NOW, THEREFORE, at a regular public meeting of the City dated _____ , 1994,
the following is resolved:
FINDINGS
1.The Cities of Columbia Heights and Hilltop are Grantors of Cable
Communications �ranchise Ordinances ("Ordinances") originally executed by and between
Teleprompter of Columbia Heights and each of the Cities. The Ordinances were renewed on
or about June 25, 1990.
2.On or about September 1, 1992, Meredith/New Heritage Strategic Partners, L.P.,
an Iowa limited partnership (hereinafter "Grantee"), became Grantee of the Ordinance.
3.In accordance with applicable provisions of the Cable Consumer Protection and
Competition Act of 1992 (hereinafter the "Cable Act") and rules adopted by the Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC"), the City has undertaken all appropriate procedural steps
to regulate the basic cable service tier and related equipment.
4.In accordance with applicable FCC regulations, on or about September 10, 1993,
the City filed FCC Form 328 --Certification of Franchising Authority to Regulate Basic Cable
Service Rates and Initial Finding of Lack of Effective Competition --with the FCC.
5.In accordance with applicable FCC regulations, on or about September 30, 1993,
the City passed and adopted a Rate Regulation Resolution regarding Policies and Procedures for
Rate Regulation.
6.On or about October 13, 1993, the City notified Grantee in writing that Grantee
was subject to the rate regulatory authority of the City and requested Grantee's FCC Form 393
and associated documentation.
7.On or about November 15, 1993, the City received Grantee's FCC Form 393
which is attached and made a part of this Resolution as Exhibit A.
8.The City's special legal counsel for telecommunication issues, Bernick and Lifson,
P.A., was asked to provide assistance to the City for review of Grantee's FCC Form 393.
9.Bernick and Lifson, P.A. retained the services of the accounting firm of
Muellerleile & Harrington, Ltd. to assist in the analysis of rate information.
10.Pursuant to FCC regulations, on or about December 20, 1993, the City sent a
letter notifying Grantee that the time period for the City's review of FCC Form 393 would be
extended for an additional ninety (90) day period.
· 11. Muellerleile & Harrington, Ltd. issued a preliminary report dated December 1,
1993, identifying certain issues requiring Grantee's response before a final report could be
prepared, which report is attached and made a part of this Resolution as Exhibit B.
12.On or about December 16, 1993, Grantee responded to MuelJerleile &
Harrington, Ltd. and the City, which response is attached and made a part of this Resolution as
Exhibit C.
13.On or about January 19, 1994, a final report was prepared for the City by
Muellerleile & Harrington, Ltd. which report is attached hereto and made a part of this
Resolution as Exhibit D.
14.The City conducted a meeting open to the public on February 28, 1994, to ensure
that all interested parties had ample opportunity to present information to the City.
15.Based upon the information received from Grantee, information received at the
public meetings of the City, and all reports and advice from Muellerleile & Harrington, Ltd. and
Bernick and Lifson, P.A., the City makes the below additional Findings:
a.Grantee has not made changes to account for an FCC misprint of inflation factor
on Form 393.
b.Grantee's allocation percentage for Vehicle R&M and Vehicle Oil & Gas is
inconsistent with Vehicle percentage determined on Schedule A of Form 393 and
Vehicle lease expense.
c.Grantee has created information on lines 109B, 109C, 209B, and 209C on Form
393 and included information on these lines, which is inconsistent with Federal
law, FCC rules and approved Form 393.
d.Grantee has used quarterly averages of equipment revenue for Worksheet 2 rather
than annual averages as required by the instructions to Form 393.
e.With total system subscribers in excess of 100,000 subscribers, Grantee
incorrectly used the Benchmark Rate table for 1,500 subscribers when it should
have used the Benchmark Rate table for 10,000 subscribers.
2
f.Grantee did not include a factor for Maintenance Facility Cost.
g.Grantee did not include disconnect activity as a "tier change" task for
determination of installation cost allocation to equipment costs.
h.Grantee should have used allocations of installation/service vehicle costs based on
unit count of vehicles in place of "estimated replacement cost" information.
i.Grantee used a tool allocation percentage significantly different than manpower
on vehicle allocation percentages.
j.Grantee has since September 1, 1993 calculated and billed franchise fee costs
inconsistent with the City's understanding of the FCC's rate freeze and other
requirements, said practices are the subject of a written request for a ruling to the
FCC issued by the Quad Cities Cable Communications Commission, Anoka,
Minnesota (said request for a ruling attached hereto as Exhibit E and made a part
hereof). NOTE: This finding is contingent upon the final ruling of the FCC on
this issue and any appeals thereof.
k.Grantee has, since September 1, 1993, been treating as external costs, expenses
associated with franchise imposed obligations which existed prior to September
1, 1993, including, but not limited to, costs associated with provision of required
public, educational and governmental access channels, scholarship grants and
local origination costs.
I.Grantee has, since September 1, 1993, been passing through to each subscriber
an amount of $1.88 per month as a "PEG" fee to recoup expenses associated with
franchise obligations which existed prior to September 1, 1993, said pass through
charges are the subject of a written opinion issued by Bernick and Lifson, P.A.,
as the City's legal counsel, and said opinion, attached hereto as Exhibit F and
made a part hereof, is hereby adopted by the City.
16.The FCC has announced that it intends to make certain modifications in their rate
rules and regulations which may affect the review of rates currently ·being conducted by the City.
17.The City must act upon the pending rate request consistent with current FCC rate
rules and regulations.
18.The City desires and intends to take advantage of any further reductions in the
FCC benchmark calculations.
3
CONCLUSIONS
The City concludes that:
1.Grantee's request for cable rate approval for the maximum permitted rate for basic
service tier (exclusive of any franchise fee) of $8.50 is denied.
2.Grantee's request for cable rate approval for the maximum permitted charge for
hourly service (exclusive of any franchise fee) of $16.49 is denied.
3.The maximum permitted rate for the basic service tier ( exclusive of any franchise
fee) shall be $8 .40.
4.The maximum permitted charges for hourly service shall be $15.25.
5.Grantee shall only be allowed to include as external costs increases in franchise
imposed obligations, including public, educational and governmental costs, which occur after
October 13, 1993, the date on which Grantee's system became subject to rate regulation.
6.Grantee has violated FCC rules and regulations and federal statutes by Grantee's
practice since September 1, 1993, of passing through to and collecting from each subscriber an
amount of $1.88 per month as a "PEG Fee" for the purpose of recouping expenses for franchise
obligations which existed prior to September 1, 1993.
7.Grantee and City will be bound by any ruling issued by the FCC regarding the
billing of franchise fees by Grantee.
8.The City has an obligation to timely act upon the pending · rate application
consistent with now current FCC rules and regulations. However, if the FCC alters the
benchmark calculations resulting in a lower reasonable rate for Columbia Heights/Hilltop
subscribers, the City has an obligation to area subscribers to reconsider the pending analysis
consistent with such changes the FCC may make in its regulations.
9.The City hereby adopts and makes a part of this Resolution all attachments
referenced above.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR IDENTIFYING THE APPROPRIATE BENCHMARK RATE FROM THE TABLES IN
ATTACHMENT A
I. Eich table is split belween rwo pages. Fo, example, rhe table fo, SO subscribers has I litst pap showing the bendvnart rate ior S-24 channels and 0-24
saietlite channels. The second pap fo, 1he table with SO subsaibers shows the benchmark raie for 25-100 channels and 0-100 satellite channels. Selea
the cable wilh the number c,; subsaibers dosest to the number of subsaibers on your sysrem. NOie that 111 systemS with I 0,000 or morw subscribers will
use the rabies for systems with 10,000 subscribers.
2. If rhe touil number oi channels on rhe regulated tiers and the total number of satellite channels on dlose ,quilled tiers for your community unic equals
rhe channels displayed in die seleaed table, use the indicated benchnwtc rate per channels.
J. If either rhe roul number oi channels on die reguwed tiers or the total numoer of ucellite channels on those regulaled liers for your community unit does
IIGC equal the channels displ&y9d in lhe seleaed table, you may delermine your benchrnlric rate per channel by using the Commission's formula, or you
can perionn one of the iollowing calculations.
&. If the total number oi smflil9 channels on lhe ,wptll9d liffl equals the Alellile channels Crvws), but the aaaf number of channels on the regulated
tiers does not equal the 1exal channels Ccolumns), you must do the following calculations:
Co to the row with your number of saiallite channels. Co across the rvw until you ,.ach the rates for the nexr fewer and next greater totaJ number
of channels than on your community unit. Subna lhe lower rare per channet from the higher,.. per channel. Divide thiJ difference by 5 to obtain
the per channel rm increment. For each channel on your communiry unic thar is purer than the number of channels displayed in the table, 1ubcract
the incremenral per dwlnel ra111 from the rate per channel in the box with the neXI fewer nLmber of toQJ channels to obtain the benchmaric me per
channel.
For eumole, consider a community unic with 50 subscribers on the system, 10 sa1ellite channels, and 27 channels in total. For 10 satellite channels
. and 25 toral channels the benchmaric rate per channel Cfrom the rablel is so.aao. The benc:hrnaric me per channel for 10 satellite channels and 30
!OW channels is S0.748 (from the table). The difference between these iwo benchnwtc rates iJ S0.132. The per dwlnel rare increment i1 S0.026
CS0.132/5 -so.026 per dwlnel>. The benchnwtc rm per channel for thil community UM ii obained by subcraaing two times so.026 from so.aao.
Thus. the benchnwic me per channel for this community unit is so.a2a -cso.aao -l2 x S0.02611.
b.If the total number of channels on the regulaled tiers equall the row channefs (colurnnsl bu& the total numoer of sarellire channell on the regulated
lien does nae equal the toUII 111ellite channell 1row11, you mua do the followin1 c:aJculalion:
Co tO the column wilh your number of total channels. Co down the column until you ruch the mes for the nexr iew.r and next g:,u.-teal number
of 111elli1e channels than on your communiry unit. Subcract the lower me per channel from the higher rm per channel. Divide this difference by
S to obtain the per chann-1 � increment. For e.ach satellite channel on your COfflffUliry unit thar is 11U11tf than the-.,,.,....er ol ch�s displayed
in the table, add the incremental per channel rate to the rate per channel in the box with the na1 iew.r number of tctal channel• to oocain the
benchmaric rate per channel.
For eumple, consider a communiry unit with 50 subscribers on the sys1em, 12 sallite channell. and JO channels in toQJ. For 10 sallite c:tw,nels
o1nd JO 10to1I choJnnels the benchmaric rm per channel (from the table) is S0.7.cl. The benchmaric rate per chlnnet for 15 satellite channel, and 30
· toral channels is S0.779 Cfrom the table). The difference belween these rwo benc:hmarlc ,as ii S0.031. The per channel rate inaemer,1 ii S0.0062
IS0.031/S -S0.0062 per channel). The benchmaric rate per channel (or this communiry unit is obained by adding two limn S0.0062 IO S0.748.
Thus, rhe benchmarit rate per channel fot thil community unit ii S0.760 -(S0.748 + (2 x S0.006211.
c. If boch rhe row number of urellile channell and the toQJ number of channell on the fWIUlaad lien fall between the channel, on the table. you must
do the iollowing calculation:
Co to the rwo n,ws of satallite chanM!s that ara below and above, 1'8S91(1iwly, you number ol satmlite channel&. Co acrms the row1 until you ruc:h

Re: Columbia Heights/Hilltop Cable Commission
Dear Mr. Creighton:
Pursuant to our engagement to provide consulting services to you for Columbia Heights/Hilltop Cable Commission, we submit this letter summarizing our fi ndings. Under separate cover are the documents and working papers supporting our positions. For the purpose of our analysis, the cable operating company is referred to as "applicant".
1)Inarguable issues:
a.) The applicant has not made changes to account for an FCC misprint of inflation factor on forms at 121.8. The applicant should have used 122.5.
b.) The applicant allocation percent age for Vehicle R&M and Vehicle Oil & Gas is inconsistent with Vehicle percentage determined on Schedule A and Vehi cle lease expense.
c.) The applicant has created information on lines 109B, 109C, 209B and 209C on the application forms and included information on these lines, as is inconsistent with approved forms.
d.) The applicant has used quarterly averages of equipment revenue for Worksheet 2 rather than annual averages as required by the instructions.
e.) The applicant used the Benchmark Rate table for 1500 subscribers. The Form FCC 393 instructions reads as follows: "Select the table with the number of subscribers closest to the number of subscribers on you system." and
11 ••• total number of channels ... on those regulated tiers foryour community unit." With total system subscribers in excess of 100,000, the applicant should have used the Benchmark Rate table for 10,000 subscribers.
1
; ..
.1 .... --�-...
t 2)Issues that, in our best judgment, are handled by theapplicant in a manner inconsistent with FCC instructionsor sound allocation principles.
a.) The applicant did not include a factor for Maintenance Facility Cost (deemed as insignificant by Applicant).
b.) The applicant did not include disconnect activity as a "tier change" task for determination of installation cost allocation to equipment costs.
c.) The applicant should have used allocations of installation/service vehicle costs based on unit count of vehicles in place of "estimated replacement cost" information. Allocation estimates are needed because applicant represents that detailed fixed asset and depreciation records are not maintained (CFR, Title 47 indicates use of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles which can be interp�eted as requiring adequate records for the recognition of depreciation.)
d.) The applicant used a tool allocation percentage significantly different that manpower or vehicle allocation percentages. A reasonable assumption that equipment services require manpower, vehicles and tools in a somewhat consistent relationship seems appropriate.
As a result of all of the issues itemized above, the rates as applied for would exceed calculated rates as follows:
Basic Tier service Program service rate
From
$ 8.50 $13.76
To
$ 8.40 $13.60
Our sensitivity analysis indicates that to effect additional basic tier rate adjustments would require identification and validation of about $165,000 of additional ·total equipment basket costs. We estimate that the cost to examine the operating company records to further validate issues under #2 above and/or to determine the existence of additional equipment basket costs, and to further validate such costs in light of FCC Rules and Regulations, and to document our analysis in finding of fact and statement of conclusion format would be between $15,000 and $20,000. Given the level of scrutiny applied to the application, it is our assessment that there is likely to be little, if any, rate modification, other than the above, resulting from additional analy-sis and verification. ·

.,
It may , however, be in the best interests of the Commission and its constituents to avoid a potential precedent setting acceptance of the ap plication by coordinating with similarly situated Commissions the performance of additional analysis and verification work relating to the equipment basket costs, recognizing the Commissions' fiduciary responsibility to their constituents regardless of the probability of identifying additional adjustments.
We believe the above adequately and accurately addresses the nature of our engagement to pro,ride consulting services in connection with the FCC Form 393. If you have any questions or comments, or if we can be of further service, please call us at your conven ience.
.Respectfully submitted, MUELLERLEILE & HARRINGTON, LTD.

FACTS:
The community unit has 3792 subscribers.
The system as a whole as more than 100,000 subscribers.
The applicant used the Benchmark Rate Table foi "systems with 1500 ... subscribers".
Accor ding to the Form FCC 393 instructions attached, the Benchmark Table to be used is the table with the number of subscribers cl osest to the number for the 11 system 11 ••• and the number of channels as available in the "community unit".
CONCLUSION:
The applicant used the wrong Benchm ark Rate table and the calculations on the application should be mo dified accordingly.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR IDENTIFYING THE APPROPRIATE BENCHMARK RATE FROM THE TABLES IN
ATTACHMENT A
t.Each table is salit berween rwo gages. For example, the cable ror SO subscribers has a iim page showing the benchm.aric rare ior S-2• ·channels and �24
sa1erlile channels. The second page fat the cable wi1h SO subscribers shows me benchmark: race for 25-100 dwu1els and �100 mellice channels. Select
the rable wuh the number oi subscribers dosest to the number of subscribers on your system. N0fe ch.at .all systems wilh I 0,000 or more subscribers will
use the r.ables ior systems wilh 10,000 subscribers.
2.If the 1ow number oi ch.annels on the rqul.ated riers .and the IOQI number of sa1elli1e channels on those regul.aled tiers iar your community unil equals
the ch.anneis displ.ayed in the selected table, use !he indiaced benchmaric rate per ch.annels.
J.If either !he tOUI number oi ctwinels on the resul.ated tiers or the lot.al number oi s.aiellite dwmels on !hose rqul.ated tiers ior your communiry unit does
n0C equal the ch.anneis disalayed in the selected table, you m.ay delermine your benchm.arlc: rare per dwinel by using the Commission's (annul.a, or you

.a. If the lotal number oi s.a1elli1e ch.annels on the regul.aled tiers equ.als the s.arelliie ch.annels !rows), but the Iota! number of dwlnels on the regul.aled
riers does noc equ.al the tOQI channels tc:olumns,, you mu11 do 1he iallowing alcul.a1ion.s:
Co ro tile row wirh your number oi s.arellite channels. Co across 1he row unril you re.ach !he rares far the ne,a iewer and next greiW' tow number of channels than on yout community unit. Subuaa the lower raU! per dwlnel from the higher rate per ch.annel. Oivide th.is difference by S ro obrain

the incremenral per ch.annel rate irom the rate per channel in lhe box with !he nai iewer nim,ber of total ch.annels ro obt.ain rhe benc:hm.aric rate per

For ex.amcle. consider a community unit wich .SO subscribers on the system. 10 s.acellite ch.annels • .and 27 ch.annels in roi:.aL For 10 mellite ch.anneis

Thus. the benchm.aric rate per ch.annel for this communiry unit is so.a2a -<SO.aao -a x S0.026)).
b.If the rOQl number oi c:h.annels on !he resul.aled tiers equ.als the roral dwlnels lc:olumnsl buc the total number of s.atellire ch.annels on !he reguwed

ITEM 2 (A)
INCLUSION OF MAINENTANCE FACILITY COSTS:
FACTS:
' Applicant did not include any costs for the maintenance facility in the equipment basket cost determinations.
In our meeting with the applicant, the applicant represented that the maintenance facility was approximately the size of a classroom, co ntained in the central facility. The central facility is leased, not owned.
The applicant represented the cost of the mainentance facility as "insignificant".
Form 393 instructions do not make reference to or deli neate inclusion or exclusion of data based on "significance" ... or in accounting terms "materiality". The instructions do, however, make reference to inclusion of costs ass ociated with the "maintenance fac ili ty" as being includable in consideration of the equipment basket costs.
A classroom is estimated at about 1000 square feet.
Gross rents on such a faci lity are estimated at $10.00 per square foot.
CONCLUSION:
Schedule B of Form 393 should be modified to include a $10,000 allocation of costs associated with the "maintenance facil.ity".

ITEM 2{B)
ALL OCATIONS BASED ON TASKS LIST WITHOUT CONSIDERATION OF DISCONNECT ACTIVITY.
FACTS:
Applicant based allocations of installation labor costs, and vehicle/tool costs in par t, on a tasks list for a sample month. Tasks associated with installation did not include "disconnect" activities.
Appendix A of the Cable Rate Regulation Summary indicates that installation/service activities include "tier changes".
A disconnect is deemed to be a "tier change".
CONCLUSION:
The equipment costs assoc iated with installation labor, and as this allocation factor impacts vehicles and tools, should be recaclulated using the recomputed alloc ation percentage of 87.28% rather than 54.99%. This revised fac tor should be applied throughout.

ITEM 2 (C)
INSTALLATION/SERVICE VEHICLE COST ALLOCATIONS
FACTS:
Applicant represented that installation and service vehicle cost and depreciation records are not segregated from total vehicle records.
Applicant represented that detailed fixed asset and depreciation records are not maintained on an individual asset basis.
Generally accepted accounting principles (required for use in preparation of Form 393 as per CFR Title 47) indicate that such records should be maintained on a group basis and individual asset basis.
Applicant used "estimated replacement cost" information to allocate vehicle cost/depreciation expenses.
Without adequate records, "estimated replacement cost" information may or may not have any degree of correlation with purchase price allocations of vehicles.
CONCLUSION:
Based on information su bmitted, known factors are that the Company owned 102 vehicles. Thirty of these vehicles are identified in the application as installation vehicles and twenty two as service vehicles. As such, it is our judgement that a known percentage of 29.41% and 21.57%, respectively, is more soundly based in factual information that the 28% and 16.8% perc�ntages, respectively, used by the applicant as based on "estimated replacement costs". Therefore, the application should be recalculated accordingly.

Principles of Historical Cost Accounting
Acquiring Assets
. l2S The general principles to apply the historical cost9 basis of accounting to an
acquisition of an asset depend on the namre of the transaction:
a.An met acquired by exchanging cash or other assets is recorded at cost-that is, at the
amount of cash disbursed or the fair value of other assets distnbuted.
b.An asset acquired by incurring liabilities is recorded at cost-that is, at tbe present
value of tbe amoums to be paid.
c.An asset acquired by issuing shares of stoclc of the acquiring emcrprise is rc--..orded at
the fair value of tbc assec 10-tbat is, shares of stock issued are recorded at tbe fair
vaiue of the consideration received for the stoclc.
The general principles must be supplemented to apply them in certain transactions. For
example, tbe fair value of an asset r=ved for stock issued may not be reliably determin
able, or the fair value of an asset acquired in an exchange may be more reliably determin
able than the fair value of a noncash asset given up. Restraints on measurement have led to
the practical rule that assets acquired for other than cash, including shares of stoclc issued,
should be stated at "cost" when tbey are acquired and "cost" may be determined c:ither by
the fair value of the consideration given or by tbc fair value of �e property acquired,
whichever is the more clearly evident.11 "Cost" in aerounting often means tbe amount at
which an. enterprise records an asset at the dare it is acquired whatever its manner of
acquisition. and that cost forms the basis for historical cost aa:ouming. [APB16, 1671
Allocating Cost
.126 Acquiring asset s in groups requires not only ascert aining the cost of the
assets as a group but also allocating the cost to the individual assets that comprise
the group. The cost_ of a group is determined by the principles descnoed in para
grap� .125, A poroon of the total cost is then assi gned to each individual asset
a�uired on the basis of its fair value. A difference between the sum of .the
�stgned costs of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired les s liabil
rucs assumed and the cost of the group is evidence of unspecified intangiole
values. [APB16, 168]

ITEM 2{D)
TOOL ALLOCATION PERCENTAGES:
FACTS:
Applicant based tool cost allocations• on an estimated basis of tools per employee.
A reasonable assumption is that an installation/service work entails a like combin�tion of manpower/vehicle/tools.
CONCLUSION:
Inasmuch as the applicant's allocation percen tage is based on unsupported estimates, a more rational approach is to use the manpower/vehicle alloc ations (as amended herein) for the tool cost allocation for consistency.

Sandy W'� Chief �edia Bureau £or Cable Television Federal Communications Commission 1919 M Street W ashingtonr D.C. 20554.
FOIU,iAL REQUEST FOR RULE INTERPRETATION
Dear Ms. W-tlson:
Please consider this letter a request £or a formal interpretation regarding the aff.r+. of your rules in· the implementation in the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Ar:.t of 1992.
We would request that you clarify the difference between the asserted right of the cable company tc -rtemize• its fra1'tcbise fee as opposed to the asserted right of the cable company to •pass through .. its franchise fee ta subscribers as an add�n to its benchmark rate.
Please note specifically that in oar jurisdic:t:ioflr the able company has always designated on its bill the amount of the total bill which is atmbuted. to the franchise fee, but it has· never been allcwed to add the fra11chise fee on ta its tDtal bill as one would a sales tax. 1l1is past practice was through a mutaal agreement interpreting Section 622 (£) of the Cable CAmmunicatiom Act of 1984 which permitted tbe cable operator to • designate that portion oi a subsaiber's bill attributable ta the franchise !ee a.s a separate it.ml on the bill.· {P!easl! see Exhibit A for an example of the past prac:tice regarding designating franchise fees.)
Our complaint specifically is that if your rules would allow the cable c:cmpany not only to item.i%e fra.nchise fees,, but also to "Pass t:mougn• tbose fees (In addition to its benciumrk), the effect of your rule would be to give our cable c:ampany an automatic_ aaoss the board So/o rate maea5e above tbe benchmark. We emphasize that in our jurisdictio1'r the company was never allowed to tack on the 5% ta its rate.

Ms. Wilson November 5, 1993

Meredith is c:urrently claiming that the Cable Television Consumer Protection
a:td. Competition Act cf 199? allows them to separate out f'ra.nc:hise fees when
c:alculating their benchmark rate and that they are not required to add them back
in as part of their overall rate� for service. Therefore, it is Meredith's
contention that the Cable Act cf 192 indeed allows them to b,attl itemize tbat
portion of the bill attributable t0 the So/� franchise fee � .. pass through,. t:he So/o
amount resulting in it being collected. directly frcm the subscriber. (P[ease
reference the copy of their' current monthly statement enclosed. as Exhibit B.)
Further, the cable company in its informational brochure l.iker,s the itemization
and collection of the fraru:hise fee to the c:ollecticn of the State's sales tax. The
statement., Lhey will now appear as a separate line item on you bill similar to a
sales 1:ax-, • can be referenced in a copy of a page in the brochure �closed. as
ExhibitC.
It is the collective opinion cf the Quad Cities Cable Communicatiom
Commission that the 19M Act' dearly established. the cable operator's
responsibility !or paying the 3%. fraitchi.se fee frgm the rate it ccllected. from
subscribers. A different interpretation of the-l99Z Act by � if you. in !act allow
fer this ·pass thteugh .. , would require the rubsa:fber ta pay the company'$ 3o/. fee
in addition to the base rate,. would violate the intention of 1984 Act providing
only fer itemization.. would violate the past practice of this jurisdid:icn_. would
violate the intenti<>n of congress to Iceep rates reasonable, and would.
automatically in:rease our rates by 3" since our rate previously induded, the 5%,
and would now (by the effect oi your rules) add gn the 3o/o..
The Quad Qties Cable Cammunicattans Commissicn hefmy requests that }'QU
darify:
L The mtentim of your bendtmark c:a1culation whiclt allows the removal of
the f'rancltise fee daring cakulatioas without requiring the fnndtise fee be added
back in be£ore the bendmta.tk is achieved and quoted� subscrbes, when in our
jurisd.ic:t:icn fer example, the frandtise f'ee has always been part of the base rate.
' . 2. The intenticR of allcwil'\g the itemizatian of the franchise fee on the
subsc:iber bill. Ts this an -i.temizaaon• as provided in the 1984-legislation such as
that emplcyed. by our cable company (see Exhibit A)? rs this an '1temizauon·
which is intended. ta be a. ?ass througtt.· of the ftartchise ree directly to the
subscriber .. whicll has never ocairred in this jurisdiction and amounts to an
c1ut0mat:ic 5% inaease in our rates?

Please address your ruling/interpretation to my attention at the above address.
Your immediate attention to this issue would be greatly appreciated, since our
subscribers are already being subjected to this o/oS increase in their rates, and we
begin soon our rate regulatory function and will have to address this issue, with
our without your formal ruling.

Assessment of PEG Access Fee by Meredith Cable
February 17, 1994
You have requested that we advise you regarding whether Meredith Cable's
assessment of a PEG Access fee to all subscribers in your service territory resulting in a pass
through to subscribers of expenses for community programming is consistent with regulations
of the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC").
I.INTRODUCTION
Meredith Cable is currently making an itemized charge to subscribers for the full amount
of its public, educational and governmental (PEG) access costs and other costs such as
scholarships and local origination. The issue is w�ether the passing through of such costs to the
..
subscriber is consistent with federal law and the rules and regulations of the FCC .
MEMORANDUM
February 17, 1994
Page 2
In the 1992 Cable Act Congress stated that the FCC was required to create regulations
that would "ensure that the rates for the basic service tier are reasonable". 47 U.S.C.
§543(b)(l). The FCC was further required, in prescribing rate regulations, to take into account
expenditures required to satisfy PEG franchise requirements. 47 U.S.C. § 543(b)(2)(C)(vi).
Specifically, Congress stated that:
[t]he regulations prescribed by the Commission under this
subsection shall include standards to identify costs attributable to
satisfying franchise requirements to support public, educational,
and governmental channels or the use of such channels or any
other services required under the franchise.
47 U.S.C. § 543(b)(4). On May 3, 1993 the FCC released its Report and Order and Further
Notice of Proposed Rulemalcing. FCC 93-177, to respond to this congressional mandate.
II.PEG ACCESS FEE
Generally, franchising authorities may require carriage of PEG channels on a non-basic
tier. However, if the franchise agreement is silent as to the tier on which PEG channels must
be carried, the cable operator must carry them on the basic tier. Report and Order and Further
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. 1 160, p. 108.
The FCC has adopted a benchmark approach to rate regulation based on rates for systems
subject to "effective competition"� Report and Order·1112, p. 116. Regulated systems with
rates above competitive levels, as established by the benchmark formula, are required to reduce
their rates by up to but not exceeding 10%. Id. Using the benchmark rate system,. cable
operators are required to reduce rates unless they justify current rates above �nchmark with a
� . ·-�
. a. "•

cost-of-service showing. Report and Order 1 173, p. 117. However, certain specified external
costs are not subject to the price cap and may be directly passed on to subscribers.
Programming costs, franchise fees, costs of franchise requirements, including the cost of
satisfying local franchise requirements for PEG access channels, and local and state taxes on the
provision of cable TV are accorded external treatment. Id. 1
The initial benchmark rates set by the FCC were required to take into account the
operator's costs for PEG access along with other similar costs. Therefore, PEG access costs and
other similar costs incurred under franchises effective prior to the current regulation are already
accounted for by the benchmark rate.
As a result, it is only new or additional costs incurred since a system has become subject
to rate regulation which the FCC intended to give "external" or "pass through" treatment. For
all categories of external costs other than franchise fees, the per channel basic service rate may
be adjusted only for "changes in external costs". Report and Order 1 255, p. 160 (emphasis
added). Further, such external treatment and "pass through" is permitted only for increases in
allowable costs and then only to the extent such increases in allowable costs exceed inflation as
measured by the GNP-Pl. Report and Order 1257, p. 162.2
1 With respect to taXes, franchise fees, and costs of other franchise requiremelllS, the Cable Act of 1992 requires chat in setting basic service 1"311:S the FCC
take into account the reasonably and properly allocable portion of the cost of satisfying franchise requirements to suppon public, educational, or governmental
channels or use of such channels or any other services required under the franchise and the cos� of any public educational and govemmerual access programming
required by the franchising authority. Report and Order 1254, pp. 159-160.
2 The GNP-Pl is an entry on Fonn 393.
MEMORANDUM
February 17, 1994
Page 4
The starting date for measuring changes or increases in external costs is the date on
which the basic service tier becomes subject to regulation or 180 days after the effective date of
th_e FCC regulations, whichever com_es first. Again, any changes in PEG costs which occurred
prior to the date a system is subject to rate regulation will not receive external treatment. See,
Report and Order 1 255, p. 160.
The rationale for allowing this pass through of external costs is demonstrated by �e
example of the FCC rules' treatment of programming costs. With respect to programming costs
other than retransmission consent fees, treatment of increases in programming costs as external
costs assures programmers the continued ability to develop programming and assures cable
operators the ability to purchase programming. Report and Order 1251, p. 157. Accordingly
on a going forward basis, cable operators are allowed to pass through to subscribers such
increases in programming costs. Id. at 158. Similarly, since the Benchmark per channel rate
included current PEG commitments, any pass throughs to subscribers should only account for
increases in PEG costs since the date a system is subject to rate regulation.
ill. COST-OF-SERVICE AND RELATED PROCEDURAL QUESTIONS
If PEG costs of an operator seriously impact the economic viability of a cable operator,
such operators are not left without a remedy supplied by the FCC rules. Cable operators are
permitted to exceed the capped rate if they can make the necessary cost showings in certain
circumstances, i.e. cost-of-service showing. Report and Order 1262, p. 164. Cost-of-service
regulation requires determinations relating to four major cost components: rate base; cost of
� !·.;..

capital; depreciation; and operating expenses. Report and Order 1265, p. 165. The cost-of
service determinations govern the extent to which cable operators may exceed capped rates for
the basic service tier based on costs. Report and Order 1 270, p. 167. The FCC will establish
cost-of-service standards for the basic service tier. Id. at 168.
In their initial rate filings, cable operators are allowed to elect either to maintain rates
they were charging and attempt to justify them through a cost-of-service showing or to reduc_e
those rates to the level the FCC has mandated (benchmark rate). Report and Order 1 272,
p.169. The FCC recognized that Congress desired that its regulations be designed "to reduce
the administrative burdens". Report and Order 1 8, p. 9; citing 47 U.S.C. § 543(b)(2)(A). In
view of this stated goal and the FCC regulation indicating that the initial rate filing is the proper
time and place to elect a cost-of-service procedure, an operator may not switch to a cost-of
service procedure once that operator has elected a benchmark regulation and submitted Form
393.To decide otherwise would allow the operator to forum shop, seek the best outcome at
considerable local administrative expense, and switch procedures altogether if the going gets
tough.
Where a cost-of-service procedure is initially elected and the cable operator seeks to raise
rates above capped levels, a local . authority must review the information supplied by the
company and prescribe any rate that is justified by the cost-of-service showing including a rate
lower than the benchmark. Id. at pp. 169-70. In th� absence of FCC rules in cost-of-service
reviews, the franchising authority may prescribe reasonable rules and procedures for such reviews.

IV.REMEDIES
The regulations provide for a number of remedies for unreasonable basic cable rate
charges including prospective rate reduction and refunds to subscribers. See, Report and Order,
,, 134-145, pp. 90-98.
A.Prospective (Future) Rate Reduction.
The pending Meredith request for rate approval constitutes the "initial rate determinatio�"
as that term is used in the Act and the FCC rules. As such the current Meredith charges are
properly characterized as "existing" rates and not "proposed" rates. "Proposed rates" as
referenced in the rules refer to future increases in rates.
After a local authority has reviewed an operator's existing basic cable rates and has
determined that the rates exceed permitted benchmark or cost-of-service allowable levels, the
local authority may order a prospective reduction of such rates to bring them into compliance
with the FCC's rate regulation standards. Report and Order, 1 136, p. 91.3 In a benchmark
procedure, the rate may not be lower than the FCC permitted rate, as determined using the
benchmark scheme. If an operator requested a cost-of-service hearing, made a cost-of-service
showing, and the demonstrated costs justify a rate level below the permitted benchmark level,
the franchising· authority is allowed to order a prospective rate reduction to the lower level, since
3 Fooblote 356 indicates that the term "prospective rare reduction• refers to an order by a local authority to reduce or rollback existing rates that are
disapproved as unreasonable, to a level that is reasonable on a prospective l>a<;is only. Io this way. the remedy is distinguishable from a "refund" which is an
order that an operator make a direct payment or credit to subsc_ribers to make them whole for the portion of past basic cable payments that have been disapproved
as unreasonable. The FCC detennined that prospective rare reductions are authori7.ed by 47 U.S.C. § 623(b)(5)(A) which empowers the FCC to establish
[Jrocedures by which local authorities may enforce the regulations.
....

the facts prove that lower level to be the reasonable rate level for that system. Report and
Order, 1 138, p. 93.
B.Refunds.
The FCC has also specifically granted local rate-making authorities the power to order
refunds to subscribers. Report and Order, 1 141, p. 95.4 The FCC indicated that such power
would be used mainly in three situations, one of which is applicable to the pending Meredi!:h
review. Report and Order, 1 142, p. 95. As part of its initial review of rates, a local authority
has the discretion to order refunds for "unreasonable rates that exceed the permitted levels and
are not supported by a persuasive cost-of-service showing by the operator." The permissible
refund period begins from the day the cable operator implements a prospective rate reduction and
goes back in time to the effective date of the applicable FCC regulations (September 1, 1993)
or 1 year, whichever is shorter. Id. at 96.
In ordering a refund, a local authority must provide an operator due process by giving
it notice and opportunity to participate before refunds may be ordered. Refunds must include
interest at IRS established tax refund rates. Report and Order, 1 143, p. 97.
Mechanically, refunds are computed by taking the difference between the disputed rate
currently being charged by the operator and the reasonable rate determined by the local
authority. Report and Order, 1 374, p. 235; See also, Report and Order, 1 143, p. 97 (directing
that local authorities follow the same procedures detemiined for FCC demanded refunds for

cable programming service). Where the operator can, without undue administrative difficulty
or unreasonable burden, identify individual subscribers who paid the unreasonable charge, the
FCC encourages and prefers that the operator refund the overage directly to those identified
subscribers through direct payment or specific credit. Report and Order, 1 376, p. 236. In
some cases, the expense associated with identifying the exact parties eligible for a refund might
be disproportionately large in comparison to the individual refunds. In such cases, the operat9r
has the option to implement the refund by means of a one-time reduction in the future rates of
the class of subscribers that have been unjustly charged. Id. at p. 237. Refund orders· are
effective immediately and may only be stayed by the FCC where a petition for reconsideration
is pending, an application for review has been received, or the FCC has been petitioned directly
for a stay of remedial requirements. Such petitions for review of refund orders are evaluated
under "well-established, judicially-approved standards." Report and Order, 1 378, p. 238.
V.APPEALS
The FCC is the sole forum for appeals of "local decisions on rates" involving whether
a local authority has acted consistent with the Cable Act of 1992 or the rules adopted thereunder.
Report and Order, 1 147, p. 99. This language includes the entire local rate-making decision
process, including parallel analyses or interpretations_ of sections of the 1984 Act. Therefore,
the review of the initial request for rates involving an interpretation of the reasonableness and
propriety of a PEG access fee under federal statutes and rules-would be appealable only to the
FCC.
MEMORANDUM
February 17, 1994
Page 9
Appeals must be filed within 30 days of a local authority's release of the text of its rate
making decision. Opposition to appeals must be filed within 15 days of the filing of an appeal.
Report and Order, 1147, p. 101.
The FCC states that "[s]ince the Commission [the FCC] is acting like an appellate court
in such instances, it is appropriate to use the same standard of review --that is, the Commission
will defer to the judgment of a local franchising authority provided that there is a rational bas!s
for the decision." Report and Order, 1 149, pp. 101-2 (emphasis added). The rule concludes
by emphasizing that rate decisions will be revie�ed by the FCC utilizing a "rational basis"
standard. Id. at 102.
The FCC's adoption of a "rational basis" standard is of consequence. While a
"reasonable basis" standard would require a local rate-making authority to show that its decision
was reasonable when compared with the decisions that other "reasonable" local authorities would
have made, given similar facts, the FCC's adopted standard would only require the local rate
making authority to show that its decision had some basis in rational thought. The adopted
rational basis standard will further the FCC' s stated goal of expediting review and minimizing
the administrative burden. As a result, the FCC may not go beyond the record and determine
what a "reasonable" local authority would have done. See, Id. at 101-2.

The plan has been amended to eliminate alternatives including Alternative 3, Town HomeDevelopment; Alternative 5, Multi-Unit Rental Complex; Alternative 6, Duplex/HomesteadProgram; and Alternative 7, Single Family Rehabilitation/conversation.
Additionally, on page 8 of the plan, clarification was added for the purpose of emphasizing that the city was interested in redevelopment cost alternatives that promoted clearance and single family development of the target block and that the initial phases of off-block development would concentrate on addressing the upgrading of properties directly across from the target block and the rehabilitation of properties owned by the city in the areas outside of the target block.
2.Financing/Budget:The plan has been amended to include the use of liquor fund refunds in place of the Four
Cities bond fund. Also, the plan incorporates the previously submitted Financingexhibits to serve as a sources/uses budget for the project. The actual adoption of thebudget will come before the council on March 28th in the form of approving the 1994budget amendments, funding for further property purchases, and inter-fund agreements on
the repayment of sewer funding or liquor fundi.ng proceeds that have been used for theproject. Addi.tionally, financing sources for private developers were capped with the
intent that the city was not willing to pay additi.onal funding beyond land costs and thatthe developer would have to seek further outside public/private financing sources toenhance their level of profit or reduce the city's level of public contribution.
3.Implementation Time Table:The plan has been amended to incorporate the implementation time table that was discussedat the work session. The time table that was previously submitted has been changed
slightly to enable staff to first put together information on the city's ability tomarket lots. After that information is available, the city council would then consideroffering a Request for Proposal to private developers. Additionally, the adoptions ofbudgets, inter-fund agreements, and further property purchases would also coincide withthe submittal of the same report that outlines the city's ability to market the

g The City Council will review status of the tax increment financing districts in work session over the next 30 days. I have discussed with both Publicorp and Holmes and Graven the possibility of utilizing tax increment financing reserves to either repay
public funds used on this district or to further redevelop the off-block areas. Both conclude that through specific actions of the city council and the BRA, the variety of funding sources that are used to repay or cash flow the tax increment districts could be further utilized at some later date within the Sheffield area. Accordingly, the interfund agreements that will be discussed at the March 28th meeting will further address this financing concept.
5.Technical Amendments:
The plan has been amended to incorporate a number of technical amendments including therenaming of the plan to Sheffield Neighborhood Redevelopment and Housing Development Planand the further clarification of why the Sheffield Neighborhood Stabilization Plan is
incorporated by reference. The attached page is a summary of all the changes that havebeen made to the original draft of the plan.
By adopting the resolution and plan, it affords the City the authority to undertake a comprehensive redevelopment and housing program within the defined area boundaries and involving any of the following activities, including: Demolition of unsafe or unsanitary buildings,
Acquisition and repair of existing buildings,
Sale, grant of property for private development, and/or Sale of excess property for housing development by a non-profit housing corporation.
By designating the area as a rt�development and housing development project, the City and/or BRA may finance the entire cost of the project, including administrative expenses and debt charges with any one or more of the following methods: Apply and accept state or federal grants, Issue bonds or other obligations for redevelopment and housing activities as defined
in Minnesota statutes,
Use revenue pool including for example, revenues from other redevelopment districts to assist in the payment of outstanding bonds, HRA may establish a special benefit tax fund for the payment of debt charges, Operate a special taxing district within the neighborhood,
Facilitate the transfer of funds for redevelopment purposes between City funds or
between the City or the HRA. -Continued-

Before any one of the above mentioned funding sources is used for redevelopment or housing purposes including federal or state grants, it is typical that a public hearing in the form of a redevelopment or housing development plan approval would be conducted. For example, in the very near future the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency will again be offering another request for proposals involving grants from their community rehabilitation fund. A critical element of this grant process involves an advance hearing on the use of the funding in a designated neighborhood or geographic area. Typically, this is presented in the form of designating an area as a redevelopment or housing development district. The adoption of this plan assures MHFA an agency like MHFA that the statutory tests of blight or low income impact are met.

SHEFFIELD NEIGHBORHOOD REVITALIZATION PLAN
EXECUTIVE SODARY:
The City of Columbia Heights (City) and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Columbia Heights (HR.A) has undertaken a study of the issues surrounding the instability of the residential/commercial neighborhood commonly known as the Sheffield Neighborhood. This study includes an analysis of issues surrounding three particular components: first, the intensity of duplex and multi-family housing in the neighborhood and the lack of upgrading and maintenance on such; second, the need for either substantial upgrading or removal of blighting influence single family, duplex and multi-family housing units; and third, the need for buffer areas between the commercial developments along Central Avenue and the residential properties to the west of them.
The City /HRA has concluded that public interaction is warranted in the Sheffield Neighborhood to satisfy a public need. During the past 10 years, there has been a general decline in the area. Property values on single family, duplex and multiple unit buildings have declined substantially. Parcels that had deteriorated houses removed from them and have been made available for redevelopment have not sold after active promotion of the properties by private interests. Due to the decline in values and lack of proper maintenance, rental units have been rented to marginal quality renters. The marginal quality renters have caused law enforcement and other neighborhood problems. The negative influence of this neighborhood has caused declines in values of property outside the neighborhood and possibly city-wide.
In order to arrest the decline of and improve the values of property and living conditions in the Sheffield Neighborhood, the City/HRA has identified their role in acquiring and removing or renovating blighting influence properties. In addition, the City has determined that it is necessary to provide financial assistance for homeowners/rental property owners in the neighborhood to enable and encourage them to upgrade their homes /rental properties to current day standards.
The number of bli�Jhting influence properties, vacant unsold parcels, need for substantial upgrading of properties in the Sheffield Neighborhood, and other problems in the area attest to the need for public intervention to stabilize and improve the neighborhood.
To meet the needs of the Sheffield Neighborhood, the City/HRA has developed a five-part strategy. First, acquire 20 duplex properties in the target block area (10 properties along the East side of the 4600 block of Fillmore Street and 10 properties along the West side of the 4600 block of Pierce Street), remove or renovate the duplexes into single family homes along with construction of public improvements. On those properties where duplexes are removed, the lots would be sold for private redevelopment of single family homes thereby reducing the population density in the neighborhood.
-1 -
Second, promote the turnback of the rental duplexes mixed in with single . family homes to owner-occupied units. This would be accomplished via special loan incentive programs for new owners and public acquisition of some of the duplexes. Duplexes acquired would be rehabilitated and either converted to single family dwelllngs or rehabilitated and sold to owners who may receive special financing in return for agreeing to live in the unit for a minimum period of time.
Third, with Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) grants, HR.A tax levy, Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), and/or other funding sources, low interest rate loans and/or deferred loans/grants would be made available to homeowners and rental property owners. These loans/ grants would be made for limited types of improveme_nts which would upgrade properties. On single family and duplex units loans/grants, to the extent poss·ible, owners will be required to live in the units for a mlnimum stipulated period of time.
Fourth, the City/HRA will address the commercial/residential land use conflicts in the area by providing incentive programs for the construction of buffer areas between the commercial properties along the East side of Central Avenue and the residential properties to the rear. A special zero interest rate deferred loan program may be established so as to provide a limited amount per each business that �ould have to be repaid after three years on a three year installment basis with the full amount to be paid within six years from the date of the loan or upon sale of the property, whichever occurs first.
Fifth, the City/BRA will acquire and remove, and/or renovate multi-family structures to reduce the density and blighting conditions in the neighborhood.

INTRODUCTION:
The City of Columbia Heights (City) and Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Columbia Heights (HRA) have completed a study of vacant and underutilized parcels, and the housing conditions and commercial/ residential conflicts in the Sheffield Neighborhood and has considered appropriate public intervention in development and redevelopment of the area.
This study follows the study completed for the Sheffield Neighborhood "Neighborhood Stabilization Plan", completed in June, 1993. The Neighborhood Stabilization Plan reflects the problems with crime and public safety, land use conflicts, low income concentration and negative perceptions of Columbia Heights. These identified concerns are _in the process of being met by neighborhood policing and through this plan.
STUDY/PROJECT AREA DEFINED:
This Sheffield Neighborhood Revitalization Plan includes the area of the City as reflected on the attached maps of the area (Exhibit "A") and as included in the following bounded area in the City of Columbia Heights:
South Boundary : 45th Avenue between Easterly edge of Keyes Park and Central Avenue.
East Boundary : Johnson Street (rear property lines of Easterly properties) and Easterly edge of Keyes Park.
West Boundary : Central Avenue between 45th and 47th Avenues.
North Boundary : 47th Avenue between Johnson Street (rear property lines of Easterly properties and Central Avenue).
The above defined area is hereinafter referred to as the "Sheffield Neighborhood" .
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Physical Characteristics
The study/project area is primarily developed with residential land uses: 7 .3 acres, or 119 lots are single-family, and 14.6 acres, or 92 lots are twofamily residential. Multi-family housing comprises 7.2 acres. ·commercial uses comprise 3.4 acres. Approximately 9.5 acres are used for public park and approximately .5 acres are vacant. The vacant parcels include two lots on the 4600 Block of Taylor Street and one on the 4600 Block of Johnson Street.

As a supplement to the information presented in the above table, the Appendices includes additional tables which indicate lot ownership, parcel size, assessors' valuation and condition, and homestead status for the property in the study area.
The study found no physical constraints to development of the 3 vacant parcels located within that study area. The vacant residential lot on Johnson Street Northeast however, has not been built upon since it was platted.
Traffic/Transit Consideration
The traffic level of the area ( off of Central Avenue Northeast) is typical of minor arterial streets. The commercial properties along Central Avenue Northeast experience traffic of a major street. (It is State Trunk Highway 65 serving populations traversing North and South, from and to Northern suburbs and downtown Minneapolis.)
The area is also served by MTC as a bus transit route along Central Northeast.
Conditions in Sheffield Neighborhood
Averme
During 1993, the City Housing Maintenance Code Enforcement personnel inspected all of the rental units in the Sheffield Neighborhood and did a windshield survey of the other properties in the neighborhood. Complete interior/exterior inspections of the 20 duplex properties in the target block (east side of 4600 block of Fillmore Street and west side of 4600 block of Pierce Street) found 16 of the 20 duplexes in the block with multiple violations. Of those 16 duplex properties the City has acquired 12 of the vacant duplex properties. At least 16 of the 20 properties in that block are blighting influences on the neighborhood.
Outside of the target block, the City inspection found 27 other duplex buildings with multiple violations of the Housing Maintenance Code and blighting influences in the neighborhood. Due to lack of sufficient parking, at least three multiple unit structures are blighting influences on the -4-
neighborhood. The vacant lots in the 4600 block of Taylor Street and Johnson Street are unevenly graded and roughly cut which detracts from the appearance of the adjoining residential structures.
The majority of the 10 multiple unit structures, duplexes and 119 single family houses were built in the late 1950 's and early 1960 's and have substantial deferred maintenance. The 6 commercial properties are in good condition, however, there are no buffer areas between the commercial establishments and the residential properties to the rear.
Also, see attached appendices for other condition information about the Neighborhood.
ZONING AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN DESIGNATIONS:
The zoning designations of the study/project area are illustrated in Exhibit "B" in the Appendices. The majority of the area is zoned R-2 (duplex or single family) with minor portions of R-1 (single family), R-3 (Multiple Unit), and RB (Retail Business). Current uses are in conformance with zoning and the City Comprehensive Plan, however; the Comprehensive Plan does recommend landscaping . (buffer) areas between the commercial areas along Central Avenue and the abutting (to east) residential properties. Thus, supporting future redevelopment activities along Tyler Street and Central Avenue.
PREVIOUS STUDIES:
During 1993 the City prepared the "Neighborhood Stabilization Plan, Prepared for: Sheffield Neighborhood". This report, included in the appendices, includes detail in regard to the Sheffield Neighborhood as follows: (1) Crime and Public Safety Concerns; (2) Rental Housing Maintenance/Management; (3) Land Use Conflicts; (4) Low Income Concentration; (5) Negative Perceptions of Columbia Heights; and (6) Implementation Schedule.
RATIONALE FOR PUBLIC INTERVENTION:
Statutory Provisions
. Included in the statutory purposes of housing and redevelopment authorities is the ability of an HRA to clear and redevelop "substandard, slum or blighted areas", specifically blighted areas which cannot be redeveloped without government assistance. In determining whether blighted or substandard areas exist, consideration may be given to conditions such as degree of deterioration, obsolescence, the original land planning, lot layout and so on. . These are the fundamental elements which must be considered in the determination of whether or not the city and its HRA should intervene in the study/project area.
The HRA/City should be involved in this area based on the earlier cited high degree of blighting conditions in the area in particular in the target block (west side of 4600 block of Fill�ore Street and east side of 4600 block of Pierce Street). Of the 20 duplex properties on that block, 16 have been found to be blighting influences on the neighborhood based on Housing Maintenance Code inspections of the interior and exteriors of the units. There are 27 other buildings in the Sheffield Neighborhood which have been determined to be blighting influences. The overall condition of the entire neighborhood is a negative influence on the.entire City.
-5-
Due to the age of the single family, duplex, and multifamily units, the concentrations of multiple and duplex units in the area, and federal and state income tax dis-incentives, the majority of the rental and owner occupied uni ts have substantial deferred maintenance and updating. In addition, lower rents have attracted problem tenants to the neighborhood causing law enforcement and other problems in the neighborhood.
Because of the above housing related concerns in the Sheffield Neighborhood and the negative influences that neighborhood is having on other areas of the City, and the lack of addressing the problems by the private sector, it is necessary for the public to become involved in the ways cited in this Revitalization Plan.
In regard to the commercial/housing conflicts, due to "grandfather" clause provisions, the existing commercial property owners along Central Avenue cannot be required to install buffer areas between commercial properties and the abutting residential properties. Public incentives are needed to have proper buffers installed.
Relevant BRA/City Goals/Policies:
In addition to statutory authority for public intervention, the "1992 Columbia Heights Comprehensive Plan lUpdate" reflects in its Land Use and Redevelopment Plan Goals and Policies the following goals, "Protect and enhance the residential neighborhoods of the community; and improve the commercial viability of the Central Avenue corridor while protecting nearby residential neighborhoods." The Comprehensive Plan further reflects the following:
1.Neighborhood Protection: The City will work to protect theintegrity and long-term viability of its low-density residentialneighborhoods and strive to reduce the potential negative effectsof nearby commercial or industrial land development through zoning,site plan reviews and Code enforcement.
2.Central Avenue: The City will work to complete the evolution ofthe Central Avenue Corridor to commercial activity through land useplanning, zoning and, when warranted, private redevelopmentassistance. More municipal control will be exerted over theappearance and function of coinmercial areas along Central Avenue.
The HRA Goals for 1994 include the following:
1.Assist City in addressing redevelopment concerns in the SheffieldNeighborhood and in other areas of the City with concentrations ofrented housing.
2.In an effort to reduce the amount of rental type housing in theCity (currently over 2,500 of the 8,100 dwelling units in the Cityare rental type units) and increase the opportunity for homeownership by low to moderate income families, provide additionalincentives to enable such families to acquire dwelling units .. Inaddition, in lieu Qf constructing more new low cost senior housing,convert existing apartments into senior occupancy use to meet theneeds of lower income seniors in the City. Having additional lowrent senior only housing in existing rental units would enable and

seniors in the City. Having additional low rent senior only housing in existing rental units would enable and encourage seniors to sell their houses. In most cases it is expected that the houses sold by seniors will be purchased by low to moderate income families with children.
3.Continue single family and rental housing neighborhoodimprovement program by continuing efforts to encourage andassist owners to rehabilitate deteriorating units and byacquisition and rehabilitation or clearance pf deterioratedhouses. Resell lots for development of houses in accordancewith City Codes.
4.Continue current single family and rental rehabilitationprograms through the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA).
5.Continue involvement in the CDBG Home Improvement GrantProgram for single family homes.
6.Continue involvement in federally funded HOME Program.
7.Research feasibility of, and establish if feasible, a lowinterest rate home improvement loan program for moderateincome home owners.
8.Continue involvement in the MHFA Minnesota Cities ParticipationProgram First Time Homebuyer Program.
The HRA/City has been involved in publicly assisted acquisition rehabilitation programs since the 1970 's. During 1994, funds from several of the programs will be targeted to the Sheffield Neighborhood under this Revitalization Plan.
-7-
REDEVELOP.IIERT COST ALTERNATIVES:
Redevelopment activities which involve a number of properties are typically more expensive than those with fewer numbers of owners. In addition, the redevelopment housing development project for this neighborhood involves not only land acquisitions and clearance, but potential additional funding directed to residential rehabilitation.
Keep in mind, that the purpose of adopting a redevelopment plan is to support the legislative authority to publicly intervene in the neighborhood. The plan must provide supportive documentation or evidence of blighted conditions and outline redevelopment alternatives that could be further investigated or adopted in the form of a redevelopment project. Further, the existence of an adopted redevelopment plan enables the city to access other government funding sources such as grants or certain types of bond financing. In the narrative that follows, the redevelopment cost alternatives are outlined in the form. of d.ifferent project scenarios that could be implemented in neighborhood. In order to fully obtain the goa.ls of this plan, the City and HRA will likely have to implement more than one redevelopment cost alternative. For example, the first group of alternatives focus on the 4600(s) block between Pierce Street and Fillmore Street and have the following objective: The project(s) serve to eliminate the most blighted conditions or negative influences affecting neighborhood property values by replacing it with new reinvestment. These projects could serve as the catalyst to boost property values and promote reinvestment throughout the balance of the neighborhood.
The last three alternatives work in unison with any of the first seven alternatives mentioned as they deal with the balance of neighborhood properties off of the 4600(s) block between Pierce Street and Fillmore Street. The priority of implementation for the off-block redevelopment activities should be focused directly across the Street from the 4600(s) block between Pierce _Street and Fill.more Streets and those other City-owned properties located off-site of the target block. For example, the last three alternatives have the foilowing objective: The project ( s) work in unison to eliminate any further blighted conditions or negative in£luences on scattered sites throughout the neighborhood, by providing property owners with public incentives to upgrade their properties. These projects could work as an initial redevelopment phase for the neighborhood while the target block is being acquired or could serve as the concluding phase of redevelopment after the target block is fully redeveloped.
In the following pages, redevelopment alternatives are identified in terms of project scope, development assumptions, project costs, and possible financing sources.
Overall, the City and this plan place a special interest to promote project ( s) that assure an single family owner in the form of construction as opposed to multi-family development ongoing rental operation or conversation of uses through substantial rehabilitation of existing buildings.

REDEVELOPMENT FINANCING SOURCES: The following .is a summary of Financing Sources available for implementation of the redevelopment and housing development activities. Additionally, this section also provides a sources and uses budget to be adopted by the City.
Four Cities Bond Residual . . . . . . . . . . $400,000.
As of September 28, 1993, the First Trust Account contained $443,428 of unencumbered funds available for reuse by the City. Prior discussions with Holmes & Graven indicate that the funds can be used in conjunction with the Sheffield Home Ownership Program.
As opposed to using the Four Cities bond money as a direct source of funding for the Sheffield Project, another alternative could be considered. First, the funds are deposited in our tax increment financing accounts. This will eliminate the cash flow problems that the city will experience as a result of the Columbia Heights Business Center tax delinquencies. Second, a settleu,ent agreement on delinquent taxes and future taxes with a new purchaser for the Columbia Heights Business Center should be completed. The settlement would free up TIF cash reserves for not only Sheffield redevelopment plan, but also an ongoing or revolving city-wide program for housing revitalization.
Future Year CDBG Allocation ••••••••••••••• $230,000. In 1994, the City Council allocated $231,890 to the Sheffield neighborhood. This funding could be used for acquisition and/or rehabilitation projects. In the event the area is designated as a redevelopment district, City does have some flexibility in relaxing the community development guidelines ,in an effort to impact more properties. The targeting of Community Development Block Grant Funds in a neighborhood is a successful method of assuring the removal of blighted conditions and the revitalization of neighborhoods. For example, out-sta.te cities who do not have entitlement funding have to compete for block grants. Accordingly, their strategies tend to target the money into neighborhoods with the most prevalent needs and blighted conditions. In the future years, the City can redirect this money into, the neighborhoods or areas that have the most prevalent bli�Jhted conditions.
City Fund Balances •••••••••$?????
Further analysi1> of the City's fund balances will reveal some flexibility to dedicate funding to the Sheffield project or for that matter, an ongoing neighborhood revitalization program. For the most part, this should be done with revol ving loans as opposed to grants. The Liquor Fund appears the most logical source of funding available for the project, with its 1993 year unencumbered fund balance of $477,000. The plan has identified some funding support to the BRA for administrative purposes. The consolidation of city staff and BRA-staff may in fact eliminate future BRA administrative funding needs or potential shortfalls that the BRA will eventually experience if they co,ntinue to operate independent of the City.

Discretionary funding •••••••••••••• ????
Throughout the discussions on redevelopment cost alternatives, various outside funding sources have been identified. For example, the City has an application pending with MHFA for a $350,000 grant for neighborhood revitalization. Depending on the alternative that is chosen for implementation, these grant funds could be reapplied for or if the grant is awarded, the grant application may be amended. The plan also outlined the potential of a down payment subsidy program through the Fede.ral Home Loan Bank Program. After a redevelopment alternative is identiLied, there are other agencies and funding concepts that could be applied for vi th a high likelihood of being awarded, because of the leverage of the local dollars that potentially is being committed to the neighborhood.
Prior Year CDBG Acquisition Balances •••••••$34,000.
The 1993 CDBG acquisition balance contains $34,300. The BRA Executive Director has confirmed that this funding could be directed to acquisitions of blighted duplex buildings.
Future Sale of BRA Lots $75,000.
The BRA owns five lots through their acquisition efforts. Speaking optimistically, the sale of these lots at approximately $15,000 each will result in proceeds of $75,000. The BRA cash reserves may have to interimly fund the $75,000 until the ultimate sales are closed.
BRA Fund Balance •••••• . . . . $125,000,
Currently, the BRA has approximately $272,000 of Undesignated General Fund reserves that could be invested in the project. Thi.a is exclusive of any special revenue fund dollars for Parkview Villa or CDBG fund�. As long as the BRA remains an independent organization, it would seem sensible to maintain a heal thy cash reserve. However, a below market interest rate loan program could be established, so as to assure repayment to the BRA.
BRA Tax Levy ...•. . . . . . . . . . . . . . $71,000/PR YR
The City Council and the BRA have made arrangements for the collection of a special BRA levy presumed to be dedicated to the Sheffield housing problem. In the event the BRA issued bonds for 20 years, $750,000 could be financed. The proceeds of the sale could be used for public improvements, down payment assistance, and a portion of the rehabilitation costs.
Private Mortgage Financing •••••••••••• ???
The City has solicited interest from local banks and lenders as to their willingness to participate in special mortgage financing for Sheffield Neighborhood. Because of their Community Reinvestment Obligations, the banks have initially agreed to funding local programs.

Use of CDBG Funds for Acquisition and Relocation in the Sheffield Neighborhood
As per your request yesterday, I have checked on restrictions in regard to use of Community Development Block Grant(CDBG) funds for housing acquisition/ relocation/clearance.
l.In regard to need to meet low to moderate income benefit, we do not have to meetthis requirement with our "Acquisition and Cleara.nce of Deteriorated Properties" CDBGproject. We will be acquiring blighting influence properties which will meet theproject and Federal objectives of "Activities to address slums or blight on a spotbasis".
2.As far as "strings" attached to use of the CDBG funds, there are some. Attachedis an information sheet from Anoka County reflecting some of the issues to beaddressed when acquiring property with CDBG program funds. Included are therequirements to provide a relocation plan and assistance "to each low to moderateincome household displaced by the demolition of housing or by the conversion of a LMIdwelling to another use as a direct result of the assisted activities."
In addition, in most cases, we must provide for one for one replacement of units demolished(within a three year period after demolition). In the Sheffield Neighborhood, this would include the provision of 4 replacement dwelling units which could be provided through the sale and development(with 4 single family houses) of 4 of the City/HRA owned lots on 38th Ave NE. Other acquisitions/relocation with nonCDBG funds would not require one for one replacement.
Prior to acquisition of properties with the 1994 CDBG funds, we must complete our environmental review for the project and secure Minnesota Historical Society clearance on acquisition and clea.rance of any structures over 50 years old.
3.On clearance of single and duplex housing structures, the Davis-Baconrequirements do not apply.
4.I have asked JoAnn Wright, Anoka co. CDBG Administrator, for any other concernsand will let you know if she has anything to add to this list.
Please call or see me if you have any questions in regard to the above.

REGULATIONS, RULES, POLICIES
Monitoring
All local governmental units and nonprofit organizations that are recipients of CDBG funds must be monitored for compliance with HUD regulations and recordkeeping requirements through on-site inspection and interview at least once every two years. Anoka County may, within its discretion, monitor the activities of subrecipients more often if it is deemed necessary. The Anoka County CDBG Program is monitored annually by HUD.
Monitoring of subrecipients includes verifying compliance with project objectives and checking for minunum basic records that show separate accounting of receipt and disbursement of CDBG funds, along with supporting documentation. See the Accounting and Recordkeeping Section and other Sections of this Guide for further information.
URA and Section 104(d)
All acquisition and relocation activities are subject to the Uniform Relocation Assistance (URA) and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 USC 4601 et seq.), as amended, and/or Minnesota Statutes Section 117.52. In addition, all CDBG-financed projects which include clearance or change-of-use of housing must be reviewed for compliance with Section 104(d) (often called "Barney Franl:" for its Senate author). The Urban Anoka County CDBG Program has an Antidisplacement and Relocation Assistance Policy, as well.
The County's CDBG Program will be implemented in such a manner as to minimize the direct and indirect displacement of tenants and owners from thei!residences and/or places . of business. CDBG-assisted activities must be structured to avoid displacement to the greatest extent possible.
Anoka County requires that relocation assistance will be provided in accordance with County Policy, the URA, and related regulations found in 49 CFR part 24 (including Section 104(d) requirements), regardless of the actual funding source for the relocation assistance, to each low/moderate income household displaced by the demolition of housing or by the conve!"sion of a low /moderate income dwelling to another use as a direct result of assisted activities. The local agency will submit a plan detailing how reloca.tio:i assistance will be provided.
Anoka County requires the replacement of all occupied and vacant occupiable low /moderate-income dwelling units demolished or converted to another use as _ a direct result of activities assisted with funds provided under the CDBG Program. Replacement units will be located in the same jurisdiction in which
�'-
0
� �"1'
the units were displaced. It may be permissible to locate the replacement units in a neighboring community provided a mutual agreement is reac hed and Anoka County approves the location. All replacement housing will be provided within three years of the commencement of the demolition or rehabilitation relating to conversion. Before obligating or expending funds that will direc•�lY result in such demolition or conversion, subrecipients will make public and submit in writing to Anoka County any required information; the County will forward the information to the HUD Field Office.
Construction
All construction activities assisted with CDBG funds must con:ply with all applicable Federal, State, and local laws and policies regarding labor standards and contract wage requirements, Section 3, equal opportunity, contractor eligibility, procurement, housing quality standards, energy ef liciency, and any other such requirements. The Anoka County Co�munity Development Manager maintains a detailed construction package which includes all pertinent information.
A pre-construction conference between the Community Developm�nt Manager, the property owner, and the contractor is required prior to commencement of construction. All legal and contractual requirements are reviewed during this . conference.
Environmental Review
All CDBG activities except administration and planning are subject to environmental review requirements. The process will result in one of three determinations:
(1)Categ orically excluded: The project is one considered by theapplicable Federal authorities to be "categorically exempt" and coes notnegatively impact any areas covered in the initial process of review.No further review is necessary.
(2)Requiring review: All activities not included in the first category.
(3)
Use the procedure described in the regulations and the forms attachedto complete the process of revie�·.
Environmental Impact Statement Required: Step 2 above identifies a major impact on site contamination requiring clean-up, statement must be completed.
If the process required in the human environment or an environmental impact
If, at the end of the review process r 0 quired in Step 2 aboYe, County or City staff have determined that the project will not significant!�· a.ff ect the human environment, a combined "Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact" an :i "Notice of Re<;uest for Release of Funds" must be pubiislied. After publication, copies of affidavits and a "Request for Release of Funds" and Certification art· sent to HUD,
Clearance from the Minnesota Historical Society is usually part of this process.

II.
IV.
PROJECT ACTIVITY:
Thi9 activity involves the acquisition and clearance of deteriorated properties. Tobe considered, a property must be uninhabitable due to building conditions which aredetrimental to the health, safety and welfare of its occupants. In addition, aproperty must be l) either vacant or have a willing seller, and 2) be difficult tocondemn under the hazardous building section of the Uniform Building Code of the Stateof Minnesota. Acquigition would comply with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and RealProperty Acquisition Policies Act of 1970, as amended, and by the HRA's Real PropertyAcquisition Policy.
Properties will be identified by BRA Staff in cooperation with the City's BuildingDepartment. OWners will be contacted by HRA Staff and inspections will be conducted.An evaluation will be made of the property's physical condition, feasibility ofrehabilitation and pot ential marketability. The City of Columbia Heights will beresponsible for making a final determination of the properties to be acquired underthi9 program. During the first 12 months, use of funds will be restricted to theSheffield Neighborhood (as defined below in paragraph# VIII).
This activity will be carried out by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority ofColumbia Heights in coordination with the City under a program known as the"Neighborhood Revitalization Program".
If the Fiscal Year 1994 funds are not all used in the Sheffield Neighborhood during thefirst 12 months, remaining funds will be used on acquiring property on a City-wide,spot acquisition basis.
III.PROJECT DURATION:
This activity is part of a continuing effort by the BRA and City to acquire gubstandard and deteriorated properties which are con9idered blighting influences in otherwise stable neighborhoods.
PREVIOUS FUNDING:
A grand total of $246,920 in CDBG funds have been used for this program since 1988. Six properties have been acquired, and one vacant lot redeveloped into a single-family home and one other lot is in the process of being developed with a new house and garage by Habitat for Humanity.

The priority project area, the Sheffield Neighborhood is defined as the area within the follow ing boundaries:
-south Boundary:45th Avenue between Easterly edge of Keyes Park and Central Avenue.
-East Boundary:Johnson Street (rear property lines of Easterly properties) and Easterly edge of Keyes Park.
-west Boundary:Central Avenue between 45th and 47th Avenues.
-North Boundary:47th Avenue between Jo hnson Street (rear property lines of Easterly properties and Central Avenue).
The above defined area is hereinafter referred to as the "Sheffield Neighborhood".
The Sheffield Neighborhood includ es a concentration of low income families in blighted type duplex and multiple unit housing. There are 518 dwelling units in the Sheffield Neighborhood and of those, there are 119 single family units, 184 are part of duplex units (92 actual duplexes), 56 are part of four-ple xes (14 actual four-plexes), and 159 are part of multiple unit apartment buildings (1 six-plex, 4 seven-plexes, 2 eightplexes, 3 eleven-plexes, 1 sixteen-plex and 3 twenty-plexes) • There are also 6 commercial properties in the Sheffield Neighborhood. Over 45% of the residential properties are rental in nature.
The goal of the Sheffield Neighborhood Revitalization Plan is to "Restore the balance of Housing ( rental versus owner occupied) of the Sheffield Neighborhood to a level more typically found in lower density residential districts throughout the City". Included in this goal/plan is redevelopment/reutilization of residential properties in the area of moderate income housing and redevelopment of the commercial area so as to establish clear deline ations or buffers between Central Avenue commercial development and the ' housing units along Tyler Street.
LARGER EFFORT:
This activity is part of a larger effort by the City and HRA of Columbia Heights to eliminate substandard housing within the City and improve neighborhoods.. Other activities include housing rehabilitation and homeownership assistance (i.e. first-time homebuyers program).
See Single-Family/Duplex-Housing Rehabilitation section for additional information.

XII.DEMOLITION OF APFOROABLE HOUSING:
In an effort to minimize displacement and the destruction of affordable housing, theCity, to the extent possible, will limit its list of properties to those which havebeen vacant for at least one year prior to acquisition. The purpose of this activityis to eliminate blighting conditions and encourage new development. The housing to beconst.ructed will, in most circumstances, be market-rate. Therefore, sites to beidenti£ied will be exempt from the one-for-one replacement requirement.

In the course of evaluating the misdemeanor enforcement activities done by the Community Service Officers, we found that the ordinance had some deficiencies. Back in 1988, ordinance number 1160 passed, which gave Community Service Officers authority to issue citations for specific violations of law. The ordinance also gave other city department personnel authority to write citations for other ordinance violations.

AGENDA SECTION: ·ORDINANCES & RESOLUTIONSNO: 6
ITEM: ORDINANCE 1281 -HOUSING CODE/ _I!!!! NO: (o. i=:.,
MEETING OF: February 28, 1994
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: I CITY MGR CITY MANAGER'S APPROVAL
BY: P. HENTGES DATE: 2-25-94 B
The first reading of Ordinance 1281 which makes certain amendments to the Maintenance Code and Licensing of Rental Units has been adopted. Since that time, the City Council has met with a group of landlords and reviewed the proposed amendments. I am waiting for a response and their comments on the final draft amendment. Last Wednesday, I reviewed the various amendments with a group of local landlords, including some same individuals who attended the previous wc;>rk session.
At this point, only three points were of concern: #1. Complaint Inwections. The landlords expressed a concern with tenant complaints on Housing Code violations in cases where tenants weremaking retaliatory complaints because they were being evicted. I indicated that our current policy was to inquire if the tenant was fo the process of being evicted and to indicate that we will do the inspection after the apartment was vacated. Typically, if they have a valid complaint and are fighting the eviction based on a dispute on the condition of the apartment, that matter would be first resolved in court, if it had any standing. #2. Parkin� as Per Zanin� Ordinance. The Zoning Ordinance essentially has stricter parking provisions than does the current maintenance code which requires one parking space per dwelling unit. The proposed amendment references the required spaces,configuration and size according to the provisions o.f the Zoning Ordinance. Further, the amendment requires thatif the property bas the available space to expand the pa.rking, then the expansion must occur by 1997. Of course, the variance section of the code would apply in resolving interpretations or disputes as to how the City is applying the parking standards to the property. #3. Landlord Education Requirement The proposed requirement c;,f three hours annual continuing education for landlords was the most frequently objected to item in the proposed ordinance. Landlords have suggested that this item be amended to apply in cases where licenses have been suspended or cases of problem units that are subject tQ excessive police calls or maintenance complaints. It has been suggested that a background check on landlord housing conviction or experience be reviewed at the time of license approval and that landlords who have a poor record or have not managed rental property either seek contract management or within the license year, seek training. I hope that if the council's inclined to change this section, that the council -pass the ordinance excluding Section 7, 5A.407(1)B and that the staff be directed to prepare a separate ordinance and referred to resolution that incorporates any changes relevant to the contin11ing education provision.
In summary, it is important that this ordinance be moved forward, as the Fire Inspections Staff is in the process of increasing their inspection workload schedule with the advent of spring. Further, many of the provisions such as the conduct on licensed premises and exterior maintenance ranges are more commonly applied to during the spring and summer months. The majority of our license renewals will come to the council during late spring and summer months.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to waive the reading of the ordinance, there being ample copies available for the public.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to adopt Ordinance 1281 being an ordinance amending Ordinance No. 853, City Code of 1977, Pertaining to the Housing Maintenance Code, Licensing of Units, and the Conduct on Licensed Units as amended on second reading.

Mr. Bob Thimmesh, President
Columbia Heights Multi-Housing Association
4110 Rahn Road
Eagan, MN 55122
Dear Bob:
Enclosed please find the revised copy of the Housing Maintenance Code. Please note among
other things a couple of specific revisions:
1.Section 5A.208(1)(a)
The required off-street parking has been changed from one space to the spaces
as required by the City Zoning Ordinance. In any event, the Zoning Code
requirem,ent would apply. In cases where the property does not meet the required
parking spaces, property will have to be brought up to required code by January
1, 1997, if there is sufficient are;a or space on the property to accomplish the
parking expansion.
2.Section SA.410
The conduct on licensed premises section of the code has been amended to
include such activity as assaults, contributing to delinquency of a minor, animal
noises, and public nuisances. Additionally, the twelve month timetable has been
amended to be three months.
3.Section SA.407(1)
License renewal includes a requirement of three hours continuing education.
This section also prescribes that the City Council establish by resolution the types
of continuing education necessary to meet the requirement. I think your input
is necessary in defining types of continuing education necessary to meet this
requirement.
With regards to you.r proposal to waive sections of the code upon written agreement, I discussed
this matter with city st:af f and the city attorney a.nd conclude that specific ordinances or laws of
the city cannot be unilaterally waived. Accordingly, if a unique situatiion or interpretation of
the ordinance occurred, the landlord or property owner would have the appeals process to review
any erroneous interpretations, mis-statements or mistake of fact pursuant to Section 6.
With regards to your new proposal requiring the City to iasue the landlord a written statement
that the violation has been corrected, I would simply offer that the City will do 10 any time the
landlord 10 requests. I should note that the licensing date will occur approi:imately 60 days after
the date of inspection and a license will be issued upon compliance with the code. So to speak,
this serves as a record of compliance.
If you have any additional questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me at your
earliest convenience. Originally, this item was scheduled for City Council review at its regular
council meeting of February 28, 1994, at 7 P.M. If you feel we need to meet prior to that time,
please call my office. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Patrick Hentges

ADMINISTRATION AND BY: PATRICK HENTGES BY,Q� ENGINEERING CHANGES '1. 13. DATE: 2-22-94
At the February 14, 1994 Council meeting, the City Manager was directed to research administration and engineering costs. The City picked up the administration and engineering costs for the 1993 sealcoat area 1. Therefore, it would be a good time to set the administration and engineering cost policy, at this time, for the remaining three areas of sealcoat. The staff has prepared the following recommendation.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to amend City Special Assessment Policie_s by excluding the Administration and Engineering charges from the actual costs to be specially assessed to property owners for sealcoat improvements.

ADMINISTRATION COST FEBRUARY 23, 1994 DATE:
Attached are copies of old assessment information. The Auditors recommended the method now in place. The 1982 levy appears to be the first year of
changing from 15% of construction cost to the parcel x hours x wages x years method.
There are 25 levied projects, in addition to midblock lights, with outstanding balances.
MIDBLOCK LIGHT PROJECTS IN 1994
There are 15 old active midblock lights and one newly levied alley light.
The 15 projects for 1994 includes:
359 parcels @$1.25
15 set up charges @$25
Total charge for 15 projects
$448.75
375.00 -------
$823. 75
The total 1994 amount assessed for these 15 projects, including the $823.75,
is $4,997.68.
The new midblock light is not installed yet, so electric costs have not be
determined.

590 40th Avenue N.E. Columbia Heights, MN 55421 (612)788-9221
TO: ROBERT BOCWINSKI, CITY MANAGER
FROM: MILDRED CARLSON, CITY ASSESSOR
SUBJECT: 15% ADMINISTRATIVE COST ON SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS
DATE: DECEMBER 2, 1981
The 15% of projects started in 1958, when a State Auditor ·made the .: .. :-··
suggestion to the City that this was a practice allowed by State Auditors
to support the cost of assessing and keep the P.I.R. fund revolving.
This would include:
1.The mailing out of origlnal notices of hearing •
2.The checking of petitions to verify ownership of signatures.
3.Staff personnel salaries in writing the roll, figuring the amount,
the annual Installment, the interest, penalty and certification
of delinquent each year. Also of posting payments and balancing
( the ledgers.
•
-----·--· -··
4.The cost of mailing notices of final hearing to levy.
S.The cost of advertising the preliminary and the final hearing.
6.To take up any adjustments that must be made, Including
forfeitures of property.
It Is my opinion that this practice should continue so that the above costs
are borne by the project rather than by the taxpayer In general, especially
now when we are seeking ways to pass on the cost of a service to the
people who benefit •

CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS
TO: MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: ROBERTS. BOCWINSKI, CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: ADMINISTRATIVE CHARGES ON SPECIAL ASSESSMENT PROJECTS
DATE: MARCH 30, 1984
l.
Attache d are various memos and/or reports dealing with administrative charges on special assessment projects. The first sheet I would draw your attention to is a memo dated Ha1rch 28, 1984, prepared by Karen Meuleners indicating how
we calculated administrative charges on projects considered by the City Council at the March 19, 1984 Public Improvement Hearing. I have also provided support information which indicates the formula and the method of calculating costs and hours dealing with special assessment projects. I trust this will clarify the questions regarding costs associated with administrative charges as presented at the March 19th Public Improvement Hearing.
I have also attached numerous documents illustrating the formula used for calculating administrative charges. You will note that our present formula is based upon the number of hours and the labor costs associated wi�h the Public Improvement Hearings and handling special assessments. You will also note from the remaining information that the City has charged for costs since at least 1969, but has done so in varying forms and methods. Again , from the attached material, you w, 11 note for an assessment project notice dated December 8, 1969, that the City was charging 10% on projects as a factor which,to the best of my knowledge , was for miscellaneous items. You will also notice on the same document that the City was charging staff salaries (Street Department, Engineering Departm,�nt) as wel 1 as other costs associated with special assessment hearings such a!i advertising. The statement dated November 29, 1972, likewise reflects the same items except here administrative salaries were also included as the combined costs which were then assessed to benefitting properties. On the statement.dated November 29, 1973, the City was then using a 15% factor In addition to the actual salaries for Street , Engineering and Administration employees. On the schedule dated November 29, 1977, you will note that the City was using a 15% factor which , to the best of my knowledge, was now reflecting administrative costs only, since salaries were a reflection of engineering costs. Untin982, the City used the 15% factor to charge for administrative costs on special assessment projects. Effective in November, 1982, the City applied a new method of calculating administrative costs based upon the recommendation received from the City's auditor. I might add that the City Council expressed its dissatisfaction with using a straight percentage factor and instructed staff to develop a new means of calculating administrative costs. After that action, I advised the Council that we would retain the City's auditor to develop the new method for determining administrative charges. The present system that we are now using ls the direct result of our auditor's recorrmendation. Since the auditor's letter of November 10, 1982, we have slightly modified the formula (see enclosed mater ia 1).
It is obvious that the charging of administrative costs on special assessment projects is not new to the City of Columbia Heights. In fact, the method of
Page 2
ch arging a public States. although
administrative costs and other related cost Items associated with improvement project is a common practice among_cities in the United The City of Columbia Heights has used this method for many years, the method has been modified on occasion.
As you know, the City Council establishes policy and staff implements that policy. Thus, if there is dissatisfaction on the part of the City Council either with our present method of developing administrative costs and charges or if there Is no longer interest in including administr ative costs as an assessable element of project costs on public improvement projects, then the City Council may change the policy and instruct staff accordingly.
If the City Council chooses to modify the method of calculating administrative charges, then a number of alternatives are available. Let me briefly outline a few: 1.Do not charge any administrative costs on special assessment projectsand instead charge all Assessing Department costs against our generaltax levy.2.Develop a flat percentage factor to charge administrative costs onspecial assessment projects. If this cost does not equal our actualcosts for undertaking special assessment projects, the differencewould be charged under the City's general tax levy.
3.The next alternative may be a partial charge, whether a percent factoror based on actual costs, with the remainder being covered under theCity's general tax levy.4.The next method of d�veloping administrativ e costs would be on anactual hours and labor costs (as �e are presently doing).
5.The next alternative is that the City of Columbia Heights no longerhandles special assessment billing and instead we certify all specialassessment billings to the County for collection. Under this arrangement, the City may include administrative costs but only for the costof preparing for a Public Improvement Hearing and the final SpecialAssessment Hearing.6.Another possibility may be to add a b)lling charge to the annualspecial assessment bill for those parcels where property owners arepaying the assessment over a period of time . In this way, we willonly be bJlling for administrative costs to those property ownersutilizing the Installment payment method. In addition, administrativecharges for preparing data for public improvement hearings and specialassessment hearings would be included as part of the total special assess-ment levy.
]. Another possibility may be to only charge administrative costs if an account becomes de H nquent. This wou 1 d be a significant sum of money and may be construed as part of the penalties for an account becoming de 1 i nquent.
Obviously, the above is not a complete listing of all alternatives available in handling administrative charges on special assessment projects. However, it may provide food for thought and may become the basis of additional dis-cussion.
In addition to the above, I wou 1 d suggest tha·t the Counc i 1 consider reviewing its present policy regarding financing of special assessment projects. As you
Page 3
know , we are presently assessing 100% of all project costs to benefitting properties. Some communities handle special assessments in the same manner as the City of Columbia Heights,whereas other communities do it on some proportionate basis between benefitting properties and a general tax levy, and other cities finance special assessment project costs 100% against a general property tax levy. Obviously, not all these alternatives are available in the State of Minnesota or are practical within the City of Columbia Heights.
I would suggest that some of the following may be alternative methods for handling the financing of special assessment projects. 1.Assess all project costs as we are presently doing.2.Assess nothing to benefitting properties, and instead financeprojects by issuing bonds and then repaying the bonds throughgeneral tax levies.3.Establish a true public improvement revolving fund. In thisinstance, projects would be assessed, however , monies receivedwould be plowed back into the public improvement revolving fundfor use on future projects. Any debt which may be incurred toinitiate a PIR fund would be repaid through general taxation.4.Another alternative to financing projects is through the use ofgrant monies such as the Commu·n i ty Development Block Grants orRevenue Sharing Grants. Obviously, this is a less realistic andless viable alternative.
5.The fifth possibility may be to use com�inations of any of the above.
I trust that the above information, as well as the attachments , will provide the Council with additional insight to our present method of calculating administrative costs on special assessment projects. In addition, I trust the information will also give food for thought regarding any policy changes the Council may desire regarding administrative costs or the financing of special assessment projects.

ITEM: Authorization to Seek Bids For ,.Q BY: Evelyn Nygaard _g..._ BYQ4� Fire Alarm Improvements in City r--NO: Buildings to Comply with ADA DATE: February 24, 1994

ITEM: Authorization to Seek Bids For ,.Q BY: Evelyn Nygaard� BYQ�Fire Alarm Improvements in City ,.. NO: Buildings to Comply with ADA DATE: February 24, 1994
The City's evaluation of buildings and facilities adopted by the City Council on March 8, 1993identified changes needed to provide for accessibility and compliance with the Americans WithDisabilities Act.
The existing fire alarm system at City Buildings are not accessible to persons with mobilitydisabilities. For example, the pulls are located too high off the floor to be reached bysomeone in a wheel chair. Moreover, there is currently no way to wam hearing impairedpersons of danger.
Monies are available through the Community Development Block Grant Funds for this project.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
Move to authorize Staff to seek bids for fire alarm improvements to City buildings to complywith the requirements of the Americans With Disabilities Act.

ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT: CITY MANAGER PUBLIC WORKS
BY:�BY: M.Winson J./,(,Jc,. e. DATE: 2/25/94 DATE:
Terry Randall has been selected for the position of Working Foreman for the Sewer/Water Department. Terry started with the Public Works Department in August 1990. He holds licenses in both water and wastewater operation. He has also recently successfully
completed correspondence courses through California State University on operation and maintenance of both water distribution systems
and wastewater collection systems.
The current contract with the I.U.O.E., Local 49 employees, has the entry level wage for foremen at $13.25/hour. Three Sewer/Water
Department employees (2 Maintenance II and 1 Maintenance III) would be making considerably more money. It is felt lhat it is not equitable or desirable for the most Iesponsible employee in a department to be one of lhe lowest paid. It is recommended lhat Mr. Randall be started al the 2-year rate of $15.24/hour. This would result in only one employee having a higher rate and two employees
having essentially lhe same rate as the foreman (due to heavy equipment pay differential which the foreman does not receive). Mr.
Randall would move to the next slep after one year, based on satisfactory performance.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: Move to approve the starting rate for Terry Randall, the Sewer/Water Working Foreman at the 2-year
(Step IV) rate of $15.24/hour based on the 1994 Labor Contract between the City of Columbia Heights and the International Union of
Operating Engineers, Local No. 49.

Authorization is requested to send Investigator Bryon Fuerst of the Police Department to the
use of Force and Firearms Instructor Course hosted by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal
Apprehension from July 25 to August 5, 1994. The purpose of this training is to prepare
Officer Fuerst to teach department members in the use of force and firearms issues. At the
completion of this course, Officer Fuerst will be a certified firearms instructor and use of
force instructor.
We currently have no persons who are qualified both as firearms and use of force instructors.
It is important to the department and the City that we have a person certified in both of these
disciplines so that appropriate cross-training can be given in the use of force as it may
escalate to the use of deadly force through the use of a firearm. This course will provide us
with such an officer.

of Force/Firearms Instructor Course to be held in the metropolitan area from July 25 to
August 5, 1994, sponsored by the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension T.raining and Develop

SUBJECT: Use of CDBG Funds for Acquisition and Relocation in the SheffieldNeighborhood
As per your request yesterday, I have checked on restrictions in regard to use ofCommunity Development Block Grant(CDBG) funds for housing acquisition/relocation/clearance.
1. In regard to need to meet low to moderate income benefit, we do not have to meetthis requirement with our "Acquisition and Clearance of Deteriorated Properties" CDBGproject. We will be acquiring blighting influence properties which will meet theproject and Federal objectives of "Activities to address slums or blight on a spotbasis".
2. As far as "strings" attached to use of the CDBG funds, there are some. Attachedis an information sheet from Anoka County reflecting some of the issues to beaddressed when acquiring property with CDBG program funds. Included are therequirements to provide a relocation plan and assistance "to each low to moderateincome household displaced by the demolition of housing or by the conversion of a LMIdwelling to another use as a direct result of the assisted activities."
In addition, in most cases, we must provide for one for one replacement of unitsdemolished(within a three year period after demolition). In the SheffieldNeighborhood, this would include the provision of 4 replacement dwelling units whichcould be provided through the sale and development(with 4 single family houses) of4 of the City/HRA owned lots on 38th Ave NE. Other acquisitions/relocation with nonCDBG funds would not require one for one replacement.
Prior to acquisition of properties with the 1994 CDBG funds, we must complete ourenvironmental review for the project and secure Minnesota Historical Societyclearance on acquisition and clearance of any structures over 50 years old.
3. On clearance of single and duplex housing structures, the Davis-Baconrequirements do not apply.
4. I have asked JoAnn Wright, Anoka Co. CDBG Administrator, for any other concernsand will let you know if she has anything to add to this list.
Please call or see me if you have any questions in regard to the above.

REGULATIONS, RULES, POLICIES
Monitoring
All local governmental units and nonprofit organizations that are recipients of CDBG funds must be monitored for compliance with HUD regulations and recordkeeping requirements through on-site inspection and interview at least once every two years. Anoka County may, within its discretion, monitor the activities of subrecipients more often if it is deemed necessary. The Anoka County CDBG Program is monitored annually by HUD.
Monitoring of subrecipients includes verifying compliance with project objectives and checking for mmunum basic records that show separate accounting of receipt and disbursement of CDBG funds, along with supporting documentation. See the Accounting and Recordkeeping Section and other Sections of this Guide for further information.
URA and Section 104(d)
All acquisition and relocation activities are subject to the Uniform Relocation Assistance (URA) and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 USC 4601 et seq.), as amended, and/or Minnesota Statutes Section 117.52. In addition, all CDBG-financed projects which include clearance or change-of-use of housing must be reviewed for compliance with Section 104(d) (often called "Barney Frank" for its Senate author). The Urban Anoka County CDBG Program has an Antidisplacement and Relocation Assistance Policy, as well.
The County's CDBG Program will be implemented in such a manner as to minimize the direct and indirect displacement of tenants and owners from theirresidences and/or places . of business. CDBG-assisted activities must be structured to avoid displacement to the greatest extent possible.
Anoka County requires that relocation assistance will be provided in accordance with County Policy, the URA, and related regulations found in 49 CFR part 24 (including Section 104(d) requirements), regardless of the actual funding source for the relocation assistance, to each low/moderate income household displaced by the demolition of housing or by the conve:-sion of a low /moderate income dwelling to another use as a direct result of assisted activities. The local agency will submit a plan detailing how relocatio:i assistance will be provided.
Anoka County requires the replacement of all occupied and vacant occupiable low /moderate-income dwelling units demolished or converted to another use as. a direct result of activities assisted with funds provided under the CDBG Program. Replacement units will be located in the same jurisdiction in which
�,.
-
the units were displaced. It may be permissible to locate the replacement units in a neighboring community provided a mutual agreement is reached and Anoka County approves the location. All replacement housing will be provided within three years of the commencement of the demolition or rehabilitation relating to conversion. Before obligating or expending funds that will direcf..ly result in such demolition or conversion, subrecipients will make public and submit in writing to Anoka County any required information; the County will forward the information to the HUD Field Office.
Construction
� �..,.
All construction activities �ssisted with CDBG funds must con:ply with all applicable Fede ral, State, and local laws and policies regarding labor standards and contract wage requirements, Section 3, equal opportunity, contractor eligibility, procurement, housing quality standards, energy efiiciency, and any other such requirements. The Anoka County Coi;nmunity Development Manager maintains a detailed construction package which includes all pertinent
information.
A pre-construction conference between the Community Developm�nt Manager, the property owner, and the contractor is required prior to com mencement of construction. All legal and contractual requirements are reviewed during this . conference.
Environmental Review
All CDBG activities except administration and planning are subject to environmental review requirements. The process will result in one of three determinations:
(1)Categorically excluded: The project is one considered by theapplicable Federal authorities to be "categorically exempt" and does notnegatively impact any areas covered in the initial process of review.No further review is necessary.
(2)Requiring review: All activities not included in ithe first category.
(3)
Use the procedure described in the regulations and the forms attachedto complete the process of revie¼·.
Environmental Impact Statement Required: Step 2 above identifies a major impact on site contamination requ1r1ng clean-up, statement must be completed.
If the process required in the human environment or an environmental impact
If, at the end of the review process r "'quired in Step 2 aboYe, County or City staff have determined that the project will not significant1�� affect the human environment, a combined "Notice of Finding of No Significant Impact" an:i "Notice of Re<,1.1est for Release of Funds" must be pubiisbed. After publication, copies of affidavits and a "Request for Release of Funds" and Certification art· sent to HUD.
Clearance from the Minnesota Historical Society is usually part of this process.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM 1994 APPLICATION PAGE 1
I.PROJECT NAME:Acquisition and Clearance of Deteriorated Properties
II.PROJECT ACTIVITY:
IV.
This activity involves the acquisition and clearance of deteriorated properties. To be considered, a property must be uninhabitable due to building conditions which are detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of its occupants. In addition, a property must be 1) either vacant or have a willing seller, and 2) be difficult to condemn under the hazardous building section of the Uniform Building Code of the State of Minnesota. Acquisition would comply with the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquis ition Policies Act of 1970, as amended, and by the HRA's Real Property Acquisition Policy.
.Properties will be identified by HRA Staff in cooperation with the City's Building Department. owners will be contacted by HRA Staff and inspections will be conducted. An evaluation will be made of the property's physi cal condition, feasibility of rehabilitation and potential marketability. The City of Columbia Heights will be responsible for making a final determination of the properties to be acquired under this program. During the first 12 months, use of funds will be restricted to the Sheffield Neighborhood (as defined below in paragraph# VIII).
This activity will be carried out by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Columbia Heights in coordination with the City under a program known as the "Neighborhood Revitalization Program ...
If the Fiscal Year 1994 funds a.re not all used in the Sheffield Neighborhood during the first 12 months, remai·ning funds will be used on acquiring property on a City-wide, spot acquisition basis.
III.PROJECT DURATION:
This activity is part of a continuing effort by the HRA and City to acquire substandard and deteriorated properties which are considered blighting influences in otherwise stable neighbor hoods.
PREVIOUS FUNDING:
A grand total of $246,920 in CDBG funds have been used for this program since 1988. Six properties have been acquired, and one vacant lot redeveloped into a single-family home and one other lot is in the process of being developed with a new house and garage by Habitat for Humanity.

V.COMMUNITY PROBLEMS ADDRESSED:
VI.
This activity will help the City address the problem of vacant, substandard housingwhich represents not only a blighting inf luence on surrounding properties, but also ahazard to the general public. According to the 1990 Census, the City had 209 vacanthousing units (7,950 total units) . The City and HRA Staff have conducted several••windshield" surveys of the City and found more than 70 properties which aresubstandard.
The City has found that the Sheffield Neighborhood (as defined in# VIII) is in need of a concentrated housing rejuvenation effort •. From July 1, 1994 through June 30, 1995, funds from this Fiscal Year 1994 project will be used exclusively in the Sheffield Neighborhood. Please see enclosed Sheffield Neighborhood Revitalization Plan.
This activity is considered eligible under CDBG regulations found at 24 CFR Part 570.201 (a & d) "Acquisition and Clearance Activities" and meets CDBG National Objectives found at 24 CFR Part 570.208 (b) (2) "Activities to address slums or blight on a spot basis."
FUNDING SUMMARY:
Total projected funding for Fiscal Year 1994 ••.••••••••••••••• $139,000
The funds will be expended as follows:

The priority project area, the Sheffield Neighborhood is defined as the area within the following boundaries:
-south Boundary:45th Avenue between Easterly edge of Keyes Park and Central Avenue.
-East Boundary:Johnson Street ( rear property lines of Easterly properties) and Easterly edge of Keyes Pa.rk.
-west Boundary:Central Avenue between 45th and 47th Avenues.
-North Boundary:47th Avenue between Johnson Street (rear property lines of Easterly properties and Central Avenue).
The above defined area is hereinafter referred to as the "Sheffield Neighborhood".
The Sheffield Neighborhood includes a concentration of low income families in blighted type duplex and multiple unit housing. There are 518 dwelling units in the Sheffield Neighborhood and of those, there are 119 single family units, 184 are part of duplex units (92 actual duplexes), 56 are part of four-plexes (14 actual four-plexes), and 159 are part of multiple unit apartment buildings (1 six-plex, 4 seven-plexes, 2 eightplexes, 3 eleven-plexes, 1 sixteen-plex and 3 twenty-plexes) . There are also 6 commercial properties in the Sheffield Neighborhood. Over 45% of the residential properties are rental in nature.
The goal of the Sheffield Neighborhood Revitalization Plan is to "Restore the balance of Housing (rental versus owner occupied) o.f the Sheffield Neighborhood to a level more typicall y found in lower density residential districts throughout the City". Included in this goal/plan is redevelopment/reutilization of residential properties in the area of moderate income housing and redevelopment of the commercial area so as to establish clear delineations or buffers between Central Avenue commercial development and the housing units along Tyler Street.
LARGER EFFORT:
This activity is part of a larger effort by the City and HRA of Columbia Heights to eliminate substandard housing within the City and improve neighborhoods.. Other activities include housing rehabilitation and homeownership assistance (Le. first-time homebuyers program).
See Single-Family/Duplex-Housing Rehabilitation section for additional information.
CONTACT PERSON:
This activity will be carried out by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Columbia Heights. Questions concerning the program should be directed to Don Schneider at 782-2854 or 782-2855.

XII.DEMOLITION OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING:
PAGE 4
In an effort to minimize displacement and the destruction of affordable housing, theCity, to the extent possible, will limit its list of properties to those which havebeen vacant for at least one year prior to acquisition. The purpose of this activityis to eliminate blighting conditions and encourage new development. The housing to beconstructed will, in most circumstances, be market-rate. Therefore, sites to beidentified wiJ.l be exempt from the one-for-one replacement requirement.

CITY OF COLUMBIA HEIGHTS
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: PAT HENTGES, CITY MANAGER
DATE: FEBRUARY 25, 1994
/0.r{
RE: CITY MANAGER'S REPORT -FEBRUARY 28, 1994, CITY COUNCIL MEETING
1)SOLID WASTE REPORT
See attached Solid Waste Report for January, 1994.
2)1993 ANNUAL REPORT
The 1993 Annual Report has been distributed to the City Council. If you wish for the City Mana-ger
to highlight any items at the City Council meeting, I would be willing to do so or after you have had
time to review the report; I can provide further comments or answers to you_r questions at the March
14th Council Meeting. Alternatively, I can schedule a briefing at a future work session.
3)CITY LEGAL SERVICES PROPOSAL
Legal services proposals are due by March 3, 1994. After I've reviewed the proposals, I will schedule
a work session to discuss both the possibility of in-house services and the possible award of a contract
to one or more firms. I have preliminarily discussed the transition and/or extension of services with
Greg Woods past March 31, 1994. I am meeting with Mr. Woods on Tuesday to discuss the specifics
of any transition arrangements or agreements. I will report back to the City Council as soon as more
details become available.
4)OFF SALE LIQUOR OPERATIONS
Attached please find a table comparing 1992 gross profit with 1993 gross profit within the liquor funds.
Please note that this report will be consistent with the financial statement that the auditors are in the
process of assembling and includes all adjustments for payroll accruals, Honeywell contract, and late
accounts payable items thus bringing down the operating income from $220,844 reported on the
December report to the $189,909 identified on this report. In the case of a proprietary fund, it is
typical to have a change in operating income as a result of adjustments of the nature identified above.
5)ACCAP/THEA TRE HEIGHTS PROJECT
I previously forwarded information that Councilmember Nawrocki received from the City of Anoka
regarding a similar request by ACCAP to have property designated as a Leasehold Cooperative
designation for 3932 Central A venue. Enclosed please find information submitted by ACCAP on the
financial projections and implication of the leasehold cooperative designation. I am in the process of
reviewing the information with the City Attorney to determine if it meets the tests as outlined by state
law. Mr. Woods did indicate that ACCAP is entitled to a public hearing and the City is required to
render a decision as to whether or not ACCAP has met the factual findings as outlined in state law.
I am suggesting that we meet once more with ACCAP in work session to discuss th.is project, and that
that meeting occur some time before March 28th, which would be the first date for the scheduled
public hearing.
6)ENVELOPE SPECIALTIES
Mr. Miske of Envelope Specialties has requested that he be allowed to occupy his building located at
455 37th Avenue N.E. As you are aware, construction delays on the project will prevent him from
completing the building before the March 1st, 1994, deadline as outlined in the redevelopment
agreements with the HRA. Mr. Miske has asked that temporary use of the building be allowed while
he completes some of the interior and exterior work. The building code does allow a temporary
occupancy permit. The permit can be issued with conditions outlining utilization of the building and
with a specific deadline or expiration date. I have asked that the Building Official and fire inspectors
review the building to determine any hazardous conditions or safety issues with partial occupancy. For
example, exiting, fire. protection, ventilation will be reviewed so that it doesn't pose any hazard to
individuals. On the other hand, items such as office finishes, completion of all the restroom facilities,
etc. could be waived temporarily with conditions. I will keep the Council informed on the status of
this issue.
7)LELAND STAUCH CONVICTION
Attached please find further information regarding Leland Stauch's appeal of his housing convictions
to the Court of Appea.1s. As you are aware, Mr. Stauch was convicted on each of the misdemeanor
counts of operating his rental units without a license ..
8)HONEYWELL CONTRACT
I have met with officials of Honeywell regarding the progress and performance of the Honeywell
contract to date. They have provided some interim financial reports showing energy savings through
November, 1993 of $15,119. Additionally, we discussed the performance of their contract as it relates
to responding to problems at various buildings. In July, 1994, we will be reviewing what amounts to
a full year operational experience on the Honeywell contract. At that time, I will have Honeywell
present a report at a regular work session of the City Council. This will also aid the City in our 1995
budgeting, in that the 1994 budget did not to any large extent reflect energy savings as a result of the
contract.
9)POLICE STAFFING
The Council inquired as to the timing of discussions on police staffing increases or changes. Originally,
this item was scheduled for discussion on Saturday, February 26. Mayor Sturdevant has requested that
some furthe.r internal department discussions occur prior to bringing this item to the City Couucil.
Again, I expect this item to be fully discussed at a March work session.
10)CITY OPEN HOUSE
I have tentatively scheduled a city-wide Open House in conjunction with the spring activities for May
17, 1994. Please check yollr calendars so that you can schedule your attendance at the event. The
Open House will be very simila.r to the Public Works event, except that i.t will include all city
departments. We will also make available tours of other c-ity buildings, such as City Hall/Fire, Police
operations to school groups. Hopefully, the Mayor or other council members could be available during
those days to assist with the tours. Carol Frey attended Richfield's Housing Fair this year, and is very
excited about the possibility in future years to develop a local housing and remodeling fair for
Columbia Heights. Richfield's Housing Fair includes a tremendous involvement from the local private
sector, including contractors, home suppliers, financial institutions, real estate agencies, etc. This
coming budget year, the City Council may want to establish a contingency account to implement such
an effort in Columbia Heights.

2)Solid Waste Abatement Advisory Task Force
Several industry representatives from the metal, paper, and plastics recovery industries reviewed the
current state of recycling markets. Also present was Tim Nolan from the Office of Waste Management
who is with the Coordinated Market Development Unit. He suggested that Minnesota has a promising
outlook in markets for recyclables. Companies are interested in the large quantity of recyclable
materials available here and are expanding here in order to take advantage of these. Tim emphasized
that maintaining our quality of materials (ie., uncontaminated loads, well sorted) is very important. He
presented several examples of businesses which have settled in Minnesota taking advantage of the
variety of materials available. These range from de-inking paper plants to molded pulp products,
composite plastic, bio -mass, foam fabricators, and so on.
3)FinaUring Dates for Household Huardous Waste Collection
The late summer Household Hazardous Waste Collection will be in East Bethel on August 27th. Once
again, the County will notify all residents within the County of the dates for Hazardous Waste
Collections at one time, rather than trying to focus advertisements in specific parts of the County.
4)County Video on Fee Changes
The County is preparing a video tape that could be used on local access channels describing the garbage
fees and the tipping fee changes. We are looking forward to getting that as soon as possible and putting
it on the government channel.
5)Collection of Re-chargeable Batteries
According to the Pollution Control Agency, a statewide collection program for cordless electrical
appliances and rechargeable batteries was to go into effect by April 1994. According to our information
through the Solid Waste Task Force, this will not be in force this April. We are publishing information
on rechargeable battery disposal in the Spring City Newsletter. There is a rechargeable battery hotline
which we are directing people to use, otherwise we are asking them to store the batteries until the
collection system is in place.
6)Score Reimbursement
Columbia Heights received a reimbursement on recycling expenses from Anoka County of $20,272 for
the last six months of 1993. The 1993 total reimbursement was $32,478.40. We also received an
$8,422.92 supplemental solid waste abatement grant check. (The bonuses are based on the cumulative
monies available after all six month reimbursements are paid).

Dear Mr. Hentges

CITY OF CGUJM3lA HEIGHTS
A UniledWay Agency
Enclosed are financial projections that reflect the alternatives I presented to the Council. I used your real estate tax figures which I agree with even though your tax figures reflect less of savings than I roughly estimated. The savings generated from the leasehold cooperative after paying the City $442.82 in lost revenue permits ACCAP to reduce rents on average by $10 per unit and increase the scope of the renovation $30,000. Or as certain members of the Council seemed to want the renovation could be increased $50,000 if no further rent reduction is passed on.
If the Council makes a positive factual finding we would agree to fund a $174,000 to $194,000 {depending on the rent level alternative used) renovation verses the $150,000 we had otherwise planned. A lot can be done with $30,000. Especially when all the basics will be taken care of with the funds already committed. There is never enough money in a construction project.
Additionally ACCAP would agree to sell the building to the cooperative at our cost plus any additional capital invested to fund negative cash flow or additional improvements less any cash withdrawn. In other words, no escalator for inflation or appreciation. This language will be put in the Master Lease as the Cooperative's buyout price.
We agree that language should be added to the Master Lease requiring new residents to be seniors or disabled.
As I discussed at the meeting this project goes through regardless of the Council's willingness to contribute by making a positive factual finding that the tax savings will be used to reduce rents or provide for additional renovation.
Please give me call if you think of anything else I can provide.

i-C.:J
Due to unforeseen circumstances the completion of the building has been delayed. However, the business had to relocate into the building because the second temporary lease was lost. We have had a tremendous loss of revenue because of our inability
t::: 5
to complete the building totally and have all machines in operation.
I am requesting that we be allowed to operate to meet production needs and ultimately stay in business. We feel the inside of the
building can be completed by April 1, 1994.

FEBRUARY 28, 1994
SHEFFIELD REDEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Since the distribution of the agenda, individual City Council members have discussed the possibility
of including the townhome development and rehabilitation alternatives within the report. The attached
alternatives have been revised and are attached for your review.
In the event you are inclined to amend the plan, I suggest that the language within the last paragraph
of page 8 be also revised to clearly outline City Council's intent or interest in promoting single family
new construction on the target blo,.:k as a primary or priority alternative. Generally speaking, including
both alternatives and a statement as to the Council's priorities should not have much of an impact on
the developer--request for proposal process. In the event it fa determined that single family
development is not feasible or single family project does not materialize, then the City can pursue other
projects without pursuing a formal amendment to the redevelopment and housing development plan.
In summary, the inclusion of the two alternatives could in fact be an advantage further down the line.
However, I suggest that the last paragraph on page 8 be also amended to read as follows:
"It should be noted by the readers of this plan, that the City's highest priority for the target
block is the promotion of a redevelopment alternative that is of a single family --new
construction design as. opposed to a multi-family development, rehabilitation of existing
buildings, or continued rental operation of the buildings. The City feels that the balance of
the neighborhood or off-block areas could incorporate the latter alternatives. If City
development incentives are used on the off-block areas, conditions of approval should assure
substantial rehabilitation of the buildings and /or partial homestead requirements."

Enclosed you will find a letter from our Mayor and Council President to your Mayor. It relates to legislative approval of NSP' s dry-cask storage of spent nuclear fuel at the Red Wing Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plant. Also enclosed is an informational packet and a sample resolution of support.
We would request that you discuss it with the Mayor and Council and hopefully they will adopt it.
Failure to act will mean a loss of a very efficient, low-cost power source. Our NSP bills will escalate. In addition, Red Wing receives no local government aid because of our power plant tax base. If we lose the power plant, Red Wing qualifies for substantial local government aid. This means there is less to distribute to other cities.
By demonstrating strong support to our legislators, we can prevent this economic loss to our cities from occurring.
Please call us if you have any questions. We can arrange for you to get additional information and/or have a City or NSP official attend a meeting.
Thanks so much and we would appreciate hearing from you.

The Honorable Mayor Joseph Sturdevant Mayor of Columbia Heights 590 40th Avenue NE Columbia Heights, MN 55421-3878
Dear Mayor Sturdevant:
As you have no doubt heard, Northern States Power Company is seeking approval from the State Legislature to temporarily store spent nuclear fuel on site in large, well-protected dry casks at the Red Wing Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plant.
Since 1986, at least six other nuclear plants have stored this material in similar containers until the Federal Government's long-�erm storage facility is ready to receive high-level waste. In addition, all applicable State and Federal regulatory agencies have approved NSP's proposal.
The City of Red Wing needs your help. We strongly support the legislature granting this approval. If it is not approved and the plant is forced to shut down, the loss of this efficient power source will drive all of our electric rates up. This is conservatively estimated at $1.8 billion from our city . treasuries and our constituents in the form of higher electric bills.
The power plant is a significant tax revenue for the c:ty. If the plant is shut down, our tax base is lost. Red Wing would soon start collecting local government aid, taking money away from other cities.
On behalf of the City, we feel our best alternative is for the legislature to approve this temporary storage. We all can "win" by avoiding higher electric rates and lost local government aid. The facility is in our "front yard" and the City of Red Wing, along with the vast majority of our citizens, favors this proposal and accepts the very minimal risk. Won't you join us? We need your help.
Enclosed you will find an informational packet and a sample resolution. We would respectfully request your council's approval and forwarding a copy to your legislators and one returned to us.
If you have any questions or .wish any additional information, please contact us or our City Administrator, Steve Perkins, at the above numbers or address.
Thanks for your consideration and help.
Sincerely,
.----?

Supporting Legislation to Allow for the Temporary Storage
of Spent Fuel by Northern States Power at their
Prairie Island Nuclear Power Plant
WHEREAS, Northern State's Power Company's Prairie Island Power Plant has produced safe, low-cost electricity for more than twenty years and consistently ranks as one of the lowest cost, safest, most productive and efficient nuclear plants in the country; and
WHEREAS, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has repeatedly recognized the Prairie Island Plant as one of the best run nuclear facilities in the country; and
WHEREAS, if the Prairie Island Power Plant is forced to close, the loss of this safe and low-cost base load twelve-hundred mega watt electric generating plant would cost not only NSP customers more in higher rates, but remove an efficient power source from the Mid-Continent Area Power Pool (MAPP) and thereby adversely affect all upper midwest electric consumers; and
WHEREAS, the Prairie Island Power Plant contributes substantial annual real estate tax payments, thereby reducing and in some cases eliminating traditional educational and local government aids, and the shut down of this plant with resulting lost tax base would cost the State and other cities and school districts millions of dollars in increased State-aid payments thereby affecting adversely the vast majority of Minnesota taxpayers; and
WHEREAS, the Prairie Island Power Plant will reach maximum capacity of its temporary storage facility for spent fuel in 1994 and all necessary permits and approvals from State and Federal regulatory agencies have been obtained so as to allow for the temporary storage of older spent fuel in dry casks, a method safely utilized by at least six other nuclear power plants; and
WHEREAS, the Prairie Island Power Plant is located within the City of Red Wing and the City and the vast majority of residents strongly favor approval of State legislation to permit this temporary spent fuel storage and further that the city has requested the support of other Cities.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of _____________ that it supports the city of Red Wing's efforts to seek approval in the legislature to allow on-site temporary storage of spent nuclear fuel from the Prairie Island
Plant until the U.S. Department of Energy meets its obligations to complete a national high-level permanent waste_ repository.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the (City Administrator/City Clerk) is hereby authorized and directed to forward a signed copy of this resolution to the Governor and state legislators representing the City in the State legislature and in like manner notify the City of Red Wing of the city's adoption of this resolution.
Adopted by the City council this day of _______ , 1994.

RESOLUTION NO. 94-13
SUPPORTING LEGISLATION TO ALLOW FOR THE TEMPORARY STORAGE OF SPENT FUEL BY NORTHERN STATES POWER AT THEIR PRAIRIE ISLAND NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
WHEREAS, Northern State's Power Company's Prairie Island Power Plant has produced safe, low cost electricity for more than twenty years and consistent 1 y ranks as one of the lowest cost, safest, most productive and efficient nuclear plants in the country; and
WHEREAS, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has repeatedly recognized the Prairie Island Plant as one of the best run nuclear facilities in the country; and
WHEREAS, if the Prairie Island Power Plant is forced to close, the Joss of this safe and low cost base load twelve-hundred mega watt electric generating plant would cost not only NSP customers more in higher rates, but remove an efficient power source from the MidContinent Area Power Pool (MAPP) and thereby adversely affect all upper midwest electric consumers; and
WH2REAS, the Prairie Island Power Plant contributes substantial annual real estate tax payments, thereby reducing and in some cases eliminating traditional educational and local government aids, and the shut down of this plant with resulting lost tax base would cost the State and other cities and school districts millions of dollars in increased State-Aid payments thereby affecting adversely the vast majority of Minnesota taxpayers; and
WHEREAS, the Prairie Island Power Plant will reach maximum capacity of its temporary storage facility for spent fuel in 1994 and -all necessary permits and approvals from State and federal regulatory agencies have been obtained so as to al low for the temporary storage of older spent fuel in dry casks, a method safely utilized by at least six other nuclear power plants; and
WHEREAS, the Prairie Island Power Plant is located within the City of Red Wing and the City and the vast majority of residents strongly favor approval of State legislation to permit this temporary spent fuel storage and further that the City has requested the support of other cities.
NOW, THSREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Columbia Heights that it supports the City of Red Wing's efforts to seek approval in the Legislature to allow on-site temporary storage of spent nuclear fuel from the Prairie Island Plant until the U.S. Department of Energy meets its obligations to complete a national high-level permanent waste repository.
Resolution No. 94-13 page 2
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Administrator is hereby authorized and directed to forward a signed copy of this resolution to the Governor and State legislators representing the City in the State Legislature and in like manner notify the City of Red Wing of the City's adoption of this resolution.
Adopted by the City Council on the 28th day of February, 1994.
