Fall/Winter Newsletter 2017-2018" Citizens often feel a thousand miles away from cityleaders who are justa fewblocks down the road. Ourjob is to bridge thatgap." With only a few words, this quotation from the Minneapolis city website illustrates a central part of local government: the importance of maintaining a connection between citizens, their city leaders, and city staff. Twice a year, the City of Monticello sends this newsletter to residents as a way of continuing to strengthen that connection. As we create the newsletter, we try to blend newsworthy information, helpful annual reminders, and fun upcoming events for residents. Take a look inside for information about the preliminary levy, upcoming projects, the downtown small area plan, and so much more. Each city department has the opportunity to contribute, and we also try to highlight as many popular topics as we can. 3JOF Ultimately, we hope the newsletter supports a stronger link between you and your city by answering your questions, providing new information, and inspiring us all to feel excited about the future of our community. We'll work to continue the conversation too. The newsletter isn't the only way we try to reach out to provide news and information. We're dedicated to maintaining an informative website, an engaging Facebook page, a helpful weekly E -Newsletter, and more. If you're looking for a way to stay up to date on city news, we invite you to try one of these resources. And then we want to hear from you! We know good communication isn't just sending information out and hoping you'll attend a public meeting. We encourage you to send us an email, leave a comment on our Facebook page, or use the Help Desk on our website. We'll strive to answer your questions and use the feedback to find ways to improve our communication with the community. We're strongest together and never want you to feel like city leaders are a thousand miles away. We're just a few blocks down the road.

CITY 01 Monticello www.ci.monticello.mmus www.ci.monticeIIo.mn.us STRATEGIC PLAN MISSION & GOALS Monticello is continuously evolving. As a city, it's essential for us to periodically evaluate where we are, where we want to go, and determine the best way to get there. This year City Council and city staff participated in a strategic planning process defining our mission and our goals for the next several years. Council members and staff held an honest discussion about our community's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The ideas from the discussion resulted in a series of goals that allow us to maintain what we love about Monticello while encouraging growth, development, and innovation. STRATEGIC GOALS: • Create & Preserve Sustainable Livability Livability is a little word with a big meaning; it includes everything that contributes to quality of life. We will implement a variety of ideas to create and preserve livability within our community. • Build a Connected Community We want to harness the power of connection. We will build a community that is connected to history, connected to place, and connected to each other. • Strengthen our Image as a Destination Monticello already has amenities that attract visitors. We have beautiful parks, miles of pathways, a fabulous community center, and a thriving commercial economy. We will promote what's here and incorporate new features to strengthen our image as a destination. • Support a Vibrant Economy The vitality of a city is directly related to the health of its economy. We will support a strong, diverse economy in our community. • Be a Regional Leader Success isn't achievable alone. We will build and strengthen relationships with other cities and organizations. We strive to lead by example and offer innovative ideas to our partners. • Invest in People People are the heart of a community, and we will show our commitment by investing in them. We will work to meet the needs of citizens, and we will provide opportunities for staff to grow and utilize their talents here. www umonticello.mn.us - Monticello 2 01 7-18 1 Fall & Winter 5 3U )G :=T &' R0 ': QTY TAX 2018 The City will hold a public hearing on December 11th at 6:30 PM in the Mississippi Room of the Monticello Community Center. The purpose of the public hearing will be to present the City's proposed 2018 Budget and Property Tax Levy. Property owners will receive truth -in -taxation notices from Wright County in mid-November. The notices show each taxing district (city, county, etc.) and compare the effects of the proposed 2018 levy (for each taxing district) with the $10,000,000 payable 2017 property taxes. After a short presentation, residents $8,000,000 and property owners can comment and ask $6,000,000 questions about the proposed 2018 budget and proposed tax levy. The proposed city $4,000,000 levy of $9,547,000 represents a 4.3% $z,00n,000 increase (or $397,000) over last year's levy. The HRA levy for 2018 is proposed at $323,000, or $40,000 more than 2017. When combined with the city's proposed levy, many residents and businesses will see little change in the total amount they owe because the city's tax base grew by over 7%. Xcel Energy plant improvements added over $29 million in taxable market value to the City's tax base for taxes collectible in 2018. The results will be reflected on the city portion of your truth -in -taxation notice.

Many of the development and land use requests reviewed by the Planning Commission require the city to hold a public hearing. Public hearings are an opportunity for citizens to provide input to the city, often through the Planning Commission, on a land use issue. To advertise the public hearing, the city publishes notices of the hearing's subject, date, time, and location in the Monticello Times, as well as on the city's bulletin board (at the MCC and on the city website). Residents within a specific range of a development application may also receive a mailed notice. If you receive a notice of public hearing, you are encouraged to review the materials for the land use application online, contact the Community Development Department with any questions, and attend the public hearing in person. After all, as the old saying goes, "Decision are made by those who show up." Attending the hearing is an important way to learn more about a project or issue being reviewed by the commission, and to voice your comments and thoughts on projects contemplated for the community. You can learn more about the Planning Commission by visiting their webpage on the city website. Monticello 6 www.ci.monticeIIo.mn.us =A..01AV:4U:0V:R1ASS'ZOJ:CT The 2018 construction season is likely to be a particularly important one in Monticello. The City anticipates constructing the Fallon Avenue Overpass, which will be a significant change to our local roadways. The overpass was conceived more than two decades ago as a future local crossing of 1-94. It was identified in Monticello's 1994 Transportation Plan, and the Federal Highway THE BLUFFS , r� Administration supports its construction to 'APARTMENTS'address increased growth. �I 4 I, i LANDSCAPED ISLAND LINCOLN ESTATES THE BLUFFS BITUMINOUS TRAIL APARTMENTS LANDSCAPED ISLAND SHADE TREES WAYFINDING SIGNAGEAR CONCRETE SIDEWALK 4 SIGNAGE AREA DECORATIVE CONCRETE - � DURA THERM CROSSWALK 4 A WSI INDUSTRIES BITUMINOUS TRAIL LANDSCAPED ISLAND i BALL ELEMENTS HOGLUND BODY INC. & EQUIPMENT li WASHBURN ` COMPUTER �. - GROUP WSB ] LEGEND ■ TURF DECORATIVE PAVEMENT SHADE TREE ❑CONCRETE SIDEWALK BITUMINOUS TRAIL RIGHT OF WAY The primary purpose of the Fallon Avenue Overpass is to provide an alternative place to cross 1-94 besides TH 25 and CSAH 18. The bridge will allow local traffic to cross the interstate using Fallon Avenue as a connection between 7th Street and Chelsea Road. In addition to building the bridge, the project includes constructing 3 roundabouts at the intersections of Fallon Avenue & Chelsea Road, Fallon Avenue & 7th Street, and 7th Street & Washington Street to enhance traffic flow and pedestrian safety. Finally, the project incorporates trail and sidewalk connections as well as landscaping and bridge aesthetics. In June 2017, City Council authorized final design services from WSB & Associates, the city's engineering consultants. The city engineer anticipates that the final project plans will be presented for approval in early 2018. Pending the necessary approvals, the city expects construction to begin in the spring of 2018 with substantial completion of the project by late fall. The project should be officially complete in the summer of 2019. The City will host a public open house before construction begins so residents can learn more about the project and the anticipated construction impacts. All dates are subject to change, but residents can stay informed by visiting the Fallon Avenue Overpass project page on the city's website or liking the City of Monticello on Facebook. CITY OF Monticello ENGINEERING 2 01 7-18 1 Fall & Winter 7 HIGHWAY 25COA.T01"INNESOTA Drivers in Monticello understand the significance and the challenges of the Highway 25 corridor between Highway 10 and 1-94. It's the only local Mississippi River crossing and 0 City of Becker carries both local and regional traffic; these factors 0 Becker Township combine to cause congestion during peak times. The pressure on this vital stretch of roadway has grown sharply in recent years, and continued growth will cause additional strain. However, Monticello can't solve the problem alone. The Highway 25 Coalition was initiated to develop a unified effort among local and state interests to address the transportation needs of the region. The members of the group were already meeting informally, but in 2016 the coalition was formalized with a joint powers agreement. The creation of the Highway 25 Coalition was an important step forward. Future transportation improvements need regional cooperation and joint planning to have the best chance for necessary funding. In February 2017, the coalition selected SRF Consulting Group to complete a Highway 25 Area Study. The study consists of gathering and analyzing data to identify the current and future transportation issues in the area, developing short and long- term improvements, and creating an implementation plan with priorities and potential funding sources. As the project moves forward, there will be opportunities for public feedback, and we will continue to post information on our website so citizens can stay informed on the progress. The study and the coalition won't solve the challenges on Highway 25 immediately, but they are an essential first step. The coalition includes cities, townships, counties, and other stakeholders. • City of Big Lake • Town of Big Lake • City of Monticello • Sherburne County • Wright County • MN Department of Transportation • Examine impacts of continued growth on traffic patterns in member jurisdictions. • Perform traffic studies to define and identify priority improvements. • Prepare collaborative project design and delivery recommendations. • Study various transportation risks associated with improvement alternatives and associated timing of the construction of improvements. • Identify grant programs for funding activities. • Develop a unified effort among local and state interests in obtaining funding of improvements to include: (i) providing input and leadership within each member community on matters pertaining to corridor improvement planning and implementation; and (ii) advocacy at the State and Federal levels. • Partner with MnDOT on regional transportation decisions and involvement in regional policy decisions and discussions. • Incorporate public input in planning efforts. • Identify related and ancillary activities or common issues associated with the Highway 25 corridor. The timing of the traffic signals on Highway 25 is one of the most common complaints we receive at City Hall. Please note, the timing of the signals in Monticello is controlled by the MN Department of Transportation (MnDOT). If you experience problems related to the timing, please contact MnDOT at (320) 223-6500. Be ready to provide details like the location of the signal, specific problem, and time of day. You're also welcome to contact City Hall, and we can forward the information to MnDOT for you. 8 www.ci.monticeIIo.mn.us MONTICELLO PARK NEWS Ellison Park is one of the busiest parks in Monticello and home to the annual Riverfest celebration which brings people from all over to visit our community. This year the Parks Department added a new amenity to this scenic riverfront park thanks to generous donations from the Monticello Lions and the Ellison family. Parks Department staff built a new open air shelter that features a large grill space, electrical amenities, seating, and beautiful views of the river. Named the Lion's Den, the _ building will be used during Riverfest and can be rented by citizens for private parties and weddings. A big thank you to everyone involved for helping to enhance one our favorite w ti parks! fw,Aw 4k x„ nk; s x;:a Trail work has wrapped up for the season at Montiview. Thanks to the volunteer group DirtWirx, the first phase of the singletrack trail is now open. Please visit the Montiview Facebook page to stay up to date on future events, trail conditions and volunteer needs at the park. If you would like to volunteer for trail building in the future, please contact DirtWirx at: dirtwirxl@gmail.com. Thank you to CentraCare Health -Monticello for generously donating a bike repair station at Montiview this year! Now the tools you need to fix your bike are readily available if you run into a little bit of trouble on the trail. On September 24, Paws for Parks hosted their third and final Wag & Walk Festival. It was a beautiful day with a good turnout. Always a hit with the participants was the K-9 demonstration from the Wright County Sheriff's Office. Officer Cotten was in attendance with his new K-9 Chase. The group dedicated a memorial to the officer's fallen partner, K-9 Saber, who passed away in 2016. The City of Monticello would like to express its sincere gratitude to the Paws for Parks subcommittee for all of their volunteer work raising the funds to build the dog park in Monticello and continuing to represent the dog park at events. They've worked tirelessly to educate the public on dog park etiquette, the importance of dog licensing, and cleaning up after your pets. The park has been very well received not only by Monticello dog owners, but by dog owners from other communities as well. We'd like to remind park users to always clean up after your pets so maintenance staff doesn't get "sprayed" when they're mowing and weed whipping. To avoid the spread of disease, we also ask you not to share water dishes; please bring your own dish to the park and take it back with you. Before the first hard freeze, the water will be turned off for the season. All dogs using the park must be at least six months old and licensed with the City of Monticello or their city of residence. Licenses can be purchased at Monticello City Hall. Please bring proof of rabies vaccination when applying for your license. The fee is $20/license. The current license being issued is valid until December 31, 2018. If you ciTv of 11 have any questions or concerns regarding the dog park, AM/OntlAo please contact the Monticello Parks Department at PAR KS 763-295-3170.

After a snowfall, all Monticello streets are plowed on a schedule outlined in Monticello's Snow- plowing and Ice Removal Policy. www.ci.monticeIIo.mn.us After two inches of snowfall, vehicles parked in locations that create an extreme hazard may be towed immediately by the Wright County Sheriff's Office or at the request of state, county, or city street maintenance personnel. Stay informed of the weather forecasts and move your vehicle off of the street when necessary.

The City of Monticello asks residents and businesses to help clear snow and ice from around fire hydrants adjacent to their property. The city has nearly 900 hydrants simply not enough manpower to keep oil up with clearing all of them during the winter. However, we ask that you not use power equipment such as a snow blower within 3 feet of the hydrant as it could damage the hydrant or your equipment. Digging out the hydrant is not only the neighborly thing to do, it's crucial in an emergency. Firefighters need a minimum of 3 feet around the hydrant to quickly gain access and have room to work during a fire. If a hydrant is lost or buried in the snow, firefighters can lose valuable time trying to locate it when they first arrive. Please keep in mind your neighbors who may not be able to dig hydrants out near their own homes. Neighborhood associations may want to consider adopting the area fire hydrants to shovel them out. If you see a damaged hydrant or water flowing, please call the Water Department immediately at 763-295-3170 to report the problem so repairs can be made. SNOWPLOW SAFETY 0 .-441 SNOWPLOWING Plowing begins after snow accumulates to • g g •�� or more and stops falling. When snowfall continues for extended periods, crews plow main collector routes and streets that connect neighborhoods to state and county roads to keep these roads passable until all city streets can be plowed. Follow-up passes are made as needed. If strong winds and drifting cause unsafe conditions for snowplow drivers, plowing stops until conditions improve. Every effort will be made to keep streets open to help people reach their destinations safely. 2 01 7-18 1 Fall & Winter 11 PLOW DAMAGE The City does not assume liability for damages to obstacles in the road right-of-way (irrigation systems, landscaping, etc.) If possible, please remove these obstacles from the right-of-way or clearly mark them to aid plow drivers. • Make sure your mailbox post is solid and securely fastened to the box. Sometimes snow from the plow can dislodge the box from the post or bend/ break a weak post. The City will reimburse the cost CITY OF M onticeMflo PUBLIC WORKS of materials to replace a broken mailbox only if we determine the mailbox was damaged from direct contact with a plow. To report a damaged mailbox, please call Public Works at 763-295-3170. Often, plow drivers literally "feel" their way along streets because of conditions, and lawns may be damaged. If this happens to your lawn, please report it to Public Works at 763-295-3170. Damages are repaired each spring with black dirt and seed or sod. SIDEWALKS & PATHWAYS City crews plow many sidewalks and pathways (to see what is plowed, view the complete route map online). The sidewalks and pathways designated as school pedestrian routes are plowed first, and every effort is made to have these routes open by 7 a.m. on school days. If schools are closed, these routes may not be plowed as quickly. Other sidewalks and pathways listed in the policy will be cleared after the city streets have been plowed. Property owners are responsible for clearing snow and ice from adjoining sidewalks. If snow and ice are not removed by the owner or occupant within 48 hours following either any snowfall of 2" or more or the formation of ice, the sidewalk may be cleared under the direction of the Street Superintendent. The work will be billed to the owner at a rate of at least $75/hr. No additional notice is required, and the work may be completed without notifying the property owner. ICE CONTROL City crews apply a salt brine to primary streets before a storm arrives. This practice prevents the snow or ice from bonding or compacting to the pavement surface. Following a storm, city crews use a sand -salt mixture on icy areas. This doesn't guarantee totally ice -free streets, so drive carefully even where sanding is evident. Priority areas are sanded first, and all other areas are done as time permits. Priority areas include: • Intersections of city streets with county and state roads, school and pedestrian crossings, and all arterial street intersections controlled by stop signs. • Street intersections with higher than average traffic volumes and streets with hills and curves. 0 All other areas deemed hazardous by city crews or public safety officials. 12 www.ci.monticeIIo.mn.us CITY,O F EXCITING CHANGES AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER! MOntice110 At the Monticello COMMUNITY CENT Community Center (MCC), we are always striving to provide quality recreational experiences for our members and guests. Unfortunately, sometimes that means we have to temporarily close specific areas of the facility to make improvements. This year we closed the pool for six weeks to complete annual pool maintenance as well as a larger renovation project. The changes this fall included resurfacing the pool and spas, improving the pool area lighting, and constructing a brand new custom play structure in the zero -depth area of the pool. Please visit the MCC website for further details and updates on the pool closure and improvements. Thank you to the Becker Community Center and Monticello Middle School for their generosity during our pool closure, and thank you to our patrons for your patience during the closure. Walking track improvements were also made this year and the track has been resurfaced and is ready for you to lace up your tennis shoes! The project was completed earlier this year through a generous donation from the Mahoney family. The track is one of the most popular features at the community center, and is open to the public whenever the building is open.

Recognizing that a strong downtown represents the vibrancy c and vitality of our community, the City has been working over the last year on a plan which sets a Y vision for reinvestment in Downtown Monticello. The plan includes the work and input of various boards, business and property owners, and other stakeholders. !' L Work on the plan began in early 2017, and the plan evolved over the spring and summer with significant public engagement with the guidance of a project steering committee and public feedback received at open houses and engagement opportunities. www.ci.monticello.mn.us _4 Quoting from the draft plan, "Downtown Monticello is and On September 25, 2017, the Monticello City Council adopted shall remain the heart of the community.

Each commission member is appointed by the City Council and serves a 3 -year term. The commission reviews development plans and advises the City Council on items such as amendments to the comprehensive plan, zoning, platting, variances, and other land use issues. The Planning Commission doesn't have the power to decide which developers or projects come to Monticello. Instead their role is to manage development activities based on the Comprehensive Plan and other city guidelines. By doing this, the city can develop in a way that serves citizens effectively, providing public services and securing tax base for growth. aut %, C" o ownton ontce U. or more information on the full plan and to keep up with what is happening in Downtown Monticello, please visit the city's website and click on the "Downtown" page.

The maximum driveway width at the property line cannot exceed 30 feet and must taper to a width not to exceed 28 feet at the public street. This standard was established to balance the use of private driveways with the public right of way area, which provides space for snow storage, off-street parking, utilities and drainage, and boulevard trees. This standard applies to all driveways (residential, commercial, industrial and civic/ institutional) with the exception of driveways in specific residential areas where narrower driveways are required by code. The Monticello Building Department will work with residents installing or repairing driveways to meet this requirement. Please contact the Building Department with any questions at 763-295-3060.

Research has revealed that 53% of children & teens charge their phone or tablet on their bed or under their pillow which can be extremely dangerous. The heat generated cannot dissipate and the charger will become hotter and hotter. The likely result is that the pillow and bed will catch fire. This places the child or teen as well as everyone else in the home in great danger. Please check where you & your family charge your mobile devices. In addition to batteries overheating on flammable surfaces, there's another fire hazard associated with devices in bed, the charger itself can catch on fire. Chargers that show ssns of fraying or those that are incompatible with a device have an increased risk to go up in flames. Because we have so many more electronic devices in our bedrooms these days, taking extra precautions to prevent fires is necessary. Spread the word about charging phones in bed to your children, teens, and college kids to keep them safe! Source: tiphero.com/bedtime-phone-charging/ Help Prevent Car Break-ins & Neighborhood Crime . Lock Your Doors and Secure Your Vehicle A majority of car break-ins and thefts result from unlocked cars. Even if you're parked in front of your house, in your driveway or inside your garage, lock your doors. Criminals like to walk down the street and see if a car is unlocked. If it is, they open the door and take whatever is visible and move on to the next target. However, if the door is locked, they are more likely to move on. STASH BEFORE YOU PARK Thieves like to window shop! Avoid leaving anything visible in the car, your spare change, sunglasses, even an empty bag could be valuable in the mind of a thief. WRIGHT COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE 24 HR NON -EMERGENCY: 763-682-1162 EMERGENCY: 911 Stow your electronics and accessories well out of sight, or just take them with you. Try to get in the habit of putting items you want hidden in the trunk of your car before you arrive at your destination. Thieves will linger in busy parking lots looking for you to stash your valuable items. PARK SMART Park in a busy, well -lit area and avoid concealment from larger vehicles, fences, and foliage. Avoid parking in isolated and poorly -lit areas. If parking in your garage, it is also a good idea to close all windows, lock the doors, and take the keys inside with you. Also, make sure your garage doors are locked and overhead doors are closed (it is a good idea to keep your overhead garage doors closed as leaving them open advertises to thieves what is in your garage). REPORT SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY Get to know the normal activities in your neighborhood, be aware of your surroundings, and be familiar your neighbors. If you see suspicious activity or people in your neighborhood, call 911 immediately! When calling 911, please provide the dispatcher with as much information as possible, such as: • Location: Provide an address, block number, or specific location in a parking lot. • Description of the suspect: Provide as much information as you can, i.e. gender, race, age, height, weight, hair color and length, color and length of facial hair, colors and style of clothing, and identifying marks such as tattoos or piercings. • Direction: If the suspect flees, give the direction of travel. If they flee on a bicycle or in a vehicle, describe the color, make, model, and license plate number if it is safe to do so!

Please place your tree at the curbside by 7 a.m. on Monday, January 8, 2018. Trees will be picked up throughout the week and brought back to Public Works for chipping. It is essential that the trees are un -bagged and free of stands, ornaments, metal objects, wires, lights, etc. Wreaths will not be accepted. If you are unable to have your tree at the curb by this date, you may drop it off at the Public Works Facility at 909 Golf Course Road. All questions can be directed to Public Works at 763-295-3170. BOULEVARD TREE TRIMMING Maintenance of boulevard trees, those located at the curbside or in the road right of way, are the responsibility of the abutting property owner per City Ordinance 8-5-5. However, due to safety concerns for large vehicles (such as fire trucks, buses, sanitation trucks, etc.), and as a courtesy to residents, street -side tree trimming is done routinely by Public Works staff during the winter months at no cost to the property owners. All trimming is performed under the direction of certified arborists to ensure trees are trimmed in a manner that protects the health of the trees. After a tree is trimmed, it may look rather bare as trees are typically trimmed high to provide for public safety. Don't worry, it will begin to look normal during the next growing season with a healthier and more attractive form and structure. SNOWMOBILING RULES OF THE ROAD Snowmobiles are PERMITTED to operate in the following areas of the City: • Designated snowmobile trails. • City streets with curb and gutter. • Back -slopes or ditch bottoms on streets with defined ditches.
