RESOLUTION�NO 55 1975 - REGARDING THE ISSt1ANCE OF INtQXICATING LIQUOR LICENSE - MAPLE LANES: The City Manager explained that the resolution presented•to the Council was the same resolution that had been adopted for the other applicants. He said the resolution indicates the City's intention to issue a liquor license to Maple Lanes avith the understanding that the area be upgraded and that the applicant meet the requirer�ents of the updated revised Ordinance and Codes. 7he City Manager asked if tF�e reservation for the period of six months would be enough time for the completion of the construction. 7he City Manager recalled that the appTicant's goal for completion was sooner than this Period of. tin�e. He asked if the members of the Council had any questions. Councilman Starwalt asked if there was some question concerning the square footage requirements. The City Ptanager said thiswould be taken care of and Mapie Lanes will have to meet all of the standards of the Code, or the license would not be issued. Councilman Starwalt said he wished this could be agreed to before the adoption of the resolution. Councilman Ereider said if th� Council does not like the plan, they would y6 PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 not issue the license. PAGE 2 � � Mayor Nee said the Council did see a draft of the plans the previous week and there were some changes discussed and agreed to by the applicant. Tne City Manager said the Council is not issuing the license, they are just reserving it upon the applicant's completion of the necessary requirements. Councilman Starwalt questioned the Finance Director on the criteria on what would be considered food and what would be considered liquor under the 40/60 split require- ments. He said what is liquor, what is mix, has this been set out in sufficient detail? Ne said if 3.2 beer is not considered intoxicating liquor, wou'cl this be considered food? The Finance Director said the City could send out a letter with this type of matter explained in detail. He said he had not felt that mix ��rould be considered food, nor did he believe that 3.2 beer is not an intoxicating lic,uor. He again mentioned that the criteria could be clarified in a mailing. He said he did not really believe that any part of the drink would be considered food. Councilman Starwalt said he agreed with the concepts of the finance Director, but he had been trying to find out the problems that the other areas have been having and the City of Fridley should know what these concerns are. He said this should be clear to the City and the accountant reviewiny ihe establishments bocks. The Finance Director said he did not think that �these costs could be separated wrile ringing them up. Councilman Starwalt said he had heard tales that this is one of the problems that the State is having. He said this should be defined and the people should live within the requirements. Councilman STarvlalt correnenied he did not think there would be any problems with the current businesses in the City, but what about the future? The Finance Director said this should be follo�ved up with a letter.of clarification. Mayor Nee said he felt this to be an Administrative problem. Hesaid he did not believe there should be any action on the Council level on this concern.` Council�an �±arwalt said he thought that this should be looked into. He said he would like the City to be on solid form ground and this would have to apply to any people coming in in the future. The City Manager said the Adminisiration had not had any doubt on this matter. Ne said there may be some cases where there is something mixed with the lieuor, but he questioned if the operator would be able to specify so much receipts from tne olive in a drink. Councilman Fitzpatrick indicated that if a drink is purchased with water as the mix, the cost would be the same for the purchaser as if the drink was prepared with coke as a mix. Mayor Nee said the question would not be the cost of the operator to purchase the mix, etc. The City would be dealing with the receipts from the lic,uor sales. . ' Councilman Starwalt asked how the food wou1d be considered if the estab1ishment offered a smorgasboard with the drinks and this food was free to the drink purchasers. Mayor Nee said this would not be the City's concern. They would be only concerned with the • receipts from the liquor and if the establishment wanted to �,ive food away free, this ' would be fine. Mayor Nee said the City would be concerned with the revenues taken in by he sale of liquor ��ersus faod, not the cost of the food provided by the restaurant. Councilman Fitzpatrick said he thought this should be clarified by the Administration. . He mentioned the businesses in the City could be informed by letter. Councilman Starwalt said this is one of the questions that had been brought to him by _ ' the people of the City of Fridley. , The City Manager said anytk�ing dispensed with the liquor should be considered liquor ° receipts. Cour;�ilman Breider said he did not think it would be feasible for an esatablishment � to ring up everything separate on the till. He thoughi they would be more interested in making sales than spending the time at the register dividing the items sold. He ;� i • said in comparing the purchases to the sales, they were talking about the opera�tors . keeping two sets of books. . � � J i � , �I i �I � � � � � � 1 � � II� � . PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 PAGE 3 y7. Mayor Nee stated that the City would not be able to issue a license for a bar, onTy a restaurant, according to the State Statutes. He said if the operator does not sell the proper amount of food, his license would be in jeopardy. • . MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to adopt Resolution No. 55-]975, regarding the issuance of an intoxicating license to Maple Lanes. Seconded by Councilwoman Kukowski. Upon a voice vote all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Mayor Nee asked the�Finance Director to prepare a draft relating to the concerns voiced by Councilman Starwalt. The Finance Director said he would do this. CONSIDERA7ION OF LE6ISLATION ON MANDATORY COMPREHEtdSIVE PLANNING UNDER THE ME7R0 COUNCIL: The City Manager explained that he did not think a formal bill had been introduced. He osed pointed out that the group of City Managers within the Metro Municipalities strongly opp such action. Bloomington had first opposed the action and then took action to support the legislation with certain modifications in the proposal. He said their support would go in line withihose matters of Metropolitan significance such as planning of sewer and transportation, etc. The City Manager explained at the present time, the proposai vaas still within the Subco�rmittee. Mayor Nee said he felt that the proposal would be vc,:ed out of the subcommittee by the following day. . . The City Manager said the pr-oposal would give the Metro Council some additionai authority they do not have at the present time. � The City Manager continued to comnent that some say that the Metro Council should have some additional say in ihe activities of the area. He said it would be possible for the Council to approve the proposal with some modification in that the Metro Council have this authority as it relates to the broad powers within the Metro Area. He a�so indicated that there is .a propos�l that the members of the Metro Council be e?ected. The City Manager felt if they ar2 elected, they would have more power. The City Planager commented that he felt the Metro Council members are too far from their base. The City Manager said another alternative of the Council may be to do nothing on the proposal. The City t�1anager explained with the amount of material sent out by the Metro Council, the City had not received any information on this proposal. Councilman Fitzpatrick said he thought a communication had referred to the proposal by a house file number. The City Manager said the proposal had been made by the Sub- comnittee and not given a number at the present time. Mayor Nee said the proposal realty slipped through. tdith a17 the information sent by the Metro Council; on this, nothing was sent out. ��7ayor Nee said he felt that Mr. Vern Peterson of the Associatior. of the Metropolitan Municipalities really misses the point. Ne continued to say that Mr. Peterson said the proposal only rela;.es to pnysical systems such as sewer and this would enable the Metro Council to match adjoining systems. He pointed out that this proposai would bring about confiict. Mayor Plee said if there is a conflict in plans, it would be the power of the�Metro Council to tell the various municipalities io change their plans. He said this would notonly relate to the municipal governments, but also to the various school districts. Mayor Nee said if this type of proposal had been adopted several years ago, the City of Fridley would not have been as prosperous as it is today. Mayor Nee said the downtown people had the City of Fridley routed for something the City did not become. Mayor Nee said he had real reservations on the proposal. Mayor Nee continued to corrment that the mandatory planning would require ail of the plannng to be done within a year or year and a half. Mayor Nee said he did not think there were this many planners in the City. He said there may be 40 planners with 180 plans to be done. He said this would be a fiasco. He mentioned that in this area, there would be no adverse effects on the City of Fridley because their comprehensive plan had been completed, but it would have an effect on the outlying suburbs and communities. Mayor Nee also felt that the sending of all plans to the Metro Cou��il would be cumberso�e. He said he was opposed to the Metro Council making de�isions on the land use in the Metro area. Mayor Nee said he thought that the City should send representat�ves to indicate that the City would not favor giving the.Metro Councii sitch broad powers. Councilman Breider said the part that bothered him would be that under the proposal, all of the comnunities would have to submit their plans for development to all the other local governments in their area. He listed the areas surrounding the City of Fridley y� PUBLIC FIEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 PAGE 4 � and indicated that this would also include the various school districts. He said this seemed like a tedious task. Councilman Fitzpatrick said he did .not feel that the Metro Council was encouraging the proposal, he felt the legislature was trying to do this for them. Mayor Nee said he thought this legislation was being supported by the Metro Council. t�layor Nee said he was not sure that the Metro Council itself had taken a position on the proposal, he knew that the staff had. Councilman Brieder recalled a conment he had heard on the radio and said if the Metro Area becomes too restrictive, people and devel_opers are going to move out of the area. Councilman 6reider said if he were a.developer and was told that he could not develop because there was no sewer line, he wauld go to an area where he could develop without one. � Councilman Starwalt said it seemed that there was a speedy push on the proposal and he disliked this type of action. Councilman Starwalt said there had not been any citizen input. He suggested that perhaps the Council should wait on taking any stand on the proposal. Mayor Nee sa�d he thought':the consideration should be held over for one year in order to enable a price tag to be placed on the action. He said it must be determined what would be sQent per plan. He said fio: oppose the entire proposal would tend to put the City against planning, and the City did no oppose planning. Councilman Starwalt said the City's years of experience in planning would give them more answers than some corranunities. He said he did feel that this was not the best situation within the seven county area, but he would not want to stand in the way of planning. Councilman Breider said the planner would have to submit plans and set the figures and he believed that the Metro Council would receive 15 tons of paper with the proposal and he could see no way that they could keep up with this. Mayor Nee said he felt the Metro Council could trust the City to figure out the necessary plans for the area. Ne questioned what would happen if the Metro Council would indicate that the City has too much industiral land? He asked if they would direct the City to change the zoning to create rflore low cost residential. Mayor Nee said he believed that this type ofi action would go beyond the intention and requirement of their systems. Hesaid they should not be given the power to do this, even if it is indicated that they would r.ot. Councilman Breider said he had.heard some of the Metro Counci1 people talk and he would not put anything past them. Councilman Stanr�alt said the City Council of Fridley could let this consideration go by them at this time, or ask that action cn the proposal not be taken for tfie period of one year. � Mayor Nee responded stating that the matter may be voted out of the subcommittee at any time. He said the action by the City of Fridley may have some bearing on how the representatives vote. . Councilwoman Kukowski asked if the indication of the City's should be submitted by means of a letter of intent or a resolution. Councilman Starwalt said he felt the letter of intent would ge good. He asked if the City P4anager would draft such a letter. • Councilman Breider said he thought the City should take a stronger stand. He said those cormiunities at the starting point would be bearing financial hardships. Mayor Nee said the Metro Council is offering to pay for this. Councilman Breider said this • would be a burden on the State taxpayers. . Councilman E3rieder noted that it would be tedious to have to submit plans for all development to all of the area comr�unities, Metro Council and School Districts. ' Mayor Nee said the area comnunities do cooperate when this is suitable and the school districts aiso cooperate with the Gity. The City Manager agreed that there is cooperation between the area governmental units and school districts. He mentioned with the comprehensive plan, this would be necessary .without passing a law an it. �� Mayor Nee said the cost for such implementation could be very high. Councilman Starwalt. asked if the stronger stand could be noted in opposition to the.unknown costs? , � � ' 1� ' � � • PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 � . 99 PAGE 5 Councilman Breider agreed with this statement. Councilman Breider said the proposal is talking about two levels of planning, one the Metro type control or decisions on _ , coordination of the corrmunity projects on a higher scale and the other, decisi0ns concerning individual parcels and their planning. Councilman Breider said he thought their input should be limited to the large scale major situations with Metropolitan and major • significance. Ne thought they should be concerned with matters such as the amount of discharge in the sewer rather than the type of housing or industrial land within the City. � Mayor Nee said he thought this would allow the Council to act in an arbitrary way. • Mayor Nee continued to point out that if the arbitrary criteria is adopted, this would affect all comrnunities, and in this respect the City of Fridley will be fine because their comprehensive plan has been submitted. He thought this would relate to cities such as Burnsville and Lino Lakes. Mayor Nee thouqht these powers should be limited to the coliection of se�vage rather than questioning the ratio of residential land to industria} land within the City. Councilman Breider agreed with the concept and asked how many time a toilet would be flushed in a.�carehouse. He thought this wouid not be very many times. Councilman Breider said the use of the land as industrial in this type of construction would not increase the sewer flow. Councilman Sreider quest.�ned if their criteria is always right, and asked why there should be a chang2 when it had not been determined who is right. ' The Ctty Manager said the proposed legisiation would take away the powers that the City does have. He further suggested that perhaps the Council would like to only oppose ihe proposal insome areas and restrict their power in certain areas: � Councilman fitzpatrick said he did not think that Bloomington really took a stand of support in their action as reported in the Minneapolis Star. He explained that they suggested modification of the powers in many area Mayor Nee sa�d he felt he could go along with the Bloomington proposal very easily. � � � j i I � The City Manager indicated the Council would have the alternatives of opposing the proposal or indicating it would favor modification. He said if the powers are defined and only relate to those matters ��ith Metropolitan significance this wou7d not broaden their powers. Councilman Fitzpatrick said he would not ]ike to do anything that curtail �h� �tetro Council's work in problems with urban sprall. Mayor Nee said he agreed with this point, but felt the current proposal was asking for ��ne arbitrary powers for the Metro Council. Councilrnan Fitzpatrick saidmaybe, the Administration could bring in some resolution for Council consideration. The City Manager questioned if this resolution should relate to the point that was made concerning the additional time for study of the proposal. I;e said the City could request that this be delayed for action for the period of one year and also indicate if the Legislature feel5 that it should be acted on, request that the P1etro Council powers be more restricted, The City Manager expressed dislike for the methods of informing the area comniunities. He said the first notice the City of Fridley and about the proposal was sent out by the Rssociation of htetropolitan Municipa]ities. The City Manager said he felt a stronger resolution shou�d be drafted stating the City would not want the Metro Council to have ad��tional powers. Mayor Nee agreed stating the powers they do have should reiate to their capital systems. Councilman Fitzpatrick agreed that the notification of tMis proposal had been rushed and in ' other areas, the M2tro Council addresses issues in great length. The City Manager said he would recommend that the Council take the position that the Metro Council has a certain roll to play, but that this shoiald be restricted to certain areas. Councilman Fitzpatrick mentioned that until the Metro Council has excercised the powers that they do have at ihe present time, they would not be ready for additional powers. Mayor Nee said he thought the Metro Council had all the powers it needs at the present time. He mentioneC the aspect of their granting powers in relation toihe develop- ment of the•comnunities and said if the criteria of the Metro Council is not followed, the area communities would'�ot receive funding grants. Councilman Fitzpatricl: asked Mayor Nee what his position on this concern is. Mayor Nee said he felt the degree of representation on the �ocal level to be far superior than the Metro Council thinks. Ne stated the local power and judgement can be trusted and is more responsive and more dependable than if the Metro Council were to be elected and given the powers now entrusted to local officials. He said it is very hard to get 100 PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 PAGE 6 hold of a Metro Council i mer*�er and it is very easy to get in touch with the local Council and Administration. Mayor Nee continued to comment that if this is done by State Statutes, this would create tons of paper and be a bonanza for planners. He recalled that the concept of neighborhood councils had been tried in Minneapolis. Mayor Nee said in New York the central planning had been tried and it did not work because the people felt alienated. Mayor Nee said he would tend to agree with the Sloomington statement in that their powers should be modified within the proposal and defined more precisly. P1ayor Nee said he thought it would be a real mess if 100 communities began to plan atl at one time. He questioned where all of the planners would be. Councilman Brieder asked if the resolution could be drawn by the coming week's Council meeting. The City Manager said this may be too late. He continued to comment that the Metro Council should have power on a limited basis and not given such broad powers. He said this would just create additional red tape and ihey have the powers that are needed by them at the present time. The Gity Manager mentioned the amount of paper that is generated by the Metro Council and explained that the Council only receives a part.of this paper. He also referred to the Metro Council structure and said there is a whole building full of people generating paper. He questioned the a�rnunt of time they had occupied the building and •he amount of people they have. Councilman 5tarwalt asked if the feelings of the Council cou�1� be summed up in a- letter rather than the Council making this legis�aticn. He questioned the overall costs: • The City Manager said the Administration would bring something back to the Council by the coming week. Ne said the Administration would attend the upcoming week's meeting on the matter. Mayor Nee said he felt the City Manager understood the matter and could represent the Council at the meetings. Council�nan Starwalt indicated he approved of the City Maiiager representing the Council at the legislative meetings on the matter. MOTION by Councilman Starwalt to authorize the City Manager to attend the various Legislative meetings and be the Council's representative at these meetings. Seconded by Councilwoman Kukowski. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimoualy. Mayor Nee said he thought there would be a meeting at 10:00 A.h",. the followinq day. The City Manager asked the Council if they would still like some type of resolution for action the following meeting and Mayor Nee said yes. RESOLUTION N0. 59-1975 - A RESOLUTION OPPOSTNG THE FORMULA USED FOR DISTRIBUTION Of STATE AID - SENATE FIL� l�ll: The City Manager explained tha the Finance Directot° had attended the meeting concerning Senate File 1011 because he had to attend another meeting. . The Finance Director stated the Council tiad supported the proposed biil relating to � 6ross earnings on Railroad and Telephone companies, the grass earnings bi11 was the x Governor's proposal. The Finance Director said the tax revenue from qross earnings ' is now going to the�State of Minnesota and this would shift the gross earnings back to � the municipalities. He said this bill would give municipalities more state aid and would result in lower property taxes. Ne said the proposed Senate File 1011 by Coleman would do two things, the State would distribute certain state aids now going to the counties to the municipalities. The State would pick up certain welfare costs now being paid by the county. The Finance Director said the bills are tied together because there is a question ofi,whether the State could fund both, the gross earnings proposal and the Senate File � 1011, welfare proposal, one of the other may be adopted. � The Finance Director explained Senate File 1O11J welfare proposal stating the Counties los� $31,000,000 they receive from State Aid funds. This would 6o to the municipalities. He said the formula for distribution of the State aid unfairly treats cities like �ridley. < Mr. arunsell said with this formula, Minneapolis and St. Paul would get a disproportion- � ate share or one half of the total or from 15 to 18 mil1ion. � � The Finance Director pointed out ,anb�her way for the Council to look at the alternative was that under the Governor's prorosal,'the City wou.l�l receive $257,000, which would �o towa�dS� reducing the property tax. �nder the Coleman 8ill, the City would receive ' $53,000 in State Aid to reduce the property tax. He further explained that if the i4� $31,000,000 were redistributed back under the same formula as being used at the present � � � � IU1 PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 PAGE 7 time, the City of Fridiey would receive $335,000 fn additional State Aid. He indicated that these figures were furnished by Senator Coleman's office. The Finance director informed the Council that the Governor had a r�r�entative speak in opposition to the Coleman Bill. He explained that Dean Lund of the League of Minnesota MuniciPalities spoke in opposition to the bill. The Finance Director said Senate File 10ii «ould gfve Minneapolis and St. Paul an unfair advantage over every one else in the State. A question was raised on the per capita formula and if the formula was different in the Metro area. The City Manager said if the City taxes the people more, they would , receive more State Aid. The Finance Director explained ihat the mill rate in the Minneapolis and St. Pual areas is raised through the inclusion of improvements and such things as garbage coilection placed on the tax statements. The City Attorney said � the mill rate is only part of the formu]a. He also mentioned that the rate is of the rea7 estate taxes v�rsus the assessed valuation would have a bearing. The finance Director said this would be equalized first to take care of inequities in the assessing process. He said this would put everyone on an ec,ual plain. � The City Manager said the Administration was not opposed to �e City getting the money, the��, were oppo�ed to �e disp�nportionate �f7are coming back to the fity. The Finance Director said he opposed the formula. He continued to comment that this was not to fair to the people in the suburbs and if this would pass, there would not be enough money � for the gross earnings bill on the Railroad and Telephone Companies. Ne said this would take money away from State funds and they both could not be passed. � Mayor Nee asked if the best proposal for the City of Fridley wou7d be the Governor's proposal and the Finance Director sa�d this would give the most aid directly to the �lty. 7he Finance Director said under Senate File 1011, the City would receive approximately $628,000 total of State Aid Funds. He further explained that this would be $b3,OQ0 in � addition to the $565,000 that is currenily received, but under the same formula that is being used at t�� present time, the City would receive an additional $335,000 for a total of $900,000. The Finance Director recommended that the Council take action to favor Senaie File 10]l, but oppose the formula for distribution of State Aid. Councilman Fitzpatrick said this action wou�d only oppose t.he formula and would not jeopardi2e the gross earnings tax. The Finance Director said yes, if the proposal is approved, �he City would be indicating they would like to use the o7d formula for distribution of Senate Fi7e 1011 were to pass. ; MOTION by Councilman Breider to adopt Resolution No. 59-1975, op�asing the formula , for distribution of State Aid funds, Senate File 1011. Seconded by Councilv�oman Kukowski. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unaniraously. CONSIDERATIOPI OF HOt1SE FILE 7.54 fOR PROVIDING FUNDING FOR ISLANDS Of PEACE: , The City Manager explained that the bill had been in thesubcommittee and would be before the full committee the next morning. He saitl the Subcommittee was concerned with the short term lease between the Foundation and the City and suggesied that there be a , longer corrennitment for the land if this amount of money were to be put into the area. The City Manager explained that the Administration did not feel that there would be ; any problem in conN��itting the land for this ]ong a time. He said there may be some concern about the maintenance of the area over this period of time. He said it would be possible to corrmit the land to the recreational use of the handicapped for a period �, of 99 years. He pointed out to the Council that Hodges Island wouidnot be under City control after the period of ten years. The City Manager said it would be possible to commit the lar,d for a period over the four to five years period if this is the Coancil's desire. Mr. Qureshi said he hoped thatthe morey could be obtained and the facility could become a more regional type park. He said his only reservation if that the City may be required to maintain and take care of the facility and buildings under the current maintenance fund, and it would not be possible to do this. ' The City Manager explained the application process for obtaining the funding by ' 'stating the City of Fridley would be making the application through the State Planning III , Agency, the money would not be going directly to the Foundation. He said this would be simi]ar to the application and funding procedures that had been followed for North � Park. He �id the funds would ccme to the City and in turn, the City can have a ,_ relationship with the Islands of Peace. 102 PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 . PAGE 8 Mayor Nee asked the City Manager if he felt the Co�nittee vaould settle for an additional 25 or 50 years rather than 99 years. Councilr�an Breider asked if they were tali:ing about the extension of the lease or the commitment for maintenance of ihe facility for the use of the handicapped. The City Manager said they were talking about the lease. He mentioned that the question of whether or not the Islands of Peace Foundation would become inactive or defu�tshould be considered. He commented that the Foundation has a legal and moral obligation to turn the property back to the City. Councilman 8reider asked if it would be possible for the City to prepare a letter of understanding contingent on the money going to this purpose. Mayor Nee asked if Councilman areider's intent would be to guarantee that the land would be continuously available. Coui:cilman Breider said yes, the City would guarantee to develop the facility for the handicapped. Councilman Breider said he did not feel the extension of the lease at this time would make any sense. Mayor Nee asked if the Council could give the City Manager some direction on the terms to be agreed upon. Mayor Nee continued to comment that the City could say that there would be no problem as long as the City would not have to program the development of the land or the complete mainten- ance of the facility. He added, yes, the City could make the land available for the purpose of recreational facilities for the handicapped for who ever wants tc orogram it. Mayor Plee asked the Council if the City Planager be given the dtscretion to reach an agreement in this line. The City Manager asked th2 �ouncil what would be their suggestion if the comnittee demanded the lease be extended for the full 99 years. Mayor Nee said this would be a long time. The City manager said there would be some problems in the commitment of the land. He.indicated that the maintenance commitment on the part of the City of Fridley would be paying for the maintenance of a regioiial park. He said he thought the City would be doing its share to commit the land. The City Attorney said regardless of what the City does with the lease, there will be some negotiations with the State Planning Agency. He said all of these ihings will have to be ironed out. The City Attorney said the State Planing Agency might say the City will have to be responsible for the construction and maintenance of the faci1ity. Mayor Nee said the maintenance factor did not bother him, but if the City staffed the facility and provided busses and this ±.ype of function, this would be undf�sirable. The City Attorney said if the State is expending this amount of money, they might take some action to handle the operations of the facility. The City Attorney said this would not be determined by the City or the Legislature at the present time, this would be done by the State Planning Agency in the future. Mayor Nee said the exact terms did not have to be on paper at this time. The City Manager said he would exp�ess the view that the City is willing to enter into a longer commitment for land use. , MOTION by Councilman Breider to comnit the land for a certain period of time for recrea- tional use by the handicapped and general public contingent on the receipt of the grant for the Islandsof Peace project in the amount of $Z50,000. Seconded by Councilwoman Kukowski. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor PJee declared the motion carried unanimously.

RESOLUTION N0. 58-1475 - IN OPPOSTTI�N TO HOUSE FILE 1159 RELATING TO � The Finance Director said the proposed House File �NOUId limit the late payment charge � to not more than ll per month and would prohibit the use of tax rolls for collection of delinquent accounts. Mr. Srunsell explained that the City has used this method of collectionextensively and had not taken the agressive action of turning off water. � . i ' i� � L� !03 PGBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 PAGE 9 He explained that theprocess of turning off the water to be quite expensive and it would not be possible to turn the water off for an apartment building. He explained an. alternative action would be to take the collection matters to court. Giving the Council an example of this kind of action, Mr. Brunsell recalled the matter in question of collection that had come up the previous week. He :said the City nad taken a person t�o court for non payment of a water bil] and the court decided in favor of the City and the City still does not have the money. He said the use of the tax rolls for this type of collection is a very valuable tool to the City. He said it is not a costly process, and there are less problems in this method of collection than any other. He said theCity is bound to get a few coinplaints on the method, but this would be less than what would occur in the other methods. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked what is behind the legislation to not put the delinquent utiiity bills on the tax rolls. The City Manager exp]ained the back ground on the proposal by saying that one community put an excessive penalty of about 40% on past due bills. Ne said some citizens felt this was undue pressure. The City Manager said the City of Fridley does not have this problem, their charges are no where close to this. � The City Manager pointed out the City's opposition was not directed at the penalty por- tion of the House. File. He said they did oppose th�� stand to not allow utility bills to go on the tax roils, and this is the basic reason for bring this matter to the Council. The City Manager said the City's Utility Fund is self sustaining and if the City would. have to expend addiiional funds on collection, the people who are paying their bi]ls would have to be taxed for this. The City Manager said it is the people that are not paying their bills that should pay the price. 7he City Manager recommended that the Council adopt the resolution. Councilman Fitzpatrick said as a practical matter, if he had a delinquent water bill, he would want the balance to be placed on the tax rolls rather than pay the lump sum payment or have the water turned off". The City Attorney said he agreed with the Finance Director in that it would be undesir- able for ttie City to turn off the water with no notification. He continued to explain the problem that had been discussed at the previous meeting of the Council when a lady owed a$76 water bill and was taken to court. He said the time spent on ti�z matter by the new home owner, the legal consultants, City staf-F, price of the filing and transcripts and sending the sheffif out, the City would be spending much more in this collection procedure. Mayor Nee explained that he had been concerned with this being a proper use of the City's taxing power. He said this would be come a tax burden if the City failed to collect the amount. The City Attorney said the utiiity bills are a service for which payment is owed the City just as tax for special assessment would be. The City Manager explained that the City is providing the service and is not a profit making business. He said this couTd be contracied out, but as a City function, it is a self sustaining function where who ever uses the services pays for the service. The City Manager emphasized that the proposal would create a burden for those who are willing to pay for their utility bills by raising the cost and those creating the problem should bear the burden. � MOTION by Coun�ilman Breider to adopt Resolution No. 58-1975, in opposition to House File 1159 relating to pub]ic utilities limiting late payment charges and prohibiting use of tax rolls to collect municipal utility bi11s. Seconded by Councilman Starwalt. � Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Nee declared the motion carried unanimously. Councilman Stan-.�altstated he thoughi it to be unfortunate that the man how had appeared at the last week's Council meeting was unable to resolve the transfer of the property without the delinquent water bill. The Finance Director said in most cases, people will buy the property before they ever come into City Hall for any reason. He added, he could not guarantee that prospective buyers would be notified before purchasing a home in Fridley. He pointed out that the 4Jater Department is estabiishing a procedure . so that this information would be avai1able in a title search on the property, but this information could on ly be conveyed if the search was completed before the purchase. He mentioned he could not guarantee that there would be an assessment search. � The City Attorney noted that one of the local legislators is sponsoring the House File. 7he Finance Director indicated that there are two parts to the proposal and the penalty portion may be the portion he is supporting. �__._ . _ _. — - __ __. . _ _ __ _ 104 PUBLIC HEARING MEETING OF APRIL 14, 1975 PAGE 10 Mayor Nee said he had the feeling that NSP may have to go to court to turn off people's electric and have a court order to do this. He said this would have to be done with a claim in private business. He said he felt that NSP and the Gas Company should have to do this. He further explained that when he first saw the proposal, he thought this is what the City would have to do also. He questioned if the claims should be documented beyond the City's satisfaction or whether this should be settled by other people. The City Manager explained that NSP is a profit making business and tl��e City of Fridley is not. He said the City was only providing service and the Administration would have a responsibility to the citizens. He nentioned no one would be rilled if there is a problem or a malfunction. The City P"anager said the City ti��ould have to be more accoutable to the citizens than NSP. The City ATtorney said notices are sent out to the people before the delinquent uti1ity t�ill is levied on the tax statement. The Finance Director said the people are sent a notice that if the bill is not paid in a certain number of days, the amount will be placed on the tax rolls. lie said after this time the Council.is given the list of delinquent accounts for consideration in form of a resolution. The City Manager said the people are notified three times �hat they huve a past due bill. CONSIDERATIC?'

The AMM's involvement started in July of" 1974 when Elliott Perovich, APdl4i P�esident, sent a letter to the membership asking ior local officials (elected and administrative) to serve on policy study committees� The Metropoli�tan Agenc�.es Committee, chaired by Clyde Allen, AMM Vzce Pres�dent, and consisting of 25 local officials was formed to study and bring fo�th recommendations r�elative to compr�ehensive planning and the need �or coordination and a clear� definition of the relationships between and among various units and levels of government with respect to land use planning, (�11 officials who o�ter�ed to serve were appointed to the com.rnittee)o Simultaneously, the separate Development F�am��vo�°k Committees of the former ivletropolitan and Suburban Leagues wer�e meshed together under the co-chairmanship of Peter Enck9 New Hope Cauncilman, and Orvil Johnson, b2endota Heights Administrator, to continue their monitoring and study efiox°ts as it r°elated to the Development Framework Chapter being formu�ated by the Aietropolitan Councilo The merged Development Framework Cornmittee and the Metropoli- tan Agencies Committee met sepa�ate,ly but on a weekly basis for several months (about 15 meetings for each committee) and brought forth a number of recommendations which wer�e adopted by the Board of Directors. These recommendations were then brought to the AMM general membership on Decembe� 12y 1974 for consideration. Three key recommendations that relate to the planning process and development framework were adopted without dissent by the full membership. —1— '� These policies are: 2A ' VI-1 We urge the Metropolitan Council to adopt and the Legislature , to approve a definition of inetropolitan significance based on deviations from planned metropolitan physical public service � systems and/or deviations irom local comprehensive plans which adversely a�fect the metropolztan physical public service sys- temso , VI-2 Further, we urge the legislature to requi�e completion of lo- cal comprehensive plans and to provide for the necessary re-. sources to accomplish such local nlans. VI-3 Further, we ur�e the lega.slature to limit any new authority� ove� local com�rehensive plans to those said plans �hat impact the metropolitan physical tems< approval aspects of service sys- Using these adopted policies as the directive9 the officers of the Association an� I began meeting with John Boland and key members of his staff to get our input into the planning bill which we knew they were preparing, These discussions were car�ied on �or nearly three months, through several different proposed dr�fts of the billo The discussions were very fruitf�l, much to the credit of John Boland and the result is a bill that recognizes the need for protection of the public investment in the regional physical service facilities but also protects the rzght and responsibility of local units of gov- ernment to plan their community within this overall regional frame- work to meet the specific needs, desires and hopes of its citizens. There are several key factors involved in this pr�cess that you should clearly understand: 1. There a�e powerful• forces in this legislatu�e that would like to pass a bill �hat is much stronger in favoring the metro interests as opposed to the muni�ipal interests. (Need I remind you that the Iegislature passed a le�y limit law in �971 that did a lot of violence to local sovereignty). 2. The officers and.staff of the AMM ha�e worked very hard to hold off those fo�ces and to arrive at a position that is consistent with the policies adopted by the full membership. As is the case in any compromise, no one is totally happy with every word or sentence oi p��ase but, if after arriv- ing at a workable solution, you do not follow th�ough in good faith you iorever lose your credibility and ef�ective- ness. While this is a compromise bill, the AMM op licy positions a�e not compromised nor is the authority and responsibilzty of local governmental officials to plan their own communit.ies in any wa,y corr�promised, but it does mandate that you exercise your responsib�ilitiese 3. • You should be aware that it is only generated by a large united umbrella Association, that municipalities are fectuate compromiseo -2- through the strength group, such as the in a position to ef- I� ' �J ' �J , 4e Legislative policies and programs of the Association are formulated by you as a Mayor, Council pe�son or Aaminist�ative officiaZa Enclosed is the latest version of the bill that is being considered by Legislative Committees of both the House and Senateo The bil] has been endo�sed by the Boa�d o� Directors of the Association, and we hope that you, too, will support this efforto In addition to Elliott Perovich and Clyde Allen, Don Poss, Manager of Braoklyn Center, and Ch�is Cherches, Manager of Sto Louis Park, have been inst�umental in tu�ning a bad bill into a good billo Please do not hesitate to contact any of the above or myself should you have questions �elative to this planning bille Thank you for reading this letter which is much too long, but I wanted to lay out in detail the p�ocess that has led to the support of this bill by the �MM Board of Direct��so ' 1 � VP:sb � ' ' � � � 'cc: Managersy Administrat.ors9 Clerkse � -3- Sincerely yours, V�-� �� Vern Pete�son Executive Director � � : FF�OM A7INN�APOLIS STAI�, AP1�IL 10, 1975 �tl� � .�►` ��a ,�,. �� .�.� :a f ��: � t ��; ; ,,,., : _� By ZELAH SCALF Dlinneapoiis Star 5taff Writer The Bloominbt�on City Cotmcil r e v e r s c d itself Monday and vot�ed to sup- port pending ie�islation to require comprehensive de- veloprnent pla�ls for Twin C1i1CS CO[IlitlUt11C1eS. The council March 31 passed a resolution in op- position to the mandator,y comprehensive planning legislation. FoUert W e b s t e r, city cotnmunity developmenC director, testified April 1 before a Senate subcom- mittee that Bloomington officials �vere concerned the proposed legislation "would have t'n�� etfect �� transferring the author:ty t.o malce local land use� de- cisions fror.z ]ocal �overn- m e n t a 1�� u��its to Che Metropolitan Council." The City Council Mon- d,ay reconsidei•ed its earlier decision and voted unani- mously to support the con- cept of mandatory plan- ning in the seven-county area with restrictions that would require: Mandatory planning be retated only to metropoti- tan s��stems sucil as sew- ers, transportatiort, parks, airports ai�d land use. Metro systems which involves the entire area be specifically defined. A time frame be set for m�micipal response to the rec�uirecl planning. The Nletropolitan Coun- cit's potiver to accept or reject a city proposal be restr•icted to metro sys- tems with other city plan- niny areas being subject only to council rPView and comment. Pravision b ' included for fundir.g to assist com- munities in meeting the plarit.�ing requirements. Councilman Clyde Allen, said the City Coun- cil's initial action was based on a misunderstan- ding of the proposed legis- laticn. Robert Hoffman, Bloom- ington, a Nletropolitan Council member, n4onday complimented the Bloom- ington council for its local plannin� efforts. £loamin�ton is one of the approximately 4U com- munities in the seven- county area which has a compreliensive p 1 a n, he said, while more than 150 others do not.

Since problems of urbanization and development transcer�d local governmental boundaries, no singie unit of government can adequately plan their solution and there is a need for the adoption of coordinated plans, programs and controls by all local governmental units and sci�oo! districts in order to protect the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the ; � � ,� ..: '� s.w. y.. ;_ , ,!: .; . �°. .� • ; ' `, ,�, �` *, �.� � -:, � �f �= , -_. �, ,: .:' Roger Peterson, Cottage Grove, has been appointed Director of Legistative Affairs for the Association of Metropolitan Municipatities. The appointment was made by Vern Peterson, Executive Director of the Association and was affirmed by the Board of Dfrectors, March 6. Peierson, 34, had been a member of the Association Board of Directors until his appointment Roger Peterson and is currently the Mayor of Cottage Grove.

NO. 4 metropolitan area and to ensure coordinated, orderly and economic development." So reads the preamble of the land use planning bill sponsored by the Metropolitan Council. The main thrust of this bill and, perhaps, the most contr�versiai, is the requirement that all local units of government, including school districts, must prepare and adopt comprehensive pians and that certain elements within these loca! plans are subject to the approval of the Metropolitan Council. The bill also sets a general time schedule for completion of the local comprehensive plans basically establishing April 1, 1978 as the outside fimit for submittal of such plans to the Council for review and approval. This bill also establishes an Adv+sory Metropolitan Land Use Committee to advise and assist the Metropolitan Council in the implementation of the proposed act The bill also provides funding for grants and loans to locai units of government to help defray the added costs of preparing the comprehensive plans and the 'bfficial controls" to implement such plans. The remaining costs of impiementing this proposed act to local units of government wouid be outside the present levy limitations as the bill is now drawn. The bill also defines the basic etements that must be addressed in the local comprehensive plans. A comprehensive plan for cities must include: 1. A land use plan which designates the existing and proposed uses of land, Continued on page 4 � � M = �;� � is �r .� �� ' �' �: �� s * ,� .� � }�o .�; E � �� .. �: ._ By Roger Petersan Governor Anderson, in his budget message, did not mention � specifically the current levy limit i law or any modifications of thai law but he did state that I' additional steps must be taken this session to help local , governments finance their priority ,efforts as well as continuing efforts to reduce the pressure on , property taxes. Of utmost interest to municipal ''officials is the proposal of distributing all of the railroad and telephone gross earnings tax, approximatety 46.2 million dollars, 'to cities, counties and tov✓n�"ips. This money is in addition to current local state aids but is not 'necessarily "new" additionai spendable revenue dollars. The current levy limit law provides that state aid money reduces, dollar for dollar, levy money. Unfortunately, the governor did not indicate a change to the levy limit law nor �how much of the "new aid" should be new added revenue dollars for locai governments. The message 'on�y implies an intent to provide "new revenue." Therefore, as local officials, we cannot be complacent but must actively 'seek out our legislators. We must make it very clear that ' our municipalities need additional money, not replacement money, 'or current services will be drastica.11y reduced. Sorne portion of the 46.2 million dollars must be 'above current dollar limits to carry out the governor's intent. How much may depend entirely on how well we carry our ' message to the legislature. The Governor also proposed � revising io a normal tax level the special low valuation I' classification given to Title II pr6perty for the elderly and Class , 3CC homesteads for the blind and � Idisabled veterans. Tax relief for these classiiications in the amount of 2.5 million dollars per year would then be refunded I' directly by the Staie. However, once again, it is not clear if this would be new or replacement dollars. I' Another proposal, and probably the h+ghest prioriiy to the Governor, is the Income-Adjusted Tax Relief system which would replace the existing homestead credit, renter credit and low income senior citizen credit. Under this program a household is first expected to pay 1-1/2 percent of income in property taxes. The state wil! then pay up to $425 per family, 5625 for senior citizens or disabled persons of the, property tax, at which point the household will pay the balance of the property tax, if any. Renters property tax will be assumed as 20 percent of rent. It is assumed that under this program, taxpayers will be required to claim the property tax relief in conjunction with income tax reporting so that the computation for relief may be checked and verified. Property tax relief checks wili then be sent directly to the homeowner or renter. In summary, the Governor's Property Tax �tabilization Program dealt first and very specifically with relief for the individual citizen. Secondly, he implied that local governmenf � �� ' � Continued from page 1 including protection of open spaces.

However, it was not stated how much of these revenue source do(lars would be new spendable dollars over and above the current levy limit dollars. �ounty Government 600G�iets Available A publication entitled, "Seven Counties in Transition" is now available through the League of Women Voters in Minnesota. The booklet describes the roles of county government in the metropolitan area and how those roles are changing. Each county is described in terms of structure, function, finance, program planning, budget making, personnel management, taxing and assessing, elections laws, human services and land use. The price of each copy is $1.50 and can be purchased from the Minnesota League of Women Voters, 55 Wabasha, St. Paul, Minn. 55101. The telephone number is 224-5445. �1 i �i ' . In the legislative program adopted by the Association, we urge the Legislature to "limit any new approval authority over local comprehensive plans to those aspects of said plans that impact the metropolitan physical service systems." This position recognizes that the local plans must interface and take into account the physicat metropolitan systems, which includes the Metropolitan Airports System, the Metropolitan Parks and Open Space System, the Meiropolitan Transportation System and the Metropolitan Sewer System. This policy position -also clearly recognizes that except for this interface the municipalities should retain the authority and responsibility to prepare and adopt comprehensive plans. � FROM 1t7INNFAPOLIS STAR OI' APRIL 10, 1975 �� t � 7• � ' � � E :�� ,� � � S r `� .t' �• � � ; �.x School districts would be under the MetrQpolitan Council's planning and coordinating umbrella fo: the first time und.er a m�jcr bill being written Uy House and Senate comtnittees. Under the so-called "mandatory planning bill" all local governments and schools in the seven-county are� vaould be required to have comprehensive plans. The plans would have to fit in with the Metr000litan Council's overall development concept for the seven-county area. Municipal:ties no�� prehensive plans tq are required to submit their com- tl�e council for "review and com- ment." The new proposal �vould include the 46 school dis- tricts in the metropalitan area and give the council veto nower over projects �vith a metropolitan im- pact. Not long after the council avas establisheci by the , Legislature in 1�s87, i�s first chair�nan, James L. Hetland Jr., said the council needed "knitting and stitching po�vers" to carc!;� out its plans. The mandatory planning bill apparently does this. House and Senate subcommittees are working closely toaether on the bill, and members say tlrey ekpect it to be passed by the Le;islature this session. Rep. James Casserly, Minneapolis DPLer, cl�airman of the House subcommittee on local and urban affairs, said the bill will probably be voted out Friday. Sen, Hubert H. Humphrey III, New Hope DFL.er, said his subcommittee plans to vote on the bill Monday and send it to lhe full commiltee. A key provision of the bill says the council may re- quire the "modification" of any plan or program to in- sure its "compatibility" or "conformity" with other com- prehensive or metropolitan plans. Another lcey provision says the council shall on a con- tinuing basis "monitor" the activit�� of loca} governmen- tal units and school districts. � C c t_ . c � �,. , � , �//,/> >� Developers and Iocal officials, particularly from undeveloped areas, are strongly opposing the bill. Rep. 'Ted Suss, Prior Lalce DFLer, who comes from an area where tliere is substantial opposition, says local of- ficials are afraid they will lose their decision-making power if the bill passes: "It's saying if my city plans an industrial park on the west end, the YIetropolitan Council can say 'take it out, it's not compatible,' " he says. Peter Popovich, lobbyist for the Mimiesota School Boards Association, is attempting to get the bill amended to rei��ove the council's veto power over scheol capital improvements. In 1959, the independence of school districts was threatened when the Legislature was considering a bill to create the Minnesota Municipal Commission. The originai bill gave the commission power to order annexa- tions and consolidations of school districts as well as municipalities. Popovich, in a little-publicized co:nmittee meeting one day, succeeded in getting schools eliminated from the bill. But legistators today insist that schools have to come under council jurisdiction if there is to be effective control of the development of the seven- county area. Popovich sa��s, "We think the c^uncil ought to have the right to comment on our pl�ns, but not to veto them." The council de�sn't have the staff to get involved in education, he says. Also, he says, school districts are supporting a.nother bill in the Legislature providing for such a review by areawide educational agencies. Popovich says the Metropolitan Council would have indirect veto over school plans with review power only. If the council makes an unfavorable comment on a pro- posal for a. new scl�ool, he says, school officials would have a hard time ignoring it and going ahead with the construction. � . Casserl,y and Humphre.y say that ton oftr_n in the past, devetopers have buiit 2,000 or 3,OQs1 housing nnits in undevel�ne�! areas with nn +hrn��i�t given to schools. The�� sch�ols '�a��e to b�,'r(d therF, too, and school officials sae. "We have to have sewers," and other eYpensive uti�ities. Humphrey says if the bill had been in effect in the past, some of the suburban schools which required sub- � itantial bond issues to finance them might not have been built. "Possibly some of them that are being closed," be- cause of declining enrollments wouldn't have been built, he says. • i' �l e'`'r� 11/4/75 0 P ��t�`� ✓ �,�;;;�� 1 . 2 • 3 . . � � ' 5 6 � � . 7 8 . . 9 . lo . 11 ' 12 - " �3 .BE IT ENACTL'll BY.THE LEGISL�-'1TUP.E OF TH� STi�TE OF NINNESOT�1: • 14 ' • ' . 15 Section l.� [LEGXSI�ATI1'E FX?IDIt;GS k2aD I�UP.:�OSE:l The ._.....,, 16 lr_gi�J.atare finds�-�nd declares _th�:t�the local �ovt�*'r.r�entaJ. 17 uriCs •r;ith�n�Ch�n�fr�noliti-'r. area.Mare hi�hly 18 �nt�•r��ep°nc!�n�. thfiL fihe r�t�id g:o�::Ct, anri p��t"erns cf • ........_.._..�......�....._....�_....______�....�...._......�......r.._................._ .. 19 ur�a::izarion�'�i�n?-r.^the ar�awcr2atc the need fnr�cosCly 20 a�di�ionaly` t��LeMrM�etroi?cl;itnn and�local Pub].ic scrviCes�s^;3 21 fac! l.i.ties^�nd ir.rrc�:se�i d��*.^�er of�ai•r an3r��.•�zter pol?t�t:o� 22 M�d land destruction,'%ndYthaC�acticns by^anriWcicvel.on:�c^,ts �3 in o;�e�l.or.a1 ncvcrr.�wn��l�u^i t��fect_res'_�c�t ; of�the 2u enCtrc�netrcpol.ii:��n^:�rca�_.Since r.rohleras oi�urh?.nJ<.�iti�h �5 . _._... f. . � c. .t I' t C , r� � a;�d d��vr).r.n,.-,cnt tr.i�is�enct 2oc.�.l �ov��r��n__l.^boi��____...:.._...Y_ 26 �_.

SUBJECT: SENATE FILE 1011 - LOCAL GOVERNMENT AIDS DATE: APRIL 8, 1975 Senator Coleman has introduced a bill, a summary which is attached hereto, regarding local government aid. We do not have any figures as to how the bill will affect Fridley, and other suburban communities. However, at first glance it would appear that the bill is designed to help the central citites of Minneapolis and St. Paul at the expense of the suburbs. There will be a hearing on this bill sometime on Monday, the 14th of April. This will could have a substantial impact on a City such as Fridley.

Solid waste manapement financing. .F. 113 Ulhoft would authorize the financing of solid waste collectzon, disposal and recycling facilities thraugh the 1�funi�ipal Industrial Tkvelopment Act. The bill would also araend that aet to provide tha�t in any case in which a project involves the collectior., disposal or recycling of solid rrastes in connection with a revenue producing enterprise or combination of t:ro or more such enterprises engaged or to be engaged in any business or industry, the Municipal Industri� .

Solid Waste Manage- ment Act involving conducting a solid waste manager.ient program, including acquisition of property, constxuction and operation of facilities, management and service contracts, and development of plans.

S.F. 1011 Coleman would repeal the existing' law relating to local government aid and substitute for it the following. . ' The state would distribute $36.50 for each person residing in the state for each of the calendar years 1976 and 1977 to taxing authorities, except school districts, with authority to tax property in the state. If the aid a county government receives in 1975, beiore adjustments for prior year aid payments, is graater than the amocmt the county levied for costs in 1975 for.aid to families with dependent children, emergency assistance to rieec�y families with cliildren under 21, medical assistance, general assistance and Minnesota supplemental payments to recipients 6f supplemental security income, it sha11 receive an amount e:}ual to the difference, in 1976 and 1977. Each taxing authcrity in each county, other than the county, the school districts and the cities and towns shall receive a.n 1976 and 1977 a distribution equal to the distribution it Nas entitled to receive in 1971 pursuant to the 1969 law relating to reimbursement for exempt personal property. The balance of the distributions in 1976 pursuant to the second paragraph of this s wmnary �vould be distributed to each of the cities and totivrts in the proportion that the product of the city's or town's 1970 federal census population times its mill rate payable in 1975 times its city or town 1971, aggregate sales ratio as determined by the Commis�ioner of Revenue bears to the sur� of the product of that calculaiion for a11 cities and towns in the state. The balance of the distributions in 1977 pursuant to the second paragraph of this su�mnary would be distributed to each o£ the cities and towns in the proportion that the product of the city's or 3� � ,-.,, �� \� -5- . �r tovm's 1970 federal census population'''' �� times its mill rate payable in 1976 times its city or town 1975 ag�regate sales ratio fls determined by �the Commissioner of Revenue bears to the sura of the product of that calculation for all cities and towns. � � If the amount distributed to a city or town pursuant to the previous paragraph is less than the aids the city or to�m received in 1976, befare adjustments for prior year aid pay- ments, the amount distributed to it shall be raised to the amount the city or to�m received in 1975, before adjustments for prior year aid pay- ments, and the distributions to the other cities and to�vns would be proportionally reduced as necessary to supply the difference. Additional levies beyond limits in instances of reduced assessed valuations. S.F. 1084 Anderson tivould amend the current law relating to permitted additional tax levies in cases wk�ere the assessed value of property has been reduced after taxes for the year have been �pread. Where the assessed valuations have been reduced by court proceedings, by the Commissioner of Revenue, or by county boards, for homestead property improperly classi- fie� as non-homestead, the local taxing authority could include in its tax levy follotiving final determi.nation and notic� of the reduction, the difference in the tax which it lost. This levy would be in addition to a�l levy limitations imposed by law and could not result in any penalty in the nature of a reduction in state sid of any kind. Payments in lieu of taxes to counties n which publicly-o•;med and tax-for- feited 1<�ds are located. S.F. 1099 Arnold ��rould i•equiz•e the state to pay each caunty in which tax-forfeited land classified as memorial forest is located the sum of 25� :or each ncre so classified; and 15¢ for each acre of tax-forfeited land not classified as memorial forest 1and. This amaunt would be paid each year. GENERAL GOVERNMENT Taxes for bicentennial ro ects. S. �'. 1141. Laufenburger vrould authorize governmental units tivhieh have been approved as bicentennial communities to furnish services and property und spend money in connection with any project whicii accomplishes a public purpose and is certified by the State Centennial Commission as furthering,the overall bicentennial program. The term governmental unit means a county, city, or town. These governmental units �vould be authorized to levy taxes in excess of any appli- cable statutory or charter levy limita- tions for these purposes. Inierest in contracts. S.F. 1007 Olhoft would permit the governing body of any city, �ounty, to�rrn, port authority, seaway port authority, or school distric't, by unanimous vote, to contract for goods or services with an interested officer of the govern- msntal unit in the following cases: in governmental units having a popula- tion of 1,000 or more, vrhen competitive bids are r_�t required by law, v�here the amount does not exceed $1,000, and when the commodity or service contracted for is not otherwise available in the governmental unit; and in governmental units of less than 1,000 population, when the amount of the contract does not exceed $20,000 and the commodity or servi.ce contracted fos is not othe nvise available in the governmental .imi t. HOUSTNG Constitutional amendment to permit state to s end and borro�,v for housin . H.F. 1135 Casserly would amend the Minnesota State Constitution to permit public debt to be contracted and works of internal improvements carried on by the state to acquire, construct and maintain housing and to provide funds for grants and loans to legal and natural persons for housing purposes. Increasing range of eli�ibility for assistance from housin finance agency. H.F. 1137 Knol1 would increase the range of eligibility for assistance from the State I-Ious'ing and Finance Agency. The bill would permit the Stute Housing Finance Agency to make loans determined by the agency to be necessary to permit the occupant of residential housing to meet his housing costs without e�cpending an unreasonable portion of his incvme on them. The Housing Financing Agency �ould also provide housing assistance subsidies to assist persens and families of low and moderate income in meeting payments on eligible loans or rentals or residential housing. � The bill would appropriate $45 mfllion 3B ��,�.� o,,,� �»'p',�i!y'" ��"�!'�w?� 'u` '�� '�:'�_�" �'�� . �-�� $ ��a�¢ o� �C�zzxc¢so�a SENATE NICHOLAS D.

The pres�nt formula measures effort by using the total levy of a municipality. This measure does not take the wealth of a community into account. A communifiy with high property values couJ.d provide a high levei of services with a low rate of taxation but siill receive the same amount of aids as a poorer community with the same levy but with a ne�essarily _ higher mill rate. The formula used in this study measured effort by using the product of the municipality's equalized mill rate and its population: This latt�r measure is a better indicator of effort because the tax rate is considered. Higher equalized mill. rates would result in higher per capita payments . 3D 0 The study ditfered from the current formula in three other respects. First, the distributian to the metropolitan area and the ather 80 counties prior to the distribution to the municipalities in those counties was eliminafied. Second, the grandfather amounts were changed from the level of aids received �*t.:_`''+• ��J 1 eman P�ge Two March 12, 1975 � • � � 3E in 1973 to the aids received in 1975. 1Vo municipality, then, would lose if the formula wexe changed. And third, the county governments were eliminated fram the local aid distribution, giving munic ipal governments an additional $31 million in aids . This loss would be more than offset by the takeover of county welfare costs .(This lacal aid formula, however, could stand alone zf the counties were included in the.distribution and additional monies from the general fund were appropriated.) The report lists the seven metropolitan counties first. The column titled "grandfathe; " is the amount of aid each community received in 1975, �� and is their minimum level under the new formula. "Preliminary aid figure" . - ,� is the amount the community vwu�d have received if there was no grandfathering.. "Adjusted aid figure" is the amount each city, village, and township would have received in 1975 under the new formu�a. I. The city of St. Pau� would gain about $4 million zn local aids under " this formula. Minneapolis would gain about $8 million. Under the present 0 levy limitations, this v� uld all go to property tax relief. R -' .I ' : , i � 3F � � � . .._...... • � ' � � t r � t � r � t •r � t - . _ . � � (V �r•.

"i��;;� �; ; THE CAP170C. 87. PAUL L8155 I012) 298•2511 . This involves a major change in the philosophy of the aid formula v��hi�h ii1 the process highly simplifies the formula. The c�st involves $3l. mill��n o.E caunty municipal aid funds now being distributed. In aggregate, the $31 million in municipal aids taken away from the county are more �han offset by about $100 million in tax relief to the counties that would be delivered . by the welfare financing �akeover bill. The four or five counties that would lose in this trade-off are held harmless by a grandfather provision in the local aid bill. But the method of financing is noi the essence of this bill. The e�isting aid formul� distributes money in a complex way. Appropriated money goes into 83 s�parate pots on a per capita basis . One po� is made up of the seven metro courities. The other 82 pots are for the counties outside the seven county metro area. Money from each of these pots is subfiracted for the counties in a complex way �ci�a't's tiic: $3i �uiiliu,e un a statev,iiva b�;is). . Th�r, each of the pot.; �s distrIUuted on the basis of the municipal spending among the communities in cach pot . � , NpCll 7, 1�l5 � • �. . 3 H As an example, if St. P�ul's budc�et is 15 per cent of the money spent by all municipalities in the seven county pot, St. Paul would get 15 per cent of the pat. Outside the metro area, each county gets $36 per capita in its pot. That money is distributed on the basis of spending just like in the metro area . The amount of effort in individual communities is not considered in this formula . • . . �What happens is t;�at communities who levy about the same amount get aboat th� same �-;:ount o� aid (although some grandfather provisions throw that off soms), regardless of the mill rate in the community. For example; ' Edina levied a$2 . 2 million budget in 1974 on a 6. Z mill levy and got $843,137 in local aids. ' �Ricnfield levied about $2 .? mill�on on a 13 . 9 mill levy and got $8�3 , 369 in aids . . • . Austin levied $2.4 mi�lion on � 35.1 l�vy and got $918,030 in aids. Under this bill (with the $31 million in aids added) Edina would r�main afi $843,137 in aids; Richfield would go to $1,193, 704 in aids; and Austin would ga to $1, 664, 612 in aids . � �• � Thus, the community that levied the highest gets the most aid. Thfs bill creates one pot and each community gets from the pot the pro- ' � pnrtion its population times equalized mill rate bears to the statewide p� ulation P times mill rate. • • 1lnother exaa�ap,G �r� two o�:tstate communities: � ' • ' ,�� Senator Colemzn - Page Tflree April 7, 1975 Moorhead raises $1,025,803 on a 16.6 levy and gets $948,423 in aids. Wi�nona raises $1,59Z,351. on 26.6 mills and gets $II46,883 in aids. 3I Winona gets less, although it has a population of 26,43II to Moorhead's 9, 687 ari�d levies $544, 000 more. Under th is bill, Moorhead's aids would remain at $9�8, 423 and Winona's would increase to $I,272,J60. Tn essence, the formula of this bill is to help out communities on the basis of taxing effort. �'he gainers �r�?ll be cor^mur�ities �yhose mill rate is high. Communities who have a high tax base and thus demand minimal tax e�fort from their property will be grar.dfathered in at the 1975 aid level. As an aside, it should be noted that our Iook at fihe gross earnings package on local aids indicated that many of the low mill �rafie communities get substantial.ly more aid under that plan to move even farther away from a need or burden concept . e ' Ons of the arguments that has been mentioned is that this concepfi is an incenfiive to local spending -- the more you spend the more aid you get. �� This argumenfi is rather weak. First o� all, the levy limits do limit ' spending, and there is no indication that many municipalities are in the position t L_� to hold spending below the 6 per cent a year autharized by the levy limits. Secondly, the Legislature controls the amoun� of money in the local aid pot and the aid received by any community depends on the spending patterns in the whole state. �n�? thirdly� even tvi*.?: *t,A t��:,t �;� �.,ef;tG, a�ded spendin� �rill ��ise � taxes in communities. 0 ' 'i 1 MEMO T0: Nasim M. Qureshi, City Manager MEMO FROM: Richard N. Sobiech, Public �Vorks Director DATE: SUBJECT: April 11, 1975 House File 754; Development of Islands of Peace Park Please be advised that the bill which would �� a�ppropriate monies for the development of recreational facilities for the handicapped at the Islands of Peace Park (H.F. 754) was unanimously passed through the , Recreational and Open Space Subcommittee on April 7, 1975. This subcommittee expressed their concern for the long term committed use of the property for the , • handicapped for recreational purposes. It was suggested , that in order for the bill to have favorable consideration at the hearing of the Environmental and Natural Resources Committee, tentatively scheduled for April 15th, the City � of Fridley should provide a more substantial comrnitment of the use of the property for the handicapped. � Tt is suggested that two methods could be employed to provide this commitment: a) A substantial extension of the terms of the existing lease agreement with the Foundation for the Islands of Peace for the City controlled properties. '�, ' b) A letter in which the City of Fridley would state � their commitment of the property for recreational use for the handicapped persons. ' � ' ' ' 1 Both methods mentioned abave should be with the condition that the bill would.be passed through the Legislature. It is suggested that the Council consider this commitment at the Council hleeting of April 14, 1975 which would ensure a more favorable consideration of the bill. RNS/ jm � 4 _ _ _ , � . � . . .

Nee� Publish: Fridley Sun on ' , , � T0: FROM: CITY OF FRIDLEY MEMORANDUM NASIM M. QURESHI, CITY MANAGER MARVIN C. BRUNSELL, ASST. CITY MGR./FIN. DIR. ' SUBJECT: HOUSE FILE 1159 - MUNICIPAL UTILITIES, PAST DUE ACCOUN7S DATE: APRIL 8, 1975 � House File 1159 would limit the amount of penalty that could be charged on utility bills, and would also preclude adding delinquent pub1ic utility bills to tax rolls for collection. I am most concerned with the section of the proposed bill relating to not being able to add past due accounts to the tax rolls for collection (not withstanding the complaint received at last Monday's Council meeting}. This has been a most effective means of collecting past due bills. The City's losses on past due accounts are almost non existant. The other methods that can be used to�help collect past due accounts, shutting water off, or taking the customer to court, are not entirely satisfactory. Shutting water off costs a lot of money (finding shut off valve, sending men out to shut off, etc.) Some accounts, such as apart- ments, obviously cannot be shut off. There is also a legal question on shut offs. Taking the customer to court is not always the answer either. Even though the City spends the time and money to take a customer to court and the customer is ordered to pay, the City still does not have its money. (The previous owner mentioned at last Monday's meeting, had been taken to court and had been ordered by the court to pay, but the City still does not have the money). It still takes additiona1 legal steps to collect the money. The City must get the Concilliation Court transcript transfered to District Court, get an execution order then have the Sheriffs Department locate the 7ndividual and serve them. All of this plus the legal and administration costs will be more than the $78.00 owing on the bill. � Al1 of the extra expense noted above, plus the actual money lost on accounts not paid, will have to be made up by customers who pay their bills. I recommend the City give serious consideration to going on record as being opposed to House File 1159.
