G2 Council Packet Page Number 34 of 206 G3 MEMORANDUM TO: Charles Ahl, City Manager FROM: Mychal Fowlds, IT Director DATE: December 2, 2013 SUBJECT: Authorization to Enter Into Contract with Allied Waste for Waste Hauling Services at City Facilities Introduction The City has waste hauling needs at its main campus along with some of our larger parks. The contract we are currently in is expiring and therefore we are looking to enter into a new agreement for the same services. Background The City is currently receiving waste hauling services for all buildings at our main campus: 1902, City Hall and the Community Center. Under this same contract we fulfill our waste hauling needs at Goodrich, Wakefield and Harvest parks. The City has been in a 5-year contract with Waste Management and that contract is expiring at the end of December. Over the last 4 months staff has obtained new proposals from Waste Management and Allied Waste/Republic Services. This analysis was conducted by personnel from the City’s environmental division, facility management division, and a representative from the solid waste industry. The conclusion was that the City’s trash service is currently right sized but that there are internal procedural and external equipment changes that could be made to make the City’s waste disposal process safer for employees. Budget Impact The item listed above has been planned for and will be funded from the General Fund and MCC Fund. Monthly expenses are estimated at approximately $2,400 per month (a reduction of nearly $900 per month). Recommendation It is recommended that authorization be given to enter into a one-year contract with Allied Waste/Republic Services for waste hauling services at City facilities. Attachments 1.

The majority of the construction was put out for bid and awarded to the low bidder, Jorgenson Inc. Certain items were not part of the bid package. As these items arise staff will present them to the City Council for approval.

Existing work spaces will be remodeled and new work spaces will be created. In doing so staff has needs for the item shown below. This item is considered to be outside the scope of the construction bid but is certainly part of the Police Department Expansion Project. Commercial Furniture Services (CFS) – Office furniture purchases and installation for Section 1 (predominantly offices on the South side of the building) of Phase 3 utilizing US Communities pricing not to exceed $36,000. Budget Impact The item listed above has been planned for and will be funded from the Police Department Expansion Project fund.

Those meetings are also to be broadcast live and recorded for playback. A large amount of our current equipment is nearing its end of life. This proposal would replace the majority of our core systems while adding additional functionality to the space. Background The current cameras and related equipment were installed in 2005/2006 in the amount of roughly $45,000 via an equipment replacement grant by the Cable Commission. While that equipment has worked well we are beginning to see intermittent issues. In 2010 we upgraded our audio equipment in the amount of roughly $26,000 also funded via an equipment grant. While most of this equipment is still functioning as expected there are some needed improvements as well. What follows is a summary of improvements that are included in this request for funding.  Cameras & Corresponding Equipment – This includes the replacement of all of our cameras with new HD cameras and very similar controls to what we currently have. This also includes a new switcher for controlling what gets broadcast when. Our current switcher was purchased in 2006.  Cablecast Recording & Playback – Once we move to HD we will need to replace the equipment used to capture and replay our meetings. This includes a system similar to our existing system but would be able to handle HD while also giving us some new features for our Bulletin Board.  Press-to-Speak Audio Upgrade – This will replace our current microphone stands with stands that will allow you to “raise your hand”. You’ll still be able to turn your microphones on and off but you will now be able to request to speak through your microphone as well. This will replace our current microphone stands and our homemade request to speak system.  Wireless Microphones – This request includes the replacement of both of our wireless microphones.  Media Switch at Dais – This provides the ability to connect and broadcast your laptop or iPad from any section of the dais. Currently we’re able to do this from only the presentation area by the document camera. This would allow anyone seated at any area of the dais to give their presentation from where they are sitting.  Chamber Displays – Lastly, this request includes 2 additional flat panel TV’s for viewing material within the chambers. Council Packet Page Number 56 of 206 G5 If funded, the items listed in this project would not only upgrade and replace our core equipment used for capturing our meetings, they would also provide us with new tools to help improve the meeting itself. Budget Impact Assuming that the request is granted by the Ramsey/Washington Suburban Cable Commission there would be no long term budget impact to the City. If funds are allocated we will follow the City’s purchasing procedures and bring the purchase back to the City Council for approval. Recommendation It is recommended that authorization be given to request funding from Ramsey/Washington Suburban Cable Commission for Council Chambers improvements. Attachments 1.

The planning process is guided by: 1) Maplewood’s 2030 Comprehensive Plan-Chapter 9, 2) Heritage Preservation Ordinance, 3) requirements for Certified Local Governments (Maplewood achieved this designation in 2012), and 4) state and federal preservation standards. Earlier this year, the Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) approved pursuing a grant to conduct an historic context study. This type of study organizes history based on cultural themes and their geographical and chronological limits. For example, one historic context for the state of Minnesota is “Early Agriculture and River Settlement (1840-1870). The context study is a framework for evaluating the relative significance of cultural resources. Rather than concentrating on individual properties, it focuses on broad themes that the city can use to organize and evaluate resources. The contexts established create a foundation for future preservation planning and projects. Maplewood has received a $9500 grant to conduct the historic context study. The funds for this grant are provided by the State of Minnesota from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the Minnesota Historical Society. This project will establish historic contexts for the city and identify property types associated with each context. The final report will be written in a manner which is engaging and of interest to the public. Staff requested proposals from four historical consultants and received bids from two consulting firms – Thomas R. Zahn and Associates and Summit Envirosolutions, Inc. Both firms are well- qualified, their proposals were for the full $9500 grant, and their proposals met the city’s requirements. Staff recommends awarding the project to Thomas R. Zahn and Associates. They have conducted more historic context studies for full cities than Summit Envirosolutions, Inc. In addition, the sample study submitted by Thomas Zahn and Associates was written and formatted for use by the general public and is cited as an excellent model for a context study by the State Historic Preservation Office. G6 Council Packet Page Number 61 of 206 Budget Impact The $9500 grant will cover all consultant fees on the project. No other budget impacts are anticipated. No matching funds are required. Recommendation It is recommended that the Council accepts the $9500 Cultural and Historic grant to conduct a historic context study. It is recommended that the council authorize staff to enter into a contract for services with Thomas Zahn and Associates in the amount of $9500 to conduct an historic context study. Attachments 1.

Zahn Submitted To: Virginia Gaynor, Natural Resources Coordinator City of Maplewood, 1902 County Road B East Maplewood, Minnesota 55109 November 26, 2013 G6, Attachment 1 Council Packet Page Number 63 of 206 2 introduCtion This past summer the associaTes completed a National Register nomination evaluation for the Oak Grove/ Bloomington Cemetery in Bloomington Minnesota. Subsequently, the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) has determined those historic grounds eligible for the Register, triggering the final nomination process for this second-tier suburb’s significant burial grounds. Increasingly, suburban communities like Bloomington and Maplewood are exploring ways to discover, record and value their historical contributions to the region. With the creation of a set of specific historic contexts, Maplewood takes the important step of linking preservation to planning, ensuring a vibrant future for the community by building on the resources of its past. Historic contexts will allow the city to evaluate the community’s late 19th century rail-related resources through its mid-20th century growth assets, incorporating them in the comprehensive planning process, while securing the character and spirit inherent in Maplewood’s history. In general, historic contexts are considered most valuable as a “framework” for evaluating the relative significance of cultural resources such as varied sites, structures, districts, and other elements. They serve as an organizational tool for defining a community’s history, a past which is often otherwise lengthy, complex, and unwieldy. They serve as measurable tools to the National Park Service for evaluating potential National Register landmarks and districts. They also provide the foundation for a vibrant city-wide historic preservation plan. Rather than concentrating on individual properties or even neighborhoods, historic contexts focus on broad, over- arching themes that provide the city with the means to organize and evaluate its resources and lend perspective on the past. By developing these preservation themes, the city can most effectively evaluate current resources, designate new ones, and plan for preservation in future generations. The contexts will allow for a more equitable designation of properties, as each site can then be viewed in terms of what is best for the city as a whole, rather than as a single instance in isolation. These contexts also assist commissioners in making difficult decisions about the preservation of buildings, sites, and structures that best represent Maplewood’s history, and to target future preservation efforts in the areas where they are most effective. Identified and defined contexts can also be used as a rallying point for educational and community participation initiatives and are integral to future planning for land use, economic development, parks and recreation, transportation, public infrastructure and housing. As more data is organized, the contexts will evolve and change, recommendations will be updated and the contexts will become more useful as long-range planning tools. The expanded contexts, in addition to being a framework for evaluation resources, will be useful in public education programs for neighborhood organizations, government bodies, and local schools. Rather than serving as a static end point that “mothballs” historic resources, this study is designed to be an exciting jumping-off point for the future of preservation in Maplewood. The associaTes propose to use their considerable experience in both community planning and historic resource management to help Maplewood and its HPC develop the contextual component for the city’s preservation plan. Our past work on historic contexts for other communities has been well-received with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) staffer, Michael Koop, even calling our Chaska work “a model for other context studies.” Related Thomas R Zahn & associaTes’ project experience includes Historic Context studies for: • City of Waseca (contextual development for entire incorporated city) • City of Mankato (contextual development for entire incorporated city) • City of Chaska and Chaska Township (contextual evaluation for entire incorporated city and township) • City of Faribault (contextual evaluation and refinement for entire incorporated city) • City of Lake City (contextual development for entire incorporated city) • City of Minneapolis (contextual development for entire incorporated city) G6, Attachment 1 Council Packet Page Number 64 of 206 3 work Plan As defined above, the main objective for the associaTes in defining historic contexts for the City of Maplewood is to provide a framework for the community’s history that can assist in making future planning decisions, including though not limited to, National Register nominations, building surveys, and a comprehensive preservation plan. conTexTual ReseaRch design developmenT The study process will begin by meeting with interested parties, including the Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) and City representatives, to identify prominent local resources, sites, and priorities. The associaTes will then meet with the State Historic Preservation Office regarding federal guidelines and state contexts. The associaTes will review previous historic records including, but not limited to, local and regional histories, mapping, insurance maps, and photographic documentation found at the Maplewood Area Historical Society (MAHS), the Maplewood Public Library, the Ramsey County Historical Society, the City files, and the Minnesota Historical Society. During this phase of the study, the associaTes will review of the statewide contexts to determine significant interface between local and statewide contexts. The associaTes will also review all previous Maplewood preservation planning projects including any archeological studies completed within the incorporated city. In addition to these standard reviews, the associaTes will evaluation and compare Maplewood’s railroad resources and history to our extensive work in rail-related projects. This includes, but is not limited to our work with railroad resources in Saint Paul’s Lowertown district, the Northern Pacific Railway Depot in Staples, and the Shoreham Roundhouse and yards in Northeast Minneapolis. More recently (January 2013) the associaTes completed the National Register nomination for the Duluth and Iron Range Railroad Company Passenger Station in Tower, Minnesota. The context studies for Lake City, Chaska and Mankato all address railroad resources in those communities. The City of Waseca Historic Context Study (2010) includes an entire context (Context 2—The Railroad) with sub-contexts titled: the Winona & St. Peter Line and the Minneapolis & St. Louis Line; Railroad- Related Buildings and Resources; Property Types; and Railroad Context Recommendations. conTexTual developmenT and analysis Armed with an initial analysis of broad development patterns, the consultants will collect background information on those patterns. From this research, the consultants will initiate a tour of the city, with a focus on the neighborhood and business growth patterns. The tour will help to refine our analysis of Maplewood’s built environment and historic resources. Synthesizing the research and the visual survey analysis, the consultants will develop overviews, chronologies of significant events, important broad patterns, identify entrepreneurs/ builders/architects, related property types, bibliographies, and recommendations for the 5-8 contexts that particularly represent Maplewood’s development and history, as well as the City’s role within the state’s history. That contextual outline will be distributed for review and comment by the HPC and the City’s staff. conTexTual and planning pRocess RefinemenT After reviewing the comments to the draft outline, the consultants will then write a draft report including historic contexts, their parameters and definitions, and recommendations for structuring subsequent phases of the preservation planning process and involving the public and private sectors in that process. In addition, the “Residential” context chapter will include an architectural style guide with Maplewood style examples pictured and listed by address (as was done in the Lake City, Chaska, Mankato, and Waseca context studies). With the completion of the draft report, the consultants will distribute copies of the draft to the major participants in the Maplewood preservation effort for their review. With comments on the draft from the City, the HPC and the SHPO, the consultants will complete the refinement, layout and production of the City of Maplewood Context Study. deliveRables: A minimum of ten (10) copies of the final project report; one (1) digital copy of every photograph taken or utilized for the project, with date and location denoted; and a digital copy of the final report in PDF format. The associaTes will also prepare a computer-aided presentation for the final community meeting. Throughout the study process the associaTes will provide monthly progress reports and meet with the HPC, the MAHC, and City staff for systematic review and evaluation.

ZaHn PrinCiPal Principal, Thomas R. Zahn & associaTes, LLC Master of Architecture/Urban Planning—University of Minnesota Architectural Studies—Washington University, Saint Louis Bachelor of Arts, Political Science—University of Notre Dame As the Preservation Planner for the City of Saint Paul from 1982-1986, Mr. Zahn provided staffing services for the preservation program of over 50 locally designated historic sites and three historic districts comprised of more than 800 structures. His services included: • developing the local nomination form and design guidelines for the Lowertown Historic District, • supervising the publication of the Saint Paul and Ramsey County Historic Sites Survey, • conceiving and designing the Saint Paul Heritage Preservation Commission Report, and • documenting existing conditions (age of structure, address, preservation classification, and photographic documentation) of Summit Avenue in preparation for the creation of the West Summit Avenue District. In July of 1986 Mr. Zahn formed Thomas R. Zahn & associaTes, a consultant firm dedicated to addressing the design and planning needs of the preservation community. Upon the formation of the associaTes, the National Trust for Historic Preservation hired Mr. Zahn to provide consulting services on the preservation and reuse of Johnston Hall in Faribault, Minnesota. He participated in the Preservation Advisory Services Team (PAST) consultation and prepared the Johnston Hall Report for publication by the National Trust and the City of Faribault. From 1990 to 1991 Thomas R. Zahn & associaTes was under contract with the City of Minneapolis to develop the City’s Preservation Plan. This preservation planning process included the development of historic contexts for Minneapolis, facilitating a number of Heritage Preservation Commission workshops, and coordinating the City’s preservation efforts with the Minneapolis Neighborhood Revitalization Program. In 1991 Mr. Zahn was selected by the Wisconsin Trust for Historic Preservation to coordinated the Trust’s public education project. Working with Landscape Research, Mr. Zahn completed the Wisconsin Historic Resource Handbook, prepared the Historic Wisconsin Preservation Workshop, and developed the scripts for two slide shows representing the goals and objectives of the preservation movement in Wisconsin. Mr. Zahn was then selected by the Wisconsin Trust to present day-long workshops throughout the State promoting preservation resource management and local preservation initiatives. Mr. Zahn then completed a series of preservation brochures for distribution throughout Wisconsin. The series included primers on: Historic Resource Management, The Dos and Don’ts of Rehabilitation, Saving Threatened Buildings Through Reuse, Saving Wisconsin’s Rural Landscape, The Economics of Historic Preservation, and Historic Signage in Identifying Wisconsin’s Heritage. In 1993, under contract with the City of Faribault, Mr. Zahn completed the City’s Downtown Design Guidelines and facilitated a workshop on their application for Faribault business owners. Since that time his office has completed design guidelines for the cities of Little Falls, Shakopee, Lake City, Chatfield, Northfield, New Ulm, St. Cloud, Breckenridge/Wahpeton ND, Litchfield, Carver, Lanesboro (2013) and the Village of Afton (2013). In 2003, the associaTes were selected by the City of Lake City to complete the contextual development phase of their preservation plan. That effort has been recognized as one of the finest contextual studies for a community in Minnesota. Since that time the associaTes completed contextual studies for the cities of Chaska, Mankato, and Waseca, Minnesota. Mr. Zahn serves on the Board of Advisors to the National Alliance of Preservation Commissions and served as an editor of the Alliance Review, the Preservation Commission national newsletter. He served as President of the Preservation Alliance of Minnesota and has participated in presentations on preservation program management at the National Trust Preservation Conferences in Baltimore, Seattle , Cincinnati , Charleston, and Miami. Zahn has served as speaker on the reuse study process at the National Trust Regional Conference in Saint Paul, the Minnesota Preservation Conference in Saint Peter and at the American Planning Association Conference in Duluth. More recently in Alexandria, he made a presentation on the development and use of design guidelines at the American Planning Association Conference.

Zahn & associaTes projects. She has completed background research for the Lake City ordinance revisions, which included locating other City ordinances that specifically addressed the historic preservation issues of their business districts; she also researched and wrote the summary history for the City of Chatfield Downtown Preservation Design Manual. Ms. Gladhill has played a key role in the firm’s last four National Register nominations. She researched and prepared the Determination of Eligibility and subsequent National Register nomination for the former the Minneapolis Fire Department Repair Shops. Her preparation included preparing a chronology of events surrounding the formation and growth of fire/public safety in the City of Minneapolis. The State Historic Preservation Commission voted to approve the nomination and forward it to the National Park Service in 2004, and the owners of the property have used this designation to secure federal tax credits. Gladhill also helped complete nomination projects for the Minnesota Building, located in downtown Saint Paul, which was put on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009, Christiania Lutheran Free Church (2010), and just completed work on that Minnesota Milk Company Building which received Minnesota State Review Board approval novembeR 2013 and will be sent to the National Park Service in December for final listing on the Register. In her work with Thomas R. Zahn & associaTes, Gladhill has specialized in the creation of comprehensive, distinctive Historic Context studies. In 2003, the associaTes completed such a study for the City of Lake City. This process included meeting with stakeholders, reviewing existing resources and researching new materials, surveying the City’s structures, and determining and writing the final contexts. That report has since been used repeatedly by the State Historic Preservation Office as a model for other context studies. More recently, the firm conducted a similar Historic Context Study for the City of Chaska, which has been an instrumental part of the community’s preservation efforts. Since that time working with the Associates she has helped develop the context studies for the cities of Mankato and Waseca, Minnesota. Other representational work with the associaTes includes co-developing an Interpretive Plan for Fort Snelling’s Upper Post, researching and assisting with the Wahpeton/Breckenridge Design Guidelines, and researching and writing a site report for a residence in Mankato. Gladhill’s primary focus is the integration of historic preservation into community planning and development. To this end, she has also coordinated the adaptive use of a Minneapolis warehouse into a non-profit theatre venue, participated in the planning of a Northeast Minneapolis arts district, and worked as the Executive Coordinator for the Neighborhood Revitalization Project in the old “Little Italy” district of northeast Minneapolis, including developing that neighborhood’s NRP Action Plan. She also volunteers extensively with the Ramsey Hill Association on their semi-annual house tour, and with a historic park group in Saint Paul.

G13, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 110 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: Charles Ahl, City Manager FROM: Michael Martin, AICP, Planner Melinda Coleman, Assistant City Manager DATE: December 3, 2013 SUBJECT: Approval of a Conditional Use Permit Review, Kline Auto World, 2610 Maplewood Drive Introduction The conditional use permit (CUP) for Kline Auto World is due for its annual review. The CUP was required 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. Background August 27, 1984, the city council approved the use and plans for a new car dealership. September 27, 1993, the city council approved a CUP to expand an automobile maintenance garage within 350 feet of a residential lot line. April 23, 2012, the city council approved a CUP to allow the sale of used cars. Discussion No building construction was required as part of this approval. During staff’s inspection of the site some trash and debris were found on the north side of the site. Also, two “temporary” signs, which had footings placed in the ground, were identified by staff. Staff informed the property owner to clean up the site and remove the “temporary” signs. Staff also sent the property owner information on the city’s temporary sign requirements. All other conditions of approval were being met. Staff recommends reviewing this permit again in one year to ensure continued compliance. Budget Impact None. Recommendation Approve the conditional use permit for a planned unit development for Kline Auto World, 2610 Maplewood Drive, and review this permit again in one year to ensure continued compliance.

G14, Attachment 3 Council Packet Page Number 116 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: Chuck Ahl, City Manager FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director DATE: December 2, 2013 SUBJECT: Public Hearing on 2014 Tax Levy and Budget a. Resolution Certifying Taxes Payable in 2014 b. Resolution Adopting a Budget for 2014 Introduction Staff is requesting City Council approval of two related matters concerning the levy certification of the final taxes payable in 2014 as well as adoption of the proposed 2014 Budget for the City of Maplewood. A public hearing on the proposed taxes and budget for 2014 has been scheduled for December 9th at 7:00 p.m. State law requires that the final property tax levy and budget be adopted at this hearing. The tax levy needs to be adopted before the budget is adopted. Background At the September 9th council meeting, a total proposed tax levy of $18,898,970 was approved which is 2.0% ($370,570) more than the 2013 levy. At the workshop earlier that evening, staff provided council with options regarding a levy increase which included the possible funding of a south police substation, accelerating the Lakewood/Sterling area streets project, economic development, Community Center upgrades and park improvements. Council expressed interest in the south police substation, accelerating the street project and parks funding. The following information was discussed with Council at the October 28th workshop regarding the legislative session, the General Fund fund balance and these capital project options. Legislative Actions and Debt Service This past session, changes were made to the Local Government Aid (LGA) program which allocated LGA funding to the City of Maplewood for the first time since 2002. The City is currently set to receive $530,709 in 2014. At the same time, the legislature also imposed levy limits with the intent to offset any levy increases with the additional LGA. In a report presented to the Council at the June 10th workshop, the analysis of City debt indicated that a majority of the new revenue from LGA should be used to hold down the levy increase by applying the new LGA funds to debt service for at least the next 5 years. Based on recent history, staff would not advocate utilizing the new LGA for operations. Changes have been made in how we operate since the State cut our MVHC funds in 2008-2011, where we lost almost $1.95 million dollars, and the City would have a difficult time finding more cuts in operations if the State were ever to unallocate LGA funding. Applying these LGA funds to debt service does hold down our levy increase without jeopardizing our operations budget. H1 Council Packet Page Number 117 of 206 General Fund Update Based on an analysis of financial information for the first 9 months of the year, it appears the City may have approximately $380,000 more than needed at year end to meet its 40% fund balance requirement. This is mainly due to vacancies in positions, not having any unforeseen occurrences that call for capital outlay and departments holding the line on spending. The final amount of this overage is dependent on what happens during the remainder of the year. The funds will be available for use only if we do not need them to cover expenses through the rest of the year and they are not expected to occur again next year. Because of this, they should not be used for continuing operations as this would not be consistent with our goal of financial sustainability. This $380,000 could be used to offset the 2.0% tax levy increase currently under consideration by Council. Budget Options and Levy Increase Fire Station #1 – One issue the City has been struggling with is the funding of the new Fire Station at the 3M site. With the building permit fees that are expected to be collected on the new 3M R&D facility, it appears that the City could reduce or redirect a portion of its General Fund tax levy for one year. Based on current estimates, this would mean that about $500,000 of revenue could be redirected to the Fire Station fund. This has already been factored into our re-estimate for 2013 and the 2014 budget for the General Fund and would not require using any of the $380,000. Police Sub-Station at Fire Station #1 – This was discussed at the September 9th workshop where Chief Schnell is open to considering assigning staff and resources to enhance police service in the southern leg of Maplewood. Updated cost estimates show that a one-time expense of $100,000 is needed to add these facilities with the potential need for an additional squad car in 2015. Staff is proposing to utilize $100,000 of the $380,000 from the General Fund to cover the facility costs and plans on factoring the squad purchase into the 2015 budget. Lakewood/Sterling Area Streets Project – There was a request from residents at a previous council meeting to move this project up from 2016 to 2015. Since that request, no formal petition has been received from residents in that area. Staff is recommending leaving the project in 2016 as noted in the most recent CIP Plan. If the Council does opt to move the project forward, staff would not recommend backfilling the project (no other projects could be moved up to fill the gap in 2016). The CIP Plan was put together with an emphasis on managing our debt. Any additional debt will put a further strain on this effort. If the project were to be moved up, the City could look at capitalizing the interest in a bond issue or borrowing the money internally from another city fund until the bonds are issued. None of the $380,000 is being proposed for this project. Economic Development – The EDA began levying for taxes in 2012. If additional funds are needed in this area, the levy for the EDA should be raised. Staff would not recommend transferring any of the City levy over to the EDA levy. Parks – The Parks System Task Force is currently working on a Park System Plan. In conjunction with this, staff has been gathering information on costs related to parks and has recently presented information to the Task Force. More information will be brought forward to the Council as the Task Force moves further into its process. Staff does not recommend transferring any of the $380,000 to parks at this time. It makes more sense to wait until the plan is completed to determine how much, if any, additional funding is needed and figure out a source of revenue at that time. Fund Deficits – A high priority for the City is to reduce the deficits in the Community Center Operations Fund and the Ambulance Service Fund. These deficits are brought up during every H1 Council Packet Page Number 118 of 206 audit and every bond rating call. We need to show continual progress on reducing and eventually eliminating these deficits. Staff’s recommendation would be to apply the balance of the overage in the General Fund to these two funds. This does help keep down the tax levy because both of these funds currently receive general tax levy dollars and one of the options to eliminate the deficits would be to raise the levy amounts. This also is one of the many factors that helps the City maintain its high bond rating. Levy Impact The annual impact of the city levy increase to Maplewood homes is as follows based on information received from Ramsey County on November 12, 2013. The scenario is based on the assumption that a home’s value is decreasing by 2.3%, which is the median amount. Set levy at $18,528,400 (no change from 2013): Property Value for 2013 Taxes Property Value for 2014 Taxes 2013 City Tax 2014 City Tax $ Increase (Decrease) % Increase (Decrease) $100,000 $97,700 $ 372 $ 354 ($18) -4.8% $150,000 $146,500 $ 648 $ 620 ($28) -4.3% $160,700 $157,000 $ 707 $ 678 ($29) -4.1% $275,000 $268,700 $1,339 $1,288 ($51) -3.8% $350,000 $341,900 $1,753 $1,687 ($66) -3.8% The State Auditor recommends that cities maintain unreserved fund balances in their general fund of approximately 35 to 50 percent of fund operating revenues or no less than five months of operating expenditures. The 2014 budget projects a fund balance of 40% of fund operating revenues and 4.7 months of operating expenditures. The 0.0% levy increase puts us within the range recommended by the State Auditor. An adequate fund balance is needed to maintain our bond rating and provide a sufficient balance for our cash flow needs. Information from Ramsey County shows that other city proposed tax levy changes are as follows: Gem Lake 56.72% Vadnais Heights 2.98% Roseville 4.39% St. Anthony 2.59% Town of White Bear 3.71% North St. Paul 1.84% Shoreview 3.28% Lauderdale 1.00% Arden Hills 3.06% St. Paul 0.00% Little Canada 3.00% Falcon Heights -0.01% Mounds View 3.00% White Bear Lake -0.01% North Oaks 3.00% New Brighton -7.01% UPDATE ON STATE PERFORMANCE MEASURES The City opted to participate in the State Performance Measurement Program this year. A survey was created which contained 9 performance measures developed by the Council on Local Results and Innovation. The survey was made available to our residents during the month of November. We received about 56 responses and the results will be published either in our City Newsletter or on our website. A snapshot of the responses is as follows: H1 Council Packet Page Number 119 of 206 Question Excellent Good Fair Poor Don’t Know Appearance of City 9% 57% 30% 2% 2% Feeling of Safety 24% 65% 7% 4% 0% Quality of Fire/EMS 29% 29% 9% 9% 24% Condition of Streets 11% 43% 31% 13% 2% Quality of Snowplowing 41% 28% 19% 9% 4% Quality of Sewer 33% 37% 7% 2% 20% Quality of Water 43% 44% 6% 0% 7% Quality of Rec Programs/Parks 35% 48% 9% 2% 6% Overall City Services 11% 62% 17% 9% 0% SALES TAX EXEMPTION The 2013 Minnesota Legislature enacted a new sales tax exemption for local governments including cities, towns and counties under MN Statutes, section 297A.70, subdivision 2. This exemption allows cities and counties to purchase taxable tangible personal property and services without paying the state 6.875% sales tax, with certain exceptions. Examples of items that will not be eligible for the exemption include: • Inputs used to provide goods or services through the Community Center Operations Fund, the Trash/Recycling Fund and the Street Light Utility Fund; • Purchases made by contractors and subcontractors on behalf of the city for construction projects; • Motor vehicles. Our estimate for savings to our General Fund is $75,000 - $90,000, which is reflected in our reduced tax levy for the General Fund for 2014 ($170,070). Our estimate for city-wide savings is $155,000. The savings related to Special Revenue and Capital Projects Funds will be used to fund programs and projects within the City. The savings related to Sewer and Environmental Utility Funds will be used in the overall calculation of future user charges. Budget Impact This will set the 2014 tax levy payable and the 2014 Budget for the City of Maplewood as required by state law. The final resolutions were prepared without the 2% preliminary levy increase that was approved at the September 9, 2013 meeting. This 2% is approximately equal to the amount of money that is projected to be available in the General Fund at the end of 2013, and thus, staff is recommending that Council not proceed with the levy increase. A 0% levy increase is consistent with legislative intent. Recommendation Staff recommends approval of the following two resolutions: a. Resolution Certifying Taxes Payable in 2014 b. Resolution Adopting a Budget for 2014 Attachments 1. Resolution Certifying Taxes Payable in 2014 2. Breakdown by Debt Service Fund 3. Resolution Adopting a Budget for 2014 4. 2014 Proposed Budget (under separate cover) H1 Council Packet Page Number 120 of 206 RESOLUTION CERTIFYING TAXES PAYABLE IN 2014 BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MAPLEWOOD, MINNESOTA that: 1. The following amounts of taxes be l evied for 2013, payable in 2014, upon t he net tax capacity in said City of Maplewood, for the following purposes: General Fund $12,330,530 Ambulance Service 450,000 Community Center 525,000 Recreation Programs 175,000 Capital Improvement Projects 180,000 Fire Truck Replacement 50,000 Park Development 30,000 Redevelopment 40,000 Debt Service 4,042,840 TOTAL LEVY $17,823,370 2. In addition, there is a $615,760 market value based referendum levy for 2013 payable in 2014 to finance the debt service on the 2002 Open Space Refunding Bonds and the 2004 Fire Safety Refunding Bonds. This results in a total certified City levy of $18,439,130. There is also a proposal for an EDA levy of $89,270. This would bring the total levy up to $18,528,400 (no change from 2013). 3. The net tax capacity based levy of $4,042,840 for Debt Service and the market value based referendum levy of $615,760 total $4,658,600. This is a net decrease of $1,911,378.91 in the scheduled levy of $6,569,978.91. The breakdown by Debt Service Fund is attached.

H1, Attachment 3 Council Packet Page Number 124 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: R. Charles Ahl, City Manager FROM: Michael Thompson, City Engineer/Public Works Director DATE: December 4, 2013 SUBJECT: New Assessment Hearing Set for December 19, 2013, HHiigghhwwaayy 3366//EEnngglliisshh SSttrreeeett IInntteerrcchhaannggee IImmpprroovveemmeennttss,, PPrroojjeecctt 0099--0088 Introduction This is an informational update that a New Assessment Hearing for this project will be held on December 19, 2013 at 7pm. Background On November 25, 2013 the council held an Assessment Hearing. The correct assessment roll was accepted by council at the October 28, 2013 which called for an Assessment Hearing to be held. However, at the November 25 Assessment Hearing it was discovered the assessment roll in the agenda packet for consideration was incorrect and a possible error in mailed assessment statements could have occurred. Thus no action was taken by council on the assessment roll. As a precaution it was decided to hold a New Assessment Hearing on December 19, 2013 and consider adoption of the roll at that time. All property owners have been mailed a new notice of the exact amount of their assessment, as well as notice that they must submit a written objection either at, or prior to, the hearing if they disagree with the assessment amount. The hearing date has also been published in the local newspaper as required. Property owner objections received for the November 25, 2013 Assessment Hearing will continue to remain valid for the New Assessment Hearing on December 19, 2013. Owners were mailed a letter to that effect so they understand they do not have to re-object. Recommendation No action is required; rather this is an update that a New Assessment Hearing will be held on December 19, 2013 at 7pm. Attachments 1. None I1 Council Packet Page Number 125 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: Chuck Ahl, City Manager FROM: Shann Finwall, AICP, Environmental Planner DATE: December 4, 2013 SUBJECT: Approval of the Conversion to Recycling Carts for the City’s Residential Recycling Program Introduction On September 9, 2013, the City Council approved a contract with Tennis Sanitation, LLC, for City-wide residential recycling. The Contract extends recycling collection with Tennis for two more years (2014 and 2015), with two one-year extensions possible. The contract specifies that recyclables will continue to be collected curbside in the City’s existing recycling bins, with language that will allow the City to convert to recycling carts (either contractor or City-supplied carts) at any time during the term of the contract. Background In October, after the approval of the recycling contract, the City was awarded a $100,000 grant for the purchase of recycling carts through the Ramsey County Public Entity Reduction and Recycling Program. The program provides funding for innovative programs that increase source reduction and residential recycling efforts. The grant agreement is based on the City’s grant submittal which requested the funding in order to offset the cost of recycling carts and decrease the fee charged to residents. All grant-funded work must be complete within two years of the grant award. On December 3, 2013, Tennis submitted new recycling contract proposals for the City Council’s review (Attachment 1). These new proposals include a six to seven year contract with City- purchased and contractor-supplied recycling carts. This memorandum analyzes the pros and cons and cost comparisons of each recycling cart roll out scenario. Discussion Recycling Cart Options City-Purchased Recycling Cart Proposal Staff negotiated pricing with two cart manufacturers through the HGAC BuyBoard Cooperative Purchasing. The negotiations reflected that Otto Environmental Services could supply the City with the best pricing for recycling carts; with Tennis distributing and managing the carts for the term of the contract. The estimate is based on the purchase of 12,775 carts (595 – 95 gallon, 9,452 – 65 gallon, 2,728 – 32 gallon). Cost for carts is $466,092.80 (including freight and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag installation, not including taxes). Cost of distribution is I2 Council Packet Page Number 126 of 206 $53,016.25 ($4.15 per cart). Total cost of carts and distribution is estimated to cost $553,000 (including taxes). The $100,000 Ramsey County grant award will reduce the City’s initial cart cost to $453,000. The 2014-2015 recycling contract negotiated with Tennis and approved by the City Council on September 9 specifies the following for City-purchased recycling carts: • Two year contract (2014-2015) • Rate: $1.75 per household per month • RFID chips installed in carts • No price adjustors – fuel or CPI increases • Revenue share – 70 percent of tonnage received in carts over tonnage received in bins in 2012. Revenue share for 2014 estimated at $31,372. • Cost to roll out carts is $4.15 per cart ($53,016) • City owns carts The proposal submitted by Tennis on December 3, 2013, includes pricing for an extended contract with the use of City-purchased carts as follows: • Four to five year extension (2016 to 2019 or 2020) • Rate: $2.00 per household per month • No price adjustors – fuel or CPI increases • Revenue share – 70 percent of tonnage received in carts over tonnage received in bins in 2012. Revenue share for 2014 estimated at $31,372. • No cost to roll out carts • City owns carts Cost Analysis of City-Purchased Carts The $100,000 Ramsey County grant will offset the cost of the carts to $453,000 (including carts, freight, assembly and delivery, and taxes). City-purchased carts would be financed with the use of utility bonds amortized over a seven year period. Based on the new pricing proposed and using the number of carts to be purchased (12,775), the City is able to make the following analysis: • Average cost per household per month during seven year contract with City-purchased carts:  $2.54 per household per month (cost does not factor in revenue share over seven years) Tennis Sanitation Recycling Cart Proposals The 2014-2015 recycling contract negotiated with Tennis and approved by the City Council on September 9 specifies the following for contractor-supplied recycling carts: • Four year contract (2014-2017) • Rates:  $2.50 per household per month for the first two years (2014-2015)  $2.75 for the last two years (2015-2017) • No RFID chips installed in carts 2 I2 Council Packet Page Number 127 of 206 • No price adjustors – fuel or CPI increases • No revenue share • Cost to roll out carts - $2.65 per cart ($32,277) • City leases carts, which are returned to Tennis after term of contract On December 3, 2013, Tennis submitted two new proposals for contractor-supplied recycling carts as follows: 1. Six Year Contract (2014-2019) • Rates:  $2.25 per household per month for the first two years (2014-2015)  $2.50 for the last four years (2016-2019) • No RFID chips installed in carts • No price adjustors – fuel or CPI increases • No revenue share • Cost to roll out contractor-supplied carts is $2.65 per cart ($32,277) • City leases carts which are returned to Tennis after term of contract 2. Seven year contract (2014-2020) • Rates:  $2.25 per household per month for the first two years (2014-2015)  $2.50 for the last five years (2017-2020) • RFID chips installed in carts • Tennis will install RFID readers in their trucks • No price adjustors – fuel or CPI increases • No revenue share • Cost to roll out contractor-supplied carts is $4.15 per cart ($53,016) • City leases carts which are returned to Tennis after term of contract Cost Analysis of Contractor-Supplied Carts Based on calculation of the number of carts and amortizing the cost to roll out contractor- supplied carts over either a six or seven year period, the City is able to make the following analysis: Four Year Contract • Average cost per household per month for during four year contract with contractor- supplied recycling carts (no RFID chips or reader):  $2.71 per household per month (this figure is based on an assumption that the $2.75 per household per month would remain in effect until 2019) Six Year Contract • Average cost per household per month during six year contract with contractor-supplied recycling carts (no RFID chips or reader):  $2.46 per household per month 3 I2 Council Packet Page Number 128 of 206 Seven Year Contract • Average cost per household per month during seven year contract with contractor- supplied recycling carts (RFID chips and readers):  $2.48 per household per month Use of RFID Technology Tennis does not use RFID technology in its recycling or trash service currently. With a seven year contract for contractor-supplied or City-purchased carts, Tennis indicates that they are willing to purchase RFID scanners for their trucks and work with the City on implementing the RFID system. An RFID system used in a recycling program can serve as a tool for evaluation, education, and program improvement purposes. Trash Contract The trash hauling contract with Allied Waste/Republic Services will expire on December 2017, with two one year extensions possible (out to 2019). While this should not be the only determining factor in deciding the length of a recycling contract, it is something that should be considered. Having a trash and recycling contract end on the same date would allow the City to coordinate future request for proposals to ensure the best pricing and solid waste management. It would not require that the City contract with one hauler for both services, as there are benefits to having separate contractors for both service if the City has difficulty with one of the contractors, but it would allow better coordination of the two contracts. Benefits of Recycling Cart Roll Out Scenarios City Purchased Recycling Carts 1. Cost Savings a. The hauler’s cost to finance carts is higher than the City’s borrowing rate. b. The City will pay for the carts over 7 years and the carts will last 10 to 20 years. c. The hauler fully depreciates the carts during the contract term (6 to 7 years in the case of Tennis’ contract). d. Maplewood has a Memorandum of Understanding with Otto that will allow us to purchase carts at the 2012 rate. The MOU expires at the end of 2014. The City will never be able to match this price again. e. Maplewood will receive $100,000 from Ramsey County to purchase the carts. f. Maplewood will receive approximately $31,372 in revenue share per year (based on cart pilot project and Foth estimates). 2. Control of Hauler Performance – a. The City is able to terminate a contractor for poor performance without the threat of the contractor removing their carts. b. City-owned carts make it easy to quickly contract with a new hauler. 3. Choice of Cart Appearance and Quality - a. The City, not the hauler, determines what cart is purchased, the color, the markings, and the quality. 4 I2 Council Packet Page Number 129 of 206 4. Control of Subsequent Bids – a. If the current hauler owns the carts they have a significant cost advantage in new bids compared to other bidders who would have to buy all new carts. b. It will be difficult to replace the current hauler in a new bid, regardless of the City’s dissatisfaction with their service. 5. City Branding – a. Having the City’s name/logo imprinted on the cart helps promote the City’s sustainability goals. 6. Lowest Total Cost of Ownership for Future Contracts - a. When required to include carts in its collection bid price, the only incentive to the hauler is to find the cheapest cart available, regardless of cart quality or long term durability. b. The less the hauler pays for the carts, the lower their collection bid price will be or the higher their profit. 7. Innovative Approach to Recycling - a. There are 16 cities in Ramsey County. Nine of those cities collect recycling in a single-sort method. Of those nine cities, Maplewood is the only City that collects single-sort recycling in a bin. b. Ramsey County has awarded the City of Maplewood $100,000 for the purchase of recycling carts because it is an innovative approach to a City’s recycling program. c. The City of Maplewood is in the best position to purchase recycling carts, as we have already gone through the process with the purchase of trash carts. d. Maplewood will again be seen as a leader in this new and innovative approach to the management of solid waste. 8. Interchangeable Parts - a. Otto recycling cart parts will be interchangeable with the City’s trash carts, making maintenance of the carts easier. 9. Environmental Aspect of Owning Carts - a. The carts will be manufactured with 50 percent post consumer waste product. b. The City’s ownership of the carts will ensure that the carts will continue to be used in the City’s recycling program throughout the life of the cart. 10. No Long Term Contracts – a. Contractors are able to offer shorter term contracts if they don’t have to cover the cost of rolling out carts. Contractor-Supplied Recycling Carts 1. Financial Stability - a. City doesn’t have to bond for carts. This is consistent with the City Council’s goal of having financial stability. 2. Less Administration - a. The City does not have to administer and coordinate the purchase of carts. 5 I2 Council Packet Page Number 130 of 206 3. Liability - a. If something happens to the carts the Contractor will pay the cost to repair or replace. 4. RFID Technology - a. Tennis is willing to implement RFID technology with a seven-year contract. 5. Long Term Cart Replacement – a. If the City owns carts, we will need to ensure long term replacement. With contractor-supplied carts, the City can ensure carts are included with each new contract. Resident Feedback The City published a recycling article in the July edition of the City Newsletter. The article gave the results of the recycling cart pilot project and recommended that residents contact the City to offer comment and feedback on the conversion of the City’s recycling program to recycling carts. Since that time the City has received 43 e-mails and telephone calls from residents (Attachment 2). A majority of the residents commenting are supportive of the conversion to recycling carts, even if it means a slight increase in recycling rates. Environmental and Natural Resources Commission Review Staff updated the Environmental and Natural Resources (ENR) Commission on the recycling contract and cart scenarios during their November 18, 2013, meeting. The last time the Commission reviewed the issue was in January during Tennis’ annual review. The update included Tennis’ original cart roll out proposal and the City-supplied recycling cart proposal. The Commission has not had an opportunity to review the December 3 proposal by Tennis. The ENR Commission recommended that the City convert its recycling program to City- purchased recycling carts. The Commission indicated that the financial aspect of City purchased carts makes the most sense economically. They also stated several environmental reasons for City-purchased carts including: 1) The City will be able to collect more recyclables with the increased recycling storage space in the carts; 2) The City can choose its own cart, which will be manufactured with 50 percent post consumer waste product; 3) The City’s ownership of the carts will ensure that the carts will continue to be used in the City’s recycling program throughout the life the cart. Budget Impact The conversion of the City’s recycling program to the collection of recyclables in recycling carts will require an increase in the 2013 recycling rates. Exact amount is dependent on which cart roll out scenario is chosen. Recommendation Consider the conversion of the City’s recycling program to the collection of recyclables in recycling carts as follows: 6 I2 Council Packet Page Number 131 of 206 1. City purchased carts with the Ramsey County Public Entities grant funding $100,000 to offset the cost of the carts. Under this scenario the recycling contract either continues for two years at a cost of $1.75 per household per month; or is extended to 2020 with the cost of the last five years of the contract at $2.00 per household per month. The contract would include revenue share (70 percent cost share for recycling tonnage over that collected with bins in 2012) and RFID technology. The City owns the carts and Tennis or future contractors would store, maintain, and manage the cart inventory. Average cost per household per month under a seven year contract is estimated at $2.54 (cost does not factor in revenue share). 2. Contractor-supplied carts with Tennis Sanitation, LLC, rolling out carts to the City’s residential properties. a. Six Year Contract. Under this scenario a new contract would be approved for six years at a cost of $2.25 per household per month for the first two years (2014- 2015) and $2.50 for the last four years (2016-2019). The contract would not include revenue share or RFID technology. The City leases the carts and they are returned to Tennis after the term of the contract. Average cost per household per month under a six year contract is estimated at $2.46. b. Seven Year Contract. Under this scenario a new contract would be approved for seven years at a cost of $2.25 per household per month for the first two years (2014-2015) and $2.50 for the last five years (2016-2020). The contract would not include revenue share. The contract would include RFID technology. The City leases the carts and they are returned to Tennis after the term of the contract. Average cost per household per month for a seven year contract is estimated at $2.48. Attachments 1. Tennis Sanitation, LLC, December 3, 2013, Recycling Contract Proposal 2.

Thank you for considering our proposal extension Sincerely, Greg and Willie Tennis I2, Attachment 1 Council Packet Page Number 136 of 206 Maplewood Recycling Cart Comments Received from Maplewood Residents July through November 2013 Supportive of Recycling Carts Telephone Calls Received 1. Sharon Boekhoff, 3069 Susan Court North. Even a $1 increase per month would be worth it. If it is a windy day there is junk in the street. I live in a townhome. The cart would take up the same footprint as a bin. Space wise it wouldn’t be a big issue. We’ve talked about it and the pilot project is a no brainer. 2. Janice Johnson, 3089 Chisholm Court North. Had another bin delivered so she could separate recyclables back in the dual sort days. She still sorts to keep the bins more orderly. If the bins are full the bins are heavy to carry. As she gets older that will be a problem. She is good about washing out the bin, but sometimes there is still scent in there and it attracts critters. I don’t like to put the bin out the night before if it is raining. That makes the bin and materials heavier which is harder on the driver. When it is windy things blow down the street. Her brother lives in Minnesota City and they have carts for recycling. It would be much better if the city purchased the carts. We are long overdue. More people will recycle. 3. Chris Hetland, 2587 Flandrau Street. Carts would be good for residents. Residents would find that they would recycle more rather than throw stuff away because there isn’t enough room in the bin. It will reduce litter with the use of the carts. Very beneficial to city residents. Even with a slight increase in recycling rates if it is a few more dollars. Living in a different city prior to Maplewood they had carts, and now they are back to bins. He thought most cities have graduated to carts. Also, glad the City streamlined garbage. 4. Dave Arnold, 570 Marnie Street. Has three red bins. If there is any type of wind everything gets blown away. I am willing to pay extra for the carts. When will we see the new carts. City purchase carts seems to make the most sense. Pleased to pay the $.75 per month. 5. Kathy Melander, 458 South Sterling Street. Husband was volunteer fire fighter. Would love to have the covered carts. She spends every single Friday picking up all of the recyclables that blew away from neighbor’s bins. She has adopted a park – Vista Hills. If people had more capacity and if it was covered it would not be flying all over. Her children live in Cottage Grove and they have carts and love it. Our neighborhood would be very supportive. Supportive of increase in rates to cover cost of carts. It is nice to have one truck now with the new trash system. We are saving money. 6. Matt Ledvina, 1173 Lakewood Drive South. Cars would be more sanitary and allow more capacity for recyclables. When your bin is overflowing – some people trash the materials. Neighborhood 1 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 137 of 206 cleanliness. Even with slight increase in rates. With our substantial decrease in trash service, willing to pay slight extra for a higher level of recycling. Storage issues could be a problem. 7. Jack Flarherty, 735 Mary Street North. Wouldn’t mind Maplewood purchasing recycling carts or any carts for that matter. It would reduce litter. We are stuck with these stupid little bins. I don’t recycle that much because the material blows away. You can only fit some recyclables in the bins. I do support the carts, but think the City should eat the 75 cents. 8. Dean Simonet. Lived in North St. Paul and appreciated when they switched to the carts because it is easier to wheel to the curb and things don’t blow away. With the city owning carts it would be a better deal. Nobody likes an increase in their bill. 9. Sue Ogren and Naomi Anderson. Supportive of carts. They are easier to move. 10. Charles Deitz, 1775 Clarence Street. Carts can become a problem delivering the mail. Automated arms have a problem. Use of carts is a good idea. A good wind picks up and it causes litter. I would not have anything more than I currently do. I like the idea of one trash company going up and down the street. So does his cat – who hates trash trucks. It worked better. 11. Janice Hoppe, 1675 County Road C. Janice purchased her own wheeled cart. She had called Tennis prior to the purchase and they said they would pick up recyclables in that cart. Her cart prevents the recyclables from blowing away on windy days, keeps items dry. The City should switch to carts. Voicemails Received 12. Jill Clark, Minnehaha. All for carts. Now that we don’t sort there is not enough room in the bins. The material blows out and gets wet. 13. Pat Martnuchi (sp?), 1570 Sterling Street. Had carts in North St. Paul and loved them. Hopeful Maplewood supplies its resident’s carts. 14. Danielle Laraser (sp?). The recycling bins stink. The city needs to get carts. My bin is cracked and broken. I have so much recycling I have to place some in bags at the curb. It is hard for seniors to get the bins to the curb. Carts would be easier to roll to the curb. More people would recycle if we had carts. 15. Marlene Mayor. In support of carts. Need to get rid of the bins. You have my vote. 16. Kathy Engel, 444 Marnie. It is about time the city switches to recycling carts. We have so much recycling there is not enough room in the bins. It is a real hassle. E-mails Received 17. Jared Savela, 1116 County Road C East. I just read in the Maplewood monthly about a recycling cart pilot program that has been going on for the past year. I am thrilled to find out that this may become a city wide program. Almost every week, our recycling tote gets full a few days before the 2 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 138 of 206 recycling is taken away. Once it gets full, we just throw away any additional recyclable products because it is too much of a hassle to try to stack it nearly or find other boxes/bags to put it in. When the tote is very full, it is more difficult to bring it down to the street for collection. I strongly support the use of recycling carts in Maplewood. 18. Dale and Alice Jo Carlson, 1513 Gervais Avenue. We would love to have recycling carts instead of bins. We have two bins and they are overflowing every week. If it's windy, there are recycled materials all over the neighborhood. If there was a 37% increase in the test area, think of what that would mean city-wide. Please expand the program to include the whole city! 19. Veronica Vail. I’d just like to share that I think implementing the recycling carts would be an excellent change. I’ve only lived in Maplewood for 2 years now but previously I lived in Vadnais Heights and they switched to the carts several years ago. When I lived out there we would completely fill our recycling cart and our trash bin would be only half full. So many people waste items that could be recycled due to the lack of space in the smaller recycling bins (me included). Our recycling bin is usually overflowing. Having the carts would in my opinion be a great success for Maplewood. 20. John P. Krebsbach, 1917 Furness Street. I read the article, "Recycling Cart Pilot Project a Success!" in the current issue of Maplewood Monthly. I strongly encourage the City to convert to the 65 gallon recycling carts for all residents. We recently moved from Saint Paul Park where we used Tennis Sanitation's 65 gallon carts for a number of years. It is a much more convenient and effective way to recycle! Thank you for your consideration. 21. Dave Klepperich, 756 Belmont Lane East. I was just flipping through the Maplewood Monthly newsletter for August and saw the story on the recycle cart study on page 3. We just moved into the City of Maplewood from Little Canada about 18 months ago. We had recycling carts in the area where we used to live. While I wholeheartedly support recycling in any form, I can tell you the cart is one of the things I miss the most – for exactly all of the reasons cited in the article. We had a 32- gallon cart for recyclables, but it was generally more than we needed for a three-person family…plus the footprint in the garage was almost exactly the same as the bin that had preceded it. If you should ever need additional volunteers to test carts, our family has our collective hand eagerly raised. Thank you for the study and publishing the results! We look forward to the possibility of recycling carts in the (hopefully near) future! 22. Claudia and Dick Baldwin, 929 Connor Avenue East. Just to let you know, my husband and I would greatly appreciate having recycling carts. We always have far more recycling than garbage and usually have to make two or even three trips to the curb with our recycling bins on recycling day. We would very much support switching to carts!! 23. Annette Huot-Link. I am writing to add my opinion of the cart vs. bin discussion for Maplewood. I would love to see Maplewood switch over to carts. The bins are messy, hard to carry, and never fit all the recycling we have. Every household should have as much recycling as trash because so much is now recyclable. That means we need bigger recycling units to hold all our recyclables. My only 3 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 139 of 206 question is why is the 65 gallon cart the only size being considered? I would prefer the smaller, 35 gallon, cart. This allows for more room for recycling and the other benefits of a cart over a bin, but does not take up so much space in our garage. Thanks for your work with this project and change for the better!! 24. Matthew Marek. I read about the recycling carts it the Maplewood monthly newsletter and think they are a great idea. We have two recycling bins, and will often fill up both. A cart is a great idea. Plus, how can you argue with the increased recycling rates!? 25. Debbie Kruse, 2680 New Century Place East. I received my Maplewood Monthly today and read the story about the recycling cart pilot project. I remember seeing the 65 gallon carts in some of the Maplewood neighborhoods. I live on New Century Pl E in the southern end of Maplewood, near Woodbury. I would like to see the recycling carts in our area. On more than one occasion I have seen the recycling bins tip in the wind, and everything is all over our street. I needed to chase some of our trash, just last week. We have 2 bins some weeks because of size and we do have a lot of recyclables. I do hope to see the 65 gallon recycling carts available to families that need them, throughout the city of Maplewood. 26. Jennifer & Tim Buechele, 2428 Oakridge Lane East. As residents of Maplewood for the last 4 years, I would like to voice our support and excitement for the proposal to change to recycling carts in Maplewood. Since my husband and I have moved in our biggest issue with the recycling program in Maplewood was the fact that we had to use the small bins rather than larger carts. We frequently do not have enough room in our bin to include all the recycling that we have for one week. Changing to bins would make it much more convenient and easier to store our recycling as well as provide much more room. I hope that residents of Maplewood could at least have the option of having a cart over the current bins, if the decision is not made to move to the carts completely. 27. Diane Swenson. We have used these in Arizona and really liked them. There is no rain on your recycling and the wind doesn't blow paper all over the neighborhood. Love then. 28. Hannah Peterson. I saw the article in the Maplewood Monthly newsletter about the recent recycling cart pilot. I think it is a great idea and my family is all for switching to carts. 29. Michelle and Scott Creer, 2563 Haller Lane East. We are extremely excited to hear that the Recycling Cart Pilot Project was a success for the households participating. We hope that this program can be implemented throughout the city of Maplewood. We are avid recyclers, and our 18-gallon bin is always overflowing. We continually struggle to find space for all of our recyclables and to prevent them from blowing into the yard. We think this cart would be very beneficial for all residents in many ways: 4 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 140 of 206 a. It would increase participation in recycling. As the pilot project results showed, this cart increases resident's participation in recycling by 37 percent. b. It will keep our streets looking nice on recycling day, because it will keep the recyclables out of sight and contained within a closed cart. Currently, our streets look cluttered with all of the boxes, bins, and paper bags on the side of the curb. c. It will prevent litter from being deposited in our yards and neighborhoods on stormy/windy days. We truly hope City Council will push for the use of these carts throughout Maplewood. We fully support this initiative. Thank you. 30. Mike and Stacie Hafner. My wife and I are looking forward to the possibility that Maplewood will be changing direction with the recycle containers. We put our red crate out every Tuesday and anticipate a rolling cart will be easier to handle. This is certainly premature, but if the city takes the next step, do you think there will be any chance of multiple sizes, similar to our trash container? 31. Kurt Thompson, 1821 Manton Street. Hello! I'm writing to respond to the recent write up in the Maplewood city news letter concerning the recycling cart pilot project. I'd like to add my two cents if I may. My family was not part of the project but would whole heartily like to see it implemented in the city of Maplewood! As of now our family puts out at least 3-4 recycling containers each week and they are usually very full if not overflowing. I believe if we would have one of those rolling 65 gallon carts if would be a lot easier and more beneficial to our needs. I have noticed that in our neighborhood we have an average of 2 containers per household. I just thought I would give you my take on this situation. Thanks for the great work you and the city does for its citizens! 32. Cindy LaVan (and husband), 2321 Dahl Ave. Was just reading the Maplewood Monthly today and saw the information regarding recycling carts vs. bins for Maplewood residents. As a resident, I wholeheartedly support the plan. We recycle a lot, and have to haul out at least two bins every week. We would LOVE to have a roll-to-the curb cart, and also feel it would be better for the drivers, workers, who have to physically throw everything into the trucks now. Our only question is, will carts mean fewer jobs since the truck will now probably be able to lift everything as the garbage trucks currently do? Thank you for considering our opinion and for any answer to our question you can provide 33. Claire Terrones. I just wanted to voice my thoughts on how great it would be to have cart recycling! I live on McKnight Rd and so often the cars go by fast and blow the recycling right out of my bin with a gust of wind. We got sick of picking our recycling up out of the yard, so we purchased a rolling 5 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 141 of 206 trash bin from the store... so wonderful! I can wheel everything down in one trip and we recycle so much more (with the red bins once it was full, I often just started throwing stuff in the trash). Hope the city moves forward with recycling carts for all. 34. John Linc Stine, 1398 Myrtle St N. I am writing to express my support for expanding the use of recycling carts. My household weekly waste volume is consistently 25-50% less than my weekly recycling volume and I am on the smallest waste receptacle available. I agree with comments expressing the benefits of recycling cart use that I read in the August 2013 City of Maplewood newsletter article about the pilot program. You have my support and I would willingly pay for this service, which I believe would increase recycling citywide, reduce nuisance concerns, and improve my handling of recyclables. 35. Pat Tressman, 2427 Barclay Street. I am wondering where the City is in its consideration to supply recycling carts to all residents of Maplewood. I am located in the area that was not part of the pilot project. However, I know several of my friends who live on the west side of highway 61 and rave about the ease of wheeling their recycling carts to the curb. Since I am still carrying my bins back and forth from the garage to the curb, I can see how a cart makes recycling more convenient. There's a cost associated with carts, I am sure, which must be considered. But can you give me any indication if there's a plan to go forward on this? Or is it still under study? What is the status? 36. Tom Kinning. We think a cart recycling program would be a great idea. As it is now we put out multiple totes and bins including paper grocery bags filled with newspapers. Most weeks the recycling bins are to the point of overflowing. When the weather happens to rain or is windy it can be a deterrent to put out our recyclables. A cart would eliminate the fear of our recyclables flying all over the neighborhood. 37. Andy Nordquist, 2474 Timber Court East saw the little write up on the recycling cart pilot project and the request for comments. I'd like to share mine. We move to Maplewood from South St Paul just about 3 years ago. In SSP, we had large recycling carts (I think maybe the 90 gallon) that were collected every two weeks. I was shocked when we came to Maplewood to see small bins, collected weekly. For me there are a couple issues that the bins create: a) Open to elements. If windy, you can bet there are milk cartons/pop cans/etc blowing out of the bins and into the neighbors yard/down the street. It looks bad, is bad and if for no other reason, I would hope this could be the stimulus for the use of carts. b) Size. I can hardly fit a week’s worth of recycling for a family of 5 into the bin. We try to recycle as much as possible and some days I end up choosing to not recycle because of lack of space. c) Weekly recycling. We moved into the city at a time where there was the trash debate and the desire to limit the number of big trucks on the streets and that whole debate. I am uneducated on the topic and it is only a guess, but I would have to think that an every-other week recycling 6 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 142 of 206 schedule would help reduce wear on the streets, gas usage, noise pollution. As someone who was opposed to the idea of the city taking over my choice of garbage haulers, I accepted the idea since it is the better plan for our environment. I would have to assume the city would make the same type of choice for the recycling program. Having a cart at my previous home, I've never thought about the negatives on the program. I'm assuming things like storage of the carts (they take up more space), cost of providing carts are factors. But for me, to drive down the street and see two carts sitting next to each other, waiting to be collected, rather than one trash cart and an over flowing bin of paper, milk containers and cans, half of which is out in the street, would be a much better view. 38.

I am located in the area that was not part of the pilot project.

There's a cost associated with carts, I am sure, which must be considered. But can you give me any indication if there's a plan to go forward on this? Or is it still under study? What is the status? 39. Richard Erwin, 2075 Edgerton Street. We have outgrown our red tote for recycling some time ago and have been putting any overflow recycle in the trash bin. It does not make any sense to me to have to do this and we could virtually eliminate the trash cart altogether if we had a recycle cart large enough to suit our needs. What plans have been implemented to supply residents with the proper recycling containers so that we don't have to continue putting recyclables in the trash? 40. John O'Phelan, Stillwater Road East. I wanted to share my support with the City of Maplewood in regards to implementing large wheeled recycling containers. Throughout the metro area it seems as if everyone but Maplewood and Saint Paul are left without a better system that allows us the opportunity to recycle more and make it easier. In other words, the decision to hesitate on this issue should not even be considered. If the city council is considering the cost effectiveness, my argument would be that either way it will need to happen at one point and the longer we wait the more expensive the cost will be. Besides that, with Maplewood's own study proving the effectiveness of more recycling and less landfill should be obvious enough that we need to move ahead with the new plan. As a resident of Maplewood I have watched many of my neighbors carry out 2-3 of your containers on garbage day. Personally our family fills our own large wheeled container. At this point it has lost its wheels and I have it duct taped together. We are waiting for a positive vote from city council so we don't need to invest in a container that we may not need within just a few months. 7 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 143 of 206 Thank you so much for working on this project. If you would like more Maplewood support and/or a petition that the residents could sign and/or an online survey I would be willing to help. Not Supportive of Recycling Carts Telephone Calls Received 1. Charles Rohrbach, 2048 Duluth Street. Not in favor because of the number of carts sitting around. Right now the garbage cart is in garage. I don’t recycle enough to fill a cart. A cart for me would be useless. We don’t fill the bin. A lot of the people don’t fill the bin. It is convenient now not to sort. I currently place my bin under the picnic table. Some people don’t recycle at all. Keep Tennis for two years with the bins. Tennis is doing a good job. You should do a study to see how many people really need a cart. There could be some push back from residents. In the winter time when people have to pull out the carts in the snow it will be difficult. 2. Claudette Leonard, 2627 Duluth Street. We only have a 30 gallon trash cart. There are only two of us. We have small garages. We don’t have any room to store a trash container. We take responsibility so nothing blows around. Do they have bins with covers? When they put 65 gallon how. Size of the cart. Where do you expect people to put this? Twin home. Do not want the city supplied carts because they would buy them. Voicemail Received 3. Suzanne Stolte (sp?), 2528 Schaller Drive. Adamantly opposed to carts. All of my neighbor’s trash carts are stored outside of their garage. With an additional cart there will be more carts left outside. The codes aren’t enforced now. There are just two of us at my house. We don’t recycle that much. If we do get carts I will start storing my cart outside also and I will start hiding recyclables in my trash cart. 8 I2, Attachment 2 Council Packet Page Number 144 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: Charles Ahl, City Manager FROM: Michael Martin, AICP, Planner Melinda Coleman, Assistant City Manger DATE: December 3, 2013 SUBJECT: Approval of Transfer of City-Owned Real Property Between City and EDA, Castle Avenue and Van Dyke Street a. Approval of Transfer Introduction The city has received a purchase offer for property it has been marketing for sale. The property is located on the southeast corner of Castle Avenue and Van Dyke Street. Refer to the attached maps. This property has 135.38 feet of frontage and 296.68 feet of lot depth for an area of .92 acres. It is currently zoned R1 (single dwelling residential) and guided LDR (low density residential) in the comprehensive plan. Discussion Excess Land The city acquired this parcel through a private transaction in 1974 for right-of-way or utility purposes. A portion of this parcel was utilized to build the roundabout at the Castle Avenue and Van Dyke Street intersection. The rest of this parcel is not needed for any additional right-of- way purposes. The city has run an ownership and encumbrance report and there are no restrictions against the property which would limit any potential sale. Since this parcel does not have any deed restrictions and is not needed by the city for any additional public functions, staff is recommending the city deem the parcel in excess and move forward with selling the property. Transfer of Land The intention is to use the proceeds from any sale of this property for future economic development pursuits. So to move forward the City of Maplewood must transfer ownership of this land to the city’s economic development authority (EDA) who would officially sell the land to an outside group. The city hired Mike Brass, a real estate agent with Colliers International, to represent the city and market this parcel. The city has received a purchase agreement for this property from a development group that would intend to develop this site with a commercial use. The property is zoned and guided by the city’s comprehensive plan for single family residential use. Any purchase of the property for a commercial use would be contingent on the buyer submitting land use applications to zone and guide the land appropriately. J1 Council Packet Page Number 145 of 206 Commission Review Housing and Economic Development Commission The city’s housing and economic development commission reviewed this proposal at its meeting on September 11, 2013 and recommended the city council and EDA move forward with the approval of the purchase agreement. Planning Commission The city’s planning commission reviewed this proposal at its meeting on September 17, 2013 and determined this property was in excess and currently in compliance with the city’s comprehensive plan. The planning commission recommended the city council and EDA move forward with the purchase agreement which is contingent on the buyer applying for and seeking approval of any land use amendments. Budget Impact The execution of land transfer will have no impact on any budgets itself. If this property is sold, all proceeds would be deposited in the EDA’s redevelopment fund. Recommendation Approve the transfer of real property located on the southeast corner of Castle Avenue and Van Dyke Street from the city of Maplewood to the Maplewood Area Economic Development Authority for the property. This approval authorizes the city manager and city attorney to legally transfer ownership of the property. Attachment 1. Land Use Plan Map 2. Zoning Map 3. Aerial Photo 4. Survey Drawing 5.

J1, Attachment 6 Council Packet Page Number 152 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: Charles Ahl, City Manager FROM: Tom Ekstrand, Senior Planner Melinda Coleman, Assistant City Manager DATE: December 2, 2013 SUBJECT: Approval of a Conditional Use Permit Revision and Design Plans for Agropur, 2080 Rice Street Introduction Dick Behling, of Agropur (formerly Schroeder Milk), located at 2080 Rice Street, is requesting approval to build a 3,540-square-foot building addition onto the back of the facility. The proposed addition would be a tank-room addition needed to replace milk product tanks for their milk processing operation. Refer to the attachments. Mr. Behling is requesting approval of a conditional use permit (CUP) revision and approval of design plans for the proposed addition. City ordinance requires a CUP for “processing and distribution stations for beverages.” Background June 27, 1994: The city council granted a CUP for Schroeder Milk to expand the facility. June 28, 1999: The city council approved a CUP revision for a three-phase facility expansion project. The council also approved design plans and tax increment financing. The CUP revision was subject to: 1. All construction shall follow the site plan approved by the city. The director of community development may approve minor changes. 2. The proposed construction must be substantially started within one year of council approval or the permit shall become null and void. The council may extend this deadline for one year. 3. The city council shall review this permit in one year. 4. If the city council determines there is not enough on-site parking, the council, may require that the property owner provide additional parking. April 28, 2003: The city council approved the vacation of an unneeded water main easement within the applicant’s property. J2 Council Packet Page Number 153 of 206 Discussion Building Design and Parking Staff does not see any problem with the proposed addition. It will match the exterior of the existing building and will not be visible from the street. The site is large and there is sufficient parking on the site for the applicant’s needs, therefore, parking is not an issue. Also, there are no new employees to be hired because of the proposed addition. Landscaping There will be no affect on landscaping since the proposed addition does not involve any alteration to the existing planted areas. Also, the proposed addition will not be visible from the street or any neighboring views to warrant additional landscaping. Engineer’s Report Jon Jarosch, staff engineer, has the following comments:  The plans look fine from our end.  A grading/erosion control permit will be required.  There may be SAC, sewer availability charges, associated with the proposed addition. The engineering staff will determine this. Assistant Fire Chief and Building Official Comments The applicant must meet all applicable building codes and provide fire protection according to all applicable codes as well. Police Comments Chief Paul Schnell commented that there were no obvious police issues with this proposed project. CUP Findings for Approval The zoning ordinance requires that the city council find that all nine “standards” for CUP approval be met to allow a CUP. In short, these state that the use would (refer to the resolution for the complete wording):  Comply with the city’s comprehensive plan and zoning code.  Maintain the existing or planned character of the neighborhood.  Not depreciate property values.  Not cause any disturbance or nuisance.  Not cause excessive traffic.  Be served by adequate public facilities and police/fire protection.  Not create excessive additional costs for public services.  Maximize and preserve the site’s natural and scenic features. J2 Council Packet Page Number 154 of 206  Not cause adverse environmental effects. The proposed tank room addition would meet the above criteria and would not create any negative issues or concerns. Commission Actions November 19, 2013: The planning commission recommended approval of the proposed CUP revision. November 26, 2013: The community design review board recommended approval of the design plans. Budget Impact None. Recommendation A. Adoption of the resolution amending the conditional use permit for Agropur (formerly the Schroeder Milk site), located at 2080 Rice Street for their proposed 3,540-square-foot building addition.

J2, Attachment 10 Council Packet Page Number 170 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: Charles Ahl, City Manager FROM: Tom Ekstrand, Senior Planner Melinda Coleman, Assistant City Manager DATE: December 2, 2013 SUBJECT: Approval of a Parking Reduction for Maplebrook Pet Care Center, 2811 White Bear Avenue Introduction Dr. Kristina Andrusko-Bipes, of the Maplebrook Pet Care Center, 2811 White Bear Avenue, is requesting that the city council approve a parking reduction. She would like to remove two parking spaces and install a rain water garden in this location. The applicant feels they do not need these spaces for their clinic’s parking needs and the rain water garden will resolve an erosion problem. She is working with the Watershed District on this project. Refer to the attached letter drawings from the applicant. Background June 12, 1995: The city council approved the plans for this building and site, then the Maplewood Pet Center, another owner. The council also approved a parking reduction waiver to allow 18 parking spaces rather than 25 spaces which code required. The developer was required to provide proof-of-parking for seven additional spaces. Discussion The city council had required 18 parking spaces. Over time, this number has reduced to 17. Because the site already has one space less than the city council originally required, the applicant is essentially requesting a reduction of three more parking spaces. There is not room for any proof-of-parking spaces due to the grade on the site. The building and parking lot are on high ground. The rest of the site drops to low ground on the south. Staff agrees that the veterinarian clinic can function with 15 parking stalls; therefore, the loss of two more spaces would not be a problem for them. The problem is that, with no room available on site for additional parking spaces to be added, the site may end up with a parking shortage for a future business. J3 Council Packet Page Number 171 of 206 Staff feels, though, that it is worth the minimal risk of a possible parking shortage by assisting the applicant to improve the drainage on their site. Rain water gardens serve not just as a means to control runoff but are very attractive landscaped elements that enhance a property. Staff’s suggestion is to allow the parking reduction to 15 spaces, but should a parking shortage develop in the future, the applicant or future owner, may be required to attain the right to park on the abutting parking lot to the south (subject to that property owner’s approval) or restore the proposed rain water garden back to two parking spaces. Trash Enclosure Required Staff observed that the pet care center did not have a trash enclosure for the two dumpsters they had. To comply with city ordinance, the applicant needs to provide a trash enclosure as code requires. This is required by code whether they proceed with the rain water garden project or not. Commission Actions November 26, 2013: The community design review board recommended approval of the proposed parking reduction with the staff recommendation. Budget Impact None. Recommendation Approve the parking reduction to allow 15 parking spaces at the Maplebrook Pet Care Center, located at 2811 White Bear Avenue. This parking reduction is based on the following reasons: 1. The pet care center does not need more than the proposed 15 parking spaces for their staff and customers. 2. By reducing the number of parking spaces to 15, the property owner can resolve an erosion problem by installing a rain water garden in the parking lot. If a parking shortage develops, the property owner shall restore parking to the area planned for the new rain water garden or seek to use parking from an adjacent or nearby parking lot. J3 Council Packet Page Number 172 of 206 3. The property owner shall construct a trash enclosure to contain and conceal their two dumpsters as required by city code. The property owner shall work with staff for approval of the design which must be compatible with the building and must have a closeable gate which also conceals the dumpsters.

DESIGN REVIEW a. Approval of a Parking Reduction for Maplebrook Pet Care Center, 2811 White Bear Avenue i. Planner, Mike Martin gave the report and answered questions of the board. Boardmember Shankar moved to approve the parking reduction to allow 15 parking spaces at the Maplebrook Pet Care Center, located at 2811 White Bear Avenue. This parking reduction is based on the following reasons: 1. The pet care center does not need more than the proposed 15 parking spaces for their staff and customers. 2. By reducing the number of parking spaces to 15, the property owner can resolve an erosion problem by installing a rain water garden in the parking lot. If a parking shortage develops, the property owner shall restore parking to the area planned for the new rain water garden or seek to use parking from an adjacent or nearby parking lot. 3. The property owner shall construct a trash enclosure to contain and conceal their two dumpsters as required by city code. The property owner shall work with staff for approval of the design which must be compatible with the building and must have a closeable gate which also conceals the dumpsters. The trash enclosure shall be constructed even if the rain water garden project does not take place. The trash enclosure shall be constructed by May 30, 2014. Seconded by Boardmember Kempe. Ayes – All The motion passed.

Background Bids were received from Lillie Newspaper and Nystrom Publishing Company and were opened on November 25, 2013. Both bidders submitted their bids on the tally sheets provided in the bid package. See Attachment 1 and Attachment 2. Subsequent to staff opening and recording the amounts listed on the tally sheets at the bid opening, staff received an email from Paul Mock (see Attachment 3) representing Lillie Newspaper requesting that a lower bid amount of $404,289 be recorded. This amount was submitted in the bid package as a “high” “low” bid (see Attachment 3). The RFP did not request a “high” “low” bid, so the amount recorded was what Lillie News submitted on the tally sheet that was provided. Council Packet Page Number 183 of 206 K1 The bids amounts received follow: Nystrom Publishing Company, Inc. $350,388.30 Lillie Newspaper $441,289.00 If the council were to consider the request as suggested in the email from Mr. Mock, the Lillie Newspaper bid would be $404,289. A Print Bid Addendum (see Attachment 4) was submitted by Lillie News. This was not requested as part of the RFP process. Budget Impact City publications are a directive of the City Council.

Council Packet Page Number 197 of 206 MEMORANDUM TO: Chuck Ahl, City Manager FROM: Shann Finwall, AICP, Environmental Planner DATE: December 3, 2014 SUBJECT: 2013 Sustainability Report Introduction Sustainability is described as meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Local governments are in a unique position to implement and influence sustainability by the policies they set, by the approaches they use in city operations, and by the promotion of sustainability through city-wide education. For this reason, local governments should lead by example. Over the years Maplewood has made strides toward leadership in sustainability through various programs and educational opportunities that reduce emissions and pollution. Maplewood does this by promoting recycling, implementing stormwater best management practices in developments and street projects, practicing sustainable City operations, and offering environmental programming at the Maplewood Nature Center, to name a few. Another important aspect of sustainability is setting and reporting on sustainability goals. The City has a number of methods for setting goals including Comprehensive Planning, Capital Improvement Plans, Budgets, Council Retreats, and Commission Goal Setting. The Annual Sustainability Report allows the City to report on the progress of those goals. Discussion Environmental and Natural Resources Commission The Environmental and Natural Resources Commission is charged with developing and promoting sustainable practices for City policies and procedures. In 2013 the Commission worked on the following environmental issues: 1. Environmental Assessment Worksheet for the Proposed 3M Research and Development Building 2. Annual Review of the Maplewood Residential Recycling Program 3. Review of the Arkwright-Sunrise Area Street Improvements 4. Wetland and Shoreland Ordinance Variance Requests for a Swimming Pool – 660 Eldridge Avenue East 5. Annual Review of the Maplewood Trash Program 6. Regional Indicators Initiative 7.

Maplewood Recycling Program – Recycling Contract and Recycling Carts Minnesota Green Step Cities Overview of Program GreenStep Cities is an assistance program for all Minnesota cities that supports and recognizes implementation of 28 sustainable development best practices. The best practices focus on cost savings and energy use reductions that lead cities beyond compliance and encourage a culture of innovation. Cities that implement a minimum number of best practices will be recognized as a GreenStep City. Best practices are organized into five categories including buildings and lighting, land use, transportation, environmental management, economic and community development. Maplewood Participation The City of Maplewood has been participating in the Minnesota GreenStep Cities program since December 2010. There are currently 57 other cities participating in the program. GreenStep City Awards The program outlines four “Steps” of recognition: Step One – pass a resolution authorizing the city to participate in the program, register, and provide details of best practices accomplished; Step Two – implement at least 8 best practices; Step Three – implement at least 16 best practices; Step Four – this recognition step is still being refined by the GreenStep Cities steering committee but is said to add benchmarking requirements to better track sustainability goals. During the June League of Minnesota Cities Conference, the City of Maplewood had the honor of being recognized as a Step Three Minnesota GreenStep City for completing 22 of the 28 sustainability best practices. The City will continue to work toward implementing and updating best practices in 2014. Milestone – Living Streets Policy The GreenStep Cities advisors awarded Maplewood three stars for the implementation of best practice #11 – Complete Green Streets. The Maplewood Living Streets Policy, adopted in January 2013, is an approach to street design that strives to balance functional elements 2 M2 Council Packet Page Number 199 of 206 (pavement, vehicles, utilities) with sustainable/green elements (pedestrians, bicycles, stormwater quality, landscaping), and the needs of the neighborhood and community. Living Streets considers all factors of a project and develops the most appropriate solution for the neighborhood and community as a whole. The goals of Living Streets in Maplewood are to: raise the quality of stormwater, calm traffic, enhance walking and biking conditions, promote the urban forest, ensure cost-effectiveness and practicality, and improve aesthetics. In 2012 the Bartelmy-Meyer street improvement project was the first project constructed under the Living Streets guidelines. The project included: • reconstruction of two miles of residential roads, • a reduction in road width from 30 feet to 24 feet, • pavement reduced by 1 acre, • 34 rain gardens and 1 regional filtration basin (approx. 19,000 s.f.) • 3 miles of draintile pipes • 200 street trees installed – 6 species • 1.5 miles of sidewalks • overall project captures the first 1 inch of runoff from 5.5 acres of impervious surfaces The City of Maplewood is currently working on the design of the second Living Streets project scheduled to be constructed in 2014. This project will apply Living Streets design concepts to both the Arkwright-Sunrise neighborhood and to County Road B, between Interstate 35E and Edgerton Street. Green Building Code On September 23, 2013, the Maplewood City Council adopted the Maplewood Green Building Code. The goal of the code is to safeguard the environment, public health, safety and general welfare through the establishment of requirements to reduce the negative impacts and increase the positive impacts of the built environment on the natural environment and building occupants. The code will be mandatory for all City-financed buildings and can be used as a model for private buildings. Maplewood was the first City in the country to adopt a Green Building Code based on the 2012 International Green Construction Code (IgCC). Natural Resources Maplewood made progress on several natural resources projects in 2013. City staff and its partners will meet a milestone in December and close on the 70-acre Fish Creek parcel. Our partner Great River Greening led tree planting and buckthorn removal projects at the site, including a successful buckthorn hauling event with over 120 volunteers. Buckthorn removal was also done at the Maplewood Nature Center, Joy Park, and Vista Hills Park. The Public Works department picked up 35 cubic yards of buckthorn from residents that signed up for Maplewood’s annual buckthorn curbside pickup. A contractor began the prairie restoration at Gladstone Savanna, work which will continue into 2014. Citizen monitoring programs continued including the Invasive Plant Patrol, Frog Monitoring, and Neighborhood Preserve Monitoring. Deer hunts were conducted on four City-owned sites in conjunction with the county and Metro Bow Hunters Resource Base. The City continues to meet requirements to maintain its status as a Tree City USA. 3 M2 Council Packet Page Number 200 of 206 Environmental Recognition American Public Works Association – 2013 Sustainability Practices Award The American Public Works Association acknowledged the City’s leadership in sustainability by awarding Maplewood the 2013 National Sustainability Practices Award. This prestigious national award recognizes Maplewood’s contributions to promoting sustainability City-wide through planning, infrastructure investment, design standards, education, and daily operations in an environmentally and socially responsible way. During the award it was noted that Maplewood’s ability to influence change and lead a sustainable approach to infrastructure replacement and operations is driven by a culture that has become ingrained into Maplewood’s identity. The success is the result of support from all levels of the community including elected officials, management, staff, and citizens. Ramsey-Washington Metro Watershed District - Innovation in Government Award The City of Maplewood was selected by the Ramsey-Washington Metro Watershed District to receive the first ever “Innovation in Government” Award. The award recognizes the implementation of the Living Streets Project in 2012 in the Bartelmy-Meyer neighborhood and the adoption of the City’s Living Streets Policy in 2013. The Living Streets design concept revolve around the of narrowing roads, slowing traffic, adding boulevard trees, installing rain gardens, and constructing sidewalks/trails to improve safety of pedestrians and bicyclists. The City is one of the first cities in Minnesota to adopt a Living Streets policy and to implement a Living Streets project. Green Team The Green Team is made up of a group of staff who work together on environmental and sustainability issues at a City operation level. The Green Team acts as the steering committee for the GreenStep Cities program. In addition to working on sustainable City operations, the Green Team is focusing on department challenges in 2013. [Green Brackets] is the name of this challenge and it is designed to involve all employees in the City’s sustainability efforts. Each department chose a sustainability goal that will reduce energy and/or reduce waste in City operations. The goal should be: • Realistic: The intent is to have achieved our goals by the end of November 2013. The goals need to be something realistic that can be achieved in that timeline. • Specific: The goal should be specific and involve an effort or awareness from all employees. • Measurable: To ensure success of a goal, it needs to be measurable. Department challenges are outlined in the attached Green Brackets Report (Attachment 1). Sustainable City Operations Sustainable City operations include the act of planning and carrying out the City’s day-to-day work with full consideration of how environmental factors affect long-term goals. It means eliminating waste, lowering long-term maintenance and operating costs, and improving the work 4 M2 Council Packet Page Number 201 of 206 environment and the community. It also translates into good economic sense. Following are a few examples of the City’s ongoing efforts to create more sustainable City operations. Fleet Management The City has updated the Mangers Plus and Phoenix software systems to better utilize capabilities and communicate. We also continue to right-size the fleet. These changes have translated into planned reduction in diesel and gas quantity purchases for 2014 as the older, more inefficient vehicles are retired along with underutilized vehicles. The software system is also able to interpret when vehicles may not be running at full efficiency, sending a red flag that service is needed. Stormwater In 2013 the City partnered with Ramsey-Washington Metro Watershed District to create a holistic pond dredging plan district-wide. In 2014, the pond located on the City Hall Campus (Wicklander Pond) will be dredged. This will help address water quality for the downstream impaired water body (Wakefield). Preliminary testing shows about 7,000 cubic-yards may need to be scraped off the bottom of the pond, leaving the water capacity and quality restored it its original design conditions. The watershed district is covering the cost of the design and inspection, with the City covering the construction costs. GIS Mapping System Throughout 2013 the Public Works and IT Departments have been working together to grow and improve the City’s GIS mapping system. The goal of this project is to improve accessibility to the City’s GIS mapping through computers and mobile devices. This will decrease the dependency on paper maps and the need to print paper record drawings. Additionally, the efficiency of City employees will be increased by having instant access to this information in the field and alleviating the need to drive back to the City for access. Education Nature Center The Nature Center’s mission is to enhance awareness and understanding of land, water, and wildlife resources; to empower the community to become stewards of the environment. The naturalists at the Maplewood Nature Center offer environmental education programming throughout the year. Programs are designed for adults and family education, as well as school groups, preschools, scouts, and birthday parties. Service learning, such as planting many of the City’s large rain gardens, is an important component of many of the programs. The Nature Center is also a resource. Visitors can access the nature library to identify a bird, or browse through the interactive exhibits and informational handouts to learn more about local ecology, buckthorn removal, and native landscaping. The Nature Center participates in sustainability projects for the City including submitting articles for the Seasons environmental newsletter, working with the City's Rain Garden Program, conducting tree disease education, administering the Tree Rebate Program, and participating in the City’s Green Team. The Community Gardens are also coordinated by Nature Center staff. 5 M2 Council Packet Page Number 202 of 206 Environmental Insert - Seasons The City publishes a quarterly environmental newsletter called Seasons. Each quarter the Seasons focuses on important environmental topics designed to educate, inspire, and promote sustainability City-wide. Summary Maplewood is in a unique position to implement and influence sustainability by the policies we set, by the approaches we use in City operations, and by the promotion of sustainability through City-wide education. The City should continue to strive to be a leader in the area of sustainability. Budget Impact Reducing energy use and pollution through sustainable practices helps the City save money in addition to meeting our environmental goals. Recommendation Review the information provided in the annual sustainability report and offer comments and feedback. Attachment 1. Green Brackets Report Links 1.

[Green Brackets] is the name of the challenge and was designed to involve all employees in the City’s sustainability efforts. Each department chose a sustainability goal that would reduce energy and/or reduce waste in City operations. The goal should be: • Realistic: Implementation of goals should be complete by the end of November 2013. • Specific: The goal should be specific and involve an effort or awareness from all employees. • Measurable: To ensure success of a goal, it needs to be measurable. Green Brackets Reports Following is a summary of each Department’s Green Bracket challenge. Building Operations: Retrofitting buildings to be energy efficient. City Manager: Paper reduction and promotion of sustainable events. The City Manager’s Office is reducing paper by – reducing City Council packets where feasible, use of the City Intranet and e-mails for form distribution, minimizing paper packets for open enrollment, and utilizing digital filing to reduce copies. During City Council or City employee events, the City Manager’s office uses recyclable and compostable products for food service where feasible. Community Development: Reduction of paper use. The Community Development Department is reducing paper by - reducing paper commission packets where feasible, reducing multiple copies of paper permits generated to customer and county, set computers to double-sided printing, scan all building and land use permits, reduce or eliminate paper during meetings where feasible, reduce or eliminate printing of e-mails where feasible, work with IT on system for online permits, review land use permits to ensure we are asking for only the number of paper copies needed. These combined efforts have drastically decreased paper use within the department. Finance: Composting. The Finance Department installed and maintained a compost bin for the City Hall lunch room. Once or twice weekly the department empties the kitchen compost bin full of organic food scraps into the backyard compost bin. Compost material will be used in City Hall gardens. 1 M2, Attachment 1 Council Packet Page Number 204 of 206 Citizen Services: Reusable bag education and plastic bag recycling. The Citizen Services Department distributed reusable shopping bags to its employees and education on reuse and recycling. Over a two-month period the department promoted plastic bag recycling and collected over 40 pounds of plastic bags which will be recycled and kept out of the waste stream. Fire Department: Increased recycling efforts and a concentration on the City’s no idling policy. The Fire Department has conducted an assessment of recycling containers at its three fire stations and added bins where necessary, which has increased recycling at the stations. The Fire Department continues its efforts in following the City’s no idling policy for all of the department vehicles. Additionally, with the purchase of the next ambulance the Fire Department will be moving away from diesel-fuel to gasoline-fuel ambulances. Based on research the new gasoline ambulance should reduce the Fire Department’s carbon footprint compared to that of the diesel engine. In 2014 the Fire Department will be overseeing the construction of the new fire station on 3M property. The new station will be a constructed following the new Green Building guidelines. IT Department: Reduce e-waste and energy use by minimizing personal printing devices, ensuring all new equipment is Energy Star rated, and running 80 percent of servers virtually. Park Department: Parks: Increase participation in Adopt-a-Park program. Community Center: Plastic water bottle reduction program. The Community Center has installed water bottle fillers on all drinking fountains. An educational campaign is planned to include signage above water bottle fillers, purchase and sale or giveaway of Maplewood Community Center water bottles at Subway and special events. Nature Center: Solar charging station for small electronics. Police Department: Paper reduction. The majority of paper used in the Police Department is for the retention, maintenance, and dissemination of police records. Steps have been taken to reduce the amount of paper that is copied and printed by simply working directly on the computer and utilizing e-mails rather than faxes. In the beginning of 2014, the Police Department is eager to roll-out paperless processing and storage of all police case files and department records, which will reduce paper use substantially. Public Works Department: Aerosol can recycling and sustainable operations. The survey crew goes through hundreds of spray paint cans per season. This year they began recycling all aerosol cans. The Public Works Department has added the Green Team as an agenda item to all staff meetings. Staff works together as a team during meetings to come up with sustainable solutions to City operations. Sustainable operations currently in the works include collecting roof water from the 1902 Building for street sweeping operations and stormwater irrigation systems. 2 M2, Attachment 1 Council Packet Page Number 205 of 206 M3 MEMORANDUM TO: Chuck Ahl, City Manager FROM: Karen Guilfoile, Director Citizen Services & Communications SUBJECT: Report on Swearing in Ceremony on January 6, 2014 DATE: December 3, 2013 INTRODUCTION State Statute §412.02 Subd. 2 states: Terms of elective officers shall commence on the first Monday in January following the election at which the officer is chosen.
