CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION Mayor Amáda Márquez Simula Councilmembers Connie Buesgens Rachel James Justice Spriggs Laurel Deneen City Manager Aaron Chirpich City Hall—Shared Vision Room, 3989 Central Ave NE Tuesday, September 02, 2025 6:00 PM MINUTES CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL The meeting was called to order by Mayor Márquez Simula at 6:07pm.

Also Present: Aaron Chirpich, City Manager; David Cullen, Public Works Director; Mitch Forney, Community Development Director; Kevin Hansen, Public Works Director; Jesse Hauf, IT Director; Sara Ion, City Clerk; Joe Kloiber, Finance Director; Rochelle Widmer, City Engineer; Stacey Kvilvang, Ehlers; Erik Simonson, Excel Energy; Bob Lux, Alatus. WORK SESSION ITEMS 2. Group Ice Breaker. Mayor Márquez Simula led the group in an ice breaker discussion regarding what meeting participants are proud of accomplishing. 3. Xcel Energy: Community Relations Manager Erik Simonson. Public Works Director Hansen introduced Erik Simonson with Xcel Energy. Erik Simonson thanked the council for allowing him to attend and present information related to the work that Xcel is doing to take the lead on clean energy initiatives, giving back to communities in Minnesota, and also addressing concerns related to infrastructure. Additionally, he informed the Council that he will be the point person for constituent issues that the Council is receiving in terms of complaints related to failures in the power grid. The more specific information that can be provided when issues arise, the better he can help address the issue. Most recent analysis indicated that power failures are occurring due to vegetation concerns, and Xcel recognizes that there is opportunity to invest more into trimming vegetation. He believes that the work they will be doing will address many of the issues in combination with addressing power substation updates. Council consensus was that they are very concerned about the repeat power outages and want information about the best way to report power outages. Additionally, they wanted more information on power outages that are not related to storm issues and notifying residents in advance. The council also wanted information related to reporting streetlight outages and additional partnership with critical infrastructure and underground power lines. 13 Item 2. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES September 02, 2025 City Council Work Session Page 2 Erik Simonson stated that he can be a primary contact for any concerns that the Council has and can take care of any issues related to planned maintenance outages, storm outages and streetlight concerns. He clarified that ultimately if Xcel does not know about the issues, they cannot address them. He is looking to be a partner on issues moving forward and will continue to update council and staff on the work being completed to resolve the concerns highlighted. 4. 4300 Central Development Update. City Manager Aaron Chirpich introduced the topic to the council, Bob Lux from Alatus and Stacey Kilvang from Ehlers were also in attendance to address questions and concerns from the council related to the redevelopment of the property at 4300 and the current status of bonds issued to Alatus. City Manager Chirpich informed the council that staff is proposing a different type of bond to be issued related to this project, these would be general obligation TIF bonds factoring in the timeline to complete the project. Staff feels that this is mitigating the risk for the City but also planning to begin work on the project in the next two to three years. The only alternative to issuing bonds would be taking back the property and ending the loan agreement with Alatus (if they were to default on their loan). Consensus of the council was that the proposed plan outlined by staff was what they would like to proceed with. Additionally, the council would like increased communication from Alatus and the City related to the plans for the property to the community. Bob Lux thanked the council for having him and stated that he appreciated the feedback that the council has given Alatus related to the Ratio project as well as the 4300 Central Project. He first addressed the ongoing concerns related to the ventilation issues at the Ratio Apartment Complex and that he is fully engaged in the issue and he stated that he felt there was an incorrect design and implementation of the ventilation system for the building. He mentioned to the council that there has been a lot of work completed related to the 4300 Central property behind the scenes, including moving out existing tenants for demo work to be completed, keeping the property maintained, and working with the Mississippi Water Shed District as well as MNDOT to refine site plans. Alatus is committed to this project, and it is important to continue to push forward, and he would like to meet with the council every five to six months. Finance Director Joe Kloiber also informed the council about communication to citizens regarding the delay in the project. He finds it very hopeful that there is not a problem renting the apartments if they can get them built. The issue is interest rates and not the overall success of the project. City Manager Chirpich stated that staff will continue working on plans to communicate updates on the 4300 Central Avenue project and to also continue to work with Ehlers and Alatus on the new bond issuance. 14 Item 2. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES September 02, 2025 City Council Work Session Page 3 5. Overview of 2026 Proposed Budget Finance Director Joe Kloiber introduced the topic to the council and gave a brief presentation on the proposed 2026 budget. The overall gross tax levy is proposed to be 9.2%, this would be reflected in the Truth in Taxation statement that is provided to all taxpayers. There are three components to the proposed levy increase: operating expense increases, the new street rehabilitation program, and key priorities to position the City for success in 2026 and beyond. Director Kloiber additionally discussed the key activities and budget initiatives for 2027, 2028, and 2029. Council consensus was to move forward with the budget as presented at the second council meeting in September. Councilmember Buesgens added to that she would like to see an increase to youth enrichment programing, she would like to see $20,000 allocated to this initiative for this year and the library budget for 2026. Mayor Márquez Simula would also like to see some additional funding for the Senior Program and Murzyn Hall. City Manager Chirpich clarified that this would likely be something that could be flexed into the budget without it being factored into the levy. This is something that the City Manager and Finance Director will work on. The council consensus was that they would like to see this addition included, but not as an increase to the proposed levy. 6. Renew Legislative Services Agreement with Lockridge, Grindal and Nauen P.L.L.P. City Manager Aaron Chirpich introduced the topic to the council and highlighted the work that Lockridge, Grindal and Nauen (LGN) has done for the City and upcoming initiatives for 2026. These initiatives include MSC funding, city sales tax exemption and special legislation related to the 4300 site TIF district. There is no proposed increase in the contract, and they have built a lot of momentum for our requests. Council consensus was that they would like to move forward with renewing the contract. City Manager Chripich indicated that this item will be brought forward for approval at the last September council meeting. 7. Polling Place Designations for 2026. City Manager Aaron Chirpich introduced the topic to the council, as well as the proposed accommodation to satisfy the request of the school district to remove all polling places from school district locations. Staff clarified that moving all three polling places to one foot print would be too many voters for one location and that this was not supported by Anoka County Elections. Council consensus was to move forward with partnering with the School District to move Precinct 4 from the Highland Elementary School to the High School Gym Portion of the 15 Item 2. City of Columbia Heights MINUTES September 02, 2025 City Council Work Session Page 4 Hylander Center and to leave Precinct 7 at Valley View Elementary. City Manager Chirpich will reach out to Superintendent Stenvik to see if this proposed plan is amenable. 8. City Manager Performance Evaluation Format. City Manager Aaron Chirpich introduced the item to the council as well as his proposed improvements to the current evaluation format. This format would include job performance ratings from city council members as well as feedback from division heads that have worked for the City Manager for one year. Council consensus was to move forward with the proposed changes in the staff report and to have an evaluation completed by the end of October. 9. Council Corner. The council reviewed the September calendar, notified each other of upcoming events and discussed proclamations for the September meetings. Cricket Field in Columbia Heights Mayor Márquez Simula introduced the topic to the council, and Councilmember Buesgens gave additional information about a local cricket group that is active in the community. Plymouth, Brooklyn Park and Minneapolis have opened cricket fields. She would like to explore converting a softball field for this purpose. City Manager Chirpich added that there are some pickup games occurring in the City right now, and that this addition could be added for analysis for the upcoming updates to the parks master plan. Board and Commission Member Attendance at City Events Mayor Márquez Simula introduced the topic to the council. Councilmember Buesgens elaborated on how she would like to see commissioners get more involved in City Events. She proposed that commissioners attend one or two community events a year. Consensus of the council was that board and commission members would be asked to attend a city event for a minimum of two hours every year. This information will be added to the interview process for newly appointed members. Polish School Park Reservation Mayor Márquez Simula introduced the topic to the council, and that the Polish School is using the space near the splash pad this upcoming weekend.

For questions, please contact Administration at 763-706-3610. The meeting was called to order in the Library Community Room by Melanie Magidow at 5:31pm. Members present: Melanie Magidow; Chris Polley; Olga Herrera; Theresa Strike; Amina Maameri. Members remotely present: Amáda Márquez Simula (City Council Liaison). Members absent: N/A. Others present: Renee Dougherty (Library Director); Nick Olberding (Board Secretary). Public present: N/A. 1. The Agenda was approved as is. 2. The Minutes from June 4, 2025, Library Board Meeting were moved and approved. 3. Review of 2025 Operating Budget: 58.08% of the year and 53.16% of the budget expended. Community Forum: Opportunity for public input. No correspondence and no public in attendance. The CHPL website now has a contact form to submit questions or concerns: https://chplmn.org/board Old Business: 4. Proposed 2026 Budget Update: The proposed budget was submitted to city finance and administration with a projected 1.79% increase over 2025; a formal presentation will be made at the October City Council work session. 5. Parking Lot Update: The parking lot is complete, with completion of landscaping and native planting scheduled for the fall. Additional required handicapped parking spaces were added next to the building. The new lot has been used on busy days and for well-attended events such as the open house for Central Avenue Redevelopment. New Business: 6. Staffing Update: One of our Library Pages has resigned and two more are likely to do so in the fall (one due to moving from high school to college, and another is advancing from college into a medical career). The first step to returning to full staffing will be to reestablish the Library Aide position for a consistent 14 hours per week. This position has been vacant since late 2023. The position will be posted internally to allow current city staff an opportunity for promotion. After an Aide is in place, we will assess how many additional Library Pages should be hired. 7. Great North Star Read Together: Melanie brought this event to the Board’s attention and asked for their opinions. The two-hour event would take place from 11am-1pm on Saturday, September 20. It is a way for communities to show support and celebrate Minnesota libraries for the vital role they play. A toolkit was provided with aspects to be considered in hosting such an event. Everyone was in favor of participating; Mayor Amáda said she would be willing to say a few words to kick off the event and could read a story for children in attendance. We hope to also recruit the Friends of the Library; more planning and information to come—we have one more Board meeting before the event date. 8. Policy Review and Revision: a. Behavior: Renee provided the Board with current version of this policy with proposed revisions based on research of similar policy language from Anoka County, Ramsey County, Hennepin County, and Stillwater Public Libraries. The Board asked about and discussed subjects such as patrons sleeping in the library, body odor and strong fragrances, securely covered beverages, privacy screens on public computers, and 18 Item 3. whether staff could/should search a patron’s property under suspicion of theft. It was determined that the paragraph on the right to search patrons’ bags should be removed. A MOTION to approve the revised Behavior Policy with the Board’s amendments was made, seconded, and approved. b. Distribution of Free Publications and Community Postings: Renee presented a revised policy that merged two existing related policies. Previous policies were “Bulletin Board Usage & Distribution of Brochures” and “Free Newspapers, and Other Handouts.” Some of the language was clarified, and more emphasis on local literature and events should take priority. The Board thought it was more concise to merge the two and clarify the language. A MOTION to approve the merged/revised Distribution of Free Publications and Community Postings Policy was made, seconded, and approved. 9. Uncollectable Debt Write-off Procedure: Included in the meeting packet was a staff procedure detailing the process of writing off old debt from patron accounts. This was reviewed by the City Finance Department and is included to make the Board aware of current procedure. Under MN Statute 541.053, entities cannot recover debts older than 6 years. Instead of manually removing the uncollectible debt from patron accounts, we are automating the process. This procedure will also allow expired, inactive accounts lingering in the Library’s integrated library system software to be deleted which will result in a cleaner and more accurate user and material database. Director’s Update: 10. May/June Board Report: Provided as an FYI. a. The DNR Park Pass Program has been extended for another 3 years and now includes all Anoka County Library branches. Previously, passes were only available at Columbia Heights and Fridley’s Mississippi branch. Passes are now holdable, like all other library materials. b. Olga asked if we could do a Library tour during our next meeting to explain to Board members more about the inner workings of the library and get a glimpse of some of the day -to-day processes. c. Melanie asked about volunteer opportunities; specifically, what she should tell community members if they ask about volunteering. Adults can be referred to Adult Services Librarian Elizabeth Ripley, who oversees adult volunteers. Teens who would like to volunteer should be referred to Youth Services Librarian Eliza Pope. “Volunteens” are usually only active during the summer when school it out of session. Volunteers perform tasks such as pulling requests, shelving, straightening, assisting with program preparations and other projects, and cleaning. 11. Board Books: a. Chris: Fort Cynthia C.

According to the report, Lynn Lembcke found that the Columbia Heights Police Department was substantially in compliance with Minnesota Statutes, section 13.824. The noted discrepancy — failure to notify BCA within 10 days of installation or use of an ALPR system — has since been corrected.

ITEM: Resolution 2025-073 to Amend the 720 Budget for Cybersecurity Threat Mitigation Plan DEPARTMENT: Information Technology BY/DATE: Jesse Hauf, IT Director / Sep, 8, 2025 CORE CITY STRATEGIES: (please indicate areas that apply by adding an “X” in front of the selected text below) _Community that Grows with Purpose and Equity _High Quality Public Spaces X _Safe, Accessible and Built for Everyone X _Engaged, Effective and Forward-Thinking _Resilient and Prosperous Economy X _Inclusive and Connected Community BACKGROUND The cybersecurity threat landscape is evolving rapidly, and combating modern threats requires a balance of technical expertise, advanced hardware/software, and ongoing staff training. The City of Columbia Heights IT Department’s ongoing cybersecurity mission is to:  Prevent disruption of City services  Prevent data leaks  Prevent unauthorized surveillance To support this mission, the IT Department has developed a Threat Mitigation Plan designed to strengthen the City’s cybersecurity posture through a multi-pronged strategy addressing identified security gaps. This plan combines technical controls, user training, vendor access restrictions, and proactive monitoring. The plan prioritizes:  Training and awareness for IT and City staff  Expansion of tools for technical control and monitoring  Regular penetration testing to ensure defenses remain effective SUMMARY OF CURRENT STATUS The purpose of this amendment is to address gaps in 2025 funding. It does not represent the complete Threat Mitigation Plan, which is proprietary and available to the Council upon request. 1. Keeper Enterprise Password Management Keeper is the City’s current password management solution. Keeper securely stores credentials, enables safe sharing, and checks passwords against known data breaches. Expansion will begin with licensing for Police and Fire staff.  Current amount budgeted: $1,400  Keeper Enterprise Password Management + BreachWatch for 75 staff: $5,250 (Competitive Quote)  Amended budget amount: $3,850 CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA SECTION CONSENT MEETING DATE 09/08/2025 43 Item 7. City of Columbia Heights - Council Letter Page 2 2. Keeper Privileged Access Manager (PAM) Maintaining application updates and securely allowing new installations is challenging under the City’s least- privilege model, which removes administrative rights to reduce the risk of malicious software. Keeper PAM introduces policy-based privilege escalation for authorized applications, ensuring timely updates while maintaining security. It also provides:  A secure, auditable method for vendors to access the City network  Password rotation for service accounts that do not require human interaction  Keeper PAM (or competitive solution): $5,444 (Sole Source)  Amended budget amount: $5,444 3. Crowdstrike Identity Threat Protection (IDP) The City currently leverages Crowdstrike Endpoint Protection under Minnesota IT’s whole-of-state security program, supported by federal cybersecurity grant funding. Based on demonstrat ed value, IT recommends expanding protection to servers managing staff, vendor, and service account logins. This expansion is particularly important as Police prepare to onboard with the County’s computer -aided dispatch (CAD) and records management system (RMS), hosted by Tyler Technologies. The system requires exposing City identity servers to an external network, and Crowdstrike IDP with OverWatch offers robust hardening and monitoring capabilities.  Crowdstrike IDP with OverWatch: $7,631.02 (State Contract)  Amended budget amount: $7,631.02 4. Arctic Wolf Managed Security Awareness Training One of the most critical aspects of the Threat Mitigation Plan is continuous staff training. Current training through KnowBe4 has become time-intensive and outdated. Arctic Wolf offers engaging, short-form training modules designed to be more effective. Training will include:  New employee onboarding  Quarterly short-form training modules  Bi-annual phishing assessments The program will launch with Operation Zero Clicks, a six-week, City-wide initiative during Cybersecurity Awareness Month (October), featuring fun, interactive staff activities.  Current amount budgeted: $300  Arctic Wolf Awareness Training: $3,000  Amended budget amount: $2,700 Ongoing Funding The City has budgeted for incremental increases in cybersecurity funding beginning in 2026 and is actively pursuing additional support through a FEMA grant. IT has also worked with vendors such as Crowdstrike to secure incentives, including three months of no -cost service, aligning renewal terms with the 2027 budget year. Total Budget Amendment: $19,625.02 Funding for these initiatives will come from Fund 720 (Information Technology), which has a sufficient balance to support these purchases while maintaining the 40% minimum reserve if fund balance is required. 44 Item 7. City of Columbia Heights - Council Letter Page 3 STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends amending the 2025 Information Technology budget, as outlined in the attached resolution, to approve the purchase of software and services to support the Threat Mitigation Plan. Individual purchases are within the City Manager and Division level purchase limits and do not need to b e acted on by Council. RECOMMENDED MOTION(S): MOTION: Move to waive the reading of Resolution 2025-073, there being ample copies available to the public. MOTION: Move to adopt Resolution No. 2025-073 amending the Fund 720 budget to authorize the purchase of software and services to support the Threat Mitigation Plan .

RESOLUTION NO. 2025-073 AMEND FUND 720 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY BUDGET TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS FOR CYBERSECURITY SOFTWARE AND SERVICES The City of Columbia Heights IT Department has established a Threat Mitigation Plan to reduce the City’s cyber attack service. To support this Threat Mitigation Plan and ensure adherence to the IT departments ongoing cybersecurity mission, IT has identified additional software and services required to implement this plan in a timely fashion. Staff have obtained competitive quotes for the necessary software and services. Following a security review, staff have identified gaps in security. Purchasing these software and services accomplishes a portion of IT’s Threat Mitigation Plan. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Columbia Heights amends the 2025 Information Technology budget to appropriate $19,625.02 from Fund 720 for the purchase of software and services to support the Threat Mitigation Plan.

ITEM: Resolution 2025-074 to Amend the 437 Budget for a Disaster Recovery Site Network Switch DEPARTMENT: Information Technology BY/DATE: Jesse Hauf, IT Director / Sep, 8, 2025 CORE CITY STRATEGIES: (please indicate areas that apply by adding an “X” in front of the selected text below) _Community that Grows with Purpose and Equity _High Quality Public Spaces X _Safe, Accessible and Built for Everyone X _Engaged, Effective and Forward-Thinking _Resilient and Prosperous Economy X _Inclusive and Connected Community BACKGROUND The IT Department has established a disaster recovery site within the City of St. Cloud’s data center. This site provides a dedicated data warehouse for backups, redundant VPN connectivity, and a server restoration environment in the event of a complete outage in Columbia Heights. It replaces the former backup location which is geologically too close, equipment has reached end of life, future network connectivity is uncertain, and capacity no longer meets recovery requirements. SUMMARY OF CURRENT STATUS A network link between Columbia Heights and St. Cloud has been successfully established. However, during the build-out of this connection, a configuration change introduced a security vulnerability. The network switch deployed at the disaster recovery site does not support the security features needed to properly safeguard the link. To address this, a new switch with the necessary capabilities must be purchased. The existing switch will be repurposed for other uses within the City. Aruba 6300M switch, power supplies and shipping allowance from competitive vendor Converge Technologies Total budget amendment: $8,835.00 Funding for this purchase with come from Fund 437 Information Technology Capital Equipment which has sufficient balance to support this purchase. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends amending the 2025 Information Technology Capital Equipment budget, as outlined in the attached resolution, to approve the purchase of a Disaster Recovery Site network switch.

RESOLUTION NO. 2025-074 AMEND FUND 437 INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY CAPITAL EQUIPMENT BUDGET TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS FOR A DISASTER RECOVERY SITE NETWORK SWITCH The City of Columbia Heights IT Department has established a Disaster Recovery Site collocated at the City of St. Cloud’s datacenter. To support the connection to this site and ensure high security of data in transit, IT has identified additional equipment necessary to complete this project. Staff have obtained competitive quotes for the necessary equipment. Following a security review, staff determined that the existing switch is not capable of securing the site-to-site link. Replacing the switch is required to secure the link. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Columbia Heights amends the 2025 Information Technology Capital Equipment budget to appropriate $8,835.00 from Fund 437 for the purchase of a Disaster Recovery site network switch to support the security of our Disaster Recovery Site connection.

EDA Resolution 2025-22 requests that the City, on behalf of the EDA, raise the EDA tax levy from $375,000 in 2025 to $413,900 in 2026. Since the EDA tax levy is under the administration of the City Council, the City must annually approve the EDA tax levy. During review of state statute staff identified an additional public hearing process which is required when a city increases its EDA levy. Resolution 202 5-70 is the first step in this process which is highlighted in section 469.107 sub. 2 of state statute attached below. The EDA has requested a levy increase in order to add additional funds to its current and future initiatives. Since the EDA levy is a City tax levy the increase is added onto the city’s overall budget. The $38,900 increase in the EDA levy contributes to the overall increase in the City’s gross tax levy for 2026. Contributing to the direct reinvestment of the funds into the city. The EDA will distribute the funds to various programs and initiatives through its goal setting in 2026. RECOMMENDED MOTION(S): MOTION: Move to waive the reading of Resolution 2025-70, there being ample copies available to the public.
