager place this issue on the agenda for an upcoming City Council work session. Council member Ruettimann mentioned that perhaps Mr. Dettmann and Mr. Wilcox should be invited to discuss this issue with the City Council. If you have any questions on this matter please see me.

MINNESOTA HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY HOUSING NOTICE OF FUND AVAILABILITY REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS WITH AID,~. PROGRAM The Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) announces the availability of Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) grant funds to devise long- term comprehensive strategies for meeting the housing needs of persons with Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) or related diseases, such as HIV, and their families. The program authorizes entitlement grants and competitively awarded grants for housing assistance services. The Housing Opportunities for Persons With AIDS Program (HOPWA) was authorized through the HUD Housing and Community Development Act of 1992. $1,000,000 The HOPWA funds were awarded to the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and the City of Minneapolis in 1994-95. The HIV Housing Assessment and Planning Project began in April 1994. Under the auspices of the MDH and the direction of the Coalition for Housing for Persons with HIV (Coalition), the Assessment sought to define and quantify the housing needs throughout the state for persons with HIV infection and to develop a five year plan for addressing those needs. The information from this process is available in the HIV Housing Needs Assessment and Five Year Plan (five year plan). The grant period for these awards is three (3) years from the date of the award. Continuation of funding for this program is dependent on the availability of state and federal housing funds. Additional AIDS specific housing funds are not certain. HOPWA funds awarded for supportive programs and services will enter into a Grant Agreement with the MDH. HOPWA funds awarded for housing programs will enter into a Commitment Agreement with MHFA. Eligible applicants include natural persons, limited-profit and non-profit entities, Minnesota units of local government, Public Housing Authorities, and/or community based organizations. 400 Sibley Street, Suite 300, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 (612) 296-7608 Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) (612) 297-2361 Equal Opportunity Housing and Equal Opportunity Employment Of the estimated 3,000 people living in Minnesota with HIV/AIDS, it is estimated that 1,000 people are in need of more intensive supportive services to locate, maintain, or remain in their homes. To focus on those with increased housing needs and to target limited resources, services and programs supported with these HOPWA funds must assist Iow income and disabled persons with HIV infection including both individuals and households. Low incq~me: Individuals and families whose income does not exceed 80% of the median income for a county or metropolitan statistical area, as determined by HUD, adjusted for household size. A restriction of income level is not applicable if individuals or households are receiving housing and supportive services information only. Disal;)lecl with HIV/AIDS: At least one individual in the household must have AIDS or a related disease (which means the disease of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome or any conditions arising from HIV infection). Households may include those who are connected by law, blood or are of special significance to the individual with AIDS. o Rental Assistance: Persons receiving rental assistance or residing in rental housing, except those in short stay supported housing, must pay 30% of the family monthly gross income after adjustments. Rents must be reasonable in relation to comparative rents. Included within the three eligible participant categories (Low income, Disabled with HIV/AIDS, and Rental Assistance), the following categories of individuals and households require increased attention and are thus priority populations for HOPWA funding. Proposed housing programs and services must be culturally specific, meeting the needs of targeted communities including people of color, youth, and disabled persons. Applications targeting these priority populations will receive selection preference consideration: · Households with children. Individuals whose rental histories, pre-existing conditions, and other life circumstances increase the difficulty of accessing subsidized and fair market housing. This group includes people with mental illness, chemical dependency, and those with backgrounds that include past evictions and prison records. · People from communities of color, including African Americans, Native Americans, and Hispanics. · Adolescents and young adults between 13 and 24 years of age. · Households who are homeless or at dsk of homelessness.

MINNESOTA HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY NOTICE OF FUND AVAILABILITY REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS U IN TRU T F ND PR RAM The Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) and the Housing Trust Fund Advisory Task Force (HTFATF) announce the availability of loan funds to eligible sponsors to assist them in the development, construction, acquisition, preservation and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing, limited equity cooperative housing, and homes for ownership by Iow income persons. These funds were generated by interest earnings on real estate brokers' ;rust accounts; interest accrued on revenue bond application fees and forfeited fees; and state appropriated funds. Statewide Funds are awarded to projects in the form of a zero interest deferred loan. To encourage the long term affordability of the housing provided under this program, a twenty year repayment schedule is used. The loan must be repaid in full if the project fails to operate as affordable housing for Iow income persons during the first ten years of the loan. During the next ten years, ten percent of the loan is forgiven each year provided that the housing remains affordable for Iow income persons and families. Up to twenty percent (approximately $200,000) of the total funds available may be used for projects that are not compatible with the 20 year repayment schedule. Within the twenty' percent set aside, up to $100,000 will be available for home ownership projects. The MHFA's and the HTFATF's intent is to use this set aside of funds to encourage innovative proposals which would otherwise not be possible to fund given the 20. year use commitment. Applications submitted under the set aside will be evaluated with all applications received in response to the Request for Proposals. Eligible applicants are individuals, for-profit entities, non-profit entities, Minnesota Cities, joint power boards established by two or more cities, and Housing and Redevelopment Authorities. 400 Slbley Street, Suite 300, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 (612) 296-7608 Telecommunications Device for the Deaf ('rDD) (612) 297-2361 Equal Opportunity Housing and Equal Opportunity Employment The legislation requires that the funds from the trust fund account be used "to provide loans or grants for projects for the development, construction, acquisition, preservation, and rehabilitation of Iow income rental and limited equity cooperative housing units and homes for ownership. At least 75 percent of the rental and cooperative units in the development or all of the units funded by the housing trust fund account, must be rented to persons and families whose income does not exceed 30 percent of the median family income for the metropolitan area. Homes for ownership must be owned or purchased by persons and families whose income does not exceed 50 percent of the metropolitan area median income." (MN Statutes Sect. 462A.201 Subd. 2, as amended.) As of May 1995, 30 percent of the Minneapolis/St. Paul area median income was $15,300. It is the desire of the MHFA and the HTFATF to use the Housing Trust Fund Housing Program to encourage and support innovative approaches to housing problems which provide affordable housing with strong local support. It is expected that these funds will be used to leverage other funds or to provide the final piece of a financing package. They can be used in conjunction with other MHFA, State, or Federal programs as appropriate. The MHFA will not be accepting applications for proposals whose primary purpose is lead based paint abatement.

MINNESOTA HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY NOTICE OF FUND AVAILABILITY REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS TRANSITIONAL HOUr;lNG PROGRAM The Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) announces the availability of loan/grant funds to eligible sponsors to assist in providing safe, appropriate, and affordable housing for Iow and moderate income residents of Minnesota. The Transitional Housing Program is designed to assist eligible applicants in the construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation of residential housing for this group of persons. The Transitional Housing Program has three program options: (1) Temporary or transitional housing for individuals and families having an immediate need for housing; (2) Residential housing for migrant farmworkers; and (3) Homeless individuals and families. Ygg must select the program under which you are reauesting funds. Under the Temporary or Transitional Housing program option¢ individuals and families income cannot exceed 50% of the greater of the statewide or area median income adjusted for families of five or more. Under the Residential Housing for Migrant Farmworkers program option, housing must contain cooking, sleeping, bathroom facilities, and hot/cold running water in the same structure. Under the Homeless Individuals and Families program option, eligible applicants can apply for funds to provide housing (including SRO-type housing) for individuals and families whose incomes do not exceed thirty percent (30%) of the metropolitan area median income for a family of four adjusted for families of five or more. For all the program options, the maximum loan/grant amount may not exceed 50% of Total Development Cost with the balance of the funds coming from other sources. The Ioan/grant may not exceed $25,000 per unit. Each project funded must be operated and maintained as housing for the target population for twenty years. Funds are awarded tc projects in the form of a zero interest deferred loan. To encourage the long term affordability of the housing provided under this program, a twenty year repayment schedule is used. The loan must be repaid in full if the project fails to operate as affordable housing for Iow income persons during the f;~-st ten years of the loan. During the next ten years, ten percent of the loan is forgiven each year provided that the housing remains affordable for Iow income persons and families. 400 Sibley Street, Suite 300, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101 (612) 296-7608 Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) (612) 297-2361 Equal Opportunity Housing and Equal Opportunity Employment Statewide [Eligible Applicants: ................

Back: White Bear Lake, located in the southeast portion of the district, is one of the metro area's largest and cleanest lakes, and is used extensively for recreation. BACKGROUND ORGANIZATION The Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) was created on January 17, 1972, for the purpose of conserving and making prov­ ident use of the waters and natural resources of the area included within the District's borders. It was established by action of the Minnesota State Legislature in response to a nominating petition from Ramsey, Washington and Anoka County Boards to the Water Resources Board. Prominent among efforts by governmental and civic organizations to create the District was a study and vote of support by nine local Leagues of Women Voters. The Rice Creek watershed encompasses 201 square miles of urban and rural land and water within the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro­ politan area. Rice Creek is a multiple resource: it drains an exten­ sive area of sod and truck fallils; provides a substantial water sup­ ply source to the City of St. Paul; southwest through a chain of lakes to the Mississippi River in Fridley. The water that drains into Rice Creek and its two major tributaries, Hardwood Creek and Clearwater Creek, comes from portions of four counties-Anoka (76 sq. mi.), Hennepin (0.1 sq. mi.), Ramsey (48 sq. mi.), and Washington (77 sq. mi.). There are numerous lakes and marshes in the District with associated wet­ lands and wildlife areas, including 39 lakes with areas in excess of 100 acres. Within the District, there are 41 separate governmental units: 4 counties, 25 cities, 6 townships, 5 special-purpose districts, and the Water Commission of the City of St. Paul. RCWD coordinates activities and programs of these governmental units that impact water resources of the District. serves as a recreational resource for adjoining residences and public parks; is a natural habitat for waterfowl and other wildlife; is an open space and greenbelt resource of unique value; and an attractive locale for new develop­ ment. Rice Creek also floods along its lower reaches and is a conduit for carrying runoff to the Mississippi River at Fridley. THE GENERAL GOALS OF TIIE DISTRICT ESTAB­ USHED BY THE RCWD BOARD OF MANAGERS ARE The Board of Managers of the District is a five-member admin­ istrative board, appointed for three-year tenns by commission­ ers of three of the four Counties which make up the RCWD: two managers from Anoka County, two from Ramsey County, and one from Washington County. Hennepin County does not appoint a board member because only a very small part of the county is in the District. AS FOLLOWS: +Minimize Public Expenditures to Control Runoff •:• Improve Water Quality •:• Prevent Flooding & Erosion In late 1974, the District pre­ pared an overall water manage­ ment plan which served as its operating framework for eigh­ teen years. With the passage of the Metropolitan Surface Water Management Act, new require­ ments were set for preparing +Promote Groundwater Recharge •>Protect and Enhance Fish & Wildlife Habitat &The Board of Managers dis-Recreation charges its responsibilities +Provide for the 'Iiansition of water Management to Local Units of Government. through a process of (a) issuing permits for development that affects the quantity, quality, and watershed management plans within the Tw in Cities Metropolitan area. In compliance with this Act, the District developed its Water Resource Management Plan with input from other units of gov­ ernment and a citizen advisory group. The Plan was approved by the Board of Soil and Water Resources in 1990, amended in 1992 and 1994, and is currently in the process of being updated to guide the District through the year 2,000. Rice Creek is the principal stream of the watershed. It originates in Clear Lake just south of the City of Forest Lake and meanders velocity of water runoff within the 201 square mile area of the RCWD, and (b) undertaking pro­ jects to protect and improve the waters of the District. To fund its activities, the Board makes annual ad valorem tax levies on the four counties involved. The Board also receives grants from federal and state agencies to fund various special projects, charges fees in connection with the permit program, and for cer­ tain projects, may utilize special assessments to benefitted parties.

The District's permit program has served as the primary vehicle for the protection of drainage systems, water quality, and open spaces associated with floodplain areas. Uncompensated encroachment into floodplain areas has been nearly eliminated through review of development plans and a vigorous inspection program. Substantial improvements in lake water quality have been realized through the Long Lake/Chain of Lakes Project in the south­ western portion of the District. Large land developments have been required to provide rate control and treatment of stormwater runoff either through centralized ponding or through detention facilities incorporated within the devel­ oping area. These detention ponds have subsequently been shown to provide an effective means for reducing the degra­ dation of downstream water quality and are becoming com­ mon throughout the metropolitan area. One of the Long Lake Chain of Lakes projects. Ibis control structure was constructed at the outlet of a large wetland complex to provide wetland treatment of upstream waters from the cities of Roseville & Arden Hills. lmpoundment of the water allows the sediment to drop out, and phosphorous to be taken up by wetland plants. Ibis results in cleaner water entering downstream Long Lake. Major District projects undertaken since its creation include the following: Floodplain Delineation. District's support of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) efforts from 1977-82 resulted in the majori­ ty of the District having flood-prone areas identified. The Rice Creek Station 252 Creek Relocation Project. Note homes on bluff in background, which were being endangered due to the creek under­ cutting the steep bank. District's Overall Plan is referenced in many of the flood studies conducted during this era and District staff served as a valuable source of information to various federal contrac­ tors performing the studies. Recently, the District has under­ taken hydrologic studies which expand upon the approxi­ mate methods used in the original studies and will serve to refine the boundaries of floodplain areas. Water Quality Monitoring Program. The District has compiled baseline water quality data for all of the lakes and many of the major streams in the watershed. This data, and the Watershed District's diagnostic/feasibility study efforts, has led to an ability to foresee water quality problems in their infancy. Lake Level Maintenance. Johanna and Long (Hugo) Lakes had outlets installed to moderate excessive water level fluctuations in the basins. Oneka and Horseshoe Lakes were investigated without pro­ jects being established. Water Quality Improvement. The Long Lake/Chain of Lakes (LL/COL) Project was con­ ducted using federal (50%) and state and local (each 25%) monies, and resulted in several dozen projects being com­ pleted within the drainage area tributary to Long Lake (New Brighton). The water quality of Lakes Josephine, Johanna, Valentine, and Pike were improved and protected. Hyd.rologic Modeling. A large portion of the District was modeled as part of the Johanna and Pike Lake studies. Additional watershed mod­ eling was conducted during compilation of the District's 1990 Water Resource Management Plan. A comprehensive three-phase modeling effort was undertaken as part of the Plan implementation. Channel Improvements. The Pike and Johanna subwatersheds were addressed in the Long Lake/Chain of Lakes Clean Lakes Grant Program as well as the improvement of Ramsey County Ditches 2 and 4. A sedimentation basin was constructed above Long Lake, New Brighton, also as part of the LL/COL Project. Lower Rice Creek has been the subject of a bank assessment study and a series of bank stabilization projects based on the study. Later implementation of a cost-share program (SBBS Program) has led to private properties having stabilization measures pedormed. Lake Diagnostic Studies Detailed lake water quality studies have been completed for White Bear, Bald Eagle, Centerville and Peltier lakes with assistance from state and federal grant money. These stud­ ies resulted in recommendations for improving and/or pro­ tecting the water quality of these important recreational lakes.

The Centerville/Peltier study recommended that the implemen­ tation plan focus on improving water quality throughout the upper Rice Creek watershed encompassing White Bear and Bald Eagle Lake watersheds. This was appropriate since the White Bear and Bald Eagle watersheds are part of the greater watershed draining to Peltier Lake. Other waterbodies throughout the upper watershed will benefit from the implementation of the improvement project. These water­ bodies include Sunset, Pine Tr ee, Otter, Rice, Clear, Mud, Howard, Crossways, and Rondeau Lakes, and Rice, Hardwood and Clearwater Creeks. Howard Lake, in partic­ ular, will be substantially improved during the Phase 1 pro­ ject. This combined project has since come to be known as the Upper Watershed Improvement Project. Managers Peterson, Oberg, Haake, and Cardinal at the Peltier Lake outlet. Peltier Lake is one of the target lakes in the Upper Watershed Improvement Project. Implementation of the Upper Watershed Improvement Project is planned in two phases. Phase 1 focuses on the implementation of watershed protection management prac­ tices which are designed to reduce nutrient loading at the problem source. The second phase of the project expands the management efforts and also includes structural man­ agement practices designed to treat runoff. Schuneman Marsh, a large wetland complex upstream of Bald Eagle Lake in the City of Dellwood, is a high priority for restoration as part of the Upper Watershed Improvement Project. Jbe district is exploring cooperative agreements with the Izaac Walton League, which owns much of the wetland and adjacent upland. Goals and objectives for the improvement project were established based on desired uses of the lakes. In general, the goals focus on improving the recreational uses of the lakes. However, Centerville Lake is a backup water supply for the St. Paul Water Utility and improvements to this water­ body will benefit the potable water supply system for the City of St. Paul. The primary water quality problem currently impairing the recreational and water supply uses of the waterbodies is algal blooms. In addition to impairing recreational uses in reservoirs, algal blooms also impact potable water supply value for the Centerville reservoir. Since primary productiv­ ity in most of the lakes is limited by phosphorus, goals are generally stated in terms of phosphorus loading reductions. The project will provide improved protection of the existing good water quality in White Bear Lake, restore Bald Eagle Lake to partially supporting swimming, restore Centerville Lake to fully supporting swimming, improve the wildlife and water quality value of Howard Lake, and provide additional long-term protection for the water quality of Centerville Lake by reducing phosphorus loading to Peltier Lake. These lakes are extremely valuable resources for the state of Minnesota because of their potable water supply use, recre­ ational use, and wildlife values. In the feasibility studies, a number of alternatives were eval­ uated to reach the phosphorus goals for the respective lakes. Special consideration was given to alternatives which addressed problems and reduced pollutant loadings at their source, and to alternatives which have the potential to reduce loadings of other pollutants in addition to phospho­ rus. The feasibility studies also identified numerous water quality initiatives by the RCWD and other local agencies. The implementation plan was designed to complement these existing initiatives, particularly in land development regulations. The upper watershed is currently experiencing rapid urban development. Areas without sewer are being developed as single-family 5-and 10-acre lots. The imple­ mentation plan includes regulation of this transition through a revised wet pond design criteria and enforcement of the Wetland Conservation Act, in addition to existing runoff rate control and water quality initiatives. The Phase 1 plan includes the following elements: •:• A public information/education program which will focus on informing, enlisting support, and improving non­ point source pollution prevention practices by local landowners. •:• Improved enforcement of existing erosion control rules and regulations through the formation of an enforcement steering committee comprised of District and Municipal staff •:• Improvements to long-term operating efficiencies of water quality basins through the development of an inspec­ tion program. •:• Promotion of animal waste management programs already offered by the ASCS through increased solicitation of project cooperators. •:• Completion of livestock exclusion to improve waste management and livestock grazing practices along Hardwood Creek. •:• Fertilizer management demonstration projects to assist farmers with interpreting soil tests in determining fertilizer needs. •:• Promotion of a "no-till farming demonstration day" to show area farmers the benefits of using no-till farming for crop and pasture management. •:• Wetland restoration projects to reduce TP and sediment loads for inlet streams. •:• Elimination of roughfish and revegetation of Howard Lake to improve the wildlife benefits of the lake and reduce phosphorus loadings to Rice Creek. •:• Sediment sealing of alum in Centerville Lake to reduce internal loading and restore the lake to conditions fully sup­ porting swimming. Enjoying the fishing at the Lake Peltier outlet. Both Centerville and Peltier are very popular fishing lakes. During 1994, the District completed detailed planning for the project, made application for a Clean Water Partnership Grant through the MPCA, and developed a consortium of local sponsors. This team includes RCW D, Anoka SWCD, Washington SWCD, Ramsey County, White Bear To wnship, City of White Bear, City of Hugo, City of Mahtomedi, the White Bear Lake Conservation District, the Peltier Lake Homeowners Association, White Bear Lake Homeowners Association, and the Bald Eagle Area Association. In addi­ tion, we have commitment for technical assistance from the Anoka Sand Plains Project. Long Lake Sedimentation Basin Cleaning As part of the Long Lake/Chain of Lakes Grant, a sedimenta­ tion basin was constructed in 1981, upstream of Long Lake in New Brighton. The basin requires periodic maintenance to remove accumulated sediment. During the winter of 1994, approximately 21,000 cubic yards of sediment were removed and disposed of at a cost of $211,688. Manager Haake, Advisory Committee Member Stevens, and Manager Oberg review the completed basin work at Long Lake. Stream Bank Stabilization A severely eroding bank along Rice Creek in the City of New Brighton was identified as a priority site for a bank stabiliza­ tion project. The eroding bank is very close to the City of New Brighton's #12 Municipal Well, threatening the stabili­ ty of the well house. The District applied and received com­ mitments for cost-share grants from the Ramsey County Soil & Water Conservation District and Minnesota Board of Water & Soil Resources. The project is scheduled for construction in 1995. The District also provides cost-share grants to landowners who wish to undertake stream bank stabilization projects on private lands. During 1994, one such project was complet­ ed on Rice Creek in the City of Fridley. Five landowners joint-ventured on the project which involved rip-rapping 3 75 feet of eroding stream bank. The District contributed $14,000 (1/3) of the cost. A cost-share grant in the amount of $2,900 was also approved for a stabilization project on Clearwater Creek in the City of Centerville, which is sched­ uled for construction in 1995. Water Resource Management Plan Amendments During 1994, the District completed the public input and review process and adopted a number of minor amend­ ments to the Management Plan. The overall plan was rewrit­ ten to incorporate information from both the original 1974 Plan for Water Management and the 1986 Water Resource Management (509) Plan, and the sections documenting existing and future conditions and hydrologic systems were greatly expanded to include additional background infor­ mation and data from recent studies. The basic objectives and policies of the District as stated in the Plan were not changed. However, a number of changes in management strategies were adopted. Significant changes are summarized below: •:• Runoff Management. This text was revised to meet the more stringent Metropolitan Council guidelines for water quality ponding. Water quantity text was altered to reflect results of the three-phase runoff study conducted by the District. In general, the blanket rate control policies have been eased to reflect the hydrologic response of the sub­ watershed. •:• Public Ditch Management. This section had an inspec­ tion schedule added to aid the implementation of annual inspections. •:• Water Quality Management. This section was revised to reflect a change in monitoring philosophy to a more intense rotating schedule. Cost elements for implementation of the Upper Watershed Improvement Project are also included. •:• Wetland Management. This section was revised to meet minimum requirements of the State Wetland Conservation Act of 1991, and other changes in the wetland permitting program. •!• Agricultural Erosion. Text was added based upon the District's intent to address nonpoint source pollution as part of the Upper Watershed Improvement Project. •!• Flood Management Profiles. This section described the three-phase runoff study conducted by the District. Te xt was reformatted to discuss results of the study and its intended use. •!• Inspection and Maintenance. This is a new section added to clarify the various responsibilities of the District, and give guidance on other governmental unit roles for inspecting and maintaining conveyance structures and routes. •!• Channel Management. This new section discusses the Stream Bed & Bank Stabilization Program and outlines the District's intent to address major bank failures along Rice Creek. •!• Public Information and Education. This new section reflects the District's intent to move toward a more aggres­ sive nonpoint source education program. This effort is a result of lake diagnostic/feasibility studies conducted over the past three years. Permit Program Revisions Concerned with the high cost of administering its permit program, the District undertook a study aimed at identifying ways to reduce both overall program costs and the amount of subsidization from general tax funds. As a result of this study, a number of changes to the program were adopted. •!• The current practice of billing permit applicants for engineering review charges on an after-the-fact basis was replaced with an up-front variable fee schedule which reflects the relative costs to review various types of projects. This change will eliminate the administrative costs associat­ ed with tracking, billing and collecting review charges on an after-the-fact basis and gives the applicant a known cost up­ front. •!• The practice of paying interest on cash sureties (held to assure compliance with pellilit conditions) was discontin­ ued. This change will reduce the administrative costs asso­ ciated with tracking and calculating accrued interest, prepar­ ing and mailing 1099 forms, etc. Interest earned by the District on these funds will be used to offset expenses asso­ ciated with permit issuance and to reduce the operating deficit of the program. For large projects, applicants will have the option of posting a pedonnance bond or letter of credit to secure surety requirements in excess of $5,000. •!• In order to reduce engineering review costs associated with the program, most of the work associated with admin­ istering the Wetland Conservation Act, as well as pre-permit meetings, site checks, phone inquiries and coordination with municipalities will be shifted from the consulting engi­ neer to the District Office staff. Review of Consulting Services Metro area water management organizations are required by statute to conduct biennial solicitation of interest proposals for consulting services. In late 1994, the District solicited proposals for engineering, legal and accounting services. After a review of proposals received and interviews with several law firms, the Board of Managers found no compelling reason to change from the existing consulting arrangements. Therefore, consulting services for 1995 will continue to be provided by the fol­ lowing firms: Engineering-Montgomery Watson Legal-Harold Sheff & Michelle lllrich General Accounting-Boyum & Barenscheer Financial Audit-Tautges, Redpath & Co. PERMITTING AND INSPECTION PROGRAM Using the District's Rules and Regulations and its Water Resources Management Plan as management guidelines, the Board acted on 233 Pennit Applications during 1994. A breakdown by County of these pennits and reviews, and also a table listing Applications, Project Reviews, and Comprehensive Stonnwater Management Plans comparatively since 1972 follows. Each permitted project site is inspected at least twice during the course of construction for compliance with pennit conditions. Projects found to be in non-compliance are con­ tacted and urged to comply with pennit provisions. If the permittee fails to respond, the District may issue a "Stop Work" order and/or initiate court action to compel compliance. The District Inspector also perfonned a spring flood inspection program at critical points within the hydrologic system, and responded to numerous complaints/concerns about water issues from the general public. Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act. The District administers the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) in conjunction with its other regulatory programs. During 1994, fifteen Cease & Desist Orders were issued for wetland fill or drainage activities. Seven of these sites were restored under for­ mal Restoration Orders, four were found to be exempt, and four are still outstanding. Other WCA activity included the approval of eight wetland replacement plans for wetland fill in connection with roads or other development projects. The 3.9 acres of wetland filled or drained in connection with these projects was replaced by creating or restoring over eight acres of wetland. The District continues to put strong emphasis on avoidance of wetland impacts in admin­ istering its regulatory program. Replacement plans are approved only as a last resort, when total avoidance alternatives have been exhausted.

PUBLIC DITCH INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE After the establishment of RCWD in 1972, Anoka, Ramsey, and Washington Counties transferred jurisdiction for all County and Judicial Ditches to the District for those ditches within the District's borders. The public ditch network existing within the District is extensive, comprising some 121 miles of drainage ditches. During 1994, the District performed the following inspec­ tions and maintenance work on the ditches: Anoka-Ramsey J.D. #1 Comprehensive inspection and profile investigation completed. Deadfall removal and culvert maintenance performed. Approximate cost: $2,000. Anoka-Washington J.D. #2 Comprehensive inspection and profile investigation completed. Deadfall, beaver dam, and sediment removal performed at various locations. Approximate cost: 15,800. Anoka County Ditch #31 Comprehensive inspection and profile investigation completed. Deadfall and sediment removal and correction of culvert obstructions. Approximate cost: $18,000. Anoka County Ditch #46 Comprehensive inspection and profile investigation completed. Deadfall and sediment removal and culvert maintenance performed. Approximate cost: $10,800. Anoka County Ditch #25 Comprehensive inspection and profile investigation completed. No maintenance activities recommended. Ramsey-WashingtonJ.D. #1 Comprehensive inspection, profile investigation, and hydraulic study completed. Repairs rec­ ommended for culvert crossings at Portland Avenue and Buffalo Street as well as channel maintenance consisting of deadfall and sediment removal. A small weir structure is recom­ mended to protect upstream wetlands. Action tabled to 1995 pending further investigation and analysis. In addition, the District, responding to specific complaints from landowners, removed beaver dams and trapped beavers in sev­ eral additional ditch locations. A severely eroding bank along lower Rice Creek. This bank fail­ ure was addressed by the place­ ment of gabions (rock filled wire baskets) at the foot of the slope to provide stability.

(Page 7) WATER QUALITY MONITORING The 1994 monitoring program was the third year of a focused monitoring program. This format focused intense monitoring on only a few lakes and stream reaches and was designed to complement the historic data set collected by RCWD prior to 1992. Lakes monitored during 1994 by RCWD were Spring and Pike Lakes. The District sponsored additional monitoring on Pine Tr ee, Sunset, Clear, and Moore Lakes through the Metropolitan Council's Citizens lake Monitoring Program. Results of citizen monitoring are presented in a report by R.J. Anhorn (1995) entitled, A 1994 Study of the Water Quality of 51 Metropolitan Area Lakes. Spring Lake Spring Lake had relatively good water quality in 1994 and would be classified as fully supporting swimming. The good water quality is due to the relatively small drainage area to the lake and because the lake was dimictic (i.e., mixed verti­ cally only twice) during 1994. However, the shallow nature of the lake makes the lake susceptible to more frequent mix­ ing. During years where climatic conditions cause more fre­ quent mixing (i.e., warmer summers where the lake is more thoroughly heated), water quality conditions in Spring Lake will likely be poorer than that observed in 1994. Sport fishing in the lake is limited by winter fish kills. An aerator system could be installed to improve fisheries. However, fish kills are primarily due to the shallow nature of the lake. Future water quality protection of Spring Lake should focus on public education and strict enforcement of RCWD rules and policies. A new development is anticipated at the north end of the lake in 1995-96. Strict enforcement of erosion and sediment control rules will be an important part of pre­ serving Spring Lake. Pike Lake Pike lake is a degraded lake and is largely a reflection of the large drainage area to the lake, the relatively small lake sur­ face area, and shallow depth. Given these attributes, water quality in Pike Lake would not be expected to be better than that observed in"1994. In 1994, the water quality of Pike Lake did not support swimming. A majority of the pollutant load is delivered by County Ditch 2 from the south. Flows from County Ditch 2 were at least five times higher than flows observed at the other locations. During the field work, a sediment delta was observed in the lake adjacent to this inlet. Sediment delivered by this sub­ watershed could be reduced by improving the efficiency of existing upstream ponds that are tributary to County Ditch 2.Ponds could be improved by conducting maintenance to increase dead storage, restricting outlets to enhance sedi­ mentation, or adding skimmers to retain algal tissue. General recommendations include the continued applica­ tion of general District water quality rules and policies throughout the Pike Lake watershed, inspection and main­ tenance of stormwater ponds in the subwatershed, and implementation of spring street sweeping by New Brighton. ?-' 1994 TROPHIC STATUS INDICES FOR PIKE & SPRING LAKES Trophic State Indices (TSI) are indices comparing the biological productivity of lakes. These indices were developed using TP (Total Phosphorus), Secchi transparency (water clarity), and chlorophyll-a (a measure of algae quantity) data. TSI Parameter Pike Spring Total Phosphorus 72 57 SecchiTransparency 63 50 Chlorophyl-a 63 52 Average 65 53 Lakes with TSis of 0 to 40 are oligotrophic, 41 to 50 are mesotrophic, 51 to 70 are eutrophic, and greater than 70 are hypereutrophic. Eutrophic lakes have high nutrient content and high algal productivity. Trophic State Indices can also be used to detennine suitability for recreational uses. The MPCA (1990) classifies lakes as fully sup­ porting swimming, partially supporting, or nonsupporting. A TSI of less than 60 indicates a lake fully supporting swimming. The District has established the following general goals for the coming year: •:• Increase responsiveness of District to its con­ stituents. -Emphasis here will be on communications/coordination with counties, cities, agencies, developers and the general public regarding plans, projects, regulatory programs, etc. •:• Improve the cost-effectiveness of District opera­ tions. •:• Become more pro-active in identifying and imple­ menting District projects and programs to address specific water quality/quantity issues. -Emphasis here will be on taking a more aggressive role in areas such as public education, lake and wetland restora­ tion/management projects, ditch maintenance, alternative stormwater management, etc. From these general goals, the following specific projects and plans have been scheduled for 1995: •:• Complete maintenance work on Anoka County Ditches 31 and 46 and Ramsey County Ditch 11. •:• Complete deadfall removal on lower Rice Creek. •:• Develop parameters for Silver Lake diagnostic study and negotiate cost-share consortium. •:• Conduct a run-off volume study to help deter­ mine if District policies/standards on runoff man­ agement should be changed. •!• Finalize plans, solicit bids and award contract for Ramsey-Washington Judicial Ditch 1 repairs. •:• Publish and distribute an RCWD Annual Report that is "reader-friendly" and can be used as a vehi­ cle for informing the public about District activi­ ties. •:• Develop Water Resource Management (509) Plan amendments to update Plan through year 2000. •!• Conduct Water Quality Monitoring Program in accordance with District's five-year Plan •:• Administer Wetland Conservation Act Permanent Rules along with District's on-going permit pro­ gram. •:• Implement bank stabilization project at Station 322 + .00 of Rice Creek in New Brighton. •:• Conduct comprehensive ditch inspections and profile investigations for the following public ditches and perform maintenance work as neces­ sary: Anoka-Washington Judicial Ditch 3 Anoka County Ditch 47 Ramsey County Ditches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, & 8. •:• Complete engineering analysis on Anoka County Ditch 53-62, and decide on course of action. •:• Develop and distribute public information news articles. •!• Implement Phase 1 of the Upper Watershed Improvement Project.

A complete copy of the District's audited financial statement is available for review at the District Office. ACCOUNTING SYSTEM The District's accounting system is organized and operated by funds and account groups. A fund is a segregated account for the purpose of accomplishing specific activities or attaining objectives. This report is organized by fund. The Administrative Fund is the general operating fund of the District. It is used to account for financial resources to be used for general administration and operation of the District. This Fund may also be used for construction and maintenance of projects of common benefit to the District. This fund is financed by an ad valorem tax levy not to exceed $200,000 per year. Special Revenue Funds are established to account for the pro­ ceeds of specific revenue sources that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. There are seven of these funds. 1)Sur vey and Data Acquisition Fund: used when no other funds are available to the District to pay for necessary survey and data acquisition. Financed by an ad valorem tax which can be levied once every five years. The balance in this Fund legally cannot exceed $50,000. 2)Water Maintenance and Repair Fund: Used for the main­ tenance and repair of any watercourse or water body lying wholly or partially within the District. Financed by an ad val­ orem tax levy which cannot exceed $15,000 per year. 3)Basic Water Management Fund: used to pay costs attrib­ utable to projects initiated by petition of a municipality, financed by an ad valorem tax levy. 4)Chapter 509 Planning & Projects Fund: used to prepare and implement Water Resource Management Plan (required by the Metropolitan Surface Water Management Act) for achieving basic District objectives. Also used to finance the capital improvement program of the District. Financed by an ad valorem tax levy. 5)To rt Liability Fund: used to provide funding for District's liability insurance policies. 6)Priebe Lake Outfall Project Maintenance Fund: was ongi­ nally used for the Priebe Lake Outfall Project, as petitioned by Cities of Birchwood Village and White Bear Lake, and is now used only for maintenance of the pipe/outfall. Financed by assessments against benefitted property owners. 7)Ramsey County Ditch 8 Maintenance Fund: was original­ ly used to improve County Ditch 8, and is now used only for maintenance of the ditch. Financed by benefitted property owners. AUDIT The general purpose financial statements of the Rice Creek Watershed District for 1994 were independently audited in accordance with the requirements of Minnesota Statute 112.73 (103D.355). The audit was accomplished by the firm of Ta utges Redpath & Co. The results ofthe audit indicated that with respect to items tested, the Rice Creek Watershed District 1994 financial statements present fairly the financial position of the District as of December 31, 1994, and results of its oper­ ations for the year then ended are in conformity with general­ ly accepted accounting principles. Revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances are summarized in the following tables. ADVISORY COMMITTEE Purpose Watershed district advisory committees were established by Chapter 112, Minnesota Watershed Act of 1982: "The com­ mittee shall advise and assist the managers upon all matters affecting the interests of the district and make recommenda­ tions to the managers upon all contemplated projects and works of improvement in the district." Background and History The Rice Creek Watershed District has had an Advisory Committee (AC) since the founding of the District in 1972. MEMBERS OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE Name Elizabeth Cowie Robert Glazer Jeffrey Houchins Richard Jarosak, Sr. Thomas Landwehr David Schumann Lee Stevens Mary Vasecka Isabella Wille Municipality North Oaks Mounds View Lino Lakes New Brighton Shoreview Hugo White Bear Lake Fridley Mounds View Appointment Date 01-23-91 03-10-93 03-10-93 03-10-93 03-10-93 10-17-91 03-09-94 03-10-93 02-12-92 1994 Activities The Advisory Committee held monthly evening meetings which were also attended by a representative of the District Board of Managers. At least one Advisory Committee mem­ ber was present for most of the three regular monthly meet­ ings of the Board of Managers. The AC assisted the Board of Managers by performing the following: •:• Assisted with Metro Council and RCWD water quality study by coordinating a volunteer program to collect samples from five lakes. •:• Made recommendation to RCWD Board for water quali­ ty monitoring of subwatershed tributaries and runoff vol­ ume study. •:• Served on RCWD special task force to review and revise permit fee structure and surety requirements. •:• Attended and reported to Board on Minnesota Water 1994 Seminar. •:• Developed newspaper articles on various water manage­ ment topics to be used as part of District's public infor­ mation program. •:• Studied and compiled 1995 goals for AC and RCWD Board. STATUS OF LOCAL WATER PLANNING After the District's Water Resource Management Plan has been approved and adopted pursuant to M.S. 103B, local units of gov­ ernment having land-use planning and regulatory responsibility are required by statute to prepare a local water management plan, including a capital improvement program and a mechanism to bring the local water management plan into conformance with the District's master Water Management Plan. This plan should reflect the basic elements of the District's Water Management Plan and should include, but not be restricted to, planning for the waters of local significance. The following table summarizes the status of local water plans.

It is found in the natural environment, but is often used to artificially improve or stimulate plant growth in agricultural areas, and residential lawns and ganlens. Phosphorus is possibly the most harmful nutrient aft'ecl:mg lakes in Minnesota. It is the least available nutrient-the "limit­ ing nutrient"--and often controls the extent of plant growth in lakes. When phosphorus enters a lake in pollut­ ed runoff from urban and rural areas or from inadeqoatdy functioning septic sys­ tems, the growth of algae and other aquatic plants in the lake will increase greatly. Aquatic plants provide habitat for fish and wildlife and are vital in a bi9log­ ically well-balanced and productive lake. But rapid and excessive growth of algae and aquatic plants can change the char­ acter of a lake and impair its recreational uses. As phosphorus levels increase, aquatic plants and algae become more and more evident and begin to dominate the shoreline. Water clarity may be reduced. The lake can begin to shrink in size as shoreline areas accumulate decay­ ing plant materials. Fish populations can be dominated by species tolerant of these conditions-often rough fish. Wetland Restoration Wetlands are an extremely valuable resource in the Rice Creek Watershed District. Wetlands serve as habitat for fish and wildlife, provide for the storage of stormwater runoff, and have the ability to remove nutrients, sediment, and other pollutants from stormwater runoff. In addition, some wetlands function as groundwater recharge areas, and all wetlands contribute to biological diversity by supporting many unique plant and animal species. Unfortunately many of the District's wetlands were his­ torically ditched and partially drained to convert the land to other uses. Restoration of some of these wetlands is one of the goals of the Upper Watershed Improvement Project. The restorable wetlands investigation was conducted to collect specific information on restorable wetlands in the Hardwood and Clearwater Creek subwatersheds. This investigation consisted of review of maps and aerial photos, as well as field reconnaissance for verification. The infor­ mation was used to evaluate the wetlands for the relative potential for water quality benefits following restoration as well as the technical feasi­ bility of restoring. After review of the available data, four potential wetland restoration pro­ jects were identified as having high priority. High priority wetlands were defined as those having good-to-excellent feasibility and moderate-to­ high water quality benefits. An additional eight restorable wetlands were given medium priority. The high and medium priority wetlands will serve as the initial focus for implementation of the Upper Watershed Improvement Project. A candidate wetland for restoration. This wetland complex was heavily ditched and par­ tially drained during the early 1900's, to bring more land into agricultural production. Biomonitoring In addition to lake monitoring, the 1994 program also included biological monitoring of Rice and Hardwood Creeks and a restorable wetlands inventory of the Hardwood and Clearwater Creek subwatersheds. Biomonitoring included fish and invertebrate sampling to establish the baseline aquatic biota of the creeks. The restorable wetlands inventory was completed to identify and prioritize potentially restorable wetlands for water quality enhancement associated with the Upper Watershed Improvement Project. Fish numbers and diversity ranged from poor to good depending on the site location. However, a majority of the fish captured were species that were tolerant of environ­ mental stress. The presence of these species and absence of intolerant species indicates that environmental stress is sig­ nificant along portions of Rice and Hardwood Creeks. Invertebrate (small aquatic insects, snails, worms, etc.) sam­ pling and subsequent calculation of biotic indices also showed that the aquatic biology ranged from very poor to good depending on the location. The primary reason for variation in the quality of aquatic biology by location was variation in the quality of habitat. The information obtained from the 1994 biomonitoring pro­ gram will be used to define the baseline aquatic biota as well as to increase the understanding of aquatic ecosystems in the creeks. In the final evaluation, a diverse community is a Technicians gather samples of fish and aquatic invertebrates from Rice Creek as part of the biomonitoring assessment. healthy community. In a healthy stream or lake there should be a balanced population consisting of many differ­ ent kinds of organisms. Adverse chemical or physical changes that disrupt any part of the ecosystem often decrease community diversity. For example, excessive nutri­ ents from animal wastes or sewage may produce a super­ abundance of just a few kinds of organisms rather than a normal balanced community. BIOMONITORING The impact of pollution is most often felt because of its effect on the biology of the lake. Symptoms of problems include algal blooms, lakes choked with weeds, dead fish, and foul odors. While physical and chemical monitoring focuses on no.n-living indica­ tors, biQlQgical monitoring deals with the measure­ ment and evaluation of living o�oisms to determine ·the health of the "ecosystems" of lakes and streams. An ecm-ystem is a biological community together with its physical enl'ironment considered as a unit. living organisms serve as ideal health indicators because they integrate all the insults an ecosystem has felt. The types and numbers of organisms pre­ sent reflect the lake or stream's condition and pro­ vide an inexpensive means of tracking the impact of pollutants and habitat destruction. , 'j•, [,.:,,../'� :.

Consequently, one way to make sure of these differing requirements is to adopt a policy that animals seized from the custody of an owner, kennel, or other person because of creel or inhumane treatment will be held for 10 days while animals seized when loose will be kept only five days. City officials should note that the two laws also differ with regard to the notice which must be provided following the seizure of the animal. Correction pg.6 Financial audit provisions for certain cities clarified Chapter 27 clarifies 1994 legislation which authorized cities with a combined office of clerk and treasurer, and annual revenues for all governmental and enterprise funds of less than $100,000, to have an audit only once every five years rather than annually, as under pre-1994 law. The new law states that the audit only needs to cover one year, not all five years. This bill was effective March 30, 1995.

Fortunately, few became law. Members of the House authored 1,999 bills and Senators introduced 1.788 proposals before the end of the session, a rate eclipsing that of the 1993 appropriation session. A significant number of the nearly 4,000 bills introduced this session, if enacted into law, would have had some measurable impact on cities. The pre-session events started off on a sour note with a relatively weak budget forecast in November. Based on the weak budget projections, the Governor proposed a budget in January that included a reduction of $77 million in city LGA and HACA. Thc bad news did not stop there. With few additional state resources at their disposal, lawmakers seemed to turn their attention to local government. This, in turn, led to several disagreeable notion3 including aid distribution councils, reverse referenda requirement for city and county levy increases, salary caps for local officials, the property tax freeze, taxation of state and municipal bond interest, two-day elections, preemption of local regulation of shooting ranges, and the list goes on and on. From the outset of the session, taxes were taboo. In fact, even non-tax revenue enhancements such as user fees or service charges were attacked as back-door tax increases. For example, when the League met with legislators to request co~npensation for the use of public rights-of-way for telecommunications purposes, legislators were concerned that taxpayers would interpret this as a tax increase. With these perceived constraints affecting legislators, it was apparent early on that requests for additional funding for cities would be futile. It was also apparent that cities would be forced to defend and protect remaining state shared revenues such as LGA and HACA. When evaluating the outcomes of the session, it may appear to have ended in a draw -- few favorable new initiatives for cities, but als() remarkably few negative or onerous new laws imposed. The drama of the 1995 session may have been more intriguing, however, than many previous sessions. Up to the last day of the regular session, cities battled proposals to slash HACA and LGA funding. Last minute proposals to do so were tied to funding our state's complicated K- 12 education finance system. In addition, legislation to preempt local authority to regulate tobacco sales and zoning of shooting ranges were actively pursued and indicative of other efforts to diminish the importance and authority of cities. Nonetheless, cities can claim victory on several fronts. State aid to cities Despite the Governor's proposal to slash funding for cities, the League and other city affiliate groups succeeded in minimizing the impact of the proposed cuts. In the end, the 1996 HACA distribution will be reduced by $16 million in a one-year cut shared by counties, townships, and special taxing authorities. The 1995 state aid distribution to cities will remain intact despite the Governor's proposal to cut current aid distributions for LGA and HACA by $57 million this fiscal year. For 1996, the LGA inflation growth factor remains intact and will raise the LGA appropriations by approximately $10 million. (The Governor had proposed eliminating that growth factor to divert state resources for other purposes.) Tax increment financing Despite several onerous proposals to further restrict the use of tax increment financing, the final tax bill included a significantly scaled-back set of new restrictions. Some new provisions may actually be preferable than existing state laws--most notably the option for cities to choose matching local contributions for TIF projects, rather than the applica- tion of the LGA/HACA penalty. Proposals to impose restriction on pre-1990 TIF districts were not ultimately adopted. Taxation of municipal bond interest Despite efforts by several key }louse members to enact a law to tax interest on municipal bonds, cities were success- ful in defeating the proposal. The initiative was targeted at a lawsuit filed in Ohio that challenges the constitutionality of differential taxation of in state and out-of-state bond interest. City officials successfully argued that elimination of the tax exempt status would substantially increase local borrowing costs and ultimately increase local property taxes. On the House floor, taxation of municipal bonds was pulled from the tax bill, while taxation of state bonds was ultimately adopted by the full House. In the tax conference committee, the provision to tax state bonds was ultimately removed because it made no sense to tax only state governmental bonds. Property tax freeze Early in the session, Senate leadership proposed a freeze on all local property taxes for one year in order to constrain property tax increases and to force discussions for local government finance reforms. The actual property tax freeze bill was not offered until late March. This bill included a "hard" freeze on property taxes, including a freeze on levies for growth based on new construction within a community. Provisions also reimposed levy limits for pay 1997 taxes to prevent any second-year increase in property taxes. To ensure that levies were totally frozen, the bill also restricted levies for newly issued debt. The mere thought caused havoc for city officials who had plans to issue new debt in 1996. Strong responses of opposition from city officials across the state played an essential role in killing the proposal. 1995 Law Summaries Page 3 1995 Law Bills that have been signed ~nto law by the Go 'rrnor Crime Criminal justice finance and lax~ Chapter 226 is a 18(}-page law Ibm pr,.,vide-, m~,nc~ courts and law CIIfOrCCIBCllI, atld [llakc-, ~ coral to the state's criminal law qatutes.

The evaluation must include tax incre- ment financing assistance, and address other legislatively specified issues. Omnibus economic development appropriations Chapter 224 provides appropriations for the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency to total $30.1 million for 1996-97 and $17.5 million for 1997-98. The following programs were funded at these levels: Rental Housing Assistance for persons with mental illness: $2.4 million Affordable Rental Investment: $6.0 million (50 percent units financed to be outside metro area) Community Rehabilitation: $5.8 million Capacity Building Grants: $250,000 Rural and Urban Homesteading: $372,000 Rental Assistance: $3.0 million Fmnily Homeless Prevention: $400,000 Mortgage Foreclosure Prevention/$200,000 Rental Assistance: $4~30,d~,~ (line item veto) Residential Lead Paint/Contaminated Soil Abatement: ,~,~,~,v,~, ..........

Local governments must report the goals and the results for each project to DTED, which must publish the findings each June 1. Elections Allocation of election expenses, schedule of certain city elections, terms of office Most of Chapter 8 provides for school district election changes to comply with uniform election law, however, several sections pertain to city elections. Section 3 replaces current language regarding the allocation of the cost of conducting combined elections with school districts. Section 3 also provides for the Secretary of State to develop proce- dures for allocating costs among counties, cities, townships, and school districts for concurrent elections. Section 5 modifies the schedule for city general elec- tions and authorizes cities to hold elections every other year rather than annually. Home rule charters are not exempt from this provision, so this provision applies to both home rule and statutory cities. Other provisions in this section autho- rize two or four year mayoral terms, and four year councilmember terms. Section 6 modifies the transition schedule for cities electing more than one councilmember in each ward. The transition schedule in such cities provides for only one councilmember per ward to be elected in any general city election, in order to make the change from odd to even year elections, or vice versa. Sections pertaining to city election schedules and terms of office are effective the day following final enactment. For cities with annual elections, the transition to even or odd numbered year elections must be completed by November, 1998. Time off to vote in legislator elections Chapter 20 allows every employee eligible to vote time off work to vote in elections to fill vacancies in the offices of state senator and state representative. This law became effective March 28, 1995. Election judges Chapter 34 authorizes elections judges to serve outside the county in which they reside. Effective August 1, 1995. Presidential primary Chapter 224, Section 73 delays the date of the next presidential primary until after 1999. A future legislature will determine whether to appropriate funds for local balloting in the year 2000, which is the next presidential election year. Effective August 1, 1995. Environment Solid waste assessments. Chapter 111 clarifies some issues surrounding the state's solid waste assessment of $2.00 annually per home and $.60 cents per cubic yard of waste collected from businesses. The 1995 Law Summaries Page 5 Law summaries continued law addresses churches, apartments buildings, and other waste generators. Bag or sticker based collection systems are addressed by allowing some flexibility in establishing an equipment per bag charge ($.03 per 35 gallon bag, example). Effective retroactive to January 1, 1995. Environmental Appropriations Bill Chapter 220 contains several sections applicable to cities, including: · Providing $ 1.946,000 for the clean water partnership program. · Creating an advisoD' task force to "examine the point source permitting programs in the water quality division of the MPCA" that will report by November 30. 1995. · Requiring an MPCA report by January. 1. 1996. of all wastewater treatment facility upgrade and construction projects necessary to meet existing and proposed water quality standards and regulations, and other related information. · Providing $28 million in SCORE }:!lock grants to counties. · Allocating $1.8 million in local govermnent matching grants for local park and recreation areas, natural and scenic areas, trail linkages, and a conservation partners wildlife habitat improvement program. Various effective dates. Petrofund amendments Chapter 240 extends l'rom five to seven the number of years contractors must retain documents relating to cleanups of underground storage tanks, changes the reimbursable percentage for cleanup involving residential sites, requires competitive bidding or proposals for cleanups seeking reimbursement from the petrofund, extends petrofund eligibility for large tanks owned by political subdivisions, and clarifies emergency responder immunity for oil dis- charges. Effective May 26, 1995. Solid waste designation Chapter 247 is this year's amendments to the Waste Management Act. The changes are mostly technical, with fewer policy initiatives. The section of most importance for cities deals with waste designation and prohibits public entities, including cities, l'¥om entering into waste manage- ment activities that are inconsistent with an approved county plan except for activities to reduce waste generation or reuse waste materials. Before a city enters into an activity that is lower on the preferred practices list than that in the county plan. the city is required to consider its potential liability in doing so. make a plan for dealing with it, and submit that information to the agency. Effeclive June 2, 1995. Finance Financial audit provisions for certain cities clarified Chapter 27 clarifie, that legislation passed last session regarding cities with a combined office of clerk and treasurer and annual revenues for all governmental and enterprise funds in excess of $100,000 are required to provide an audit to the state auditor only once ever)' five years, and that the audit only needs to cover one year. not all five years. This bill was effective March 30. 1995. Budget report date moved and summary budget publica- tion requirements for certain cities modified Chapter 134 gives cities another month to fopa'ard summary, budget information to the state auditor, lnstead of December 31 of the year preceding the budget year, the deadline will be January. 31 of each budget year. Addition- ally, cities in the metro area will now have the option of publishing their summary budget statement in a city newslet- ter or other city mailing sent to all households in the city, instead of the official newspaper or qualified newspaper of general circulation. If the city newsletter is used, it must be the lead story. If a mailing is used, the summary, budget statement must be printed on different-colored paper than other information contained in the mailing. If either a newsletter or mailing is used. a copy must be sent to any nonresident requesting the summary budget stalement. This law becomes efl~ctive on August 1, 1995. State Department appropriations bills Chapter 254 appropriates money and mandates pro- grams for state agencies and departments. The bill: · Requests that the legislative audit commission consider directing the legislative auditor to conduct a full program evaluation of the Department of Human Rights in 1995. · Reduces the state general fund diversion of the building code surcharge funds to a little over a million dollars and transfers excess surcharges to the building codes and standards division. Page 6 1995 Law Summaries Law summaries continued Appropriates $2.5 million for ice arena construction grants of up to $250,000/arena. Appropriates an additional $790,000 for the Mille Lacs Treaty litigation. Clarifies state zoning laws to differentiate between building and land use or zoning permits. Increases the state's ability to collect unpaid debts, including those owed by cities. Public finance amendments Chapter 256 contains the annual amendments to state laws regulating the issuance of debt by cities and other political subdivisions. Counties and schools are given powers similar to cities to bond for ice arenas and other recreational facilities, tax credits in enterprise zones are renamed or redesignated as incentive grants, and self- insuring political subdivisions or their pools are authorized to issue bonds for necessary reserves or for the payment of claims. Ice arena bonding procedures are also modified, allowing for reverse referendums rather than authorizing elections. Effective June 2, 1995. Omnibus tax bill Chapter 264 is this year's omnibus tax bill. It contains many sections affecting cities. Aid reduction to local governments Cities, counties, towns, and special taxing districts will share in a one-time $16 million cut in HACA in 1996 (see printout for city-specific reductions). Economic development - Tax Increment Financing local contribution Development authorities will be able to elect at the time of approving the T1F plan to exempt the district from the LGA/HACA penalty by making a local contribution to the district equal to a percentage of the annual increment revenue. Economic development, housing, renewal and renovation districts would require a 10 percent contribution. Redevelopment, hazardous substance, soils, and mined underground space districts would require a 7.5 percent contribution. These local government contributions must be made out of the development authority's unrestricted money, and cannot be made, directly or indirectly, with tax increments or certain developer payments. The maximum contribution by the development authority is limited to two percent of the adjusted net tax capacity of the city. If the state contributes to the projected costs, through a direct grant or similar incentive, the required local contribution is reduced by one- half of the dollar amount of the grant or incentive. Devel- opment authorities may also request contributions from the county, school district, or other units of government. Special law duration extensions Under any duration extension request to the legislature, development authorities will have the option of having the LGA/HACA penalty applied or having state school aid recomputed with the TIF district's captured value, at the time of the extension, included as if it were part of the school district's tax base. This would have the effect of reducing state school aid and increasing local property taxes on all other property within the school district boundaries. In addition, special law duration extensions will be required to obtain approval from all affected governmental units (city or town, county, and school district). Duration extensions are granted for the cities of St. Louis Park, Hastings, Hopkins, Morris, Oakdale, and Lake City. Lakefield is authorized to establish a redevelopment TIF district to develop property previously used for a municipal hospital. Crystal, Fridley, Minneapolis, and St. Paul are authorized to establish pilot projects for the creation of housing replacement TIF projects. "But-for" test modified Municipalities will be required to make a finding that the taxable market value of a site will increase if TIF is used over that which would occur if TIF was not used. In making this determination, the present value of the tax increment subsidies is deducted from the projected market value of the TIF development. Qualified housing districts (those providing assistance to low-income rental projects) are exempt from the "but-for" test. Pooling of tax increment revenues The amount of increment revenues that may be spent outside a non-redevelopment TIF district is limited to 20 percent of the total collections within the district. Redevel- opment districts will continue to have the 25 percent limitation. Restrictions on uses of certain districts The use of soils districts is restricted to pollution or contamination clean-up. Economic development districts may no longer be used for commercial purposes in cities with populations under 5,000. These cities are now subject to the same limitations as large cities where use is limited to manufacturing, research and development, warehousing, etc. 1995 Law Summaries Page 7 Law summaries continued , If 80 percent of an area has bedrock soils conditions, an economic development district may be used for correcting soils deficiencies and for public improvements (previously, this was a permissible use for all soils districts). Green acres, metropolitan agricultural preserves, and open space Properties that were enrolled in a deferred assessment program within the last five years may not be included within a TIF district. An exception is made for parcels outside the metro area to be used for manufacturing facilities. Newspaper disclosure Additional items must now be included in the annual newspaper disclosure which is also made mandatory,. Under current law, newspaper disclosure is not required as long as an annual report is filed with the State Auditor. The addi- tional items include: the amount of increment paid to other governmental units, the amount paid for administrative costs, the amount of increment spent outside the TIF district, and the effect on property taxes due to the election to pay the fiscal disparities contribution out of a general tax on the municipality. Copies of the newspaper disclosure must be provided to the State Auditor (rather than the commissioner of revenue). Request for certification date changed For consistency with general property tax timelines, the cut-off date for submitting certification requests for parcels to qualify for the next taxes payable year is changed from July 1 to June 30. State oversight Responsibility for state oversight of tax increment financing will be transferred from the Commissioner of Revenue to the State Auditor. To fund this new duty, one tenth of one percent of all increment revenues generated will be paid to the State Auditor's office. The State Auditor is authorized to examine the use of TIF for compliance with the law and to refer violation information to the county attorney who may bring an action to enforce the law. The State Auditor must also prepare reports of non-compliance to the governing body who approved the district and forward them tbr comments to the municipality which must respond in writing within 60 days. These reports and the comments will then be sent to the appropriate legislative committees. Effective dates Most provisions are effective for districts for which requests for certification are made after June 30, 1995. The financial reporting provisions take effect on January, 1, 1996. Changes in the LGA;HACA penalty are effective for all hazardous substance subdistricts and for districts for which the request for certification is made after June 30, 1994 so that existing districts that were subject to the penalty, have the option to make the local contribution instead. Property tax refund as deduction on tax statement Homeowners' regular ("circuit breaker') and special ("targeting") property tax refunds will be reported as deductions on property tax statements and will be paid directly to the county treasurer. The first year of the new payment method will be 1998. The regular property tax refund and the targeted refund will be itemized separately on the truth in taxation notice, and the notice will state that the deduction for the targeted property tax refund is contingent upon continuity in ownership of the property. Even though the regular ("circuit breaker") property tax refund will be reported on the property tax statement, qualifying property owners will continue to file the M-1PR form with the state. Indoor ice arenas Materials and supplies used for the construction of indoor ice arenas will be exempt from the sales tax as long as the arena is intended to be used primarily for youth athletic activities and it is owned and operated under a joint powers agreement with the school district. This provision is effective for sales made between June 30. 1995 and July I, 1996. Note: The Omnibus State Government Bill also contains $2.9 million in available state grants for new ice arenas. Wind energy property The property tax exemption for wind energy conversion systems is modified to exempt systems installed between January 1, 1991 and JanuaD' 2, 1995, and to exempt systems constructed after January l, 1995 only if they are located within the same county and owned by the same owner and produce in aggregate two or less megawatts of electricity. The turbines, transformers, blades, and related equipment will remain exempt from the property tax. for those systems installed on or after January. 1, 1995 which are located in the same county, owned by the same owner, and produce more than two megawatts of electricity. Property taxes will be imposed on foundation and support pad and 30 percent of the associated supporting and protective structures after a five year exemption period. Wind energy tax definitions "Wind energy system" means a wind energy conversion system defined in Minnesota law which is used as an electric power source. "Area" means the counties of Lincoln and Page 8 1995 Law Summaries Law summaries continued Pipestone. "Home county" means the county of Pipestone. "Municipality" means any city or town located in the county of Lincoln or Pipestone. "Qualifying wind energy system net tax capacity" includes the taxable portion of the net tax capacity of any wind energy system located in the area installed after January 1, 1996 and the portion of the hypothetical net tax capacity that would be included on a wind energy system located in the area installed after January 1, 1991 and before January 2, 1995, that would be computed if that property was subject to taxation. In determining local tax rates for a municipality in which wind energy systems are located, the county auditor will deduct the qualifying wind energy system net tax capacity (the tax capacity of the taxable wind energy systems) from the total net tax capacity of each municipality containing this property. The county auditor is required to determine the municipal wind energy tax by multiplying each municipality's tax rate by the net tax capacity of the taxable wind energy property located within the municipal- ity. The sum of these amounts for all municipalities in the area will be called the "municipal wind energy distribution pool." A similar provision exists for determining county wind energy tax. Each municipality within the area is entitled to receive a distribution from the municipal wind energy distribution pool equal to its proportion of qualifying wind energy net tax capacity relative to the total for all municipalities in the area. Each county within the area is entitled to a similar distribu- tion with the additional qualification that each county shall be entitled to a distribution equal to the greater of ten percent of the total county wind energy distribution pool or fifty percent of the county's wind energy tax. The home county auditor is responsible for determining for each municipality and each county in the area the difference between the municipality or county wind energy tax and the wind energy distribution. These differences must be certified to the other county by May 16 of each year. By June 15 and November 15 of each year, each county treasurer in a county having a total wind energy tax in excess of the total wind energy distribution must pay one-half of the excess to the other county in accordance with the home county auditor's certification. The treasurer in each area must pay the county and each municipality its wind energy distribution amounts by June 25 and November 25 of each year. Transit zone property Commercial/industrial (class 3a) property that is constructed under an initial building permit issued after January 2, 1996, located within a transit zone and school district, and not primarily used for retail or transient lodging will have a reduced class rate of four percent on its market value exceeding $100,000. This tax rate will also apply to improvements as long as the other conditions are met. These changes will be effective for taxes assessed in 1997, payable in 1998. A transit zone is defined as the area within one-quarter mile of a bus route which has certain hours of service within the metro urban service area and would also include any light transit route that may be established. The Metropolitan Council is responsible for producing a map of transit zones by January 1, 1996 and for providing the map to all metro- area assessors. Reduced class rates for apartment, manufactured home park, and cabin property The class rate on apartment property is reduced from 3.4 percent to 2.3 percent in cities outside the metropolitan area and the nine counties immediately adjacent to the metro area with populations of less than 5,000. The property must also be in a city more than 15 miles from another city with a population over 5,000. The class rate for manufactured home parks will remain at 2 percent rather than increase to 2.3 percent in 1996 as current law provides. The class rate for noncommercial seasonal residential recreational property (cabins) will also be reduced from two percent to 1.9 percent for taxes payable in 1997 and to 1.8 percent for taxes payable in 1998 and thereafter for the market value under $72,000. In determining HACA, the 3.4 percent class rate will be used on all apartment property so that the amount paid by the state does not increase as a result of the above-described reduced class rate. Instead, the net effect will be a shift to other property taxpayers within the taxing districts which contain the qualifying apartment property. The relief for cabins will result in HACA increases to prevent property tax shifts. Truth in Taxation notices The estimated percentage increase in Minnesota personal income will no longer be listed on the Truth in Taxation notice. Board of Government Innovation and Cooperation The Board will have increased functions and duties, including the production of a report to the Governor and the legislature on unfunded state mandates by January 15, 1996. $2 million is appropriated for fiscal years 1996 and 1997. 1995 Law Summaries Page 9 Law summaries continued Non-Minnesota bond interest taxation remedy Ifa court decides that the taxation of non-Minnesota municipal bond interest violates the Constitution, the remedy will be to tax the interest on Minnesota municipal bonds, rather than to exempt the interest on non-Minnesota munici- pal bonds from taxation. Waste management services For the purpose of clarifying what is subject to the $2 residential or 60 cents per cubic yard commercial state solid waste assessment, "mixed municipal solid waste manage- ment services" is defined as tile management of such waste through the process from collection to disposal, including2 transportation and management at a waste facility. Addition- ally, thc costs that are exempt from the general and local option sales tax provisions of Minnesota law are specified. Winona lodging tax proceeds The city of Winona is authorized to used 50 percent of the proceeds of their 1991 special law lodging tax, after the debt for the Julius C. Wilke Steamboat Center is retired, to promote certain, specified tourism activities. Ag processing thcilities Materials for use in the construction of certain agricul- tural processing plants (at least $8.5 million investment which exceeds $12,000 per resident of the city or town and located in a city or town with a median household income of less than $18,000) are exempt from the sales tax unless the plant is an ethanol production facility. Sales tax study A Sales Tax Advisory Council is established to study the current sales tax system. Homestead cabin property Cabin property can no longer be reclassified as a homestead under the "relative homestead" rules after a four year period. In order to reclassify cabin property the owner must actually occupy it as a homestead. Separate spouse homesteads Only partial homestead status will be received by an owner or a spouse occupying a residence owned by their spouse which they previously occupied with their spouse if either spouse fails to include the other spouse's name or social security number on their homestead application. Where the name and social security number of both spouses is included on homestead applications for two separate residences but one of the applications is not signed, the owner or spouse will be deemed to have elected to home- stead the residence for which the application is signed. Equalization board meetings Two Saturday informational meetings to discuss cabin property valuations will be required to be held by a county where at least 25 percent of the net tax capacity of a city or town within that county is classified at noncommercial seasonal residential recreational property (cabins). These Saturday meeting dates must be listed on the notice of property valuation. Delinquent taxes penalty and interest distributions The penalty and interest collected on delinquent taxes is required to be distributed to all school districts in the count3, rather than only to the scht~ol district in which the property is located. This is the currenl practice and thus merely a clarification in the law. Delegation of power relating to abatements The county board has tile power to delegate the respon- sibility relating to abatements to the county auditor unless the county auditor holds elective office in which case the county auditor must concur to the delegation. Apartment property tax study A study on possible methods of providing incenuves to improve the state's stock of rental housing will be conducted by the Department of Revenue and the Minnesota Housing Finance agency. Specifically, the study will consider a scenario where two percent class rate is in place for five assessment years. The study will identify the estimated impact on the market value of improvements made to apartment property which is at least 25 years old and where the value of the improvements are equal to 20 percent of the total market value of the property proposal as if it were in effect for taxes payable in 1998. Other policy alternatives will also be considered and results will be reported to the House and Senate Tax Committee Chairs by February 15. 1996. City aid base An increase in the portion of city LGA that is grandfathered is provided for cities that received additional LGA in 1995 because of transfers to sewer and water funds (25 cities qualify). The qualifying cities will receive a permanent increase in their city aid base in an amount equal to the additional LGA they received in 1995. Additionally, the city aid base for the city of Pillager will be permanently increased in the amount of $40,000. Miscellaneous: Premium tax increase Insurance premium tax rates will be increased effective Janua~ 1, 1995. Town and farmers' mutuals and mutuals with $5 million or less in assets increases from .5 percent to Page 10 1995 Law Summaries Law summaries continued one percent. The rates for mutual insurance companies with assets between $5 million and $1.6 billion on December 31, 1989 will increase from .5 percent to 1.26 percent. All lines of property-casualty insurance are included in this rate increase. The proceeds will be used primarily to fund fire and police pensions. Police and fire aid calculations Fire state aid equals 107 percent of reported fire premiums taxes and state police aid equals 104 percent of reported automobile premiums taxes. Fire aid recipients will receive two percent of fire premiums (minus audit and exam costs) and one percent of thc premiums of town and farmers' mutuals and mutuals with $5 million or less in assets. Police state aid recipients will receive two percent of automobile premiums. This provision is effective for aid paid in 1996. Tax anticipation certificates Home rule charter cities are authorized to issue tax anticipation certificates in the same ~nanner currently available to statutory cities. Certificates may also be issued in anticipation of federal and state aids. Revenue policy initiatives - property tax and property tax refunds Certified levy The clarification is made that the county auditor does not deduct HACA from a local government's certified levy amount, but does deduct the amount of disparity reduction aid from the certified levy. (Cities no longer receive DRA under a 1993 law change.) Technical initiatives - property tax Certifying costs of local assessments The dates for certifying the costs of local assessments are changed in order to conform to the truth-in4axation deadlines. "This Old House" The clarification is made that "homes" means owner- occupied units. Cutoff date for computing HACA and DRA A cut-off date of June 30 is established for computing HACA and DRA for k)cal governments.

Cities are required to make payment and perfor- mance bonds available for inspection and copying upon request. Claimants may extend the time to bring an action to enforce a claim under a bond beyond the one year period provided in Minnesota law by written stipulation between the claimant and the surety or by written notice of a one year extension to the surety sent via certified mail 90 days before the expiration of the initial one year period. The effective date for most of these provisions is August 1, 1995 and applies to contracts for which notice of invitations for bids or requests for proposals are issued after July 31, 1995. The payment bonds provisions are effective retroactively to August l, 1994. State agencies required to report to legislature on federal mandates Chapter 57 requires that agencies administering a program supported in whole or in part by federal funds or subject to significant federal mandates to report certain information to the legislature by January 1, 1996.

Page 14 1995 Law Summaries Law summaries continued Metropolitan Metropolitan Livable Communities Chapter 255 is the new Metropolitan Livable Communi- ties Act which creates an economic vitality and housing initiative primarily for the metro area. A Local Housing Incentives Account program is established as a voluntary program for cities. While cities can choose not to participate in the program, they will not be allowed to apply for state grants to clean up contaminated sites unless they can show that they spent money on affordable housing as if they had been participating. Cities designate an amount for affordable housing equal to the cumulative amount they would have spent had they participated, or they agree to deposit their share into a regional pool. The program would require a portion of property taxes on high-valued homes be used to build more affordable and "life-cycle" housing for certain groups at various stages of life (for example, singles, young families, the elderly). Cities choosing to participate in the program would negotiate housing goals with the Metropoli- tan Council. A second program is the "livable communities" demon- stration project program which would allow cities to obtain grants and loans from the Met Council for certain projects. To pay for this program, the Met Council is authorized to levy a tax up to 50 percent of the current Metropolitan Mosquito Control District's levy and also provides an annual HACA payment equal to 50 percent of what the Mosquito Control District receives. In total, this amount could equal nearly $4.5 million available annually for grants and loans. The Mosquito Control District's levy authority and their HACA payment are reduced by the amounts received by this program. A third program is intended to assist in cleaning up polluted lands in the metro area. Money to fund this program will come from funds set aside by the Met Council to help local governments purchase rights-of-way when building roads and from the fiscal disparities pool made up of a portion of each metro city's commercial-industrial tax base. More specifically, the program taps a pool that dates back to the construction of the Mall of America. It is estimated that the pool would pay about $5 million per year to the program. Finally, an urban homestead exemption program is created to provide income tax breaks for up to five years for persons moving into certain blighted neighborhoods in the metro area. The Met Council will designate certain areas as urban revitalization and stabilization zones by September 1, 1995. The maximum exemptions would equal $10,000 for singles, $12,500 for heads of households, and $15,000 for married couples filing jointly. Various effective dates apply.

Effective August 1, 1995. Workers' compensation Chapter 231 is an effort to cut workers' compensation insurance premiums by 11.4 percent. Cost of living adjust- ments would be cut in half to two percent, and no annual COLA would be made for the first four years from the date of injury. Permanent total disability payments would only be made if the employee has at least a 17 percent permanent partial disability rating of the whole body or 13 percent if at least 55 years old without a high school degree or GED certificate. Permanent total payments will now cease at age 67 due to a retirement presumption. The minimum weekly compensation is set at $104 and the maximum at $615 (an increase of approximately $100 per week) for temporary total disability. Modest insurance and administration reforms are also in the new law, but most of these issues 1995 Law Summaries Page 15 Law summaries continued were addressed in the 1992 reform measure. Generally effective for injuries occurring after October 1, 1995. MnCare amendments Chapter 234 is a 210~page law amending the state's health care plan for the uninsured. The goal of universal coverage (less than four percent uncow.~red) is moved back to January, 1,2000. Annual cost containment reports are required for group health care purchasers. Also, all local government units must provide expenditure data to the state. The law requires that representatives of the affected local government units wilt be consulted in establishing defini- tions, reporting formats, and reporting time frames, and the reporting burden is to be minimized. Eligibility tbr MnCare coverage is broadened, copayment and deductible provisions of private policies are capped ($5000/family and $1000/ person respectively). BMS arbitration lists Chapter 239 makes technical amendments to the state's public sector labor laws, including abolishing the existing arbitration roster effective January I, 1996. The law also requires the Bureau of Mediation Services to maintain a list of up to 60 arbitrators for use by public employers and exclusive representatives, removes the uniform baseline determination form from rule~making requires, requiring BMS training and technical assistance regarding the form, and strengthens arbitration timelines and oversight.

Study on designation of public employees as supervisory or confidential Chapter 248, Article 14 relates to the preservation of collective bargaining and requires a study by the legislative coordinating commission on issues concerning the determi- nation of which public employees are supervisory and which are confidential, as discussed in two recent decisions by the Minnesota Court of Appeals. The purpose of the study is to determine what changes are needed, through legislation or in the roles and procedures of the Bureau of Mediation Services, to maintain an appropriate balance in the decision- making process involved in the designation of public employees. Conclusions and recommendations will be made to the legislature by February 1, 1996. Omnibus child support enforcement act Chapter 257 is the omnibus child support enforcement act. Drivers' licenses will be suspended for certain delin- quencies, and of significance for cities as employers is a section establishing a centralized work reporting system. All employers are required to submit certain information (employee's name, address, social security number, and date of birth when available, and employer's name, address, and federal identification number) to the Department of Human Services within 15 calendar days of the date of hiring. No contact will be required for employees hired for less than two months and having gross earnings of less than $250 per month. Notices of non-compliance will be sent to employ- ers who fail to submit the required information and addi- tional violations (intentionally unreported employees) will result in fines of $50 for the second violation and $500 for the third violation. The reporting requirements also apply to anyone hired as an independent contractor. Additionally, no longer will employers have the initial burden of requesting whether a newly-hired individual has court-medical support obligations that are required by law to be withheld from income. Individuals are now required to voluntarily disclose this information at the time they are hired. For automatic income withholding, employers need only receive, along with the applicable statutory provisions, a copy of the withholding requirements, and are no longer required to receive a copy of the notice of income withhold~ ing, the court order, or notice of order. Lump sum payments, including bonuses, commissions, or other payer benefits in addition to severance, accumulated sick or vacation pay, are required to be paid to the child support enforcement authority upon certain conditions. The Work Reporting System is effective July 1, 1996. Other sections are effective January 1, 1996. Additional fire and police amortization aid Chapter 262 allocates one-half of the excess funds from the PERA Excess Contributions Holding Account for additional amortization aid for local police or salaried firefighter relief associations. This allocation is in addition to the existing amortization and supplemental amortization aid programs.

Also eligible are local police or salaried firefighter consolidation accounts that are certified by the Commissioner of PERA as having for the current year an additional municipal contribution amount and have either implemented the pre-July 1, 1993 PERA Police and Fire Plan (if the consolidation account was in effect May 24, 1993) or the pre-July 1.1995 Plan (if consolidation is in effect July 1, 1995). The aid is based on proportional shares of total unfunded actuarial accrued liabilities of all recipient relief associations and consolidation accounts as of Decem- ber 31, 1993 or June 30, 1994. These aid amounts will be allocated on October 1, 1997 and annually thereafter. Effective the day following enactment.

The plan will also assign frequen- cies to the network and subsystems. All units of local govern~nent as well as private entities eligible to use the public safety radio communications plan are to have adequate communications capacity and intercom- munications capability. The Metropolitan Radio Board is responsible for determining the implementation, timing, scope and performance standards of the system, as well as the participatilm of additional entities. Within two years all metro counties, with the participa- tion of cities and other local government units, are to complete planning for subsystems to ensure coordination and implementation to meet local service needs. The cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Bloomington have the option to participate in the subsystems or to develop their own plans. The plans must be submitted to the regional board for approval.

The commissioner of health will adopt rules for lead inspection, soil and drinking water sampling, standards for lead hazard reduction, and methods for lead in paint, dust, drinking water and soil for all residences including child care facilities, playgrounds and schools. Cities may not have ordinances or regulations governing these standards that require different standards or methods than those established at the state level. The commissioner will develop a model ordinance tbr boards of health to enforce the new law. Local boards of health are to enforce lead orders issued under secondary prevention provisions under local ordinance or a public health nuisance.

The program is tended to provide education on the prevention of lead poisoning, promote swab team services and lead clean~up equipment, and publicize grants and the development of lead-sate directives. Cities and other units of local govern- ment are required to follow priorities established by the department. The commissioner is to develop educational strategies as a primary measure to prevent lead exposure, including the development of educational materials for the public to be used in lead hazard reduction efforts, as well as for property owners, landlords and tenants. Local govern- ments must include swab team services as part of the primary prevention effort in high risk census tracts. Cities of the first class must conduct lead inspections to provide for secondary prevention efforts. Boards of health ,serving other cities are also required to conduct lead inspec~ tions, unless they officially relinquish those duties to the commissioner of health. The state is authorized to provide technical assistance, equipment, lab or field testing equip- ment or reimbursement for direct costs of inspection. Time frames and activities to be included in the inspection are also stated in the bill. Effective August 1, 1995. Transportation/transit Cities outside metro area authorized to provide certain para-transit outside their service areas Chapter 10l allows nonmctropolitan cities, counties, and transit commissions and authorities that provide finan- cial assistance to or operate public transit to provide para- transit as a complement to fixed route service, even if outside its jurisdictional boundaries, but only by contracting for the service. Effective on April 29, 1995. Transportation funding Chapter 265 is most noteworthy for what it does contain: a gas tax increase or other source of substantial new money for transportation (roads or mmsit). While many last minute proposals were circulated, state leaders were unable to reach an agreement. Consequently, this law will maintain the status quo or minimize/reduce cuts in road and transit programs in almost all transportation areas. Only a few programs will receive any substantial increase in state funds. Municipal State Aid Streets (M.S.A.S.) will receive a little more than $176 million over the next two years. Other amendments include constructing an additional lane on 1-394 near Penn Avenue in Minneapolis and related improvements, requiring MnDOT to consider alternative Page 18 1995 Law Summaries Law summaries continued means of financing projects through congestion pricing, tolls, mileage pricing, and public-private partnerships, and appropriating almost $900,000 for nonmetropolitan transpor- tation studies, exempting roads from MPCA noise standards, and changing the method of determining population for M.S.A.S. purposes. Refunds of drivers' license fees, all calls from cellular phones, bulletproof vests, and other issues are also addressed in the law, which has various effective dates, but none later than July 1. Utilities Alternative regulation of telephone companies Chapter 156 authorizes phone companies to apply to the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (MPUC) for approval of an alternative regulation plan. The plan ensures customers will continue to receive affordable service meeting MPUC quality service standards and encourages the development of alternative forms of telecommunication. These alternative forms of regulation will deregulate certain non-essential services and the rate of return. Services that are essential to residential and business services such as switched network access, touch-tone service, 911 emergency service, and installation and repair, would continue to be price regulated under the new plan. Other telephone services would be flexibly priced or non- price regulated. MPUC is authorized to determine if existing telephone services comply with current rules and if rates are appropriately set prior to the implementation of the alterna- tive regulation plan. Long-distance phone companies are authorized to furnish interexchange services. Local phone services are authorized to offer long-distance service provided under certification by MPUC prior to August 1, 1995, or to offer local phone service certified by MPUC after August 1, 1995. Local phone services may also authorize a provider to furnish local exchange service. A local exchange provider that serves fewer than 50,000 subscribers may choose to become a small telephone company for at least three years. The company will not be permitted to increase rates for essential services for two years, or until 1998. Phone companies must comply with non-discrimination standards. These standards require services be provided to "similarly situated persons," that preference not be given when furnishing services, products or facilities to affiliates or retailers who sell directly to customers, and, that rates be set that are in line with the established standards unless competitors can obtain similar services in the same market or geographic area under comparable terms. MPUC has the sole authority to approve or revoke local exchange service to local subscribers and to prescribe how these services are delivered. Cities and other local units of government retain the authority to decide how equipment and facilities are located on, below, or above public right of ways and property. Phone companies are required to repair and restore streets and other public property to original condition during installation or operations, and must provide a map of facilities within the local telephone service area. MPUC is directed to certify applicants to offer local phone service prior to August 1, 1996 at which time negotia- tions on interconnection are to take place. In the case where no agreement is reached, MPUC is to make temporary arrangements to allow the new provider to offer services. Similar arrangements are to be implemented for emerging competitors to smaller phone companies. The Minnesota Department of Public Service is directed to study how to ensure citizen access to local government and public access programming provided through emerging communications technologies like video dialtone and satellite transmission, in a manner equivalent to cable franchise agreements providing public access channels and supporting facility operations and public, educational and government programming. Recommendations are to be made to the 1996 legislature. The Minnesota Department of Public Service will also study local franchise fees paid to local government and make recommendations to the 1996 legislature as to the purpose, amount and use of fees and related compensation paid to cities. Provisions of most sections take effect August 1, 1995 and expire January 1, 2006. Regulation of sale of local exchange service territory Chapter 191 requires the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (MPUC) to consent to the sale of local ex- change service territory by a phone company possessing annual revenues of more than $100 million dollars. Custom- ers must be notified at least 90 days prior to the sale of the company's intent to sell. Customers must also be informed of the proposed buyer and the affected local exchange. 1995 Law Summaries Page 19 Law summaries continued MPUC must hold a public hearing at least 30 days before deliberation to discuss the proposed sale. MPUC must not consent to the sale unless it establishes that at a minimum, the phone company has complied with quality of service standards for the previous year, the proposed buyer has thc financial resources to maintain service quality, and there are sufficiently trained employees to maintain required service levels. Commitments which require the buyer to maintain the minimum investment and staffing necessary to meet quality of service requirements and any other conditions, must be satisfied before MPLIC consents to tile sale. Provisions are effective December 31, 1995. Landlord made bill payer and customer of record on certain utility accounts Chapter 192 defines "single-metered residential build- lng' as a multi-unit residential rental building where utilit3 service for one or more separate living units and any common areas is measured through one meter, and makes the owner of these buildings the bill payer nnd customer of record for leasehold contracts entered into or renewed after August 1, 1995. A failure, by an owner, to advise utility providers when service applies 1o single-metered residential buildings will constitute a violation of certain provisions of Minnesota landlord4enant law. Legislation thai: did not become law Gary Carh'on, Ann Higgins. Joel Jamnik, Andrea A therton The 1995 legislative session was not short of ideas. Some would have had an adverse impact on municipal government, while a few would actually have benefitted cities and city officials. Tile following is a short list of ideas that wilt not become law. Be warned, all of these issues are candidates for action by the 1996 legislature. · Property tax freeze · Reverse referenda on city and county property tax increases · Ethics reform bill · 1996 Presidential PrimaO' · State primary, in June · Authorizing non-partisan election judges · Absentee voting reforms · Nompartisan election judges · Two-year term of office · Term limits · Takings · Public investments bill · Elimination of bond interest tax-exempt stalus · Sprinklers in high-rises · Wetlands reforms · Preemption of local authority to regulate tile sale of tobacco · Preemption of local regulation of slmoting ranges · Transportation funding:'gas tax increase · Tort liability limit increases · Train whistles in the night · Minimum wage increase · Pay equity penalties · Full funding for state mandates · State government reorganization · Abolition of towns · Governor's $77 million aid cut · Salary cap for local officials · Constitutional amendment for school funding · Tax deferment for seniors · Count)' and school approval for TIF · Annexation reforms · Local public employee pension plan modifications; · Inclusion of certain area-wide homestead property value in metro area · Regulation of government officials' entry, onto privale property Page 20 1995 Law Summaries Acknowledgment I would like to thank those members of the League IGR staff for their intensive efforts on behalf of cities throughout the 1995 legislative session. Ann Higgins and Joel Jamnik both played key roles on numerous issues and without their strong and tireless efforts the session would have turned out much differently. In addition, I would like to thank Andrea Atherton for her efforts on a broad array of issues and for her stamina in monitoring and working with legislators throughout the conference commit- tee process. The efforts of Mr. Jim Miller, Executive Director of the League, should also be noted. He was influential on the property tax freeze and the bond interest taxation debates. Mary Diedrich and Julie Johns provided excellent support for the IGR department and most of what you see or hear from our department is ultimately the product of their efforts. I would also like to thank Tim Busse, Gayle Brodt, Ron Will, Kandi Lu Morgan, and Laurie Brown who are the magicians behind the weekly Bulletin. The interaction of the variety of city lobbying groups was important to the overall success for cities in 1995. The efforts of the Association of Metropolitan Municipali- ties, the Association of Small Cities, the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities, the Range Association of Municipalities and School Districts, the Northern Metro Mayors Association, the Municipal Legislative Commission, as well as the individual efforts of the cities of St. Paul and Minneapolis all deserve special recognition. Most importantly, I would like to thank the city officials from throughout the state who took the time to communicate with their legislators on the variety of issues that arose during the 1995 legislative session. As your lobbyists, we can do our best to advocate interests of cities throughout the state. But our ultimate success is firmly grounded in your communications with your legislators. We hope we can maintain the momentum and interests of city officials through the 1996 session and beyond. The scope and magnitude of issues in the next several legislative sessions will likely eclipse the events of the last several sessions. Gary Carlson 1995 Law Summaries Page 21 1996 LGA and HACA estimates The following printout provides estimates for the 1996 LGA and HACA distributions for all cities. As this edition of Cities Bulletin went to press, the Governor has not yet signed the Omnibus Tax bill, he is expected to do so. These are only estimates. The final numbers certified by the Department of Revenue in July and August will be somewhat different due to updated formula factors. The first set of columns describe the 1995 LGA distribution and the estimated 1996 LGA distribution for each city and the dollar increase from t 995 to 1996. The LGA numbers are the initial formula amounts before reductions for state costs l-hr the State Auditor's Office, and other state agencies. These reductions will be factored in before the final certifications are announced in July. In 1995, the total reduction for stale costs was $489,152. For 1996, the dollar reduction will be approximately the same. The 1996 LGA estimates are based on an estimated appropriation increase of 3.1 percent. This percentage reflects the most recent estimate of the implicit price deflator increase for governmental goods and services. In 1994, the legislature eliminated the local government trust fund and replaced the dedicated sales tax revenues with an automatic inflation adjustment for the LGA formula. The 3.1 percent increase is subject to some modification, but the final increase will likely be in the three percent range. The estimated change for the 1996 LGA distribution also reflects that 1993 aid distribu- tion is the minimum distribution any city can receive. Distribution increases in 1994. 1995 and 1996 are subject to redistribution through the LGA formula. This means that the current LGA formula actually distributes $26 million or 7.4 percent of the total LGA distribution of $348 million. As formula factors change, the distribution above the 1993 level for any individual city increase or decrease. The LGA formula factors include the city's tax base, the percentage of housing built before 1940. the population, the change in population, and the percent of the local tax base classified as commercial or industrial. The second set of columns provide information on the 1996 HACA distributions as well as the change from the 1995 level. These estimates reflect the recently enacted $16 million cut in HACA to cities, counties, towns, and special taxing districts. Statewide. cities will share in approximately 44 percent of the overall cut. The city of Hermantown will receive an increase based upon special legislation enacted this year. Please remember that these are estimates only. and should only be used for planning purposes. The final formula amounts for LGA and HACA will also reflect annexations, consolidations, updated fiscal and demographic data, as well as final interpretations by the Department of Revenue.

We will be using the net proceeds i. lof $1,500 to $2,000. to fund our College Scholarship Program for 1995(a~'$1,000 -scholarship is given to a graduating senior from'the Columbia"~HelghtS~i.Hlgh School and another $1,000 scholarship is given to a senio.r'~!igraduating from the Fridley High School). Any residual funds will be used to help 'fund our annual Youth Leadership Institute ~which is attended by over 30 Junior Class high school students. The Youth Leadership Institute costs the club over $8,000 each year. The peaches that we will be selling from a semi-truck trailer or smaller refrigerated truck at the First Bank of Columbia Heights at 5250 Central Ave NE. We will be selling the peaches for $18.00 per case(lug) which holds from 40 to 50 peaches depending on size. We plan on selling the peaches from August 16 thru 19.

Respectfully, Charles Dettmann President cc: Dick Walquist Don Schneider June 29, 1995 Columbia Heights City Council 590 40th Ave NE Columbia Heights, MN 55421 Dear City Council Members: Enclosed is a license application for a single event club on sale beer license to allow the North Minneapolis Sertoma Club to sell beer in conjunction with the 17th Annual Letterman Sports Softball Tourna- ment to be held on July 28 and July 29th, 1995. It is our understanding that the Letterman Sports Tournament is an annual event held at Huset Park, The Club has been in contact with the Park and Rec Depts. of Columbia Heights to assure ourselves of the integrity and overall operation of this tournament. We have found that in the past 17 years no negative reports were on file regarding tournament activity. Therefore, it is our clubs intention to again operate the beer concession in conjunction with this event to raise funds for the many charitable organizations that we sponsor. The North Minneapolis Sertoma Club is a non-profit organization consisting of both men and women who donate their time and efforts through such fund-raising events. We donate these proceeds to organizations such as Alternatives for Autistic children, Camp Friendship, Camp Courage, and the speech and hearing impaired. We strongly feel that because our club is a non-profit organization and the proceeds will primarily be used to fund these charitable organizations, that the City Council once again waive the application and license fee. · Vice President North Minneapolis Sertoma Club TO: COLUMBIA HEIGHTS CITY COUNCIL FROM: LOWELL DEMARS SUBJECT: RENTAL PROPERTY LICENSE APPLICATIONS DATE: JULY 10, 1995 THE FOLLOWING LIST OF OWNERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE RENTAL PROPERTIES HAVE COMPLIED WITH THE PROVISIONAL LICENSING REQUIREMENTS OF THE CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS.

It is our understanding that the Letterman Sports Tournament is an annual event held at Huset Park, The Club has been in contact with the Park and Rec Depts. of Columbia Heights to assure ourselves of the integrity and overall operation of this tournament. We have found that in the past 17 years no negative reports were on file regarding tournament activity. Therefore, it is our clubs intention to again operate the beer concession in conjunction with this event to raise funds for the many charitable organizations that we sponsor. The North Minneapolis Sertoma Club is a non-profit organization consisting of both men and women who· donate their time and efforts through such fund-raising events. We donate these proceeds to organizations such as Alternatives for Autistic children, Camp Friendship, Camp Courage, and the speech and hearing impaired. We strongly feel that because our club is a non-profit organization and the proceeds will primarily be used to fund these charitable organizations, that the City Council once again waive the application and license fee. , erely, ,/ ;(} �--'-· Y1-, � � ennis M.

As per the attached application, the Kiwanis Club(a service club) will be selling fresh tree ripened peaches from Colorado as a fund raising project to support i~s youth projects. We will be using the net proceeds of $1,500 to $2,000 to fund our College Scholarship Program for 1995(a~$1,000 'scholarship is given to a graduating senior from the Columbia'~Heights': High School and another $1,000 scholarship is given to a senior'?graduating from the Fridley High School). Any residual funds will be used to help fund our annual Youth Leadership Institute -which is attended by over 30 Junior Class high school students. The Youth Leadership Institute costs the club over $8,000 each year. The peaches that we will be selling from a semi-truck trailer or smaller refrigerated truck at the First Bank of Columbia Heights at 5250 Central Ave NE. We will be selling the peaches for $18.00 per case(lug) which holds from 40 to 50 peaches depending on size. We plan on selling the peaches from August 16 thru 19. The peaches are tree ripened and delivered to Columbia Heights from Palisade, Colorado. We and the beneficiaries of our youth programs would sincerely appreciate your waiver of the $50.00 fee. If you have any questions in regard to this request, please contact Dick Walquist(Project Chair) at 788-3400 or Don Schneider at 782-2855(work) or 782-9410(home).
