This width will accommodate parking on both sides of the street. He noted that the street presently needs some work such as an overlay, curb replacement in some locations and perhaps reconstruction down to the subgrade. Regarding maintenance, he noted that City crews wi 11 perform the work but it will be paid for with State Aid funds. Councilmember Nawrocki recalled where some streets in the City were designated as State Aid streets and parking restrictions were placed on them after the designation. He also noted that another negative could be that this designation affords usage of the street by trucks. While he supports the designation, he wanted to be sure that the residents on Mill Street were aware of these possibilities. Councilmember Clerkin inquired if this designation would prohibit any restrictions being put on Mill Street by the City such as closing or parking during such events as the Jamboree. The Public Works Director responded that City restrictions would not be prohibited. Motion by Ruettimann, second by Peterson to waive the reading of the resolution there being ample copies available for the public.

Jo-Anne Student, Deputy City Clerk REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING JULY 27, 1992 PAGE 4 b.Public Information Hearing License for_ Taxi CaJ� Operator The City Manager advised that the license application contains a waiver signed by the applicant so this matter can be discussed at a public meeting. He also noted that if the license application is denied that the applicant must be notified by letter of his riqhts to aqgrieve the denial and the timeframe for reapplying. The applicant, William Frank Green, stated his reasons for requesting Council approval of his application. Counci !member Nawrocki felt it would be desirable to view this applicant as someone who is being rehabilitated and is desirous of having meaningful employment. He suggested that staff contact Mr. Green's probation officer. The City Manager felt the recommendation for denial made by the Police Department was directly influenced by the types of crimes for which the applicant had been convicted. He noted that taxi driver licenses had been issued to others who had been convicted of crimes which were not related to the operation of a vehicle nor would facilitate selling of narcotics. Mayor Murzyn stated he could not support approval of the application because of the applicant's criminal history and the recommendation of the Police Department.

He feels that all the costs for this water testing should come from the City's Water Fund. Discussion continued regarding the reserves in the Water Fund and the appropriate use of these reserves. REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING JULY 27, 1992 PAGE 5 Counci !member Clerkin inquired if there are any programs available to property owners who may have to replace their service. The Puhl ic Works Director responded there are no programs in place at this time but some solutions are being explored for funding from water suppliers. Motion by Nawrocki that no fee be charged to property owners for the federal and state water testing program in 1992. Motion dies for lack of a second. Councilmember Ruettimann suggested that this might be a project where the City shares the cost of the testing with the property owners on a 50/50 basis. Motion by resolution being paid City. Ruettimann, second by Clerkin to amend the to include a 50/50 split of the testing fee, half by the property owner and half being paid by the Councilmember Nawrocki observed that all of the fee will be coming from the same pocketbook.

Counci !member Nawrocki felt consideration should be given as to how these corrections would impact on abutting alleys, curbs, streets and garage aprons.

He reviewed the benefits of a paved alley which are reduction of maintenance costs, a smoother ride and decreased vehicle maintenance. City crews will be doing all of the construction work on the three alleys. The City Manager advised that some of the measurements of abutting properties were incorrect. He cited the correct measurements for six properties. The Public Works Director stated that the base in this alley was in fair condition and possibly a partial reconstruction could be done which would reduce the costs to an estimated $20.60 per foot. All driveway aprons will be replaced "in kind" where needed and there will be a crown change which will divert water from back yards. He reviewed al 1 of the costs associated with the project. Councilmember Nawrocki felt the engineering costs were very high. The Public Works Director noted that engineering costs are usually fifteen percent of the project1 eight percent for engineering and seven percent for inspection work. Residents of the area stated their opinions regarding this project. One resident felt the base should not be removed as it appears to be in good condition. He noted that the angles at each end make it difficult to turn into or out of the alley. The Public Works Director stated that the alternate proposal recommends removing only a portion of the base and to regrade and reshape the alley. Many residents stated their concern with speedinq in the alley and with motorists using the alley to avoid a wait at the signal on 37th and Central Avenues. Staff will follow up on these concerns. Mayor Murzyn noted that there are forty-six properties which will benefit from this project. Six properties are represented at this meeting and there appeared to be no consensus regarding project approval. Motion by Nawrocki, second by·c1erkin to deny the project.

Roll call: All ayes c.Project 9107 -P.I.R. 875, Alley Construction from PetersPlace to Reservoir Boulevard Between Peters Place andGould Avenue The Public Works Director advised this alley has never had a paved surface. It has been maintained with a gravel surface. He felt this gravel surface could be considered for an alternative to putting in an asphalt base thereby saving some costs. This alley had been considered for reconstruction in 1985. Some of the engineering and inspection costs had been brought forward from that time and included in the costs for this proposal. The Public Works Director recommended that all of the engineering and inspection costs brought forward from 1985 be removed from the proposal. Motion by Ruettimann, second by Murzyn to approve the project with the City paying half of the costs ($39.00 per foot) from the Undesignated General Fund Reserve. There are nine properties in this assessment project. One letter was received stating the property owners' opposition to the project. One property owner at the hearing was in favor of the project and four others at the hearing were opposed.

W. ANDERSON DA TE: 07 /22/92 CITY MGR APPROVAL At the July 13, 1992, City Council Meeting, the Police Department recommended that the City Council not issue an taxi cab operator's license to William Frank Green, DOB 3/29/52. A discussion followed with Basil Wissner, General Manager of Town Taxi, speaking on Mr. Green's behalf. The City Council tabled the discussion to the July 27, 1992, Council meeting. Attached please find: 1)A memo from Sergeant Jendro to Chief Mawhorter. 2)A memo from Chief Mawhorter to Linda Magee. 3)A copy of State Statute, Chapter 364, Criminal Off enders, Rehabilitation.4)Mr. Green's application for a taxi cab operator's license, including a waiver to disseminate anddiscuss in public information about Mr. Green. Records from the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office indicate that Mr. Green has been arrested and convicted for the following offenses: 1)1970, simple assault 2)1975, possession of a hand gun without a permit 3)1987, possession of a controlled substance (cocaine with intent to sell) 4)1990, possession of a controlled substance (marijuana). Mr. Green is presently on probation for thisoffense and will be until May 13, 1994. In addition, Mr. Green has received a traffic tag for speeding on six occasions. While the State policy is to assist criminal offenders to secure employment, I believe that Mr. Green's prior conduct demonstrates that he should not be awarded a taxi cab operator's license. Columbia Heights, in the past, has awarded taxi cab operators' licenses to persons with criminal records, but not with records as extensive and as recent as Mr. Green's. When one balances our obligation to protect the public versus Mr. Green's need to be employed as a taxi cab operator in Columbia Heights, I believe the City Council should decide in favor of public safety. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to deny William Frank Green a taxi cab operator's license. COUNCIL ACTION: TO: F'Rai: SUBJECT: DATE: COLUMBIA HEIGHTS POLICE DEPARTMENT Linda Magee, Assistant to City Manager David P. Mawhorter, Chief of Police � Taxi License of William Green July 15, 1992 Attached is a report from Sergeant Jendro answering the questions you requested further information on a few days ago. As the report indicates, Mr. Green is not licensed to drive a cab anywhere in the area. He has what I would consider to be an active and violent criminal history, p.mctuated by convictions for robbery, sale and possession of marijuana and cooaine, and possession of a weapon. I would continue my recommendation for denial based on this person's criminal history.

Her responses to the infonnation Cotmcil requested is attached.

Green, I would answer the four questions in the following manner: 1.How is he functioning in the community?To my knowledge, Mr. Green is functioning at a satisfactory level.He has not displayed any signs of emotional instability. 2.Does he present a potential risk to the community?According to our classification system, Mr. Green is viewed as amedium risk to the community. He is supervised according to thislevel. 3.Is he conforming with the requirements of probation?Mr. Green has complied with the conditions imposed by the Court.He has also met with me, on a monthly basis, as is required. 4.Should he be driving a taxi based on his past history? s Since I am not familiar with policies regarding being a taxi driver,I cannot answer this question. I can only say I am aware he isemployed as a cab driver and that this does not constitute a violationof his probation. I hope this information has been helpful. �� Debra A.

Mawhorter, Chief of Police FROM, Robert Jendro, Sergeant SUBJECT, WILLIAM F. GREEN LICENSE DENIAL DATE1 July 15, 1992 On July 14, 1992, I was given a file by Chief Mawhorter which included references made at a Council meeting held on the 13th of July, 1992. There were questions about my denial of a cab license to a William r. Green at the Council meeting, in which the Council felt that they were told by a Town Taxi official that Hr. Green had been licensed in other cities in the area to drive cab. I contacted Hr. Green by phone and he called back at approximately 1630 hours on July 14, 1992. I asked Hr. Green if he had any valid licenses to drive cab -in the area. He stated that he indeed had none, that he had not been granted a license to drive a cab anywhere yet. He stated his first application was here in Columbia Heights. He also stated that he was not at the Council meeting, and he was sorry that theie was any misinterpretation of information given by the Town Taxi official. I advised Hr. Green that the Council would be reassessing his request at the July 27 Council meeting, and it would probably be in his best interests if he were to be present at that meeting. On July 15, 1992, I contacted the Hennepin County Records Division and asked that they fax me all records that they have for William r. Green, date of birth 03/29/52. Shortly thereafter, I received by fax from Hennepin County Adult Detention Center, a record of all of Hr. Green's incarcerations in the Hennepin County Jail. There were three in 1970; one in 1974, which was a weapons violation, carrying a weapon without a license; one in 1987 for Possession with Intent to Sell Cocaine; and a 1990 Possession of Narcotics, which the jail believed to have been marijuana. -This was attached to the information given to ae by Chief Mawhorter.

HISTORY On September 16, 1935, a Special Election was held wherein the voters in Columbia Heights overwhelmingly favored the establishment of an exclusive on-and off-sale municipal liquor store. The first store was opened at 4024 Central Avenue in November of 1935. Later, the store was moved to 4050 Central A venue, then to 4017 Central Avenue, before moving to 4025 Central A venue in December of 1955. The store remained at this location until September 1981, when it was sold to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority to allow for redevelopment of that block into the Columbia Heights Mall. The voters again had the opportunity to support municipal liquor on June 12, 1961, with the choice between staying with municipal liquor or going to private liquor licenses. The vote at that election again supported staying with municipal liquor. After that election, the City moved liquor store #2, located at 3856 University Avenue, to 322 40th Avenue and constructed a new liquor store at 5225 University Avenue. The City had three liquor stores until 1981, when the on/off sale store on Central Avenue was closed. At that time, the City discontinued on-sale liquor business and operated the two off-sale liquor stores located on University and 40th Avenues. In December of 1984, Top V alu Liquor on 44th and Central was opened as a large volume discount operation. With the success of this operation, the liquor store at 5225 University was remodeled in 1988, and the store at 322 40th Avenue was closed, bringing the City's liquor operation back to two stores. Memo to Stu Anderson August 5, 1992 Page Two LIQUOR OPERATIONS REVENUE Over the years, the liquor operation has been profitable to the City of Columbia Heights. In earlier years, the profits from the liquor operation went to support police and fire equipment, and to build the public library at 40th and Jackson. In more recent years, $420,000 in liquor profits were used for the remodeling of Murzyn Hall. In 1990, $1 million in liquor profits were transferred to the capital equipment replacement fund to be used for the future replacement of police cars, fire trucks, and other City equipment Historically, the profits of the liquor operation have been put to good use to minimize the need for increased property taxes. WHAT WOULD ANOTIIBR LIQUOR STORE DO FOR COLUMBIA HEIGHTS? Opening a large, attractive volume discount liquor store in the area of 37th and Stinson should aid in attracting other businesses to the area, and boost the economy of that comer of town. There has been a significant transition of business in the area, and currently there is a large amount of vacant retail space. A good, stable business that draws a large number of customers, such as Top Valu Liquor, could improve this situation. In addition to this, another liquor operation would create additional jobs for Columbia Heights residents. The new store would create three full-time positions and approximately ten part-time clerk positions. Currently, the majority of the clerks employed in the liquor operation are from Columbia Heights. The part time clerk positions are an excellent employment opportunity for college students, homemakers and retired citizens. This, combined with the fact that the profits from a third operation would be used to minimize real estate tax increases, makes another liquor store a worthy consideration. CONTROL By the City owning and operating the off-sale liquor stores in Columbia Heights, the City has complete control over the off-sale liquor business. This ensures that all sales are made in accordance with Minnesota state statutes, and that the stores are maintained to provide excellent service to the citizens of Columbia Heights. For example, in 1990 the City received several complaints about customers loitering in the parking lot by Top Valu between the hours of 8:00 and 10:00 p.m. To resolve this, the City hired another police community service officer to patrol the parking lot between those hours. This has resolved all of the complaints related to liquor customers. The funding for this CSO position comes from the liquor store profits. If this was a private liquor operation, they would have no obligation to fund the services of a CSO to monitor customers in the parking lot. This obligation would still fall on the City, with the expense coming from tax revenues. Memo to Stu Anderson August 5, 1992 Page Three PROJECTED INCOME OF A THIRD STORE The. projections for opening a third store in the area of 37th and Stinson are very good. Profits from this store could easily exceed $100,000 in the second year of operation. This profit, along with the other profits from the liquor operation, would be used to minimize real estate tax increases in the future. Currently, the net income in the liquor operation is equivalent to a 21 % increase in City real estate taxes. With a third store, this profitability could easily exceed the equivalency of a 30% City real estate tax increase. In summary, overall there are several benefits to the City staying in the municipal off-sale business, and expanding to a third store.

At the July 27th council meeting, Staff reviewed the recommendations of the HRA Board and Business Loan Review Committee concerning the transfer of 1991 Community Development Block Grant Funds allocated for use under the Business Revolving Loan Program. The HRA staff has found it extremely difficult to attract potential loan applicants to use the CDBG funds because of the federal restrictions. As a result, discussions with the HRA Board and BRLF Committee were held to consider the transfer of funds. The recommendation of HRA Board was to transfer the funds (totaling $43,893) out of the BRLF and into the 1992 CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Program. Under the Neighborhood Revitalization Program, deteriorated properties (primarily singlefamily homes) are acquired and cleared and then offered for redevelopment. In 1992, $53,748 was allocated for this purpose and with the transfer the new budget would be $97,641. It is anticipated that between four and five blighted properties could be acquired. There are, of course, other options on how the funds could be used, including: 1.Transfer to an existing 1991 or 1992 project (see attached list), or2.Creation of a new project. In either case the funds must be expended by the end of this year. If it is the Council's desire to fund a new project, the new activity must meet one of the three national objectives of the CDBG program. I have attached those guidelines for your review. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to transfer $43,893 from the 1991 CDBG Business Revolving Loan Program to the 1992 CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Program.

IV. Currently the City of Columbia Heights has over 97,300 square feet cwith an additional 38�000 square feet to be available in March) of commercial (retail and office space) available in 15 different buildings. The City also has over 72,500 square feet of industrial space available in three different properties (see survey attached as Appendix "A"). Because the majority of these vacancies were in place over one year ago and now appear to be an on-going problem (already caused one major property to go into receivership), the City is establishing a low interest program to assist in getting the vacant spaces occupied. A low interest rate (5%) loan program that provides matching funds (at least 50% of cost would have to be financed by a participating fi·nancial institution) for purchase of machinery, equipment and real property is planned. A copy of the draft of the proposed plan for the Business Revolving Loan Fund (BRLF) is attached as Appendix "B". The BRLF would be established and administered by the HRA in coordination with local participating financial institutions. Businesses receiving Anoka county CDBG funded BRLF loans will be required to provide emploument to members of Low and Moderate Income (LMI) households (household income limits of $25,000 for 1 person� $28�550 for 2� $32�150 for 3� $35,700 for 4 at time of emp 1 oyment). On ACCDBG funded l cans at least 51 % of a 11 new .jobs created as a direct result of the loan must be filled by members of LMI households. PROJECT DURATION: It is the intent that this be an on-going program. During the first program year (July 1, 1991 to December 31� 1992) the HRA will set up the program and grant 5 to 6 loans. Then during subsequent years the number of loans will depend on new funding provided and the amount of payback. The closeout of the first year of the CDBG Program funding for this project is expected to be December 31, 1992. At that time it is expected that all loans involving the $45,000 of CDBG funds will have been completed and the necessary persons hired by the loan recipients. COMMUNITY PROBLEMS ADDRESSED: With this program, we will assist in addressing the need for incentives for businesses to provide additional jobs for low and moderate income persons while reducing the amount of vacant commercial and industrial space in Columbia Heights. By keeping the commercial and industrial spaces occupied, the owners will be able to continue paying their real estate taxes and maintain their property; thereby eliminating possible future blighting conditions. A I I COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM February 11, 1991 -Page 2 V.FUNDING: This project would be initially funded with $45,000 of FY 1991 CDBG funds and$45,000 from the HRA CDBG restricted reserves. In 1992, if deemed desirable, $50,000 of FY 1992 CDBG funds would be allocated to the program, $40,000of the Westside Parking Ramp Special Assessment proceeds ($95,365 receivedyearly to 2002), and approximately $9,000 from loan paybacks. The interestearned on Revolving Loan Fund would be retained by the HRA for administeringthe program and for providing matching funds for the first year.

A/7 " � PART ONE: HOW TO APPLY FOR CDBG FUNDS NATIONAL OBJECTIVES In order to be eligible for funding, every CDBG-funded activity must qualify as meeting one of the three national objectives of the program. The national objectives are: Benefiting low and moderate (UM) income persons OR Aiding in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight OR Meeting other community development needs having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community and other financial resources are not available to meet such needs Each activity, except Program Administration and Planning, must address at least one of the above objectives. It should be noted that the �bjective is too Uingent to be met jn_m®L_ � WHEN CDBG FUNDS ARE USED TO CONSTRUCT OR REMODEL A BUILDING FOR LOW/MODERATE INCOME BENEFIT, THE USE OF THAT BUILDING WILL BE EVALUATED FOR THE FOLLOWING FIVE (5) YEARS TO VERIFY THAT THE BUILDING IS NOT BEING USED FOR INELIGIBLE ACTIVITIES OR GENERAL COMMUNITY USE. A low and moderate (LIM) income person is defined as a member of a family having an income equal to or less than the Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments Program lower income limit established by HUD. Unrelated individuals are considered one person families for this purpose. There are four categories of activities benefrting UM income persons: Area benefit activities meet the identified needs of L/M income persons residing in an area where at least 51 % of the residents (or less under certain exception criteria) are L'M income persons. A UM income residential area can be identified through either Census records or a suivey of the area residents. Potential examples: Street improvements Water and sewer lines Neighborhood facilities Limited cllentele activities benefits a specific group of people (rather than all the residents in a particular area), at least 51 % of whom are UM income persons. Certain groups are currently presumed by HUD to be principally UM income persons, including: -1 - Al.8 abused children, elderly persons, battered spouses, homeless persons, handicapped persons, illiterate persons, and migrant farm workers. The activity must require information on family size and income, have income eligibility requirements, or be of such a nature and location that it may be concluded that the activity's clientele will primarily be UM income persons: Examples: Construction of a senior citizen center Public services for the homeless Delivery of meals to the elderly Construction of job training facilities for the handicapped UM income housing activities add or improve permanent, residential structures which will be occupied by UM income households upon completion. Examples: Acquisition of property for permanent housing Rehabilitation of permanent housing Conversion of nonresidential structures into permanent housing Eligible activities connected with new housing construction under limited circumstances UM income jobs activities create or retain permanent jobs, at least 51 % of which are either taken by UM income persons or considered to be available to UM income persons (according to certain criteria.) Examples: Construction of a small business incubator Loans to establish a new business or to expand a plant or factory Assistance to a business which has publicly announced its intention to close with a resultant loss of jobs, a majority of which would benefit low/moderate income persons Activities to address slums or blight on an area basis, on a spot basis, or in an urban renewal area must meet several criteria set forth in the regulations. Examples: Assistance to businesses, public facilities, public improvements, or code enforcement Elimination of conditions which are detrimental to all potential occupants Historic preservation of a building Demolition of a vacant, deteriorated, abandoned building -2 - .. � ... . . . • .. • 4 A/ '1 City of Columbia Heights Notice of Public Hearing POBLIC NOTICE Notice is hereby given that the City Council of the City of Columbia Heights will hold a public hearing concerning the transfer of residual funds from the 1991 CDBG Business Revolving Loan fund to the 1992 CDBG Neighborhood Revitalization Program.

Mawhorter : BY: NO. accept State Grant : DATE: August 4, 1992 l DATE: //,,IC 1 _J Resolution to appropriate required ca.sh match6.a.Resolution to approve the hiring of one new officer In the latter part of July, the department learned that we were one of two cities in the state to receive a state grant of $53,333 to conduct a coomnm.i ty police initiative. The concept for which the grant was awarded is to establish a community foot patrol/bike patrol officer in the city of Hilltop and the business area of Hilltop and Colt.nnbia Heights. In order to obtain the grant, the participating cities must put forth a cash match in the amount of $13,333. The state will fund the remaining $40,000. The grant period is set to run from September 1, 1992, through August 31, 1993, with a good potential of refunding for two more years. We met with the Hilltop City Council on August 3, 1992, and obtained a resolution and commitment for the amount of $6,666 (one-half of the required cash match). As I stated in my Council report, the money from a grant must be used toward the intended program. Therefore, we will need to hire one additional officer to replace the one we will take out of patrol to place in the grant position. This will not affect the budget in any way, as the grant officer's salary will be paid by the grant. RECCMMENDED IDI'ION: Move to adopt a resolution authorizing execution of agreement with the Office of Drug Policy in the Minnesota Department of Public Safety and the City of Colt.nnbia Heights and the Columbia Heights Police Department for a project entitled Community /Problem Oriented Policing during a period from September 1, 1992 to August 31, 1993. RECCT-1MENDED IDI'ION: �ove to set up Fund #275 CoJIDRunity Police Fund and to authorize a transfer of $.6, 66tt}.OO from the General Fund to the Community Police Fund as a cash match for the Federal Grant. RECXMMENDED IDI'ION: Move to authorize the Civil Service Colllllission and the Police Chief to hire a new police officer.

Mawhorter, Chief of Police K' Status of State Grant Requests DATE: August 4, 1992 I am addressing this memo to you in an attempt to further explain the vision and status of several grant proposals the Police Department is requesting. In early June of this year, the Police Department learned of several state grants that could apply to our efforts to bring community policing to the city of Columbia Heights and Hilltop. The first set of grants were housed out of the State Department of :Eciucation. They are as follows: 1.A grant for the co-location of services to at-risk youth. The intentof this grant is to improve access to social services for youth whoexperience multiple risk factors (i.e. , single parent households, drop outs, failed in school, pregnant teens, drug and alcohol abusers, have cornmi tted violent or delinquent acts, etc. ) . These aregrants of up to $50,000. An in kind match of 10 per cent, or $5,000, is required. This will be met by in kind commitments of other service providers and the police school liaison officer. Our department vision for this grant is to establish and staff aconnnunity resource center where at-risk youth and area families cancome to receive a wide array of social services. 2.High-risk youth activities: High-risk youth programs are intended to prevent and decrease drug and alcohol abuse and related behaviors byyouth. No city funding match. The grant award size is $50,000. Ourvision is to use our community resource center, the police school liaison officer, the two conmunity police officers, and a community center coordinator--which this grant would fund--to accomplish this grant's requirements. 3.Community Crime and Drug Prevention: Designed to enhance acommunity's sense of security and self-reliance and to assist a community in its crime control and drug prevention efforts. Grants in the amount of $50,000 are available with no cash match. Thisgrant will fund the current position held by Officer Dietz in grid 8, Mayor Murzyn and City Manager Stuart Anderson Page 2 August 4, 1992 thus allowing the department to hire an a.ddi tional officer to replace Dietz's vacant patrol position. 4.Community Violence Prevention Council: Designed to identifycommunity needs and resources for violence prevention and to develop services that address community needs related to violence prevention.Grants in the amount of $3,000 with no cash match are available. Our vision here is to fonn a violence prevention coilllcil made up of arearesidents, service providers, businesses, and elected officials tostudy violence in Columbia Heights and develop recommendations andplans to stop it. The community service center coordinator would beresponsible for this effort. These grant proposals were due July 15, 1992. We have sul:mi tted our proposal and are waiting to see if we will be approved in part or full. We should know sometime this month. There was also a grant for community policing available from the State Office of Drug Policy. This grant was for $50,000 with a 25 per cent cash match, It was originally to be due August 15, 1992. We had discussed our vision of creating a foot/bike patrol officer in Hilltop and the business area of Columbia Heights with the administrator of the program at the Office of Drug Policy. We made contact with her on July 15 to find out when the formal request for proposal was going to be issued. We were advised that there were only enough funds to give existing grants their funding for another year and to start two new projects. She then advised us that we were one of the two new ones. This grant is for $53,333, with a cash match of $13,333. This one is the subject of our request to Council at its August 10 meeting. The City of Hilltop will benefit by having a community/foot patrol officer like Officer Dietz in their city. The City of Columbia Heights will benefit by having a foot patrol officer in our business district. The businesses will get foot patrol, seminars and talks on various crime prevention areas, a special officer to work with to solve their problems and work with them on their unique concerns. I hope that this has helped somewhat with where we are at in this grant situation. I will be at the Council meeting of August 10 if further questions need to be answered.

Evelyn Nygaard presented the request for a Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Approval to operate a restaurant with full liquor service at 4005 Central Avenue in the south end of the Columbia Heights Mall. The seating plan submitted indicates 196 seats which would require 65 parking spaces for patrons plus two or more spaces for staff dedicated to this occupancy based on Section 9.116(4)(u) of the Zoning Ordinance. The applicant, Daniel Stiles, submitted a letter from the operators of the Mall who have indicated they are seeking permission from the existing tenants in the Mall to allow them make a committment to dedicate this number of parking spaces to the Stiles Sports Bar. Ms. Nygaard also indicated that a major problem is the amount of square footage provided in the dining area. Section 5.503(10)(c) of the On Sale Liquor section of the License Ordinance requires a restaurant to provide a dining area, open to the general public, with a total minimum floor area of 3,000 square feet in order to obtain an On Sale Liquor license. The arrangement of serving areas on the seating plan shows a food serving area of 2,281 square feet. Dan Stiles, representing Stiles Sports Bars, Inc., requested that the Planning and Zoning Commission table his request until the next meeting to allow him time to redraw his floor plan to indicate the required 3,000 square feet of dining area and the detail of the kitchen facilities, to obtain the agreement from the Mall owners allotting the necessary parking spaces specifically to the restaurant use.

Miller Funeral Home has requested a "Stop Sign" and"Watch for Pedestrian" sign be installed for southbound traffic in the alley. The concern is that traffic does not stop before pulling out onto 40th Ave.The Credit Union generates an unusual anount of traffic in the alley with the location of their drive-thru tellers. Customers exiting the drive-thru as well as the north parking area are directed south in the alley to 40th Ave. Captain Olson indicated that the alley is a blind one and no way can you pull out without stopping. He was not aware of any accidents at this alley. OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS COLUMBIA HEIGHTS TRAFFIC COMMISSION AUGUST 3, 1992 PAGE 2 C. Staff also indicated that the City does not currently use "Watch for Pedestrian" signs. Mr. Carlson didn't think a Public Hearing was necessary. Kathy Young indicated that any time a stop sign is installed a Public Hearing is called.

Motion carried. REQUEST TO INSTALL STOP SIGNS AT THE PARK ENTRA NCE ON CIRCLE TERRACE. Mr. Kabanuk has requested stop signs be installed at Circle Terrace playground entrance. He is concerned with the high speed of traffic through the area. The last traffic count taken on Circle Terrace was 442 ADT. This low volume suggests that most of the traffic is residents in the area. Warning signs were installed at each end of Circle Terrace and near the park. Staff felt that drivers ignoring the warning signs will not slow down going around the curves simply because there are stop signs in the middle of the block. When unwarranted stop signs go in, the City is open to a lawsuit. Stop signs on each side of the park could provide a false sense of security and encourage children to play in the street. Captain Olson could not recall any accidents in the area. He doesn't think that more signage would be effective. Motion by Carlson, seconded by Gorecki, to deny the request to install stop signs at the park entrance on Circle Terrace. Roll Call: All ayes. Mr. Kabanuk plans to discuss the signage with the neighborhood and make a decision as to whether or not he wants to appeal the decision to the City Council. OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS COLUMBIA HEIGHTS TRAFFIC COMMISSION AUGUST 3, 1992 PAGE 3 D.REQUEST TO INSTALL STOP SIGN ON JEFFERSON ST. N.E.AT 42ND AVE. OR 43RD AVE. Residents on Jefferson St. have submitted a petition to install a stop sign to stop traffic on Jefferson St. either at 42nd Ave. or 43rd Ave. Those present expressed concern with the speed on Jefferson St. Residents requested that Police patrol the area more frequently. When a patrol car has been parked on Jefferson it immediately slows traffic down. Jefferson St. is a State Aid Street and designed to be a main thoroughfare through the City. Traffic on 42nd and 43rd Avenues already stop at the intersec tion with Jefferson St. Speed is not a warrant for a stop sign. Guidelines for turning a two-way stop into a 4-way stop were discussed. Motion by Goodman, seconded by Carlson to direct staff to study Jefferson St. N.E. at 43rd Ave. to document if there is justification to change the two-way stop into a four-way stop. Roll Call: All ayes. Staff will study the traffic volume on 43rd and on Jefferson, the speed of vehicles on Jefferson and work with the Police Department to review the accidents that have occurred in the last year. Residents asked if signage could be considered if a stop sign does not go through.

The concern is that traffic does not stop before pulling across the sidewalk and out onto 40th Ave. The Credit Union generates an unusual amount of traffic in the alleys with the location of their drive-thru tellers. Customers exiting the drive-thru as well as the north parking area are directed south in the alley to 40th Ave. According to State Statues, vehicles must stop before crossing the sidewalk. The Traffic Commission doesn't consider a Public Hearing necessary to install a stop sign because traffic is required to stop. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to install a "stop sign" and a "watch for pedestrian" sign, stopping southbound traffic in the alley between Jackson and Van Buren from 40th Ave. to 41st Ave. based upon the recommendation of the Traffic Commission.

INSTALL PIPE FROM INNSBRUCK DATE: 8/3/92 B.A. PARKWAY TO SECONDARY POND -, -, - CITY :s;.1 DATE: 0).-JV Funds were budgeted in 1991 and carried over into the 1992 budget to replace the reinforced concrete pipe extending from Innsbruck Parkway to the outfall for the secondary pond. The pipe is separating at the joints and deteriorating at the outlet. The plans for this work are almost complete and staff is requesting authorization to seek bids for the replacement work. The budgeted amount is $10,000. The engineer's estimate is $19,400. The pipe is above the budgeted amount because concrete pipe will be us.ed rather than PVC. Concrete arch pipe will be used where the pipe is very shallow. Concrete pipe will be more durable than PVC. The pipe will be tied to prevent the joints from separating in the future. Extra sod and topsoil is needed to fill the easement area to provide as much pipe cover as possible. This project will be combined with the work prop0sed for the outfall from Argonne Drive to the tertiary pond and the outfall pipes at Jackson Pond. Authorization to seek bids has already been approved for these two projects. The Jackson Pond project has been revised-to include repla'Cing the catch basin in Rainbow drive and the triple catch basin midbloc.k on Q�incy S,t. This work will involve disturbing the streets for the catch basin replacemeat work as well as ·44th Ave. for the pipe replacement work. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize staff to seek bids to replace 171 feet of pipe from Innsbruck Parkway to the Secondary Pond.

CITY OF FRIDLEY CITY OF NEW BRIGHTON CITY OF ST. ANTHONY { CITY COUNCIL LEITER AGENDA SECTION: NEW BUSINESS NO: 9 ORIGINATING DEPT.: FINANCE CITY MANAGER APPROVAL ITEM: ESTABLISHMENT OF A NEWFUND TO ACCOUNT FOR PARKING RAMP ASSESSMENTS BY: WILL�RITE DATE: AUGUST 3, 1992 BY: � S'��q--1V NO: c;. A. In the process of the downtown development, the City funded construction of a parking ramp on Van Buren, behind the Columbia Park Clinic. At that time, there was an agreement with the Clinic whereby they pay approximately $95,000 each year in interest and principal assessments for the parking ramp. In 1992, Don Schneider, Director of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority, received a legal opinion from Holmes and Graven that these assessment revenues do not have tobe dedicated to debt service. The revenue can be spent on other eligible expenses. However, itcannot be used as general revenue in the General Fund. Attached herewith is a copy of the legalopinion. At the present time, the assessments on the parking ramp are needed to cover debt service payments. However, in later years, there should be a surplus in the debt service funds. At thattime, the $95,000 annual assessment can be used for other purposes. It is Staff's recommendationthat a separate fund be established to account for the assessment money. As funds are need to coverdebt service, funds will be loaned from this fund to the debt service fund. In later years, when thedebt service fund has a surplus, these loans can be repaid. This will free up additional money to be used on other projects, or as the Council desires within the scope of the legal opinion. The primary purpose in establishing a separate fund is to ensure that we have adequate documentation and segregation of the money collected from assessments on the parking ramp. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to authorize the establishment of Fund #290 Parking Ramp Assessments and to authorize inter-fund loans from this fund to the debt service fund as needed to make debt service payments.

The City receives $95,365 annually through 2002, from special assessments originally assessed for the purpose of repaying the cost of the construction of the parking ramp. The parking ramp was constructed by the City under authority of Minnesota Statutes, Section 459.14 and, in accordance with Subdivision 2 thereof, was financed by the levying of special assessments against benefitted property in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 429 of Minnesota Statutes. Because the parking ramp is located in the Downtown CBD Development Project Area of the City, the HRA of the City was authorized under the provisions of the Tax Increment Act to apply tax increments and tax increment bond proceeds to the payment of public redevelopment costs, which include in this case the construction of a public parking �p. Therefore, the cost of the ·parking·ramp ·collii-truction·-wa.::. p&.i<i·pdw&rily out· of proceeds of the· 9ity's $2,100,000 General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds of 1985, Series A. You have asked certain specific questions. You have asked us to affirm that the special assessments are not specifically pledged toward payment of the general obligation bonds. I have reviewed Authorizing Resolution No. 85-42 adopted by the City Council of the City of Columbia Heights on September 9, 1985, pursuant to which the Council provided for the security for the general obligation bonds. The special assessments were not pledged as security to the general obligation bonds. You have asked us to state that the special assessment proceeds may be used for general City purposes. I would modify this statement as follows: The special assessments may be used for any purpose fo� which tax increment or tax inc�ment bond proceeds may be used, since the special assessments are repaying the City for its cost of the parking ramp improvement which was initially financed by application of tax increment bond proceeds. Since the special assessments are therefore Mr. Donald R. Schneider April 30, 1992 Page 2 repaying the fund from which the original cost was paid, their application is limited to those purposes for which the fund itself may be used. "fherefore, your subsequent specific questions are addressed as follows: 1.The special assessment proceeds may be placed in a development fundand used for development or development•related purposes providedthey are development expenses of the CBD Redevelopment Project Area. 2.The funds from the parking ramp assessment may be used for taxincrement debt retirement. Additional tax increment moneys whichcome in after the date of such debt retirement by special assessmentsmay be used for development expenses of the CBD Redevelopment Area,same as the special assessments. 3.Your HRA/City Business Revolving Loan Fund is a program with whichI am not sufficiently farniUar to render an opinion as to use of specialassessment funds for that purpose, and I believe it exceeds the scopeof the questions I am addressing in this opinion. Perhaps the approachwhich I am suggesting in this opinion, i.e., that the specialassessments may be used for any purpose for which the tax incrementor tax increment bond proceeds which they replaced can be used, willprovide sufficient information for you to address this question on yourown. If you would like me ·to look into that program further, please letme know and I will tell you what information I need. Please feel free to call if I can be of any further assistance.

As of July 1, 1992, there are 6,279 water connections served by the City's water supply. This equates to a total annual fee of $32,713,59; which must be paid to the Department of Revenue in quarterly installments of $8,178.40 each beginning September 30, 1992. The City Council previously authorized that 50% 9f this fee, or $2.61, be charged to each service connection property. Collection of this fee will result in total annual income of $16,388.19 in the Water Utility Fund. The remaining balance of the fee, payable to the State, will be expended frop n.�0 the Water Fund. . d' Since payment of the fee is made on a quarterly basis, payments will be made in two separate years; $16,365.80 will be paid in 1992 and the remaining obligation will be paid in 1993. The fee is being implemented as an annual on�time charge, so the entire amount of revenue, $16,388.19, will be collected in 1992. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to amend the 1992 Water Fund budget to increase revenue by $16,388.19, and to increase expenditures by $16,356.80.

In Minnesota, the MOH must enforce the requirements of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act, and regulations developed by the U.S.-Environmental Protection Agency for providing safe drinking water. The federal government has determined that the numbers of parameters monitored should increase from 23 to 83 parameters. During the 1992 state legislative session, the MOH was authorized to assess a fee of $5.21 per water service connection to cover the total state costs of the program. The fee is to be paid by a public water supply owned or operated by a city, town or water user district. (Laws of Minnesota 1992, Chapter 513, Article 6, Section 2.) This is to notify you of the following: 1.You must collect $5.21 annually from every service connection served by your watersupply as of July 1 of that year. 2.You must pay the Department of Revenue one fourth of the total yearly fee eachcalendar quarter. The first quarterly payment is due on or beforeSeptember 30, 1992. A water supply with fewer than 50 service connections may makeone payment annually starting no later ,than June 30, 1993. 3.If you do not submit payment within 30 days of the due date, you must pay anadditional late fee. The late fee is 5 percent of the actual amount of the feescollected on service connections. To assist with the payment of the fee, the MOH will soon be distributing coupon booklets that will aid you in returning the fee amount to the Department of Revenue.· To inform the MOH of the number of service connections served by your water supply, we request that you return the enclosed postcard by July 15, 1992. To ·inform your water supply customers of the fee, we suggest a way to describe the fee is, 11 Fee for safe drinking water testing program mandated by federal law." We hope to make collection of this fee as simple as possible. Public water supply staff .ar��available to answer questions concerning the fee collection requirements at 612/627-5170. We would like to hear any suggestions you may have to ease this process. We are aware of some confusion regarding the effective date of this legislation.

We have located a suitable, used unit that has been tested on our equipment and it works fine. The new 120" cut is 43% wider than the existing mower. See Mark Winson's memo which is attached indicating that the mowing time has been reduced 35% in the test parks. Because this item involves a trade in plus cash, it requires Council approval. Based on the productivity improvement, this investment looks very cost-effective. RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to purchase a used 120w MT rotary mowef'from MacQueen Equipment for $2,800 plus the trade in of a 72 w used mower. COUNCIL ACTION: J TO: FROM: CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS STUART W. ANDERSON CITY MANAGER MARK A. WINSON J{� PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR/CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: NEW CUTTING DECK FOR THE MT TRACKLESS DATE: JULY 30, 1992 We have received a quote of $2,800 for a 120" cutting deck. This is a used deck in very good condition and has been on loan to us for evaluation this season. The deck will replace an 84" deck and has reduced cutting time for an average park by about 35%. The deck also allows for a better cut on grade changes by hydraulically adjusting the wings from the cab. I've attached photos of the two types of decks. This purchase was budgeted at $2,800 for 1992. MAW: jb 92-409 Attachment ��IB�DW�[ID in, L'J JUL 30 1992 MAi'�AGER CITY OF C'JlUM31A HEIGHTS /0.4. CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS V. j)( /1?

Everything in the audit came out well, and I do not anticipate any surprises at this meeting. 1992 AUDIT When the City Council approved the engagement letter with Malloy and Karnowski for the 1991 audit, they directed staff to do a Request for Proposals for the 1992 audit Staff is following through with this directive, and will be publishing a Request for Proposals in mid-August. In the past, the City Council has put a significant amount of emphasis on the cost of the audit in reviewing auditor's responses to the Request for Proposals. The Finance Director stresses that there are other things of high priority beyond just the cost. The background of the auditing firm and their knowledge and experience in municipal auditing is very important. In considering cost of the audit, there are several costs beyond the fee paid to the auditor, i.e. the amount of staff time invested in the audit is also significant. With an inexperienced, unqualified firm. staff time can greatly increase. H this occurs, other areas in the Finance Department will suffer because there is not enough time to cover everything. Operational Repon August 3, 1992 Page Two 1993 BUDGET CALENDAR The budget books were originally scheduled to go to the City Council on August 10th. This schedule has been moved up so that the books can be distributed to the City Council at a work session on August 3rd. At this time, everything on the budget calendar is ahead of schedule. LIQUOR OPERATION Staff is continuing to pursue the alternative of a third off-sale liquor store. Phil Suckennan, the Liquor Operations Manager, is negotiating a lease and hearing notices have been sent out to property owners surrounding the proposed location. More information will be provided on this as it becomes available. ISSUES AND PROBLEMS: TELEPHONE PROBLEMS During the week of July 27th, one telephone in the Public Works building quit working. Taylor Telephone Systems was called out to repair the phone. The representative they sent out was unable to find the problem and correct it After their representative left, Tom Hosch traced the problem to some corroded terminals. After he cleaned the terminals, the phone has been working satisfactorily. STAFF VACANCIES As was reponed in the last Operational Repon, we have had a significant amount of transition in the Finance Department. This all started with two staff resignations and one termination. Since then, we have had a series of upward promotions, where three staff people were promoted to the next step up position. The last vacant position has been offered to a candidate as of August 3rd and, hopefully, all positions will be filled within the next week. However, the net result of the promotions and filling of vacancies has the Department with six people in new positions. Three of these were newly hired employees and three were promoted employees.

TO: Mayor and City Council Members FR01:Chief David Mawhorter � SUBJECT: Operational Report, July, 1992 DATE: August 3, 1992 I.Events/Accomplishments A.About two weeks ago we learned that we were approved for a. $53,000 state/federal grant for comrmmi ty policing. The grant is funded out of the Office of Drug Policy. We must have a good concept because the Office of Drug Policy only had enough money this year to ftmd two new projects in the whole state. One of the two is ours. The grant requires a $13,333 cash match by the City. We plan to use this money to fund a new foot/bike patrol in Hilltop and along the business area on Central Avenue. Because Hilltop will be getting an increase in service, we will be meeting with them August 3, 1992, to request one-half of the $13,333 ($6,666) cash match. One of the rules regarding these grants is that the money cannot be used to fund a current part of the budget. The grants must be used to as an addition to the already approved budget. If the cash match and the grant are approved by both Columbia Heights and Hill top, we will be hiring a new officer to replace the one we will be placing in the foot/bike patrol position. B.We also submitted four other grants to the Department of :Education on July 15, 1992. These grants are (1) Violence Prevention Council, $3,000; (2) Co-location of services, $50,000; (3) Cormnunity Crime Prevention, $50,000; and (4) Targeted Services to At Risk Youth, $50,000. These grants total $163,000 and require a total of $16,000 in kind match. These grants will fund a coJIDilunity service center and a domestic violence commission. The police/school liaison officer will be working out of this facility and will take care of the in kind requirement. We should know some time this month if we get these grants. C.We have com_;,leted most of the selection process for the position already approved by the City Council. We are down to the finalists and should be completing this process some time this month. D.Our new sq\.E.ds are on the road.The striping design is different. I think it looks very good. Operational Report, June, 1992 City Council Page 2 II.Projects/Goals A.National Night Out is coming up August 4. We have 28 parties scheduled sofar. Sergeant Roddy has done an excellent job at this project. If you canmake it out to any of these, we and the citizens would be grateful. I hearthe food and company are both great. B.We will be making our selection of our new police school liaison officerthis month. We have two persons interested in the position and will beworking with school officials to make the final pick. C.Our problem oriented policing efforts are proceeding well. All officers are taking to the concept and we are making good progress. III.Issues/Problems None to report.

HISTORY On September 16, 1935, a Special Election was held wherein the voters in Columbia Heights overwhelmingly favored the establishment of an exclusive on-and off-sale municipal liquor store. The first store was opened at 4024 Central Avenue in November of 1935. Later, the store was moved to 4050 Central Avenue, then to 4017 Central Avenue, before moving to 4025 Central Avenue in December of 1955. The store remained at this location until September 1981, when it was sold to the Housing and Redevelopment Authority to allow for redevelopment of that block into the Columbia Heights Mall. The voters again had the opportunity to support municipal liquor on June 12, 1961, with the choice between staying with municipal liquor or going to private liquor licenses. The vote at that election again supported staying with municipal liquor. After that election, the City moved liquor store #2, located ai 3856 University Avenue, to 322 40th Avenue and constructed a new liquor store at 5225 University Avenue. The City had three liquor stores until 1981, when the on/off sale store on Central Avenue was closed. At that time, the City discontinued on-sale liquor business and operated the two off-sale liquor stores located on University and 40th Avenues. In December of 1984, Top V alu Liquor on 44th and Central was opened as a large volume discount operation. With the success of this operation, the liquor store at 5225 University was remodeled in 1988, and the store at 322 40th Avenue was closed, bringing the City's liquor operation back to two stores. Memo to Stu Anderson August 5, 1992 Page Two LIQUOR OPERATIONS REVENUE Over the years, the liquor operation has been profitable to the City of Columbia Heights. In earlier years, the profits from the liquor operation went to support police and fire equipment, and to build the public library at 40th and Jackson. In more recent years, $420,000 in liquor profits were used for the remodeling of Murzyn Hall. In 1990, $1 million in liquor profits were transferred to the capital equipment replacement fund to be used for the future replacement of police cars, fire trucks, and other City equipment Historically, the profits of the liquor operation have been put to good use to minimize the need for increased property taxes. WHAT WOULD ANOTHER LIQUOR STORE DO FOR COLUMBIA HEIGHTS? Opening a large, attractive volume discount liquor store in the area of 37th and Stinson should aid in attracting other businesses to the area, and boost the economy of that comer of town. There has been a significant transition of business in the area, and currently there is a large amount of vacant retail space. A good, stable business that draws a large number of customers, such as Top V alu Liquor, could improve this situation. In addition to this, another liquor operation would create additional jobs for Columbia Heights residents. The new store would create three full-time positions and approximately ten part-time clerk positions. Currently, the majority of the clerks employed in the liquor operation are from Columbia Heights. The part time clerk positions are an excellent employment opportunity for college students, homemakers and retired citizens. This, combined with the fact that the profits from a third operation would be used to minimize real estate tax increases, makes another liquor store a worthy consideration. CONTROL By the City owning and operating the off-sale liquor stores in Columbia Heights, the City has complete control over the off-sale liquor business. This ensures that all sales are made in accordance with Minnesota state statutes, and that the stores are maintained to provide excellent service to the citizens of Columbia Heights. For example, in 1990 the City received several complaints about customers loitering in the parking lot by Top Valu between the hours of 8:00 and 10:00 p.m. To resolve this, the City hired another police community service officer to patrol the parking lot between those hours. This has resolved all of the complaints related to liquor customers. The funding for this CSO position comes from the liquor store profits. If this was a private liquor operation, they would have no obligation to fund the services of a CSO to monitor customers in the parking lot. This obligation would still fall on the City, with the expense coming from tax revenues. Memo to Stu Anderson August 5, 1992 Page Three PROJECTED INCOME OF A TIIlRD STORE The projections for opening a third store in the area of 37th and Stinson are very good. Profits from this store could easily exceed $100,000 in the second year of operation. This profit, along with the other profits from the liquor .operation, would be used to minimize real estate tax increases in the future. Currently, the net income in the liquor operation is equivalent to a 21% increase in City real estate taxes. With a third store, this profitability could easily exceed the equivalency of a 30% City real estate tax increase. In summary, overall there are several benefits to the City staying in the municipal off-sale business, and expanding to a third store.
