The applicant and business also failed to meet the massage therapy business license conditions. She provided information on the license condition related to a front-facing entrance and recommended denial of the individual and business massage therapy applications. Li Liu, applicant, stated that she has a few questions, and her friend Michael will be representing her. Michael Mick stated that they had some concerns with the denial process, noting that they did not receive a call or email about the inspection. He stated that they do have the keys and would have opened the facility for inspection. He noted that the door was locked as the business was closed. He stated that they would not be using the rear-facing door and would be using the front entrance. He stated that Ms. Liu is an outstanding citizen and any community would welcome her. He stated that she would contribute to the community, providing an example of food shelf donations. Ms. Liu asked that the Council approve the license and stated that she would be willing to contribute a portion of her business revenue to support those less fortunate in the community. 7 Jufn!2/ City Council Meeting 6/23/2025 Minutes Page 4 Councilmember Bolkcom Shop, which is not a separate entrance. Mr. Mick commented that the spa would be in the back, so people would walk through the store. Councilmember Bolkcom commented that the regulations require a separate entrance for massage businesses. Mr. Mick replied that they could not do that as it would require a reconfiguration three years. Mayor Ostwald asked if that would meet the requirements of City Code, to walk through the Sport Shop. Ms. Moore commented that the business would have to have a separate, distinct, front-facing entrance to meet the requirements of City Code. Councilmember Bolkcom referenced the previous business that existed and asked if that business operated with customers walking through the Sport Shop. Ms. Moore commented that, to her knowledge, the previous business utilized the Sport Shop entrance and the back entrance. Mr. Mick commented that they do not understand why a separate front entrance is required and why some businesses are allowed to operate in that same manner. He asked if they could call the business Ms. Moore commented that license and employ licensed therapists, that would be acceptable. Councilmember Bolkcom reiterated that Ms. Liu would not be the business owner in that scenario, but would then be an employee of Councilmember Vescio noted that the applicant referenced another business that is allowed to operate without a separate front door entrance and asked the name of that business. Mr. Mick was unsure of the name of that business but noted that there is another business within a few blocks of this location. Ms. Kondrick commented that she assumes that is Salon Amore, which is a similar situation to Lifetime. Mayor Ostwald asked if there would be a one-year waiting period if the application were denied or iness owner be able to strike one-year waiting period for Ms. Liu, apply, that would be a separate application and review. Councilmember Cardona recalled that a license was revoked for a massage therapy license earlier this year and asked for clarification. Ms. Kondrick replied that the license that was revoked was revoked in late March or early April, and this application was received in May. Councilmember Cardona asked how the applicant became aware that the business location was vacant. Mr. Mick replied that Ms. Liu is friends with the previous owner but did not want to have any negative connotation associated with that friendship and the acts of the previous business. Councilmember Bolkcom stated that there is a regulation that must be required, and the denial would not be related to that relationship. 8 Jufn!2/ City Council Meeting 6/23/2025 Minutes Page 5 Mayor Ostwald asked if the applicant could retract their application to avoid the one-year waiting period. Sarah Sonsalla, City Attorney, agreed that it would be better for the applicant to withdraw her application rather than receive a denial to avoid the waiting period. Ms. Liu asked for a copy of the building and City Code to ensure they can meet all requirements. She requested to withdraw her application. Ms. Sonsalla stated that the applicant has withdrawn the application and requested that Ms. Liu follow up with an email confirming that she has withdrawn her application and no action of the Council is needed. Ms. Moore commented that she would also email the applicant links to the City Code to review as requested. 16. Resolution No. 2025-77, Revoking the On-Sale Liquor License Issued to Debesay Girmalul for Continental Restaurant, 1040 Osborn Road Mayor Ostwald asked the City Attorney to make a statement. Ms. Sonsalla stated that this item is to consider the revocation of an intoxicating liquor license pursuant to Minnesota Statute, Section 348.415, which requires the hearing that is being conducted tonight. She stated that the staff report includes documents that are part of the hearing. She described the process that would be followed for the hearing. Ms. Kondrick presented a resolution for the Council to consider, which would revoke the on-sale liquor license for Debesay Girmalul for Continental Restaurant at 1040 Osborne Road. She reviewed a timeline of events beginning with the on-sale liquor license application in 2024 and concerns that arose before renewals in 2025. She stated that the license was renewed in April of 2025. AGED agents completed their own investigation in May of 2025. After completion of the investigations, public safety and City staff determined several violations of the City Code and State Code, presenting those violations. She stated that City staff were not made aware of the State investigation and results prior to renewing the liquor license for 2025. Staff recommend approval of Resolution 2025-77 revoking the liquor license. Michael Cain and Debesay Girmalul approached the podium, explaining that Mr. Cain is representing Mr. Girmalul and the Continental Restaurant in this matter. He asked for clarification on what the record consists of. He stated objected to any information obtained against the business prior to the 2025 license renewal. He stated that the 2025 license was approved and believed that any evidence st prior to May 1 should be inadmissible. He stated that 1040 Osborne Road consists of three separate entities, including the Continental Restaurant, Pilgrim Events Center, and Fridley Private Members thth, Association. He commented that Mr. Girmalul was married on May 9 and 10 and the Continental Restaurant was closed that weekend. The event center was used for the wedding and wedding celebration, and there was no liquor sold or served by the Continental that weekend. The alcohol that was used for the events was brought by the patrons. He explained that Mr. Girmalul is of Ethiopian descent and that type of wedding includes a traditional wine that is made by members of the community. He admitted that was not purchased by a wholesale operation, but it also was not served by Continental Restaurant. He stated that there was a different type of liquor, which is professionally 9 Jufn!2/ City Council Meeting 6/23/2025 Minutes Page 6 made and bottled but not made in Minnesota,that was found at the space,but also was used for the wedding and not for sale by the Continental. He did not deny that there were individuals given that liquor a day or two before the wedding, but stated that liquor was not for sale and consumption by the restaurant and was intended for the wedding. He explained that because they could not receive a delivery in a timely manner, they purchased beer and liquor from Total Wine. He stated that they were working with the Fridley American Legion to comply with the local and State laws related to bingo. He commented that the supplies were purchased in anticipation of the proper licensing. He provided materials showing they were exploring bingo with the American Legion. He also provided materials showing the declaration of the Council for the license to run through 2 a.m., and with a lawful gambling endorsement. He asked that the Council impose a fine and suspension rather than revocation. He asked that the Council accept the documents into the record. Motion made by Councilmember Evanson to accept the three documents provided by Mr. Cain into the record. Seconded by Councilmember Cardona. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Ostwald declared the motion carried unanimously. Mayor Ostwald commented that there are many violations related to alcohol and gambling, along with local violations about tobacco and alcohol. He asked public safety to provide additional information. Ryan George, Public Safety Director, stated that they are required to conduct two alcohol compliance checks each year on every business that sells alcohol in Fridley. Continental was the only business to fail, noting that the underage patron was 16 and presented their ID, which stated that they were 16. He stated that the State also conducts random compliance checks, including checking records to ensure that alcohol is purchased from a wholesaler and not a retail business. Mayor Ostwald asked when the State notified them that they were doing an investigation. Mr. George commented that he was made aware after the license renewal period. Councilmember Evanson stated that the options to consider and asked if those options exist. Ms. Kondrick commented that the Council would have the authority to fine and suspend as well. Ms. Sonsalla stated that if a different option is chosen, she would suggest that the Council direct staff to prepare those documents to present at a future meeting. Councilmember Evanson asked for more details on a potential suspension period and whether that could be extended or deviation could occur if that option is chosen. Ms. Sonsalla stated that the Council would need to align with the City Code on a period of suspension and noted that she would quickly investigate that information. Councilmember Cardona acknowledged the statement that was made that the bingo supplies were purchased in anticipation of a potential license being obtained. He noted that the business website states that bingo is held from 6 to 10 p.m. on Mondays each week. Mr. Girmalul stated that they have not operated bingo at the site, noting that information was added to the website once the agreement : Jufn!2/ City Council Meeting 6/23/2025 Minutes Page 7 was signed with the American Legion. He stated that the supplies were never taken out of the office, and the game was never played. Councilmember Bolkcom stated that as far as she knows, the only organization that can run bingo is a nonprofit. She asked if there was a conversation with City staff about bingo. She asked if the Legion would be hosting bingo at this location. Mr. Cain explained that Mr. Girmalul would be partnering with the nonprofit, the American Legion, which would then come to the facility to run bingo and keep would bring additional patrons to his business who may then purchase food or drink. Mr. Cain asked if it is true that a for-profit business can partner with a nonprofit to operate bingo or pull tabs. Mayor Ostwald commented that the nonprofit must be within Fridley. Councilmember Bolkcom asked if the applicant had purchased the bingo supplies in anticipation of having bingo with the American Legion. Mr. Girmalul replied that they did not start bingo. Mr. Cain commented that the picture shows the packaged bingo cards and daubers, but there was no number spinner found. Councilmember Bolkcom asked why the supplies were purchased before there was an agreement for bingo. Mr. Girmalul replied that they are marketing the business to grow, and they wanted to be ready for bingo when it is available. Councilmember Bolkcom stated that she does not understand the confusion, and it is concerning to her that a business owner has multiple activities that are not legal. She stated that the business was purchasing alcohol from other sources and has a long list of things they did wrong when other businesses follow the rules. She stated that these things did not all happen in one month, and they had to know that these things were not right. Mr. Girmalul stated that the alcohol that was homemade is their traditional drink. He acknowledged that was a mistake, but did not know that was not allowed for his event. He commented that alcohol was related to the events of his wedding weekend. Councilmember Bolcom commented that there have been other incidents when the rules were not followed. Mr. Cain confirmed that there were mistakes made, and they are taking accountability for that. He stated that, in regard to the December incident, they believe their license is valid through 2 a.m. and therefore they were operating in those confines. He noted that other communities have a list of offenses that do not revoke a license after a first offense. Councilmember Bolkcom commented that this was not just one offense, but instead a combination of offenses over a period of time. Councilmember Vescio stated that state identification is used for the decoy compliance checks and asked how a bartender would not recognize a state ID and serve alcohol. Mr. Cain commented that there is no justification for the failure, and they instead admitted that and explained how it would be remedied. Councilmember Vescio stated that it was mentioned that there were three businesses within the location, which are the restaurant, banquet hall, and hookah lounge. He asked if those businesses require separate licensing. Ms. Kondrick replied that the license is for the Continental Restaurant, and the other entities were not part of the floor plan when the license was received. 21 Jufn!2/ City Council Meeting 6/23/2025 Minutes Page 8 Councilmember Vescio referenced the liquor that is not wholesaled from Minnesota, which was on the shelf with other liquor, including Kirkland Irish cream liquor. He stated that liquor should not have been on the premises. He recognized the statement that the business was closed during the wedding events, but this alcohol was found on the premises during business hours. Mr. Cain clarified that was not part of the wedding but part of a separate event. He stated that they admit to that and do not want to muddy the facts. He stated that the traditional Ethiopian drinks were part of the wedding, but the beer and Baileys were not part of the wedding and were a mistake of the Continental Restaurant, explaining that the restaurant was trying to meet the needs of an event and acknowledged that was a mistake. Councilmember Cardona commented that they aim to have trust with their businesses in Fridley, and he supports cultural establishments within the community. He stated that this does not feel like a first-time offense because there are so many things that add up. He stated that there also does not seem to be trust, as the business's Facebook page also advertises bingo each week. He stated that does not help him build trust as they claim they have never played bingo, but the business repeatedly advertises for bingo. Councilmember Vescio stated that the information provided for the gambling license is not any evidence of an agreement or moving forward, but is a business card and information on how a gambling license could be obtained. He noted that anyone could print that information. Mr. Cain commented that he would like the Council to consider that is evidence that they were attempting to go about bingo in the right way. Councilmember Bolkcom referenced the unruly activity that was documented in December and asked public safety if there were other calls they responded to related to similar activity or when the business was open past the allowed time. Chief George replied that there were no other incidents of that nature to his knowledge. Councilmember Evanson referenced City Code related to a potential suspension of the license and asked if that information was correct. Ms. Sonsalla referenced the section of City Code relating to this type of suspension and provided additional details. Ms. Moore clarified that a suspension shall not exceed 60 days. Councilmember Bolkcom asked and received confirmation that a suspension could be up to 60 days and asked if stipulations could be added to the suspension. Ms. Sonsalla confirmed that stipulations could be added and commented that she would want the applicant to also agree to the stipulations. Councilmember Bolkcom commented that there has been a huge failure on the staff and the business related to following the rules. She commented that the rules must be followed, and the business must plan ahead for events. She stated that if there is a suspension considered, she would want very specific rules listed to ensure the business follows those rules. Wally Wysopal, City Manager, commented that the Council should not be considering this as a first offense, noting that there was a violation within the past 12 months and continued violations that occurred after that. He asked the Council to consider the degree of violations that have taken place. 22 Jufn!2/ City Council Meeting 6/23/2025 Minutes Page 9 He stated that a fine was paid when the underage person was served,and multiple and more severe violations occurred after that time. He stated that this is the first time he is being made aware that there are three businesses. He stated that there is one business with a liquor license and asked if other businesses can be added to a liquor license without the knowledge of the City. Chief George commented that the database shows Continental Restaurant at 1040 Osborne Road as the sole licensee. He stated that a liquor licensee cannot sublease their license to anyone else. The liquor license holder is solely responsible for everything that occurs on the premises. He stated that when the hookah lounge was brought to the attention of staff, they reached out to the business to ask if there was a hookah lounge, and the business replied that there was not. Councilmember Evanson asked if the license was to be revoked, whether the business could still operate as food only. Mr. Kondrick confirmed that is accurate. Mr. Cain stated that State Statute allows the City to fine up to $2,000 per violation, suspend up to 60 days, and revoke. He stated that they are not attempting to shift blame to anyone else or any other entities. He stated that they are being accountable and request leniency for the incidents that have occurred. Mayor Ostwald stated that there are multiple infractions that have taken place over a longer period of time. He stated that the goal of the Council is public safety of the residents and businesses. He stated that this is a diverse community, and they would love to see the business succeed, but ultimately, the owner has to be aware of the regulations and follow those regulations. He stated that there is a pile of five or six violations on the City and State levels. He asked legal counsel if all requirements of the hearing have been completed. Ms. Sonsalla replied that the City staff provided its presentation, the licensee had an opportunity to speak, and both parties were able to examine those making statements. She recognized that exhibits were submitted into the record, and if any other exhibits desire to be submitted, that should be done before the close of the hearing. She stated that the action before the Council is the resolution revoking the license, and if a different option is chosen, that should be done through direction to staff to be prepared and brought back for future consideration. Councilmember Evanson stated that his thoughts behind a potential suspension were that it would give the business owner time to review and understand the regulations of the license and business. He was unsure that the owner understood how to operate the liquor side of the business. He stated that when the license was issued, the applicant stated that they understood the requirements. He was unsure that 60 days would be enough time for the business owner to understand how to run the liquor side of the business. Motion made by Councilmember Evanson to approve Resolution No. 2025-77, Revoking the On-Sale Liquor License Issued to Debesay Girmalul for Continental Restaurant. Seconded by Councilmember Cardona. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Ostwald declared the motion carried unanimously. 23 Jufn!2/ City Council Meeting 6/23/2025 Minutes Page 10 17.Resolution No. 2025-82, Affirming the Planning Commission Determination Regarding an Accessory Dwelling Unit Permit for the Property Located at 6187 Heather Circle, Owned by Hamdi Barre Mayor Ostwald acknowledged that there is no one in the audience to represent the applicant. Nancy Abts, Senior Planner, stated that Ms. Barre provided an email expressing her regrets in not being able to attend and detailing her comments. She asked the Council to review the administrative actions taken thus far, request an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Permit, and consider a resolution She commented that there is minimal discretion for an ADU Permit. She stated that the appeal tonight is related to an application for an ADU Permit, which was denied.

She provided an overview of the hearing held by the Planning Commission on May 21. She reviewed the appeal arguments made by the applicant as submitted within the appeal and the related responses of City staff. Mayor Ostwald provided additional information on the action before the Council tonight. Councilmember Bolkcom referenced a statement from the applicant that they did not receive proper notification. She asked if information was sent to the homeowner following the Planning Commission meeting, as the homeowner did not attend the Commission meeting. Ms. Abts stated that Ms. Barre th received a copy of the written findings of fact, which were emailed on May 27. She stated that in the request for an appeal, Ms. Barre asked for an appeal at the first available Council meeting. She confirmed that staff provided as much request. confirmed that he also debriefed the resident on the Commission meeting results. Councilmember Cardona asked if sufficient notice was provided to the resident and whether a decision needs to be made tonight. Ms. Abts replied that staff notified Ms. Barre that the hearing th would take place at this meeting, and written notice was provided to Ms. Barre on June 18.

She explained that the process tonight is for the Council to consider the process and decision of the Planning Commission and would not allow for new information to be presented.

Councilmember Bolkcom asked what the next step would be for the resident if the Council upholds the decision of the Planning Commission. Ms. Abts replied that the permit would officially be denied through the City, and if the resident wished to continue the appeal, it would go through the court system. Ms. Sonsalla provided additional information on the continued appeal process. Councilmember Evanson asked how a denied ADU permit would be enforced. Mr. Wysopal asked that the Council complete the appeal process prior to asking additional questions such as that. Motion made by Councilmember Evanson to approve Resolution No. 2025-82, Affirming the Planning Commission Determination Regarding an Accessory Dwelling Unit Permit for the Property Located at 6187 Heather Circle, Owned by Hamdi Barre. Seconded by Councilmember Vescio. Upon a voice vote, all voting aye, Mayor Ostwald declared the motion carried unanimously. Ms. Abts stated that this is a unique situation and has been extensively talked about by staff. She stated that the City needs to ensure that the property is safe for the occupants, as there is significant documentation of unpermitted work that has occurred on the property. She stated they will request inspections to ensure the work that has been completed is safe. Councilmember Vescio asked if there is any additional information that Ms. Barre could present further into the appeal process, or whether any decision would be based on the record presented. Ms. Sonsalla confirmed that any appeal process would be based on the record and not new information. Councilmember Evanson echoed the comments about ensuring the safety of residents related to the work that has been completed.

He stated that he has received calls from multiple residents about this property. He asked staff to enforce the rules to minimize the disruption to other residents.

Ms. Abts stated that they have waited to pursue enforcement until the close of this hearing. She stated that now that the City process is complete, they plan to inspect the property. Councilmember Bolkcom asked if the Council would receive a copy of the inspection report. 18.

He appreciated the work of staff on the policy. Councilmember Evanson asked if the event attendance would be limited to events held on public property.

To obtain a Special Event Permit, an application must be submitted through the City’s online licensing and permitting application. Application Review Process Once a Special Event Permit application is submitted, it undergoes a comprehensive review process by the City, designed to support an event's success. Initial Review The review begins with an initial assessment of the application. The City Manager’s Office will check that all required documentation is present and properly completed. If any information is missing or needs clarification, the applicant will be contacted. This initial review helps identify any obvious concerns or requirements early in the process. Department Review The application then moves to a detailed departmental review. Different aspects of the event will be evaluated by relevant City departments including City Manager, Police, Fire, Public Works and Parks and Recreation. Each department brings specific expertise to ensure an event meets all safety and operational requirements. 42 Jufn!5/ For example: The City Manager’s Office reviews the permit application for completeness, compliance and routing to additional departments.

Communication Throughout this process, an applicant may receive requests for additional information or requirements for modifying plans. Ongoing communication is encouraged during this phase to address any questions or concerns quickly. Final Review and Approval The final step is overall review and determination.

Revocation and Denial of Permits The public’s health and safety are the City’s primary concern when evaluating a Special Event Permit application. Permits may be denied or revoked if the event poses a threat to public safety, violates the Code or other City policies, or if the applicant provides false or insufficient information. Applications showing insufficient plans for security, emergency response, or crowd management may be denied. Similarly, if an event would place an unreasonable burden on City services or conflict with previously scheduled events, the permit may be denied. Even after a permit is approved, certain circumstances may require the City to revoke it. Serious violations of permit conditions or City requirements may result in immediate revocation. This includes: Exceeding approved attendance limits Failing to maintain required insurance coverage 49 Jufn!5/ Misrepresenting event activities Creating unsafe conditions Emergency situations affecting public safety. Fees Events often require support from various City departments to operate safely and successfully. Fees charged for these services dedicate the City’s staff or equipment resources to an event. Fees are billed based on actual costs to the City. Application and Late Fees Every special event begins with a non-refundable application fee of $100, which covers administrative processing costs. Applications submitted less than 90 days prior to the date of an event incur an additional $120 late fee and risk non-approval due to timing constraints. Applications submitted less than 30 days prior to the date of an event will be reviewed by the City Manager and may be denied. Security Deposits A security deposit is required to protect City property and ensure proper event cleanup. The deposit amount will be $500 or 20% of an event’s total City service costs, whichever is higher. Deposits will be returned after passing the post-event inspection, meeting all cleanup requirements and settling any final charges, provided no damage to City property is found.

In all cases, written notification of cancellation or major changes must be submitted to the City Clerk. Cancellation Cancellations of events by event organizers will receive a refund of event fees (excluding the application fee): 30 days prior to event will receive a full refund of event fees. 29 to 15 days prior to event will forfeit 50% of event fees. 14 days or less of the event will forfeit all event fees. Cancellations of events by the event organizer received in writing will receive full refund of security deposits. Changes Major changes to an approved event must receive additional approval from the City Manager or a designee before implementation.

The final segments are planned for 2025 construction. One segment of transmission piperuns within a CenterPoint Energy easement onthe western edge of Springbrook Nature Center (SNC) property abutting the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF)railroad. segmentin 2024 but due to the interference from the nearbyXcel Energy high voltage power lines, which exist in easements that were granted after CenterPoint established an easement in this area and the shallow groundwater prevented completion of this replacement. CenterPoint has exhausted feasible optionsfor replacing the gas in its current location. These included open trenching with shoring and modifying the SNC weir, both of which would have impacted wetlands, and would have been costly and risky to construct. CenterPoint Energy subsequentlyrequesteda new gas main easement within the SNC property, east of the eastern high voltage power lines, under the SNC pond. This gas main would be installed with a trenchless installation; the new main would be drilled wellbeneaththe pond(-). The new main would be installed with sufficient depth so that any future dredging of the water body would not be impacted. The staging location for the drill work would be in the vicinity ofthe southwestern most point of atrailand northwest of the pond. CenterPoint would install matting to be used as a temporary trail area during construction. The attached exhibits show the approximate location of the proposed easement on an aerial view of SNC. There would be some land disturbance and tree removals needed to gain access to the site, but the City of Fridley (City) has worked with CenterPoint Energy to minimize these impacts. The green spaces would be restored with the existing seed bedsasexcavations are backfilled. There are also many mixes of natural prairie grasses that are available and be used to overseed the area to retore it closely to preconstruction conditions. CenterPoint has done similar restorative actions in the Minnesota River Valley on US Fish andWildlife preserve land in 2015 and 2022 with success. Vision Statement We believe Fridley will be a safe, vibrant, friendly and stable home for families and businesses. 94 Jufn!23/ In normal circumstances, an easement such as this is located in a public Right-of-Way, which is generally impacted property, and established for such a purpose. CenterPoint Energy does have additional easements in and along City parkland elsewhere in the City. These types of easements are generally renumerated to the City, as grantee, via generally established estimates with a consideration for specific impacts. Due to the preserved nature of the Springbrook Nature Center property, the City has worked with CenterPoint Energy to 1) minimize the surface and shallow impacts to the existing property, as a water main crossing, floating boardwalk, and pond maintenance, and 3) due to the well-preserved natural stat of the SNC property, include additional funding for the easement. Staff negotiated a cost of $50,000 in exchange for the proposed easement. Language in the easement was also modified to provide additional preservation measures and assurances from CenterPoint Energy. Staff are therefore recommending approval of the attached agreement and the establishment of this easement. Financial Impact The agreement would provide additional funding to the City that is not included in the current budget. Terms of the agreement also avoid creating additional maintenance costs for the City. Recommendation Staff recommend the approval of Resolution No. 2025-87, Authorizing Execution of an Easement Agreement with CenterPoint Energy.

This project would include construction of a drinking water treatment plant addition to provide granular activated carbon (GAC) treatment. The project is in response to a Health Risk Advisory issued to the City of Fridley(City)by theMinnesota Department of Health in 2019 regarding the presence of Due to the risk to public health outlined in the advisory, the City immediately took the well out of service. Subsequently, staff has requested inclusion for the project in the Drinking Water Revolving Fund (DWRF) Intended Use Plan (IUP), which prioritizes eligible projects statewide (see attached). This request was approved and the project was prioritized in the IUP in late 2024. Due to the health risks associated with PFAS, also known as forever chemicals, the Locke Park project was determined to be eligible for application for DRWF loan funding. The DWRF offers low-interest loans for drinking water improvement projects at a discounted interest rate preferable to those typically obtained by issuing bonds. The project is also eligible for a New Emerging Contaminants program allowing loan forgiveness of up to $3 million per project, including those projects that address PFAS contamination. The proposed upgrade includes the addition of a GAC treatment building between the original water treatment plant building and the backwash tank, which was accommodated during a prior upgrade to add the backwash tank. The project is veryprotective of public health and will allow the City to have a new level of treatment at one of its three water treatment plants, which may be of additional benefit should additional contaminants emerge. The project has a projected construction cost of $6,632,000 and contemplates construction start planned for late 2025 through early 2027 if funded. Resolution 2025-25, passed by theCouncil in March, authorized staff to pursue and apply for a DWRF loan application. The application has been found to be complete so far and we are indicated as eligible for the $3 million in loan forgiveness for the project. The final element needed for our application is bid pricing. Vision Statement We believe Fridley will be a safe, vibrant, friendly and stable home for families and businesses. :1 Jufn!24/ Staff aretherefore requesting a call for bids for the Locke Park WTP GAC Treatment Addition Project No. 24-199. Bid letting will be scheduled for August, and if reasonable, the results will be submitted to our Public Facilities Authority loan agent to provide a final eligibility determination. Should these steps go favorably, staff would bring a recommendation of award to the Council in August or September. Financial Impact The project is included in the 2025-2029 Capital Investment Plan, and loan payments would be from the Water Utility Fund. Budgeted revenue projections for the water utility assume a 5% increase in water sales annually to support this as well as other capital project expenses, and a lower increase could support the project if the project is allocated loan forgiveness. Recommendation Staff recommend the approval of Resolution 2025-88, Authorizing a Call for Bids for the Locke Park WTP GAC Treatment Addition Project No. 24-199.
