Also Present: Kelli Bourgeois; Human Resources Director /Assistant to the City Manager, Kevin
Hansen; Public Works Director, Jesse Davies; Administrative Assistant Public Works, and Katie
Bruno; City Clerk
Discussion of amending Chapter 4 of the Refuse & Recycling Section of the City Code.
Jesse Davies; Administrative Assistant reported staff is proposing changes to Chapter 4 of the
City Code. The main goal is to reduce trash disposal, especially since the city pays separately
by the ton for disposal ($75 /ton).
The MPCA passed the latest version of the Metro Solid Waste Policy last April. In the
document they specify numerous RBMPs (Recycling Best Management Practices), including
weekly single -sort recycling, organics recycling, bulk recycling, and the goal to recycle 75% of
trash by 2030.
The Council reviewed various RBMPs and decided to keep all current services plus add service
for organics collection on the curb, and to reuse /recycle bulk (furniture, mattresses, and
carpet) where practicable. In addition, the City will provide a 30 gallon every- other -week trash
service option for those who participate in the curbside organics program.
The City will continue to operate weekly recycling center and conduct or coordinate more
recycling events.
The primary changes from the previous version are as follows:
*The addition of RBMPs into the suite of municipal provided services.
*An administrative fine has been added for those who dispose of hazardous waste into the
refusestream and dumping illegally at the Recycling Center. The ordinance also authorizes a
Solid Waste Operations Policy. Davies requested feedback from the council on the draft
policy.
Councilmember Buesgens questioned how much trash the City is currently recycling. Davies
indicated about 18 %.
Mayor Schmitt asked when residents can sign up for the yard waste carts. Davies stated the
program begins April 1St, and there will be information in the upcoming newsletter.

Gorman; Fire Chief, and Katie Bruno; City Clerk.
Discussion regarding Public Hearing for Revocation; 4625 and 4633 Tyler St.
Police Chief Lenny Austin reported there has been a disproportionate number of police calls for the
properties at 4625 and 4633 Tyler St. The property owner; Brad Schumacher has not been responsive.
Sergeant Andy Museus reviewed the Conduct on Licensed Premise and the Nuisance Calls for Service
ordinances. Museus reported Brad Schumacher has received three letters regarding Conduct on
Licensed Premise violations, requiring termination of the tenancy. Mr. Schumacher has not evicted any
of the problem tenants. In comparison with like properties in the City since 2009, the two properties
account for 5% of the 4- plexes and 20% of the calls for service.
Chief Austin reported a Crime Mitigation Plan was established in late in 2010. During that time, there
was a decrease in incidents, however calls have always been considerably higher than average. Austin
reported that Mr. Schumacher has failed to respond to recent communication.
Chief Austin reported that if the Council revokes the licenses; Mr. Schumacher will not be able to have a
landlord license for five years. Councilmember Buesgens and Novitsky commented that because no
effort has been made, they would support revocation. Councilmember Murzyn, Jr. and Williams agreed.
Councilmember Buesgens asked if assistance will be offered to the other tenants in the buildings. Austin
confirmed that there are agencies available to assist.

Minutes of the Meeting
December 13, 2017
David Payne called the meeting to order at 5:30 p.m.
Roll Call
Members present: Anne Carder, Sean Clerkin, Bruce Evans, Kevin McDonald, David Payne, Marsha Stroik
Staff present: Kevin Hansen, Public Works Director; Keith Windschitl, Recreation Director; Deanna
Saefke, Commission Secretary; Connie Buesgens, Council Liaison
Approval Consent Agenda
Clerkin asked if the Onsite Sanitation was used at the parks year round. Hansen replied at some parks
there is a satellite there all year. For example at the parks where DNR grant money is received there
needs to be one there all year.
Motion by Clerkin, second by McDonald, to approve the consent agenda. Upon vote: All ayes. Motion
Carried.
Letters and Requests
A. Request from SACA to waive the park rental fee for the use of Silver Lake Park for the annual Polar
Plunge fundraiser on January 27, 2018.
Windschitl indicated Dave Rudolph from SACA submitted a park permit and request to waive the fee for
the park usage at Silver Lake Park for the Polar Plunge Fundraiser on January 27, 2018. In the past the
fee has been waived and it was added as long as the group provides a copy of their liability insurance
listing the City of Columbia Heights as additional insured.
Motion by Stroik, second by Carder, to approve the request to waive the park usage fee for the SACA
Polar Plunge on January 27, 2018, as long as the group provides a copy of their liability insurance listing
the City as additional insured. Upon vote: All ayes. Motion Carried.
Old Business
A. Keyes Park Master Plan
Hansen presented a revised version of the Keyes Park Master Plan. The main revision is to pull both
fields back by thirty feet, and to put the player's bench in the back stop. This pulls everything about 60
feet away from where sliders might come down the hill. Staff will redirect any slider down the hill with
plastic snow fencing to avoid the backstop. Hansen indicated the intent is to have each outfield
separated so that both fields could be used at one time. This plan also indicates the ability to have a
soccer field that will overlay an existing playing field. One concern from Windschitl is when an overlay
happens with a soccer field on the outfield of a baseball or softball playing field, there is a lot of wear
and tear on the outfields. Hansen stated that when that type of overlay happens on a primary field there
should be some type of irrigation. The irrigation would be bid as an add - alternate. Clerkin asked if a plan
could happen without the overlay. Hansen replied it could if the soccer field size was smaller. Hansen
replied all of the Master Plan elements are included with slightly revising the location of the fields,
pulling them west by thirty feet, and also pulling the backstops back about fifty to sixty feet. If the
Commission accepts the changes the plans will be sent for rebid. Stroik asked if by pulling the fields back
21
City of Columbia Heights December 13, 2017
Park & Recreation Commission Minutes of the Meeting Page 2
if it will impact anything planned on the west side. Hansen replied no, it will not. Hansen reported
currently on site at the park is 3000 cubic yards of dirt from a road project which will be used to build
the two fields. The playground equipment has been delivered; this was funded in part by a grant. In the
ice rink contaminated material is being held and will be removed to a landfill in the spring. Clerkin asked
if the hockey rink will be removed in the master plan. Hansen replied yes and staff is in the process of
removing the boards. He stated that by having staff remove the hockey rink, remove the backstops, and
installing the playground equipment the hope is to cut $30,000 to $50,000 dollars from the bids
received. The plan is to go to bid in early January and report back to the Commission in February. Stroik
asked if the City applied for any of the Super Bowl grants or if we were even eligible. Hansen replied no.
The grant for this particular project was a 50/50 grant for the cost of the playground equipment.
Hansen reported one other cost savings adjustment is to end the walking trail on Reservoir Boulevard
and not to continue the trail down the hill at this time. Having the trail going down the hill would be
difficult to construct, to maintain, and could present potential hazards with that steep of a hill. The trail
will have somewhat of a turnaround with some benches. Hansen indicated this will a good alignment for
the two ballfields. Stroik replied it will also protect the sliders on the hill. Payne asked where the parking
lot will be. Hansen replied the primary parking will be off of 46th and the south side will have about ten
spaces of pull in curb parking similar to what is at Ramsdell Park.
Motion by Clerkin, second by Carder, to accept the changes to the Keyes Park Master Plan; moving the
fields back from the original location by thirty feet, and to place the players benches in the backstop.
Upon vote: All ayes. Motion Carried.
B. Dog Park Petition
Hansen indicated the process will be to have the Commission review the requirements of a dog park and
evaluate a location on a park by park basis. There are fifteen parks and the process will be similar for
each park. Staff will list the criteria for a dog park and in this case we are looking at a size of eight tenths
of an acre up to 1.2 acres as listed by the American Kennel Club. This size will be laid out in the parks to
see what arrangement makes the most sense. Staff picked Hilltop Park for the first example based on
the size of the park. You can evaluate what the impacts are, and look at adjacent uses. For instance at
Hilltop Park there is plenty of on street parking the entire park backs up either directly to or is across the
street from residential housing. Staff would go through and note what some of the conditions are, such
as this example, on a park by park basis. The findings would be brought back to the Commission for
review on each city park. Hansen indicated this proposed park evaluation process is to give the
Commission information to then evaluate the one or two parks that might be best suited for a dog park
and to bring that proposed park usage into the comprehensive plan. He stated the received petition was
not to actually install a dog park in any given year but the petition was to have a dog park represented
within the Comprehensive Plan the City is currently working on.
Clerkin asked if what is currently being presented at Hilltop Park is to give the group a preliminary idea
of what the process would look like going forward with each individual park. Hansen replied yes. He
asked if this format works for the members and if the information presented makes sense. Carder asked
if the two colors on the park overlay indicated the areas for big dogs versus smaller dogs. Hansen replied
no it represents the area needed if the dog park was .8 acres or 1.2 acres. One other item to note in
each park staff would be looking for an area to include a dog park where not much site grading would be
needed. Stroik stated that a dog park would not obviously fit into every park. Hansen replied no. In
Hilltop Park for example a dog park would occupy the whole park space. Hansen stated in the criteria is
to evaluate if there are other conflicting adjacent uses. Do you want to have dogs barking and running in
an area that is right next to a playground or near houses? Clerkin asked if higher fencing is required if
22
City of Columbia Heights December 13, 2017
Park & Recreation Commission Minutes of the Meeting Page 3
the dog park is adjacent to residential property. Hansen replied that is a consideration. Some
recommendations for dog park fencing are a six foot high fence. Payne asked if Lomianki Park is being
considered. Hansen replied that this process will occur for each city park. Commission members agreed
that a playground should not be removed for a dog park and that having one near residential housing
should be avoided if possible. Hansen encouraged the Commission to discuss the evaluations at a future
meeting and determine one, two, orthree parks where a potential dog park could be located that meets
most of the criteria. This would be included in the Comprehensive Plan. Clerkin agrees this is a good way
to evaluate each park.
New Business
None at this time.
Reports
A. Recreation Director
Windschitl reported the new recreation employee, Carissa Goebel, has started as the part time athletic
coordinator. We are also playing in a new basketball league that includes Coon Rapids, Fridley, Spring
Lake Park, Blaine, and a few other organizations. This has been a good league to be in so far for the
youth girl's teams. The boys will be starting soon. Coaches are needed for the boy's teams if anyone
knows of anyone that could help. There are three to four teams already filled with students that need a
coach. These teams practice at the Hylander Center. Buesgens asked if the need for coaches was posted
on any Facebook pages. Saefke replied yes, weeks ago on various pages. Stroik suggested using the Next
Door app with community groups based on the area of the neighborhood.
Stroik asked if the elementary school gyms are being used for practices. Windschitl replied no, not by
our teams. There have been many conflicts in the past years. It can be a regularly scheduled practice or
class and it gets bumped last minute for concerts or conferences. He gets concerned when this has
happened because if a child gets dropped off at the curb by their parent and go to the door and it is
locked they might not have a way to reach their parent. He is thankful for the Hylander Center gym so
that the department can schedule programs as needed without conflicts. Stroik doesn't understand why
the schedule isn't clear at the beginning of the year when everything is booked. Windschitl stated that
the Hylander Center is used for practices on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. Wednesday evenings
remains a community open gym night. Saefke reported the youth Sports Sampler happens five different
evenings at Valley View. Windschitl indicated the Hylander Center gym also has the capability to lower
the basketball hoops for the 2nd grade teams for example.
Buesgens asked if any complaints were received by the resident next door to the community garden.
Windschitl replied not this year, but he has spoken with him in the past. Buesgens replied hearing his
complaint was that when the community gardens are being cleared out the people throw rocks in his
year. Windschitl replied it would be easy to have buckets at the garden to collect rocks.
B. Public Works Director /City Engineer
Hansen reported over the course of the winter staff are updating the park plan. Updates are being listed
for the changes within the parks such as addition of the splash pad, and new playground equipment at
five or six parks. The City of Fridley did this on an interactive web page so that anyone can see what
amenities are at each park.
Hansen reported the Canadian Pacific Holiday Train was a great event. The train was on time at 7:45
p.m., the stage came down at 8:00 p.m., and they performed for about 30 minutes, and took about 10
minutes to pull away. It was estimated about 3000 people were in attendance. The site could fit closer

to 500 people. Buesgens stated the fire rings were a great addition. Hansen replied the fire rings are four
feet in diameter, they were made for this event, the fire department monitored the fires, and public
works staff picked them up after the event. Buesgens asked how many years this train has stopped in
Columbia Heights. Hansen replied this is the second year at this location. Payne stated the holiday train
started in 1999.
C. Commission Members
None at this time.
Saefke reported that at the city employee holiday luncheon Windschitl and Hansen were recognized for
twenty years of service. The city manager gave compliments to them both. Commission Members
congratulated them.

SHORT TERM GOAL (IF APPLICABLE):
Additional Goal?
BACKGROUND:
The City annually conducts a sanitary sewer lining program to rehabilitate sections of sanitary sewer pipe that
have been televised and found to be deteriorating, have cracked or broken joints or sections, contain root
intrusion or have infiltration present. The 2017 program consisted of lining 3,850 LF of 8" vitrified clay pipe
(VCP) sanitary sewer and 333 LF of 8%Z" VCP.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
As part of the Street Rehabilitation work, staff annually reviews the condition of the underground utilities. For
the sanitary sewer lines, recent inspection logs may be used or the lines may be televised. Staff then makes a
determination if any corrective action is necessary. During the Main Street and 37th Avenue State Aid Street
Rehabilitation area investigation, the segments of 8" VCP sanitary sewer in Main Street, from 37th to 40th
Avenues, was found to have moderate to heavy root infiltration and cracked pipes. With the delay in the Mill
and Overlay construction to summer /fall, staff is recommending accelerating the lining of the Main Street
segments by adding these to the 2017 contract. Hydro - Klean's contract bid price of $20.60 per lineal foot
would be applied, plus mobilization.
The 2018 Sanitary Sewer Lining program will be reduced by the amount of the change order.
Staff recommends approval of Change Order No. 2 for the 2017 Sanitary Sewer Lining Project 1704.
RECOMMENDED MOTION(S):
Move to approve contract Change Order No. 2 to Hydro -Klean LLC for the 2017 Sanitary Sewer Lining, Project

SHORT TERM GOAL (IF APPLICABLE):
Additional Goal?
BACKGROUND:
The main goal of Columbia Heights Solid Waste Management is to reduce trash disposal, especially since the
City pays separately (by the ton) for waste hauling and disposal. The MPCA (Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency) has a mandate from the MN State Legislature for the state to be recycling 7S% by 2030. The MPCA
passed the latest version of the Metro Solid Waste Policy last April. In the document they specify numerous
RBMPs (Recycling Best Management Practices), including weekly single -sort recycling, organics recycling, and
bulk recycling. They are expecting and have been encouraging counties and cities in the metro area to begin
implementing some of these RBMPs. The MPCA also distributes the SCORE (recycling grant) funds to the
counties.
Last month, the City Council passed ordinance 1646 to update City Code Chapter 4: Municipal Services,
Article VII: Refuse and Recycling Services. The new code authorizes a Solid Waste Operations Policy which has
been developed and recommended by City staff that establishes goals, policy plans, and City procedures for
garbage, single -sort recycling, recycling center, problem materials, reuse, yard waste and organics recycling
operations in the City of Columbia Heights.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff has developed a proposed policy which includes a mechanism for goal setting and policy planning. It
also establishes City procedures and standards for the total refuse operation. Some of the unique features
and highlights of this policy are:
• Allows split residential /commercial properties to opt out of the City provided refuse services.
• Allows all properties to order larger and /or additional single -sort recycling carts for no added cost.
• Doubles all multi -unit recycling volume by providing weekly service. Also requires rental properties to
include expectations for recycling in tenant lease agreements. The City will provide free tenant
recycling kits when requested by residential rental properties.
• Authorizes that the City study methods to increase the materials allowed in single -sort recycling.
• The City will annually recognize Recycling Champions.
• Creates a curbside bulk (furniture, mattresses, carpet) reuse /recycling stream rather than trash
disposal. Provides that the City may use a local service organization to accomplish this task.
• Organizes City reuse operations such as clothing collection from multi- units, local service organization
event support such as Fix -It Clinic and Citywide Garage Sale day.
• Changes the standards for yard waste collection: 1) Households must use compostable bags (owner
provided) or the City provided yard waste /organics cart; 2) The City Contractor will not empty

Introduction
The City of Columbia Heights has developed these standards as specific requirements for the storage,
collection and transportation of residential solid waste. The goals of these standards are to:
♦ Establish a system for the orderly and regular collection of garbage, recyclables, problem
materials, organics, and yard wastes in the city;
♦ Ensure that the disposal of the materials shall be accomplished in a sanitary manner;
♦ Ensure the protection of public health and safety and promote city cleanliness and livability;
♦ Minimize vehicle wear and tear on streets due to large truck traffic;
♦ Provide high quality solid waste and recycling services in the most cost - effective manner
possible;
♦ Be consistent with the requirements of the state statutes, state rules and Anoka County
ordinances, and with state and Anoka County solid waste plans; and,
♦ Implement the City's Garbage and Recycling Services Ordinance, Chapter 4 of the City's code
of ordinances through detailed instructions.
To accomplish the above goals, it is important for the city to have specific and consistent instructions
for residents to follow as part of the waste and recyclables collection system. These standards do not
replace or supersede city ordinances. The City Manager's authority for adopting or amending these
standards comes from Chapter 4: Municipal Services, Article VII: Refuse and Recycling Services.
These standards address:
♦ Garbage, problem material, recyclables, yard waste and other waste collection and disposal
requirements;
♦ Recycling programs; and,
♦ Other collection system details that are part of the city's garbage collection system.
Section 1 Definitions

Section 2 Goals and Plans
2.1 Background: The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) is mandated by the state
legislature to recycle 75% of solid waste by 2030. The MPCA approved the latest version of
the Metro Solid Waste Policy April 2017. In the document they specify numerous RBMPs
(Recycling Best Management Practices) including organics recycling and bulk recycling.
They are expecting and have been encouraging counties and cities in the metro area to begin
implementing some of these RBMPs. The MPCA manages the SCORE (Select Committee On
Recycling and the Environment) funds and distributes it to the counties.
2.2 Organized Collection: It is the intent of the City Council to continue an organized collection
system for the orderly and regular collection of garbage, recyclables, problem materials,
source separated organic materials, yard waste, and other wastes in the city; to insure that
the disposal of the materials shall be accomplished in a sanitary manner; to ensure the
protection of public health and safety and promote city cleanliness and livability; to minimize
vehicle wear and tear on streets due to large truck traffic; to provide high quality solid waste
and recycling services in the most cost - effective manner possible; and, to be consistent with
the requirements of the state statutes, state rules and Anoka County ordinances, and with
state and Anoka County solid waste plans.
2.3 Goals: The main goal of Columbia Heights Solid Waste Management is to reduce trash
disposal, especially since the City pays separately by the ton for disposal. The more the city
recycles the fewer trash tons and lower costs. By implementing some of the RBMPs the City
expects to increase recycling tonnage 12% over the next two years.
2.4 Solid Waste Management Plan.
2.4.1 Trash: The City will follow county and state waste management plans and policies for disposal
of solid wastes. Therefore, most of the trash collected by the City's organized system will be
incinerated at a Refuse to Fuel facility to generate electricity.
2.4.2 Curbside: The City of Columbia Heights will provide full service recycling programs with various
city run curbside collections including: Unlimited single -sort recycling, Organics comingled with
yard waste recycling, Bulk (furniture, mattresses, carpet) reuse /recycling, Electronics recycling,
Appliance recycling, Christmas tree recycling, Multi- dwellings included, plus City buildings and
events recycling.
2.4.3 Recycling Center: The City, in partnership with a local volunteer service organization, will
operate a weekly drop -off center which is very convenient for Southern Anoka County residents
to keep hazardous materials out of the waste and for recycling of special items that are not
acceptable in the single sort system. The city will also use the center as a "test site" to work
with the MRF (Materials Recovery Facility) to increase the materials allowed in single sort
recycling. A local volunteer service organization will also conduct the MN Composting Council's
"Plate to Garden Compost" fundraiser at the recycling center to promote organics recycling and
to return fresh compost for participating households.
Page 3
34
2.4.4 Reuse: The City will also coordinate with local reuse vendors such as Southern Anoka
Community Assistance for drop -off of clothing and other household goods. Plus we will
coordinate with the DAV to partner with several multi - dwellings for collection of those items.
The City will also assist local volunteer service organizations with organizing reuse events such
as Fix -it Clinic, and the Citywide Garage Sale weekend. A local volunteer service organization
and BRIDGING may also assist with the bulk collection and reuse /recycling program.
2.4.5 Promotions /Education: The City will conduct extensive promotions including two citywide
flyers and direct outreach to multi and other rental properties (including tenant recycling kits).
Plus we will produce localized publications for spring /fall cleaning and garage sale reuse and
recycling information. The City will promote recycling through its own entire communication
means monthly. The City is offering a 30 gallon every- other -week trash service option in
conjunction with organics recycling, plus there will be an educational requirement as well so
the City may also help coordinate an Anoka County Master Recycler Course. The City may also
require residential rental properties to add tenant recycling expectations to the lease
agreement. The City will recognize those Recycling Champions who's properties increase
recycling and /or utilize the organics recycling service.
Section 3 General Operations
3.1 Services Required: Every Residential Premise shall use the collection service provided by the
City as directed in City Code CHAPTER 4: MUNICIPAL SERVICES. Multi- dwellings are
considered residential properties for the purpose of refuse operations, but other split use
properties with both dwelling units and commercial units can opt out of the City provided
refuse services.
3.2 Policy Changes: The City manager has the authority to change portions of this policy for
those operations that will have a financial effect under their limit of spending and remains
within budget constraints. The Council can review and update at their discretion or for
financial changes above the City Manager limits. The City will solicit bids for contracted
services at the end of each agreement period.
3.3 Schedule Notification: Collection shall occur on days and in areas designated by the City.
Schedule changes may be made for major holidays, or for adverse weather conditions. The
City will post a news flash on the website and social media for unscheduled service delays.
Collection days may only be permanently modified with the prior approval of the City
Manager. The City shall notify each premise of any change in collection day four (4) weeks
before the change and again one (1) week before the change.
3.4 Collection Points: Directed per City Code CHAPTER 8: PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY, except
as otherwise described in this policy. Properties must have their containers set out for

MUNICIPAL SERVICES. Any markings that appear on the outside of the carts or dumpsters
that are not placed there by the hauler or the City shall be promptly removed by the
customer. The City shall own the carts; residents are granted exclusive use of the carts at
their address only. If a resident moves, the carts shall remain at the assigned premise.
3.6 Service Changes: Official changes will be made through the City and the hauler will be
notified. If temporary discontinuation of collection is desired by the premise due to vacancy
of the property, the request shall be made to the City. Approval or denial of the request
shall be at the sole discretion of the City.
3.7 Customer Service: The contract hauler and other refuse vendors will perform customer
service operations as dictated in contracts and agreements as supervised by the City.

include, but may not be limited to: problem materials, tree and shrub waste, other yard
waste, automotive parts or fluids, electronic waste, or hazardous waste. Garbage must be
handled according to CHAPTER 8: PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY. If the hauler determines a
trash container is too contaminated with non - disposable materials, service will not be
provided, nor will a refund be authorized. Collection of materials can be provided by the
contracted hauler when issues are resolved.
4.4 Service Levels: There are also two classifications of household trash services which are "Full

7.3 Container Standards: Must follow City Code CHAPTER 4: MUNICIPAL SERVICES. Those who
choose to use the City provided cart will not need to bag or bundle the yard waste.
Household owned reusable containers will not be used to contain yard waste for collection

week in the winter. Yard waste comingled with organics in City provided carts will be
collected on the curb during the season, except properties where it is physically challenging
due to the landscape of the front yard, then it will be collected in the alley. Organics will be
collected in the alley during the winter for all properties with alleys; otherwise organics is

CITY STRATEGY: #7: Strong Infastructure /Public Services /
Additional Strategy? #7: Strong Infastructure /Public Services
SHORT TERM GOAL (IF APPLICABLE):
Additional Goal?
BACKGROUND: Fire Department mobile and portable radios were purchased in 2004 when Anoka County
upgraded to the 800 MHz radio system. Motorola, the radio manufacturer will be discontinuing service and
support for the mobile radios in 2018 and for the portable radios in 2019. Due to the number and cost of
radios all of the Fire Department mobile radios and approximately half of the portable radios are budgeted to
be replaced this year. The remainder of the radios will be budgeted for in 2019. The radios are used in the
Anoka County radio system so the radio specs are predetermined for us.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends purchasing the replacement radios and accessories from
Motorola Solutions per State contract 119587. A copy of the spec and price sheet is included. The specs have
been reviewed and approved by Anoka County Central Communications. Additional accessories will be
purchased from Ancom Communications.
RECOMMENDED MOTION(S):
MOTION: Move to authorize the purchase of radios and accessories in the amount of $81,248.00 from
Motorola Solutions per State Contract #119587 and additional accessories from Ancom Communications in
the amount of $1225.00.
MOTION: Move to authorize the Fire Chief to expend up to $2500.00 for the installation of the radios.

SHORT TERM GOAL (IF APPLICABLE):
Additional Goal?
BACKGROUND: At their August 22, 2016 meeting the City Council accepted the Master Plan for Keyes ParK
and authorized the preparation of plans.
An amount of $350,000 was budgeted in the 2017 Parks Capital Improvement Fund and $75,000 from the
Storm Water Fund. Plans and specifications were advertised for bids. Two bids were received and publicly
read aloud at the August 22, 2017 bid opening. Both bids came in above the engineer's estimate. At the
August 28, 2017 meeting the City Council moved to reject all bids for Keyes Park Improvements, Project
Number 1610, and authorized staff to seek new bids over the winter of 2017/2018.
Plans and specifications were modified and advertised for bids in the Sun Focus, the City website and
QuestCDN. Nine bids were received and publicly read aloud at the February 27, 2018 bid opening. The high
bid was $646,562 and the low bid $409,575. A detailed bid tabulation is available from the City Engineer.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the low bid from Odesa II, LLC staff is recommending contract award
of the base bid with alternates 3 -7 and 10. As an item that had been talked about during the public meetings
and plan development, the Council may wish to consider adding alternate 1 which provides a sidewalk along
45th Avenue from the park and then along the back of the curb down to 44th Avenue.
The alternates and low bid pricing from Odesa II are described as follows:
Base Bid:
Add Alternates:
1 -45th Avenue and McCleod Sidewalk and Trail
2-46 th Avenue and Reservoir Sidewalk
3 — Bleachers (2)
4 — Players Benches (4)
5 — Park Benches (3)
6 —Trash and Recycling Receptacles (4)
7 — Bicycle Rack (1)
8 — Portable Restroom Enclosure
9 — Furnish and Install Trees (28)
10 — Parking Lot on 45th Avenue

The base bid is approximately 9.3% less than the engineer's estimate of $451,000.
The base bid plus alternates is consistent with the engineer's estimate of $451,000.
RECOMMENDED MOTION(S): Accept bids and award the Keyes Park Improvement Project, City Project No.
1610, including Alternates 3 -7 and 10 to Odesa II LLC of Sauk Rapids, Minnesota based upon their low,
qualified, responsible bid in the amount of $452,810.50 with funds to be appropriated from Fund 412 -51610
and Fund 652 - 51610; and, furthermore, to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into a contract for

RE: Bid Recommendation for Keyes Park Site Improvements
Columbia Heights, Minnesota
Kevin,
On February 27, 2018, a Public Bid Opening was held for the Keyes Park Site Improvements project. Nine
compliant bids were received, with base bids ranging from $409,575.00 to $646,562.00. In addition to
the base bid, this project also included alternate options as outlined within the attached bid tabulation.
Note that there were minor math errors associated with four of the nine bids, however these errors only
occurred with the alternate options and did not affect the overall results.
ISG has reviewed the received bids and finds the base bid, submitted by Odesa II, acceptable in the
amount of $409,575.00, which was slightly lower than the engineer's estimate of $451,415.50.
Odesa II has previous experience performing this type of work, including previously contracted work that
was performed with both the City of Columbia Heights and Amanda Prosser, and we feel they are fully
capable of completing the project per the plans and specifications.
We recommend that the City of Columbia Heights award the contract to Odesa II for the total base bid of
$409,575.00, along with alternate options 3 -7 and 10 as selected by the City in the amount of $13,600,
and $29,635.50, respectively, for a total Contact amount of $452,810.50. The City may also consider
accepting alternate bid item 1, as during the public input and design development phases this option was
noted as a priority. If the City chooses to accept alternate bid item 1 in the amount of $38,011.00, the
total Contract amount would be $490,821.50.
We look forward to continuing to work with you as the project moves forward. If you have any questions
or would like to discuss further, please contact me at 952.426.0699.
Sincerely,
Amanda Prosser, PLA, ASLA
Associate Principal + Practice Group Leader
