ARDEN HILLS SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JANUARY 16, 2019 3 <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault explained if the County were to complete the water tower, the City <br />would adjust the WAC accordingly on an annual basis. <br /> <br />City Attorney Jamnik commented the City did not have to make a choice this evening regarding <br />the water tower but could state their preference. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes asked if the City was protected and that all fees would be covered by <br />SAC and WAC charges. <br /> <br />Ms. Kvilvang reported the preferred option would be Option 2, which would limit the City’s risk. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant commented on the fee schedule and asked if the fees could be adjusted by the JDA. <br /> <br />City Attorney Jamnik advised the JDA would have their own fees and could not adjust the <br />City’s fee schedule. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes believed that Exhibit F was problematic. She recommended the <br />language regarding storm drainage and snow removal services be further clarified. <br /> <br />Ms. Kvilvang commented some of the terms within the exhibits still need to be negotiated. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden questioned if a TIF district could be approved within TCAAP. <br /> <br />Ms. Kvilvang reported this could be done. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes asked if the TIF deadlines should be extended. <br /> <br />City Attorney Jamnik recommended the Council not extend the TIF deadlines at this time. He <br />commented this was a strategy matter that the Council should discuss further. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked if the number included for planning recovery costs should be <br />adjusted. <br /> <br />City Attorney Jamnik advised the number remain as is for the time being and that additional <br />costs be added in the future. He explained the AUAR would have to be updated after five years <br />and these expenses would have to be rolled into the development costs. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes stated the language within the cooperative agreement should perhaps <br />read: the current amount. <br /> <br />City Attorney Jamnik commented this could be done but anticipated this would lead to rounds <br />and rounds of negotiations with the County. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden requested clarification on the assessment language. <br />
