SUBJECT: PUBLIC HEARING ON THE 1996 BUDGET AND
16 MILLS LEVY
DA'TE: November 14, 1995
Attached is a eopy of the 1996 Truth in Talcation Budget Public Hcaring Notice whicb
appeared in the Fridley Focus on November 30, 1995. This information is required by
the Department of Revenue and fulfills the requirements as set out in the Truth and
Taxatian Legislation. I have also provided a copy of the Public Hearing Notice required
by the charter when levying a tax in excess of 16 mills. '
These public hearing notificadons serve to iill two requirements f�r the City oi Fridley;
(1) to fulfill the Truth and Taxation . requirement, and (2) levy what appears to be a tax
levy in excess of 16 mills.
As you recall, past legislation caused a shift in Loca1 Govemmental Aids away from the
cities and towards the school districts. This action caused the City to hold an additional
Public Hearing for levying a tax which appears to be in excess of 16 -mills. Due to
formula change from mill levy to tax capacity rates it has been unpossible to convert one
to the other. So this pul�lic hearing notice satisfies the charter requirement that we hold
a public hearing when we feel that we are levying in excess of 16 mills.
This Public Hearing will differ from the usual public hearings we have, in that this
hearing will have two topics; (1). the Public Hearing on the City of Fridley Budget, and
(2) the Public Hearing to levy a tax which appears to be in excess of 16 mills. You miglit
recall that the reasoning for this is that the main topic of the December Sth and
December llth Council Meetings is for consideration and approval of the. budget. Prior
to adjournment of the hearing the city must announce, the date, time and place for the
adoption hearing which will be December llth if a continuation hearing is not necessary.

On November 8, 1995, representatives from the City of Fridley,
Ramsey County and the Rice Creek Watershed District met in a second
mediation session to discuss possible settlement of the pending
litigation surrounding the Locke Lake improvement project. Public
Works Director John Flora and I attended the mediation on behalf of
the City of Fridley. At the mediation session, the matter was
tentatively settled. This tentative settlement was previously
presented to the City Council and was approved at that time. The
tentative settlement was also subsequently approved by the Ramsey
County Board of Commissioners. The representatives from the Rice
Creek watershed District who were present at the mediation,
including three of the board members and their attorneys, have also
indicated that they will approve the tentative settlement.
Following the ratification of the tentative agreement by the three
parties, the attorneys have been working on the language of the
final settlement agreement and joint powers agreement. That
language has now been finalized. The language is attached for your
review. The substantive provisions are as follows: �
Fridley will make a monetary contribution of $54,000.00 and
will remove $52,000.00 worth of material from Locke Lake to
reduce the costs to be allocated to Ramsey County. As a
result of Fridley's contributions outlined above, Ramsey
County shall contribute $282,734 as its share of the cost of
the Locke Lake Improvement project.
Fridley will provide, at its cost, any maintenance required
for the non-sediment basin portion of the Locke Lake Project.
The Watershed District will provide, at its cost, the
maintenance required for the sediment basin portion of the
Locke Lake Project.
An Equal Opportunity Empioyer
��O �
Ramsey County has already given its attorney authority to execute
these documents. Following execution by the City of Fridley, the
documents will be submitted to the Watershed District for the
appropriate signatures.
A motion authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to sign these
documents is attached to this memorandum for your review and
approval.
