<br />City of Arden Hills - Comprehensive Plan - DRAFT <br /> <br />13. PUBLIC FACILITIES, SERYICES, AND INFRASTRUCTURE <br /> <br />Goal: Provide efficient and high-quality public facilities, services, and infrastructure. <br /> <br />To achieve this public facilities, services, and infrastructure goal, the following <br />policies are proposed: <br />o Provide reliable and high-quality water facilities, sanitary sewer, and <br />stormwater systems. <br />o Prepare long-term plans to identify, prioritize, and determine the costs to <br />maintain andlor replace City water and sewer facilities. <br />o Maintain and keep the emergency preparedness plan updated. <br />o Work to provide efficient, low-cost services through ongoing evaluation and <br />intergovernmental coordination. <br />o Utilize the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and annual budgeting process for <br />prioritizing major public expenditures. <br />o Work to reduce inflow and infiltration into the City's sewer system. <br />o Coordinate with the public and private school system on programs and <br />activities where feasible. <br />o Promote the continuation of a public library within Arden Hills. <br />o Continuously evaluate all contracted services to assure that efficient and <br />high-quality services are being provided. <br /> <br />The Arden Hills City government provides a myriad of public facilities and <br />services. While some services are used or seen on a daily basis, such as <br />streets, sewer, and water, other services are less noticed though are absolutely <br />necessary for the efficient functioning of the City. <br /> <br />The City continually strives to provide services in an efficient manner. In order to <br />provide a wide array of services at a low-cost, Arden Hills has sought <br />partnerships with other cities and Ramsey County. Fire services are provided <br />through the Lake Johanna Fire Department, which provides fire services to <br />Shoreview and North Oaks in addition to Arden Hills. The Ramsey County <br />Sheriff's department provides police services to Arden Hills. In 2006, the City <br />entered into a Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Roseville for engineering <br />services, which included a part-time engineer at Arden Hills City Hall. The City <br />also has a Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Roseville for information <br />technology services, which has been in place since xxxx. <br /> <br />Since the physical infrastructure of Arden Hills is aging, the City recognizes the <br />need to track and evaluate the condition of the City's infrastructure. The Capital <br />Improvement Plan (CIP) is one tool that is used to plan for maintenance andlor <br />replacement of facilities as appropriate. <br /> <br />DRAFT <br />5/15/2008 <br /> <br />99 <br />
