F1ora,�Public Works Director DATE: October 11, 1998 SUBJECT: Well No. 12 Filtration The Council has shown an interest to filter the water of Well No. 12. They have requested information regarding the possibility of diverting Well No. 12 water to Locke Park and utilizing its excess capacity as an alternate for water production and cost economy. Well No. 12 can be filtered for iron and manganese removal, adding 2.2 MGD to our system at a cost of appxoximately $1.4 million. At this location filtered water could be directed into the intermediate zone or portioned into the low level zone as was necessary. The water from Well No. 12 can be diverted through a pipe line along 73rd Avenue to the Locke Park plant for a cost of approximately $800,000. Currently, the Locke Park plant filters Well Nos 10 and 11 and under maximum summer time production has a excess filtering capacity of approximately .7 MGD. Accordingly, only a portion of Well No. 12 total capacity of 2.2 MGD could be filtered at Locke Park. If Well No. 12 was diverted to Locke Park, one of the wells (10 or 11) would be non-productive as Well No. 12 would overload the system with one other well in operation. Accordingly, we would not achieve any major increase in water filtration. As an alternative to piping Well No. 12 to Locke Park, a glacial drift well (Well No. 14) could be constructed at the Locke Park site to maximize the plants operation at a cost of approximately $300,000. Well No. 14 would maximize the Locke Park filter plant at a minimum cost. It appears that DNR would not object to a glacial drift well addition to our system at this time. Request confirmation on what action the Council would desire regarding the filtering of Well No. 12 water: A. Diverting the well to Locke Paxk resulting in a slight increase in filtered water (0.7 MGD at $800,000) B. Constructing a sepazate filter at Well No. 12, increasing our filtered water (2.2 MGD at $1,400,000) C. Constructing Well No. 14 for additional filteYed water (0.7 MGD at $300,000).

F1ora,�Public Works Director DATE: October 5, 1995 SUBJECT: Nlunicipal Water Filtration PW95-281 ��� The Council has raised some interest in providing 100% iron and manganese filtered water to meet our maximum summer production demands. In this light, we have had Maier Stewart & Associates (MSA) review the cost for piping well No. 12 to the Locke Park filter plant, installing new filters at well Nos. 12, 1 and 13 as well as remediating the TCE contamination of well Nos. 6, 7, 8 and 9. In the past, with firms such as QUEBECOR and FMC in full operation, we have experienced a summer demand up to 16 million gallons per day. Currently, the most recent experience during a warm weather period, without the large water users within the City, we are now in the vicinity of 13 million gallons per day. In reviewing the capabilities of water production from our 13 wells, in an optimistic view, it appears that we can only achieve 100% iron and manganese removal during our peak summer demand by treating wells 6, 7, 8 and 9 or by individually filtering well No's 12, 1 and 13. The attached sheet summarizes the filtering capacities of the various options and lists the costs associated with those improvements. In addition, I have added the summary of Tom Roushar's analysis of the well No. 12 pipe line to Locke Park. If you desire any additional information regarding this issue, please let me know.

Flora,'Public Works Director DATE: September 13, 1995 5UBJECT: Well No. 12 I have requested Tom Roushar from Maier 5tewart & Associates (MSA) to provide us information regarding the cost to connect Well No. 12 raw water to the Locke Park filter plant. MSA's estimated cost to construct this line is $800,000. While this is less than the cost to construct a filter plant at well house No. 12, his response indicates that the use of the Locke Park filter pla�t for Well No. 12 will reduce the overall capability of providing 100% filtered water for the summer demand His report indicates that there are some options of mixing the filtering pracess of wells No. 10, 11 and 12 at Locke Park but in each scenario there is always residual iron and manganese in the effluent. Accordingly, if the Council desires to provide 100% iron and manganese filtration, the most economical solution is to install a filter at the Well No. 12 well house.

That study concluded that the estimated capital cost of an ir`on and manganese filtration plant for Well No. 12 would be $1,364,000. This letter will discuss the feasibility of filtering Well No. 12 at the Locke Pazk Water Treatinent Plant (WTP) in lieu of constructing an independent water treatment plant for Well No. 12. ava �c,r,eea,r,c: The Locke Park WTP contains two (2) pressure filters, each with a nominal capacity of ermROr�,Er�r,u 1,000 gpm. Therefore, the nominal capacity of the Locke Park WTP is 2,000 gpm. The Mu�nava� Locke Park WTP filters the water from Wells No. 10 and ? 1. When pumped concurrentiy mar,►�r,c during periods of heavy demand, these wells have a combined capacity of approximately sou�wnsre 1,500 gpm. Because the Locke Park WTP b.as a nominal capacity of 2,000 gpm, it can be srnuc�uw� concluded that it cuirendy has 500 gpm of "excess" �capacity. SURVEYING TRAfFK TRANSPORTATION c�ctRKnv�cwv�ica� �cir�aiNC: HVAC POWER DISTRIBUMNJ SG4DA Well No. 12 has a capacity of approximately 1,500 gpm. If Wells No. 10, 11, aad 12 were all pumped concurrently into the filters at the Locke Park WTP, the combimed pumping rate would be approximatsly 3,000 gpm. This rate is 50% greater than the nominal capacity of the filters. Although the filters are physically capable of passing 3,000 gpm, it is my opinion that filtration efficiency at this higher filtration rate would be much reduced. Therefore, the iron and manganese concentrations in the filtered water would be higher than the filters are currendy producing. Also, the filter iuns would be very short. SYSiEM COMROLS Another operating scenario for the Locke park WTP comes to mind, however. To explain this scenario, the iron and manganese concentrations in Wells No. 10, 11, and 12 must first be examined. These concentrations are as follows: OFFICES IN: MINNEAPOUS PRIOR IAKE ST. PAUL Well No• 10 11 12 EPA Secondary Standard Concentration. ppm r�i Manganesel 1.60 0.51 0.65 0.12 0.52 0.88 0.30 0.05 ' A primary standard of 0.20 ppm may be adopted. wasKn - . , �' 1 / i . . ;� Mr. John G. Flora September 13, 1995 Page Two ' � � Y From the tabularion presented above, it can be concluded that the water from Well No. 11 has a much lower combined iron and manganese concentration than either of the other two wells. - - Because Well No. 11 has higher quality water, the following operating scenario could be implemented: � Average Da,y Conditions � Filter two of the wells (Wells No. 10 and 11, Wells 10 and 12, etc.). Don't pump the other well. Maximum DaY Conditions � Filter Wells No. 10 and 12. Pump We11 �No. 11 unfiltered into the system.

If the operating scenario outlined above is implemented (filter Wells No. 10 and 12, Well No. 11 unfiltered), I anticipate the following iron and manganese concentrations under maximum day conditions: .

Mr. John G. Flora September 13, 1995 Page Three By comparing the weighted averages for the current condition and the potential operating • scenario, it can be determined that there would be a modest reduction in iron concentration and a significant reduction (75 %) in mangane'se concentration. However, the•recommended secondary standards for iron and manganese would still not be met. The drawback to the potential operating scenario is the construction cost of the required raw water line between Well No. 12 and the Locke Park WTP. Over 8,000 linear feet of 16-inch diameter raw water line would be required. Considering the cost of piping modifications at the Well No. 12 wellhouse and the Locke Park WTP, a jacked crossing of MTH 65, and the water line constiuction itself, it is reasonable to expect a total capital cost of $800,000. � The operating scenario outlined above could also be achieved by drilling aa additional well (Well No. 14) at the Locke Pazk WTP. Because the additional well could be drilled and piped into the water plant for a small fraction (25 °Jo) of $800,000, piping Well No. 12 ta � the Locke Park WTP for treatrnent is not cost-effective. This statement, of course, assumes that the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MnDNR) allows the City of Fridley. to drill an additional well. This may be achievable if Well No. 14 is drilled as a drift aquifer well. - � If a water treatment plant is constcucted at Well No. 12, the iron and manganese concentrations in the plant effluent will be reduced to the same low levels that the Locke Park WTP produces. A.n alternative to a water plant at Well No. 12 would be to pipe Well No. 12 to the Locke park WTP and expand the Locke Park WTP. Although the water plant construction would be cheaper under this alternative, the savings would not offset the high cost ($800,000) of the raw water line. Therefore, this altemative is not cost-effective, either. If you have any questions regarding this submittal, please feel free to call. Sincerely, MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS �- Thomas A. Roushar, P.E.

Flora D'uector of Public Works Civic Center 6431 University Avenue NE Fridley, MN 55432 RE: WATER TREATMENT STUDY Dear Mr. Flora: Enclosed are ten copies of the final report. 1VISA truly appreciates this opportunity to have assisted the City of Fridley with the completion of this study. During review of the report with the City Council, one important point needs to be made. The point is that the volume of filtered water that can be produced by the Locke Park and Commons Park WTPs is based on the individual capacities of Wells 2, 4, 5, 10, and 11 with pumps in good condition. 1'he reality of the matter is that Wells 2, 4, and 5 produce less than 2,400 gpm when operating together. Similarly, Wells 10 and 11 do not produce a combined 2,000 gpm even though their individual capacities tota12,000 gpm. As the well pumps wear between repairs, their capacity also drops off. If you have any questions regarding the report or this letter, please feel free to call. Sincerely, MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS \�\ �� . Thomas A. Roushar, P.E.

Flora., Public Works Director DATE: October 11, 1995 SUBJECT: Stonybrook Creek PW95-285 We have received notice that the Spring Lake Park City Council is willing to contribute $50,000 to the 5tonybrook Creek improvement project. They have also requested that the City provide them a statement that there would be no future assessments for Stonybrook Creek improvements and that the cost of the project be assessed over the sub-watershed by the WMO, with the understanding that they would provide their $50,000 when the project was awarded. We have also received a petition from 11 of the 18 properties on Stonybrook Creek supporting the 3/4 pipe (pipe through the first five properties and open protected ditch through the last three) and supporting a$2,000 assessment per property for the improvement. Associated with the Stonybrook Creek 3/4 pipe is the use of fill material from Locke Lake to restore the erosion and five properties in which the pipe is installed. As winter would be the best time to remove the material from Locke Lake and because of low flows would lend itself to a pipe installation project on Stonybrook Creek, the City needs to decide if this project is to be implemented this year or during the winter of 1996 /1997. The attached cost analysis identifies a$260,000 project with a City of Fridley contribution of $75,000, a special assessment of $36,000 to the 18 homes, an ad valorem assessment of $100,000 in Fridley and $50,000 in Spring Lake Park. If the project was to be initiated this i� . -..�. , October 11, 1995 Page 2 year, the City of Fridley would be required to up-front their $210,000 portion of the project. These funds would have to be borrowed from one of the other City funds. Restitution would be made over whatever peiiod of time the assessment project is decided upon. Based upon this information and the Council's past interest in completing this project, we need to determine whether or not a final design should be initiated and a contract awarded this winter.

CONFERENCE MEETIl�TG - FIRE TRAINING TOWER OCTOBER 11, 1995 In reference to subject meeting on October 16, we'd like to present a short VHS tape on the fire training tower manufactured by Wesco. We have visited their installation at Waterloo, Iowa and aze impressed by the design and durability of the structure. Our purpose in reviewing this subject is to identify any concerns with the appearance of a metal sided structure. In the past, we rejected this type of construction because they used corrugated steel siding. Wesco's building used galvaneal horizontal siding which offers the same appearance as a house. Howie Simonson has seen the Waterloo facility and will be available to answer Council's questions. � City of Fridley � Recreation & Natural Resource Department 6431 Universiry Avenue NE, Fridley, Minnesota. 55432 Phone # 612-572-3570 Fax # 612-571-1287 October 12, 1995 TO FROM: � William W. Burns � City Manager Jack Kirk � Director ISSUES REGARDING A COMMUNITY CENTER FACILITY There are a number of issues that should be addressed regarding a community center facility for the City of Fridley. I have tried to identify several of these that Council may want to discuss at the conference meeting planned for Monday, October 16th. I believe it's important that we identify the philosophy behind providing a community center in our community. Specifically, what purpose will a community center serve in Fridley? Community centers in other suburbs all seem to have their own service philosophy. For example, I've noticed a difference in the new community centers in the cities of Maplewood and New Brighton. Maplewood provides a community center which is more like a health club and New Brighton seems to be more service oriented with early childhood programs, a teen drop-in center and a(soon to be included) senior citizens center. What goes in the facility and how it would be operated is very dependent upon having this question answered. Also, the amount of fees and charges revenue generated by the center is directly related to the type of facilities included. We may need to see the community survey results to get a better understanding of what the community expects and wants out of a community facility. 2. City Council has asked staff to conduct a survey to determine interest in a community center facility. We have drafted a sample citizens survey and it would be helpful at this point to get input from the City Council as to additions andlor changes to this sample survey. We also need to know if this should be a separate survey or if it should be combined with the overall citizens survey that we conduct every couple of years in this city. The consultant strongly recommends that both surveys be combined into one. We also should have the Council discuss whether this should be a telephone survey or a mail survey. At our last meeting, you and I seemed to be in ageement that we combine the citizens survey and community center survey, and conduct it by phone. 3. Council has asked us to examine funding possibilities for a community activity center. Most recent facilities such as those in New Brighton and Maplewood have used fund balances to build these facilities. At Monday's meeting, I hope to have some more information on the percent of operating costs that these community centers are generating through fees and also additional information on communities that have built community centers in the last several years. The question of using fund balances to build and operate a community center versus asking the voters to support bond financing on this project also needs to be asked. William W. Burns Community Center Page 2 The proposal that we put together several months ago on a community activity center in conjunction with the School District #14 Community Education Center estimated building costs of about three million dollars and operating costs of about $250,000.00 annually. The Council may want to delay making any decisions on the community center pending the outcome of the citizens survey. 4. The issue of partnering with one or more of the school districts on a community activity center also needs to be addressed. Preliminary figures for a facility that we provided a couple of months ago was based on building a community center adjacent to the District #14 C.E.C. and doing some remodeling. Different figures would be needed if we were going to have a stand alone facility or look at putting a community center at a different site. There has been some discussion of a facility adjacent to Fridley Middle School and also I recall at least one of the Council members talking about a facility that would be completely independent of school district property. Before we proceed too much further, we need to know what direction the Council would like to send us. Based on the tight financing faced by the school districts in our community, it does not seem likely that we could rely upon significant financial support from the school districts for a community activity center. The most recent edition of Athletic Business Magazine has an article on community centers that I thought you might like to read. It mentions the New Brighton center in the article. The final issue that I see we need some direction on is wha.t ltind of time line we are going to pursue with this project. If Council would like to see a community center, what type of expectations do they have in terms of a planning and construction schedule. When would they like to see the doors open for operation at a community center? At a recent National Recreation and Park Association conference session, I heard an architect and a building manager suggest that a three-year time line is appropriate for planning, building, and opening a community center. They both stated that it can be done in a shorter period of time, however, to completely do the project right and gain the appropriate amount of community involvement, it generally takes close to that three-year period. I offer the issues above as potential discussion items for the City Council for their conference meeting on the 16th. If there are other items that you would like to discuss or would like me to bring up, please let me know. JK:jm JK95-99 �, rvf, � . ������� �� �� r, .F.. _ . ...... . «-"' n � ,. � k ���� � .

Few such partnerships — with true sharing of facilities — exist, mainly because unless a joint city-school facil- ity is built large enough at the outset for both entities to have their own dedi- cated space, community residents are only able to utilize school facilities after hours. Even then, athletic practices and games place further limitations on com- munity usage.

"It was an absolutely perfect mar- riage," says Bruce Waldo, now director of recreation for the city of Shaker Heights, Ohio, who spearheaded the project in Aurora in the mid-1970s. '"The school even set aside an office so 1 could have a supervisor in the building to manage recreation programs. It was an arrangement that both the school board and the city were very happy with. We estimated in late 1970 dollars, both the school district and the city saved S2 million. All of those facilities the school district was building became accessible to the city at the time the city needed them the mosL° According to other city park and recreation directors who share facilities with schools, there are definitely pros and cons. "At times it gets frustrating because school activities come before your activities," says Ronald Kidd, director of Washington County (Md.) Recreation and Parks. Since 1988, Washington County residents have shared the 85,OOasquaz�foot Athletic Recreation Community Center (ARCC� with stu- dents at Hagerstown Junior College. Stu- dents and faculty get �irst priority at the center, although residents have dedi- cated usage of the facility four nights a week for community activities. , "We use it for 75 percent of our activi- ties,° says Kidd. "Before we got the facil- ity, we didn't have anything other than the schooLs, so this really hit us in the right spot. School activities come before ours, but other than that, it's worked out pretty well " - The situation is much the same for the city of Spearfish, S.D., which utilizes the Donald E. Young Sports and Fltness Center at Black Hills State University. The city decided to shaze a Eacility with the college when an outdoor city pool needed extensive repafrs. Instead of repairing it, the city contributed the money toward the Young Center, which includes both a competltive and leLsure pool, as well as gymnasiums and Htness center azeas. "It was a way to llnk up with them to. ` get a pool built at a cheaper cost," says ��a Keith Hepper, parks, recreation and � forestry superintendent for the dty of � Spearf'�.sh. "It's Nce to have your own facility and you have a lot more control over it, but cost�nrise, we could not have bullt a.facility such as that ;= s;; - 'The downside is, it's a college fac3llty � and it isn't open 24 hours a day.

Some years ago, both the city of ' Manassas and Prince William County were planning to build recreation com- plexes within three miles of each other, and then the iecession hit and "nobody was going to build anything," says John _ Schofield, Prince William's assistant public works�director ' . . , ="We felt that it was going to be at Ieast another decade before the county would be in a position to build anot}�er recreation center, and the city was probably In the same boat,"•says Scho6eld. "We went into the agreement lmowing that each player brings some- thing different to the tabie and you aren't going to have the �eedom you'd have if you did it yourseif.". ,�. ,. The facility will serve aU three enti- ties (city, county and university) and include a 50-meter pool with spectator seating for. 500, a leisure pool, two bas- ketball courts;�racquetball eouits, an elevated track, large. aerobics and �weight/card3ovasculaz areas; a day�care center and meeting rooms.. -; � : "In our case, we feit that having an - - - . - :�- .. ,..____ �-.:< _ . �'� ��We went iM�o the I agreement In�owing fhat ea�h playe* �!'IIf9S �OIf1�1�� d'dfefent to ihe i�able and you oren't 9011f9 �'O �f�1Y� �18' freedom you'd �1�f1/8 If y0Y did it yourself.`�� indoor center that was twice as large as one we could build 10 years �-om now at a price at least 50 percent cheaper than if we built our own — those advantages made up for the disadvantages of not controll[ng the center," says Scho6eld. A 20-year agreement between the city, county and university outlines how the facility will operate. The university will borrow the money for the facility, own and operate it and hire all staff, while an advisory group composed of siu members hom the county, four from the city and two from the university will oversee the operation of the center, SchoHeld says. . "We have fairly strong and clear lan- guage in the agreement that says there will be equal access to any part of the facility for any resident of the city or county, or any member of the student body or faculty at George Mason," he says. "We've tried to think through the major pro�amming issues we will face and set up an appeals process so that if one member is not happy with the amount of access, they can raise it through their advisory group." Another mechanism designed to ensure equal access has elected offi- cials from the city and county correct- ing imbalances in usage when they review- the budget each year. IYs esti- mated that about two-thirds of the peo- ple who will use the center will be county residents, about 30 percent will be city residents and the rest will be staff and students of GMU. ��A common mis�on�epiion IS �fOf _ �p�1'�'.'�C1��eS �If � S�f�fi�d� bYf _ �f�S O'�11 IfOt �IB CaSO.�� "Even at full development,° Schofield says, `�ve don't think the university is going to have more than 8 to 10 percent Iof the total use, so we've pledged to fig ure out what the budget is for both operating and capital, and what we'll get for revenue, and the county will pay 60 percent of whaYs left of the subsidy, the city will pay its shaze and the uni- versity will pay the remainder." Plans are for the center to be self-supporting after nine years. "IYs based on the number of resi- dents of each jurisdiction who use it," says Schofield, "so if our use goes up, we'll pay more and if our use goes down, somebody else will pay more." There are a nvmber of issues cities contemplating partner- ships with school districts or colieges must consider before entering into any agreements — and once agreements aze reached, all of the following shoWd be clearly spelled out in writing. • P�i�n�-+irs. wa9s. This is a part3c ularly sticky issue. If your peak demand times are the same as those of the school or college, then both entities must try to work out an equitable schedulIng system. _ "Usually what that means is you'll have to increase the size of the facility to meet both of those needs," says Bal- . lazd. "If the school district needs two gymnasiums and so does the city, then you may need to build four. You have to plan for the needs of each of those groups during the planning stages. .�:.. _ "Problems occur when you decide you each need two and you build two,. and then one group ends up getting inched out during prime times when they really need it and there's not enough facility available." • Cos� swinys. One misconception many cities have is that there will be a huge cost savings because they won't have to build nearty as much. � "There will be some cost savtngs, but it's not anywhere close to half or even 75 percent You still have to build for both groups of users," Ballard says. =: F.:=::1 • slwrteg �eeilNi�s. Another coin- ; mon misconception is that support ! facilitles llke locker rooms and paridng : lots can be shared, but that's often not ' the case. It's better to have separate � lockers for publlc use because of their htgher expectations. In addItion,'high { school students usually store _items id � their lockers permanendy, leaving few ; lockers open for public use. ` �'�.�,'� �� Pazking is more llkely to be shared,' : �.:...., �,� �.. _��- .,,�- ,•:«. z� but th�e still has�to be enough Paz�B for community_ residents to use when --school ia in sessioa ` • aMKte9 sNe4. Another problem is that all too often, schools need a com- peUtive pciol or. gymnasium space wIth seating, whtle,a dty's needs likeIy are recreational gyms and leisure pools. The differing needs get in the way of any ldnd of an agreement when a joint : facility may otherw3se be very feasible � -=`"I think it's more economical to o'per- ; ate those two together or� one'site In ' one eomplex, but you need to build a leisure. pool and a competitive pooI —' and then deal with-schedullng issues," � says Ballazd. : IndIanapolis (s one city that has done just that. When the school district needed to build a new middle school on dty properry, the city traded 30 acres of land for the ability to add an lndoor aquatic center = Indy tsiand — onto the school. The cIty owns and operates the buildIng, which has a separate entrance and lockes rooms and includes a thre�lane, 2�yard pooi, a therapeutic pool and a zero-depth leisure pooI with a sllde, swim channd and play equipment `� : ,<:. `°•: _ � �- <`-- "We sat down with the school and `designed it for their needs�as well as ours," says Pat OToole, assistant direc tor of Indy Pazks and Recreation, who says that as part of the trade-out, the school uses the pool primarily for phys ed classes, while the city uses one of the school's gymnasiums, a wrestling room, the home economics area, and arts and crafts rooms for its classes. "We h�aded them not only the capital �9�Tifef'e �f�e �f�U/ay�S �i@O�1�e M/�f0 S�fyi 'Wlry �an't we build Of1@ �11'I�faS1Y111 �fQf W1�� i�IS� �fe 116�5 Of �lOf� �f1"h��� There's an obvious answe� to 11�af — It WO/f�t WO�[ �O�' b0�1 �flh�.�� and the ability to come in and build on our property, but we also traded the usage," says OToole. "We sit down once a month and go through the schedule and if anything comes up, we talk." The city also uses the school's out door facilities — a four-field softball complex, football field, four soccer fields, a track and outdoor basketball courts, which the city upgraded where necessary to meet the requirements of adult leagues: '"I'he bottom line is if we went out and built all those facilIties without this part nering idea, it would have cost us $10 miWon. We naw have use of $10 million worth of amenities and it cost us $2 mil- Iion," says OToole. A second joint facility, Pike's Creek, is currentiy being planned in the Pike Township section of Indianapolis. When the city found it was looldng at building an outdoor aquatic center in Pike Town- � f . ; . ship at about the same time the town- , ship was looldng for a poo! facility for three new middle schools, the city and _ district joined forces. • -.,. : ,:, . ... "- "The school had already solidified � 53.5 million to build the pool and we ' had to find our funding, but we were looldng in the neighborhood of S3 mil- lion," says OToole. "We combined bud- gets and through a lot of negotlations, the way it turned out is we'll design it together and it'll go on the corner of their campus, which is in a prime loca� ', tion one block from a ma�or freeway." ., The facility will include indoor com- petitive and leisure pools dIvided by ��COO�!'�tYe �O�'I5 . .. =`now eire abouf � fhe onfy way : ` . : _ _ , you're going f�o � i get anyfhing.�� __ _,__ _...:_..�� locker rooms, as well as an outdoor family aquatic center. The competitive ' pool will be used primarily by the three schools, but all the pooLs wiU be owned '' by the city, and revenue from the out- II ' door pool wili be used to offset the expenses of the indoor pools. .°What happens is it deletes any oper�' tionai budget the school would have," says OToole. "In essence, by allowing us to co-build on their site, build what they need and let them approve it, they'll give us the use of their 33S million, but they won't have a 3150,000�200,000 operattng budget year after year » '°� '�f1�[ �1�: ��C� �S tired., of seeing a school district go out for a :' bond Lssue to build a new high school and the city turn around at the same time and ask for money to build a recreation center," Ballard says. "How come both of these governmental enti- ties aze doing what the public views as the same thing, and nat getting together to maximize the community's resources? "IYs amazing to me how many times the two entities aze not even communi- cating," says Ballard, who cites a school recently built in Louisiana as an exam- ple. `"They built the gyms in the middle of a school and they won't let the city come in and use them because they'd have access to the whole buiiding. Why didn't somebody figure out that they needed to build this so they could still give access to the genera! public?" On the other hand, says Shaker Heights' Waldo, "There are always peo- ple who say, 'Why can't we build one gymnasium that will satisfy the needs of both parties?' There's an obvious answer to that — it won't work for both partfes. I have huge needs for recreation pro- gramming during the daytime hours. We can't do that in school facilities, and school personnel would be the first to agree on that. We get four hours of access to that ldnd of a facility when we need 18 hours." "Cooperative efforts now are about the only way you're going to get any- thing," says Washington County's Kidd. "All the funds have really taken a whack and Tm sure it's the same all over." The problem is there's still little his- tory on how projects can successfully be done, and everybody is a little leery of the steps to take to enter into an a�rre� ment with a school district or college. "The diificult part of getting these partnerships going is there is a lot of hostility because everyone is looking out for their own best interests," says John Lawrence, leisure services man- ager for the Sunnyvale (Calif.) Parks and Rec Department. "It's hard to step back and say, if you want to keep your job, then you have to look at what is best for the community. And what's best for the comrivanity, particulariy in these times of very difficult funding, is to combine � your efforts and work together." ■ _ ' - - MEMORANDUM � _ CITYOF FRlDLEY Municipal Center 6431 University Avenue Northeast Fridley, Minnesota 55432 (612) 572-3507 FAX: (612) 571-1287 Memo to: William W.

Hunt, Assistant to the City Manager Guidelines for Labor Negotiations October 11, 1995 �� � I have been contacted by the representatives of the Police and Public Works Maintenance unions to beg�n negotiations for labor agreements covering 1996 and possibly 1997. So far I have in mind � the following guidelines from budget discussions for 1996: For All Unions 1. Ma�rimum increase of 2.0 percent on wage rates for 1996. Would consider +2.0% for 1996 and +2.0% for 1997. 2. No increase on the maximum contribution toward insurance a. for dependent coverage: $345 per month b. for single coverage: $210 per month 3. No increase in Option B of the Flexible Benefit Plan: $165 per month For the Police Union Regardless of the outcome of the current arbitration for the 1995 contract, I will propose a cap on educational assistance of $2,250 per employee per year with an e�ansion from tuition only to include books and class related fees such as lab fees. There might be a need to adjust the monthly supplement for corporals or investigators depending on the situation. For the Public Works Union We might have to negotiate the consequences of the federal drug testing regulations for employees required to have a Commercial Driver's License (CDL). Although the federal regulations are not negotiable, we might have to negotiate the disciplinary consequences for violation of the regulations, such � Memorandum to William W. Burns Guidelines for Labor Negotiations October 11, 1995 Page Two as suspension without pay or dismissal. We don't want to be in the position where the law says that the maintenance person can't drive a vehicle but we have to keep that person on the job in a non-driving capacity at the same pay. It has to be clear that if the person can't drive, s/he is unable to perform one of the essential job functions and cannot continue to work in any other capacity. I get conflicting information from the "e�erts" on this point, but we want to be sure to have it nailed down in the 1996 contract. For the Firefighters' Union Issues that were discussed in recent years were e�rtra pay for fire motor operator, more than ten hours of pay for each holiday, and increase of the minimum call-back pay from one hour to two hours. I will resist any change in these items. The current uniform allowance is $375 per year. Once again I will propose either no increase or the City provides uniforms as needed. I would be happy to discuss any of these items with you at greater length at your convenience. r , _ � Comm.unity Development Department P�.A�nvuvG D�s�orr City of Fridley DATE: October 12, 1995 �� TO: William Bums, City Manag� � FROM: ���1-?�I�� Barbara Dacy, Community Development Dire�tor The Metropolitan Livable Communities Act The Metropolita� Livable Communities Act was enacted in June, 1995 by the legislature to address a number of housing and economic developmerrt issues which have been discussed in the legislature for the past 2- 3 ye�ars. The Act creates three "accounts" which communities may attempt to receive money for specific purposes. In order to be eligible to receive these funds, c:ommunities must pass a resolution electing to participate in the Metropolitar� Livable Communities Program. What is in it for us? Participating in the program would achieve the following: 1. Access to three funding sources: - A. Local Housing Incentives accourrt program {$'! -$2 million available per Y� B. C. Tax Base Revrtalization acxount program ($6.5 million per year� The Livable Communities Demonstration account ($4.6 million per year) 2. Higher scores on applications to the Minnesota Housi�g Fina�ce Agency and the Departmerrt of Trade and Economic Developmerrt Polluted Sites Clean-Up Pro9�• 3. Participation could be defined as "compliance" with the requiremerrt.s of the settler�nent agreement executed this past summer with the Sylvan Oaks Tenant Association. � Livable Communities Act October 12, 1995 Page 2 4. By supporting the philosophy of the Livable Communities Act now, it would help the City to establish itself for future issues relating to neighbofiood improvement or housing issues which may be discussed by the legislature or the Metropolitan CounciL 5. Because the program is a votuntary program, the City may elect to participate or not participate on an annual basis. What if we don't participate? If the City elects not to participate, the following would occur: The City would receive lower scoring on any funding applications to the Metropolitan Housing Finance Agency or Department of Trade and Economic Development. 2. If a majority of other cities participate in the program, Fridley may be perceived as one of the few that are not cooperating in the effort to build "tivabie communities". � . 3, if we do decide to participate in the program at a later-time, the City must estabiish that it has spent its "affordabie and life cycle housing opportunities amount" since 1996. The 1996 amount for the City is $3�103. The amourrt will accumulate over time. Tax increment financing is an eligible fund for the City to designate as its share. 4. If the City does not participate, then it is not eligible to apply for funds in the three acxounts that were established under the Livable Communities Act What happens if we pass a resolution to participate in the Act? The City must decide to participate prior to November 15 of each year. What happens next is the following: 1. The Livable Communities Act requires the Metropolitan Council to negotiate with each City to est�ablish affordable and life cycle housing goals that are consisterrt with the policies of the Metropolitan Council. The goals are based on the "benchmark analysis" that Metropolitan Council staff has already completed. The City of Fridley is in compliance with all of its benchmarks; therefore, negotiation with xhe Metropolitan Council would probably be based on goals that would senre "to maintain" the City's compliance. l.ivable Communities Act October 12, 1995 Page 3 2. By June 30, 1996� the City must adopt an action plan which implements the negotiated goals. The format of the actio� plan can be modeled after the Housing chapter of the City's Comprehensive Plan. The Act do� not require the Metropolitan Council to approve the action plan, but permits the Metropolitan Council to commerrt on the plan's content i� relation to the goais that have been estabiished. The goals are intended to be long term. and beginning in 1998, the City's progr�s toward the goals wiil be monitored on an annual basis. The goal establishmerrt is a one time occurrence and the intent is to enc�urage the City to meet housing benchmarks. � What are the benchmarks that the City is aareeing to? Participating in the program would require the City to adopt six housing principles (see attached) and agree to use the following benchmark indicators: 1. Affordability. This is a means of ineasuring the afforclability of both home ownership and rerrtal housing. For home ownership� the index in each community is based on the percentage of a singie family home below $115�000 (this assumes that a household with 80� of the median income or $41 �000 per year couid afford a home priced at $115,000). For rental housing� the index is based on the percentage of rental units below $5()0 per morrth. In Fridley's case, we exceed both of these benchmarks. 2. �ife cycie housing. This is a means of m�suring the types of housing choices available within a community. The index is the percentage of housing units which are non-single family� including ali multiple family, condominium, townhome, and manufactured housing units. The owner/rerrter mix is the percentage of own�-ocxupied housing units (regardless of type) and the percentage of rental housing units. Again� the City meets and exceeds the benchmarks. Efforts to create addi�onal housing for empty nesters and seniors and other housing types is exempiified in the Southwest Quadr•ant are good examples of the City's effort to meet this benchmark. 3. Density index. This index examines the dens'ity pattems within a community in terms of #he numb� of units per acre. The index is based on the City's zoning ordinance requirements. The City's current single family lot size for single family and multiple family properties is within benchmark guidelines. The Metropolitan Council wants to encourage Livable Communities Act October ) 2, 1995 Page 4 compact dense development within the Metropolitan urban service area as much as possible. What is the purpose of the three "accounts'7 To provide incentives to communities, the Act creates three new programs, including: 1. The tax base revitalization acxourrt. This account provides grants for polluted site clean-up. Funds can be used in combination with other environmental programs� such as those offered by DTED. This may be a worthwhile acxount for the City for redevelopment aativities which are intended for commercial and industrial developmerrt (i.e.� automotive or other site clean-up). The clean-up funds c�r� not only be used for redeveloping properties, but for rehabilitating commercial and industriai properties to remove asbestos and other hazardous materials. 2. The livable communities demonstration account. This acxount provides loans or grants to communities which create innovative projects that link housing, transi� and job locations. The purpose of this account is to encourage communities to coordinate these three facets into a redevelopmerrt project. An exampie in Fridley may be the redevelopment of the Frank's Used Car site since it is located on a major Vansit corridor and other services in the area. 3. Local housing incerrtives acxount This account provides grants to help cities work toward affordable and life cycie housing goals. Because the City is meeti�g its benchmark, the City may not be given top priority for funding for housing projects; however� Metropoli#an Council staff has stated that an application for rehabilitation projects to preserve and improve existing housing would be given serious consideration. The intent of this account is pdmarily intended for the second and third ring suburbs to come into compliance with affordable housing guidelines. Conclusion After reviewing the information from the Metropolitan Council and talking with other communities (a majority of communities will be participating), it seems that the advantages of the program outweigh the outcomes of �ot participating. Of critical importance to the City is the ability to receive funds from MHFA. For example, if this Uvable Communities Act October 12. 1995 Page 5 program were in place and ACCAP had made applications to MHFA for the leas�old coopera�ve project in Hyde Park, there may have been a negative consequence ff the City was not participating in the program. Second� we are atl aware of dwindling financial resources. Participating in the program will give the City the ability to access three other funding sources which could be used to offset our tax increment expenditures. Unless otherwise directed, the model resolution included in this packet will be placed on the October 23, 1995 City Council agenda for consideration.

The Metropolitan Livable Communities Act ("Act") was enacted in June 1995 and is the Legislature's attempt to address various issues facing the seven-county metropolitan area. The Act establishes a Metropolitan Livable Communities Fund which consists of three accounts: the Tax Base Revitalization Account; the Livable Communities Demonstraxion Account; and the Local Housing Incentives Accoun� Metropolitan municipalities are not required to participate in the programs unde.r the Ac� but the Act _ provides incentives and funding to those municipaZities that do participate. 2. What is the incentive to participate? : The benefzts are clear. Cities, towns anc� in some cases, counties have access to resources that will improve their communities and neighborhoods In addition, the legislation puts local tatits of govern- ment in the driver's seat. Communities can not only choose whether to participaie; they also have flexibility in deternzining how they're going to use the resour+ces available. 3. What is the incentive to provide lower-oost housing in our community? Affondable housing is an investment in communities and their resid.ents It fulfills a co»unitment to young families, si►cgle people and older residents that they can find a home they can a,�`'ord in the com- munity of their choice. 4. What are "affordable" housing and "life-cycle" housing? Housing is "affordable" if it costs no more than 30 percent of a family's income. For ownership hous- ing this income amount is 80 percent of inedian, an amount that in 1994 could afford a home costing approzimately $11 S, 000. For rental housing this income is SO per�ent of inedian. In 1990 this was approximately $S00 per month. , "Life-cycle" housing refers to housing available for people at all stages of their lives, o,,�`'ering a choice and variety of housing types and cost to accomanodate people's changing needs and Pr�eferences as their incomes and circumstances change. 5. What are the affordable and life-cycle housing opportunities amount? The Affordable and Life-Cycle Housing Opportunities Amount ("ALIiOA amount") is an amount. established by formula in the Ac� that a participatircg municipality must spend to create afj`ordable and life-cycle housing or to maintain existing a. ffvrdable and li, fe- cycle housing. A participating municipality's ALHOA mnount is established each year. 6. Does the ALHOA amonnt have to be a property taz levy? No. The ALHOA amount can be derived from a levy, or it can be derived from fundsfr�vm another source. Regardless of the source of funds for the municipadity's AL�IOA amoun� a particiParinB �munici- pality that did not meet its negotiated c�`or�dable and life- cycle housing goals, and did not spend 85 pe�+cent of its AI.HOA amount to create a,,�`ordable and life- cycle housing opporturcities in the previous year, must distribute the entire ALHOA amount to a IocaZ housing and redevelopment authority to create af,j�ordable and life-cycle housing opportunities in the municipality, or to the Metropolitan Council for distribution through the Local Housing Incentives Program. 7. If my municipality elects by November 15,1995, to participate in the I.ocal Housing Incen- tives Account Program, must the municipality spend an ALHOA amount in calendar ye�ar 1996? No. Because of various ti»ung provisions in the Act, the AIIFIOA amount requirement does not apply until your municipality's election to participate in the LocaZ Housing Incentives Account Program made by November 1 S, 1996, for calendar year 1997. 8. If my municipality elects �to participate in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program by November 15,1995, but is unable to agree on housing goaLs with the Metropolitan Council, must the municipality participate in the program? No. A municipality is not purti�ipating � tJ� J�cal_Housing In�entives Account Program unless iwo conditions have been met.• � a. __ _-- The municipality has elected to participate in the program; and __.. _. b• . The Metropolitan Council and the municipality have negotiated and agreed on affordable and life-cycle housing goals for the municipality. If the municipality and t,yce Metropolitan Council do not successfully negotiate housing goals, your municipality mczy__not participate in the I,ocal Housing Incentives Account Program. 9. Must my municiPalitY P��Pate in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program? � No. - Participation in the program is voluntary, but a miuiicipality ihat �es not participate may at some later time elect to participate irl the program, However, a municipalitj, which later elects to participate must establish that it has spent�or agrees to spend on a, ff'ondabte and Zife_cycle housing an crmouri� ,_, equivaleni to what it would have spent on a,,�`'ordable cmd life-cycle y�ousing y� go� been established for the� period in which the municipality was not participating. 10. If my municipality has met its housing goals in the previous calendar Yeai', maY mY munici- P�t3' Participate in the Local Housing Incentives Acconnt Program? . Yes. However, your municipality will not be eligible to receive grants froric the Local Housing Incentives Account Program if it met its affordable and tife_cycle housing goals your municipality still tiuill be eligible for grants and loans under the Liyable Comm�nities Demonstration Account and Tax Base Revitalization Accouni programs 11• What if my municipality chooses not to participate in the Locai Housing iocentives Ac- count Program? Murticipalities that elect not to participate in the Local Housing Incennves Account Program are not eligible to participate in the Tax Base RevitaliZation Account and Liyable Communities Demonstration Account programs urider the Act. The Metropolitan Council is. required by the Act to take into account your municipality's participation in the Local Hous� Incentives Account Pro�ram when makinQ �� er �ry, funding decistons. In addition, your municipality will not be eli ible to a t S PP y for�unds under the Department of ?'rad.e and Economic Development's polluted sites clean-up program if your municipality is not participating in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program. 12. If my municipality elects to participate in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program, but does not have the capacity to create additional affordable and life- -�--- cycle housing opportunities, can my municipality give its ALHOA amounts to other municipalities to meet negotiated housing goals? Yes. A municipality that has negotiated housing goals, but might not have adequate resources to create or maintain affordable and life-cycle housing opportunities still could be considered a participating mu- nicipaliry. However, the municipality would be required to distribute its ALHOA amount to the Metro- politan Council for distribution to other participating municipalities or distribute its ALHOA amount to a local housing and redevelopment authority for creating affordable and life-cycle housing opportunities . within the municipaliry. The Act permits municipalities to enter into agreements with adjacent municipali- ties to cooperatively provide affordable and life�ycle housing. The Metropolitan Council will work with municipalities to help municipalities create affordable and life-cycle housing opporlunities and avail themselves of the incentives and funding available under the Act and from other sources. 13. If my mwricipality is using local resources to make payments on a mortgage for an afford- able or life-cycle housing opportunity created prior to the Act, can these resonroes count toward ezpenditures of the municipatity's ALHOA amount? Yes. As long as the use of the funds is directly related to your municipality's efj`�orts to meet .its a,�`'ord- able and life-cycle housing goals, these local resources can be considered an expendsture of ALHOA amounts. 14. Are the goais for a�ordable and li%-cycle housing, as prnposed bY the Metropolitan Coan- cil, achievable? The goals proposed by the Metropolitan Council are intended to be "lottg-term" goals. Your m.unici- pality will establish an action plan that identifies the steps your municipaliry intends to take to move toward its long-range goals. Beginning in 1998, your municipality's annual progress in meeting its negotiated affordable and life-cyclehousing goals will be measured against the annual goals your municipality sets forth its action plan. Progress toward the goals will depend on private marketplace efforts, the availabiliry of affordable and life-cycle housing resources and the use of local controls to create an environment to meet goals. 15. Do the Metrnpolitan Couacil and a municipality negotiate and set housing goais $nnua�y� No. The Act envisions negotiated housing goals as a one-time process. That is why the goals are long term in nature. The Metropolitan Council will propose a�`'ordabte and life-cycle housirig goals thai encourage your municipality to uddress key housing benchmarks. 16. After the Metropoiitan Council and a municipality negotiate and set affordable and life- cycle housing goals for the municipality, what happens next? The municipality mustprepare an action plan that describes how it intends to meet its negotiated goals. The municipality has unhl June 30, 1996, to submit the action pian to rhe Metropolitan Council. 17• Does the Metropolitan Council have to approve the action plan? The Act does not require the Metropolitan Council to approve a mraiicipulity s acnon plan, However, the Metropolitan Council wi11 comment on the plan's content in relation to the negotiated goals that have been establishea� and it will attempt to identify poteniia.l resour�ces available to the municipality to help the municipality meet its negotiated affordable urui life-cycle housing goals 18. What should the action plan look like? The .suggested fornzat will be modeled after the one used P�- the housing element of your comprehensive ' M'• t t;�' f . , -�� � � /� Funding Accounts The Metropolitan Livable CommunitiesAd (NIN Stat.

In fact, I acknowledged it was a public meeting, but encou ged Harstad to permit the Council to discuss its options and legal ramifications. Harstad said the fill on the property may be able to be used for a h use slab. I advised Harstad that the fill placed on the lot after the 1986 permit placed on the lot without a pennit in the first place, and that the Council was not oing to ignore that fact. He co�tinues to maintain that the filling was completed thout authorization, but I advised him that the owner is still responsible r complying with the City's ordinances. I also asked for his cooperation for removin the illegal fill, and if he did not cooperate, the Council may direct staff to pursue legal action. I told Harstad the meeting was a public meeeting, but no neig occurred since the purpose of the meeting was to advise the options before further discussion with anyone. Harstad stated that he conferred with his father and that his father attend. d notification of its legal that Paul Paul Harstad's Attendance October 13, 1995 Page 2 Finally, I advised Harstad that there are reaAy two issues: 1) should the City pursue legal action on the property regarcling the fill; and 2) what are the options for development or no developmerrt on the property. The front yard setback variance is sstill tabled� and once issue #1 is resolved, Harstad needs to either submit a leiter withdrawing the application or finish the variar�e process. No matter what happens, staff will take whatever steps Council would like to see occur with the neighborhood. I hope Harstad's atter�dance wili not be perceived as "imbalanci�g" the process. My inteM was to analyze the scope of options for the Counci! for discussion only prior to meeting with anyone affected by this case. :� M-95-536 r r s � � Community Development PL�NG D�s� City of Fridley DATE: October 12, 1995 Q_ � �T TO: William Burns, City Manager � FROM: artment Barbara Dacy, Community Development Director Michele McPherson, Planninq Assista t SUBJECT: Illegal Fill by Paul Harstad on History As the Council is aware, in 1994, the City proces� replacement application by Paul Harstad for lots 1 and 5490 East Danube Road. In addition, a varianc to reduce the front yard setback on both lots was The Council denied the wetland replacement appiica action on the variance applications pendinq invest illegal fill on the lots. Mr. Harstad appealed th decision to the Board of Water and Soil Resources, the City's decision. The Council directed staff to investigate alleqat fill which occurred on the lots. These allegatio by the neighbors during the public hearing held f replacement application. Staff directed Ron Pete Environmental Consulting, to review aerial photos the present time and determine the amount of fill Investigation Results In 1986, the City issued a land alteration permit Homes to fill the subject lots. The land alterati indicated that the lots were to be filled to the e which is located 40 feet from the rear lot line of Danube, and 20 feet from the rear lot line of 5470 The results of the fill activity resulted in all o filled, and only approximately 50� of 5470 being f Danube Lots d a wetland �cated at 5470 application ls� requested. ion and tabled gation of City's which upheld ns of illegal were raised the wetland on, Peterson rom 1977 to hich occurred. o Homestead n permit sement line 5490 East East Danube. 5490 being lled. Mr. Peterson's review began with the 1977 photoqra h. This photo indicated.no fill had occurred; the wetland was st'll in "pristine" condition. The estimated area of the w tland was .6 to .7 acres. The next photo to indicate fill acti ity was dated 1986. Unfortunately, the area of fill was not abl to be � Illegal Fill by Paul Harstad October 12, 1995 Page 2 calculated due to the oblique nature of the photoqraph. In late 1987, fill activity was also observed, however, it is not clear that the fill impacted additional area or if it occurred over existing fill from 1986. The wetland had been reduced to .3 acres. Evidence of fill was also observed in the 1989 and 1991 photos. However, this fill occurred over previous fill areas, and did not include further impact to the wetland. No land alteration permits were issued for this activity. No fill was observed in the 1993 photos, although eyewitnesses reported dumpinq of fill on the property. Adverse Impact? The fill placed on the property from 1989-1993 did no displace any additional wetland area, and was placed in the same location on the lot as previous fill activity. To say that the fill activity in this time frame caused seepage into basements or caused other groundwater effects would not be accurate. If it caused surface water impacts, then the City�s case is further improved. The fill placed on the property after 1986 was done without a permit. Based on this fact, a misdemeanor could be charged and the City could petition the court to require removal of the fill placed on the property after 1986. Paul Harstad indicated in a phone call that he and his father were not aware of the filling, especially in 1993. Based on the aerial photo evidence, the City has leverage to negotiate and prosecute for the removal of the fill. Removing the fill, however, does not solve the problem of future use of the property. Council Options Staff has identified three alternatives, their estimated costs, and their pros and cons, for the Council to consider: A. Pursue Legal Action An action could be filed to require removal of the fill placed on the property after 1986. Fill authorized under the 1986 land alteration permit would still remain on the lot. A new owner would need to determine the appropriateness of the remaining fill and how much, if any additional fill would be required to construct a dwelling on the _ lot . _. This does not, however, resolve any issues pertaining to groundwater impacts. A specific hydrologic study for the area, including a historical analysis of the rainfall and Illegal Fill by Paul Harstad October 12, 1995 Page 3 groundwater conditions, water runoff amounts post development conditions, and sworn affida neighbors would have to be obtained. It is e the cost for this analysis could be $20,000-3 B. Allow Construction on the Filled Portion Staff has been contacted by the Smiths, Frid who are interested in purchasinq the lot at Danube. Mr Harstad is "throwinq inp the sec additional $1, and is not marketing it as a In a conversation with the Smiths on Thursda indicated a willingness to improve the wetla adjacent lot if they purchased the 5490 lot. properly regrade and excavate the wetland an plantinqs.

This e lot, and age to meet a soils will need easement This option poses no financial impact to the ity, and in fact the City stands to gain via the tax incr ase created by the new dwelling. The neighborhood also qain aesthetically and environmentally with the improved wetland. If this option is chosen, the variance reques by Mr. Harstad should either be withdrawn or final a tion taken by the Council. The variance was tabled by the ouncil at its June 20, 1994 meeting. C. Acquire and Restore In this option, the City would acquire, eithe negotiation or condemnation, both lots. The would be restored, and "banked" under the rul Wetland Consexvation Act.

This option provides a win-win situation for both the City and the neighborhood in terms of aesthetics, environmental impacts, and industrial development. There are few, if any locations in the City remaining for wetland mitigation sites. It is esti.mated that this option would cost between $10,000-30,000, depending on the method of acquisition and the timing of the restoration. Paul Harstad intends to attend Monday night's meeting.

She stated that the City's consultant i attempting_to locate additional photos.to determine what fill occurred after 1986. Ms. McPherson stated that staff recommends that Co ncil adopt the resolution which states the reason for denial f the wetland replacement plan. Ms. McPherson stated that the petitioner believes that Exemption 24 from the state statute applies in this� case. he then quoted this section. Ms. McPherson stated that staff has made a determin tion that this �� exemption does not apply. She stated the ori inal plat was / completed and finali2ed prior to the July 1, 1986 d te�outlined in 8 FRIDLEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF JIINE 20. 1994 PAGE 3Q ExemptiQn 24. She stated that during the plat approval process, y:} the wetland issue was not addressed and areas of fill not clearly indicated on the plat. Sire .stated. that wh�le the City issued .a land alteration permit in.1.986, a building._permit was not issued, . and the filling did not occur to the extent the permit allowed. Councilman Schneider asked if additional filling occurred after 1986. . Ms. McPherson stated that in reviewing the 1989 aerial photos, there is a clear demarcation from the old fill and new fill. She stated:that staff is in the process of checking the amoun� of fill. placed there iri 1986, so the amount of new fill�observed in 1989 photographs can be calculated.. She stated that the south edge of Lot 6 was filled between 1989 and 1993. . Councilman Schneider asked the City Attorney if he felt the�City had a valid case under Exemption 24. Mr. Herrick, City Attorney, stated that he felt the information given by staff is defensible but a good argument can be�made that this exemption does not apply. He stated that, however, this is a new statute, and he could not predict the outcome. He stated that he �agreed with staff's recommendations and- did not believe the applicant met the requirements of the state statute, as he admitted when this issue was before the Planning Commission. Mr. Paul Harstad, the petitioner, stated that City staff has done an outstanding job and has been very thorough in following through with the state's requirements. He stated that their proposal does not meet the 2:1 replacement ratio, but there is no more room to mit.igate unless they tear down trees on the property. Mr. Harstad stated that in regard to Exemption 24, the fact that these lots were not developed prior to 1986 is�irrelevant, and they are-not being allowed to develop them because of a state law. He stated that there were fifteen lots that were exempt from assess- ments. They were considered unbuildable, and these are two of the lots. He asked the status of the other thirteen lots. Ms. McPherson stated that of the fifteen lots, four are vacant, and the remaining eleven were built on. She stated of these eleven lots, all but two were developed between 1975 and 1979. Mr. Harstad stated that it appears there are a number of facts that indicate the lots are buildable. He stated that one of those facts is that, in 1986, they acquired a permit to fill both Lots 5 and 6 and at that time, chose to €ill Lot 5 to make it buildable. He stated that due to economic reasons, they chose not to build on that lot: He stated that there are clearly issues of drainage, and the impact the filling caused to the adjacent property owners. Mr. Harstad stated that Council will either have to approve or deny � r .� � this..request. If it is.denied, Mr. Harstad sai that his intent is to appear before the state..Iie stated that the will move ahead and test �t2ie constitutionality of the Wetland Co� se�-vation � Act�. : Councilman�Schneider asked Mr. Harstad to address he filling other than in 1986. Mr. Harstad stated that from 1988 to 1992 he was going to school. He did inquire about the filli his office honestly knows about�it: He statec already corrected, and there was no reason to p: that site. He stated that�as�for Lot 6, it would to add more fill when the sub-soil was not corrE that he is not taking responsibiZity for the fi� site. He stated it is unfortunate that it hap particularly-unfortunate that a neighbor:�saw company filling that site. He stater� that t contractor to do some "grading.

He stated that in heavy rains, to their back door. Mr. Burns, City Manager, asked the impact of wat yards prior to 1993.

She stated that the Appeals Commission recommended denial of these variances. Councilman Schneider stated that the Appeals Commission and staff are recommending denial of the variances.

The petitioner could also construct a smailer home which meets the setback requirements and the 0-4 regulations of the Wetland Conservation Act. � Mr_ Herrick, City Attorney, stated that the proper action miqht be to table this request, as he felt action on the variances would be premature without knowing the outcome of the denial of the wetland replacement plan_ c ;_� ;� ,:.;:� � Mr. Harstad, the petitioner, stated that a small r home could be � constructed,��as �mentioned by Ms. McPherson. e did not feel �� adjacen� property owners would want that size hom in the area.� Ms. Burg, 5557 East Danube Road, stated that the reason the variances are being requested is to give a bet er argument for bringing in.t�e fill.

Our methodology and findings are set forth below. METHODOLOGY In order to gain insight as to the amount of wetland originally exisl property, we analyzed the SCS Soil Survey for Anoka County (1 Wetland Inventory (NWI) map for the azea, which is based on 1980 � The subsequent history of wetland filling activities on the sub investigated based on historic aerial photographs obtained from a nur the years 1986, 1987, 1989, 1991 and 1993.

We a filling to be occurring if one or more of the following characteristics v� locations previously identified as wetland: (1) recently scarified azea with in areas previously identified as wetland; (2) visible fill piles that were n� last photo; and/or (3) visible track marks from heavy machinery. Any filling activity that occurred prior to January l, 1992 would ha effective date of the WCA Interim program. Filling activities occurring 1, 1992 and July 1, 1993 would be subject to WCA regulation under the any wetland filled during this period would require 1 to 1 acreage repla occurring after July l, 1993 would be subject to the WCA Permanent Pr require 2 to 1 acreage replacement. RESULTS Original Wetland Acreage �C� �c�il Survey for Anoka Countv � We reviewed the SCS Soil Survey for Anoka County (1977) to determine of hydric soils on the subject property (Figure 1). This portion of Fridley developed by the SCS and soils were not mapped. However, the aerial t survey provided some indication as to the distribution of wetland acreag area. This photo base is not of a large enough scale to accurately measw size; however, by scaling the wetland appears to be between 0.6 and 0.7 a surrounded by a forested fringe. No fill was evident within the wetland as Print Print i Blue Insty- Print � to determine Based on our � active filling estimated the sidered active e observed in tle vegetation present in the pre-dated the ween January :rim Program; ient.

Due to the very small scale of the NW possible to determine the acreage mapped as wetland. However, the cc on the NWI map appears consistent with that shown on the SCS Soi wetland of between 0.6 and 0.7 acres appeazs to have once existed, a of which lay within Lots 5 and 6. 1986 Conditions >n as indicated on : map, it was not sfiguration shown Survey. Thus, a ubstantial portion � We were not able to locate a direct overhead, to-scale photograph of subject property for the year 1986. However, we were able to obtain a color aerial �o lique photograph taken on October 9, 1986 which clearly shows active filling/grading ctivity occurring � along the eastern margin of the subject wetland (Figure 3). This otograph clearly shows a tan colored, scarified azea with no vegetation covering the north end of the previously identified wetland. Because this photo is oblique, neither e acreage being � graded nor the amount of wedand filled cannot be accurately measure . However, some wetland filling is clearly evident since the SCS Soil Survey aerial ph to base indicates wetland immediately adjacent to East Danube Road where the grading i occurring. gl 1987 Conditions � The November 10, 1987 aerial photograph we obtained is the largest scale and highest quality photo we found (Figure 4). This photo shows fresh grading ac 'vity that was not � apparent in the 1986 photo. This is evident due to the presence of v sible tread mazks from a bulldozer or other tracked machine; since the 1987 photo was en very late in the construction season, we do not believe these tread marks represe t remnants of the � 1986 construction season. It is unclear whether the 1987 grading w done entirely on top of pre-existing fill or if it included new wetland fill. The lack of s ale on the eazlier 1986 photo does not allow for a precise comparison of fill distribution 'th the later 1987 � photo. However, the subject wetland has been reduced to about 030 ac e in size from the approximately 0.6 to 0.7 acres visible on the SCS Soil Survey aerial ph to base. � � � � 1989 Conditions The May 1989 photograph shows new filling that was not visible in the (Figure 5). Fill piles are readily evident along the east edge of the ar� years. It is unknown whether this new filling occurred in 1988 or 19! appear to have involved any new wetland fill. 1987 photograph :a filled' in earlier �9 but it does not Ms. Michele McPherson July 14, I995 Page 4 PEC Project No. 94-046 1991 Conditions The fill limits visible in the 1991 aerial photograph appeaz to be identical to in the 1989 photograph (Figure 6), though some new fill piles appear to havE over pre-existing fill. Some revegetation of the previously filled area is al: visible. Thus, it appears that no new wetland filling occurred between the 19 photographs. 1993 Conditions hose visible been added o becoming g9 and 1991 The 1993 aerial photograph shows the same distribution of fill as is eviden in the 1989 photograph (Figure 7). The previously mentioned fill piles appear to have been graded flat and show signs of partial revegetation. However, it does not appear that ew wetland filling occurred between 1989 and 1993. Summary of Filling Activity Roughly 0.3 to 0.4 acres of wetland fill were already in place in Novem Fresh grading on the previously filled area was visible in 1987; however, appear that any of this grading activity extended beyond the limits of the fi: 1986. Between 1987 and 1989 additional fill was placed on the site, but agai appear to have extended beyond the limits of previously filled wetland. T'h placed fill to the north appears to have been flattened out by 1989 but does � have been extended farther into the wetland. Both the 1991 and 1993 photos no further wetland fill had occurred since 1989. Previously scarified areas a� substantially re-vegetated since 1989. Regulatory Analysis �r of 1986. it does not in place in it does not previously �t appear to ndicate that �ear to have All of the wetland filling and grading observed on the subject property app ars to have occurred prior to 1989. Though the 1991 and 1993 photos indicate som additional grading, no new wetland fill is apparent in those years. Thus, the wetland fi Is observed on the subject property appeazs to have entirely pre-dated the passage of the CA. We hope that the foregoing information is of assistance in the City f Fridley's investigations of filling activities on the Subject property.

Since the City Cour�il's discussion, the Hearing Commi ioner's on the Keefe property have made an award. Based o� this award, the City Attomey and f have been able to determine a better estimate on what the costs wo Id be to finish the acquisition portion of the project. The original acquisition portion of the Southwest Quadr�nt budget expenses to-date are as follows: Acquisition Budget - $2,836,968 Tennenbaum - $ 375,000 Keefe - $ 272,620 Suh - $� , � pp,ppp $1,089,348 Using a per unit acquisition cost based on the Keefe award, and a Cherrywood Apartments, the Commissioner's award would be app $1,313,532. The City Attomey is more comfortable that we would I a similar award on the Cherrywood Apartments because the condi� apartments was worse, and at best, matched that of the Keefe buil the additional cost to the HRA would be approximately $225�000 if Commissioner's award matched the previous per unit award. $2,836,968. The � that to the able to achieve � of the ig. Therefore, SW Quadrant Condominiums October 12, 1995 Page 2 The Cherrywood Apartment owners wanted $1,800�000. A realistic rar�ge of additional acquisition costs wouid therefore be $225,000 to $500,000. At the low end, the total additional cost to the HRA with the condominiums is less than $1,000,000. At the high end, it is $1,400,000. There are three options: 1. Go ahead with the condominium construction and require an equity participation agreemen� 2. Eliminate the senior condominiums and add additiona! townhomes. 3. Seek another developer. A fourth option discussed at the last City Council meeting was to leave the northeast comer of the site vacant and search for another senior housing developer, but have Rottlund constn�ct the tovmhomes.
