Public hearing - Acquisition and construction of storm sewer improvements - Hart Boulevard Storm Drainaee District. The purpose of the publ ic hearing was to consider the acquisition ofland for and the construction of a retention pond within the Hart Boulevard drainage district. The storm sewer study for this area was done several years ago and several improvement projects have been done within the storm drainage district including the storm sewer line between the clinic and Mississippi shores and storm sewer improvements done as part of the CSAH 75 Improvement Project. Construction of this retention pond will mark the completion of the major components of the storm drainage system for the Hart Boulevard drainage district. The City will, in the near future, assess those benefitting properties for the cost of these improvements. Bret Weiss, City Engineer, reviewed the boundaries of the drainage district and the location of the proposed retention pond which lies east of the Monticello Middle School. The pond shape may be adjusted to work around existing trees and the City is still working with school on the pond contour. [t was noted that a portion of the pond will be a "wet pond" retaining water at all times and the balance of the pond capacity would be for water storage. The pond depth would be from 2' up to 4' at its deepest point. The difference in pond levels would allow for different types of vegetation and wildlife which would enhance the pond's value as a natural habitat study area. John Simola, Public Works Director, asked how the interceptor sewer line and manholes would be affected. Bret Weiss indicated that this would be incorporated into the final design for the project. The engineer explained that the proposed project cost is $133,000 and the affected drainage area is made up of 544 acres which works out to a cost of $.14/sq. ft. for the properties involved. Bret Weiss explained that under the City's storm sewer policy only developed area will be assessed for the improvements. Trunk charges will be imposed on undeveloped land at the time the property develops. Acting Mayor Clint Herbst opened the public hearing. Eric Bondhus asked what would be the impact if the retention pond was not constructed? Bret Weiss stated that in doing the study the improvements were designed with the ultimate development of the area in mind. Without this retention pond which is 23 acre feet, the City would have to have bigger outlet pipes than the 36" pipe that is currently in place. However, regulations governing storm water runoff dictate the rate of discharge which requires that storm water be held a certain length of time so that the rate of discharge can be controlled. The City must control the rate of How as well as the volume of flow. Tom Holthaus questioned the retention pond and the area it serviced. He felt that areas upstream that had retention ponds that held the runoff from that area would not receive any benefit from the construction of this retention pond. Bret Weiss explained that many of the properties that drain into this area do not have retention ponds and currently the ditches, especially in the industrial park, are used for water storage. The industrial park is not fully developed at this time and as it develops the need for these improvements will be greater. Eric Bondhus asked if the storm sewer pipe in the industrial park is adequately sized. The City Engineer indicated that 3 Council Minutes - ] 1/22/99 the pipe may have to be upgraded. Dan Goeman asked about a particular area and whether that was proposed to be assessed. Eret Weiss indicated that it would be assessed. Acting Mayor Clint Hcrbst then closed thc public hearing. BRUCE THIELEN MOVED TO AUrHORIZE ACQUISITION OF THE POND AREA AND APPROVE PLANS FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE STORM SEWER IMPROVEMENTS FOR THE I-IART BOULEVARD STORM DRAINAGE DISTRICT CONTINGENT ON APPROVAL OF TI-IE POND GRADING PLAN BY THE SCIIOOL DISTRICT. ROGER CARLSON SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 8. Consideration of an offer for purchase of Senior Citizens Building. The Council reviewed the proposal from Dennis Anderson to purchase the Senior Citizens Building. The offer was for $120,000 under a contract for decd with the building proposed to be used for oHices. The City had appraisals done on the property and one of the concerns of the Council was that $120,000 offcr was below the asking price and approximately $40,000 lower than the lowest appraised value. The available parking for the site was also brought up. Sinee the parking is limited, the proposed use of the building should be such that it would not gencrate more traffic than its current use. The Council also questioned the contract for deed and felt that the City should not be providing the financing for the sale of this property. Dennis Anderson stated that he would be willing to add $10,000 to his offer making it $130,000 and he noted that the Council should not only look at what they were getting for the property but what the City would ultimately end up with on the site. I-Ie stated he would be willing to draft a written guarantee of the work that is to be done. Rick Wolfsteller added that the City Attorney had suggested that the City could possibly consider some type of development agrecment. The Council briefly discussed these options. BRIAN STUMPF MOVED TO ACCEPT THE COUNTER OFFER FOR THE SENIOR CITIZEN BUILDING FROM DENNIS ANDERSON OF $130,000 WITH NO CONTRACT FOR DEED WITH ANY PROPOSED AGREEMENT ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF nIE PROPERTY REVIEWED BY THE STAFF AND SINCE THE PROPERTY LIES WITHIN THE CCD DISTRICT ALSO REVIEWED BY THE DESIGN ADVISORY TEAM. ROGER CARLSON SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED WITH BRUCE THIELEN VOTING OPPOSITION. 4 9. Consideration of request to modify terms of option contract - Lal{e Tool. Rick Wolfsteller explained the option agreement that was originally drawn up with Lake Tool. The option agreement expired in September of 1999 and only recently Lake Tool inquired about an extension of the option. This matter was being brought back to the Council for direction on whether to extend the option. Eric Bondhus, representing Lake Tool. indicated that it was negligence on their part that the option agreement was allowed to expire. The firm still has an interest in the property and they would like a one year extension of the option agreement. Bruce Thielen questioned why a one year extension was required. Mr. Bondhus indicated that it would take at least 2-3 months to get the financing in place. BRUCE THIELEN MOVED TO EXTEND THE OPTION AGREEMENT FOR 90 DAYS WITH 1 1/2% OF THE PURCIIASE PRICE FOR THE OPTION PRICE WITH THE PURCHASE PRICE OF 'THE PROPERTY TO REMAIN AT $27,232 FOR THE 90 DA Y OPTION PERIOD WHICH BEGINS NOVEMBER 22, 1999. BRIAN STUMPF SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. 10. Consideration of authorizing: permanent 4-wav stop si~ns at 6th and Walnut Avenue. Placcd on the consent agenda as Item #5E. 11. Consideration of aoproviD!! resolution acceptin~ petition for extension of Chelsea Road and and utilities from Sandberg: Road to 9Wh Street. Bret Weiss provided an explanation of the proposed project. The proposed study will deal with the alignment of Chelsea Road trom Sandberg Road to 90th Street and also look at the construction of utilities. Bret Weiss noted there has been discussions with the County regarding acquisition of right-of-way from the County for the proposed road. Improvements to the first and second phase of the Groveland development would also be incorporated into the report. Bret Weiss stated the the project needs to be done but the City needs to secure costs figures first. Milton Olson spoke about the project and proposed access to his property. He noted his concern about not being notified of Council action that had taken place previously. Warren Olson stated that they want to make sure that they have the opportunity to be involved in the proceedings and a chance to debate the issues. The Council stated that at this point the City was only authorizing the City Engineer to do a feasibility report to determine what options are available, whether they are feasible and the cost of each. BRUCE THIELEN MOVED TO ACCEPT THE PETITION AND AUTHORIZE WSB & ASSOCIATES TO PREPARE A FEASfBILrry STUDY AS PROPOSED WITH THE DEVELOPER PROVIDING A DEPOSIT IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE COST OF THE FEASIBILITY STUDY. BRIAN STUMPF SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSL Y. RES. NO. 99-68 Bret Weiss indicated that they hoped to have the feasibility study done in January and would be meeting with the property owners at that point. 5 Council Minutes - 11/22/99 12. Consideration of accentine netition and waiver of puhlic hearine requirement and authorizing feasihility report/plans for extension of water line to Community Methodist Church. Added to the consent agenda as Item #5F, Acting Mayor Clint Herhst stated that he had received a call from a property owner who indicated that on his tax statement there was a line item for TIF, Ollie Koropchak replied that she had talked with the property owner, whose land is in the TIF District 1-22 which is the Downtown Redevelopment District. She noted that there is a 4 year "knockdown" rule which means if there is no huilding or development within that time frame the parcel is knocked out of the tax increment district. Ollie Koropchak stated the line item for TlF was not a charge hut a means of identifying the parcels in the district. 13. Approve payment of bills for November. BRUCE Tl-IIELEN MOVED TO APPROVE PA YMENT 0 THE BILLS, ROGER CARLSON SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY BRIAN STUMPF MOVED TO ADJOURN AT 8:15 P,M BRUCE THIELEN SECONDED TILE MOTION, MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY Recording Secretary 6 MINUTES SPECIAL MEETING - MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL Wednesday, December 8, 1999 - 5 p.m. Members Present: Roger Belsaas, Roger Carlson, Clint Herbst and Bruce Thielen. Members Absent: Brian Stumpf Mayor Belsaas called the meeting to order at 5: 10 p.m. City Administrator, Rick W olfsteller explained the purpose of the special meeting which is to discuss the City's proposed budget and tax levy for the year 2000. The public hearing provides residents an opportunity to comment on the City's budget. Rick Wolfsteller reviewed the process that was used to determine the 2000 budget. Initially the budget had been prepared using a 5% increase over the 1999 levy which provided a total levy of $4,848,611. At the last budget workshop the Council made some cuts to the proposed budget in order to keep the 2000 budget more in line with what was approved for 1999. The cuts resulted in a budget increase ot..over 1999 of about 2% or approximately $91,000. Rick Wolfsteller reviewed the sources of revenue for the City and provided information on the impact the proposed 2000 levy would have on the taxes paid by city homeowners. Mayor Belsaas then opened the public hearing on the 2000 proposed budget and tax levy. Bret Gemlich from the YMCA spoke to the Council regarding the City's contribution to the YMCA. He stated that the City's contribution to the YMCA is used for youth development. Without this funding the youth programs such as the after school program, youth counseling, and recreational therapy could be jeopardized. The area youth would lose a valuable resource if these programs are cut. Jason Bell spoke about his involvement in the YMCA program and how it benefitted him. Scott Peterson spoke of the value of the YMCA programs and urged continued funding for the programs. Tom McKinney, Executive Director of the Northwest Branch of the YMCA stated that the City's contribution to this program is a valuable investment for the youth of the area and lack of this type of programming may lead to less desirable youth activity and increased crime. Sharon Backstrom also spoke on the value of the programs offered by the YMCA as did Jim Lindberg from the Monticello School District. Bruce Thielen asked what other entities such as the township and county contributed to the program. Mr. Gemlich indicated there was little in the way of financial contributions from other entities. Roger Belsaas noted that the program benefitted people outside the city limits but was only supported financially by the city. Bruce Thielen explained that the City is taking a leadership role with the youth by providing the Community Center and its programs as well as providing an extensive park and trail system all of which provides activities for the area youth. Although the City cut their contribution to the YMCA and Community Education it did not mean that these programs did not have merit. Roger Belsaas added that he did not feel by making these budget cuts that the city was turning its back on the youth of the community. Council Minutes - 12/8/99 Duane Gates, Community Education Director and Patrice Bogart, Community Education Advisor spoke to the Council about the proposed cut in Community Education funding and submitted a memo to the City Council which outlined five areas impacted by the proposed cut. Roger Belsaas stated that he felt there was an aspect of unfairness in the City being asked to fund programs and acti vities of the school district which benefit the entire school district but arc not supported by any other entities comprising the school district. Bruce Thielen stated that when the City first made the contribution to the school district it was because at that time there was no park system or recreation program in place. Now, however, the City has a park and trail system and a Community Center that will provide opportunities for the youth and the City is shifting the focus of its support. It was suggested by Clint Herbst that because of the short notice of the City's intention to eliminate funding, the City may want consider reinstating the funding lor the YMCA and Community Education for the year 2000 with it being noted that the funding for these programs would not extend beyond the year 2000. The Council heard other comments of support lor the YMCA programs including those of Jason Zachman who invited the Council to attend the after school sessions held at the YMCA facility on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. He felt this would be a good opportunity for the Council to see first hand the value of the program. Jim Lindberg added that it is important to provide opportunities for youth but it is also important to seek their input on issues. Mayor Belsaas closed the public hearing. BRUCE THIELEN MOVED TO APPROVE THE 2000 BUDGET AND THE TAX LEVY WITH THE CHANGES DISCUSSED BY THE COUNCIL WHICH INCLUDE REINSTATING 'fHE $7,500 CONTRIBUTION TO THE YMCA AND THE $17,500 CONTRIBUTION TO COMMUNITY EDUCA TION WITH THE NOTA TION THAT THE FUNDING IS FOR THE YEAR 2000 ONL Y AND THE CITY WOULD EVALUATE AND ASSESS ANY REQUESTS FOR FUTURE FUNDING. CLrNT IIERBST SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSL Y WITH THE FINAL COUNCIL VOTE ON THE 2000 BUDGET AND TAX LEVY TO TAKE PLACE ON AT THE DECEMBER 13, 1999 REGULAR MEETING. BRUCE THIELEN MOVED TO ADJOURN AT 6: I 5 P.M.. ROGER CARLSON SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY. Recording Secretary 2 Council Agenda - 12/13/99 SA. Consideration of fund transfers for 1999. (R W) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Since this is likely to be the last meeting of the year for the City Council, this housekeeping item should be approved by the Council concerning fund transfers to cover deficiencies in various construction funds. transfers of balances remaining from various construction funds to debt service funds that finance the projects, along with miscellaneous transfers to correspond with our budget. One of the transfers proposed covers the 1999 budget item where we indicated we would be using liquor funds revenue to pay for $200,000 of the Community Center budget for debt service payments. Most of the transfers are self-explanatory and are necessary to eliminate deficiencies in construction funds or temporarily provide financing until a future G.O. bond can be issued. Other major transfers from sewer access funds or water tlmds are to cover the City's share of various projects that we planned on paying for by using trunk fees. Please review the proposed summary that is included with the agenda that outlines each proposed transfer, dollar amount and purpose of transfer. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Approve the transfers as recommended. C.

Consideration of resolution calling for redemotion of outstanding G.O. Bonds. Series 1990C.as of February 1. 200(), (RW) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROVND: Upon reviewing the status of our current debt service funds by comparing present balances in the funds along with the existing debt payments that are due in the future, the 1990C G.O. Bond appears to be a good candidate for pre-payment. The bond fund currently has sufficient cash to pay off the remaining $60,000 in debt and the City will save interest costs by eliminating interest rates between 6.65% to 6.85% on the remaining debt. Mark RufT of I;;hlers and Associates, our bond consultants, is in agreement with the prepayment option that is available on this bond and also recommends adoption of the resolution. Ehlers and Associates has prepared the resolution and a notice of redemption that will be published if approved by the Council. B. AL TERNA TIVE ACTIONS: 1. Adopt the resolution calling for the redemption of the outstanding G.O. Improvement Bonds, Series 1990C. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The recommendation of the City Administrator and our bond consultant is that this bond issue be prepaid as outlined above. The bond fund has accumulated sufficient funds to payoff the remaining debt and the City will save on interest costs. D.

Consideration of authorizine: purchase of wheel park fixtures - ramps. iumps. etc. A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: City Council is asked to consider the purchase of wheel park fixtures from True Ride Inc. from Duluth, MN, in the amount of $24,926.95 which, when purchased and installed, will complete the wheel park facility. The quote provided by True Ride was the second lowest amount among quotes obtained by City staff from other providers. True Ride has done work for a number of local cities including Coon Rapids, Shoreview, Maple Grove and Chanhassen. They come well recommended. The lowest quote was provided by Big Daddy Inc. of I-Iuntington Beach, Caliic)rnia which came in at $19,573. Selection of this company is not being recommended because the quote included used equipment. Also, staff is concerned that the firm has little experience in developing fixtures for use in a Minnesota climate. The amount associated with this expenditure comes as a surprise. We did not expect to see a significant cost to complete the park. It was our understanding that the original contract covered construction of ramps and jumps, or that any added cost to complete the wheel park would be small. The good news is that overall, the project remains on budget. Funds are available in the contingency fund at this time to cover this cost. For your information I have included the latest listing of project costs and change orders. As you will see, after purchase of the wheel park fixtures, there remains approximately $66,255 in the budget to pay for other unforseen costs as the project wraps up. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to accept quotes and award contract to True Ride Inc. from Duluth, Minnesota in the amount 01'$24,926.95 for the purpose ofconstructing and installing wheel park fixtures. Selection of this alternative will allow the fixtures to bc constructed and installed in time for usage early in the spring of2000. 2. Motion to reduce cost by modifying fixtures provided at the wheel park. Council could remove a few of the fixtures to reduce the cost, however doing so could be self defeating. 3. Motion to deny acceptance of quotes and deny granting contract. 4. Motion to accept quote and award contract to Big Daddy, Inc. in the amount of $19,573. City Council Agenda -12/13/99 c. STAfr: RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends alternative I. It is frustrating to discover this significant added cost late in the project, however there's not much that can be done about it except to abandon the development of the wheel park. It is not recommended that the design be altered to reduce costs as the mix of fixtures represents the minimum necessary to make it a fun, attractive facility. Fortunately, funds sufficient to cover this cost currently remain in the contingency fund. Despite this glitch, it appears that we are on track to hring the project in on budget (including full use of contingency). D.

Public Hearillll - Consideration of a request for a Conditional Use Permit for a Planned Unit Development within the B-3 Zoning district and a Preliminarv Plat to allow outdoor vehicle sales and associated automotive service uses and variances to the City's Sign Ordinance. Apolicant: Monticello Ford. Steve Grittman presented the staff report on this item. The property is located at the southwest quadrant ofT.H. 25 and 1-94 and is affected by a project that would eliminate their property access from Oakwood Drive. The site currently contains a Ford dealership and it is proposed to add other services such as car rental, quick lube service and repair services. A conditional use permit is required for any Planned Unit Development and because the applicant is combining a number of pieces of land into one parcel a plat is required. The applicant is also requesting variances to the City's sign ordinance. Steve -1- 5 L. . Grittman reviewed the variances requested noting that the variances were significantly Over what the ordinance allows. · Number of signs - The sign ordinance allows one free standing sign. The applicant is proposing four pylon signs in addition to building and entrance signs. Sign area - The square footage of the signs proposed by the applicant is 600 square feet while the ordinance allows 300 square feet of area. Setback - The applicant shows the setbacks at 5 and 7 feet while the ordinance requires IS feet. Prohibited sign - One of the signs the applicant is proposing is an electronic message board. The City ordinance does not allow electronic message boards in any zoning district. Planning Commission Minutes _ 5/4/99 . . The staff recommended approval of the conditional use permit for the Planned Unit Development and of the preliminary plat. However, the staff did not recommend approval of the variances to the sign ordinance. Steve Grittman suggested that if the PlaIUling Commission felt the sign plan should be approved it may be prudent to look at doing it as an amendment to the ordinance. In granting a variance the PlaMing Commission must find that requirements of the ordinance denied the property Owner reasonable use of the property or created a physical hardship. Robbie Smith asked about the landscaping requirements tor the proposal. Steve Grittman explained how the number of trees and plantings were determined. Chair Frie opened the public hearing. Dave Peterson, 13 12 Prairie Creek Lane, stated that the number of signs requested is not excessive considering the amount of land area of the parcel. If the property was not being combined into one parcel but remained individual parcels each parcel would be entitled to one free standing sign. He felt the number of uses proposed for the sit,e justified the number of signs that were being requested. Mr. Peterson also stated that plans to change T.H. 25 impacted his business as the state would not grant a right-in offT.H. 25 and added that signage is critical to his business. In this case since the business cannot be seen from the freeway, the signage is very important, especially the electronic message board. Mr. Peterson noted that currently the business has two free standing signs. In response to the landscaping soncems, Mr. Peterson stated that a Portion of the area is a display lot and not a parking lot. He believes it is better not to have a lot of trees or plantings in the display area. Chair Frie closed the public hearing. Robbie Smith noted that the request for additional signs was, in part, because of the change in access and asked if the applicant could meet the 15' setback requirements. The applicant stated he could comply with that requirement. The PlaIUling Commission -2- 5f: Planning Commission Minutes - 5/4/99 reviewed the proposal for compliance with parking requirements and pointed out that the parking lot area would need to be paved and curbed. The Planning Commission discussed the variances from the sign ordinance. Previously the Planning commission had discussed whether electronic message boards should be allowed and how they should be handled within the ordinance. The staff indicated that the sign ordinance needs some extensive work and they were not at a point to propose any amendment to the sign ordinance dealing with electronic signs. The applicant commented that combining the parcels into one severely restricted the amount of signage he could have for the business. He felt the way the sign ordinance was written was discriminatory towards large land parcels. Chair Frie responded that the City is required to apply the ordinance equally against all the parcels in the same zoning district. LEobbie Smith commented that the electronic message board could flash multiple messages and thus reduce the number of signs needed. Dave Peterson concurred that this approach had merit and the Planning Commission discussed reasonable restrictions that could be placed on the use of an electronic message board. These included: I) That it not be a flashing sign; 2) A time limit be placed on how often the message could change; and 3) That it not be a motion sign. SteveJ:jrittman added that any amendm~nt to the sign ordinance would require a public hearinv ROY POPILEK MOVED TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS FOR A PUD AND FOR OUTDOOR SALES BASED ON A FINDING THAT THE SITE PLAN MEETS THE INTENT OF THE ZONING DISTRICT AND ALL PERFORMANCE STANDARDS OF THE ORDINANCE ARE COMPLIED WITH. ROD DRAGSTEN SECONDED THE MOTION. ROY POPILEK AMENDED THE MOTION TO INCLUDE APPROVAL OF THE PLANS BY THE CITY ENGINEER. ROD DRAGSTEN SECONDED THE AMENDED MOTION. MOTION CARRlED UNANIMOUSLY. ROBBIE SMITH MOVED TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE PRELIMINARY PLAT BASED ON THE FINDING THAT THE PROPOSAL IS CONSISTENT WITH DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE B-3 ZONING DISTRICT. ROY POPILEK SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRlED UNANIMOUSL Y. DICK FRIE MOVED TO APPROVE A MODIFIED SIGN PLAN AND V ARlANCES BASED ON THE FINDINGS MADE AT THE HEARING INCLUDING UNIQUENESS OF THE NEEDS OF THE BUSINESS AND THE IMPACT OF THE ROAD PROJECT ON THE BUSINESS OPERATION. In further discussion Dick Frie explained that rather than use the amendment approach, ... -,)- SF the variance route would provide a quicker result for the applicant. He noted that the Planning Commission could approve the request based on an anticipated amendment to the ordinance but there is the possibility that an ordinance amendment might fail to pass. The sign plan proposed for approval would include the two existing signs which are grand fathered in and the Use of one electronic message board for a total of three signs. Dick Frie stated that the restrictions on the property access was the basis for the finding to grant a variance. Since there was no second to the motion, Dick Frie rescinded his motion. There was additional discussion on the signage for the building and the free standing signs. Planning Commission Minutes - 5/4/99 ROBBIE SMITH MOVED TO APPROVE THE SIGN VARIANCES AND A MODIFIED SIGN PLAN WHICH INCLUDES BUILDING SIGNS AS PROPOSED, TWO PYLON SIGNS AND ONE ELECTRONIC MESSAGE BOARD BASED ON THE FINDINGS MADE AT THE HEARING INCLUDING THE SIZE OF THE PROPERTY RELATIVE TO THE NUMBER OF SIGNS AND THE NUMBER OF DISTINCT AND INDEPENDENT BUSINESS OPERA nONS AND THE IMPACT OF THE ROAD PROJECT ON THE BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS FOR THE USE OF THE ELECTRONIC MESSAGE BOARD: I) MESSAGE DISPLA YED FOR A LIMITED DURATION; 2) NO FLASHING SIGN AND J) NO MOYlaN IN THE ELECTRONIC SIGN 4) THREE SECOND PAUSE BETWEEN MESSAGES REQUIRED. LED DISPLA Y REQUIRED. DICK FRlE SECONDED THE MOTION. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSL Y. Rod Dragsten suggested that the City staff look a revising the sign ordinance. , . 51= Planning Commission Agenda - 12/07/99 5. Consideration of a reQuest for an amendment to a P{J)) within the B3 zoning district to allow for an off-site auto sales/storage lot. Applicant: Dave Peterson's Monticello Ford A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: At the previous meeting of the Planning Commission, the Planning Commission acted to table action on approval of the proposed amendment pending presentation of additional site data and also pending additional information regarding proposed changes to the sign system. Subsequent to the Plmming Commission meeting, the applicant has been able to obtain additional information regarding the sign system, however the data relating to the balance of the amendment has not been provided, therefore Planning Commission is asked at this time to consider an amendment to the PUD that applies only to the sign system. As you recall at the previous meeting, the applicant requested that the sign area for the reader board be increased from 26 sq. ft. to 70 sq. ft. The applicant made this request based on new information that he obtained regarding electronic reader boards that essentially indicated that the sign area needed to be larger in order to have the desired efrect. The Planning Commission tabled this item pending additional information regarding sign size and requested staff to research this item further. Following is additional information on the topic as part of our research and discussions with the applicant, it was found that the sign as proposed, according to the sign company, has a viewing range of approximately 600 ft. which is approximately equal to the front footage ofthe Peterson Ford parcel. Therefore, the sign will not be readily readable by motorists until they travel to the Peterson property, thus the sign will not overwhelm the other signs in the vicinity. In our discussions with the applicant we have found that he is willing to reduce the total sign area of the entire sign system in an amount equal to or greater than the added sign area requestcd with the reader board. Therefore, approving the amendment to the CUP relating to increasing the sign of reader board will not result in an increase of the total sign area proposed. On a related point, the sign ordinance that the Planning Commission recently approved allows installation of reader boards up to 100 sq. ft. However, it should be noted that the 100 sq. ft. electronic reader board square footage would need to be drawn from the overall sign area proposed. Similarly, with regard to the Peterson Ford reader board, approximately 44 sq. feet has been removed from the system sign area already approved by the Planning Commission. Thus, if the Planning Commission felt comfortable that the total sign area approved previously represents the base level allowable under code for the site, then it should follow that if the applicant wishes to shift some of his sign area to the reader board and away from other signs, he should be allowed to do so. For additional perspective with regard to this sign, the 38 x 20 cabinet will have two lines 12" tall. The size of this sign is 1/3 of the size of the sign of the Miller Auto Sign in Rogcrs and the Miller Auto sign in St. Cloud. In addition, the sign proposed for Dave Pcterson Ford is equal to a bank sign located on 371 in Brainerd, unfortunately I was unable to visit this site to take a look at this sign. Steve Johnson indicated that he will be providing pictures of a reader board similar to the reader board proposed. s~ Planning Commission Agenda - 12/07/99 B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to approve ,m amendment to the sign system portion of the PUD. Amendment approved calls for expanding the reader board area from 26 square feet to 70 square feet, along with a reduction in other sign area square footage by 44 square feet. Motion based on the finding that the amendment to the sign portion of the CUP is justified based on consistency with the comprehensive plan. The amendment proposed will not result in a sign system that will undermine the intent of regulations governing signage in the Highway 25 corridor. All other requirements of the PUD approval granted in May 1999 must be met. 2. Motion to deny approval of amendment to the sign system portion of the PUD. Motion based on the finding that the sign system as proposed is not consistent with the intent of the sign regulations in the area and thus inconsistent with the comprehensive plan and should therefore be denied. The Planning Commission could take the view that the exchange of wall or pylon sign area for additional reader board is not a fair one-to-one exchange because the intensity of signage on a wall sign is less than the intensity of a reader board. c. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of City Staff that the sign system amendment be approved. The main reason supporting this approval is the fact that proposed ordinance amendment previously adopted by the Planning Commission would allow this type of sign on Highway 25. If the Planning Commission feels that the sign as proposed at 70 sq. n. is in excess of what is desirable along Highway 25, then we should go back and consider adjusting the current recommendation to the City Council on electronic reader board development in the B-3 district and take a look at our code to see if perhaps the amendment should be changed. D. SUPPORTING DATA: Exhibit A - Copy of the graphics showing dimensions of the proposed sign next to dimension of the Miller Auto sign in Rogers in St. Cloud. Exhibit B - Information from sign company regarding viewing ranges for a line featuring 12" lettering. 5~ . 5g. . . City Council Agenda -12/13/99 Consideration of a request for a Special Home Occupation Permit within the R-l Zonin!! District. Aoplicant: Wayne Weber. (JO) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Mr. Wayne Weber has requested the approval of a home occupation permit to operate a business from his property at 1210 W. River Street. The business involves the receipt of industrial parts which are then repackaged for distribution to other business locations. Mr. Weber utilizes a 1,200 square foot detached garage for the storage of materials for his business, and a forklift to unload delivered materials. These aspects of the business require that the applicant request a Special Home Occupation Permit, which is a license to operate an accessory commercial use on the applicant's residential property. Most ofthe essential aspects ofthe Home Occupation ordinance, Section 3.11 of the Zoning Ordinance, would appear to be met (attached as Exhibit A to this report). Staff is unaware of any neighborhood complaints regarding the operation. The need for the permit became apparent when the applicant was requesting a building permit which would have allowed an expansion ofthe attached garage. The garage was already larger than allowed by ordinance (over 1,000 square feet) so expanding the garage is not possible. There is some concern that vehicles might be used in place of an expanded garage for storage space. The one issue raised by the ordinance would be the issue of exterior storage. Section 3-11 rDJ I.e. prohibits the exterior storage of equipment or materials with the exception of personal automobiles. In the past few weeks it has been observed that the applicant has utilized the driveway for the parking of commercial vehicles (one large truck and one small truck), a violation of the section cited above. This aspect is a requirement of all Home Occupation Permits, and should be addressed by the applicant as a part of the issuance of this permit. A Home Occupation Permit is issued for one year, then may be renewed for up to three years increments thereafter. The Ordinance specifies that City Staff shall review the renewal request, and forward the request to the Planning Commission if warranted. The Planning Commission conducted the public hearing and heard comments from Dan Goeman in support of allowing the special home occupation permit. Rod Dragsten noted the neatness of the site, but expressed concern about allowing trucks to be used. Dick Frie indicated that citizens that contacted him were also concerned about truck parking. After discussion, the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval as noted under alternative 1 below. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to recommend approval of the Special Home Occupation Permit, subject to the removal of any exterior storage of commercial vehicles or other materials and City Council Agenda -12/13/99 . equipment from the site. Interior storage IS allowed under a Special Home Occupation Penuit. C. STAFF RECOMMENDA T10N Staff recommends approval of the Permit as recommended by the Planning Commission. As noted, there has been no record of neighborhood complaints due to the business operation, and it was only due to the applicant's building permit request that the operation became known to City Staff. Subject to compliance with the provisions of the Ordinance, including the prohibition of exterior storage, this application should be appropriate for approval. D. SUPPORTING DATA Exhibit A - 110me Occupation Ordinance . . 6. Adult use/accessory activities shall be prohibited at any public show, movie, caravan, circus, carnival, theatrical, or other performance or exhibition presented to the general public where minors are admitted. (01/13/92, #217) . 3-11: HOME OCCUPATIONS: [A] puroose. The purpose of this section is to prevent competition with business districts and to provide a means through the establishment of specific standards and procedures by which home occupations can be conducted in residential neighborhoods without jeopardizing the health, safety, and general welfare of the surrounding neighborhood. In addition, this section is intended to provide a mechanism enabling the distinction between permitted home occupations and special or customarily "more sensitive" home occupations so that permitted home occupations may be allowed through an administrative process rather than a legislative hearing process. [B] Aoolication. Subject to the non-conforming use provision of this section, all occupations conducted in the home shall comply with the provisions of this section. This section shall not be construed, however, to apply to home occupations accessory to farming. [C] Procedures and Permits. 1. Permitted Home Occupation. Any permitted home occupation as defined in this section shall require a "permitted home occupation permit." Such permits shall be issued subject to the conditions of this section, other applicable city code provisions, and state law. This permit may be issued by the Zoning Administrator or his agent based upon proof of compliance with the provisions of this section. . Application for the permitted home occupation permit shall be accompanied by a fee as adopted by the Council. If the Administrator denies a permitted home occupation permit to an applicant, the applicant may appeal the decision to the City Council acting as the Board of Adjustment and Appeals, which shall make the final decision. The permit shall remain in force and effect until such time as there has been a change in conditions or until such time as the provisions of this section have been reached. At such time as the City has reason to believe that either event has taken place, a public hearing shall be held before the planning Commission. The Council shall make a final decision on whether or not the permit holder is entitled to the permit. 2. Special Home Occupation. Any home occupation which does not meet the specific requirements for a permitted home occupation as defined in this section shall require a "special home occupation permit" which shall be applied for, reviewed, and disposed of in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 22 of the zoning ordinance. . MONTICELLO ZONING ORDINANCE ;G 3/56 . . [D] . 3. Declaration of Conditions. The Planning Commission and the Council may impose such conditions of the granting of a "special home occupation permit as may be necessary to carry out the purpose and provisions of this section. 4. Effect of Permit. A "special home occupation permit" may be issued fOf a period of one (I) year after which the permit may be reissued for periods of up to three (3) years each. Each application for permit renewal will be reviewed by City staff. City staffwill determine whether or not it is necessary to process permit renewal in accordance with the procedural requirements of the initial special home occupation permit. Staff determination will be made based upon the manner of operation observed by staff and based upon the level of complaints made about the home occupation. 5. Transferability. Permits shall not run with the land and shall not be transferable. 6. Lapse of Special Horne Occupation Permit by Non-Use. Vlhenever within one (1) year after granting a permit the use as permitted by the permit shall not have been initiated, then such permit shall become null and void unless a petition for extension of time in which to complete the work has been granted by the Council. Such extension shall be requested in writing and filed with the Zoning Administrator at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of the original permit.

(8/10/92, #232) MONTICELLO ZONING ORDINANCE 3/59 5(;, . . . SR. Council Agenda - 12/13/99 Approval of contract with Hoglund Transportation for Heartland Express Bus Service for year 2000. (C.S., .1.0.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: The City of Monticello contracts with Hoglund Transportation to provide service for the Heartland Express Bus. The current contract was originally executed for the years 1997 and 1998 with extensions allowed for 1999 and 2000 provided the rates did not increase more than 4 percent. The rate proposed for 2000 is $29.11 per hour which would be a 4% increase. This is within the provisions of the contract extension agreement, thus allowing for approval without renegotiating the contract. As of December 31, 2000, the contract expires and the City will have to got out for bids for a new contract beginning in 2001. B. AL TERNA TIVE ACTIONS: 1. Approve the extension of the contract for Heartland Express bus service with Hoglund Transportation at $29.11 per hour for the year 2000. 2. Deny approval of the contract and halt bus service for the year 2000. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Council approve the last year of the existing contract with Hoglund Transportation. The City Administrator believes a 4% increase is acceptable. We have been informed that most of the increase will go towards the bus driver's salary. This is probably necessary given the tight labor market and the need to keep good drivers. D.

CITY OF MONTICELLO HOGLUND COACH LINES L TD Title Title Date Date Cntrct2000.bus: 12/8/99 SYl Page 10 . . . City Council Agenda -12/13/99 Si. Consideration of a request for an amendmcnt to the R-l and R-2 side yard setbacks to permit a six foot setback on the 2ara2C sidc. Applicant: Harold Shermer. (JO) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Harold Shermer has requested that the City amend its side yard setback requirements in R-I and R-2 Zoning Districts from ten feet to six feet on the garage side. Current setback requirements arc ten feet on each side of the house and/or attached garage. The request would increase the buildable area ofa property from 60 feet to 64 feet on a minimum 80 foot wide lot. Side yard setbacks affect the look of a residential subdivision. Some communities allow narrower side yards on the garage side, but these allowances tend to occur in small lot single family districts, such as an R-2, or where wider lots are required in which case the standard setback is usually wider than ten feet. In a quiek check of other communities in the Monticello area - BufTalo, Delano, Rockford, Otsego, Albertville, and Big Lake - the setbacks are most often ten feet on both sides for lots of75-80 feet in width. A few require wider lots. Buffalo is 5 and 15 feet on 85 foot wide lots, and Rockford is 10 and 15 feet on 90 foot wide lots. Many of these communities had small lot single family districts which allowed narrower setbacks, but most of the platting appears to be occurring in the larger lot districts. In the original plat area of Monticello, most of the lots are just 66 feet in width. In these areas, a narrower side yard setback would seem to be appropriate. The City has granted variances in the past to accommodate garage construction on these narrower lots. A 6 and 10 foot setback requirement (6 feet on the garage side) would seem to be appropriate in these areas, most of which are zoned R-2. While the City has stated that larger single family development is an important housing goal, a reduction of the side yard setbacks in the current R-l District would reduce the spaciousness ofthe subdivision in exchange for the potentially larger house size. Developers always have the option of platting lots which are wider than the minimum if they wish to construct houses which cannot fit within the 60 foot wide buildable area now in place. Planning Commission reviewed the request for the amendment to the sideyard setback standards and recommended alternative #3 (denial). It was their view that the current ordinance should stand and should not be altered because the developer did not complete his homework on City standards when developing his plat design. However, the Planning Commission had some sympathy for Shermer's situation after hearing a detailed description of the sideyard setback problem faced by Shermer on the lots adjacent to the gas line easement. . City Council Agenda -12/13/99 After discussion, it was determined that Shermer would take a look at his plat layout and possibly re-subdivide certain lots or submit a request for a planned unit development that would apply to the few lots affected by the gas line easement. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to approve the request to amend the side yard setbacks in the R-l and R-2 Zoning Districts to allow a six foot side yard setback on the garage side. 2. Motion to approve an amendment to the side yard setbacks in the R-2 District only to allow a six foot side yard setback on the garage side. 3. Motion to recommend no changes to the sidc yard setbacks in the R-l and R-2 Districts. 4. Motion to table action, subject to additional infi.mnation. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION . StafTrecommended to the Planning Commission that side yard setbacks be reduced only in the R-2 District. The Planning Commission was more comfortable in leaving the code as is and handle sideyard setback problems in the R-2 zone on a case-by-case basis via variance process. Staff is comfortable with the recommendation made by the Planning Commission. D. SUPPORTING DATA Exhibit A - Memo of 11/3/99 development meeting with Harold & Darlene Shermer . . Park Side at the Meadows ~ Development Meeting. November 3, 1999 Attendance: Harold & Darlene Shermer, John Simola, Jeff O'Neill and Clint Herbst The following summarizes the discussion between the parties above regarding the items below. Please review this document and call me if you have questions. I. Credit for increasing pathway width from 8' to 10'. It had previously been noted to Shermer that the City will pay for the additional two feet of path width due to the fact that City standards changed after the project had been approved. O'Neill noted that he received an estimated price of $1.50 per square foot for purpose of calculating credit. Shermer noted that the credit should take into account the difficult terrain. Jeff will check with the City Engineer and see if a larger credit is appropriate due to grades, etc. Is a $1.50 per square foot fair in this case. 2. Setback Amendment. O'Neill noted that Shermer can apply for an amendment if he so desires. Shermer said if he was aware of the 10' setback on both sides, his lots would be bigger. Shermer noted that he would like to apply for the setback amendment. O'Neill informed him that he needed to submit a formal application and the cost would be $250. 3. Road Width. . The road width was defined by Shermer's engineer as back of curb to back of curb. This was a mistake as the plans should have shown road width as measured at curb face. The City Engineer approved the plans but before the curb was set, the City inspector saw the problem and required that the road be built to standard. Shermer noted that the standard width cost was an additional $26,000. Clint noted that the City should be responsible for funding any added or extraordinary costs associated with adding the additional width. For example, if curb needed to be replaced for the widened road, the City should pay such and additional cost. Shermer was asked to identify added costs associated with increasing the road width after it had already been cut in. Shermer noted that he might not have gone forward with the project had he known that the road was going to cost an additional $26,000. Getting this information after the utilities were in pushed him into a position where he was forced to complete the project. John noted that we should check with the City Attorney to see what responsibilities the City or engineer have to with respect to paying for added costs associated with widening the road width after original plan approval. Shermer also noted that there was late information on the need for Chimney seals. Also, drain tile was not noted on the original plans. O'Neill noted that Shermer should document his added costs associated with adding these items late in the project. 4. Annexation. , It was noted that annexation process from 1997~ 1999 was delayed due to City/Township discussions. Ultimately, MOAA approved entire first phase for annexation - City approved 13 acres in first phase. Township wanted to follow MOAA recommendation. This was one cause of the hang-up. Other delays were caused by problems with the legal description. .~~ 5. Grading Fee. Harold noted that the grading fee of $1 ,800 was agreed to earlier. Harold said it was an unreasonable . amount, but he agreed to pay it so he will. Also, project was given authorization once both the City and Township agreed to annexation but before State Planning Agency ratification. This was done to accommodate schedule. Shermer recognized that the City tried to work with him on this. O'Neill noted that grading permits would no longer be granted until the State Planning Agency ratifies City and Township annexation approvals. 6. Development Agreement. City allowed his corporation to act as disbursing agent. 7. Power Pole. The preliminary plat design required that the pole be moved. This was a pre-existing condition on the land. Emmerich said that he would move it when he did the next phase. Emmerich never bought the land so he never moved the pole. Shermer felt moving the pole was the City's responsibility. Clint noted that the value of the land purchased by Shermer should have reflected the added cost of moving the pole. 8. As-Builts. As of one week ago, the project is completed sufficiently to allow the City to record as-built information. This information will be collected as soon as possible. This information is necessary in order for Shermer to begin plan work on next phase. 9. Road Curve. . Road curved tighter to residential side to preserve park area. This created added cost associated with building retaining wall. It was noted that the road was later shifted back slightly to save trees and reduce height of retaining wall. 10. Park Parking. Simola noted that the entrance road was allowed to be extended through a City park. The parking lot was required to be rebuilt as part of the project. Shermer noted that he did extra grading of the park area that was not necessarily required. John noted that perhaps it would be appropriate to grant a credit for the grading of the park area. 11 . Pathway between lots. It was agreed to take a look at eliminating the pathway connection and bring it up at the next Planning Commission and Parks meetings. Parks Commission. Parks is on the 18th of November @ 4:30. This based on Shermer's request and recent Planning Commission action to eliminate a similar pathway associated with Klein Farm VI. Other Items: Shermer noted that he had good control of the project. He new every dime that went in there. He saved money by doing more of it himself. He believes that utilities installed privately cost less for the developer. Shermer requested that the City get a price on sign installation. . . . . John said we can ask the City Attorney if the City Engineer can be held liable for the road width mistake? Shermer noted that he doesn't want to get into litigation but he does feel that the mistake in the review cost him $ and forced him to complete the project. O'Neill asked if the questions regarding the final name of the road had been answered. John reviewed the documentation on the street name and said he would check with Gary and Roger on the final name. He would also call 421~9126, Jim Cairo, to determine if the streets have been properly labeled on the plat. Shermer noted that the County is requiring a document number for the gas line easement. He had to have a blanket easement converted to a specific area adjacent to the gas line. It has taken since August to figure get this resolved. Discussions regarding City expenses - Shermer requested that the City reduce its fee in an amount equal to the City Engineers share of City soft costs. O'Neill noted that he would review the matter with the City Attorney and the City Engineer Harold noted that he paid directly for overages so we need to pay him back for the costs out of the $14,000 deposit he provided. At the end of the meeting, Shermer prov ided 1;2 of the city's fees as partial payment ($12,000). Full payment to occur in conjunction with resolution of road width. Shermer noted that he had an unexpected land expense ($5,000) when he was stuck with buying a sliver of land necessary to make a road connected from the Meadow Oaks plat to his property. Shermer noted that this had been a difficult project for him and his family. He recognized that many of the problems resulted from circumstances beyond the City's control. City officials stressed that they would do what they could to make sure that the second phase goes better than the first. CC: Planning Commission Mayor and City Council City Engineer City Attorney City Administrator 51 . . . Sj. City Council Agenda -12/13/99 Consideration of a reQuest for an amended plat for Parks ide to allow the elimination of a pathway in the side yard. Applicant: Harold Shermer. (JO) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Harold Shermer has requested that the City allow a revised plat for his Parkside subdivision. This subdivision was designed with a cul.de-sac, from which a pathway route was reserved to allow a pedestrian connection from the cul-de-sac to the next street. Recently, stalThas reconsidered such pathways in light of concerns over their eompatibil ity with residential side yards, as well as ditIiculty in constructing and maintaining such pathways in limited areas. Staff's discussion has centered around a more thorough review ofwhere such pathways may be needed. In the case of Parks ide (as with Klein Farms 6th Addition), it is believed that the short additional distance from the cui-de-sac to the street and principal sidewalk does not necessitate a pathway through the side yards as previously planned. There may be situations where such pathway connections are still appropriate. In these cases, stalTwilllikely be recommending a wider pathway right-of-way (forty feet or more), and potentially wider lots adjacent to avoid both the crowding issue and the maintenance problems encountered with the previous design. Both the Planning Commission and the Parks Commission recommended alternative 1. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to approve the plat amendment for Parkside, eliminating the pathway in the side yard, based on a finding that the benefits ofthe pathway in this location do not outweigh the problems associated with narrow side yard pathways as previously designed. 2. Motion to deny the plat amendment, based on a finding that the pathway serves an important public purpose in the currently approved location. 3. Motion to table action on the amendment, subject to additional information. C. ST AFF RECOMMENDATION Statfrecommendsapproval of the plat amendment as outlined in Alternative 1. As noted in the text, such pathways can present problems for the City, the neighbors, and the users. Staff will recommend such side yard pathways where a wider right-of-way can be obtained, and where there is a greater need for direct pedestrian access. D.

Adoption Hearing - Consideration of resolution adoptim! 200 budget and tax levv. (RW) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: As part of the Truth in Taxation requirements, the City Council is required to hold this second adoption hearing on the adoption of the 2000 budget and the resulting tax levy. While this second meeting will technically be another public hearing, the purpose of the new requirement dclaying the actual adoption of the budget and tax levy until this meeting is to provide the Council and the public with sufficient time to digest the budget requirements proposed at our last Wednesday night meeting in case additional changes were warranted. At the initial public hearing Wednesday night, the Council action was to add additional $25,000 to the budget for the Community Education funding and YMCA funding that would increase our tax levy from the proposed $4,714,325 to a new total of$4,739,325. This will result in our tax levy going up by 2.6% or $121,600 over the amount levied in 1999. Our tax capacity rate for next year would increase to 36.272 from 35.186 in 1999. In addition to the Community Education and YMCA funding, this budget would also have funds available for the first year of debt payment on the upcoming general obligation bond we will be selling and also covers the anticipated cost of operating the Community Center for the first year. . Although we are not sure what the final tax levies are from other taxing jurisdictions such as Wright County or the school district, it is very likely that an average homeowner will still see their property taxes change very little trom what they paid in 1999. That would be the case even if their property values had increased an average of 5%. The Council should open the public hearing for any additional comments the public may have regarding the proposed budget and tax levy. Please refer to the agenda packet summary provided for last Wednesday night meeting for additional details on the proposed budget. B. AL TERNA TIVE ACTIONS: 1. After the close of the adoption hearing, the Counci I could adopt a resolution setting the tax levy requirements for next year at the proposed amount of $4,739,325, which is the amount discussed at our last public hearing Wednesday night. 2. The Council could adopt a final levy amount that is less than or more than the amount proposed but not more than $4,848,611, the maximum allowed. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: . It is recommended that the resolution be adopted as proposed and modified at our last public hearing at $4,739,325. Council Agenda - 12/13/99 . D.

Council Agenda - 12/13/99 8. Consideration of amendments to employee benefits policy regarding yaeation schedules. (RW) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: The purpose of this agenda item is for Council consideration of possible amendments to our vacation schedule policy for full-time employees. From what I can determine, our current schedule for vacation accumulation has not been changed in 20 plus years. The area of most concern relates to our vacation schedule [or the first year of employment. Our policy indicates that during the first year, one week of vacation is earned. Weare finding that this has been an area of concern in the hiring of new employees, especially if anyone has had previous experience. Most people when changing jobs have a diflicult time in reverting back to only one week of vacation accrual when they may have been used to two or three weeks at their former position. . In order to see how our vacation schedule compared to surrounding communities, we surveyed the communities of Becker, Elk River, Buffalo, Big Lake, Maple Grove and Plymouth to see what their policies contained. As you will note, all of the surveyed communities provide more than five days vacation for the first year of employment with most of them providing two weeks. The only exception was the City of Buffalo which had six days accumulation [or the first year. In BufTalo' s case, you wi II note that they have a higher accumulation [or the second through the fifth year along with other differences depending on length of employment. As a result of the survey information, it is also possible that the Council should consider other changes to our vacation policy in addition to the first year by possibly adding additional days for employees who may have 20 or 25 years of service. A suggestion might be that at 20 or 25 years an additional 3 Y2 hours per month could be added which would add five days per year to the top end of the scale. The primary concern though still exists with the first year of employment which I feel should be simply adjusted to ten days of vacation for 0-5 years rather than five days for the first year. Exceptions in the past have been made to this policy in filling a few key positions. As a negotiating point, I have found it necessary to grant additional vacation accumulation for the first year to positions including the Chief Bui Idi ng Official and Park Superintendent. 'fhere has recently been a concern expressed by even applicants for various Community Center positions reluctant to consider employment with the City unless additional vacation could be arranged. I believe the adjustment to our first year accumulation is a long overdue change that needs to be made to make ourselves more competitive in the employment market today. On an annual basis, this becomes a small percentage of the total employment package but it could go a long ways towards attracting good candidates. Even additional accumulation for other years of service such as adding days after 20 or 25 years does not become a big expense to the City in that no additional funding may be necessary to incorporate this into the benefit package for all employees unless it is for a position that would require somebody to be brought in to cover in that person's absence. That is not the case in most vacation usage and therefore adding this type of benefit docs not really increase the City's budget costs other than the lack of that person's productivity for that time period. . 1 . . . Council Agenda - 12/13/99 B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Amend the personnel policy regarding vacation schedule by increasing the first year vacation schedule to ten days. This would be in line with most communities we surveyed. 2. Council could amend the first year accumulation to ten days and also add an additional step after 20 years by adding 3 'is hours per month (25 days a year). This alternative would bring the beginning accumulation in line with surrounding communities and also adjust the top end to correspond with higher vacation allowances found in other communities. 3. The Council could determine that no additional adjustments are warranted. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: My initial recommendation is that the Council consider amendments to at least the first year of employment by adding five days to the vacation schedule. I believe the survey is a good indication that our present policy may be out of date and puts us at a disadvantage when trying to be competitive with surrounding communities. Since the entire schedule has not been amended in over 20 years, I would also recommend that the Council consider adding the additional five days to the schedule for employees with 20 years or more of service. These changes would not affect our 2000 budget in that additional funds would not need to be budgeted at this time as a result of these changes. D. SUPPORTING DATA: Surrounding communities vacation policy. 2 Council Agenda - 12/13/99 9. Consideration of salary schedule adjustments for 2000. (R W) . A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: As part of the ongoing maintenance of our current salary system in use for all non-union employees, the City Council should annually review the salary schedule and make adjustments in order to retain the City's pay relationship to the market. With Monday's meeting being the last scheduled meeting before 2000, adjustments to the salary schedule should be adopted by the Council at this meeting in order to allow for implementation of the new schedule by the first payroll in January. As part of the 2000 budget process I again included an additional 5% in the salary budget for potential cost of living adjustments, step increases and any other position adjustments or revisions that may be necessary due to various job changes. This amount should be sufficient to cover any increases that are being considered, but it docs not mean the Council is obligated to a 5% increase. As we have done in the past, it is recommended that the increase be reilective of the cost of living increases that are occurring that other employers have granted or are considering and also be comparable to increases other communities may have used to keep us competitive with the market in surrounding communities. This last factor is becoming more important as I feel our current pay structure may be falling behind current market conditions, not only within other cities but also the general employment market that exists today. . As you may recall, our present comparable worth base system was adopted by the City Council in 1991 in order to comply with the new comparable pay worth law that was in effect at that time. The City used the services of the League of Minnesota Cities personnel department to modify our job descriptions, create a grade and step system and develop a pay scale based on market conditions at that time. Our present program includes 22 grades with 6 potential steps within each grade that all City employees could fall within. Initially the consultant had recommended a seven step system, but the Council choose to eliminate the seventh step at the time the original program was adopted. This ineHect immediately cut approxii1mtcly 4.2% fmm the top pay for each grade. In effect, this put our pay system 4.2% behind the current market con~~d on the league study. . Since our current pay system allowed for step increases by employees who may not have reached the maximum step of their grade, the Council does not necessarily have to be concerned with individual ~erit/perf~rma adjustmenfs, ~ut really needs to address .,:hat percentage increase woul~ be appropriate. lor the entIre salary schedule 111 generaL Most commumhes we have surveyed make adjustments to theIr salary schedule in a like manner by adjusting the entire schedule by a certain percentage annually. This attempts to keep the pay structure in line with cost ofliving adjustments and hopefully helps to keep up with current market conditions. With the current economy being in good shape and with unemployment at the lowest level in recent years, we are finding that it is more difficult to retain and/or hire new employees when openings occur. For example, the I iquor store has had difficulty for a number of years in attracting qualified applicants for part-time clerk positions and we have had to make adjustments to their part-time pay system to get qualified candidates. In the past year or so, we have also experienced a similar drop in interest for job openings even within City Hall for part-time and full-time positions. We currently have an opening in our Sewer and Water Department to replace John Middendorf who recently resigned. When John was hired a few years ago, we had 30 or 40 applications for that position whereas now we had only received 5 or 6. The first choice for that position turned down the job offer because we weren't able to pay him a high enough starting wage. We are readvertising lex this position in a Council Agenda - 12/13/99 . wider area hoping to get more qualified candidates. A similar pattern had occurred within the Street Department when we recently hired an additional employee. In the past when openings had occurred in our Parks or Street Department we would get a 100-125 applications. This last time, we only received 25. I think this is a sign of the good economic conditions and also it reflects on our current pay system which may not have kept up with what other employers have to pay to keep qualified and attract good employees. I n the past, the Council has used the Minneapolis/St. Paul consumer price indexes as the current inflationary rate for the metro area. The current CPIU, Consumer Price Index for Urban consumers, IS at 2.6% on an annual basis. The Minneapolis/St. Paul indexes are only calculated twice a year for annual purposes, and this 2.6% increase covers the time period from June 1998 to June 1999. Likewise, the US CPIU as of October 1999 is also between 2.6% or 2.7% on an annual basis. In addition the CPI information, we also have conducted a brief survey again of various surrounding communities, including the cities of Big Lake, Bullalo, Elk River, Maple Grove and Plymouth. These are the same communities we have surveyed in the past, and this information can be helpful for the Council to see what is happening in other communities around us. At the time of the survey, some communities had not established salary adjustments for next year and you may note that most are proposing or have received around 3%. As additional information, I have also enclosed a history of recent years salary adjustments adopted by the Council compared to the reported CIP increases for those particular years. . Any adjustments to the current salary schedule adopted by the Council will only affect non-union employees as of 1-1-2000. Language that has been included in our last three or four union contract renewals indicate that adjustments to the union's pay scale is based on the same percentage increase as granted to non-union employees, except that the union is granted a minimum of lh % annually. Any adjustment would not take place until the annual renewal date of their contract which is April 1 st of each year. This concept has been beneficial in one respect in that it allows us to make sure that the comparable worth law is not violated by ensuring one bargaining group doesn't receive increases that may put the comparable worth plan out of compliance. The following factors, which I have noted in previous years, are important items for the Council to remember when considering pay scale adjustments. I may have even mentioncd some ofthesc issues earlier in this agenda item. 1. The comparable worth study adopted in 1991 had originally recommended each grade consist of seven steps from the bottom to the top of the wage scale. The seven step system was recommended by the league personnel consultant and was based on the average metro/rural steps used by other communities with similar pay systems. At the time of adoption of the new pay system, the Council had made the decision to drop the seventh step, which in effect reduced the potential salary structure of the city by a little over 4%. Since the original recommendation and purpose of the comparable worth study was to keep us consistent with the market for our area, the Council had in effect, immediately made a reduction in our market study by 4%. While this may not be a lot, I believe we are seeing some effects from this reduction in todays market in our difficulty in getting sufficient applications for hiring to fill positions within the City. If the Council wanted to keep our system at six steps, I would recommend that the first step simply be eliminated and the new step at the top of the scale be added that would in effect be . 2 . . B. Council Agenda - 12/13/99 approximately 4.2% higher. Just simply adding the seventh step back at approximately 4.2% more than step six would also be beneficial, ifthere is f1exibility in allowing a starting position to be adjusted depending on the qualifications of an individual. 2. [n order to keep our comparable worth pay scale in line with the market conditions of surrounding cities, it appears that adjustments in the area of 3% are going to be the norm. 3. As more and more employees reach the top of their steps within the present grade after five years or so, these employees are relying on the cost of living adjustments as the only increase in their salary unless their job descriptions or duties change sufficiently to warrant a move to a different step or grade. 4. The consumer price index may not be a perfect method of determining inflationary trends, it is a basis that has been used by the Council in the past in an attempt to keep our pay system in line with inflation. 5. Since our initial comparable worth study and market analysis was performed nine years ago, it may be beneficial to conduct or hire a consultant to do another market study to see how our positions rate in comparison to the pay systems of other communities. While maybe everybody is experiencing problems today in attracting and keeping good employees, we have lost some employees to better paying jobs and we have noticed a drop in applicants and interest in city positions recently. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The Council could establish a cost of living adjustment for the pay scale that would apply to the entire non-union pay system that is in line with the Minneapolis/St. Paul CIP. According to my current information, this would be in the range of2.6% to 2.7%. In addition, the Council could add the seventh step to the pay system for each grade which would increase the top pay within each grade by an additional 4.2%. 2. The Council could establish a cost of living adjustment for the pay scale in accordance with the Minneapolis/St. Paul CPI at approximately 3% and add back to the pay system the seventh step that is implemented in two phases over the next two years for any employee who is already at the top of their grade. This would establish the additional grade in line with the recommendations back in 1991 but allows the city to stay within our proposed 2000 budget limits with the 5% allowance I had included in the budget proposal. 3. The Council could adjust cost of living based on some other factor in addition to the CPI index. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: . After reviewing the survey information of surrounding communities regarding proposed or actual salary adjustments being scheduled for 2000, and based on the CPI information that is available, it would be 3 Council Agenda - 12/13/99 . my recommendation that the Council adjust the salary pay system by an additional 3%. In addition, r believe it is becoming more important to also add thc seventh step back to our pay system which might make it easier to attract and/or retain employees because of market conditions. It is the recommendation of the City Administrator that the Council consider alternative #2 which allows the City to stay within its budget. D.

Consideration of adoptin2 a membership benefit packa2e for community center employees. (KB) . A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: City Council is being asked to consider a membership benefit package for the employees of the community center. I believe that such a package will be a benefit not only to the employees of the community center but also be beneficial to the community center and its effective operation. 1. An employee membership benefit provides an attractive incentive as we are recruiting eligible candidates. It will also be a useful tool in retaining quality employees. 2. An employee membership benefit provides employees, especially new ones, a hands-on training opportunity for the facility and what it has to offer. Employees will be more knowledgeable and enthusiastic in their dealings with visitors and members requesting information or in membership sales. 3. An employee membership benefit provides the community center with more "eyes" in the facility. Allowing the employees to use the facility will help us with security ofirnproper use of the facility, offer insight into what our members and guests like and don't like and may alert the staff to a potential problem (maintenance, cleaning, etc) before it actually becomes a problem. This package was discussed extensively by the Small Group. The benefits were clear and the group was definitely in agreement that this benefit should be available to community center employees. The next step was to try to put together a package that would be attractive and yet equitable. The following package is what the Small Group agreed to bring to the City Council for consideration: .1. Full-time Community Center employees: a. Free individual three (3) month pass. b. To upgrade to family pass, the employee would pay the difference between an individual and a family rate for the 3 month pass. c. This benefit is renewable every three months. d. The membership benefit would be terminated if the employee leaves the community center. 2. Part-time Community Center employees: a. Benefit would only be available to employees scheduled at least 20 hours or more per month. b. Eligible employees can purchase an individual three (3) month pass at a 50% discount. c. To upgrade to a family pass, the employee would pay the difference between an individual and a family rate for a 3 month pass. d. This benefit is renewable every three months as long as the criterion is met. e. The membership benefit would be terminated if the employee leaves the community center. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The first alternative would be to approve the Community Center employee membership benefit package as written. 2. The second alternative would be not approve the Community Center employee membership benefit package and send it back to the Small Group with recommendations or alternatives. . C.

City Council Agenda -12/13/99 Consideration of adopting an agreement between the City and Ocello. LLC regarding mitieation pond and land exchanee. A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: City Council is asked to consider adopting an agreement with Ocello, LLC (Groveland land holders) outlining terms associated with exchanging land areas and shifting pond locations in conjunction with the Highway 25 project and in conjunction with preparation of commercial land for development on Chelsea west. The concepts supporting this agreement were reviewed by the City Council some months ago at which time City staff was directed to prepare details regarding the exchange. Attached you will find the agreement which spells out terms, along with attachments that articulate the land exchange. In summary, the City Council is asked to swap land it owns adjacent to the future Chelsea right-of-way in upland areas for land that the City would otherwise need to purchase as ponding/wetland mitigation area in conj unction with the Highway 25 project. As part of this arrangement, the land adjacent to Chelsea would be owned by Emmerich who would pay the front footage cost for street development. [f the City were to retain this parcel, the cost for the adjacent roadway would be paid by the City. As part of the deal, Ocello agrees to complete pond/wetland mitigation activity at a cost of $40,000, which is a cost the City would otherwise be required to pay under the Highway 25 project. The material excavated for the pond will be used to raise the level of the commercial site. This arrangement also results in efficient filling of the land that will then be useable for commercial development. Please see the attached agreement and map data for detail. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to adopt agreement regarding mitigation pond and land exchange between the City of Monticello and Ocello, LLC, contingent on completion of agreement exhibits and contingent on final review by the city Attorney, City Engineer and stafr. Under this alternative, City staff and consultants will review the proposal for possible additions, details, etc. If there are no substantive changes needed as determined by staff, the agreement will be executed. In the event there are elements in the arrangementthat need further discussion, the item will be brought back to Council. 2. Motion to deny or table adoption of this agreement. City Council Agenda -12/13/99 . c. STAFF RECOMMENDATION It is the view of the City Administrator that the basic elements of the agreement are clearly spelled out and addressed in the agreement, therefore it is appropriate to approve it at this time. However, for added comfort, sta1T would like to review the agreement prior to execution. Ifchangesare needed, the item will be brought back to Council at the first regular meeting in January. D.

Some months ago the City Council reviewed a request by the Parks Commission to dedicate outlot A of Country Club Manor for a soccer complex. The City Council acknowledged the need for field space but directed staff to seek an alternative location. During recent months, City staiThas been exploring ideas for cooperating with NSP and Wright County at a site near Montissippi Park as one option. We have also had discussions with the School District Administration regarding development of field space in areas at and adjacent to the school campus. Based on various factors reviewed by the Parks Commission, the focus has moved toward working with the School District on development offield space. Factors pointing toward a School/City cooperative effort include the following: I. Cost An adequate amount of field spaee is available already purchased and served with utilities. Some parking is available. Field development will not require huge investments in site grading or utility extensions. 2. Dual use/Efficient use of field Space Cooperating with the School in development of additional soccer fields for use by soccer in the summer wi II also yield addition soccer/football practice space for use by the school in the fall. 3. Field proximity, centralization of fields. The School District campus along with the East side freeway fields could support up to 5 fields for soccer use in the summer time. There are also 4 softbal1!baseball fields that could be used as soccer fields (2 fields) when needed for tournament play. The School District has acted to approve in concept an expenditure of $30,000+ for field development contingent on the City kicking in its 1999 budget amount of $30,000. -1- INFORMATIONAL ITEM DECEMBER 13,1999 By Ollie Koropchak, Economic Development Director ~ Twin City Die Castings - As you may have noticed, grading has not commenced on this industrial project. On November 19, staffmet with Jay Eller, the general contractor, and architect to review the state ofthe project. The group discussed how to comply with the Uniform Building Code for Flammable Solids and yet meet the desires of the company while ensuring the ability to expand in the future. Through determination of the process and flow of production for the magnesium die casting and machining areas, a fire protection engineer will develop a Fire Protection Program for compliance of the Uniform Building Code. The company has been fiustrated with the process of finding a qualified consultant. The owners want to do the project right; however, they elect not to commence grading until a Program has been developed and accepted by both the City and Twin City Die Castings. It is hoped, construction will commence yet in December. The company has purchased the land. The Minnesota Investment Fund application from the City of Monticello requesting $460,000 was submitted to the Office of the Minnesota Trade and Economic Development on November 24. In recent conversation with Carol Pressley-Olson, the State is reviewing the application which was based on the job and wage goals outlined by Twin City Die Castings. Because the State recently amended their criteria for the amount of dollars available per each job and wage goal outlined, our application request was increased to $500,000. The interest rate ofthe loan from the City to Twin City Die was determined to be 4%. Also, the State is in the process of reviewing the Industrial Revenue Bond application. Aroplax Corporation - The EDA-GMEF Loan of$100,000 approved for the Aroplax expansion closed on December 6 at Steams Bank in St. Cloud. The tip-up panels for the 14,000 sq ft expansion are in place.

Sunny Fresh Foods - DAT met with company representatives relative to Design Guidelines in the CCD and the proposed 17,000 sq ft expansion to the south side of their production facility.

MEMO TO: City Council FROM: Kitty Baltos, Community Center Director DATE: December 10, 1999 RE: Community Center Hiring I am happy to inform you that we have hired our three full-time employees for the community center. Our Lead Building Custodian is James Hanawalt from Monticello, our Lead Guest Services Associate is Karin Meyer from Monticello and our Building Custodian is Kenneth Prihulla from Big Lake. Each of them come to us with great experience and references. I believe that we now have an excellent foundation for our team at the community center. We're now faced with the awesome task of filling the part-time positions. We have had a lot of interest from the public in these positions and I believe that we could see 100 or more applicants for the positions we have available. To make this process less time consuming and more efficient, I have recommend to the Small Group and have gotten their approval, that we set up a Job Fair. Individuals interested in employment can come in and fill out an application. They will then have a short interview with one person from a panel of interviewees. After the Job Fair is done, we will pull out the best applications and hire those individuals. Cub Foods hires their employees in this fashion and have found it to be very successful. I have also gotten valuable assistance from Joe Sass, the Cub Foods store manager, as I make arrangements. The Job Fair will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday, December 28th and 29th from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. in the Mississippi Room (banquet room) at the community center. The interview panel will be made up from city staff, the Small Group and two of our new employees. If any of the Council is interested in participating in the panel, please let me know at 271-3268. I would welcome your support and input.
