SUBJECT: Lobby TV and Storage Area
Background/Discussion
At the February 19th work session, Mayor Grant discussed the quality of the lobby television and
the Council generally agreed to have staff look at alternatives for improvements. It has been
discovered that a new larger flat screen TV does not fit in the same location without some
reworking of the wall. This in turn led staff to look at solving a long term tables/chairs storage
problem.
To shorten up a long story, staff would like to discuss with the Council the idea of enclosing the
vending, coat rack and TV area and make this into a storage area mainly for the
Council/Planning Commission/PTRC work session tables and chairs. The TV could be in the
same area or could be relocated to an area near the fireplace seating area. We are looking at a TV
that is comparable to what is in the community room and upstairs conference room.
Attached is a brief email on this topic and a sketch from Building Official Dave Scherbel. Dave
will be at this work session to answer questions.

Subject:FW: Main lobby storage room
Attachments: Lobby storage .pdf
The City is currently in the process of obtaining two bids to convert the cloak/vending space into a storage room.
The current wall with the TV enclosure will be extended on both sides to enclose that area.
The TV and the wall enclosing it will be removed to maximize the storage room area.
A wider than normal door,42" wide (in order to easily move furniture in &out) is to be installed in the wall leading to
the council chambers.

FROM: Terry Maurer, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: 1838 Beckman Avenue
3rd Quarter 2012 Water Bill Appeal
Requested Action
Provide staff direction regarding the 3rd quarter water bill appeal for 1838 Beckman Avenue.
Background
As the City Council will recall, the old water meter technology was upgraded in 2012 starting
after the 2nd quarter readings. The 3rd quarter readings were, for the most part, completed using
the newly installed technology. Several questions and concerns were raised by property owners
when they received their 3rd quarter water bill. A general summary of the questions/concerns
staff received are as follows:
3Rd quarter readings were a combination of the last reading from the old technology and
the first reading from the new technology. The last reading from the old technology had
to be manually put into the system. There were a few properties where these manual
inputs had typographical errors resulting in a larger bill. These were corrected by staff.
Due to the failing status of the old technology, a reader had to be borrowed from another
municipality so the reads for the 2nd quarter of 2012 were completed about one week
early (when staff could use the borrowed reader). Because of this, the 3rd quarter of 2012
was slightly longer than normal. Staff adjusted the bills for those customers where this
extended 3rd quarter pushed them into a more expensive water level.
There were a few customers where the new technology, with the ability to graph water
usage, discovered they had a leaking appliance raising their quarterly bill.
AGENDA ITEM
MEMORANDUM
Page 2 of 2
Finally there were a number of customers that were surprised by how much water they
used for irrigation during the dry summer/fall of 2012. Again the ability to provide a
graph of the water used was very helpful.
There were no instances in all of the calls addressed by City staff where the water meter and/or
the new meter reader were found to be reading or recording inaccurately.
With this as general background, the appeal from 1838 Beckman Avenue deals with a period of
time between approximately Wednesday, September 26, 2012, and Tuesday, October 9, 2012,
where their water usage was recorded as a constant 130-135 gallons per hour. Total usage
recorded over this two week period was about 44,000 gallons (2 weeks x 24 hours/day x 130
gallons/hour). The residents have stated that this is a period of time that they were not at home
and had actually shut off their main water valve during their absence.
In an effort to respond to their concern, a Public Works employee went to the home and the
resident went through the same process they used to turn off their main water source during their
absence. The process was correctly done. As a further check, the resident checked with City
Hall staff when the water was turned back on and the reading of water use was zero during the
time that it was shut off.
With no clear way for City Hall staff to document that the water use in question did not go
through the meter we have told the resident that we are unable to make an adjustment to the 3rd
quarter water bill; thus the appeal to the City Council. Attached to this memo are the following
items:
Water bills for the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2012
Graph of water usage from late August 2012 to late January 2013
Printout of water usage from Monday, September 24th, to Thursday, October 11th
It should be noted that staff is currently dealing with a very similar situation on Arden View
Drive. This one also shows an unexplained large block of water usage. The differences are this
one is about 225 gallons an hour over a period of about two weeks while the resident was at
home. Whatever direction Council gives staff to deal with the current appeal, staff will use the
same method to deal with the Arden View Drive issue.

Background/Discussion
The City and Ramsey County have both been approached by Verizon Wireless regarding an
underserved area near our City Hall location and the possibility of a ground lease for a small
monopole tower. I asked City Planner Meagan Beekman to respond to the inquiry from Verizon
Wireless. Please see the attached emails and map from Dan Paris, Site Technician.
Meagan will be at this work session to present information on this request.

Meagan,
Thanks for the response. The first step to begin a site candidate evaluation is just what you've done: indicate a general
interest. We can do a prelinary site evaluation to make sure it will work before we consume a lot of the Council's time in
negotiations.
I would like to have one of our local agents stop by this week and take some photo shots of the city compound if you can
get approval for me. Nothing more than taking photos and few GPS readings, no soil testing or anything invasive. We will
be taking some photos of an area that Ramsey County is offering at the same time.
The advantage of a location on your city property is that the zoning for Arden Hills seems to indicate an administrative
approval rather than a CUP process. We are also looking for a tower height objective of 100', where your zoning seems to
indicate a max height of 75'. We could discuss the prospects for flexibility on height limitation after our RF engineers
review the GPS coordinates that we provide for them.
Could you and Pat perhaps review the attached aerial shot and indicate if the city may have a location preference? I'm
assuming the city would want us in the back of the parcel away from the Highway 96 corridor to minimize visibility. Alt#1
would provide the best access for us and likely lesson the distance to fiber optic cable. But if we are approved by RF to
begin discussions with the city, we really would be happy to look wherever you want to put us.
So, may we stop and take some photos, and would you suggest a preliminary location?
Thanks again Meagan,
Dan

Dan,
Pat Klaers asked me to email you back. We may be open to locating a tower site on the City
Hall property in Arden Hills. Ultimately the decision would be up to the Council. We would like
to know more about the process and any information you might be able to provide. Would a
meeting be a good first step?
Please advise,

To: Patrick Klaers, City of Arden Hills Administrator
Mr. Klaers
Verizon Wireless is engaged in a 4G enhancement project in the Metro Minneapolis/St Paul Region to
bring improved communication to some under served areas. The area surrounding your City Offices on
Hwy 96 is such an area. Our preliminary zoning review indicates that new towers are allowed through a
Planning Commission Review process in the Civic-Center zoning district if we can find no suitable
collocation prospects such as a city water tower. We did not find any existing structure within a .5 mile
search radius that would come close to our height objective of 90-120'.
My question is: Would the City engage in discussions with Verizon Wireless for a ground lease on your
city municipal property for a small monopole tower site?
Thanks very much,

supporting the proposed increase in the sales tax for the metropolitan transit system. The
attached draft letter and Resolution of support and a map of the transit system is provided by the

RE: Proposed regional sales tax for transit
Dear Majority Leader Bakk and Speaker Thissen:
Please see the attached list of members of the Regional Council of Mayors who are in support of a sales
tax increase to support sustained investment to build out and operate the metropolitan region's transit
system as defined by the Governor's Transportation Finance Advisory Committee.
The Regional Council of Mayors was formed in 2005 and provides a non-partisan platform focused on
building action strategies to raise the region's overall economic competitiveness and quality of life.
The Regional Council of Mayors believes that the development of a competitive regional transit system
is key to our region's long-term economic competitiveness and vitality. The development of a complete
and multi-modal transit system is necessary for all of our communities to provide essential mobility,
relieve congestion, attract new investment, and create jobs for all Minnesotans.
We represent a diverse set of municipalities from across the region, each with its own character and
needs. Across that diversity, we understand that the health and prosperity of our communities is linked
to that of the region. By investing in our regional transit infrastructure, the Governor's plan will help
maintain our region's economic competitiveness and allow our towns and cities to thrive. Indeed, a
recent study by the Itasca Project, an organization led by some of the region's leading CEOs, confirms
the importance of investing in transit to the region's economy. It found that building out the region's
transit network would create a return on investment of between $6.5 and $13.9 billion, or between
7.8%and 20.9%.
We believe the Governor's proposal represents an opportunity that our region cannot afford to pass up.
We urge you to join us in supporting that proposal to help fund the investments that our region needs
to thrive.
Cc: Representative Hornstein, Representative Erhardt, Senator Dibble
RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT OF A
METROPOLITAN AREA DEDICATED TRANSIT SALES TAX
WHEREAS, the Seven County Metropolitan Area ("Metro") is the economic engine for the
State of Minnesota producing approximately 75% of the state's domestic gross product; and
WHEREAS, the Metro is expected to grow by approximately 600,000 people by 2030; and
WHEREAS, the Metro has been working diligently to grow, retain and attract jobs for our state
economy; and
WHEREAS, an effective and efficient transportation system is critical to be able to
economically compete with other regions in the country and to attract new companies and
employees to our Metro region; and
WHEREAS, an effective and efficient transit system relieves congestion for highway and
roadway users, attracts new economic investments, provides an essential mobility infrastructure
for workers,businesses and students; and
WHEREAS, approximately 79% of Minnesotans believe our state would benefit from having an
expanded and improved public transit system; and 65% of Minnesotans support an increase in
the Metro area sales tax to fund transit.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Edina does hereby encourage all
Minnesota legislators to support the passage of a bill providing for a Metro wide increase in the
sales tax in order to create a reliable and sufficient transit funding source that not only keeps the
Twin Cities Metropolitan Region highly competitive with other regions but helps Minnesota
create a world class transportation system that will allow our state to compete more effectively
on a global scale and reach our full economic development potential.

James B. Hovland, Mayor of Edina

Commission and Committee:
Committee Name: Parks Trails and Recreation Committee (PTRC)
A. General Purpose for Committees and Task Forces:
While the City Council and City Staff have the sole responsibility for all activities within the City
of Arden Hills, from time to time they find it desirable, advantageous, and necessary to bring
together residents of Arden Hills in order to broaden and enrich the discussion around possible
decisions. As an example, the City Council’s ability to debate and consider far-ranging
alternatives is stifled by the risk that the mere discussion of alternatives will engender them with
undeserved merit. In addition, Arden Hills will always seek to hire the most qualified and
capable employees, but in doing so we will frequently hire staff that is not intimately connected
to the Arden Hills neighborhoods. Therefore, it is critical that the City create a mechanism where
the City Staff can get unfettered and unbiased reaction to their novel thoughts and ideas.
The Commission, Committee, and Task Forces are established to broaden and enrich the content
that will ultimately be enacted or authorized by the elected City Council.
B. Mission/Purpose:
Parks, trails, recreation and natural resources in Arden Hills increase the desirability of the city as
a place to live or work, enhance the health and well-being of citizens and guests, and improve the
value of citizens’ property. The Parks, Trails, and Recreation Committee (PTRC) represents the
interests of Arden Hills citizens in leading the continuing development, expansion, and
improvement of those resources. The PTRC recommends to the City Council actions that support
those interests; monitors the use of and the improvements in parks, trails, and recreation; and
collaborates with other City committees and commissions in improving parks and trails.
C. Goals:
ONGOING and AS NEEDED:
1. Recommend actions that advance the vision for parks, trails, and recreation.
2. Assist in identifying ongoing parks and trails maintenance/improvement priorities.
3. Recommend and review grant opportunities, sponsorships, and partnerships for parks and
trails.
4. Assist, advise, and monitor plans for parks, trails and recreation within TCAAP at the
appropriate time.
5. Continue to work with Ramsey County on mutually beneficial trail/park projects and
activities.
6. Monitor potential road improvements to encourage inclusion of pedestrian friendly
infrastructure whenever possible.
7. Look to enhance/add recreational opportunities in our parks.
8. Recommend future enhancements for the 5 year Capital Improvement Program each year.
9. Sponsor and organize Community events such as clean up day and buckthorn removal
day(s).
10. Prepare regular (every other month) articles that the Committee would like to see
highlighted in the City newsletter.

D. Committee Expectations:
While the work required of PTRC members will vary both across members and across time, the
following expectations are generally held of all committee members:
1. The interests of Arden Hills and its citizens are foremost
2. Participation of PTRC members is key to their contribution~
a. Members should be present and involved in meetings of the
committee.
b. Members should be actively engaged in discussing issues, sharing
perspectives, and raising questions that are essential to good
decision-making.
c. Effective participation derives from continually learning about
Arden Hills parks, trails, and recreation and the physical and
political environments in which they exist. This learning includes
those formal opportunities afforded by the PTRC, as well as
informal opportunities that occur in the course of one’s activities.
d. As a general guideline, members should expect to spend
approximately 3 to 4 hours per month in their work on the
committee.
3. The PTRC is a group of peers – no one member has more standing or power than
others.
4. Respect for the opinions of each other, and for those with whom the PTRC interacts,
is a hallmark of the committee’s work. Members seek clarity in presenting their
views, and represent a sense of stewardship in all that they do.
5. PTRC members engage in continual self-assessment of their performance on the
committee. As needs arise, they seek education and skills necessary to their
performance. As a collective, the committee develops changes in its composition,
structure and function as needed.
6. The PTRC provides opportunities for the education of its members, both as part of
committee meetings, and through access to educational events in other settings.
Members actively engage in this education as part of their responsibility to the
committee.
7. Some of the work of the PTRC is in areas of subjective judgment, where there is not
enough hard information to make the decisions that are necessary. Members who are
most successful in these decisions are those who are aware of the values they hold,
willing to engage in the discussion of those values, and respectful of those values
held by others that may differ from their own.
8. The PTRC is composed of individuals with diverse perspectives and experience. The
committee benefits from the contrasts that this diversity engenders, and seeks to
improve the decisions it makes and the actions it takes by understanding the conflicts
and resolving the disputes that arise in the discussion of issues and plans.
