APPROVAL OF MINUTES Commissioner Braam MOVED and Commissioner Flickinger seconded a motion approving the Charter Commission meeting minutes of May 5, 2014. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE CHAIRPERSON REYNOLDS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED. ADMINISTRATIVE MATTERS Ms. Skogen said that she had just prepared a new letter to the Chief Judge requesting the reappointment and appointments for Marion Flickinger and Ted Kranz and the appointment of Manuel Granroos and David Ostwald because she had not heard from the judge to try to get the process moving again. City Manager Wally Wysopal and Intern Moranda Zimmer were introduced to the Commission. NEW BUSINESS A. Discussion of Chapter 7 Taxation and Finances Vice Chairperson Reynolds opened the discussion on Chapter 7. Mr. Wysopal said the issue before them this evening was because the City Council wanted to see the Charter Commission address an issue that was brought forth by the League of Minnesota Cities. because th the date of the levy certification had changed from September 15 to September 30. Ms. Zimmer said the main reason for the legislative change was the state not having the information available on fiscal disparities until September. The levy change now makes it consistent with county and school districts as well. CHARTER COMMISSION MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 2, 2014 PAGE 2 Vice Chairperson Reynolds wondered if she understood fiscal disparities correction that about 40% of the industrial commercial taxes was pooled and provided to communities that had mostly residential properties. Mr. Wysopal said she was correct. He said the program started about 40 years ago with legislation called the Minnesota Miracle. This legislation was to help communities without commercial and industrial properties receive funding from other communities to help fund their services. He said 40% of new industrial/commercial growth does go into a pool which is then distributed based on needs. He said for years the City of Fridley had contributed to fiscal disparities, however, times have changed and the City is now receiving fiscal disparities funding due to the value of the new commercial/industrial growth happening in the southwest communities like Minnetonka, Bloomington and Eden Prairie. He said there is a pool of approximately $400,000 that will be distributed back, but the City does not know how much it will receive until after it is forecast by the state in mid September. He said the City was constrained by how much it could levy, due to the levy limit, but the fiscal disparities will help bring in additional revenue. Ms. Reynolds wondered if commercial was higher if the businesses would see a change or stay the same in Mr. Wysopal said he did not know how fiscal disparities would impact the budget at this time. The only thing he knew was the tax levy would increase by 1.9% for 2015, which is the figure they knew back in February. He said the biggest reason he saw the need for a change was that requiring the budget to be presented in August would not provide a full picture of how it might impact homeowners as they would not have the full financial picture available to them until September. His would like to have the ability to present the whole picture, budget and levy, to the public at one time. Commissioner Granroos wondered if Medtronic, by moving their corporate headquarters outside of the United States, would affect the City. Mr. Wysopal said that would only affect income taxes and not property taxes, so it would not have an impact on the City. Mr. Wysopal thought it would be good for the Charter Commission to deliberate on language and come back with a recommendation so the issue could be resolved before next year. The Commissioners began discussing language but were concerned about requiring it to be the second th meeting in September because that meeting could fall on September 30, which would be too late. If they did that they would have to include language about calling a special meeting and the Commissioners all decided that was not a good idea. Vice Chairperson Reynolds said she did not want say in accordance with state law but wondered what would happen if the legislature made another change in a year or two. Ms. Skogen reviewed Section 7.09, pertaining to the tax levy, and said that language did not need to be Sections 7.04 and 7.05 and put in similar language or other language they felt was better. After further discussion it was determined the following changes would be recommended: at its last regular monthly meeting in August in accordance with Minnesota state law, and shall be published twice in summary in the the last regular monthly meeting of the Council in August a regular meeting in September, and the Council shall hold subsequent CHARTER COMMISSION MEETING OF SEPTEMBER 2, 2014 PAGE 3 Mr. Wysopal said the changes would be very workable and could be used when determining the dates for the next fiscal year and thanked the commissioners for their time and consideration. He said it may seem small but it is important. Staff will draft and ordinance with the recommended changes and provide them to the Commission for their October meeting to review. Vice Chairperson Reynolds recommended the commissioners all review Sections 7.06 through 7.08 as well prior to the next meeting. B. Discussion of Chapter 1 Vice Chairperson Reynolds opened the discussion. The Commissioners briefly discussed why this was back up for discussion. It was understood that Chairperson Nelson asked to have Chapters 1, 6 and 10 brought up for review at the last meeting in May. Commissioner Flicking MOVED and Commissioner Ollawore seconded a motion tabling the discussion of Chapters 1, 6 and 10 until the next meeting in October. UPON A VOICE VOTE, ALL VOTING AYE, VICE CHAIRPERSON REYNOLDS DECLARED THE MOTION CARRIED.

This shall not be construed as a guaranty of a return and in no case shall there be any return upon franchise value. Within these limits the determination of maximum rates, fares, or charges to be charged by any public utility or franchisee for service rendered to the City or any person, persons, firm or corporation within the City, shall be made, if possible, by direct negotiations between the public utility or franchisee and the Council.

(Ref. Ord. 625) Section 10.07. FURTHER PROVISIONS OF FRANCHISES. The enumeration and specification or particular matters which must be provided for in every franchise or renewal or extension thereof shall not be construed as impairing the right of the City to insert in any such franchise or renewal or extension thereof such other and further conditions and restrictions as the Council may deem proper to protect the City's interests, nor shall anything contained in this Charter limit any right or power possessed by the City over existing franchises. Section 10.08. RENEWALS OR EXTENSION OF FRANCHISES.
