The current membership is as follows: Board Member Membership Began Term Expires Ananth Shankar 8/8/94 4/30/13 Matt Ledvina 3/10/97 4/30/14 Matt Wise 2/12/07 4/30/13 Jason Lamers 5/26/09 4/30/12 Jawaid Ahmed 7/25/11 4/30/15 Jason Lamers is the only member due for reappointment in 2012. In 2011, the city council appointed Mr. Ahmed to replace outgoing member Michael Mireau. DISCUSSION 2011 Actions/Activities In 2011, the CDRB reviewed 25 items, an increase from the past few years. Almost half of the projects reviewed in 2011 were redevelopment related. The CDRB saw an uptick in projects reviewed as the economy is slowly recovering. In 2012, the CDRB expects to see increases in its number of projects reviewed. The CDRB continued its review of the city’s developing green building program and the living streets program. The CDRB appointed Mr. Lamers to work with the living streets task force. The CDRB reviewed mainly commercial projects – most notably at the Maplewood Mall and 3M Center. Two housing projects were reviewed – Cottagewood and Dearborn Meadow East – but these were two previously approved projects seeking design revision approval. The CDRB also worked on several key commercial and institutional projects in the city. The CDRB has consistently demonstrated keen interest and skill in their reviews of these development projects to ensure they are of the quality of design and materials that complement the surrounding areas and improves a site’s aesthetics. The reason for the rise in redevelopment and remodel is that the city has seen the amount of vacant land available for new developments diminish. In addition, several other projects that occurred in 2011 were smaller in nature allowing city staff to process many of the city’s remodels and additions as 15-day reviews, as allowed by code, rather than the more formal review by the CDRB. Because of the developed nature of the city, many of the new commercial and residential developments reviewed by the CDRB are either redevelopment of existing buildings or in-fill development. The CDRB will continue to be a vital advisory board to the city council in the future, particularly with more redevelopment and in-fill development projects on the horizon. Packet Page Number 35 of 233 2012 Activities In addition to its design review duties, the CDRB lists these potential activities for 2012: 1. Continue having in-service training sessions for the CDRB. 2. Continue developing policy guidelines for vegetation use along public rights-of-way. 3. Focus on educating the CDRB on sustainable building practices. 4. Living Streets 5. Update on Bartlemy Meyer Street Project CONCLUSION In 2012, the CDRB will continue its dedication to the quality design of buildings and developments, ensuring a high quality of life for the citizens of Maplewood.

This CUP is for a 15-unit town house PUD (planned unit development). Refer to the maps, plans and the city council minutes attached to this report. BACKGROUND On August 28, 2006, the city council made several approvals for this development. They included a revision to the planned unit development, a preliminary plat and a resolution ordering the public improvements. These approvals were subject to several conditions. (Please see the attached city council minutes) On September 19, 2006, the community design review board approved the design plans for Cottagewood (subject to several conditions of approval). On March 12, 2007, the city council approved the final plat for Cottagewood. On September 24, 2007, the city council approved the PUD review. On April 26, 2011, the community design review board approved the revised design plans for Cottagewood (subject to several conditions of approval). DISCUSSION In 2006 and 2007 the city council gave several approvals for the Cottagwood Town House development. Since those approvals the original developer walked away from the project which had sat dormant for several years. In 2011, Tom Wiener of Cardinal Homebuilders took over the project and received community design review board approval for building plans to move forward with this development. The previous contractor has completed the site grading, retaining walls, utilities and the base course for the private driveway. However, there was still some landscaping, curbing, paving and other site work the current developer has assumed responsibility for. Staff has been working with the developer to ensure all council conditions are met while he proceeds with this development. Currently, the city has issued three building permits for new houses within this development. Agenda Item G4 Packet Page Number 39 of 233 2 RECOMMENDATION Review the conditional use permit (CUP) for the Cottagewood PUD again in one year or sooner if the owner proposes a major change to the site.

On June 14, 1999, the city council approved a conditional use permit (CUP) to the Maplewood Area Historical Society (MAHS) to operate the farm on the site as a historical, educational, and interpretive center. Since that time MAHS has leased the land from the city for this purpose. In order to create a sustainable cash flow for farm expenses and other society projects, the MAHS requested an amendment to their CUP in order to sublease the Bruentrup Heritage Farm (BHF) site for large non-historical events, such as weddings. On July 27, 2009, the city council approved the amendment on the condition that MAHS limit the number of people to 290 and the number of events to six per year with a maximum of 290 people per event. BACKGROUND February 8, 1999, the city council approved the relocation of the Bruentrup farm buildings to the Prairie Farm Preserve. June 14, 1999, the city council approved a CUP for a “public facility” to be located within the Prairie Farm Preserve and a parking waiver for the reduction in the required number of parking spaces for such a use. December 13, 1999, the city council approved a 99-year lease agreement which allows the MAHS to lease the land and buildings for interpretive and educational purposes. The lease was never formally signed by the MAHS. July 8, 2002, the city council approved a CUP revision to allow the construction of a parking lot on the west side of the site, within the city’s open space. December 1, 2008, the city council held a workshop to discuss issues associated with MAHS including the lease, proposed fund-raising events, CUP amendment, parking, insurance, etc. April 13, 2009, the city council approved a lease agreement with the Maplewood Area Historical Society. This lease allows the society the use of the Bruentrup Heritage Farm site and buildings located at 2170 County Road D. July 27, 2009, the city council approved the amendment to the CUP allowing MAHS to hold a maximum of six private events a year with a maximum of 290 people per event. Agenda Item G5 Packet Page Number 54 of 233 2 February 22, 2010, the city council reviewed the CUP and approved it for another year. The city council also approved the use of a state licensed caterer to provide alcohol for large events at the BHF. February 28, 2011, the city council reviewed the CUP and approved it for another year. DISCUSSION The CUP allows the society to host up to six large non-historical fundraising events a year on the site. Examples of events would be weddings or graduation parties. The events would be held during the months of May through October. The hours would be limited from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. The society did hold non-historical fundraising events in 2010 and staff is not aware of any issues or concerns resulting from these private events. All conditions of approval for the CUP at the BHF are being met and staff is recommending approval of the CUP with the city council reviewing it again in one year. Master Plan The BHF lease, approved in 2009, allows MAHS to use and maintain the BHF property for 99 years unless terminated sooner. The lease specifies that the use of the site should be designated in the BHF master plan and the approved CUP. The BHF master plan was last significantly updated in January 2008 and describes the purpose as an interpretive center for the history of agriculture in New Canada-Maplewood. The goals include education and interpretation; learning by participation; historical authenticity; attraction of people and organizations to the site; and community support. A condition of the most recent CUP amendment was to update the outdated material in the master plan and add language regarding the intent and purpose of the fundraising events. On February 10, 2010, the society approved amendments to the master plan. These amendments meet the minimum requirements of the CUP. In December of 2010 the MAHS adopted an Interpretive Plan that lists 11 major goals for the BHF. Robert Overby, president of the MAHS, communicated to staff that six of the 11 goals have either been started or completed at this time.

Attachment 1 Packet Page Number 59 of 233 Attachment 2Packet Page Number 60 of 233 MEMORANDUM TO: James Antonen, City Manager FROM: Michael Martin, AICP, Planner Charles Ahl, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Conditional Use Permit Review— Midwest Grounds Maintenance Company LOCATION: 1949 Atlantic Street DATE: April 17, 2012 INTRODUCTION The conditional use permits (CUP) for Midwest Grounds Maintenance Company located at 1949 Atlantic Street (Gladstone neighborhood) are due for review. The CUPs were issued to Midwest Grounds Maintenance but now a company called Homemasters Real Estate Services owns and operates from the site. The CUPs were required for exterior storage and the construction of a metal building within the business commercial zoning district. BACKGROUND February 9, 2004: The city council approved a minor subdivision to subdivide 1949 Atlantic Street into two separate lots and also approved three CUPs as follows: 1) exterior storage for Ohlson Landscaping at 1949 Atlantic Street; 2) construction of a 3,264-square-foot metal building within the business commercial zoning district at 1949 Atlantic Street for Ohlson Landscaping; and 3) exterior storage for Oehrlein Property Maintenance at the newly subdivided and vacant lot located north of 1949 Atlantic Street. Refer to the attached city council minutes (Attachment 3). August 22, 2005: The city council reviewed Ohlson Landscaping’s CUPs. The city council waived the requirement to pave Ohlson Landscaping’s parking lot for one year (August 22, 2006) pending the outcome of the Gladstone redevelopment concept plan. The city council required the owners to complete all other exterior improvements including fencing, landscaping, and grading by October 31, 2005, with review again in November 2005 to ensure this completion. November 28, 2005: The city council reviewed Ohlson Landscaping’s CUPs and requested review again to ensure completion of all required exterior improvements which were not installed by the November 2005 deadline as specified above. November 27, 2006: The city council reviewed the CUPs and requested review again in two years to ensure completion of the parking lot. September 27, 2010: The city council reviewed the CUPs and requested review again in 18 months to ensure completion of the parking lot. DISCUSSION Farid Atiyeh purchased the property at 1949 Atlantic Street in December 2005 from Erik and Stephanie Ohlson. The Ohlson’s originally applied for and received the CUPs. Mr. Atiyeh operated a similar landscaping business as Ohlson Landscaping – which the CUPs allow. The CUPs run with the property regardless of the current owner. The purchase agreement between Mr. Atiyeh and the Ohlson’s stated that Mr. Atiyeh was responsible for the paving of the parking lot. Mr. Atiyeh sought a Agenda Item G6 Packet Page Number 61 of 233 waiver for this requirement from council in 2006. The waiver request was rejected meaning the paving of the parking lot is still a requirement of the CUPs for 1949 Atlantic Street. The council required the parking lot to be paved within two years. Since 2006, Mr. Atiyeh has passed away and the property was sold to Andrew McNattin approximately 18 months ago. Prior to Mr. McNattin’s purchase staff talked with him and his mortgage company several times regarding the conditions attached to the CUPs for this site. The buyer and his mortgage company were fully aware of the paving requirement, as well as the other requirements of the CUPs for this site. With that said, council required the parking lot to be paved in 2004, well before Mr. McNattin assumed control of the property. Mr. McNattin has submitted a letter to the city detailing his reasons for why the parking lot has yet to be paved. Staff believes having this site occupied and in use is better for the neighborhood and wants to work with this property owner; however the parking lot paving requirement has been ignored for more than eight years. Mr. McNattin has requested a three year extension to have the parking lot paved. Staff feels 18 months is more reasonable and gives Mr. McNattin through the 2013 construction season to satisfy this requirement. Staff would recommend that if in October of 2013 the parking lot has yet to be paved, the city council give serious consideration to amending or revoking the CUPs for this site. For the council’s information staff estimates the cost of paving the parking lot to be approximately $13,900. Again, staff understands Mr. McNattin’s position of having recently assumed the property while also ensuring his business stays afloat. However, staff needs to ensure the parking lot is paved to satisfy the CUP conditions and to ensure erosion on the site does not affect surrounding properties. Also of note, staff did visit the property and found some areas to have piles of rubbish and debris and the property owner has been instructed to clean up his site. RECOMMENDATION Approve the conditional use permits for 1949 Atlantic Street and review again in October 2013 to ensure completion of the required parking lot pavement.

I, Andrew McNattin, have owned the property at 1949 Atlantic for approximately 18 months. In that time I have made efforts to satisfy the CUP involving paving the lot at this property but have been unsuccessful in doing so. In part the delay has stemmed from the somewhat limited time-frame available within the previous extension. While the previous extension was 18 months, and was greatly appreciated, all but 6/7 months were in winter months. The summer months following the purchase of the property were actually my first months inhabiting the property as it sat mostly vacant during the winter immediately following the sale of the property. Considering that the paving would need to take place in the summer/fall I was left with a fairly small window of time to complete the paving. As this extension draws to a close we are only beginning to enter the time of year in which the paving could even take place. Secondly the delay stems from a lack of funds available to complete this work. In purchasing this property I have had to adjust my business practices in an effort to keep up with additional operating expenses necessary to accommodate the new space along with attempting to expand and grow my business. While the increased expenses were not unexpected, it has taken longer to adjust than was initially anticipated. Money that was intended to be set aside for the paving project has been re-allocated for day to day operating expenses. As we continue to adjust our operations it becomes more realistic to set aside funds for the completion of the project, however we were unable to do so within the previous extension. My ability to obtain a loan against the building in attempt to bridge any gap between what is on hand and what is needed has also fallen short. The loan on this property is still very new and the bank which loaned the money for the building will not even consider a refinance for at least three years. Attachment 4 Packet Page Number 73 of 233 (P) 651-235-9971 (F) 651-490-3160 (e-mail) inFo@homemastersllc.com I have spoken with paving companies regarding this project and have been given a wide range of expenses associated with paving this property. While the possibility exists to have the property paved in a less expensive manner, it is not felt that this will satisfy the needs of my business nor will it satisfy the needs of most businesses that will likely find this space suitable in the future. I feel that to have this property paved “cheaply” will not be responsible and will lead to additional expenditures in the future. At this time I am requesting an additional extension for the existing CUP for 1949 Atlantic. I do not have the money available to complete the lot paving at this time. My request for an extension would be for an additional 3 years or as the Council sees fit. During the extension period I will do everything I can to ensure the funds are on hand to complete the lot paving and satisfy the existing CUP. Thank you for your consideration.

Public Works Director Steven Love, Assistant City Engineer Jon Jarosch, Civil Engineer I SUBJECT: Approval of Purchase for Geotechnical Testing Services for 2012 Mill and Overlays, City Project 11-15 DATE: April 11, 2012 INTRODUCTION It is necessary to utilize the services of an independent testing laboratory to assist city inspectors in quality control and quality assurance on the 2012 Mill and Overlays, City Project 11-15, slated for 2012 construction. Since this purchase will exceed $10,000 written quotations were obtained and council authorization to proceed is requested. DESCRIPTION Each request for proposal included the scope of services as well as project quantities and access to plans and specifications for the construction project. The companies involved in soliciting a price for services provided a similar scope of testing services essential for project quality control. The City received quotes from the following 3 geotechnical testing firms: Company Proposal Total Northern Technologies $15,845.00 Braun Intertec $24,471.00* Terra-Con, Inc $83,901.00 *Proposal includes bituminous and concrete batch plant observations, which the other proposals do not. BUDGET IMPACT City staff anticipated that geotechnical testing services for this street improvement project would most likely be in the $20,000 to $30,000 range and determined competitive quotes were needed. Geotechnical testing costs are built into the approved budget for the project, so no additional funding allocation is required. RECOMMENDATION Braun Intertec Corporation included costs in their proposal for bituminous and concrete batch plant observations in the amount of $5,780. These observations are a State Aid testing requirement of the Minnesota Department of Transportation. Based on Braun Intertec’s understanding of the project, performance on past State Aid projects, the reputation of the company and their responsive proposal for the needs of this State Aid project, staff Agenda Item G8 Packet Page Number 77 of 233 recommends the council authorize the City Engineer to enter into a contract for services with Braun Intertec Corporation for testing and quality control-services for the 2012 Mill and Overlays, City Project 11-15.

Terracon will make every reasonable effort to ensure that the requirements of MnDOT and the City of Maplewood, as it pertains to quality control and quality assurance, are met on this project. Our services will be performed on an as-requested basis with scheduling by contractor field personnel. For budget purposes, we have assumed a Terracon field technician can be on site on a will-call basis with a minimum of 24 hour notice. Terracon will not be responsible for scheduling our services and will not be responsible for tests that are not performed due to a failure to schedule our services on the project.  Earthwork Observation and Testing A Terracon representative can observe the subgrade in the concrete and asphalt placement areas to determine that the soils are suitable for support of the new concrete and asphalt item, prior to placement of materials. Observation services and compaction tests can be performed during backfill and subgrade re-placement operations for density determination at representative locations. A Terracon representative can observe proofrolling of the sub-base prior to the placement of the aggregate base course in pavement areas. The graded and compacted aggregate base course in pavement areas can also be proofrolled and tested for compaction.  Foundation Bearing Soils Testing A Terracon representative can evaluate the bearing soils at concrete curb and gutter, sidewalk, ramps, and apron area using a nuclear density gauge for fill soils, or a hand auger and/or dynamic cone penetrometer for native soils. Bearing tests are typically performed at depths within two feet below design footing elevation.  Reinforcing Steel Observations A Terracon representative can observe the reinforcing steel prior to concrete placement. The reinforcing steel can be observed for placement, bar size, cleanliness, and lap lengths. The field observations for structural elements can also include anchor bolt placement, dowel bars and embedded steel.

The concrete can be tested for temperature, slump, air content, and unit weight (if specified). The concrete can then be molded into sets of four (6” x 12”) cylinders and transported to Terracon’ s laboratory after field curing, where compressive strength testing will be performed at specified intervals.  Asphalt Testing A Terracon representative can perform field density tests on the asphalt during placement after compaction operations. A representative sample of asphalt can be obtained for field temperature testing and laboratory testing of composition properties and theoretical specific gravity. If requested, asphalt cores can also be taken to verify thickness and/or density. A Terracon representative can also provide plant quality control testing and observations during the day’s production. We will require a copy of all necessary construction records during the progress of the work. Such records shall consist of, but may not be limited to: RFI’s, geotechnical report, concrete mix designs, soil density test results, shop drawings, batch tickets, etc. COORDINATION AND SCHEDULING During construction we request to be copied on changes in drawings and specifications that affect our portion of the work. We also request one copy of project specifications for reference.  Our services can be performed on an as-requested basis with scheduling required by the general contractor’s personnel. Terracon will not be responsible for scheduling our services and will not be responsible for tests that are not performed due to a failure to schedule our services on the project.  Additional testing or observation/inspections required by local municipalities but not noted on drawings or specifications are not included and will be charged at the unit rates enclosed.  Two copies of any shop drawings should be provided to Terracon prior to construction of the affected components.  Terracon should attend preconstruction and progress meetings to aid in the sharing of information and transfer of data to participants in the project.  Also, if observations made or tests performed indicate non-compliance with the contract documents or referenced specifications, we will immediately notify general contractor’s designated personnel. Items not corrected by the end of work on the day noted will be documented as deviations and communicated as such to the general contractor and client. Agenda Item G8 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 93 of 233 Proposal for Engineering and CMT Services City Project 11-14: 2012 Mill and Overlays ■ Maplewood, Minnesota April 11, 2012 ■ Terracon Proposal No. P41120099   5    REPORTING FIELD AND LABORATORY TEST RESULTS Terracon believes that the recording and delivery of test and observation results is as important as the collection of the data via field and laboratory activities. Terracon has developed an internal Construction Materials Engineering Laboratory Management System (CMELMSTM) that automates the delivery of information and is focused on four major goals. ■ Make all parties fully aware of our scope and role on the project so that none of the required materials testing services are overlooked or ignored. ■ Establish an effective process for the rapid transfer of observation and material test results. ■ Incorporate and maintain a tracking system for material performance, report distribution, and identification and clearance of non-conformance items. ■ Communicate regularly with our client on test results and findings as well as budget and cost issues in order for the project to be both technically and financially successful. Comprehensive Construction Materials Testing Plan Terracon can meet with your project team prior to the start of the project and develop a comprehensive construction materials testing plan. This plan assures that all parties are aware of the lines of communication and highlights the overall testing requirements for the project. In addition, it allows the project team to define and discuss items that are of a specific critical nature so that special attention can be paid to prevent such items from impacting the schedule. Automated System for Scheduling, Reporting, Distribution, and Budget Tracking Once the project begins, to enhance our belief in GREAT customer service, Terracon utilizes our automated CMELMS software program. Dispatching calls will be received by our Project Manager whom will relay this information to our field staff via CMELMS. Each of our field staff is equipped with laptop computers and smartphones to access CMELMS and our scheduling software from the project site or anywhere cell phone service is available. This allows us to achieve better communication, more consistency, and faster turnaround of reporting on the project. Data, observations, and other information are entered into the system and reports generated from the field. The CMELMS system notifies the project manager who reviews the report in the office. Once approved, the report is distributed to the client, often time while our field personnel are still on the project site. The program automatically tracks all reports and provides immediate availability of test results. The program also allows us to schedule our field personnel, through their smartphones, and track their availability daily. Additionally, the statistical performance of all concrete mixes being utilized on a project can also be monitored. The CMELMS software can produce electronic or paper copies of reports for distribution. Reports can be distributed via traditional mail, electronic mail, and/or Internet web pages can be established. The program will also track our project budget on a daily basis and produce real- time budget reports and invoices for services provided.

(NTI) is pleased to present this proposal for the above referenced project. We enjoyed working with you and the rest of the City’s engineering staff in 2010 and look forward to another successful project. If you have any questions regarding the proposal or would like any further information about our firm please do not hesitate to contact me at (763) 433-9175. Best regards, Steve Johnston, PE Regional Manager / Vice President Tony Francis, PE Project Engineer Agenda Item G8 Attachment 3 Packet Page Number 103 of 233 Minneapolis/St. Paul ● Fargo ● Grand Forks EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Northern Technologies, Inc. (NTI) offers the following proposal to perform quality assurance testing for the 2012 Mill and Overlays projects. Our proposal and estimated testing quantities are based on the Statement of Estimated Quantities provided by you and the MnDOT 2011 Schedule of Materials Control. Northern Technologies, Inc. is a North Dakota Corporation established by Marc D. Shannon, PE in 1996. Our Ramsey office was opened in 2001. This year we have reopened our St. Cloud office and opened a new office in Mendota Heights. Our Twin Cities offices are staffed by over 25 full-time and seasonal employees. We have an on-site laboratories in Ramsey and Mendota Heights that follow the same procedures, calibration schedules and documentation standards as our Fargo lab which is AMRL and USACE certified. We expect the Ramsey laboratory to be AMRL certified this year. Our Twin Cities’ staff and laboratory have undergone and passed MnDOT IAST audits each of the past 5 years. We have assigned a Project Manager / Engineer with over 10 years experience including 6 years managing the testing on street and utility construction projects to manage the project. He will assign and review the work of our qualified engineering technicians who work on the project. Our field personnel will work at the direction of the City. Scheduling is accomplished verbally with our project manager or through the engineering technician on site. Daily reports are prepared for each site visit and left with the City’s project representative. Laboratory tests are generally completed within 24 hours and the results are transmitted along with approved copies of the daily reports to the client and other stakeholders on a weekly basis. NTI’s personnel will complete the necessary MnDOT forms, reports, certifications, and incentive/disincentive sheets for this project, such as the weekly grading and base reports. Our proposed fees are a combination of hourly rates for field and management personnel, standard rates for field and laboratory tests and trip charges for travel to and from the site. Based on the testing schedule included in the RFP and our experience with Maplewood and other communities’ street reconstruction projects, we propose a testing budget of $15,845. Our final fee is dependent on the actual services performed, which can be affected by weather, schedule, and services requested by the City’s representative. SCOPE OF SERVICES - GENERAL The project scope includes mill and overlays on 6 streets, along with curb and gutter repairs, concrete sidewalks, new aggregate base, and new topsoil. Northern Technologies, Inc. (NTI) will provide MnDOT certified engineering technicians on a part to full time basis as project progress dictates to test for compliance with the project specifications including; compaction and/or DCP testing of aggregate base and bituminous pavements, approval of subgrade prior to the placement of street materials, perform tests (slump, air and temperature) on plastic concrete, cast and test concrete cylinders to verify required strength, check gradations of aggregate and bituminous materials, verify organic and nutrient content of topsoil borrow. NTI will provide services as directed by Maplewood’s project representative in coordination with the general contractor. Our engineering technicians will leave daily reports on-site with the City and general contractor’s representatives. The field reports and laboratory test results will be reviewed by NTI’s Project Engineer daily and copies are sent to all stakeholders on a weekly basis. If deficiencies are identified in lab or field reports NTI will verbally present them, as they are noted, to the City and general contractor for corrective action. The necessary weekly and/or monthly MnDOT forms will be submitted to the State Personnel. At the end of construction we will provide a project summary/closeout report for the City, State and Contractor’s files. Agenda Item G8 Attachment 3 Packet Page Number 104 of 233 Quality Assurance Testing 2012 Mill and Overlays Maplewood, Minnesota 3 SCOPE OF SERVICES - DETAILED NTI will provide all services at the direction, location and frequency requested by the City’s representative. Project Management Tony Francis, PE will manage this project for the City of Maplewood. He will attend the preconstruction and any progress meetings as requested, schedule and supervise the field and laboratory technicians, review field reports and test results, issue summary reports and reply to any questions from the client or contractor. Soil and Aggregate Properties NTI’s laboratory technicians will run a variety of tests to determine the properties of the various soils and aggregates that will be utilized on the project. These tests include a Sieve Analysis (ASTM C-136, C-117) to determine the soils gradation, Organic Content (ASTM D2974), and Nutrient Analysis (pH, organic content, estimated texture, and micro nutrients) In the field the field engineer will determine the bearing capacity of the subgrade or aggregate base with a Dynamic Cone Penetrometer test (MnDOT 2211). Concrete Properties NTI’s engineering technicians will test concrete materials as they are delivered to the job site to verify that the temperature, slump and air entrainment meet specification. The field engineer or engineering technician will cast three cylinders for every 50 yards of concrete that is delivered and installed on the project (minimum 2 sets of 3 cylinders per day). These cylinders are returned to the laboratory where they complete their curing and are tested for compressive strength at 7, and 28 days (ASTM C-39). Bituminous Properties NTI’s engineering technicians will perform a variety of tests on the bituminous materials and pavements. Samples of the bituminous can be obtained from the paver or from cores drilled in the completed pavement. In the laboratory these samples can tested to determine the asphalt content and the gradation of the aggregate (ASTM D-2172, C-137, C-117). The maximum density of the bituminous mixture will be determined with a Gyratory Compactor (ASTM D- 6925-09). The density of the installed pavement will be determined by cores (AASHTO T166 – MnDOT Modified). Agenda Item G8 Attachment 3 Packet Page Number 105 of 233 Quality Assurance Testing 2012 Mill and Overlays Maplewood, Minnesota 4 Fees and Contract Terms NTI proposes to perform the described scope of work for the rates listed in Table 1, which also lists our estimated time and quantities of tests. The final cost, which may be higher or lower, is dependent on a variety of factors including weather, contractor’s schedule, actual requested tests and the frequency of trips to the site. Based on our experience with previous street improvement projects and the minimum quantity of tests required by the specifications NTI proposes a fee budget of $15,845. NTI’s attached standard General Conditions shall be integrated along with this proposal into the final contract document. Staffing Because we are a small firm, Maplewood will benefit from working directly with NTI’s top-line managers. It is our personal mission to make certain that we are responsive and that the Engineers and Engineering Technicians working on the project are qualified, professional and reliable.

Agenda Item G8 Attachment 3 Packet Page Number 110 of 233 AGENDA REPORT TO: James Antonen, City Manager FROM: Michael Thompson, City Engineer / Dep. Public Works Director SUBJECT: TH 36 / English Street Interchange Improvements, City Project 09-08 a) Resolution Removing the Construction of a Noise Wall b) Resolution of Support for Transportation Economic Development Funding Application Submittal DATE: April 12, 2012 INTRODUCTION The council will consider officially adopting a resolution reflecting the removal of a noise wall on the north side of Highway 36 adjacent to the project improvements. This will officially recognize the removal of the wall and implementation of the landscaped berm. As you may recall, the Viking Drive residents did not want or vote for a noise wall, rather they preferred the construction of a landscaped berm, which is proceeding forward. In addition the council will consider supporting the submittal of a transportation economic development funding application for this project. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION A Public Hearing for the environmental assessment portion of the project was held on February 27, 2012. The environmental document covered a number of issues including the noise wall process. As part of the noise analysis two locations were identified for noise walls, one on the south side of Highway 36 , and one of the north side of Highway 36, both adjacent to residential properties. The City mailed out voting materials and also held an open-house meeting to specifically discuss the noise analysis process. The open-house was held on August 17th, 2011 at the Maplewood Community Center. The property owners adjacent to the proposed walls voted. To summarize; the residents on the south side of Highway 36 voted to have a 20’ wall installed, while the residents on the north side did not want a 20’ wall installed. There was not even one affirmative vote for a wall from the Viking Drive homeowners. Instead, an alternative was sought by the homeowners and the City worked with them on an earth berm option with landscaping. To help focus the design and details of the berm, a citizen committee was created and consisted of four homeowners. The committee met two times; December 7, 2011 and January 31, 2012. The collaboration process led to the berm and landscaping design which is attached as an exhibit. The homeowners along Viking Drive continue to express their opposition to a wall a preference for the berm. The City is moving forward accordingly. Regarding the transportation funding application; the City intends on requesting up to $2 million as part of the Transportation Economic Development Program (TED). MnDOT has committed $20 million in Trunk Highway funds; in addition DEED is seeking additional resources as part of the ongoing 2012 legislative session. Agenda Item G9 Packet Page Number 111 of 233 The TED program is a competitive grant program available to communities for highway improvement and public infrastructure projects that create jobs and support economic development. The proposed interchange improvement will greatly position the area for redevelopment and upgrades thus the City is seeking to submit to contend for the available funds. The completed grant application is available in the office of the City Engineer. BUDGET This action has no impact on the budget. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the city council approve the attached resolution Removing the Construction of a Noise Wall on the TH 36 / English Street Interchange Improvement Project, City Project 09-08. It is further recommended that the council adopt a resolution of support for submitting the Transportation Economic Development grant application for City Project 09-08. Attachments: 1.

Safari Invoice AGENDA REPORT TO: City Manager, Jim Antonen FROM: IT Director, Mychal Fowlds SUBJECT: Approval to Make Payment for Safari Yearly Support Contract DATE: April 17, 2012 Introduction Support contracts for software are a major necessity due to the fact that there are always fixes and updates and without the support contracts we’re entitled to none of these. Also, in order to speak with any of our third party vendors a support contract is required. Background The Maplewood Park and Recreation department and the Maplewood Community Center purchased Recware Safari roughly 8 years ago and the support contract is due. Budget Impact This purchase has been planned for and will be funded from the 2012 IT Fund in the amount of $11,401.44. Recommendation It is recommended that authorization be given to pay the support contract for Safari so as to keep current with updates and to keep Safari support available for staff. Action Required Submit to City Council for review and approval.

Expenses or projects over $10,000 require council’s approval before proceeding with the expense. Staff is asking for council approval of allowing for certain GL line items expenses up to the approved budgeted amount either accumulative or individually over $10,000 be approved without having to be brought to council for individual approvals. BACKGROUND In the process of planning the annual budget departments are responsible for justifying the planned expenses for their areas and any changes. These are reviewed and combined into the completed fiscal budget for approval by council. Once the budget is formally approved departments use their final budgeted amounts as a guide throughout the year to efficiently run the department and control expenses. Individual or accumulative expenses over $10,000 to the same vendor or contractor require council to proceed. DISCUSSION Building Maintenance uses many service companies, suppliers, vendors, and contractors throughout the year for projects or supplies. Many of these can or do require council approval due to the dollar amount or cumulative yearly amounts. This requires staff to either do a Consent Agenda, or Award of Bid for council approval multiple times throughout the year. Staff follows all of the required procedures of bidding or securing the best pricing for items purchased, services provided, and contractor work. To stream line the procedure and enhance the efficiency of expenditures staff has in the past combined general ledger line item expenses into one report and one approval for the entire fiscal year. This allowed for spending up to the approved budgeted amount before requiring additional council approval. Going forward and in the future staff would like to do the same for four (4) main line items in the Maplewood Community Center’s Building Maintenance Budget. These line items are as follows. General Ledger Number 2012 Budgeted Amount • 602-614-000-4130 Supplies Janitorial $44,500 • 602-614-000-4160 Supplies and Equipment $47,770 • 602-614-000-4410 Repair & Maintenance Buildings $48,500 • 602-614-000-4430 Repair & Maintenance $59,550 RECOMMENDATION Staff is requesting city council approval for spending up to the approved budgeted amounts in their respective fiscal years which will vary yearly on the amount approved in the budgeting process before requiring additional council approval for the GL line items listed above.

My documents/council items/ approval of building operations expenditures for repairs and maintenance Packet Page Number 119 of 233 G13 MEMORANDUM TO: Jim Antonen, City Manager Chuck Ahl, Assistant City Manager FROM: Larry Farr, Chief Building Engineer SUBJECT: Implementation to Replace and Upgrade the Trane Summit System at City Hall DATE: April 23, 2012 City Council Meeting INTRODUCTION The heating and cooling systems for City Hall / Police Department were installed in 1984 and 1994 respectively. The systems have been upgraded several times with the last one being in 2004 to the Trane Summit Energy Management System (EMMS). There are Variable Air Volume (VAV) units that have pneumatic (air pressure) controls for heating and cooling of the areas. The pneumatic thermostats open and close the dampers and heating valves to maintain the temperatures for their area. BACKGROUND The existing VAV systems units are from 18 – 28 years old and are starting to require more maintenance and parts replacement. The hot water heat control valves and VAV dampers are controlled by air pressure that requires frequent adjusting to operate properly. The heat valves are starting to leak in many areas that require replacing the valve and repairs. The Maplewood Community Center and Public Works facilities have Trane Summit Electronic VAV’s and electronic heating valves that require little maintenance or constant adjusting. The long range plan in 2006 was to upgrade the City Hall / Police Department systems to all electronic so all campus facilities are up to date. DISCUSSION In early 2011 staff made the decision to control the expenses of the Building Operation Budget GL# 101-115 due to the economy outlook early in the year. When the overall fiscal budget improved and there were monies available in 101-115 from early planning it was to late in the year to implement delayed projects. At the February 13, 2012 City Council meeting council approved the Carry Over of 2011 funds as designated on the Consent Agenda Item G-9. With this approval Building Operations received $45,000 for implementation of the project to Replace and Upgrade the Trane Summit System at City Hall for Air Handler Unit #2 which is discussed above. RECOMMENDATION Staff is requesting city council approval to spend the approved 2011 Carry Over funds designated for the Replace and Upgrade the Trane Summit System at City in the amount of $45,000 for Building Operation.

Staff did research on what our code currently says, and in what ways it should be revised to address additional revenue opportunities to help sustain our Parks system. BACKGROUND In Maplewood, the purpose and intent of part of Chapter 26 (zoning code) is to ensure that the citizens of the city have additional open space for parks, playgrounds, and recreation facilities, in addition to those spaces owned by the public. As authorized in chapter 26, a developer may provide a cash payment in lieu of dedication of land. This is commonly referred to as a Park Availability Charge (PAC) and in Maplewood, it is also referred to as a Park Dedication Fee. The way the code reads currently, PAC is only authorized in circumstances of new development. Chapter 26-126 thru 131 speak to the issue of development refer to the development of undeveloped land, and do not speak to redevelopment. Staff researched what other metro communities were doing with Park Dedication Fees to find out where we had opportunity to make changes to our code to capture additional revenue. What we found was that many communities in the metro specifically addressed redevelopment. This is an area that Staff is proposing changes to address redevelopment, while crediting the developer for any previously paid dedication. DISCUSSION In the early 1980’s when the Code on PAC was adopted, there was still enough development going on in the community to only address new development. Currently, most development in the city is redevelopment, whether residential or commercial. Staff is recommending the modification of the park dedication ordinance to simply discuss these charges as they relate to all development, not just new development. Minnesota law specifically authorizes cities to require the dedication of land or cash in lieu for park s, playgrounds, trails or open spaces by a developer wishing to develop land in the city. Minnesota statute 462.358 subdivision 2b specifically authorizes the Agenda Item H1 Packet Page Number 121 of 233 dedication of land and/or cash in lieu of. That statute also authorizes dedication or payment in redevelopment scenarios. The change proposed by staff would essentially apply the same 9% value that it currently does to new development on all development. In consideration of any park dedication fee or value of dedicated land previously paid, the ordinance provides a full credit for that amount against any new fee derived from redevelopment. For example, property X currently has one house on it and the developer had previously paid a PAC fee. In subdividing the property, the numbers of lots were increased to five. PAC would be available on the net increase of lots. Other Highlights from the Revision: - In cases of redevelopment, credit towards the park dedication due for such redevelopment shall be given for the actual amount of previous park dedication satisfied for the lots proposed. - If PAC charges were not previously paid on the purchased property, the developer would be responsible for the full 9% of the market value of the property. - In the event that park dedication was previously satisfied for a larger land area than the lot or lots currently proposed for development, the previously satisfied park dedication amount shall be prorated on a per square foot basis to the lot or lots currently proposed for development. - While credits may fully satisfy Park Dedication due credits shall not result in refunds of park dedication previously paid Not all redevelopment will be eligible, there still needs to be an added use or burden on our parks system. Most of the time this will be from a density/use change, subdivision, or re-platting. Each development would be looked at individually to determine whether additional PAC is warranted. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the first reading of the change to Chapter 26 section 26- 126 thru 130 of the City Code. 1. Ordinance Amendment to Section 26 – 126 thru 130 Agenda Item H1 Packet Page Number 122 of 233 Attachment 1 ORDINANCE NO. ___ AN ORDINANCE AMENDMENT CONCERNING THE CITY PARK DEDICATION BY DEVELOPERS The Maplewood City Council approves the following revision to the Maplewood Code of Ordinances.

The purposes and intent of this division are to ensure the citizens of the city that additional open space for parks, playgrounds and recreation facilities will be the responsibility of every sort of new new development in the city, not just residential development, so that the city’s vast amount of privately owned open spaces with potential for development are partially available for orderly park, recreation, and open space development ; to ensure that, in fact, such facilities will be provided; and to preserve, enhance and improve the qualities of the physical environment of the city for commercial and industrial uses or a combination thereof, regardless of whether such developments or subdivisions are within the context of chapter 34, which pertains to subdivisions. Sec, 26-127 Required dedications generally. The developer of any tract of land in the city which is to be developed or redeveloped for commercial, residential, governmental, institutional, or industrial or like uses shall dedicate to the public, for public use as parks, playgrounds or public open space, such portion of his/her development tract equal to 9 percent, with such portion to be reviewed annually in December. The percentage of the development tract to be so dedicated may be amended by resolution of the council. Sec. 26-128 Delineation of dedicated area on preliminary plat or site plan. The actual area to be dedicated for public use as parks, playgrounds or public space pursuant to this division shall be delineated on the preliminary plat or site plan by the developer. Such plat or site plan shall be referred to the park and recreation commission for its scrutiny and report to the city council of its findings, conclusions, and recommendations, with this referral being in addition to any other referral to other commissions or committees. Sec. 26-129 Revision of dedication If the city council, after receiving the report from the park and recreation commission and the planning commission, shall determine that such area delineated by the developer pursuant to section 26-128 is unsuitable for such purposes, it may require the subdivider or developer to relocate or rearrange such area or to make such changes or revisions of the proposed dedication as it deems necessary; reasonable; and in the best interests of health, safety, general welfare and convenience of the city. Agenda Item H1 Packet Page Number 123 of 233 Sec. 26-130 Cash in lieu of dedication. (a) The term “undeveloped land value” as used in this section, shall be the market value of the subject land at the time of the application, and to be determined by the city council in its reasonable discretion. As a basis for its decision, the council may request a appraisal at the expense of the subdivider or developer for the purposes of determining such value. Such additional appraisal shall be obtained, if the council deems advisable, from an appraiser selected by the council. Thereafter, the council, with the aid of both appraisals, shall determine the “undeveloped land value”. (b) In lieu of the dedication of land required for the purposes enumerated in the division, the city council may require the subdivider or developer to pay the city, as an equivalent contribution, an amount in cash equal to the product of the percentage of land required to be dedicated, multiplied be the undeveloped land value of the tract to be subdivided or, developed or redeveloped. Such cash payments shall be made to the city prior to the issuance of a building permit, for commercial, industrial uses or accommodation thereof. (c) All cash contributions received by the city are pursuant to this division shall be placed in a special fund and used only for the acquisition of land for parks, playgrounds, public space or the development of existing parks and playground sites, public open spaces and debt retirement in connection with land previously acquired for such public purposes. (d) In cases of redevelopment, credit towards the park dedication due for such redevelopment shall be given for the actual amount of previous park dedication satisfied for the lots proposed. (e) In the event that park dedication was previously satisfied for a larger land area than the lot or lots currently proposed for development, the previously satisfied park dedication amount shall be prorated on a per square foot basis to the lot or lots currently proposed for development. (f) While credits may fully satisfy park dedication due, credits shall not result in refunds of park dedication previously paid.

Antonen, City Manager FROM: Michael Martin, AICP, Planner Charles Ahl, Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Conditional Use Permit Request for Used Car Sales – Kline Auto World LOCATION: 2610 Maplewood Drive DATE: April 17, 2012 INTRODUCTION Rick Kline, representing Kline Auto World, is requesting approval of a conditional use permit (CUP) to sell used cars at the former Mitsubishi dealership building located at 2610 Maplewood Drive. The city ordinance requires a CUP to sell only used cars (the sale of new and used cars is permitted, however). BACKGROUND Past Action On August 27, 1984, the city council approved the use and plans for a new car dealership. On September 27, 1993, the city council approved a CUP to expand an automobile maintenance garage within 350 feet of a residential lot line. City Zoning Code Requirements Section 44-512(5) requires a CUP for the sale and leasing of “used” motor vehicles. Such used auto sales must also be at least 350 feet away from property that the city is planning for residential use. DISCUSSION Conditional Use Permit The proposed used car sales operation would meet the requirements for CUP approval outlined in the city ordinance. This proposal would utilize the existing facility and would require no expansion or alteration of the building or site. After the site was developed for an auto dealership in 1984, the ordinance was amended to require a 350 foot separation from property zoned for residential. There is a home 223 feet to the east from this site. The existing building is grandfathered in since it was built under another set of guidelines. Agenda Item J1 Packet Page Number 179 of 233 2 COMMITTEE ACTION Planning Commission On March 20, 2012, the planning commission held a public hearing and recommended approval of the proposed CUP revision for used car sales. RECOMMENDATION Adopt the resolution approving a conditional use permit to allow the sale of used cars at 2610 Maplewood Drive. Approval is based on the findings required by ordinance and subject to the following conditions: 1. The city council shall review this permit in one year. 2. All activity shall be confined to the site. There shall be no loading or unloading of vehicles on the street rights-of-way. 3. The applicant shall comply with and observe the city’s noise ordinance as it relates to PA systems or any other business activity. 4. Comply with all city ordinance requirements for signage and parking.

Packet Page Number 189 of 233 AGENDA REPORT TO: James Antonen, City Manager FROM: Michael Thompson, City Engineer/ Dep. Public Works Director Steven Love, Assistant City Engineer SUBJECT: Approval of Initial Findings, July 16th Storm Clean-up and Investigation, City Project 11-19 DATE: April 13, 2012 INTRODUCTION The following agenda report provides the council with an update on the status of City Project 11-19, July 16th Storm Clean-up and Investigation. BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION On Friday evening through Saturday morning (July 15-16, 2011) the city received 4.54 inches of rain, with a majority of that total received over a 3 hour span on Saturday morning. A 100-year storm event, which has only a 1% chance of occurring in any given year, equates to 3.8 inches of rain over a 3 hour span. So clearly the 100-year storm event was eclipsed causing many problems throughout the city. The high intensity storm event taxed the overall storm sewer networks especially the ponds and lakes which could not drain fast enough to avoid flooding and backups in the storm pipe networks. Following the storm event 20 areas were identified that reported localized flooding issues. Please refer to the attached City Map showing the approximate general location of these areas. The City Council authorized the establishment of a budget of $100,000 for the investigation and remediation efforts of the localized flooding issues resulting from the July 16, 2011 storm event. City staff and S.E.H., the City’s consultant, have been meeting with property owners, performing preliminary site reviews, building drainage models, researching area history, and completing design alternatives. Several of the identified areas are being reviewed together as they are part of an overall larger drainage system. S.E.H. and city staff have completed the initial site investigation. Attached to the agenda reports is S.E.H.’s memorandum for the 2011 Floods – Initial Assessments and Investigations dated April 16, 2012. This memorandum outlines for each study area a description of the problems reported from the July 19, 2011 storm event, a summary of the review and analysis efforts conducted to date, a description of implementation actions and activities conducted to date, recommendations for implementation actions or additional analysis needs, and estimated cost for each recommended action. Agenda Item J2 Packet Page Number 190 of 233 COMPLETED REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES Since the July 16, 2011 storm event the following is a list of areas and the remediation efforts that have been completed to date: Area #5a - Wakefield Lake Outlet: Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District has included the outlet structure improvement as part of a District lead improvement project completed in 2012. Area #9 - TH 36 at Vento Trail: Detailed modeling analysis of the existing system has been completed and preliminary plans for addressing flooding is underway as part of English Street/TH 36 Interchange, City Project # 09-08. Area #10 - 1398 Myrtle Street: The outlet structure consists of a wooden weir skimmer structure and a reduced pipe on the wetland outlet. The outlet was found to be free of significant debris. Public works staff shall continue regular inspection of the outlet structure during annual spring snowmelt to confirm free flowing conditions. If additional review of the pond overflow conditions along Arlington Avenue during a winter or spring snowmelt condition is required to assess the severity of the problem the estimated cost of the review process is $500.00. Area #11 - 1866 & 1874 East Shore Drive: City crews replaced the existing 3” PVC outlet with a 12” RCP outlet. This improvement will significantly reduce the depth and duration of high water levels in the backyards of the residents of 1866 and 1874 East Shore Drive. Area #14 - County Road D Court: Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District has replaced the storm sewer culvert and the section of road that washed out during the storm event. Area #16 - Truck Utilities: Detailed modeling analysis of the existing system has been completed and preliminary plans for addressing flooding are underway as part of English Street/TH 36 Interchange, City Project # 09-08. Area #17a – 2260 VanDyke Street: City crews replaced the existing catch basin with a beehive inlet grate to reduce the potential for plugging of the inlet during rainfall events. City crews will continue regular maintenance of the existing catch basins located on VanDyke Street. RECOMMENDED 2012 REMEDIATION ACTIVITIES The following is a list of current activities and recommended 2012 remediation projects, the area name, proposed remediation activity, and an estimated cost: Area #5b - Wakefield Lake I&I: The sanitary sewer system will be televised and/or smoke tested in the areas adjacent to the three properties along Hazelwood and Prosperity that experienced backup in the July 2011 storms. This condition assessment work will identify any blockages or major inflow and infiltration into the system. Following this initial investigation work and identification of the cause(s) of the backups, potential improvements will be evaluated and a plan and schedule will be developed. The estimated cost of the initial investigation work is $10,000 to televise and smoke test the systems. Costs associated with the review of the sanitary sewer backup will be covered as part of the ongoing I&I program. Agenda Item J2 Packet Page Number 191 of 233 Area #7.1 - Knucklehead – Lark Avenue: This area is currently under review. Area #8 – Edgerton Pond and Area #12 – Roselawn Park Pond: City staff has been coordinating with Ramsey County, Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District (RWMWD), Capital Regions Watershed District (CRWD), and the City of St. Paul on a project that will provide a permanent solution to the flooding issues to the Edgerton Pond area. This review also looks at the effects that the Roselawn Park Pond has on the overall drainage area system. Ramsey County is currently planning a road maintenance project this summer for Edgerton Street. The City of Maplewood is working with Ramsey County to coordinate the installation of a lift station and piping system along Edgerton Street south to Larpenteur Avenue. By coordinating the construction activities with Ramsey County there will be a significant savings to the cost of construction by reducing or eliminating items such as restoration. The estimated cost associated with the lift station and piping system work is $100,000.00. Area #15 - 2496 Flandrau Street: Public works staff recommends surveying the existing ponding area and low opening of home at 2496 Flandrau Street. City forces will install an outlet structure that will connect to the existing storm sewer system to the southeast. This will provide the necessary emergency outlet for the ponding area adjacent to 2496 Flandrau Street. Staff is currently working with the adjacent property owners on this solution. The estimated cost of the survey work by city staff is $1,000.00 and $5,000.00 for the construction of the outlet structure. The total cost of the proposed remediation work is estimated at $6,000.00. Area #18 - 2010 Co. Road B East: Survey the property of 2010 County Road B East and the ditch segment along County Road B East to define options for an emergency overflow from the residential area. Design emergency overflow path at 2010 County Road B East. The estimated cost of the survey work by city staff is $2,000.00 and $10,000.00 for the design of the emergency overflow path. The total cost of the proposed remediation work is estimated at $52,000.00. The funding should be reviewed after the completion of the design to verify that construction in 2012 is feasible. Staff is recommending further coordination with Ramsey County for review of possible solutions along County Road B East. Area #19 - 2324 Holloway Avenue: Work with public works crews to clear and grade City of Maplewood property adjacent to the back property line of 2324 Holloway Avenue to remove a subtle berm that has developed over time. This grading will provide free drainage from the backyard to the storm water pond located on the City of Maplewood property. The estimated cost for public works crews to complete clearing, grading, and restoration is $3,000.00. Area #20 - 2482 Adele Street: Staff is exploring an opportunity to directionally drill an outlet pipe from the backyard into the ponding areas to the east. The feasibility of this approach will depend on the elevation of the ponding areas to the east relative to the low point in the backyard at 2482 Adele. If adequate grade is available, the estimated cost of drilling an outlet pipe through the existing berm is $35,000 to $45,000 for survey, design and construction. The initial survey work is estimated at $1,500- $2,000. Timing of this project is dependent on project funding. Agenda Item J2 Packet Page Number 192 of 233 RECOMMENDED FUTURE PROJECTS AND CIP REMEDIATION PROJECTS Area #1 - City Hall Pond: Review elevation of MCC low opening relative to the emergency overflow elevation (EOF) from Wicklander pond. Evaluate EOF options for the MCC parking lot. The estimated cost for the review work is $2,000.00. Area 17b - 2260 Van Dyke Street: Continued regular maintenance of the catch basins at the low point to remove debris/leaves is recommended. At the time Van Dyke Street is reconstructed it is recommended to review the storm sewer system’s capacity and condition and at the low point located at 2260 Van Dyke Street. Cost associated with any improvements of the storm system as part of the reconstruction of Van Dyke Street will be covered as part of the associated CIP project. Area #2 - Ivy Pond System and Area #3 - Glendon Pond and Area 4d - Lakewood Drive/McKnight Road: These three areas are group together as part of an overall drainage area and recommended to be studied as part of a future Capital Improvement Project (CIP). This CIP project would look into potential diversion of flows from Glendon Pond, additional capacity near the Ivy Pond system, and impacts to drainage at the crossing on Lakewood Drive. The estimated cost for the feasibility study is $20,000.00. The total cost of the proposed remediation work will be determined as part of the feasibility study. Area #4b -Gas Station – McKnight Road and Area #4c - McKnight CBs and Area #6 - Larpenteur Avenue at Sterling Street: These areas are grouped together as part of an overall drainage area and recommended to be studied as part of a future Capital Improvement Project (CIP). This CIP project would identify improvements that will aid in protecting the area during extreme rainfall events. The estimated cost for the feasibility study is $15,000.00. The total cost of the proposed remediation work will be determined as part of the feasibility study. Area #12 - 500 Ripley: Review cost-benefit of lift station near 500 Ripley. The estimated costs associated with the lift station review are $2,000.00. FINANCIAL IMPACTS The impacts of the flooding from this event will be to place an additional burden on the Environmental Utility Fund [EUF]. The current Capital Improvement Plan calls for an annual average increase in the EUF rates of 10% each year for the next five years. Sustaining those increases will result in a positive cash balance in the fund as well as eliminating any requirements for bonding of the EUF program. This flood event will add some substantial costs to the program over the next 3-5 years that will likely reduce the projected cash balance, but will likely not require increases to the EUF fee beyond the 10% annual increase. We are estimating that adding the projects from this investigation into the EUF program will require $300,000 to $500,000 in additional improvements over the next 3-5 years. It is the staff recommendation that this program and fee charged to property is exactly the reason that this fund and the subsequent charge was created. It is projected that the annual increase will place the City fee within the upper 25% of fees charged in the metro area, but will not put Maplewood’s EUF fee in the top 10% of charges. Given that Maplewood is one of 30 cities in the state of Minnesota that are required to implement storm water requirements as part of our NPDES permit, having our fee at this level seems reasonable. Agenda Item J2 Packet Page Number 193 of 233 SUMMARY City staff and S.E.H. have completed the majority of the site visits. SEH’s initial investigation memo, dated April 16, 2012, is attached to this report. For each of the indentified areas this memo includes findings, conclusions, remediation recommendations, and recommendations for areas in need of further analyses. Through the work of our City forces, RWMWD projects, and planned CIP projects seven of the flood areas have or will be receiving remediation work. Currently there are 8 areas actively being worked on and 9 areas are recommended as future projects. It is recommended that the City Council adopt this report and authorize the City Engineer to prepare work plans for the next 3-5 years to begin implementing the recommended projects.

A majority of that total received over an approximate 3 hour time span during the early morning hours on Saturday, July 16th. As reported in the July 19, 2011, Agenda Report to Council for the July 25, 2011, Council Meeting, a 100-year storm event equates to 3.8 inches of rain over a 3 hour span. A 100-year event is defined as an event that has a 1% chance of being exceeded in any given year. Based on the reported depth and duration of rainfall for the July 2011 event, some areas of the City experienced a storm larger than the “100-year storm event.” This extreme event caused many problems throughout the City as well as throughout much of the northern metropolitan area. This high-intensity storm event taxed the overall storm sewer networks including the storm water ponds, wetland areas and lakes which could not drain fast enough to avoid flooding and backups in some localized areas. The storm sewer system throughout much of the City is designed to handle a 10-year storm event and the ponds and other detention areas are designed to handle a 100-year event. Following the storm event, Public Works Maintenance staff was involved with immediate response activities such as visiting homes and verifying the condition of vital storm sewer outfalls and reviewing localized flooding areas to determine an appropriate response. The immediate response of maintenance staff was to provide temporary pumping of Edgerton Pond, 500 Ripley, Schneider’s Pond near 443 Roselawn Ave, 1874 & 1866 East Shore Drive, and 2496 Flandrau Street. The City of Vadnais Heights shared one of their unused pumps with Maplewood. Engineering department staff met with a number of affected businesses and residents within the first week after the storm to gather relevant site specific information and to help in identifying potential future improvements. A small number of locations that experienced flooding during this event have also required pumping in the past, most notable Edgerton Pond. These specific areas were designated higher priority areas in identifying improvements along with the location of the two homes on Lark Avenue that flooded as a result of high water levels of Knuckle Head Lake. According to the one owner on Lark Avenue this area also flooded during the storms of 1987. With an apparent increase in the frequency of the “100-year storm,” the City has determined that additional measures are likely needed in selected areas. Over the past few years, the City has made Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 196 of 233 2011 Floods - Initial Assessments and Investigations April 16, 2012 Page 2 improvements to the local drainage system on private property by acquiring easements and improving overflow elevations and installing new overflow piping outlets. Identifying minor improvements such as these in addition to more substantial improvements are expected as part of this preliminary review. INITIAL REVIEWS In response to the reported areas of high water or flooding, the City initiated a review of 17 specific areas that were listed in the July 19, 2011, Agenda Report. The City requested that SEH assist in reviewing the problem areas and assessing potential solutions for each area. Since that original Agenda Report, the list of areas to review has expanded to a total of 20. An updated location map of these areas is attached as Exhibit A. For the purposes of this initial review process, several of the individual areas have been combined to better group the problem areas where the drainage system is connected and/or where the overall area was evaluated. Table 1 provides a summary of the recommendations and preliminary cost estimates for the specific areas and groupings evaluated as part of this preliminary work. Additional detail on the work completed to date for each area and grouping is provided in Exhibit B. Table 1.

Several other projects are currently in the design process and will be completed as part of projects that are already underway, including Areas 9 and 16, as part of the TH 36-English Improvements. Additional projects that can be completed easily by Public Works crews, such as Areas 15 and 19 are expected to be completed in 2012. At least four of the areas can be completed as part of future street reconstruction work (Area 17) or can be planned for work in 2012 (such as Areas 18 and 20). These improvements are small to medium sized improvements in the $10,000-$50,000 range each. Public Works crews will be completing several of these improvements. Cost estimates for others assume work will be completed by a private contractor following some initial surveying to confirm critical elevations in the areas. However, Public Works crews may be able to complete some of these additional improvements at costs lower than estimated. The remaining areas will need some additional analysis to identify feasible and cost-effective improvement options. Several of the areas have been combined into groups based on their location in the drainage system and their hydrologic connection to each other. Significant work has already been completed in a few of the areas such as Edgerton Pond and the 500 Ripley area, and the next step will be to revisit the previous improvement options in more detail to determine the relative cost-benefit of each option. Edgerton Pond improvements may be able to be combined or coordinated with a planned Ramsey County reconstruction project on Edgerton Street to make the improvements more cost effective. Only one of these remaining areas experienced flooding of a building or significant structure (Area 4b) during the July 2011 storms, and that area should be a higher priority as the improvement options are reviewed in more detail. Most of the remaining areas have been managed effectively in the past through the use of temporary pumping systems. While nuisance flooding conditions have occurred in these areas, we are not aware that of any reported damage to buildings or property. Therefore, the focus of the additional analysis for these areas should be to determine if the temporary pump system approach is likely to be a cost effective option in the future.

Area numbers correspond to the Area IDs shown in Exhibit A. Note that some of the areas have been combined where they are close in proximity and/or are part of the same storm sewer or overland flow system. Each of the summaries is formatted in the following order: A. A description of the problem area(s) and area identification number(s) as presented in the July 19, 2011 Agenda Report; B. A summary of our review and analysis efforts conducted to date; C. A description of implementation actions and activities conducted to date; D. Recommendations for implementation actions or additional analysis; E. An estimated cost for each recommended action. AREA #1 - City Hall Pond (Wicklander Pond) AREA #17 –2260 Van Dyke Vacant home on A – Description of Problem Area(s) #1. City Hall Pond – Overflowed into the Maplewood Community Center (MCC) parking lot and receded 3 to 4 hours later. No description for the Van Dyke areas was provided in the initial Agenda Report. #17. Van Dyke – Not included in original Agenda Report. The vacant home at 2260 Van Dyke experienced some flooding in the yard and along the foundation. Catch basin(s) in the street were plugged with debris. The water level reportedly dropped quickly after debris was removed. B – Summary of Review and Analysis Based on our initial review of the pond at City Hall (Wicklander Pond), the overflow into the driveway at MCC did not impact any buildings on the City Hall Campus. While no hydrologic or hydraulic modeling was completed to analyze the response of the pond system, it is reasonable to assume that the system responded generally as expect. City crews noted that a large volume of runoff from the east of the Public Works yard also enters the pond and the area resulted in significant flows during the July 2011 event which created some temporary flooding conditions with the Public Works yard. We have review the general routing of the storm sewer system in Van Dyke and it is connected to Wicklander Pond. Record drawings show a normal water level (NWL) of 898 and a 100-year High Water Level (HWL) in Wicklander Pond at about elevation 904. The storm sewer invert at 2260 Van Dyke is at about elevation 916 and the road surface elevation is at about elevation 920. Therefore, we believe the downstream conditions in Wicklander Pond are not likely to have caused or significantly contributed to issues in Van Dyke. Instead, the problem was likely caused by a combination of catch basin inlet capacity and the partially plugged storm sewer inlets found by Public Works crews. Short-term, City crews can install a beehive inlet grate to reduce the potential for plugging of the inlet during rainfall events. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 203 of 233 B-2 Based on field observations and record plans the MCC low opening is below the elevation of the emergency overflow in the parking lot/driveway west of the pond and the elevation of White Bear Avenue. Record drawings of the storm sewer show that the 54-inch outlet pipe from Wicklander Pond has a positive slope into the pond and the functional outlet elevation is in the manhole structure just east of White Bear Avenue. The outlet elevation is at 898.08 and it outlets to the west into a 42-inch pipe then south along the west side of White Bear Avenue. Wicklander Pond area is mapped as a Zone A Flood Hazard area, with no elevation assigned to the flood hazard boundary. C – Implementation Actions to Date City staff has installed a beehive inlet grate at the low point along Van Dyke street to reduce the potential for inlet plugging. D - Recommended Actions 1. Continue routine maintenance of the Van Dyke catch basins in the low point to remove debris/leaves that could plug or partially plug the inlets. 2. Increase the inlet capacity of the Van Dyke catch basins in the low point during future street reconstruction project. At the time of street reconstruction design, review the storm system capacity and condition overall. 3. Review elevations of MCC low opening relative to the emergency overflow elevation (EOF) from Wicklander Pond. Longer term consider creating a hydraulic model to evaluate the pond outlet network that ultimately discharges to Wakefield Lake to determine if increase outlet capacity from Wicklander Pond would reduce the flooding risk at MCC and if there would be any significant downstream impacts. Evaluate options for creating a lower EOF at the time the MCC parking lot needs maintenance. Review the upstream contributing areas as part of this assessment. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Install inlet grate beehive. $185 2. Construct Van Dyke inlet capacity improvements $15,000 (with future street recon) 3. MCC parking lot improvement assessment $2,000 AREA #2 – Ivy Pond AREA #3 – Glendon Pond AREA #4d – Lakewood/McKnight Road A – Description of Problem Area(s) #2. Ivy Pond System – The area south of Ivy Avenue between Century Avenue and Ferndale Street experienced a large amount of issues as a number of yards were flooded when the Mn/DOT ditch from Century Avenue overflowed into the area and then down into the neighborhood. Additionally, pavement patching and repair work to Farrell Street was damaged and washed away. #3. Glendon Pond – The low areas around Glendon Pond were underwater and waters encroached upon yard areas. This basin drains north across Maryland Avenue and the discharge rate is controlled by the Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 204 of 233 B-3 system on the north side of Maryland Avenue. During large events the Glendon Pond area is slow to recede as it must allow the water on the north side of Maryland Avenue to move through the system first. #4. McKnight Road – Experienced areas of flooding - 1 of the 4 major areas observed: d. McKnight, south of Maryland, where it turns into Lakewood Boulevard (near Beaver Lake), the entire roadway flooded and at the time of observation had receded to allow one lane to be passable. B – Summary of Review and Analysis We have completed and initial review of the drainage system and record drawings of the storm sewer system. All three of these issue areas are part of the same overall drainage network that starts along TH 120/Century Avenue to the east and discharges to Beaver Lake just west of Lakewood Drive. Much of the wetland area north of Maryland is mapped as a Zone A Flood Hazard Area and Glendon Pond is also a mapped Zone A. Zone A area designated areas without an assigned 1% chance flood elevation. Based on the RWMWD Plan, the flood elevation is approximately 965.4 for the area north of Maryland and the area including Glendon Pond has a flood elevation of approximately 866.7. A hydrologic model of the Glendon Pond system was created by the Ramsey-Washington-Metro Watershed District (RWMWD) that shows the 100-year high water level for Glendon Pond at elevation 966.7 (for a 100-year, 1-hour storm event). The pond area was expanded slightly as part of the Ferndale- Geranium Street reconstruction project in 2007-2008 by adding a pre-treatment filtration cell at the west end of the basin. The street reconstruction project and the added filtration cell did not result in a change in the reported high water level on Glendon Pond. We have completed an initial site area visit and have contacted the RWMWD to inquire about the availability of modeling and supporting information. RWMWD has an “in-house” model of some portions of the system. The in-house model is not a widely available model such as HydroCAD or XP- SWMM, and therefore a more detailed review of the model is needed to evaluate the potential for improvements in the system. Depending on the level of detail available in the RWMWD model for the area of interest, the RWMWD may be able to run a few improvement scenarios very efficiently. Another approach, if less than the necessary detail is available in their model, is to convert the model to a more widely used modeling software such as XP-SWMM. The two dimensional modeling capabilities of XP- SWMM would likely apply well to this complex routing network. One concept discussed with City staff would be to reroute a portion of the Glendon Pond outflow directly to the west (on the south side of Maryland Ave) towards the ditch segment located west of Sterling. The challenges with this concept would be balancing the improvement in the Glendon Pond water levels with the potential downstream impacts in the channel between Sterling and south of Magnolia, as well as the crossing of Lakewood Avenue where temporary flooding also occurred. Coordination with the Watershed District would be needed before any change in the routing of flows could be implemented. The area south of Ivy Avenue and west of Century could also be evaluated as part of the modeling work described above. The main pipe system in this area collects drainage form Century and portions of the Dennis/Farrell Street neighborhood and outlets to the same wetland complex that the Glendon Pond outlet discharges to (in Drainage Area BL-120N). It is very likely that capacity of the storm system was exceeded and the overland flow resulted in the localized flooding. The more detail modeling effort recommended in this area would evaluate the potential for additional pipe capacity or for improving the overland flow conditions to reduce the potential flooding. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 205 of 233 B-4 C – Implementation Actions to Date NA D - Recommended Actions 1. Assess the level of detail in the Ramsey-Washington-Metro Watershed District existing hydrologic model to evaluate potential improvement options. 2. Meet with RWMWD to initiate discussions on potential related issues in the area. The RWMWD Plan indicates that there are no know flooding issues in the Beaver Lake subwatershed at the time the Plan was completed. The focus of implementation actions for the WD is on water quality improvements. 3. If the WD is open to discussing potential changes in the routing of the drainage system, complete a feasibility study to identify the most feasible and cost effective approach for obtaining improvements in the overall system. Study would also assess what, if any, floodplain mapping changes would be needed for routing changes that reduce the high water levels on Glendon Pond or the wetland north of Maryland. The WD would likely partner in the improvement efforts if the rerouting work would include water quality benefits to Beaver Lake. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Drainage System Modeling and Feasibility Study $20,000 2. Implementation / construction costs TBD AREA # 4b – Gas Station at McKnight Road and Larpentuer Avenue AREA #4c – McKnight Road Catch Basins AREA #6 – Larpentuer Avenue at Sterling A – Description of Problem Area(s) #4. McKnight Road – Experienced areas of flooding - below are three of the four major areas observed: a. McKnight Road in North Saint Paul, under T.H. 36 had a number of cars stalled with water reaching window levels b. McKnight Road, approximately 300 feet south of Larpenteur Avenue, was flooded with a couple of stalled cars. c. The parking lot of the gas station along the northeast corner of McKnight Road and Larpenteur was flooded. The owner later reported that his fuel tanks had been flooded. #6. Larpenteur Avenue – East of Sterling Street water had risen up onto the west bound lane of Larpenteur Avenue near the Hill-Murray baseball field. The water was not too deep and vehicles were able to get through. B – Summary of Review and Analysis We have completed a site visit of the area and have completed a general review of the storm system routing. The Larpentuer Avenue area on the east side of Sterling is connected to the west side through a Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 206 of 233 B-5 culvert. This culvert connects the east side (BL-106) to drainage area BL-109. Area BL-110A which is located just east of the gas station and is the basin that the gas station lot drains to, also drains to BL-109 and then to BL-106. The catch basins just south of Larpentuer (Area 4c in BL-201) drain to the pond in BL-110A. During our brief site visit, we observed what appears to be limited inlet capacity in the catch basins within the parking lot. The contour information shows that the surface elevation in the lot is at about elevation 1016 and the pond to the east is at about 1012 to 1016. The downstream pond in BL-109 is at about elevation 1002-1004, so it appears that adequate grade is available. Without some level of modeling it is difficult to determine what factors contributed most to the flooding that occurred in the lot and catch basins in McKnight Road. However, we believe it was likely a combination of limited catch basin inlet capacity and high tail water elevations in pond BL-110A. We have not had a chance to discuss the storm response conditions with the Gas Station property owner to date. That discussion would likely help to understand and define what may have contributed to the high water levels at this location. C – Implementation Actions to Date City crews have completed maintenance on the ditch section at Larpentuer and Sterling. D - Recommended Actions 1. Inspect pond BL-110A inlets and outlet structure. Inspect culverts from south of Larpentuer into pond BL-110A for sediment and debris on a regular basis during the summer months and prior to implementing any improvements in the system. Completed following July 2011 storm event. 2. Complete a feasibility study on the area to identify improvements that will be protective of extreme event rainfalls. Key effort in study would be to create a detailed XP-SWMM hydraulic model of the system to evaluate potential improvement options in the overall system. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Annual inspections of system $0 - Annual inspection program. 2. Drainage System Modeling and Feasibility Study $15,000 AREA #5 – Wakefield Lake Outlet A – Description of Problem Area(s) #5. Wakefield Lake – Experienced sewer backup issues related to the storm event. At the time of this report a total of 4 homes (Hazelwood & Prosperity) were subject to basement flooding that may have been caused by lake and drainage systems overflowing into and flooding the sanitary sewer system. Cleaning services were provided to these homes. Currently the sanitary sewer main pipes are being televised to determine if there was a cross connection issue. B – Summary of Review and Analysis Related to the sanitary sewer issues along Hazelwood and Prosperity, we have obtained the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) flow data for their sanitary sewer metering stations in the area. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 207 of 233 B-6 The flow conditions in the sanitary sewer system show a significant spike in the system the morning of July 16th. Based on input from City staff, sewer back-up conditions have occurred in this are in the past during large rainfall events. In order to better understand what the contributing factors are, the City should conduct a condition assessment of the sanitary sewer system in the contributing area. This assessment would include televising portions of the system and conducting manhole inspections to evaluate where there is inflow to the system. C – Implementation Actions to Date The Ramsey-Washington-Metro Watershed District will be looking into the outlet structure improvements as part of a District-lead improvement project. D - Recommended Actions 1. Support RWMWD Outlet Improvement Project. 2. Complete condition assessment of the sanitary sewer infrastructure in the contributing sewer system pipes and manholes. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Work to be completed by RWMWD $0 2. Sanitary Sewer Condition Assessment $5,000-$10,000 AREA #7 – Knucklehead Lake AREA #9 – TH 36 Underpass AREA #16 – Truck Utilities A – Description of Problem Area(s) #7. Knucklehead Lake – The Knucklehead Lake system had several localized flooding issues: a. The Knucklehead Lake system east of Hazelwood was nearly backed up onto Cope Avenue causing water to overflow into the parking lots of several businesses and south into the park. b. 1673 & 1665 Lark Avenue – The back yard flooded Saturday morning (July 16th, 2011) and water entered into the homes. Staff has been coordinating with both residents. The resident of 1673 Lark Avenue stated that his building has previously flooded twice in 1987. #9. T.H. 36 Underpass for the Bruce Vento Trail – This area was flooded with a stalled car. This area has had a repeated history of flooding during events in 1984, 1987, 1994, and 2000. #16. Truck Utilities – This facility is located near T.H. 36 and English Street south of Gerten Pond. The facilities backyard storage area had 30 inches of standing water. B – Summary of Review and Analysis City staff met with the residents on Lark Avenue that experienced flooding following the storm event. SEH has created a hydrologic/hydraulic model for the area to evaluate the response of the Knucklehead Lake system and look at potential improvement scenarios in the overall area contributing to Gerten Pond. We have reviewed record drawings for the overall drainage area and have built a detailed XP-SWMM Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 208 of 233 B-7 hydrologic/hydraulic model of much of the trunk storm sewer system. We have reviewed a report prepared by SEH in 1988 of the Footprint Lake Outlet and miscellaneous drainage improvements. The plans and report show that there was a flap gate in the outlet pipe from the Lark Avenue backyards prior to the drainage improvements completed by the City in the 1989-1990 timeframe. The flap gate was apparently removed during the public improvements along Cope Avenue in the late 1980’s, although the flap gate removal is not mentioned in the 1988 report as a recommendation. A note in the construction plans the plans identifies the flap gate as being removed as part of the 1989 construction project. The design engineer of record for those 1989 improvements was interviewed and stated that the back yards were regularly being flooded due to the flap gate not opening for smaller and more frequent storm events. He recalls that there was discussion of the difficulty in maintaining the flap gate. He further recalls that City staff discussions with the residents concluded that removing the gate would reduce the frequency of water ponding in the backyards but that Knucklehead Lake could bounce to a high water level that would backflow from the pipe and into the backyards on Lark Avenue. Related improvements in the overall drainage system reduced the peak depth of the 100-year design storm for Knucklehead Lake. Improvement options for the Knucklehead Lake, Lark Avenue area are currently under review. C – Implementation Actions to Date Completed detailed modeling of the TH 36 system and have a preliminary plan for addressing flooding in the Truck Utilities site and the TH 36 underpass. Preliminary design work is currently underway. The design team met with MnDOT Hydraulics staff the week of January 9th to review the overall storm water routing options before moving into the final design phase of the project. Improvement options for the Lark Avenue area are currently under review. D - Recommended Actions 1. For Area 9 (TH36 Underpass) and Area 16 (Truck Utilities), implement the planned improvements as part of the TH 36-English Street improvements. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1.

AREA #8 – Edgerton Pond AREA #12 – 500 Ripley AREA #13 – Roselawn Park Pond A – Description of Problem Area(s) #8. Edgerton Pond – A number of headstones were reported under water at the cemetery. Currently no structures have been reported as having received water damage, but a number of yards were flooded. This will mark the third time this year the Edgerton Pond has had to be pumped and in the past 5 years the pond has been pumped almost a dozen times. #12. 500 Ripley – This small no outlet pond filled and was subsequently pumped. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 209 of 233 B-8 #13. Roselawn Park Pond/443 Roselawn - Experienced localized flooding issues with no reported structural flooding and required temporary pumping to prevent basin from overflowing and causing damage. B – Summary of Review and Analysis We have reviewed the previous hydrologic analyses completed in the area of 500 Ripley and Edgerton Pond. Several studies and reports were prepared by the City in 1988 including the Edgerton and Roselawn Trunk Storm Sewer Feasibility Report (City Project 85-08), April 1988, and the Feasibility Report on Maple Hills Storm Water Pumping Station (City Project 85-08), January 1988. This work recommended improvements consisting of three main elements: storm sewer connection of several storm ponds and land-locked basins; a storm water lift station from the Maple Hills Pond to Round Lake; and establishing easements over a number of storm water detention areas in the system. The preliminary cost estimates for these improvements in 2003 was on the order of $250,000. The recommendations of these previous studies were not implemented due, in part, to lack of public support and concerns with routing water to different watershed. In July 2003, the City initiated project 03-27, which proposed improvements to address localized flooding and to reduce pumping costs and time at two locations: Roselawn Park Pond (Area #13 in this study) and Edgerton Street south of Roselawn (i.e., Edgerton Pond – Area #8 in this study). No major storm water issues had been present since 1988 at these locations except for the need to regularly pump at these locations. The draft report prepared for these improvements recommended installing rain water gardens in Edgerton Park to reduce the volume of runoff entering Roselawn Park; and a storm sewer force main routed to the southwest along the DNR trail corridor to the storm sewer system at the intersection of Larpentuer and Desoto. These improvements were not implemented. Engineering Department staff has recently learned that Ramsey County will be completing improvements to Edgerton Street in 2012. The improvements will consist of recycling the existing bituminous pavement and repaving from Roselawn to Larpentuer. This work may create an opportunity for the City to install a more permanent (or semi-permanent) lift station for Edgerton Pond. City crews currently lay a temporary pipe and hose system from the south end of Edgerton Pond to Larpentuer Avenue when pumping is needed in the area. Combining this work with the Ramsey County street reconstruction would result in substantial savings in the costs of implementing improvements. Staff is currently working with Ramsey County, the City of St. Paul, the Capitol Region Watershed District and the Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District to develop a Memorandum of Understanding for installation and operation of a lift station to serve as an outlet for Edgerton Pond. For the 500 Ripley area, SEH previously completed a study of the pond located just west of Bradley Street and Ripley Avenue as described in a memorandum dated December 28, 2009 and titled Desoto Area Drainage System Evaluation. The study was intended, in part, to evaluate the response of the pond following street construction work and identify potential improvement options that would reduce the depth and/or duration of high water levels following larger rainfall events. The memorandum presents ten options which range in costs from $500 to more than $50,000, excluding costs of obtaining easements. Based on the previous analyses completed in 2009 in the Desoto/Ripley area, the risk of damage to the adjacent homes from surface flooding is low. The emergency overflow elevation from this basin is the road low point at 862.82 and the low opening of the home is at 864.5. Therefore, there appears to be no significant risk of surface flooding to the home, provided that the current practice of pumping excess water from the pond continues. Current practice is to pump the pond when the water surface elevation approaches the elevation of the sump pump outlet 855.85. The effect of the runoff on the surrounding soil conditions surrounding the home foundation is not known. However, from discussions with City staff, we understand that there have not been any basement flooding conditions at the adjacent home. If this is in Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 210 of 233 B-9 fact the case, it is likely that continued pumping on an as-needed basis could continue to be an effective management approach for this basin. As discussed in the summary for 500 Ripley (Area #12) and Edgerton Pond (Area #8), the City initiated project 03-27 in July 2003, which proposed improvements to address localized flooding and reduce pumping costs and time at two locations: Roselawn Park Pond (Area #13) and Edgerton Street south of Roselawn (i.e., Edgerton Pond – Area #8). No major storm water issues had been present since 1988 at these locations except for the need to regularly pump at these locations. Flooding and pumping creates nuisance conditions for residents due to the traffic changes the temporary piping and hose systems create. The flooding also creates difficult conditions for the public works crews as the pumps need to be manned continuously during operation. The draft report prepared for these improvements recommended installing rain water gardens in Edgerton Park to reduce the volume of runoff entering Roselawn Park; and a storm sewer force main routed to the southwest along the DNR trail corridor to the storm sewer system at the intersection of Larpentuer and Desoto. The report describes both a gravity outlet system to the south east and a force main to the southeast. The force main option was the recommended approach in 2003 at an estimated cost of roughly $92,000. These improvements were not implemented. The opportunity to create a gravity outlet from the basin is being evaluated as part of the modeling work on the Edgerton Pond system. The outlet would ultimately drain to Edgerton Pond during extreme rainfall events. The basin in Roselawn Park is classified as a wetland. Excavation of the areas surrounding the wetland could be completed and established as buffer to provide additional flood storage. The steep slopes on the north side of the park limit the extent of storage that could be completed, although it appears that sufficient area would be available adjacent to the existing pond/wetland. If the improvements include some level of excavation and the soils are acceptable as fill, the City could consider use of the excavated soils at the Maplewood Dump site, for example, if this area needs additional fill. C – Implementation Actions to Date Public works has continued temporary pumping during periods of high water levels in Edgerton Pond and the pond at 500 Ripley. Staff is currently modeling the drainage system to assist in design of an outlet and is working with Ramsey County, the City of St. Paul, the Capitol Region Watershed District (CRWD) and the Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed District (RWMWD) to develop a Memorandum of Understanding for installation and operation of a lift station to serve as an outlet for Edgerton Pond. D - Recommended Actions 1. For both areas, prepare a detailed cost estimate of staff time and equipment operation and maintenance costs for the current temporary pumping approach based on the past 20 years. Answer the question - can a sump/storage chamber improve the efficiency of the temporary pumping approach. 2. For Edgerton Pond, coordinate potential lift station and piping system installation as part of Ramsey County reconstruction work on Edgerton Street. The estimated cost of a permanent lift station system in 2003 was $158,000. The costs would be somewhat less is combined with the Ramsey County work, estimated at roughly $80,000 to $110,000. Initial discussions with both Watershed Districts yielded overall support of the improvement concept. Early stages of design work would need to produce a hydrologic assessment of the relative frequency of operation and high water level relative to adjacent structures and homes. If this approach is not viable, revisit the options presented in the draft Feasibility Report prepared by the City in 2003. Compare the Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 211 of 233 B-10 cost-benefit of potential improvements compared to the current costs of the temporary pumping approach. 3. Complete modeling analysis of Edgerton Pond and Roselawn Park Pond systems to evaluate the design and operational parameters for a lift station form Edgerton Pond. Coordinate lift station operational parameters with project partners and downstream entities (St. Paul and CRWD). 4. For 500 Ripley, review the options presented in the December 28, 2009, Desoto Area Drainage Memorandum (attached Exhibit C). Compare cost-benefit to current temporary costs. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Edgerton Pond – Modeling and Coordination $20,000 2. Edgerton Pond / Lift Station/Piping along Edgerton $80,000 3. Review cost-benefit of lift station near 500 Ripley $2,000 4. Roselawn Park Pond Outlet Improvements TBD AREA #10 – 1398 Myrtle - DONE A – Description of Problem Area(s) #10. 1398 Myrtle Street – The wetland behind the property rose 3-5 feet according to reports from the resident and they were worried about possibly losing their oak trees and how the outlet from the wetland was working. Later reports from the resident indicated the level of the wetland had started to recede. B – Summary of Review and Analysis Steve Love and Ron Leaf met with the homeowner on September 12, 2011, to review the site conditions and interview the homeowner for information relating to the July 16th storm event. Homeowner has been in the home for 6 years. In that time he has seen some smaller rainfall event s partially fill the wetland area adjacent to his backyard. The July 16, 2011, event resulted in the highest water level he has seen in the wetland basin. He has observed some higher water levels in spring snowmelt events, including the spring of 2011. The water level reached the base of several oak trees in his backyard. The resident indicated that the high water level was reached at about 12:30-1:00 PM on July 16, 4-5 hours after the rainfall has stopped. The water level stayed high for 2-3 hours then dropped about a foot in the first 24 hours after the storm. The homeowner’s main concerns are for the function of the outlet structure on the large wetland basin and some of the local drainage that overflows from a pond onto Arlington Avenue just west of his home. The overflow during spring snow melts is a concern due to icy road conditions. C – Implementation Actions to Date Based on our initial review of the as-built plans and reported high water levels, the wetland system appears to have responded as expected for a storm of this magnitude. The outlet structure was visited in the field after meeting with the resident and determined to be free of any significant debris. The outlet structure has a wooden weir skimmer structure and a reduced on the wetland outlet pipe. The outlet structure is consistent with the record drawing available for the area. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 212 of 233 B-11 The record drawings from 1993 show some slight variations on the upstream pond system on the north side or Arlington Avenue (the area that overflows onto the road) compared to what is in place today. However, the record plans show that the overflow from the pond would overflow into the road and be directed to the east towards Myrtle Street and ultimately into the wetland system to the south and east of 1398 Myrtle. D - Recommended Actions: 1. Public works staff should inspect the outlet structure during or immediately following the annual spring snowmelt to confirm free flowing conditions and to remove any debris or blockage that may be present. 2. Public works crews will review the pond overflow along Arlington during a winter or spring snowmelt condition to assess the severity of the problem. The pipe is shallow and crews have experience some freezing that has resulted in the pipe being plugged in the past due to the shallow pipe condition. If it is determined to be a safety hazard, potential could be evaluated at that time. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Wetland Basin outlet inspections $0 2. Review conditions on Arlington during spring snowmelt event. $500 AREA #11 – East Shore Drive – DONE A – Description of Problem Area(s) #11. 1874 & 1866 East Shore Drive – The wetland area behind the homes rose to a high level and pumping ensued. This area has been a recurring nuisance for the homeowners due to standing water in the backyard for several hours to days following moderate to heavy rainfall events. B – Summary of Review and Analysis SEH analyzed the system with a hydrologic/hydraulic model of the area and recommended increasing the outlet pipe size from a 3-inch PVC to a 12-inch RCP. The memorandum prepared by SEH describes some additional improvements that could be considered in the area as future street reconstruction work is completed. C – Implementation Actions to Date Improvements were installed by City crews in late August 2011. The results of this improvement will significantly reduce the depth and duration of high water levels in the backyard of the resident on East Shore Drive. However, due to the location of the home in a relatively low area without a surface overflow, the potential for extreme rainfall events that would exceed the capacity of the system, maintain a risk of high waters at this property. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 213 of 233 B-12 D - Recommended Actions 1. Continue to observe response of system and inspect new pipe for debris. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate The cost of the completed work was $10,287.78. Total costs included: pipe; concrete, asphalt and base material for the road reconstruction; topsoil; equipment rental; and labor. AREA #14 – County Road D Court - DONE A – Description of Problem Area(s) #14. County Road D Court – East of Highway 61 a storm sewer culvert and a section of the road were washed out during the storm event. Emergency repairs were required for this area in order to provide access to the Xcel sub-station and dental business. C – Implementation Actions 1. RWMWD has completed improvements. $0 AREA #15 – 2496 Flandrau Street A – Description of Problem Area(s) #15. 2496 Flandrau Street – The resident called in concerned about the level of water behind his house. Public Works Maintenance staff responded by sending out a pump to reduce the water level. B – Summary of Review and Analysis Steve Love and Ron Leaf met with the homeowner on August 30, 2011, to review the site conditions and interview the homeowner for information relating to the July 16th storm event. Homeowner has been in the home for 3 years. In that time he has seen some smaller rainfall event s partially fill the wetland as well as snowmelt creating some higher water levels in the basin. The townhome property on the far side of the wetland stores snow from plowing operations on the wetland area. During the July 16, 2011, storm event the homeowner observed water to the top of his timber wall and past several trees between the home and the wetland. No damage to the home occurred, but the water level reached an elevation within about a foot below the low floor elevation. The homeowner indicated that the peak water level occurred after the rainfall had stopped. Public works staff pumped the basin for an estimated 5 hours on Monday and 10 hours on Tuesday. We reviewed the grading plan for the adjacent townhome development and it shows an overflow swale between some garages in the townhome development and the backyard at 2496 Bittersweet. Three properties along the swale have a relatively new wooden fence along the swale. It was difficult to determine if the swale is the overflow point for the wetland basin or if the road in the townhome development serves as the overflow. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 214 of 233 B-13 C – Implementation Actions to Date None to date. D - Recommended Actions 1. Survey overflow points and low opening of the home at 2496 Flandrau to determine where overflow is and what the risk of flooding in the home is. 2. Option 1 - Consider lowering of the swale, or returning it to the planned elevation shown in the record drawings if current elevations are higher than show on the grading plan. Recommend lowering it 0.25-0.5 feet lower than the plan to allow for some natural change/increase in elevation over time. The difficulty with this option is the need to remove and possible reinstall the fence along the lot line. 3. Option 2 - Review pipe elevations in private storm sewer in the townhome development for possible lower outlet pipe. Staff will need to obtain an easement from the private development. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Survey - completed by City staff $1,000 2. Implement improvements a. Option 1 – route basin overflow to catch basin in private development. $5,000 b. Option 2 - Grade overflow swale to lower $10,000-20,000 elevation. Along residential fencline. AREA #18 – 2010 County Road B East A – Description of Problem Area(s) This area was not included in the July 19, 2011, Agenda Report. The property experience severe flooding in the yard, garage and in the home. Homeowners had damage to the lower level of the home and a vehicle that parked in the driveway. B – Summary of Review and Analysis Steve Love and Ron Leaf met with the homeowner on September 6, 2011, to review the site conditions and interview the homeowner for information relating to the July 16th storm event. The homeowner was home during the storm event and noticed several inches of water in the lower level. The homeowner indicated that the when she opened the service door into the garage, a rush of water entered the home. She observed the water level in the garage to be two to three feet in depth (see photo of approximate water level). The homeowner called several friends and relative who came to help pump the water surrounding the front of the home and garage area to the backyard where it abuts the regional trail corridor. It reportedly took two days to pump the water level down to where it no longer was ponding in the garage or home. We walked the perimeter of the home and both east and west along County Road B to review the condition of the drainage system and attempt to determine where the runoff came from during the rainfall Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 215 of 233 B-14 event. The overflow from the low area where the garage and front of the house sit appears to be to the east into North St. Paul across the gravel yard of the automotive repair shop next door. Based on our observations the water level appears to have been about two feet deep at the garage door. Several of the upstream culverts along County Road B East were observed to be partially plugged. No scour or erosion was observed along the drainage course. The downstream culverts also had sediment accumulation that likely reduced the flow capacity in the south ditch. We also walked down Stanich Street and spoke to the homeowners at 1996 Stanich. They described flooding within the street and backyards, but reported that they were not aware of any damage to homes. The backyard of 1996 Stanich shares the same low area adjacent to the regional trail as the home at 2010 County Road B East. The house clearly sits in a low point in the drainage system. What’s not clear without additional survey or reviewing County Road B East as-built drawings, is where the runoff from extreme events was intended to route. It appears that the routing was intended to be along the south ditch of County Road B East, although as stated previously, several of the upstream culverts were found to be at least partially plugged. The routing at the west driveway entrance to 2010 County Road B East appears to route to the south towards the regional trail. It is possible at this west driveway entrance that the runoff may have skipped over the subtle berm and entered the driveway area and into the low point. The surface elevation of the residential property is at about 950 base don’t he Ramsey County contour data. TH backyard low area along the regional trail is at about 946, or roughly four feet lower. Much of the south ditch of County Road B is at an elevation between 946 and 950 so there is little opportunity for lowering the overflow elevation significantly. However, there is the potential to provide an outlet lower than the low floor elevation that might consist of a ditch/pipe combination. The primary challenge appears to be how much room is available in the existing right-of-way to provide a surface route with adequate capacity for extreme event runoff conditions. On the north side of Co. Rd. B near 5th Street in North St. Paul, the surface elevations drop to around 936 to 940, which is where the current Co. Road B ditch system outlets. The area is also designated a Flood Hazard Zone AE with a Base Flood Elevation of 939 on the east side of the trail and 938 on the west side of the trail. Bryan Nagle informed Steve that he understood that North St. Paul also had some flooding during the storm event at the County Road B East/7th Street intersection several blocks to the east. Ron Leaf contacted Scott Duddeck, North St. Paul’s Public Works Director, to discuss what they experienced during the event. Scott indicated that they had some flooding at that location due to a completely plugged culvert. Scott indicated that it had been a recurring issue for some time. Scott had already been in contact with Charlie Markham at Ramsey County. Ron Leaf followed up with a separate call to Charlie on September 7, 2011. Mr. Markham returned the call and left a voice message that they had programmed some inspection and maintenance of the area into their schedule. As of late November 2011, the County has completed some ditch clean out and restoration work on portions of the County Road B ditch in North St. Paul. While this will improve the drainage in the immediate areas, it is uncertain if this will have any significant impact on the property at 2010 County Road B. C – Implementation Actions Ramsey County has recently completed some ditch cleanout and maintenance work on the ditch sections closer to 7th Street in North St. Paul. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 216 of 233 B-15 D - Recommended Actions: 1. Review County Road B East record drawings. 2. Meet with Ramsey County to review their plans for additional culvert improvements and/or maintenance work along County Road B East. 3. Recommend that Ramsey County complete some survey of grades along the ditch system from the top of the hill west of 2010 County Road B East to the wetland system in North St. Paul east of 7th Street and north of County Road B East. Obtain the survey data if/when available. As an alternate approach, the City could complete some survey of the immediate area upstream of 2010 County Road B East. The goal of the survey work would be to better assess if and where the ditch capacity was exceeded during the July 16, 2011 storm resulting in overflow into the residential property. Survey would also help to define options for an emergency overflow for the residential area or if creating a berm to limit the ditch flow from entering the residential property would be feasible. 4. Note that Met Council Environmental Services has plans for lift station improves in the auto repair shop lot that is adjacent to the flooded property and these improvements should be considered during review of ditch modifications in the immediate area. 5. Even with improved culvert conditions along CR B East, the potential for flooding at this property would likely remain due to the potential for culverts to become plugged with debris during large storm events. A complete solution will likely require a secondary overflow at an elevation below the low floor elevation at 2010 County Road B East. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Survey of the property and ditch segment along Co. Rd. B East $2,000 2. Meeting with Ramsey County and Met Council City Staff time 3. Ditch maintenance County 4. Install emergency overflow path from resident to downstream location $30,000-50,000 AREA #19 – 2324 Holloway A – Description of Problem Area(s) This area was not included in the July 19, 2011, Agenda Report. B – Summary of Review and Analysis Steve Love and Ron Leaf met with the homeowner on August 30, 2011, to review the site conditions and interview the homeowner for information relating to the July 16th storm event. Homeowner has been in the home for more than 10 years and has had water in the furnace room in the past but did not experience water in the furnace room during the July 16 event. No water was coming in from the floor drain. There is also a remnant of a conduit that originated in the back garage that currently runs through the concrete floor slab. The homeowner has filled this where possible, although it was the source of some water in the home on the morning of July 16, 2011. The home was built in 1954. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 217 of 233 B-16 There are several small drain inlet areas in the back entry step and in the lower garage in the back yard. A small drain outlet is located near the back property line, although where this system originates is not currently known. Ponding occurs near the outlet due to an area of trees and brush that have apparently resulted in the ground being raised a few inches over the years in the surrounding areas. Some simple clearing and grading would provide a free outlet to a larger pond system in City property just downstream. Homeowner indicated that he has completed some mud jacking and void filling in the driveway area in the past to help reduce the amount of water that seeps through the ground in to the lower garage. There has also been a drain filed and septic system in the back yard in the past. The system is no longer connected to the house, and the homeowner does not know where or if the drain field is still in place in the back yard. The steps leading down to the backyard appear to be sloped towards the foundation wall. We suggested that the homeowner look into this and see if he can get the water here to drain away form the foundation. This could be a source of the water getting into the remnant of conduit in the floor slab. Homeowner asked if he could redirect some of the roof drain downspouts to discharge further way from the foundation. He was advised that that would be a good option, but that he could not route them directly to the property line and into the neighboring property. C – Implementation Actions to Date We suggested that the homeowner do some experiments with the drain tile systems using a garden hose at the expected upstream locations. The intent would be to better understand what inlets are connected to the outlet at the back property line. If they are connected, the homeowner could work with the City to complete some clearing and grading to provide a free outlet for the system. The homeowner tried this approach following our visit and indicated that these initial tests were inconclusive. D - Recommended Actions 1. Homeowner should continue to investigate the drain tile connections within his property to better understand what outside piping might connected to the inside of his house or foundation. 2. Public works staff should clear and grade the back lot line where a very subtle berm has developed over time with the vegetation growth. This grading would provide a free draining outlet form the backyard into the storm water pond beyond the back lot line. E – Preliminary Cost Estimate 1. Clearing, grading and restoration by City crews $3,000. AREA #20 – 2482 Adele A – Description of Problem Area(s) This area was not included in the July 19, 2011, Agenda Report. Homeowner experience standing water in his backyard during the rainfall event and was able to use a neighbor’s pump to keep the water level form entering his lower level. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 218 of 233 B-17 B – Summary of Review and Analysis Steve Love and Ron Leaf met with the homeowner on September 6, 2011, to review the site conditions and interview the homeowner (Nick Scanlon) for information relating to the July 16th storm event. Homeowner has been in the home for 3 months. During the July 16th event, he observed standing water in his back yard that he ultimately pumped out using a neighbor’s portable pump. He has not had any water in the home, but it was within inches of the low opening of the patio door. His neighbor to the south (Gretchen and Mike Trenda) has an in-ground swimming pool and they also indicated some standing water conditions during the July 16th event. After meeting with Nick Scanlon, we proceeded downstream to the south and east and spoke to resident (Gene __) located four houses south of Mr. Scanlon’s. Gene offered some very helpful information on the drainage system that runs through his yard and the wetland located to the east of the berm that runs through is back yard. What we understand form our observations, review of the development grading plans and discussions with the residents is that there are several shallow ponding areas in the back yards that should have been drained by a swale planned for the back drainage easement. It appears that the grading plan was modified to avoid removal of a large cottonwood tree. In doing so, the original drainage pattern was modified. The drainage from the Scanlon and Trenda properties that were intended to route to the wetland, are instead routed through Gene’s yard into a storm water pond. Again, there are no apparent capacity issues in this system. We have discussed three primary improvement options that could improve the drainage conditions: 1. Install an outlet pipe through the backyard berm at 2482 Adele to the pond east of the residential site. Problems with this option include the difficulty of getting through the estimated 10 to 15 foot high berm, determining if the pond normal and high water levels would allow the routing, and getting approval/cooperation of the business owner. The most feasible approach may be to complete horizontal direction drilling of a 14 inch diameter drill hole to pull a 12-inch HDPE pipe through. The length of the pipe would be on the order of 120 to 200 LF depending on where the elevation would allow the outlet. 2. Install a 12-inch diameter outlet pipe from the Scanlon yard to the wetland where it was originally intended to route to. This option would include and outlet in the Trenda yard and possibly the next yard to the south. Challenges with this option include getting all of the residents on board and obtaining new drainage easements through the properties to install the public drainage system. The pool has gas and electric service which would also be a consideration during installation of the pipe. A variation on this option would be to route the pipe along the back drainage easement, although there is limited room between the pool and the base of the berm to work within and it would require additional length of pipe to get outlet in the two low points. . City staff reviewed Options2 in the field and raised concerns with the proximity of the outlet pipe to the existing swimming pool. 3. Install a swale along the same alignment as suggested above for the pipe outlet. This would require a culvert or footbridge at the patio connection between the house and pool. Similar concerns with proximity to the pool. C – Implementation Actions to Date None to date. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 219 of 233 B-18 D - Recommended Actions 1. We recommend implementing improvements consistent with Option 1 above. The City should meet with the business owners on the east side of the berm that would be impacted by construction and that may need to provide an easement through a portion of their property.

The primary scope of work for our review was to understand the general drainage system features and routing, understand the basis for the selected design, review design computations and plan sheets and assess the design process relative to industry standards. Our scope of work also includes an evaluation of possible alternatives to the current design to reduce the volume of runoff routed to the Edgerton South Pond and/or to reduce the depth and/or duration of high water levels in the pond. This memorandum provides a brief background of the project, and overview of pre and post project hydrologic conditions, a summary of potential modifications to the drainage system and a discussion of easement conditions. Background In 2007 the City of Maplewood completed a street reconstruction project for the Desoto-Skillman area. As part of this project, KHA completed the design work for modifications to the drainage and storm water management system to support the street improvement project. Following the construction project, KHA completed additional study of the system to determine the relative effects of drainage system changes on Edgerton South Pond. The drainage system within the Desoto Area street reconstruction area includes several natural water collection areas. Some of these natural collection areas are wetlands as defined in the City’s Wetland Protection Ordinance and are also identified in Figure 11 of the City’s Surface Water Management Plan. As part of the street reconstruction project, newly constructed storm sewer was routed to an existing utility class wetland named Edgerton South Pond located immediately west of Bradley Street. Much of this area previously routed to Edgerton South Pond prior to the installation of the new storm sewer. Utility class wetlands, by definition, are those that have had the highest impact and therefore are the lowest quality wetlands. These wetlands have generally served as part of the storm water Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 222 of 233 Desoto Area Evaluation December 28, 2009 Page 2 management system providing both water quality treatment functions and large storm runoff storage capacity. None of these basins are mapped as flood hazard zone on the most recent updates to the Ramsey County Flood Insurance Rate Maps. During the design stages for the street reconstruction project, the City assumed that Edgerton South Pond was covered by a drainage easement. At the time of the design work, The Ramsey County on-line GIS mapping identified this area as City-owned, and the County GIS database still shows this parcel to be City owned as of December 2009. After the design process, Richard and Gloria LeFebvre suggested to the City that they (LeFebvres) were the real property owners. The LeFebvres informed the City that the property had an easement from the 1986’s, which dedicated a “no-building” area. The City subsequently retained the Basiago Law Office to prepare an Owners and Encumbrances (O&E) Report for the Property. The O&E Report indicates that the City of Maplewood is the taxpayer of record for the parcel on which the pond (Edgerton South Pond) is located, including Lots 1-4. The Report also references the Quit Claim Deed recorded on July 28, 1986. The Quit Claim Deed states that LeFebvres grant to the City “the right to build a dwelling or structure on any of the below captioned lots:” Lots 1-4 are listed. The deed further states that “It is understood and agreed the City will not build on the above-mentioned.” The City informed us in a December 22, 2009, email that the underlying property (of Lots 1-4) is owned by LeFebvres and that the City has secured an assurance that LeFebvres can not build on the lot. Pre-Construction Conditions SEH staff conducted a site visit on November 30, 2009, to better understand the drainage patterns throughout the project area and observe the overall characteristics of the drainage system. The KHA design process separated the project area drainage system into four separate drainage areas; Desoto, Sanitary Sewer Lift Station, Bradley West and Bradley East (see Exhibit A). Three of these four drainage areas ultimately drain to Edgerton South Pond: Desoto; Sanitary Sewer Lift Station; and Bradley West. Edgerton Pond South does not have a piped outlet. The natural overflow is to the east with the overflow point being the center of Bradley Street at elevation 862.62. See attached Exhibit A which illustrates these drainage area boundaries and routing between the drainage areas/basins. The fourth drainage area, Bradley East, discharges into Bradley East, a land-locked basin located on the east side of Bradley Street. Infiltration is the primary outlet for this basin. This basin area is wooded and heavily vegetated with no readily identified signs indicating significant ponding occurs or remains for extended periods of time after rainfall events. Based on the design information form KHA, Edgerton South Pond maintains a permanent pool of water with a normal water level (NWL) of approximately 855.10 feet. As discussed further below, this elevation likely corresponds to the elevation of a constructed pond liner or lower permeability soil layer. The Ramsey County Soil Survey Manual shows soil conditions to be a silt loam, having a hydrologic soil group of B/D. This dual hydrologic soil group designation (B/D) is typically given for wet soils that could be adequately drained. The first letter applies to the drained condition and the second to the undrained condition. Soils are assigned to dual groups if the depth to a permanent water table is the sole criteria for assigning a soil to hydrologic group D. Based on this designation, the soils in the area would have a high infiltration capacity (Group B) but the depth to the water table is shallow, which limits the infiltration capacity at some elevation. Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 223 of 233 Desoto Area Evaluation December 28, 2009 Page 3 During discussions with City staff, it was noted that Edgerton South Pond may have been modified by the property owner by the installation of an impermeable liner. The existence of a constructed liner should be confirmed with the LeFebvres. A liner would allow the basin to maintain a permanent pool of water even though the underlying soils have a relatively high infiltration capacity. Prior to the basin being lined, it likely functioned as a natural infiltration basin without a permanent pool, somewhat like the area immediately to the east of Bradley Street. As stated previously, Bradley South Pond does not have a piped outlet and the primary outlet for the basin is by means of infiltration above the NWL. The overflow point is on Bradley Street at elevation 862.62, below the First Floor elevation of the LeFebvre home of 864.50 as noted on Exhibit C. Based on our site visit we observed one difference in the contributing drainage area to Edgerton South Pond relative to what was identified in the KHA design information. Sunrise Court, the cul-de-sac extending to the north off of Ripley Avenue was found to have a catch basin that discharges to the north and into a Class C wetland basin. As a result, this area was excluded from the SEH modeling runs under pre-construction and post-construction conditions. Based on the recollection of City staff, the Edgerton South Pond had been pumped down roughly 1 or 2 times in the late summer of 2009 and was not likely pumped down in 2008. A detailed search or review of the work orders for pumping activities was not completed. However, the daily rainfall data (for station 217377 located nearby in St. Paul) we have reviewed indicate that the pumping events described by City staff correspond well to four rainfall events between August 8 and August 25, 2009. All four of these storm events exceeded a total depth of 1.1 inches with the largest event totaling 2.46 inches. In 2008, the largest recorded storm was 1.52 inches in August 2008. There were no other significant events in 2008 within a few weeks of the 1.52 inch event. Post-Construction Conditions The street reconstruction project replaced the rural roadway section with an urban section having curb and gutter, storm sewer and catch basins to collect and convey storm water runoff. Runoff originally routed along the edge of the road is now captured and conveyed by storm sewer directly into Edgerton South Pond. The addition of curb and gutter and storm sewer to the street section created a more efficient flow condition for runoff from the road getting into the pond. While this change increases the speed at which runoff gets to the pond, the volume of water entering the pond is essentially unchanged as the project did not create any new impervious surface. Based on our site observations, the area southeast of Kingston Avenue and Bradley Street was found to flow onto the street and into the storm sewer system (See Exhibit B). For our evaluation, this area was included within the Bradley West drainage area and was removed from the Bradley East drainage area as originally shown by KHA as shown in Exhibit B. As part of the street reconstruction project, the curb and gutter and profile along Ripley Avenue resulted in the far east end of Ripley and a portion of Edgerton Street to be included within the Bradley West drainage area. As shown in Table 1, the Bradley West drainage area increased by about 2 acres and the Bradley East area decreased by about 2 acres from the pre-construction conditions to post-construction conditions. While our review identified some differences in the drainage system boundaries, the contributing areas under pre and post-project conditions are essentially the same as what KHA assumed in their analysis. There are also some small differences in assumed hydrologic characteristics, but these differences do not result in any significant differences in the results.

Drainage Areas Drainage Area Pre-Construction Conditions (ac) Post-Construction Conditions (ac) Bradley West 17.2 19.4 Bradley East 5.1 3.2 Total 22.3 22.5 Hydrologic Analysis The HydroCAD model developed by KHA was reviewed for consistency with generally accepted engineering practices for drainage networks similar to this system. Overall the modeling approach and contents of the KHA models appear to be consistent with accepted practices. SEH used these models as the basis of our review, making some minor changes to several of the input parameters to further assess the response to a range of rainfall depths. In the KHA models, exfiltration (infiltration) was assumed above the elevation of the pond liner. The following changes were made to the KHA model: Pre-Construction Conditions Time Span start/end times were modified from 5 - 48 hrs to 0 -120 hrs Edgerton South Pond (P-19) exfiltration rate was modified from 0.8 to 0.6 in/hr Bradley East Basin (1P) outlet “culvert” was removed from the model Drainage Area Bradley East total area was changed from 5.03 to 5.09 ac Post-Construction Conditions Time Span start/end time were modified from 5 – 48 hrs to 0 - 120 hrs Edgerton South Pond (P-19) exfiltration rate was modified from 0.8 to 0.6 in/hr Drainage Area Bradley West total area changed from 8.58 to 8.51 ac Drainage Area Bradley East total area changed from 3.78 to 3.17 ac Drainage Area Additional Area, time of concentration was reduced from 21.2 to 12.9 minutes Three separate models were executed for the project, each with slightly different hydrologic characteristics. The first model, listed in Table 2 as KHA, is the original KHA model used during the design of the project. The second model (SEH) incorporates the changes as noted above into the original KHA model. The third model (SEH Modified) separates out the pervious and impervious areas of roads within the curb and gutter within the Bradley West drainage area to form two separate contributing drainage areas. This SEH Modified model was created to further evaluate the significance of changing the drainage system from a rural section to urban, with curb/gutter and storm sewer. Based on the SEH model the 100-year HWL for the Edgerton South Pond increased from pre to post construction by an estimated 0.63 feet. Table 2 below compares the pre and post conditions for the various model runs. One of the key elevations in this analysis is the elevation of the sump pump discharge pipe located on the west side of the Edgerton South Pond. The LeFebvre sump pump outlet into the Edgerton South Pond is set an elevation of 855.85 feet (see Exhibit C). City staff indicated that they had pumped the Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 225 of 233 Desoto Area Evaluation December 28, 2009 Page 5 pond down at the request of LeFebvres, and generally when the pond water level reached the level of the sump pump discharge pipe. Based on the SEH Model, the minimum rainfall total to exceed the sump pump elevation is about a 2.5 inch rainfall, which equates to approximately a 1-year rainfall event. This 2.5-inch event corresponds well to the input from City staff on when the pond had been pumped in 2009. As part of our modeling analysis, we executed the model at a range of rainfall depths to identify the depth of storm event that would cause an overflow in each of the contributing drainage areas. Our modeling indicates that the Desoto Basin (Area 5P) would overflow into the Area 2P (labeled as the Sanitary Sewer Lift Station basin) under back-to-back 100 year storms; Area 2P would overflow into Bradley West (4P) under about a 5.6 inch event; Bradley East (3P) does not overflow for storms up to and including the back-to-back 100-year event; and Bradley West (4P), or the basin with Edgerton South Pond, would overtop the road and overflow into Bradley East (3P) during a back-to-back 100-year event.

The basin serves as an off-line feature collecting a small volume of storm water during rainfall events, typically sized to treat the volume of runoff from a one-inch storm for the contributing area. Since this specific feature appears to collect runoff form a relatively small area, a relatively small volume of runoff is likely captured. Therefore, because the model created is being analyzed for larger rainfall events with a significant volume of runoff, the effects of this feature were not quantified in the model. KHA also did not include this rain water garden in their model. The modeling confirms what KHA identified as part of their design work. The additional area creates higher water elevations in Edgerton South Pond in the post construction conditions than were present Agenda Item J2 Attachment 2 Packet Page Number 226 of 233 Desoto Area Evaluation December 28, 2009 Page 6 prior to the street reconstruction project. The modeling further shows that the effects of these hydrologic changes to Edgerton South Pond are most evident for storms between about 2.5 inches and 4.2 inches, those which would extend the depth and duration of water levels exceeding the elevation of the sump pump outlet from the LeFebvre home. As shown in Table 2 for the SEH Modified model, the change in peak elevation for storms above about the 2-year storm event, is on the order of a one foot increase relative to pre-project conditions. Even with this modeled increase, the 100-year peak elevation remains several feet below the first floor elevation of the home (864.50). The emergency overflow elevation from this basin is the road low point at 862.82. Therefore, there appears to be no significant change in the risk of surface flooding to the home, provided that the current practice of pumping excess water from the pond continues (when the water surface elevation approaches the elevation of the sump pump outlet). The effect of the increased depth, duration and volume of runoff on the surrounding soil conditions is not fully known. However, from discussions with City staff, we understand that there have not been any basement flooding conditions at the adjacent home. If this is in fact the case, it is likely that continued pumping on an as-needed basis could continue to be an effective management approach for this basin. For landlocked basins such as Edgerton South Pond, it is typical to assess the high water level conditions by modeling a 100-yr, 10-day snowmelt event. The basic model under this scope of work does not have sufficient detail to fully evaluate these conditions, however, this system was modeled to get obtain a general understanding of volume of water entering the ponding area. The area was modeled assuming that the contributing drainage areas had a curve number of 100 (to represent frozen soil conditions and), and using a total runoff depth of 7.2 inches. These generalized results for both pre and post project conditions show that the high water level would likely exceed an elevation of 862.82 and enter the road to the east. System Modification Alternatives Several alternatives for reducing the volume of storm water routed to the Edgerton South Pond or for reducing the depth and/or duration of the high water levels in the pond during certain rainfall events are presented in Table 3. The approximate location of each alternative is identified on Exhibit C. Table 3. Pond Response Modification Alternatives Alternative Description / Easement Needs / Construction Cost 1. Remove the Pond Liner The pond would be excavated, removing the liner from the bottom of the pond. Depending on the depth to the water table, the pond would then function as a true infiltration basin without a permanent pool. We believe the water table is low enough to see some improvement by this action as the basin to the east appears to remain dry and Edgerton South Pond does infiltrate the excess runoff volume for smaller storms. This option would effectively increase the available storage capacity and increase the infiltration (discharge) capacity. Monitoring of the new infiltration rate/capacity following future storm events could be conducted to quantify the effects of this alternative.

Pond Response Modification Alternatives (Continued) Alternative Description / Easement Needs / Construction Cost 2. Install a Curb Cut on the south side of Ripley Avenue A curb cut would be installed on Ripley Avenue, south of the cul-de-sac. The curb cut would divert storm water to the infiltration basin located within the Bradley East drainage area. There is some potential for increased erosion along this concentrated flow path and the storm water would be routed within close proximity of existing homes. This approach would intend to route a portion of the surface area to the Bradley East basin as was routed there prior to the street reconstruction project. Based on Ramsey County on-line property information, the western portions of this low area is currently owned by LeFebvre. Acres Diverted from Edgerton South Pond: 0.95 acres Easement Needed: Appears to be ROW to the south in this area. City to secure a drainage easement Edgerton South Pond and to the east/south basin area. (1) Construction Cost(2): $10,000 3-A. Install a Curb Cut on the east side of Bradley Street – North of Catch Basin A curb cut would be installed upstream of the catch basin along the east curb of Bradley Street to reroute the storm water coming from the north and east portions of Bradley and Ripley and route it to the east and into the Bradley East basin. This basin previously had more surface area routed to it, so the concept would be to return it closer to pre-project conditions. Additional grading work would need to be completed on private property to allow the flow to enter the existing low area. Based on Ramsey County on-line property information, this property is currently owned by LeFebvre. Acres Diverted from Edgerton South Pond: 1.02 acres Easement Needed: City to secure a drainage easement to the east. (1) Construction Cost(2): $7,500 3-B. Install a Curb Cut on the east side of Bradley Street - South of Catch Basin A curb cut would be installed upstream of the catch basin along the east curb of Bradley Street to reroute the storm water coming from the south portion of Bradley and route it to the east and into the Bradley East basin. This basin previously had more surface area routed to it, so the concept would be to return it closer to pre-project conditions. Additional grading work would need to be completed on private property to allow the flow to enter the existing low area. Based on Ramsey County on-line property information, this property is currently owned by LeFebvre. Acres Diverted from Edgerton South Pond: 0.65 acres Easement Needed: City to secure a drainage easement to the east. (1) Construction Cost(2): $7,500 4. Install new Catch Basins on Ripley Avenue The catch basins would be located on Ripley Avenue just west of the cul-de-sac. A storm line would be installed from the proposed CB’s to the existing CB located within the cul- de-sac. This area would then be routed to the existing basin to the north. The intent of this option is to reduce the area contributing to Edgerton South Pond to a level at or lower than pre-project conditions. The cul-de-sac was not included in the street recon project, so the City may choose to complete a mil-overlay on the cul-de-sac as part of this work. Acres Diverted from Edgerton South Pond: 1.63 acres Easement Needed: Within existing ROW. Confirm easements on pond to the north.

Pond Response Modification Alternatives (Continued) Alternative Description / Easement Needs / Construction Cost 5. Install Pump Station A pump station would be installed at the Edgerton South Pond. The pump would discharge storm water to the north into an adjacent pond. This approach is similar to what City staff is currently doing as the Edgerton South Pond water level rises to the elevation of the sump pump outlet pipe, but a permanent lift station would be installed. The station could be manually operated or automated with a water level monitoring system. A revised approach could be to install just the sump and outlet pipe system that would allow use of a portable pump on an as-needed basis. City may need to secure a drainage easement on a portion of Lot 1, as well as the parcels to the north crossing the LeFebvre driveway and extending to the adjacent pond to the north. The lift station or sump MH could be located on Lot 1 or in the ROW of Bradley Street. Acres Diverted from Edgerton South Pond: NA Easement Needed: City to secure easement on pond and parcels along pipe system. (1) Construction Cost(2): $50,000 ($20,000 for sump manhole and outlet pipe only) 6. Install Catch Basins near 575 Ripley Avenue The catch basins would be located on Ripley Avenue between properties 563 and 575. The catch basins would tie into a new storm sewer pipe extending to the north, generally in the location where there previously existed a 12-inch storm sewer to Edgerton Pond. The intent of this option is to reduce the area contributing to Edgerton South Pond. Additional areas of diversion would be needed to reduce the overall contributing area to a level at or lower than pre-project conditions. Acres Diverted from Edgerton South Pond: 0.54 acres Easement Needed: Within existing ROW. Confirm easement between properties. Construction Cost(2): $30,000 7. Do Nothing This alternative would involve making no physical changes in the drainage system. The current approach to pumping down the pond following a call or notification by the adjacent property owners of concerns for the water level, could be continued. Acres Diverted from Edgerton South Pond: NA Easement Needed: City to secure drainage easement on Edgerton South Pond. (1) Construction Cost(2):$0 8. More Active Inspection / Pumping Approach This alternative is a slight variation on the do nothing alternative, as there would be no physical changes made in the drainage system. One minor change would be installation of a staff gauge in the pond area to better monitor water levels following rainfall events. The approach would be for City staff to visit the pond after a pre-determined rainfall amount (e.g., 1.5 inches or greater) and record the water level for several days following the rainfall event. Pumping would be conducted if the water level reached a pre- determined depth. This would give the City a better understanding of the infiltration capacity of the basin and what rainfall depths bring the pond to an elevation close to the sump pump discharge pipe.
