MINUTES REGULAR MEETING • MONTICELLO CITY COUNCIL Monday, March 28, 1994 • 7 p.m. Members Present: Igen Maus, Shirley Anderson, Brad Fyle, Clint Herbst, Patty Olsen Members Absent: None 2. Consideration of aonroval of minutes of the regular meeting held March 14. 1994. Brad Fyle requested a correction to item #11. He noted that he voted against the motion, and Clint Herbst voted for the motion. The following sentence should be added to the second to the last paragraph: "Status reports on park projects implemented with the approval of the City Administrator should be provided to the City Council accordingly." A motion was made by Clint Herbst and seconded by Shirley Anderson to approve the minutes of the March 14 meeting as amended. Motion carried unanimously. Citizens commenWoetitions. reouests. and comolaints. Richard Carlson indicated his concern regarding the City's plan to plat Outlots C and D and install utilities for the purpose of developing a residential subdivision. It was his view that the City should not be the developer and that citizens would be better served if the City would simply sell the land to a private developer. Shirley Anderson noted that the property continues to be available for sale at a price equal to the existing debt against the property owed to the City. Consideration of annroval of the nreliminary ulnt of the Eastwood Knoll residential subdivision. ADnlicant. Citv of Monticello. City Council reviewed the preliminary plat of the Eastwood Knoll residential subdivision. Patty Olsen was concerned that the City has not accounted for all of the costs associated with development of the property. For instance, the annual taxes on each unsold lot is $532 per lot. Are these lots tax exempt because they are owned by the City, or will the City need to add this additional cost to the figures? She wondered if there isn't an easier way to develop this Page 1 Council Minutes - 3/28/94 property in the manner desired by the City. Perhaps it could be platted with restrictive covenants and then sold for development by others. Clint Herbst mentioned that if any developer was willing to pay the debt against this property, then the City should consider selling it. Herbst also noted that. this type of development is long overdue. We need upgraded homes and lots that exceed the 12,000 sq ft minimum. It's worth the gamble to invest in this type of development. Bruce Berning, resident of the Meadow Oak area, noted that the design of the plat is different from the original subdivision design for the area because it includes a road that connects to the Briar Oakes area. This means that a considerable amount of additional traffic will be passing through the existing neighborhood that was not contemplated under the original plan. He was concerned about the impact of the added traffic created by this new design on his neighborhood. Jeff O'Neill, Assistant Administrator, noted that the public hearing notice mistakenly included the outline of the original subdivision plan for the area. This information could have misled people into not coming to the public hearing. Perhaps the City should consider issuing a new public hearing notice calling for a public hearing with the Planning Commission prior to the next Council meeting. After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst to approve the preliminary plat of Eastwood Knoll as submitted. Motion died for lack of a second. A motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Patty Olsen to table further consideration of the preliminary plat and direct City staff to prepare design alternatives that would reduce traffic through the existing neighborhood, and direct staff to notify area residents of upcoming meetings regarding this issue accordingly. Motion carried unanimously. 5. Consideration of rezonine Outlot8 C and D of the Meadow Oak subdivision from R -PUD to R-1. Apalicant. City of Monticello. A motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Clint Herbst to table the matter. Motion carried unanimously. 6. Consideration of n resolution ordering plans and specifications for Eastwood Knoll subdivision, Applicant, City of Monticello. It was the consensus of Council to table further development of plans and specifications until the final design of the plat has been identified. Page 2 Council Minutes - 3/28/94 Discussion regarding the merits of the City completing the project was discussed again. Various methods for completing the sale of the property were discussed. Staff was directed to outline in an upcoming agenda item methods or strategies for marketing the property. Receive update on status of RFP process - Outlot A. Country Club Manor Assistant Administrator O'Neill informed Council that the City received two proposals for development of Outlot A, Country Club Manor. He requested that Council call for a special meeting to review the proposals in detail. It was the consensus of Council to conduct a special meeting scheduled for April 12, 1994, at 4 p.m. 8. Consideration of anorovine and authorizing advertisement of community arena design studv RFP. O'Neill informed Council that it was the consensus of the community arena task force that the City should hire a consultant to assist the task force and the City in developing a final design and cost estimates for the ice arena. The information generated by the report will become the basis of the referendum and the basis of a possible design build construction process. O'Neill noted that the community arena group will be providing the cash necessary to conduct the study and is requesting that the investment in the study be counted as a portion of the $100,000 contribution requirement. Clint Herbst noted that the arena must be a block structure. A steel pole shed is not a good idea. We need to get a better idea of what the facility will cost. Shirley Anderson mentioned her opposition to having the City conduct the study. It was her view that if the City conducts the study, it will be viewed as the City supporting the community arena, and she did not want to give that impression. Clint Herbst mentioned that he supported the study; however, it was his view that the cost to conduct the study should be in addition to the $100,000 requirement. After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and seconded by Shirley Anderson to adopt the following resolution: RESOLUTION 94.10 WHEREAS, the City of Monticello has established a conditional authorization to conduct a general referendum on a community arena; and Page 3 Council Minutes - 3/28/94 WHEREAS, the City of Monticello is responsible for building and managing the facility if the referendum passes; and WHEREAS, the responsibility of building and maintaining the facility requires participation by the City in the planning prucess; and WHEREAS, adoption of this resolution does not constitute support or opposition to the development of the community arena; and WHEREAS, the City will not he expending City funds to hire the consultant completing the design study. THEREFORE, LET IT BE RESOLVED that the City of Monticello hereby approves the request for proposals for preliminary design and planning consultation for the Monticello Community Arena and authorizes the advertisement of the RFP subject to the community arena association funding the cost of the study apart from and in addition to the $100,000 contribution requirement. Adopted this 28th day of March, 1994. Motion carried unanimously. 9. Consideration of adopting a resolution aaoroving feasibility study for phase IV of the Cardinal Hills residential subdivision and calline for a aublic hearing on associated School Boulevard oathwav improvements. Bret Weiss, City Engineer, reviewed the feasibility study in detail and outlined the proposed pathway locations outside the boundaries of phase IV of Cardinal Hills subdivision. After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Patty Olsen to approve the resolution and direct the City Engineer to provide a trail connection to the property south of the site at an alignment outside of the existing wetland to the south. Motion carried unanimously. SEE RESOLUTION 94-11. 10. Consideration of replacing riding lawn mower and snowblower for city hall. John Simola, Public Works Director, reported that the Honda riding lawn mower and Toro snowblower used for maintaining various city grounds are in need of replacement. The existing units are about eight years old and are at the end of their design life. In preparation for these purchases, the City budgeted $3,000 for a mower replacement and $1,400 for a snowblower replacement. Page 4 Council Minutes - 3/28/94 Simola noted that he obtained two quotes for replacement of the mower, one from Moon Motors for $3,008 and one from Northern Hydraulics for $2,955. For the snowblower, he obtained a price of $1,700, which is $300 over the budgeted amount for the unit desired. Clint Herbst stated that he thought $3,000 is too expensive for a lawn mower. Herbst noted that he is aware of a John Deere lawn mower at Scharber's that costs about $2,200. Ken Maus noted that the City owes it to ourselves to explore options. After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and seconded by Patty Olsen to table the matter and direct staff to obtain additional quotes for mower and snowblower equipment. Motion carried unanimously. 11. Consideration of bids and ouotes for replacement of 1978 International plow truck. After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Clint Herbst to table the matter. Motion carried unanimously. 12. Consideration of erantine a bum ine permit allowine maintenance of the prairie erass planting at the Tappers. Inc.. -industrial site. Assistant Administrator O'Neill reported that in September of 1990, the City Council authorized the establishment of a prairie grass planting in lieu of sod at the Tappers, Inc., development site. In order to maintain the prairie grass planting as required by Council, a controlled burn of the site must be conducted every few years. The burn will be conducted by Prairie Restorations out of Princeton. After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and seconded by Patty Olsen to authorize issuance of a prairie grass burning permit. Motion carried unanimously. 13. Consideration of allowing the fire department to conduct a controlled prairie grass burn - Dnthwnv Droiect. Assistant Administrator O'Neill informed Council that in conjunction with development of the pathway between River Street and Jerry Liefert Drive, it is proposed that the fire department conduct a controlled burn of the grasses in this area to encourage rejuvenation of native prairie grasses found along the pathway route. O'Neill reported that according to Biologist Paul Jackson from Prairie Restorations of Princeton, due to the isolation of the grassy areas provided by the railroad right-of-way and County Road 75, portions of the pathway route have retained many of the characteristics of Page 5 Council Minutes - 3/28/94 the original oak savanna prairie that once extended along the Mississippi River up through Monticello. The purpose of the burn would be to help rejuvenate prairie grasses, thereby adding another positive dimension to the pathway project. After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Patty Olsen to allow the fire department to conduct a controlled burn sometime between April 1 and May 15 along selected sections of the pathway between Jerry Liefert Drive and River Street. Motion carried unanimously. 14. Consideration of ratifvine EDA's approval to amend the Non -Performance Provision for GMEF Loan No. 007. 011ie Koropchak, Economic Development Director, reported that the City Council is requested to consider ratification of the Economic Development Authority's approval to amend the Non -Performance Provision of Loan No. 007. The Non -Performance Provision amendment is proposed to extend the loan disbursement date to June 1, 1994. The need to extend the time for disbursement stems from delays in delivery of the equipment funded through the loan. After discussion, a motion was made by Shirley Anderson and seconded by Patty Olsen to ratify the EDA's approval to amend the Non -Performance Provision of GMEF Loan No. 007 by extending the disbursement date to June 1, 1994. Motion carried unanimously. 15. Consideration of bills for the month of March. After discussion, a motion was made by Clint Herbst and seconded by Patty Olsen to approve payment of bills as submitted. Motion carried unanimously. Jeff O'Neill Assistant Administrator Pago 6 Z Council Agenda - 4/11/94 Update on phase II of the Monticello Public Works facilities expansion. (J.S.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: At the January 24, 1994, meeting, the City Council authorized OSM to prepare plans and specifications for phase II of the public works facility expansion, working with the building committee, consisting of Councilmember Fyle, Councilmember Herbst, the Public Works Director, and the Street and Parks Superintendent. The project for phase 11 consists of three separate parts, having a total budget allocation of $380,000. Part 1 is the addition of a sand/salt storage structure. The sand/salt structure is being bid as an alternate with an additional option to have a 3 -sided fixture to control costs. The second portion is the connection of the two existing buildings with the addition of an oil storage room and a wash bay. The third part of the construction involves adding onto the front portion of the existing shop facing County Road 39. This addition will consist of a lunch room, handicap accessible restrooms with showers, and a meeting/training room. A copy of the building layout is enclosed for your review. Doug Wild and Bill Zerfas of OSM will give a short presentation at the meeting bringing the City Council up to date with the current design. The building committee wishes to get the Council's approval before completing the final plans and cost analysis, which we expect to have before the City Council on April 25, the next regularly scheduled meeting. v \\ �o.s.[o ti+[s Icic•It •m. rtwrt �I I I� ^ y P "Gds ----------------------I F, - L 17 CAMPUS PLAN (REMODELING) Public Works Department Expansion and Renovation Phase II Yondeello, Vinnnota, CAMPUS KEY PLAN B I =1�1rr �.en CAMPUS PLAN (OFMO) CONTRACT DOCUMENTS /N 1 SITE PLAN KEY NOTES 1 `� A1.1 IS FLOOR PLAN AT SALT/SAND \\ � app. YYRMaR'O1UR F' �1 (I Public Works Department. ^"CAD° " I Expansion and Renovation Phase It r\ Monticello, Yinnnote. wCIO CaD WCAMPUS KEY ALAN d /4- FLOOR PLAN AT OFFICE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS A2.2 c Council Agenda - 4/11/94 s. Consideration of orouosals to do interior renovations of the existing Monticello Senior Citizens Center. (G.A.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND Attached you will find two letters from the Monticello Senior Citizens Board of Directors highlighting their concerns for some work that is proposed to be done by some members of the Monticello Lions Club and other non-profit organizations. The bulk of the work will be performed by the Monticello Lions Club as follows. The Lions Club is proposing to strip all the interior walls of the existing carpeting and dark -colored paneling. After the material is stripped from the walls, they'll check for the consistency of the product to be applied over that, if additional furring strips or interior rigid foam insulation need to be applied on the interior block walls. The walls will receive a 1/2 inch sheetrock wall covering with the bottom portion approximately 32 inches to receive a lighter -colored paneling applied over the sheetrock to resemble a wainscoting effect. The Senior Citizens Center Board of Directors is also proposing to have some work done with the existing ceiling. A couple of methods are proposed for that. The first method would be to spray the ceiling with an insulated white filum and add new fluorescent light fixtures with the approprinte plastic coverings. The second alternative would he to install a suspended ceiling with drop-in ceiling grid light fixtures installed in different locations in the ceiling. I mel with Monticello Senior Citizens Center Director, Pam Loidolt, and Lions Club representative, Bruce Gagnelius, to go over some concerns that I felt should he priority items to be addressed prior to cosmetic renovations to the walls and/or the ceiling. First of till, we have two bathrtonns with one toilet and one sink in each. The current number of fixtures dues not meet the minimum requirements of the state plumbing code. The existing hathroonns, even though they are handicap equipped, have just it small partition stall in it with no door fior privacy and an incorrect door layout, as the doors swing in rather than out. To accommodate some minimum fixture requirennents per the slate plumbing code division and to install the minimum workable areas to the ADA requirements (American Disabilities Act), the exterior walls of the existing hathruoms should he extended out approximately 3 1/2 ft to the south. In doing so, the existing entrance door from the east would have to be relocated to fit in the existing glass block window opening just. south of the east entrance door. The existing wall coverings in the bathrooms consist of carpeting to some formica on the walls Chat is coming loose. To add un additional water closet, in the women's bathroom and an additional urinal in the men's bathroom would require the Council Agenda - 4/11/94 existing inlaid linoleum he taken out so additional plumbing piping can be installed to accommodate these two new fixtures. Currently, the existing heat run and bathroom vent fan in the men's bathroom are not hooked up The existing furnace room area is also used as a storage area. With that area being very small, the proposal is to extend the wall out equal to the bathroom wall extension to allow additional space to store dry and liquid product goods atter the walls receive a protective sheetrock covering. The existing covering is insulated Build-righte sheathing that is painted along with sonic open wall studs. Secondly, the next most important thing to look at would be to get some covering for protecting our existing roof deck ceiling joist. Currently what exists is insulated Build-righte sheathing nailed to the existing ceiling joist, and then the existing Build-righte has been painted. To meet the minimum requirements for protection of the existing ceiling joist members would require applying a minimum of one layer of 5/8 inch ruck over the existing Build-righte sheathing or would require a suspended ceiling tile system with 1 -hour rated ceiling tile installed in areas where we don't have the suspended ceiling light fixtures. The Lions Club is also proposing to remove all of the glass block areas which currently let sonic light into the main area, and the H -Window Company will provide the windows to fill in these block window openings. As of the writing of this agenda supplement, not all of the bids for constructing interior renovations have been received. With the nice weather Chat we've had over the past week or so, the contractors are taking advantage of it as the frost is coming out of the ground, and they are getting into full swing of this construction season. However, with today ( Friday) being rainy with wet conditions, the chances of receiving those today or Monday for sure, the additional bids that we're waiting for, they will be forthcoming. Additional information will he provided with the additional bids that we'll be receiving over the weekend on this project and will be highlighted to you in their entirety at the City Council meeting on Monday. If time allows to get it better idea of what currently exists over there, the City staff will be trying to do an interior video review for you to be presented at the Council meeting. The video presentation will give you an idea, if you haven't been to the Senior Citizens Center lately, of some of the existing conditions and how the proposed renovations by the senior citizens of the Monticello Senior Citizens Center and the bions Club and other volunteer members and private industry donations will come together to formulate a very worthwhile project for an added investment to the existing senior citizens building, which the City currently owns. Council Agenda - 4/11/94 13. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Approve the Senior Citizens Center Board of Directors' request to allow the Lions Club and other non-profit organizations to help and also allow private industry to donate materials and perform interior and exterior renovations at the Monticello Senior Citizens Center. 2. Deny the Scuior Citizens Center Board of Directors' request to allow the Lions Club and other non-profit organizations to help and also allow private industry to donate materials and perform interior and exterior renovations at the Monticello Senior Citizens Center. 3. Approve from a list to be presented of work items to he completed and submitted for your review at the Monday Council meeting, additional work proposed by City staff. The proposed work would be upgrading of the existing bathrooms and existing ceiling in the main area of the Senior Citizens Center. These improvements will help bring our existing senior citizens building complex into conformance with the minimum state building code, state plumbing code, and Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) minimum requirements. 4. Deny approval of the list of work items proposed by City staff. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: City staff recommends at the minimum the City Council consider minimum improvements to upgrade our existing bathroom facilities fund our ceiling coverings of the existing Monticello Senior Citizens Center to meet the minimum requirements of the state building code, state plumbing code, and the Americans With Disabilities Actminimum requirements. Money has not been budgeted at. this time to cover those expenses: however, the City Administrator will highlight some areas of some possible funding sources for that. City stuff is appreciative of the Monticello Senior Citizens Board of Directors and the Monticello Lions Club members for their interest in making some minimum improvements to the senior citizens building which the City of Monticello owns. However, we feel that the existing bathrooms and the existing ceilings should be completed first prior to considering the Senior Citizens Board of Directors and the lions Club Inlxwr and materials donations to other work within the building. D. SUPPORTING DATA: Copy of the two letters from the Monticello Senior Citizens Board of Directors. Bid proposals not received in time for the agenda packet will be presented at Monday's meeting. �AorlticeJ/ Monticello Senior Center Zi;107 Cedar Street, Monticello, MN 55362 Senior Carder Phone: (612) 295-2000 TO: Monticello City Council Members FROM: Monticello Senior Center Board of Directors: Doris Angell. Ruby bensen, Gladys Bitzer, Sister Emilie Bormann, Bruce Gagnelius, Cliff Knutson, Marguerite Peterson, Mel Rosnow and Ben Smith SUBJ: Ceiling and Lighting Renovation at the Monticello Senior Center DATE: March 24, 1994 This spring, the senior center, with the help of the Monticello Lions Club and the H -Window Company, are going to re -do the existing carpeted walls with new sheetrock and update the electrical boxes and outlets. Also, the H -Window Company has donated all new triple glazed windows as replacements for the existing openings. As a result of this. we have noticed that the current lighting does not meet applicable safety codes as the bulbs are not covered for protection. We further have wished to cosmetically upgrade the present ceiling, which is in dire need of re -doing. The first alternative Is to spray the ceiling with an insulated white foam, and add now flourescent fixtures with appropriate plastic coverings. The bid is as follows: Industrial Coatings of Rogers - ceiling $3,63U.U0 Lighting Plus - light fixtures _2,825.40 Total $6,455.90 An alternative and we feel a more esthetically sound and easier application would be to install a suspended ceiling with plastic pnnels under the existing lighting fixtures. The cost for this approach is as follows: Materials (Simonson Lumber) $2,415.57 Labor to install .3,48 .00 Total $5.900.57 We feel leaving the current wiring, duct work, etc., accessibility and relative ease of installation coupled with a savings of' $555.33, makes the suspended ceiling option the beat approach. Since we are already actively working and raising funds to upgrade the walls, electric service and windows, we feel this is an appropriate time to ask for your assistance in doing something about the ceiling, so that when fininhed this spring, the entire public area of the building will have a face lift. We also feel that when completed, this only odds to the value of a city owned building for further use and resale. We all feel that we have not asked for or received any funds in over three years, over and above the contracted amount, for building improvement. With the com- munity now willing to help us, we do need your help to finish the project. Your consideration is greatly appreciated. We are on the agenda for the City Council meeting of March 28th and will be attending to answer any questions you may have. — We Propose h«.bY 1-1.0l motii and Jabot te.npl.l.

Senior Center Coordinator SUBJ: Amendment to Memo from Board of Directors of March 24, 1994 DATE: April 6, 1994 After meeting with City Building Inspector Gary Anderson, we need to amend our memo addressing the senior center remodeling issue. Gary informed us that in keeping with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the bathrooms in the senior center must be brought up to code. This will Involve expanding both bathrooms which will necessitate moving the front door approximately six feet south nr the current location. Gary has an estimate of $3.340 to cover the cost of putting in stalls and the plumbing. This project would also involve putting in a new sidewalk to line up with the new front door. Gary also recommended that if putting in a suspended ceiling we should extend the heating/air conditioning ducts to the north and south to more efficiently heat and cool the senior center. Jeff O'Neil requested that we address the senior center building renovation issue at the April 11th City Council meeting instead of the March 28th meeting. Several senior center representatives will be present at your April 11th meeting to further discuss this issue and to answer Questions you may have. 04/08/94 00:55 FAA 497426.1 B D PLI'MBISG ®002 B}LLY DALEIDEN B & D PLUMBING & HEATING, INC.

Consideration of approval of the oreliminary Dint of the Eastwood Knoll residential subdivision. Applicant. Citv of Monticello. (R.W.) REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Since this item was discussed at length at the previous Council meeting but Final action was tabled until this meeting, the agenda discussion from the previous meeting is included again for your review, as most of the site plan review items still remain the same and can be used as a refresher. I did not feel it was necessary to repeat the same items over again and will attempt to have my agenda deal with the new issues the Council wanted to address regarding this plat. It is my understanding that the City Council tabled action on the preliminary plat request for two basic reasons, one being a concern that the public hearing notice may have been improperly provided to the neighboring property owners, and two, a request by the Council to have the staff and engineer look at any alternatives available for providing an additional outlet from this plat to Meadow Oak Avenue. As far as the public hearing notice is concerned, a new notice has been published, and new notice has been mailed to all of the abutting property owners with the corrected plat supplement. With regard to the concerns expressed by neighboring property owners on traffic congestion with only one outlet from this plat, Bret Weiss again looked at. whether it could be feasibly accomplished to have one of the cul- de-sacs access Meadow Oak Avenue. Again, in looking at the westerly cul- de-sac (Eastwood Court), continuation of this road to Meadow Oak Avenue would still be hampered by grade elevations, which would require more grading than whip is desirable if our efforts were to save trees and t.11e terrain. In light of this, Bret looked at the feasibility of extending the first cul-de-sac (Blackwood Circle) through to Meadow Oak Avenue. From a grade and construction standpoint, this extension would he much easier to accomplish; and with sonic alterations to the lot design, it is feasible to line up the intersection of this road with the Wooderest Circle Drive entering into Briar Oakes and extending it through to Meadow Oak Avenue. The major hurdle at. this point would be to acquire property between this plat and Meadow Oak Avenue, as there ore platted lots abutting Meadow Oak Avenue. Assuming this alternative was selected, the City would have to acquire Lot 2, Block 3, Meadow Oak Estates, in order to accomplish this alternate connection point. Council Agenda - 4/11/94 In further investigating this alternative, 1 have placed a call to the lot owner, Mr. Dickman Knutson, original developer of the Meadow Oak Estates area. As of this time, Mr. Knutson has not returned my call. The attempt. to contact Mr. Knutson was to find out if there would he some possibility of reaching an agreement with him to have the City acquire this lot if this alternative was selected by the Council. Assuming we may not be able to come to an agreement, Council should he aware that this property will in the near future he up for tax forfeiture for non-payment of special assessment and tax debt. 1 confirmed this with Darla Groshens, Wright County Auditor, who indicated that it is her goal to have this property be part of the tax forfeiture sale planned for later on in 1994. In light of this, the City does have a reasonable opportunity to acquire the property at that time, as the County would give us first right of purchase. Since most of the debt against this property is the City's special assessment, debt, we could probably acquire it for approximately $2,000 in back taxes. In addition, the City could try to get this amount lowered even more by requesting that the School District and/or Wright County agree to abate their share of the taxes. As fir its special assessment debt is concerned, the total debt against these lots will be exceeding $28,000 to $29,000 by the time its tax forfeited, and I do not anticipate other property owners willing to purchase these lots for that cost. At this time, the City Council will be asked to decide which alternative for this plat will be in the lest interest of the City and the neighborhood it surrounds, and whether it should continue as originally proposed under the two cul-de-sac arrangement or whether one of the alternatives for a through street connection to Meadow Oak Avenue should he considered. Likewise, the Council will have to decide whether they want to see this plat continued in the manner it, has leen proposed and are comforlahle with the idea of creating larger residential sites for higher -valued homes. Approval of a concept or preliminary plat does not have to necessarily commit the City to being the developer of the entire project but would indicate that the Council is comfortable with the plan as proposed and wants to see it developed in this manner no mutter who is the actual owner. Should the Council decide on ane of the alternates nvailuble for having two outlets to the property, we may have to look at the possibility of doing the project in two phases if we are unable to acquire the property necessary to connect the through street to Meadow Oak Avenue. 'this may not necessarily be it detriment in doing the project in two phases, its we could still develop approximately 20 lots along Meadow Oak Lune and Eastwood Court in the first phase and wait to make the through street connection until the second phase when we are able to obtain the lot and properly necessary for the connection. Council Agenda - 4/11/94 B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: Motion to approve the preliminary plat as originally proposed with the two cul-de-sac concept. Under this alternative, the City Council is satisfied that the development concept as originally proposed would not cause a problem for traffic congestion through the Meadow Oak Estates development and is the best proposal for retaining the exclusivity of the neighborhood. Motion to approve the preliminary plat utilizing one of the design alternatives that would provide for a through street connecting to Meadow Oak Avenue. Under this alternative, the Council is determining that the additional outlet to Meadow Oak Avenue should be required in considering this plat and that if the necessary right-of-way can't he obtained immediately, the plat could he considered in two phases until the right-of-way can be acquired. Since it may not be wise to actually create platted lots with a street that does not make the connection to Meadow Oak Avenue, it may be better to prepare the actual plat with an outlot and phase the development in the future. Also under this alternative, the Council may want to consider revising the restrictive covenants for this plat by creating two sets of restrictions with the lots abutting the through street, possibly having lesser requirements than the cul-de-sac area. Since some of the exclusivity of the neighborhood may be lessened with a through street, we may not want W create quite as high a standard in the covenants for some of these lots versus the lots abutting the end cul- de-sac. 3. Motion to deny or table approval of either of the Eastwood Knoll plat proposals. The Council could select this alternative if it is still not comfortable with the options that are available or does not feel that the preliminary plat should continue as originally proposed in a larger lot development. Council Agenda - 4/11/94 C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION While the staff is certainly aware there have been concerns expressed about the City becoming involved as the actual developer, the Council will need to decide whether it wants to continue on with the concept of creating a neighborhood with larger, wooded parcels for higher -valued homes that have restrictive covenants or whether some other option should be considered for this land. Since the Council asked for additional options to be looked at and to determine whether alternatives were available for providing street access t�, Meadow Oak Avenue, I believe the alternatives provided do indicate that it is a possibility if the City is able to obtain that one lot abutting Meadow Oak Avenue. Since we can't be sure at this time whether we will have ownership of this parcel, if an alternate is decided upon by the Council, it is suggested that we look at creating an outlot for that first cul-de-sac area to give us the option of designing it later. If we're unable to obtain the necessary right-of-way, we could always go back to the cul-de-sac design; but if the parcel does become available, the outlot would be platted at that time. If the Council is still comfortable with proceeding with some type of a plat, additional options are available as to whether we should immediately consider preparing plans and specifications for the public improvements or whether we should allow 30 days or so for an active marketing campaign to sell the property in the platted developed or undeveloped stats. This is addressed more in the next item concerning ordering plans and specifications if a preliminary plat concept is approved. 1).

No. 3445.00 Figure B '�lr COPY Special Planning Commission Agenda - 4/11/94 Public Hearine—Consideration of aaaroval of the nreliminary slat of the Eastwood Knoll subdivision. W.O.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: As you recall, at the previous meeting of the Planning Commission, the Planning Commission granted preliminary approval of the Eastwood Knoll subdivision on a vote with three in support, one abstaining, and one opposed. Rich Carlson abstained, and Cindy Lemm opposed the design of the plat due to the impact of the traffic flow on the existing developed area. This item is being returned to the Planning Commission, and a new public hearing will be conducted due to the mistake made in the original notice. The original notice included the outline of the original PUD design, which could have had the effect of misleading residents as to the impact of traffic on their neighborhood. As you know, the original PUD design did not include a through street to Briar Oakes, whereas the plat of the Eastwood Knoll does include a through street, which is a significant difference from the original PUD design. In addition, at the previous meeting the City Council listened to the residents' concerns regarding the traffic impact on the neighborhood and responded by authorizing preparation of an alternative design of the plat. Planning Commission is asked to review this alternative design and determine a preference. ALTERNATIVE. ACTIONS: Motion to approve the preliminary plat of the Eastwood Knoll subdivision under the original design. Under this alternative, the City will be assured of achieving its goal of creating an exclusive, isolated neighborhood. As a result, additional traffic impacts will be experienced by the existing Meadow Oak neighborhood. 2. Motion to approve the preliminary plat of the Eastwood Knoll subdivision under the revised design. The alternative plan features the extension of the roadway from Briar Oakes extending through the site, thereby providing direct access to Meadow Oak Avenue. Under this configuration, the additional traffic impact on Meadow Oak Lane will be minimized, and the roadway tL' Special Planning Commission Agenda - 4/11/94 connecting the Briar Oakes area to Meadow Oak Lane through Eastwood Knoll can be constructed to a 36 -ft wide minimum, which is the city standard for this type of roadway. By keeping the additional traffic out of the Meadow Oak Estates area, property values in that area can be maintained. The down side of this proposal is that the lots created along either side of the collector road in Eastwood Knoll will not be as exclusive as under the original design and will, therefore, likely fetch a lower price. This design will not affect the exclusivity of the lots on the Eastwood Knoll cul-de-sac to the west. Under the alternative, the City's goal of creating an exclusive neighborhood for the entire area is diminished; however, preserving the exclusivity of the original Meadow Oak Estates is maintained. As a final note, the City will need to acquire a lot along Meadow Oak Avenue for the through street. According to Rick, there is at least $25,000 in delinquent taxes and assessments against this property. He is relatively certain that the City can acquire it through the tax foreclosure process or through a direct sale of the property by Dickman Knutson to the City. As a variation of this alternative, a connection of the through street to Briar Oakes could be eliminated, thus eliminating drive-through traffic and maintaining exclusivity. This would also result in creation of a separate entrance to Eastwood Knoll apart from the Meadow Oak entrance. From a marketing standpoint, there may be an advantage in creating a separate entrance, as it would provide the opportunity for placement of landscaping, signage, etc., which would assist in creating an attitude supporting higher -end housing. Creating a separate entrance to Outlots C and D would also provide a second access point for the Meadow Oak Estates/Eastwood Knoll area and result in one less cul -de -enc to maintain. On the other hand, the down side is that the loss of the cul-de-sac reduces the exclusivity of the lots near the entrance. Under this alternative, the City would be trading a cul-de-sac for a direct access to the upscale neighborhood. 3. Motion to approve the original plat design but eliminate access to Briar Oakes, thereby maintaining separation as envisioned under the original PUD design. Special Planning Commission Agenda • 4/11/94 Under this alternative, the future connection of Briar Oakes to Eastwood Knoll would be eliminated, thereby eliminating any possibility of cut -through traffic traveling in either direction. Briar Oakes traffic created by 64 lots would enter and leave at one location. Meadow Oak/Eastwood Knoll traffic consisting of traffic generated by 52 lots would also enter and leave the subdivision at one location. This alternative is not consistent with the standard practice of providing at least two outlets from each development; however, due to the relatively small size of each subdivision and due to the potential of the road becoming a shortcut for traffic from outside the development, it might make some sense to select this alternative. This alternative will impact the efficiency of snow removal and police patrol services by requiring longer travel distances between subdivisions. Motion to deny approval of any of the preliminary plat designs. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION According to the traffic engineer and the City Planner, traffic issues brought forward by the neighborhood have merit. The additional traffic will have an impact on the livability of the existing neighborhood. Therefore, staff recommends approval of a plat design under alternatives #2 or Q. Rick is also examining additional methods for marketing the property. I have attached a copy of Rick's agenda item to the City Council regarding this issue for your information. D.

Consideration of nooroval of the oreliminary slat of the Eastwood Knoll residential subdivision. Aoolicant. Citv of Monticello. W.O.) REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: As you know, Outlots C and D of Meadow Oak Estates are being platted in conjunction with City acquisition of the property through a mortgage foreclosure process. Planning Commission and City Council are asked to review the preliminary plat of the site and consider its approval. Following is a description of the plat followed by a review of certain issues that deserve special attention. SITE PLAN REVIEW As you know, the original plan for this property under the PUD design called for development in conjunction with a planned unit development. Under the original proposal, 43 lots were to be developed following the design on the attached pathway map. As you can see, the design maximized the property in terms of lot density with little attention given to integrating the subdivision design into the natural characteristics of the property. The new plan for the area as outlined in the Eastwood Knoll subdivision design is much more sensitive to the natural characteristics of the property. It results in development of fewer lots; however, the lots that result should have a much higher value due to preservation of trees and minimization of impact caused by site grading. STREET SYSTEM The subdivision calls for two access points to the subdivision, one at Meadow Oak Lane and one at Woodcrest Drive. Meadow Oak Lane will be the only method for exiting and entering the site until the Briar Oakes development to the south is completed. Woodcrest Drive will be connected to the Briar Oakes subdivision, which will allow Eastwood Knoll traffic to access 118 through the Briar Oakes development. Conversely, traffic from the Briar Oakes area will be allowed to access the County Road 75 right-of- way via Meadow Oak Lane. This traffic pattern is consistent with the original planned unit development; however, under the original plan, there was another outlet to Meadow Oak Avenue via what is shown on the plat as Oakwood Court. Under the present plan, Oakwood Court is a cul-de-sac and not a through street; therefore, all traffic from the neighborhood must go through Meadow Oak Lane. Council Agenda - 3/28/94 It should be noted that the length of Oakwood Court is 800 ft. Our general guidelines state that cul-de-sacs should not exceed 600 ft. The extra distance is mitigated by the fact that the lots are large, thereby resulting in lower than normal lot density within the cul-de-sac. In addition, a pedestrian outlet at the end of the cul-de-sac has been provided. The subdivision is designed without a second outlet to Meadow Oak Lane to add to the value and exclusivity of the lots on Oakwood Court. It is felt that the added value created by establishing a cul-de-sac as proposed offsets the negative impact of the additional traffic resulting along Meadow Oak Lane. In terms of street width and construction design, due to the fact that Meadow Oak Lane and Woodcrest Drive will eventually become through streets and because they incorporate the internal walkway system, they are being constructed to a width of 36 ft. Eastwood Court and Blackwood Circle are both being constructed to the width of 32 ft. Both circles will feature a landscaped delineator in the middle of each circle. The delineator improves the aesthetics of the circle without increasing maintenance. To further illustrate this concept, I have taken a video of a similar design in the city of Mahtomedi. PARKS AND PATHWAY SYSTEM In the design of the subdivision, a strong effort was made to integrate the site into the original concept supporting the planned unit development. As you can see, two pathways are proposed which link residents living within Eastwood Court and Blackwood Circle to the future park to be developed at Outlot A. These pathways also provide access to Outlot A for area residents passing through the subdivision on their way from the Briar Oakes and Oak Ridge neighborhoods. The Eastwood Knoll plan differs from the original plan in that the primary way through the development uses on the public right-of-way, whereas under the original plan a pathway extended along rear lot lines. Pathway construction plans do include development of the pathways between lots leading from the cul-de-sacs to Outlot A. Planning Commission and Council may wish to consider adding an additional pathway segment extending along the southerly boundary (power line casement) of the property to the park located at Outlot E. This pathway would provide direct access to a park facility for residents living in this area, which could improve the value and marketability of the property. As you can see on the attached plan, this segment is included in the overall Council Agenda - 3/28/94 pathway plan for the area. Planning Commission and Council need to determine if development of the pathway at this time is premature. Perhaps it could be done at a later time in conjunction with completion of the entire pathway system, with the cost of the pathway assessed evenly over all of the properties benefiting. The approximate cost of this additional segment is $11,500. POTENTIAL CONNECTION OF COUNTY ROAD 118 TO COUNTY ROAD 75 VIA MEADOW OAK AVENUE From time to time, there has been discussion of connecting Meadow Oak Avenue to County Road 118, thus providing a direct link to the freeway for traffic generated by the Chelsea Corridor and Cardinal Hills area and points west. The potential of making this connection should be discussed at this time, as the prospect of the increased traffic at this location could have an impact on the sale of lots at Eastwood Knoll. Perhaps it is impossible to predict at this time whether or not Meadow Oak Avenue will be extended through. The main purpose of raising this issue is to determine how the City will represent the situation to prospective buyers. Perhaps the best that we can say is that connection of Meadow Oak Avenue to 118, though not planned at this time, remains a possibility for the future. On the other hand, the possible connection may have little bearing on the livability of the subdivision because Meadow Oak Lane is separated from Eastwood Knoll. In all reality, due to the fact that Meadow Oak Avenue is well separated from the development area, whether or not it becomes a through street may have no bearing at all on the desirability of the lots at Eastwood Knoll. YOUNG OAK TREES One of the interesting characteristics of the site includes the presence of a multitude of young oak trees that could be easily transplanted to other locations within the city. City staff is looking at options to preserve these young oak trees and perhaps replant them at various locations within the city. UTILITY SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT The City Engineer is completing a feasibility study which outlines the cost to extend sewer, water, roads, storm sewer, etc. According to the work completed to date, it appears that it is feasible to serve the site. It should be noted that the sanitary sewer line will include a service stub that would Council Agenda - 3/28/94 allow the potential connection of a service line to the property to the west of the site. Please see the feasibility study and grading plan for more detail. If is not included in the packet, it will be presented at the meeting on Monday. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. Motion to approve or approve and modify the preliminary plat of the Eastwood Knoll. Under this alternative, Planning Commission and City Council are satisfied with the development concept and its design in terms of the original planned unit development concept for the area. Potential modifications to the plan could include connection of the Eastwood Court circle through to Meadow Oak Avenue, thus reducing the length of the cul-de-sac and providing an outlet to Meadow Oak Avenue. This would also decrease the amount of traffic expected on Meadow Oak Lane. On the other hand, making this connection would reduce the exclusivity of the homes on Eastwood Court. In addition, in the event that Meadow Oak Avenue is connected to 118 to the west, Eastwood Court would become the most direct route to Meadow Oak Avenue for traffic going westerly on Meadow Oak Avenue. Also as part of the discussion, Planning Commission and Council should review the pathway system in detail and determine to what extent pathway development should occur beyond the extension of the pathways connecting the cul-de-sacs to the park at Outlot A. Is it appropriate at this time to extend the pathway along the southern boundary of the property to the park at Outlet E? If further pathway development is desired at this time, and if Planning Commission and Council believe that the cost of the pathway should be assessed to all benefiting property owners, then a public hearing would need to be called on a public improvement. The timing of the public hearing would coincide with awarding of the contract. 2. Motion to deny or table approval of the Eastwood Knoll plat. Planning Commission and Council should select this alternative if it is not comfortable that the plan as proposed will meet the goals of the City or the intent of the original planned unit development. Council Agenda - 3/28/94 STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that Planning Commission and Council select alternative #1. With regard to connecting Eastwood Court to Meadow Oak Avenue, for reasons outlined in the discussion above, staff supports approval of the plat as presented. With regard to extension of the pathway to the existing park at Outlot E, it is our view that the pathway should be constructed now. It is our view that the added cost to construct the path is justifiable, as it adds value to the subdivision by providing direct, access to the park, thereby avoiding the need to walk a significant distance around the existing developed Meadow Oak Estates area. The balance of the Meadow Oak area pathway construction should be done sometime in the next two to three years and financed via an area -wide assessment program. It is our view that the internal pathway system benefits each parcel equally and could he fairly assessed accordingly.

(R.W.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND If the City Council agrees that the R-1 design of the Eastwood Knoll is in harmony with the original PUD and the Council has selected a design for the preliminary plat, it is time to consider rezoning the site from R -PUD to R-1. As noted at the previous Council meeting, the Eastwood plat design meets all of the R-1 density, yard, and infrastructure design requirements; therefore, the R-1 zoning designation is more appropriate than the R -PUD designation. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS 1. Motion to approve the rezoning of Outlots C and D of the Meadow Oak subdivision to be known as Eastwood Knoll from R -PUD to 11-1. The motion is based on the finding that the subdivision design of the Eastwood Knoll is consistent with the R-1 standards, and the design of the Eastwood Knoll is also consistent with the original intent of the R-I'UI) plan originally proposed for the Meadow Oak area. 2.

Applicant. Citv of Monticello. (R.W.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND This item was also tabled from the last meeting due to the request to look at alternative designs for the Eastwood Knoll subdivision preliminary plat. Assuming the City Council has made a decision on the preliminary plat, one of the options you may want to consider at this time is continuing on with the ordering of plans and specifications. Depending on which alternative plat design may have been selected, this agenda item would keep the project going on schedule for construction this summer by allowing USM to prepare plans and specifications for bidding in early June. If the original design concept with two cul-de-sacs has been approved, it is anticipated that final plans and specifications can be approved by the Council at the first meeting in May and allow us to advertise for bids with bids returnable in early June. If the preliminary plat design alternate was selected which contains a through street to Meadow Oak Avenue, I am under the assumption that we may want to consider doing this project in two phases so that we can be assured we have obtained all the necessary right-of-way. Bret Weiss may have more information at the meeting on this possibility, but 1 believe it is feasible to do it under this alternative. While some questions have been raised by the public its to whether the City should be the developer of this property, the Council could take the position of walling with ordering plans and specifications for the public improvements until it has had more time to try and market the plat as is. In other words, if the Council would he more comfortable with waiting with ordering plans and specifications for ;10 days, the City staff could actively try and market the plat as designed to local and suburban developers who may have interest in this property. The staff would then bring back to the Council any proposals that have been received 114 an outright purchase of the property in the upproved design concept. An option could also be made available to outside developers to purchase the properly in an unimproved state or also with all improvements installed by the City. At that time, if the City received it fair and sufficient offer, the Council may want to consider selling the project to a private developer. if n sufficient offer is not received, Council could then consider ordering plana and specifications and 10 Council Agenda - 4/1 V94 proceed with installing the public improvements. During all of this process, the City staff could continue to try and market the property as individual lots or as a package deal. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS If the Council has approved a preliminary plat design and feels the project should move ahead at this time, a motion could be made to adopt the resolution ordering that plans and specifications be prepared by OSM. Under this alternative, it is anticipated that plans would be approved in early May and authorization be given for advertising for bids at that time. Bids would be returnable in early June, and construction would commence thereafter. Even during this process, the City would be attempting to market the property as individual lots or as package sales to interested individuals and/or developers. Assuming the project is continuing on schedule, prices for the individual lots would have to he established if the entire parcel has not been sold. Motion could he to table ordering plans and specifications for the Eastwood Knoll subdivision at this time and authorize the staff to actively market the property for 30 days. Under this option, the Council would hold off on any additional design work for the improvements and seek offers on the property for Council consideration. Iran acceptable offer has been made within 30 days, the Council could decide at that time whether the improvements would he a public project or financed entirely by it private developer. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Assuming that the City Council remains comfortable with the prospect of developing and marketing the lots in this subdivision, the City staff recommends that the Council adopt the resolution authorizing preparation of plans and specifications. This would he option 111; and during this process, the staff would still entertain offers from interested individuals for acquiring some or all of the lots in the developed stage. The property could al Council Agenda - 4/11/94 be marketed by obtaining a price for the raw land with the buyer being responsible for all improvement cost or market the lots with all improvements in and paid for. In marketing the undeveloped property, I'm sure there may be interested individuals who would like to see the property developed in a different fashion to create more buildable lots. If the Council has determined it is satisfied with the original design concept, the City can certainly let it be known that it will entertain all offers up to the time the improvements are being awarded by the City.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF MONTICELLO, MINNESOTA: OSM is hereby designated as the engineer for this improvement. He shall prepare plans and specifications for the making of such improvement. 2.

Mayor City Administrator Council Agenda - 4/11/94 s. Consideration of application for carnival license. ADplicant, Monticello Mall Merchants Association. IR.W.1 A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: Ms. Julie Ellis, Promotion Director for the Monticello Mall Merchants Association, has applied for a license to have Chuck's Amusement operate a carnival at the Monticello Mall parking lot for 10 days, May 27 through June 5, 1994. As you may recall, the Monticello Mall received permission from the City Council to have this same operator conduct a carnival last year, May 19 through May 23. City ordinances require that the City Council approve the license for carnivals, circuses, and traveling shows. The Merchants Association is also again requesting that the fee established within our city ordinances for a carnival at $100 for the first day and $.50 per day thereafter be waived. The Merchants Association considers themselves a non-profit organization established for the promotion of the mall, and the request is not coming from one specific individual. The Merchants Association has provided a certificate of insurance document, indicating that the carnival operator would have a $1 million liability P)Iicy in effect. The city ordinance covering carnivals also indicates that a surety bond is required from the operator to protect the City of Monticello by insuring that all applicable federal, state, and city regulations are adhered to. While the carnival will he located on private mall parking Int property, the City may want to consider requiring it surely bond to insure that the carnival meets all other city regulations. For example, the carnival, when setting up or dismantling, could cause damage to something nn our boulevard or right-of- way, and the bond would insure that the carnival would he liable for those repairs. For your reference, the City Council did waive this requirement last year for the mall merchants and felt that it wasn't necessary in this instance that it surety bond he supplied. Enclosed with the agenda you will find it listing of the days and hours of operation that the amusement will he operating during the 10 -day run. It is also noted that Chuck's Amusement will provide two portable toilets for the grounds and will attempt to park their bigger trucks in the back of the mall to avoid congestion within the parking lot. area. 13 Council Agenda - 4/11/94 B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: i.�r .: ql a•�. 1. Approve the issuance of a 10 -day carnival license to the Moolicello Mall Merchants Association and waive the daily fees by recognizing the Association as a non-profit organization. 2. Approve the issuance of the carnival license along with waiving the fees and waiving the surety bond requirement. The carnival would still he supplying a certificate of insurance for liability coverage. 3. Approve the issuance of the license contingent upon the fees being collected and the surety bund being required. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: From a location standpoint, if the amusement operator does locate sonic of their vehicle parking to the hack of the mall, the Monticello Mall should have adequate parking to allow the carnival to operate. Since the Council determined the Mall Association was a non-profit organization last year, you may want, to continue with this understanding and waive the daily license fees. From the standpoint of requiring a surety bond, there is only a slight., remote possibility that any damage would occur to public property, as the operation will take place on private property, and the Council may want to again waive the requirement for the surety bond. While any damage to public property is remote, I do want to remind the Council that other events such as circuses and amusements like the one proposed have put up posters and advertising hanners on our city light poles in the past, which have caused damage to the paint. Had we had a surety bond from the circus that has been in town in the past, we would have been able to get the insurance company to reimburse us for our cost of repairing and repainting our light standards. Again, the likelihood of this happening is very remote, and the Council may want to again waive the surety bond requirement. 1).

Consideration of ratifying union contract renewal. (R.W.) A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND The current two-year union contract with seven members of the public works department maintenance stall expired April 1, 1994; and over the past few weeks, negotiations have taken place with union representatives along with myself and Council representative, Clint Herbst, to arrive at a new package being proposed tonight. As you may recall, Councilmember Herbst along with Brad Fyle as a backup were appointed to he included in the negotiations to keep the Council abreast of the issues at hand. As is typically the case, the negotiations start with a list of changes the union would like to see in the contract, and again this year was no exception. The changes proposed by the union included: 1. A request for all hours worked on a Sunday or any of the 10 1/2 holidays to he paid for at two times the employees' regular base rate. 2. A request that a lead person or assistant supervisor be appointed from the membership when there is an anticipated absence of our Water Superintendent or Street Superintendent. 3. A request for callback pay to be at the rale of a minimum of two hours at time -and -a -half, except for callbacks on Sundays and holidays when they requested a minimum of two hours at double time. 4. A clarification granting the membership 1/2 day holiday for Christmas Have every year rather than current language which may not grant this holiday if it does not fall on a Monday through Friday. 5. Add sick leave benefits equal to 3/4 (if the normal henefit for the Groundskeeper/Maintenance Worker classification. 6. A 41/ salary increase to all classifications April 1, 1994, and it 4r4 increase for all classifications April I, 1995. 7. A clarification of contract language granting union employees the same health insurance coverage that is provided to non- union employees. 15 Council Agenda - 4/11/94 Prior to the initial negotiating session, I had responded to the union's request and basically indicated that the City would not consider any change in the current language for overtime pay that would give a regular scheduled employee double time for regular hours worked on a Sunday or a holiday if that was part of their normal schedule. Likewise, since the contract already did provide for a minimum of two hours pay for any callback situation, the City would also not entertain the idea of the two - hours minimum pay being at time -and -a -half or double time. In regard to their request for the half-day Christmas Eve holiday, 1 indicated that this may be something the City would consider if we come to agreement on all other issues in the contract. In regard to the request for sick leave benefits for the Groundskeeper/Maintenance Worker position, 1 did indicate that this was a reasonable request since this position has put in the number of hours necessary to receive these benefits. In regard to the real issues at hand, which concern salary increases and health insurance coverage, I informed the union representative that in order to remain in compliance with comparable worth legislation, the City would be adamant about keeping the union pay scales in line with comparable worth. In order to do this, the salary increases effective April 1, 1994, could not exceed 35S and that for 1995, possibly we should look at some method of tying in the union increases to correspond with the non-union salary adjustments. Again, this will he an important issue in that we don't want to have one group of employees receiving higher increases than the other, or it will again put us out of compliance with our comparable worth study. In regard to health insurance coverage, the last contract had language that indicated the union memhership would receive the same contribution toward their health insurance cover -age that the non-union members receive. Since we have been doing that, the union would like to see that continue and is agreeable to receiving the same contribution tis all other employees. The initial meeting with the union representatives and city personnel proved to Ix quite successful, as we came to it basic agreement concerning till the issues. I also mel, separately with the union official to clarify the City's position in regard to when a possible lead person or assistant superintendent would he established in the absence of one of our supervisors. Front the initial meeting, the final agreement turns out to he basically as 1 had expected and is summarized as follows: The City will change the contract language to indicate that at the discretion of the Witter or Street Superintendent, a lead person/assistant, superintendent can he appointed from the membership when, in the absence of the Superintendent, it is 16 Council Agenda - 4/11/94 determined that a lead person is required. The only change from the present contract language is that the contract stated that the employer made this decision, whereas the change would now allow the supervisor to decide when a lead person is necessary. Although this language change satisfies the union membership, there will not be any change in how we have operated in the past, and we only establish a lead person or assistant superintendent when there will be an extended absence by the Street or Water Superintendent anyway. The real reason for establishing a lead person is to have one person in charge to give directions and have that authority that is necessary when there may be four to eight individuals working in the street and park departments without the supervisor being around. 2. Contract language would be amended to indicate that the 1/2 day paid holiday for December 24 (Christmas Eve) shall he granted to the membership on the last work day preceding Christmas. This is the same method used for non-union employees. In the past, union members would sometimes not receive this 1/2 day holiday unless Christmas Eve was actually occurring on Monday through Thursday. The contract would he amended to include language for sick leave benefits for the Groundskeeper/Maintenance position by Lidding the following language: The Groundskeeper/Maintenance Worker classification Shall receive sick leave benefits equal to 75% of the Operator/Mechanic schedule. In the past, this classification only received vacation henefits equal to 75% of the Operntor/Mechanic position schedules and did not receive tiny sick leave benefits. This would add the sick leave at the some rate as vacation at 75%. It is proposed that the salary schedule rates for the equipment Mechanic/Operator he, adjusted as follows, which amounts to a 3increase. This arhincrease would put the union pay scales in line with our comparable worth study for their job position. 17 Council Agenda - 4111/94 Ouerator/Alechanic 04/01/94 Top Rate $14.46 42.54 months $13.88 30-42 months $13.:30 18.30 months $12.72 6.18 months $12.15 1st 6 months $11.57 Groundskeeper 04/01/94 Top Rate $7.82 42.54 months $7.51 30-42 months $7.19 18-30 months $6.88 6-18 months $6.57 1st 6 months $6.26 The contract would also be amended to include language that states that the Operator/Niechanic and Groundskeeper salary schedules will be adjusted on April 1, 1995, by an additional 111`l't. or by a percentage rate that is equal to the amount granted by the City of Monticello to all non-union employee wage scales for the year 1995, whichever is greater. This increased salary schedule would he effective April 1, 1995, until April 1, 1996. Since it has always been a problem guessing what the nom - union employees might receive fin• pay increases when trying to establish the second year increase for the union, it seemed more appropriate to tie the union increase for the second year to what is granted by the Council to other non-union employees annually. By establishing a minimum of 1 112'k, this satisfies Lite union in that they are receiving something, but it also should provide a comfort level to the Council in knowing that they haven't established it precedent with ton high of an increase granted to one bargaining unit and being forced to grant the same amount to non-union personnel because of comparable worth. The 1 1121 was agreed to due to the fact that the negotiating committee wits not aware of it recent year that the City Council has not. granted at least a 1 1129 increase in salary adjustments. EU Council Agenda - 4/11/94 5. Contract language regarding health insurance coverage remained generally the same and will be clarified to indicate that current contribution levels for union membership will he equal to the contribution levels provided to non-union employees. Union membership is satisfied by knowing that if an increase is granted to non-union, they will likewise receive the increase, but also they recognize that if our insurance coverage changes or the contribution level is lowered for the non-union, their benefits could also be lowered. This concept of treating both bargaining units the same was already established in 1992 when we agreed to the basic principal of giving the union membership the same health insurance benefits as the non-union employees were receiving. R. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The first alternative would he to ratify and execute a new two --year contract with the changes outlined above resulting in a salary increase of 37 the first ,year of the contract and it minimum of 1 1/27 the second year of the contract. In addition, this alternative would make the language changes as noted for the half-day Christmas Eve holiday and additional sick leave benefit for the Croundskeeper/Maintenance Worker position. 2. rhe second alternative would be to not ratify the contract as negotiated and request that the negotiating committee continue discussions on anv topics the Council is not in agreement with. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: As I noted, Cuuncilmember Clint Herbst along with alternate Brad F'yle have been apprised of all correspondence between myself and union representatives, and Mr. Herbst also wits involved in the negotiating session. I believe Councihnember Herbst will agree that the contract as negotiated seems fair in that it will grant an increase to the union membership at 37 for 1994 that will place them in line with the comparable worth study of non-union personnel. The new concept of tying in the second year of their increase to what the Council grants for other employees should eliminate the advance guessing we have been doing in establishing the second year increase on their contract. Again, this will keep us in compliance by the union only receiving what non-union personnel do as fear 19 Council Agenda - 4/11/94 as percentage increases are concerned. The other issues seem minor and, again, are not major changes to the contract. As a result, it is the recommendation of the negotiating committee that die union contract ln: ratified as proposed and outlined above with a salary adjustment of 3% for this year and a minimum 1 1/2% for 1995. D. SUPPORTING DATA: Due to the length of the document, I have only included the specific language changes outlined in the agenda and the proposed salary schedules for the Operator/Mechanic and Gruundskeeper positions. If anyone would like a copy of the full contract, one is available at city hall for your review. 20 PROPOSED LABOR AGREEMENT CHANGES Article X - Overtime Pay. Section 10.6.

Based upon that information, the hest bid for us is to purchase the truck from Boyer Ford for $44,639 and to sell or trade our truck to Myer Ford for $8,200, leaving it purchase price of the new truck of $36,439. The lowest bid for it dump body meeting our specifications was received from Crvsteel of Fridley, Minnesota, in the amount of $10,976. Our lowest prices for the snowplow equipment were received from J Craft of Kimball, Minnesota, and they are $5,937 for the hitch and wing, $4,055 for the trip edge snowplow, and $2,0113 for the sander. The cost for purchasing the new truck, dump body, and all the snowplow equipment, including sales tax, iunounts to $63,282.31. As you may recall, we only had $55,000 in our budget.. If we deleted the new trip edge snowplow and used our spare plow until next ,year and purchased the new plow in the 1995 hudget, we would delay spending $4,313.68. This would bring our total expenditure to $68,9118.7:4 (including sales tax). 22 Net Murch.

The first alternative would he to award the purchase of a new truck to Boyer Ford for "4,639 plus tax, sell or trade our old truck to Boyer Ford for $8,200, purchase the dump body from Crysteel Equipment of Fridley, Minnesota, for $10,976 plus tae, and purchase all of the snowplow equipment from J Craft of Kimball, Minnesota, for $12,005 plus tax, bringing the total expenditure to $63,282.31, including sales tax. 2. The second alternative would be to make the above purchases but exclude the new snowplow for the time being and use our old spare plow until 1995. The total cost of this expenditure would be $58,968.73, including sales tax. 3. The third alternative would be not to purchase a new truck at this time. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of the Public Works Director and Street Superintendent that the City Council purchase die new equipment as outlined in alternative #1. There are adequate reserve funds in the street fund this year to cover the cost, as recent inspections of the small number of streets to be sealcoated indicate that this will more than likely he a skip year for the street sealcoating project, which leaves us a surplus of $20,000 in the street fund. 1).

Continuation of consideration of uurchase of lawn mower and snowblower for city hall. 1J.S.1 REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: At the last meeting, City Council was concerned with the staff recommendation to purchase a Honda snowblower and mower for city hall. The mower recommended was the Honda model H3013HSA, which features a 38 -inch cut, a 13 hp overhead valve engine, and hydrostatic drive. The cost of the mower, including bagger and taxes, was $3,008.63. The snowblower recommended was the Honda model HS828KiTAS, 8 hp with hydrostatic track drive with a 28 -inch wide cut. The cost of this blower, including taxes, was $1,702.94. We looked at the John Deere equipment as was recommended by the Council and were unable to find a comparahly-equipped John Deere 13 hp riding mower with a 38 -inch cut and hydrostatic drive. The Park Superintendent looked at the SRX95 John Deere mower, which has 12 1/2 hp Kawaski, a 38 -inch cut, and a foot -controlled variable speed hell drive. The Park Superintendent felt that this drive would not he conducive to commercial operation and would result in numerous problems for us. Consequently, if we look at the John Deere equipment, we should be looking at the GX95 .John Deere, which still features the 12 1/2 hp Kawaski engine but is a mechanical transmission with a narrower 30 -inch cut. This unit is suitable for our commercial type operation. The cost of this machine, including the bagger and sides tax, is $2,060.78. '['his is a savings of $947.85 over the larger cut hydrostatic drive Honda. It is difficult to estimate the time savings advantage that the wider cut Honda with hydrostatic drive would have over the John Deere. But all things being equal as far as reliability and durability of both mowers, it would take a few ,years to make up the difference in cost. The Parks Superintendent obtained a price for a John Deere, model TRX, 8 hp track drive snowblower with Tecumseh engine and manual transmission. The price for the John Deere snowblower would he $1,1186.30, including sales tux. This is $616.64 less than the Honda hydrostatic unit.. The advantages of the Honda unit are the overhead valve Honda engine versus the 'fecumsch engine, a wider path (28" vs 24"), and the hydrostatic drive. The hydrostatic drive itself we felt would only be a benefit during loading and unloading of the snowblower when it is walked up planks into the hack of a pickup or onto a trailer. We think we can load the manual transmission unit without significant problems. If the John Deere 24 Council Agenda - 4/1 1J94 snowblower with the Tecumseh engine holds up as well as the Honda units, the $616 difference in price is not justifiable just to obtain the hydrostatic drive and a slightly wider cut. We have included copies of the new quotes. Please refer to your previous Council agenda for additional information on the original quotes. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The first altemative is to buy the John Deere GX95 riding lawn mower with rear bagger, gauge wheels, and 30 -inch cut with mechanical transmission from Scharber Equipment for $2,060.78 and to buy the John Deere TRX snowblower from Scharber Equipment for $1,086.30. 2. The second alternative would be to purchase the John Deere GX95 riding lawn mower and the TRX snowblower from Moon Motor sales of Monticello for a slightly higher cost of $2,103.38 and $1,198.1:3 respectively. This would cost us approximately $154.43 more to buy locally, or we could request that Moon Motor Sales match the quote from Scharber & Sons on both pieces of equipment. :3. The third alternative would he to purchase the Honda H3013HSA riding lawn mower with hydrostatic drive and 38 -inch cut from Moon Motors for $:3,008.63 and purchase the John Deere TRX snowblower from Scharber & Sons for $1,086.30; or purchase the snowblower from Moon Motors if they would meet the proposal from Scharlxr. Currently, Moon Motors' snowblower price is $102 higher than Schurher's. 4. The fourth alternative is to make no purchases at, this time but to consider contracting out all of our mowing for public buildings and lighter snowplowing for sidewalks. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: City staff has spent it great deal of time on the consideration of purchase of these two pieces of equipment.. It is the recommendation of the Parks Superintendent that we purchase the Honda riding lawn nwwer from Moon Motors. The advantages of the reliability/durability of this piece of equipment coupled with the extra wide cut and hydrostatic drive make this our best value. It is expected that much of the difference in price would he made up over the next few yenrs in time savings, not only from greater 25 Council Agenda - 4/1 IJ94 efficiency of the mower and operation but also from expected less down time. Based upon an 8 -year projection, the purchase cost difference would he $118 per year. Using current wages and benefits, this would be equal to 9 1/2 man-hours per year. As Public Works Director, 1 agree with this analysis and, therefore, recommend purchasing the Honda mower from Moon Motors. We both feel, however, that the difference in cost between the John Deere snowblower and the Honda snowblower may not justify the move to hydrostatic drive assuming that the Tecumseh engine will hold up as well in the winter as the Honda. We would, therefore, recommend purchase of the John Deere snowblower and request that the City Council consider alternative N3. D.

Consideration of aanroval of plans and quecifications and authorization to advertise for bids for demolition of the buildinsrs on the Gille aronertv. (J.S.) A. REFERENCE AND 13ACKGROUND: The City Administrator has been working with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to gain authority to clean up the Gille property. It appears that authorization from the PCA will be corning shortly. In preparation for this, we have developed plans and specifications for the demolition of the building, septic tank system, and exterior slabs and pump islands. We will also be obtaining bids for sealing of the two residential wells found on the property. Both the demolition and the well sealing are not fundable through any state or government agencies. City staff is also working toward developing a plan for rebidding the tank removal and cleanup of contaminated soil at the site. This work can be done independently of the building demolition, as, generally speaking, there are more people in the demolition building business than there are certified tank removal contractors. The bids for the demolition and well sealing would be returnable on Monday, April 25, to be reviewed that evening. The bids could be held for 45 days so that adequate time exists for all approvals to go ahead with the project from the PCA. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. 'file first alternative is to approve the plans and specifications for demolition of the buildings on the Gille property to include the pump islands, outside slabs, and septic tank system, as well as the well sealing, and to authorize advertisement for bids to be returned and considered at the April 25 meeting. 2. The second alternative is not to proceed with bids at this time. C, STAFF RFCOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of the City Administrator and Public Works Director Chat we proceed and obtain the bids for demolition of the buildings on the Gille properly as outlined in alternative Nl. 1). SUPPORTING DATA: Copy of the plans and specifications for the demolition of the buildings. The specifications for the well sealing will Ile delivered at Monday evening's meeting. 28 SPECIFICATIONS FOR BUILDING DEMOLITION AND SITE PREPARATION OF THE OLD GII.LE HOUSE AND APPURTENANCES 1324 WEST BROADWAY FOR THE CITY OF MONTICELLO MONTICELLO, MINNESOTA MARCH 30, 1894 Prepared by City of Monticello DEMGILLE.SPE: 3/30/94 k /� 1.

REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND: OSM and PSG have determined that piping modifications of the sludge lines in the digester building pump room need to he made in order for the first stage and second stage digesters to function together more efficiently. OSM has made a drawing of the proposed modifications, and we have asked Gridor Construction of Plymouth, Minnesota, to give us a quote for installing piping modifications. Gridor is currently on site building the new second stage digester cover. The cost of the modifications based upon a quote from Gridor Construction is $6,830, the majority of which is for materials. B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS: 1. The first alternative is to authorize Gridor Construction Inc. of Plymouth, Minnesota, to install the piping modifications at a cost of $6,830 as recommended by OSM and PSG. Z. The second alternative would he to obtain separate quotes from other contractors in the Twin City area. 3. The third alternative would be not to make the piping modifications. C. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: It is the recommendation of the Public Works Director, Jan Peterson of OSM, and Kelsie McGuire from Professional Services Group that we authorize Gridor Construction to install piping modifications as outlined in alternative #1 at a cost of $6,830. Most. of the cost is for materials, and their labor cost, is quite low, as they are currently on site. It is my opinion thal, we would not receive it lower quote from other contractors that would have to mobilize to the site to do this work. 1).

This is to update you on the status of the Emmerich/Klein rezoning case. At the regular meeting of the Planning Commission on April 5, the commission reviewed the Emmerich/Klein rezoning proposal along with a companion proposal submitted by the Planning Commission requesting consideration of rezoning the Hoglund and Lundsten property from B-3 to I-1 and 1-1 to B-2 respectively. The meeting was very productive and well attended. Comments from the Industrial Development Committee, Chamber of Commerce, and local landowners were added to the pool of information for Planning Commission review. In addition, I provided a video to the Planning Commission showing them examples in other cities of how transitions from industrial to residential properties have been handled. As a result of the information and discussion, the item was tabled once more with the Planning Commission requesting that staff obtain additional information regarding the effectiveness of the efforts to buffer the industrial uses from residential uses. In accordance with the request, I will be visiting the city of New Hope, some of the businesses, and apartment complexes that I videoed for additional information. According to the zoning ordinance, the Planning Commission has 60 days to review the matter and make its recommendation to the City Council, which will allow one more meeting to discuss this matter prior to Council consideration scheduled for May 9. Please call me if you would like to review the video with me and/or discuss the additional information provided to the Planning Commission at the previous meeting, including specific recommendations made by the Industrial Development Committee and the Chamber of Commerce. INFORMATION UPDA'T'E April 8, 1994 Update on community arena desien study RFP. (J.0.) This note is to inform Council that I contacted the community arena association regarding Council's action approving the issuance of the community arena design study RFP, and 1 informed them that the funds to complete the study cannot be taken from the $100,000 contribution requirement. 1 was informed by Mark Fluharty that the community arena association has taken Council's action under advisement. It is my understanding that the arena association may not wish to finance the study if the funds for the study cannot be drawn from the $100,000 requirement. This is to let you know that no additional work relating to the referendum will be completed until such time that the arena association provides me with its position on the matter.
