Packet Page Number 31 of 259 AGENDA NO. G3 AGENDA REPORT TO: James Antonen, City Manager FROM: Charles Ahl, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Contract with H. Alan Kantrud for 2012 City Attorney and Prosecutor Services DATE: November 2, 2011 INTRODUCTION/ BACKGROUND The City of Maplewood has retained the services of Alan Kantrud as the City Attorney/City Prosecutor since the middle of 2006. Mr. Kantrud is currently operating under a contract that expires at the end of 2011. The current agreement with Mr. Kantrud has an automatic renewal clause that required notice to Mr. Kantrud by September 30th that the City intended to not renew or revise the agreement. The City Manager notified Mr. Kantrud in September that the City intended to renegotiate the terms of his service, but wished to retain him under new contract conditions. The preliminary budget approved by the City Council in establishing the maximum levy called for a very small increase in the cost for the services provided by Mr. Kantrud and his staff. The current 2011 contract calls for Mr. Kantrud to provide full-time service as the City Attorney and the City Prosecutor, as well as providing for office space for Mr. Kantrud and his assistant. Mr. Kantrud requested a small increase in the service that he provides, because he has not received an increase for 2+ years. A review of Mr. Kantrud and his team’s service by the Management Team has revealed a satisfactory performance and acceptable level of prosecution and interaction as the City Attorney and as the City Prosecutor. The proposed contract for 2012, proposes that Mr. Kantrud’s salary be increased from the current level of $198,000 to the proposed amount of $204,000, which is a 3.03% increase. This is partially offset in a monthly rental charge that is levied to Mr. Kantrud of $1,450 per month. This has been increased by $200.00 per month over the current contract, as Mr. Kantrud is being provided a larger office, as well as a private office for his assistant, who is currently provided a cubical. Thus, the financial impact of this to the General Fund is the $6,000 increase in fees, less the increase in rental expense of $2,400; or an increase of $3,600, which is a 1.82% increase in net payment to Mr. Kantrud and his associates. Mr. Kantrud is also provided with High Deductible Health Insurance and Dental Insurance consistent with the contracts for Mr. Antonen and Mr. Ahl. A final change in the contract from 2011 to 2012 is that Mr. Kantrud will no longer be provided with a membership at Maplewood Community Center and will provide for his own cell phone plan. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached contract with H. Alan Kantrud for 2012 as City Attorney/City Prosecutor and authorize the Mayor and City Manager to execute said contract. Attachments: 1.

Ambulance rates have been increased over the past several years, most notably with a 21% increase for 2008. The Medicare law that became effective in 2002 has resulted in decreasing collection rates from 65.3% to less than 50%. The last property tax subsidy to the Ambulance Fund was in 2005. The Medicare law limits allowed rates as follows: 2010 2011 Basic life support $340.23 $340.37 Advanced life support 1 404.03 404.19 Advanced life support 2 584.78 585.01 Charge per mile 6.87 6.86 The City’s established rates for 2011 and proposed for 2012 are as follows: 2011 2012 Non-transport $ 583.00 $ 600.00 Basic life support 1,540.00 1,586.00 Advanced life support 1 2,024.00 2,085.00 Advanced life support 2 2,233.00 2,300.00 Charge per mile 19.98 20.58 RECOMMENDATION Staff requests approval of the attached resolution setting Ambulance rates for 2012 at the above rates shown. Packet Page Number 41 of 259 2 RESOLUTION ADOPTION OF THE 2012 AMBULANCE RATES WHEREAS, the City of Maplewood has established ambulance rates, and WHEREAS, city staff has reviewed the ambulance rates.

Packet Page Number 42 of 259 AGENDA REPORT TO: James Antonen, City Manager FROM: Michael Thompson, Deputy Public Works Director/City Engineer Bill Priefer, Public Works Operations Analyst SUBJECT: Approve Resolution Accepting State Aid Advancement Funds DATE: November 1, 2011 INTRODUCTION There are currently no funds available in our Municipal State Aid Street account. We have applied for payment on Project 02-07, County Road D/T.H. 61 to Southlawn Avenue, but are unable to get paid by Mn/DOT until there is a positive balance in our account. In order to address the shortfall, we are able to apply for and receive an advance on future funds. Council action for the request is required. BACKGROUND Each year a certain amount of money at the state level is available to cities in our situation for advance encumbrances. An advance encumbrance is essentially an interest-free loan to the city to be repaid with future allotments. This is a good program for cities like ours that had aggressive construction programs, as it allows the utilization of funds that other cities are not using. This replaces the City’s bonding requirement for project improvements. The State Aid advance funding guidelines recently changed to allow municipalities to advance up to five times their annual construction allotment or $4,000,000, or whichever is less. Our 2011 construction allotment of $998,419 allows us to request up to $4,000,000. However, we currently have an advance of $3,000,000 which allows us to request an additional advance of $1,000,000 at this time. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the city council approve the attached resolution requesting an advance encumbrance of $1,000,000 to our Municipal State Aid Street account. Attachment: 1. Resolution Agenda Item G6 Packet Page Number 43 of 259 MUNICIPAL STATE AID STREET FUNDS ADVANCE RESOLUTION WHEREAS, the Municipality of Maplewood desires to receive payments on public improvements to our State Aid Street system which will require State Aid funds in excess of those available in its State Aid Construction Account, and WHEREAS, the advance is based on the following determination of expenditures: Account Balance as of November 1, 2011: $ 0 Less estimated disbursements for: Project 138-121-003 Project 138-121-004 Project 138-112-005 Total Advancement Amount: $ 1,000,000. WHEREAS, repayment of the funds so advanced will be made in accordance with the provisions of Minnesota Statutes 162.14, Subd. 6 and Minnesota Rules, Chapter 8820.1500, Subp. 10b, and WHEREAS, the Municipality acknowledges advance funds are released on a first-come-first-serve basis and this resolution does not guarantee the availability of funds. NOW, THEREFORE, Be It Resolved: That the Commissioner of Transportation be and is hereby requested to approve this advance for financing approved Municipal State Aid Street Projects of the Municipality of Maplewood in an amount up to $1,000,000. I hereby authorize repayments from subsequent accruals to the Municipal State Aid Street Construction Account of said Municipality in accordance with the schedule herein indicated: Repayment from entire future year allocations until fully repaid I HEREBY CERTIFY that the above is a true and correct copy of a resolution presented to and adopted by the Municipality of Maplewood, County of Ramsey, State of Minnesota, at a duly authorized Municipal Council Meeting held in the Municipality of Maplewood, Minnesota on the 14th day of November, 2011, as disclosed by the records of said Municipality on file and of record in the office.

Packet Page Number 55 of 259 AGENDA REPORT TO: James Antonen, City Manager FROM: Michael Thompson, City Engineer/Dep. Director of Public Works Scott Schultz, Utility Superintendent SUBJECT: Approval of Purchase of Two Submersible Sewage Pumps for Lift Station #6 DATE: October 31, 2011 INTRODUCTION The Sanitary Sewer Lift Station #6 located at 1035 Lakewood Drive North near Beaver Lake is in need of pump replacement. BACKGROUND This lift station was built in 1986, and is the largest volume lift station in Maplewood. It is still operating with the original pumps. Both pumps are nearing 20,000 hours of run time. This is several thousand hours beyond the life expectancy of these pumps. In the past four years the pumps have experienced considerable wear and have required extensive repair. It is no longer cost effective to repair them. Considering the high volume of flow this station serves, replacing these pumps is essential. BUDGET The Finance Manager has verified the Sanitary Sewer operating fund has sufficient funds to cover the cost of this priority replacement. Two quotes for the pumps are listed below: WW Goetsch Associates, Inc. Two new Hydromatic S8FX 40 hp pumps $31,360.00 Total including tax, freight and installation $35,316.00 SY/COM, Inc. Two new Hydromatic S8FX 40 hp pumps $33,980.00 Total including tax, freight and installation $38,116.00 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the city council approve the purchase of the two pumps including tax, freight and installation totaling $35,316.00 from WW Goetsch Associates, Inc.

Director of Public Works Scott Schultz, Fleet Superintendent Bryan Nagel, Street Superintendent SUBJECT: Approval of Purchase of Toolcat 5610 F-series Work Machine DATE: November 4, 2011 INTRODUCTION The Public Works Department is in need of a Toolcat Work Machine to continue to provide adequate maintenance service throughout the city. This piece of equipment is essential for sidewalk snow removal, but will also be utilized year round by all divisions in Public Works as explained below. The council will consider authorizing this purchase utilizing existing Public Works Operating budget funds. BACKGROUND Currently the City operates a Toolcat 5600 Work Machine. This machine was purchased in 2007. It was an addition to the fleet at that time because of its versatile application throughout Public Works. The Toolcat machines (5600 and 5610) can operate all of our current attachments that are used by existing Bobcat Skid Loaders. The purchase of the new Toolcat 5610 F-Series machine is needed due to the additional 6 miles of sidewalk the city has acquired over the last two years, and forecasted future sidewalk installations. With our current snow removal equipment we are unable to keep up with large snowfalls and are unable to meet the city’s sidewalk snow removal policy that states sidewalks are to be cleared within 48 hours of the completion of street plowing operations. This machine will also be used for improved snow removal at City Hall campus, the Community Center campus and throughout the City Wide Trail System. The Toolcat 5610 F-Series also has additional applications different from the Toolcat 5600. This machine has a PTO Driven rear end. This will allow it to be utilized by the Parks and Street divisions in the summer season. It can be used for Street mowing operations and it will be used by the Parks Division for Ball Field maintenance and other Recreation Program Field maintenance needs. Also, because of these additional applications this machine will perform, a large Capital Improvement Fleet purchase planned for the Parks Division in 2013 can be eliminated in the amount of $30,000.00. BUDGET The amount quoted for the machine under MN State Contract #2979 is $51,246.71. This high priority purchase will be funded equally by three Publics Works Operating Funds. The Finance Manager has verified the Public Works budget has adequate funds for the amounts listed: Street (101-502) $17,082.25 Snow and Ice (101-514) $17,082.23 Parks (101-602) $17,082.23 Total Cost $51,246.71 Agenda Item G13 Packet Page Number 59 of 259 RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the city council approve the purchase of the Toolcat 5610 F-Series Work Machine under MN State Contract #2979 from Tri-State Bobcat, Inc including tax, delivery and training totaling $51,246.71 utilizing existing operating funds from the Public Works Department budget.

Public Works staff received a request to review current placement of the No-Parking signs along 7th Street and the effects these signs have on the intersection of Mayhill Road and 7th Street. Council review of the request is recommended. BACKGROUND A letter was received by Public Works from the residence of 2713 7th Street East (see attachment) in 2007 requesting the installation of “No-Parking” signs in front of their house to deal with issues such as vehicles blocking the mail boxes, no available parking for visitors, and damage to the front lawn caused by vehicles parking in front of their house that work at the Century Animal Clinic. It was also noted that at the time of the letter that there were “No-Parking” signs located along the south side of 7th Street east of Mayhill Road. According to the May 30, 2007 Agenda Report, No Parking Sighs on 7th Street, East of Century Avenue, (see attachment) the following observations were noted:  “This is a common problem with older businesses in Maplewood that do not have adequate on-street parking available to them.”  “Unfortunately there is no way to require more on-site parking for the vet clinic.” The recommendation of the Agenda Report was to install bituminous curb along the road, because shifting the “No-Parking” signs to the north side of the street would only shift the issue further down the street or onto adjacent streets. The current conditions have parking restricted on the north side of 7th Street for the following times:  Monday – Friday from 7 a.m. – 5 p.m.  Saturday from 7 a.m. – 1 p.m. There are currently no parking restrictions on the south side of 7th Street or Mayhill Road. In order to see how parking habits have changed I reviewed the aerial photographs from 2006, 2008, and 2009 (see attachments). In 2006 vehicles can be seen parked towards the east end of 7th street along the north side of 7th. In 2008 and 2009 vehicles are seen parked on the south side of 7th Street Agenda Item G14 Packet Page Number 62 of 259 just east of the intersection of Mayhill Road and on the east side of Mayhill Road just south of the intersection. During a site visit on September 30, 2011 I witnessed similar parking patterns. CONCLUSIONS The “No-Parking” signs along the north side of 7th Street have accomplished the goal of keeping the business parking located along or closer to the business property, but have shifted the issue to a new location. By shifting the signs back to the south we will be further extending the debate of which side should have the parking restrictions. The issue today is one of sight distance impact at the intersection of 7th Street and Mayhill Road. Parking restriction for an intersection according to MN State Statue and City Code do not apply to an uncontrolled intersection without a sidewalk such as Mayhill Road and 7th Street. Therefore, I would propose the following short term solution and possible long term solution for this issue.  Short Term Solution o Coordinate with Public Works to restrict parking by installing “No-Parking” signs 30 feet from the tangent points of the road on the south side of 7th and Mayhill Road south of the intersection (see attached map)  Long Term Solution o As part of a future street reconstruction project, work with the property owners to add additional on street parking along the south side of 7th Street adjacent to the business parking and coordinate with owners for a possible parking lot expansion RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the city council approve the recommendation to install “No-Parking” signs 30 feet from the tangent points of the road on the south side of 7th Street and on Mayhill Road south of the intersection.

Public Works staff received a petition requesting the intersection to be signed as an all-way stop. Council action on the request is recommended. BACKGROUND A petition was received by Public Works from the residents of 1627 Sandhurst Avenue (see attachment) requesting the intersection of Sandhurst Avenue & Kennard Street be signed as an all- way stop (see attachment). The petition noted that there was an accident at the intersection in July of 2011 and there is concern for the safety of children who may be playing or biking in the street. The parking lot for Sherwood Park is located approximately 400 feet north of the intersection of Sandhurst and Kennard on the west side of Kennard Street. The placement of stop signs in the city is regulated by and consistent with the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (Mn MUTCD). This manual is adopted by the city ordinance to regulate all street signage, markings, and signals. City staff and the City’s consultant S.E.H. have evaluated the intersection with respect to the criteria set forth by the Mn MUTCD for the application of stop signs. City staff gathered traffic volume data at the intersection and speed data on Kennard Street north of the intersection. S.E.H. performed site investigations, reviewed the collected traffic data, and provided an intersection evaluation memo (see attachment). S.E.H.’s memo, dated October 25, 2011, states that the intersection failed to meet the minimum criteria set for by Mn MUTCD for an all-way stop under the following categories:  Vehicle Crash History o An intersection with 5 or more reported crashes in a 12-month period that are susceptible to correction by an all-way stop is considered to have a crash problem (Mn MUTCD Criteria) o Police records show that there has been only 1 crash in the last 6 years at this intersection which is well below the above listed criteria Agenda Item G15 Packet Page Number 74 of 259  Traffic Volume o The vehicular volume entering the intersection from the major street approaches (total of both approaches) averages at least 300 vehicles per hour for any 8 hours of an average day (Mn MUTCD Criteria) o The total averaged vehicles per day (both approaches), 160 vehicle on Kennard Street and 130 on Sandhurst Avenue, are well below the 300 vehicles per hour criteria listed above  Traffic Speed o If the 85th-percential approach speed , that speed below which 85% of the traffic is traveling, of the major-street traffic exceeds 40 mph, the minimum vehicular volume warrants are 70 percent of the values listed above o This rule does not apply as the 85th-percential approach speed north of the intersection is 30 mph which is below the above listed criteria S.E.H.’s field review of the intersection revealed sight restrictions at the intersection which impact the speed at which drivers can safely access the intersection. It was further noted that even if sight restrictions were improved through mediation efforts this would not fully resolve the relatively low safe approach speeds. The Mn MUTCD provides for the use of engineering judgment in the case of restricted sight distance and the potential use of stop signs. S.E.H.’s memo provided the following recommendation:  “Due to the relatively low safe approach speeds to access this intersection, with or without improved sight distance, we recommend the stop signs be installed on Sandhurst Avenue at Kennard Street.” CONCLUSIONS Staff has reviewed the October 25, 2011 memo from S.E.H. along with the traffic data and recommends the installation of stop signs at the intersection of Sandhurst Avenue and Kennard Street in order to sign the intersection as an all-way stop. This recommendation will address the issue of sight restrictions and relatively low safe approach speeds as noted in the October 25, 2011 memo from S.E.H. and is constant with the criteria set for by the Mn MUTCD. RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the city council approve the recommendation to install stop signs at the intersection of Sandhurst Avenue and Kennard Street in order to sign the intersection as an all-way stop.

Sohrweide, PE, PTOE DATE: October 25, 2011 RE: Sandhurst Avenue/Kennard Street Intersection Control SEH No. MAPLE 117779 Task 1.0 The City of Maplewood has received a petition for an all-way stop at the intersection of Sandhurst Avenue/Kennard Street. The petition sites a recent vehicle crash at the intersection, cut-thru traffic, and the proximity of Sherwood Park. The intersection is located in a residential area with 30 mph speed limits and is currently uncontrolled. At your request we have evaluated this intersection for the need of traffic control. This review included a review of traffic count and vehicle speed data collected by City staff and a field review of the existing conditions. Criteria for the installation of intersection control are established by the Minnesota Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (Mn MUTCD). To justify an all-way stop requires that the main roadway has 300 vehicles per hour entering the intersection (total of both approaches) for 8 hours. In addition, there must be a combined volume of at least 200 vehicles, pedestrians, and bicycles per hour entering the intersection (total for both approaches) for the same 8 hours, with an average delay of at least 30 seconds per vehicle during the highest hour. The traffic counts obtained by the City at this intersection indicate that there are 160 vehicles per day on Kennard Street and 130 vehicles per day on Sandhurst Avenue. These volumes are totals in both directions of travel and do not reach the thresholds necessary to justify an all-way stop. Another justification for an all-way stop is 5 vehicle crashes in a 12 month period that are of the type susceptible to correction with an all-way stop. According to Police records, the crash identified in the petition is the only crash in the last 6 years at this intersection. Traffic speed data was also collected by City staff on Kennard Street ½ block north of Sandhurst and at Sherwood Park. The 85th percentile speed is that speed below which 85% of the traffic is traveling. This speed is a significant input into determining appropriate speed limits. The results shown in the following table are indicative of a local residential street.

The Mn MUTCD provides for the use of engineering judgment in the case of restricted sight distance and the potential use of Stop control. Under current conditions, a northbound driver could safely access the intersection at approximately 18 mph, southbound at 8 mph, eastbound at 12 mph, and a westbound driver would need to stop. If the sight restrictions were improved through mediation efforts, the southbound movement could improve to approximately 15 mph and the westbound to an estimated 10 mph. Due to the relatively low safe approach speeds to access this intersection, with or without improved sight distance, we recommend that stop signs be installed on Sandhurst Avenue at Kennard Street. ts s:\ko\m\maple\common\117779\love-sandhurst-kennard-study102511.docx Agenda Item G15 Attachment 3 Packet Page Number 81 of 259 THIS PAGE IS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK Packet Page Number 82 of 259 AGENDA REPORT TO: James Antonen, City Manager FROM: Michael Thompson, Dep. Director of Public Works / City Engineer Steve Love, Assistant City Engineer Jon Jarosch, Civil Engineer I SUBJECT: 2012 Mill and Overlay Improvements, Project 11-15 a. Public Hearing b. Resolution Ordering Improvement after Public Hearing (4 votes) DATE: November 8, 2011 INTRODUCTION The public hearing for this project has been scheduled for 7:00 p.m., Monday, November 14, 2011. Notices of the public hearing have been mailed and published. The feasibility study was accepted by the council on October 24, 2011, along with a resolution calling for a public hearing. The city council will consider ordering the improvement following the public hearing. BACKGROUND It is important that the city maintains its infrastructure valued at roughly $200 million. The streets associated with the 2012 Mill and Overlay project have continued to deteriorate over the years with the streets having a current weighted average PCI rating of 63 (on a scale of 1 to 100) as indicated on the approved 2012 -2016 CIP. The Public Works Department routinely fields calls from residents on the current surface conditions of these roads. The maintenance staff spends a considerable amount of time maintaining these streets by patching minimum depth surface failures, which are visually apparent especially along Highwood and Linwood Avenues. The streets associated with the proposed project can be seen on the attached project location maps and are listed below:  Conway Avenue – (McKnight Road to Century Avenue)  Highwood Avenue – (McKnight Road to Farrell Street)  Linwood Avenue – (McKnight Road to Century Avenue)  Maryland Avenue – (McKnight Road to Lakewood Drive)  Roselawn Avenue – (Rice Street to Highway 61)  Stillwater Avenue – (McKnight Road to Lakewood Drive)  Southlawn Drive – (Beam Avenue to Legacy Parkway) The feasibility report was ordered at the July 27, 2011 city council meeting. A letter and information packet was mailed to residents and business owners on August 9, 2011 to provide information on the council’s action and to notify them that preliminary engineering and site review would begin within the subject areas. The informational packet contained a questionnaire, information about the proposed mill and overlay project, a project location map, and a letter explaining assessments. Informational neighborhood meetings were held September 19 and 20, 2011 at the Maplewood Community Center. Staff mailed out the invitation to 324 property owners. Approximately 50 residents Agenda Item H1 Packet Page Number 83 of 259 attended the September meetings. Meetings generally ran from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. including a presentation, question and answer session, neighborhood brainstorming session, and one-on-one conversations with city staff. Items presented at these meetings included the public improvement process, an explanation of why these streets were chosen for improvements, project scope, proposed assessments, and an estimated project timeline. Staff also solicited feedback from residents on other issues that could potentially be addressed by this project. Staff has also met with project stakeholders individually. From discussion with the residents some of the concerns raised relate to the proposed assessments, traffic speeds, and volume of bus/truck traffic. During the design phase of the project staff will review traffic calming measures that were discussed at the neighborhood meeting, such as dynamic speed signs, to determine if they can be incorporated into the project. A summary of the response to the questionnaires sent to the residents on the project streets, along with a summary of written comments, are attached to this report. On October 24, 2011 staff presented the feasibility report to the city council. The council accepted the report and called for a public hearing to be held on November 14, 2011. The feasibility report is available on the city web site www.ci.maplewood.mn.us under the 2012 Mill and Overlays “Projects” pull down tab. Copies for viewing are also available in the office of the City Engineer. On October 27, 2011 a letter was mailed to all property owners abutting the proposed project streets informing them of the time, location, and purpose of the public hearing. The letter also reiterated that staff is available to meet and discuss questions or concerns prior to the public hearing. Project location maps were also included in the letter outlining the proposed project streets. The information regarding the public hearing is available under the 2012 Mill and Overlays “Projects” pull down tab. DISCUSSION According to the approved 2012 – 2016 CIP the proposed mill and overlay project was to be split over the 2012 and 2013 construction seasons. However, due to the volume of complaints on the subject roadways and in the interest of creating efficiencies and cost savings by minimizing administrative costs, it has been proposed to construct all of the improvements in 2012. The main focus of the proposed project is the rehabilitation of the pavement surface. Staff is proposing to remove the top 2 inches of existing bituminous by milling (i.e. grinding) and thereby removing the damaged surface. Following the milling operation the milled pavement surface will be inspected for sub-grade failures and additional corrective measures will be applied as necessary. With the goal of the project being pavement rehabilitation there are no major utility upgrades proposed as part of this project. Minor upgrades associated with this project include the replacement of outdated sanitary sewer castings with castings meeting currents city standards and replacement of damaged storm sewer castings. Prior to the placement of the new bituminous overlay all castings will be adjusted to their appropriate heights. For those streets with existing concrete curb and gutter it is proposed to remove and replace damaged or broken panels prior to the placement of the new bituminous overlay. It is estimated that approximately 10% of the existing concrete curb and gutter will need to be replaced. Staff also recommends replacing all bituminous curb on the project streets as milling along the base of the curb can further damage the curb and would result in a seam in the bituminous near the base of the curb. Curbing is often used to contain and help transport storm-water runoff. Having a seam where the water is concentrated increases the risks of degradation to the roadway. Agenda Item H1 Packet Page Number 84 of 259 Existing pedestrian curb ramps will be reviewed and evaluated to ensure they meet current ADA requirements. The final steps of the project will be the placement of a new 2-inch bituminous overlay and the restriping of the road way. The project street widths range from 30 to 44 feet wide and are proposed to remain the same however striping could be adjusted to narrow lane widths. ASSESSMENTS An independent appraisal firm was hired to ascertain an opinion of special benefit received by properties within the neighborhood project area. This information was used to set the proposed special benefit assessment amounts for the project area. There are 178 assessable residential parcels and 30 assessable commercial parcels within the project area. Based on the City of Maplewood’s Pavement Management Policy, residential parcels are assessed on an equal “unit” basis. The City’s current residential unit assessment rate for a mill and overlay is $2,450. However, per Minnesota State Statute 429, the assessment amount cannot be greater than the benefit received by the property from the improvement. Therefore, an appraisal firm was consulted to determine the benefit that would be realized from the proposed mill and overlay project. According to the appraisal report, the residential assessment rates needed to be reduced from the current rate. The project assessment “unit” rates have been set based on the special benefit appraisal as follows:  Residential o Mill & Overlay Rate = $2,000/unit  Commercial o Commercial Special Benefit Assessment Rates = Per Linear Foot Basis  Commercial properties assessment rates per linear foot basis based upon special benefit appraisals BUDGET The total project budget approved at the October 24, 2011 city council meeting is $3,194,800. A portion of the improvements are proposed to be financed through a combination of special benefit assessments, consistent with the City’s assessment policy, in addition to potential 3M TIF Funds. If the 3M TIF funding is not available, the remaining project costs would be recovered by increasing the M.S.A. bonding. It is important to note that this funding plan does not utilize general tax levy dollars. The remaining funding sources include a combination of E.U.F., W.A.C., and Sanitary Sewer funds. The following is a summary of the estimated financing for the proposed project: FUNDING SOURCE TOTAL AMOUNT % OF TOTAL PROJECT M.S.A. BONDS $1,266,400 40% SANITARY SEWER FUND $59,900 2% ENVIRONMENTAL UTILITY FUND $46,200 1% SPECIAL BENEFIT ASSESSMENT $1,146,000 36% W.A.C. FUND $26,300 1% 3M TAX INCREMENT FINANCING $650,000 20% TOTAL FUNDING $3,194,800 100% ESTIMATED PROJECT COST RECOVERY Agenda Item H1 Packet Page Number 85 of 259 Even though this project does not utilize general tax levy money, the intent is to design this project with a number of bid alternate options. This would allow the City to reduce the scope of improvements by eliminating bid alternates if necessary. In essence, this would allow the bids to be received and the city can choose the project scope based on the cost it is comfortable with in order to proceed. CONCLUSION With the majority of the streets associated with the proposed project classified as major collectors the proposed improvements are necessary to maintain these vital links of the city’s infrastructure. The proposed improvements main focus is to rehabilitate the pavement surface condition of the project streets. The proposed improvements will reduce the costs and time spent by maintenance staff each year patching minimum depth surface failures and will provide an acceptable driving surface for users. The majority of the residential properties benefiting from the proposed improvements will be assessed a total of $2,000. This amount can be paid over 8 years on the taxes at an interest rate estimated at 6%. Assessment deferment options are available for those citizens meeting age or disability and income requirements where the assessment would cause financial hardship. Additionally, deferments are available to National Guard or other military reserves called into active service and undeveloped properties. If the project is ordered to proceed the staff would work with those individuals to file an assessment objection prior to the Assessment Hearing to be held at a later date next year.

You are leaving this cost to a few residents to pay for (not charging homeowners that do not have a driveway but have property on it) an unnecessary improvement with main outlet. This was NOT thought out at all!! The curbs on this street are fine. There is no reason for you to spend the few homeowners money for the cost of something that is not necessary! Why are you not charging by the foot? Homeowners are barely hanging on to their homes and you want to add extra that they cannot afford.

Linwood Linwood Ave.Linwood has become a main thoroughfare for Woodbury residents and others to get to McKnight. Heavy traffic of cars and trucks with nobody enforcing the speed limit and axle weights. With the land development in the area, has increased the traffic. Why should the people who live on Linwood have to pay for others that tear up the street. Linwood was re-surfaced less than 8 years ago, why does it need to be done again? Probably because of such high flow of traffic. Again, this should not be the responsibility of the Linwood residents to pay. Our property taxes have increased sustantially, the city needs to figure out how to allocate monies so that we don't have to pay extra to fix Linwood Avenue.

RReessoolluuttiioonn AAddooppttiinngg AAsssseessssmmeenntt RRoollll DATE: November 8, 2011 INTRODUCTION All three property owners have been mailed a notice of the exact amount of their reassessment, as well as notice that they must submit a written objection either at or prior to the hearing if they disagree with the reassessment amount. The city council should conduct the assessment hearing, receive any objections, and refer those objections to the staff for action at the November 28, 2011 council meeting. The council will consider approving the attached resolution adopting the assessment roll except for those property owners who have submitted objections. BACKGROUND This project involved the full street reconstruction (sub grade corrections, new aggregate base, new concrete curb and gutter where none existed before, and new bituminous pavement) of Holloway Avenue and streets in the Stanich Highlands Area (location map attached). The work also included the installation of new storm sewer and replacement of water main. Sanitary sewer main repairs and storm water treatment in the neighborhood are also included in the scope of the project. The Maplewood City Council ordered the preparation of the feasibility study at the June 1, 2009 meeting. On June 22, 2009, the city council accepted the feasibility report, ordered the public hearing, ordered the project, and authorized preparation of plans and specifications. The public hearing notice was published twice and notice was sent to the property owners. The public hearing was conducted at the July 13, 2009 council meeting. On July 27, 2009, the city council approved the plans, authorized to advertise for bids, and ordered the preparation of the assessment roll. Bids were opened on Wednesday, August 19, 2009 with Assessment Hearing and Adoption of the Assessment Roll on September 28, 2009. Construction started in summer of 2009 with construction finalized in 2010. During the assessment hearing process back in 2009, three property owners objected (1929 Kingston Ave E, 1930 Kingston Ave E, and 1935 Kingston Ave E) and appealed to Ramsey County District Court. The order for judgment was the reassessment as provided in Minn. Stat. 429.071. Accordingly the City is reassessing subject parcels and the City Council adopted a resolution on October 10, 2011 that accepted the assessment roll and called for an assessment hearing to be held on November 14, 2011 for purposes of reassessment. Agenda Item H2 Packet Page Number 101 of 259 ASSESSMENT DISCUSSION As mentioned above the City is reassessing as a result of the order for judgment which called for the reassessment as provided in Minn. Stat. 429.071. The following is the specific language from that Statute: 429.071 SUPPLEMENTAL ASSESSMENTS; REASSESSMENT. Subd. 2.Reassessment. When an assessment is, for any reason whatever, set aside by a court of competent jurisdiction as to any parcel or parcels of land, or in event the council finds that the assessment or any part thereof is excessive or determines on advice of the municipal attorney that the assessment or proposed assessment or any part thereof is or may be invalid for any reason, the council may, upon notice and hearing as provided for the original assessment, make a reassessment or a new assessment as to such parcel or parcels. Accordingly, the City is conducting this reassessment hearing on November 14, 2011 to make reassessment against the three subject parcels. In advance of this process an independent appraiser was hired to conduct a Special Benefits Appraisal for each of the three residential properties. The City received the appraisal documents on August 31, 2011. It should be noted that the proposed assessment against each parcel is $6,990 which is lower than the finding of special benefit for each parcel; which was found to be $7,900. By keeping the proposed reassessment amount at $6,990 it maintains consistency with similar assessments in this neighborhood for single family residential properties receiving a full street reconstruction with new storm sewer infrastructure. The proposed assessment of $6,990 also conforms to the City’s assessment policy, which states that the lower amount of the set rate or the special benefit shall be used. This ensures that the proposed assessment does not exceed the special benefit. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the city council approve the attached Resolution for the Adoption of the Assessment Roll for 1929 Kingston Ave E, 1930 Kingston Ave E, and 1935 Kingston Ave E, for the Holloway Avenue and Stanich Highlands Area Improvements, City Project 09-13.

Location Map Agenda Item H2 Packet Page Number 102 of 259 RESOLUTION ADOPTING ASSESSMENT ROLL WHEREAS, pursuant to a resolution adopted by the City Council on October 10, 2011, calling for a Public Hearing for purposes of Reassessment, the assessment roll for the Holloway Avenue and Stanich Highlands Area Improvements, City Project 09-13, was presented in a Public Hearing format, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429, and WHEREAS, the following property owners have filed objections to their assessments according to the requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429, summarized as follows: a) None to date. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA: 1. That the City Engineer and City Clerk are hereby instructed to review the objections received and report to the City Council at the regular meeting on November 28, 2011 as to their recommendations for adjustments. 2. The assessment roll for the Holloway Avenue and Stanich Highlands Area Improvements as amended, without those property owners’ assessments that have filed objections, a copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, is hereby adopted. Said assessment roll shall constitute the special assessment against the lands named therein, and each tract of land therein included is hereby found to be benefited by the proposed improvement in the amount of the assessment levied against it. 3. Such assessments shall be payable in equal annual installments extending over a period of 15 years, the first installments to be payable on or before the first Monday in January 2012 and shall bear interest at the rate of 5.4 percent per annum. To the first installment shall be added interest on the entire assessment from November 14, 2011 until December 31, 2011. To each subsequent installment when due, shall be added interest for one year on all unpaid installments. 4. The owner of any property so assessed may, at any time prior to certification of the reassessment to the county auditor, pay the whole of the reassessment on such property, with interest accrued to the date of payment, to the City of Maplewood, except that no interest shall be charged if the entire reassessment is paid within 30 days from the adoption of the reassessment. Owner may at any time thereafter, pay to the City of Maplewood the entire amount of the reassessment remaining unpaid, with interest accrued to December 31 of the year in which such payment is made. Such payment must be made before December 15 or interest will be charged through December 31 of the succeeding year. 5. The city engineer and city clerk shall forthwith after December 14, 2011 but no later than December 15, 2011 transmit a certified duplicate of this assessment to the county auditor to be extended on the property tax lists of the county. Such assessments shall be collected and paid over the same manner as other municipal taxes. Adopted by the council on this 14th day of November 2011.

Staff will be presenting various ordinance amendments to the planning commission and city council where the existing ordinance language no longer addresses the revised variance legislation as established by the State Legislature. BACKGROUND Reason for the Statutory Change In 2008, the City of Minnetonka issued a variance to a residential property owner permitting the expansion of a legal, non-conforming garage. The city, relying on a 1989 Court of Appeals decision, concluded that the grant of a variance was reasonable. The city’s decision was challenged by an adjacent property owner. Both the District Court and the Minnesota Court of Appeals agreed that the city’s decision was appropriate. On June 24, 2010, the Minnesota Supreme Court reversed the Court of Appeals and found the city’s decision impermissible. The Supreme Court examined the statutory definition of “undue hardship” in Minnesota Statutes, Section 462.357, and concluded that a city’s authority to issue a variance is limited to those very rare cases where the property cannot be put to “a reasonable use” without the variance. This establishes a high threshold for both the city and the property owner when considering variance requests. The Supreme Court reviewed the parallel county variance authority language that allows for variances in situations of “practical difficulties” or “hardship.” The Supreme Court found that the city authority was more limited because it did not contain the “practical difficulties” provision. The court explicitly recognized that it was changing a longstanding standard that cities have relied on in considering variance requests. In particular, the court specifically rejected a 1989 Court of Appeals interpretation of the phrase “undue hardship,” which allowed for the grant of a variance in circumstances where the “property owner would like to use the property in a reasonable manner that is prohibited by the ordinance.” Agenda Item H3 Packet Page Number 106 of 259 2 The Supreme Court stated that “unless and until the Legislature takes action to provide a more flexible variance standard for municipalities, we are constrained by the language of the statute to hold that a municipality does not have the authority to grant a variance unless the applicant can show that his or her property cannot be put to reasonable use without a variance.” On May 6, 2011, the State of Minnesota enacted the revised variance provisions. Previous Variance Criteria from State Statute The City Council was required to make the following findings to approve a variance: 1. Strict enforcement would cause undue hardship because of circumstances unique to the property under consideration. 2. The variance would be in keeping with the spirit and intent of the ordinance. “Undue hardship”, as used in granting of a variance, means the property in question cannot be put to a reasonable use if used under conditions allowed by the official controls. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to his property, not created by the landowner, and the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. Economic considerations alone shall not constitute an undue hardship if reasonable use for the property exists under the terms of the ordinance. Revised Variance Criteria from State Statute The new provisions of state law require that variances shall only be permitted when they are found to be: (1) In harmony with the general purposes and intent of the official control; (2) Consistent with the comprehensive plan; (3) When there are practical difficulties in complying with the official control. “Practical difficulties” means that the property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner not permitted by an official control. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property not created by the landowner and the variance, if granted, will not alter the essential character of the locality. DISCUSSION The Primary Changes The differences between the former variance guidelines and the revised language are: 1. The new statute now states that variances must be consistent with the comprehensive plan. This was not mentioned in the previous language. Packet Page Number 107 of 259 3 2. Cities must now determine that the property owner is encountering “practical difficulties” because of ordinance provisions that regulate the use of his or her property. Previously, the terminology was that, to grant a variance the city must determine that strict enforcement of the ordinance would cause the property owner “undue hardship” because of circumstances unique to the property. Practical difficulties exist when: a. A property owner proposes to use their property in a reasonable manner not permitted by the ordinance; b. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the property and not created by the landowner, and; c. The variance, if granted, would not alter the essential character of the locality. 3. The previous language stated that the city may grant a variance if the use was reasonable. The new language states that a variance may be granted if a property cannot be put to a reasonable use without a variance. There may not seem to be a great distinction between the former and the revised variance provisions, but the city council should amend all references to variances in our ordinances to coincide with the amended wording in the state statute. SUMMARY Staff recommends the following changes:  Deleting the reference to the statutory number and simply require compliance with “state statute.” This is to avoid inaccuracy in case the state changes their numbering.  Deleting the specifics about variance findings and simply require compliance with the state law.  Deleting the reference to appeals of the city council’s decision to district court. This ordinance should be specific to the city’s process and not to a possible district court process.  The existing ordinance was incorrect in allowing the city council’s decision to be within 90 days after the public hearing. State law requires that the city council decide on land use matters within 60 days from the acceptance of a complete application by the planning staff.

Variances Such grants shall not allow provide for a use which is not permitted under the zoning classification in which the property is located.
