1. AGENDA ITEMS
A. RAMSEY COUNTY TRAFFIC ENGINEER UPDATE
Ramsey County Traffic Engineer Erin Laberee presented information on the following road
construction items:
• County Road F Roadway Project
The County has been working with Land O’Lakes to work on this project scheduled for 2018. A
center left turn lane and one through lane in each direction will be added along with a signal light
at Innovation Way. There will be a left turn lane in each direction. The portions of trail on the
south side will be reconstructed as a bituminous trail and new sections will be added. Xcel power
lines will be relocated due to the road being widened. Innovation Way will remain a private road.
• Hamline/CR 96 right on red
The “No Right On Red” sign eastbound on Hwy 96 to go southbound onto Hamline Avenue was
removed due to complaints from the public and non-compliance. No safety issues were identified
with removing the sign. An engineer from Ramsey County did some studies on length of time it
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 15, 2017 2
took to make a left turn onto Hamline Avenue from Arden View Drive and Colleen Street. He
found the average time was approximately 45 seconds. The County would like to reserve the “No
Right On Red” signs for times that there is a safety issue but they are willing to restrict rights on
red from approximately 6:00-9:00 a.m. for a trial period. They will coordinate enforcement with
the Sheriff’s Department once the sign is in place.
• Lexington Avenue Roadway Project
The developer for Lexington Station is being required to build a signal light on Lexington at the
Target entrance when their third phase is complete. Lexington Avenue from County Road E to
I694 will be reconstructed in 2020 although preliminary design work has not been done. Signal
lights will be retimed as part of the project.
• CR 96 Traffic Signal Upgrades
All signal lights on County Road 96 from Highway 61 to Hamline Avenue will be upgraded to
include flashing yellow arrows, new controllers in the cabinets, new communication fiber, and
upgraded pedestrian ramps. Signals will also be retimed. This project will be done in 2018.
Mayor David Grant stated that there have been complaints about the intersection of Lake
Johanna Boulevard and County Road E and rush hour traffic being very backed up and asked the
County to look into the issue.
B. RAMSEY COUNTY ORGANICS COLLECTION
Senior Planner Matthew Bachler stated that in 2013 the Ramsey County Board of
Commissioners approved the expansion of services at the yard waste sites in the County to
include organics collection. In 2014, Arden Hills received an application from Ramsey County to
include organic collection at the Tony Schmidt yard waste site. The application was turned down
due to concerns regarding increased litter, traffic and possible attraction of unwanted wildlife.
Mayor Grant noted that Ramsey County said they were going to be implementing curbside
collection and that was another reason the application was denied.
Senior Planner Bachler went on to say that since that time he has received several phone calls
from residents inquiring if organics collection could be added to the Arden Hills yard waste site.
Now that the program has been in place at the other County yard waste sites for three years, he
invited Ramsey County to provide an update.
Ramsey County Environmental Health Director Zach Hanson stated that the County’s master
plan states that the City should have curbside collection of organics or some provision of service
by 2018. They are backing off that requirement and revising the master plan because the
infrastructure hasn’t been put in place. The County Board has authorized six more drop off sites
around the County. They are requesting the site in Arden Hills be open year round.
Councilmember Brenda Holden wondered if most people were compliant in using compostable
bags and only dropping off organics, not other compostables.
Director Hanson responded that this is similar to what happened in the 1980’s when recycling
first started, by offering a drop off site before curbside develops. There has been very high
compliance because it is early adopters that are making the effort. Typically there would be a
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 15, 2017 3
monitor there to inquire if a particular item is acceptable. Although there has been a demand for
24/7 drop off, which at times could be non-monitored.
Councilmember Fran Holmes asked if they could address what if any problems they are having
at other sites.
Ramsey County Environmental Health Supervisor John Springman responded that since they
began operating in 2014 there has only been one occurrence of illegal dumping. Participants seem
to be engaged and responsible by using the compostable bags and bringing in non-contaminated
material. Odors are confined to within 10-15 feet of the container. Along with items being put in
bags, the containers are serviced weekly so there is not a lot of odor. The vendor is also required
to clean the container as needed. The only rodents that they have seen are squirrels on occasion.
Mayor Grant inquired about the costs of running the program.
Director Hanson responded that the costs include paying the monitor, and the contract with
Waste Management to collect the materials and bring it to the composting facility. Costs are
going down from a dollar per visit per resident to .81. Last year all facilities operated for under
$50,000. The state has mandated that the County hits a 75% recycling rate by 2030. Twenty six
percent of what is currently in the garbage is food waste, and 40% of that is organics. So to hit
recycling rates it will have to come from organics. Drop off is the first step, curbside will be
coming.
Councilmember Steve Scott noted that he would be willing to have the program run as a year
round pilot program to see if usage justifies continuing.
Councilmember Holmes stated that she’s been for it all along and doesn’t understand why some
of the Council hasn’t been agreeable.
Councilmember McClung is not actively supporting or rejecting the issue, but would agree to a
year round program as it is mandated by the State.
Councilmember Holden is willing to try the program due to history showing there have not been
issues at other sites.
Mayor Grant commented that he thinks they can try the program but he is cautious about being
open in the winter.
Director Hanson stated that they would be happy to come back with an annual report.
Senior Planner Bachler informed the Council that once the application is received from the
County they would be required to hold a public hearing with the Planning Commission for a
Conditional Use Permit. The Planning Commission would then make a recommendation and it
would be brought forward to the Council for consideration.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 15, 2017 4
C. SIMPLE RECYCLING
Senior Planner Bachler stated that as part of the 2017 work plan for the SCORE Recycling
Grant that the City received from Ramsey County, the City is required to explore textile recycling
options. The City’s current recycling provider does not pick up textiles. Staff met with Simple
Recycling, a for-profit company that specializes in curbside collection of textiles and other
housewares, and are expanding in Minnesota.
Director of Regional Municipal Partnerships, Waste Zero, Paul Gardner provided
background information on Simple Recycling. The service is free and year round, and textiles and
home goods would be picked up the same day as regular recycling. A postcard would be sent to
the residents, and an envelope with special plastic bags for placing the items. Simply Recycling
picks up the materials using a transit van, weighs them and sends a report to the City and County.
The City would receive a penny a pound for the material, or $20 a ton. Most haulers are neutral or
supportive and don’t want clothing in their recycling by mistake. The national average shows
eighty five percent of our clothing still goes in the garbage, despite people donating to charity.
The average collection is 10 pounds per household. The program does requires a 4-5 year
contract.
Mayor Grant asked if pick up was necessary every week.
Mr. Gardner replied that the company has made a strategic choice to run the entire route on
every recycling day. If pick up was only once a month, people tend to forget and numbers go
down. The business model of the resident calling an organization for pick up is expensive
compared to driving the entire route each recycling day.
Councilmember Holmes commented that she feels Arden Hills residents would donate nicer
usable items to charity and use this service for less desirable clothing items.
Mr. Gardner noted that Simple Recycling’s philosophy is to put the material to the highest and
best use. They have a grading facility where they determine what could be sold in a thrift store
and what could be sold to international markets. Some material has no resale value and is
repurposed into insulation, mattress padding etc.
Councilmember Dave McClung wondered how much a program like this is capturing of the
percent that is going into the landfill.
Mr. Gardner stated that if this increased the percentage in the Metro area by one or two percent
that would be substantial. Over the last four years, three million pounds have been collected in
the states they are operating in. He noted that for every bag that is picked up, Simple Recycling
will leave two. Templates are available for newsletters, handouts, and websites for educational
purposes.
Mayor Grant, at the approval of the Council, instructed Staff to move forward with the necessary
meetings and contract details.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 15, 2017 5
D. 2017 STATE OF THE CITY
This item was moved and was discussed following item 1E.
E. 2017 PTRC WORK PLAN AND PROJECT PRIORITIES DISCUSSION
Mayor Grant invited members of the PTRC to the table and asked everyone to introduce
themselves.
PTRC Chair Rich Straumann and members of the committee presented a Powerpoint highlighting
their goals and work plan priorities for the Parks, Trails and Recreation Committee for 2017.
The proposed list of priorities for their 2017 work plan are:
1. Parks Goals
2. Trail Goals
3. Recreation Goals
4. Community Partnership Goals
5.
The Council discussed various items of interest such as trails and future projects with the PTRC
members.
F. 2017 STATE OF THE CITY
Senior Planner Bachler said the Economic Development Committee (EDC) recommended that
two events be held this year, one in the morning oriented toward businesses, and an evening event
geared toward residents. The EDC recommended transportation, development projects, and
TCAAP as possible topics for the morning meeting along with having a representative from the
business community speak. It was also suggested that the Council consider a different venue for
the morning event. Staff spoke with the Tavern Grill and they are happy to host if selected.
Councilmember Holden said she feels the residents want the same type of information as the
business community.
Senior Planner Bachler said there would be a lot of overlap in topics for the two events. The
EDC suggested inviting Land O’Lakes to the morning event.
Councilmember McClung requested the presentation be put together in such a way that it would
be interesting to all residents, whether they are businesses or home residents. He suggested that a
networking event for businesses could be a separate event.
The consensus was to plan two sessions, and preference was to hold one on a Thursday and one
the following week on a Tuesday. Tentatively Thursday, September 28 and Tuesday, October 3.
The morning session at the Tavern Grill was agreeable and the evening session could be held in
the Council chambers.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 15, 2017 6
G. CUMMINGS PARK SIGN
Mayor Grant suggested a proposal for a new sign be submitted, to look similar to the signs at the
other parks.
H. HIGHWAY 96 TREES
Mayor Grant noted there are gaps in the trees along Highway 96 that would need to be replaced.
Councilmember McClung said that we need to find out what kind of tree would be successful
and develop a canopy along the road.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Sue Polka said she would get proposals and bring them
to the Council.
2. COUNCIL/STAFF COMMENTS
Councilmember Holden requested that once the right on red sign goes up on Highway 96 and
Hamline that the Council be told so they can write a letter to the Sheriff asking them to enforce it.
She also wondered if the Hot Dog with a Deputy events could be held at different city parks next
year instead of the County park.
Councilmember Scott mentioned that he will be taking a tour of Public Works facility.
Councilmember Holmes discussed her desire to have another alternate to the Planning
Commission and changing the ordinance to reflect two alternates.
Councilmember McClung noted that the Public Works staff did a great job on patching Highway
96 after the water main break, as well as the water main break in his neighborhood.

6. PULLED CONSENT ITEMS
A. Motion to Approve Proposal for Professional Services with Bolton & Menk,
Inc. – Lift Station 11
Councilmember Holmes asked why Bolton & Menk were requesting additional fees for this
project.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Polka explained she came onto this project in the middle
and understood staff was not given a chance to review the plans and specifications. For this
reason, there were several items that were not included in the plans for standardized lift station
designs. In addition, there were easement issues and extra time was spent moving an Xcel Energy
pole. She believed the requested amount was fair for the extra work that was completed.
MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a
motion to Approve Proposal for Professional Services with Bolton & Menk,
Inc. – Lift Station 11. The motion carried (5-0).
7. PUBLIC HEARINGS

8. NEW BUSINESS
A. Planning Case 17-011 – 3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive – HealthPartners –
Master and Final PUD
Senior Planner Bachler stated Health Partners Medical Group has requested a Master and Final
PUD in order to complete an 8,531-square foot building addition at their existing medical clinic.
The current building is approximately 26,537 square feet in size. The addition would be
constructed on the western end of the building and include a new secondary entrance to the clinic.
The expansion of the building will allow for additional primary care providers to be added to the
site, as well as specialty medical providers that are not currently located at the Arden Hills clinic.
The proposal also includes updating the current wall signage and constructing 41 additional
parking stalls, most of which would be located on the north side of the building.
Senior Planner Bachler explained the existing medical clinic was approved through the Site Plan
Review process in 1990 (Planning Case 90-02). There have been no significant modifications to
the site since then. The Special Requirements for the I-Flex District in the Zoning Code requires
that proposals for new construction, redevelopment of a site, or significant modifications to
existing sites use the PUD or Conditional Use Permit process. The site is comprised of two lots,
3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive, but it functions as one continuous development. The existing
medical clinic and most of the parking stalls that serve the building are located on 3930
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 4
Northwoods Drive. A small portion of the parking area and a regional stormwater pond are
located on the 3928 Northwoods Drive parcel. The proposed PUD would cover both lots.
Senior Planner Bachler reviewed the Plan Evaluation and offered the following Findings of
Fact:
1. The subject property is comprised of two lots: 3930 Northwoods Drive and 3928
Northwoods Drive.
2. The property at 3930 Northwoods Drive is located in the I-Flex District and the property at
3928 Northwoods Drive is located in the B-3 – Service Business District.
3. The City previously approved a Special Use Permit and Site Plan Review in Planning Case
90-002 for the construction and operation of a medical clinic on the subject property.
4. Section 1320.12 – Special Requirements for the I-Flex District of the Zoning Code states
that proposals for new construction, redevelopment of a site, or significant modifications
to existing sites shall use the Planned Unit Development (PUD) or Conditional Use Permit
process.
5. The applicant has requested a Master and Final PUD in order to complete an 8,531-square
foot addition to the existing building and to expand the parking area by 41 stalls.
6. The Master and Final PUD are in substantial conformance with the requirements of the
Zoning Code.
7. Where the plan is not in conformance with the Zoning Code, flexibility has been requested
by the applicant and/or conditions have been placed on an approval that would mitigate the
nonconformity.
8. The subject property is located in Sign District 7 and is permitted 45 square feet of wall
signage.
9. The City previously approved a Site Plan Review in Planning Case 07-017 for additional
wall signage for the subject property with a total area of 233.3 square feet.
10. The applicant has requested a Sign Standard Adjustment through the PUD process for a
total of 692.5 square feet of wall signage for the subject property.
11. Flexibility through the PUD process has been requested in the following areas: parking lot
planting islands, minimum number of off-street parking spaces, and wall signage.
12. The Master and Final PUD are in conformance with the Arden Hills 2030 Comprehensive
Plan. The subject property is guided for Mixed Business. The Mixed Business land use
category is applied to areas designated for a variety of businesses, including commercial,
certain light industrial uses, warehousing, office, general business, and retail.
13. The application is not anticipated to create a negative impact on the immediate area or the
community as a whole.
Senior Planner Bachler stated the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval (4-0) of
Planning Case 17-011 for a Master and Final PUD at 3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive, based on
the findings of fact and the submitted plans in the May 22, 2017, Report to the City Council, as
amended by the following ten (10) conditions:
1. The project shall be completed in accordance with the submitted plans as amended by the
conditions of approval. Any significant changes to these plans, as determined by the City
Planner, shall require review and approval by the Planning Commission and the City
Council.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 5
2. The Developer shall obtain the required development permits within one year of the
approval date or the approval shall expire, unless extended by the City Council prior to the
approval’s expiration date. Extension requests must be submitted in writing to the City at
least 45 days prior to the expiration date.
3. A Master PUD and Final PUD Development Agreement shall be prepared by the City
Attorney and subject to City Council approval. The Agreement shall be executed prior to
the issuance of any development permits.
4. The Developer shall submit a financial surety in the amount of 125 percent of the
estimated costs of site improvements including grading, utilities, and paving, prior to the
issuance of any development permits. The financial surety shall be in the form of a letter
of credit issued by a FDIC-insured bank, and be in a form acceptable to the City. The
purpose of the letter of credit is to ensure that site improvements are completed in the
event that the developer defaults on the Development Agreement.
5. The Developer shall submit a cash escrow in the amount of 25 percent of the estimated
costs of site improvements including grading, utilities, and paving, prior to the issuance of
any development permits. The escrow will be used for City costs related to review,
approval, and inspection of site improvements or any costs incurred by the City in the
event of a developer default.

that the developer defaults on the Development Agreement. The City will hold the letter of
credit for two years after the installation of landscaping. The letter of credit should not
expire during the two-year period.
7. The Developer shall submit a cash escrow in the amount of 25 percent of the estimated
costs of landscaping prior to the issuance of any development permits. The escrow will be
held by the City for two years after installation of landscaping and used for City costs
related to review, approval, and inspection of landscaping, or developer default.
8. The Developer shall provide the City with a copy of the Rice Creek Watershed District
permit for the project prior to the issuance of any development permits.
9. Final grading, drainage, utility, and site plans shall be subject to approval by the City
Engineer, Building Official, City Planner, and Fire Marshall prior to the issuance of a
Grading and Erosion Control Permit or other development permits.
10. The Developer shall provide “No Parking” signs for the area designated for fire truck turn
around on the northeast side of the building.
Councilmember Holden asked if there would be exterior lighting for the new parking area.
Senior Planner Bachler clarified there would be lighting for the new parking area.
Mayor Grant requested further information on the stacked stone veneer.
Senior Planner Bachler referred this question to the architect.
Mark Hansen, Mohagen Hansen, explained he has been working with Health Partners on this
project. He reported the stacked cultured stone was roughly two to three inches in depth and
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 6
would complement the existing building materials. He indicated this synthetic product was used
throughout the industry in a variety of colors and textures.
Councilmember Scott questioned how the stacked stone product would wear over time.
Mr. Hansen reported this was a very durable product and was comparable to concrete. He stated
this product was being used more than natural brick due to cost.
Mayor Grant asked if the City had an elevation or view of the building from I-694.
Senior Planner Bachler provided the Council with a picture of the building from this elevation.
Councilmember Holden believed the addition and proposed signage would complement the
clinic well.
Mayor Grant inquired if the Health Partners logo would show on the cultured stone.
Mr. Hansen reported the wall signage would be pin mounted letters and would be lit. He
believed the sign would complement the stone nicely.
Councilmember Holden stated she was at this clinic on a weekly basis and she did not believe
there was a parking shortage.
Senior Planner Bachler indicated he was comfortable with the parking reduction and noted the
Planning Commission supported the proposed parking as well.
Mayor Grant asked if there were opportunities for additional parking if Health Partners were to
vacate the building and another use took over the space.
Senior Planner Bachler stated it appeared there was additional space for parking on the property.
Councilmember Holden questioned when construction would begin on the Health Partners
Clinic. She expressed concern with the high level of traffic already in this area.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Polka explained she was uncertain as to Health Partners
construction timeframe.
Mr. Hansen anticipated construction would begin the end of July or beginning of August.
Councilmember McClung indicated the sign copy on this building was proposed to triple.
While he understood the building was being added onto, he stated he would not be able to support
this proposal because of the amount of proposed wall signage.
MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Mayor Grant seconded a motion to
recommend approval of Planning Case 17-011 for a Master and Final PUD at
3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive, based on the findings of fact and submitted
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 7
plans, as amended by the ten (10) conditions in the May 22, 2017, Report to
the City Council.
Councilmember McClung proposed an addition Condition 11 which would limit the wall
signage to 500 square feet.
AMENDMENT: Councilmember McClung requested an amendment to the motion to
add Condition 11, limiting the wall signage for the Health Partners
Clinic to 500 square feet. The amendment failed for lack of a second.
Councilmember Holmes stated she fully supported the request and believed the proposed
improvements would be a nice addition to the clinic.
Mayor Grant agreed the proposed enhancements and signage would improve the clinics
visibility.
Councilmember Holden called the question.
The motion carried 4-1 (McClung opposed).
B. Rice Creek Watershed District Maintenance Agreement for Stormwater
Management Facilities – 3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive
Senior Planner Bachler stated Health Partners has requested a Master and Final PUD in order to
complete a building addition and parking lot expansion at their existing medical clinic located at
3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive. There is an existing stormwater pond on the subject property
that serves the development as well as other properties on Northwoods Drive. A Grant of
Permanent Easement for the stormwater pond was signed by the City and Health Partners in 2010.
Under the easement, the City is responsible for maintaining the non-landscaped portion of the
stormwater pond, including the inlet and outlet structures and removal of debris.
Senior Planner Bachler explained the proposed Health Partners project requires a permit from
the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD). One of the conditions of approval for the RCWD
permit is that an updated Maintenance Agreement for the existing stormwater pond be approved.
Since the City is responsible for the pond’s maintenance under the Grant of Permanent Easement,
the Maintenance Agreement would be between the City and RCWD. Maintenance of these
facilities is required by the City’s Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Storm Water Pollution
Prevention Permit (SWPPP). It is also consistent with Public Works policies to adequately
maintain infrastructure.
MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a
motion to approve the Maintenance Agreement for Stormwater Management
Facilities between the Rice Creek Watershed District and City of Arden Hills
for the regional stormwater pond located at 3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive.
The motion carried (5-0).
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 8
C. Planning Case 17-012 – 4255-4295 Lexington Avenue – CSM – Master and
Final PUD
Senior Planner Bachler stated CSM Corporation owns the Arden Hills Corporate Center located
at Lexington Avenue North and Cummings Park Drive. The 16.6-acre site is comprised of four
lots that were created through subdivisions granted by the City in 1995 and 1999. There are a total
of four existing buildings on the site, with the buildings at 4293 and 4295 Lexington Avenue
sharing a common wall. The development today functions as a single entity with the four lots
sharing common access driveways, utilities, stormwater management, and parking.
Senior Planner Bachler reported the Arden Hills Corporate Center was previously part of the
Control Data site, which included the subject four lots and a portion of what is now the Boston
Scientific campus located to the south of Cummings Park Drive. A PUD was previously approved
in 1996 for Control Data and included a portion of the existing Arden Hills Corporate Center.
This PUD is no longer in effect and the site currently does not operate under any special
agreements with the City.
Senior Planner Bachler explained in 2015, the City approved a Site Plan Review and Variance
in Planning Case 15-003 permitting CSM to construct 22 parking stalls at 4293 Lexington
Avenue. The additional parking stalls were never constructed and the approval has since expired.
A Variance was needed in this case to allow the parking area to encroach within the five-foot
setback from the side property line. Staff has recommended that CSM apply for the proposed
parking expansion through the PUD process given that the properties currently function as a single
entity and in order to clean up the past planning case history for the site. The proposal would
include new parking stalls located in several areas throughout the properties. Parking would be
accessible to all tenants within the development:
• 14 stalls along the western side of 4295 Lexington Avenue
• 8 stalls in the northwestern corner of 4293 Lexington Avenue
• 22 stalls along the southwestern side of 4293 Lexington Avenue
• 15 stalls in the northwestern corner of 4255 Lexington avenue
Senior Planner Bachler reviewed the Plan Evaluation and offered the following Findings of
Fact:
1. The applicant is requesting approval of a Master Planned Unit Development (PUD) and
Final PUD at their Arden Hills Corporate Center located at 4255, 4265, 4293, and 4295
Lexington Avenue North.
2. The purpose of the PUD is to reconfigure the parking on the properties to allow for
additional stalls to be added.
3. The PUD process allows for flexibility within the City’s regulations through a negotiated
process with a developer.
4. The CSM properties are comprised of a total of 16.6 acres.
5. The CSM properties are located at 4255, 4265, 4293 and 4295 Lexington Avenue North.
6. The CSM properties are located in the I-1 – Limited Industrial District.
7. The proposed use is a permitted use in the I-1 – Limited Industrial District.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 9
8. The Master and Final PUD are in substantial conformance with the requirements set forth
in the City’s Zoning Code and design standards.
9. Where the plan is not in conformance with the City’s Zoning Code, flexibility has been
requested by the applicant.

properties are guided for Light Industrial and Office (I/O). The I/O area is designated for a
broad range of light industrial uses such as warehousing with manufacturing and office.
Senior Planner Bachler stated the Planning Commission recommends approval of Planning Case
17-012 for a Master PUD and Final PUD at 4255, 4265, 4293, 4295 Lexington Avenue North,
based on the findings of fact and the submitted plans in the May 22, 2017, Report to the City
Council, as amended by the following nine (9) conditions:
1. The project shall be completed in accordance with the submitted plans as amended by the
conditions of approval. Any significant changes to these plans, as determined by the City
Planner, shall require review and approval by the Planning Commission and City Council.
2. The applicant shall obtain a permit within one year of the approval or the approval shall
expire unless extended by the City Council prior to the approval’s expiration date.
Extension requests must be submitted in writing to the City at least 45 days prior to the
expiration date.
3. A PUD Agreement shall be prepared by the City Attorney and subject to City Council
approval. The PUD Agreement shall be executed prior to the issuance of any development
permits.
4. The applicant shall submit a financial surety in the amount of 125 percent of the estimated
costs of landscaping prior to the issuance of any development permits. The financial surety
shall be in the form of a letter of credit issued by a FDIC-insured bank. The letter of credit
shall automatically renew for successive one-year terms unless at least sixty (60) days
prior to the next annual renewal date, the issuing bank delivers notice to the City that it
intends to modify the terms of, or cancel, the letter of credit. A partial reduction in the
letter of credit may be granted by the City in the event that landscaping improvements are
installed over successive growing seasons. The purpose of the letter of credit is to ensure
that landscaping is completed in the event that the developer defaults on the PUD
Agreement.
5. The applicant shall submit a cash escrow for landscaping improvements in the amount of
$10,000 prior to the issuance of any development permits. The escrow will be held by the
City for two years after installation of landscaping and used for City costs related to
review, approval, and inspection of landscaping, or developer default.
6. The project may require permits, including, but not limited to, MPCA-NPDES, Rice Creek
Watershed District, Minnesota Department of Health, Ramsey County and City Right of
Way, and City Grading and Erosion Control permits. Copies of all issued permits shall be
provided to the City prior to the issuance of any development permits.
7. Final grading, drainage, utility, and site plans shall be subject to approval by the Public
Works Director, City Engineer, and City Planner prior to the issuance of a grading and
erosion control permit or other development permits.

corner of the 4255 Lexington Avenue building, running underground to the garage/storage
building located at 4293 Lexington Avenue.
9. The applicant shall conform to all other City regulations.
Councilmember Holmes expressed concern with the number of trees that would be lost. She
understood that a nice mix of trees would be replanted; however these would be quite small when
compared to the trees that would be lost. She asked if this property had a need for more parking.
Senior Planner Bachler understood there was a need from the tenants for more parking.
Councilmember Holmes questioned if Boston Scientific could be approached to provide shared
parking in order to assist in saving more mature trees.
Senior Planner Bachler stated a shared parking agreement would have to be worked out between
the two private parties.
Mayor Grant indicated the additional parking stalls were required because of the creation of
additional jobs.
Senior Planner Bachler explained CSM has tenants at this corporate center that have requested
more parking than the site currently has.
Councilmember Holden agreed it was horrible to see mature oak trees taken down; however,
there were not a lot of options available for this property. She noted the site would have a large
number of replacement trees and in time the site would have more caliper inches than it currently
has. She suggested more red oak trees be replanted on the site.
Mayor Grant also did not like losing mature oak trees but he agreed the site was planned in the
best possible manner to meet the needs of the tenants. He understood oak trees grew slowly. He
believed the site would have a short-term loss, but would have a long-term gain. He asked the
applicant to come forward at this time to further discuss tree planting options.
Mark Kronbeck, Alliant Engineering, discussed the tree plan with the Council. He described the
location of a power line on the property noting smaller trees would have to be selected for this
area. He reported seven red oak trees would be replanted.
Councilmember Holmes asked if the applicant had spoken with Boston Scientific about shared
parking.
Mr. Kronbeck was not aware of any type of agreement between these two parties.
Councilmember Scott stated he also liked trees but felt it was more important to attract and
retain businesses. He anticipated that surface parking would have to be relied upon given the lack
of public transportation for this area. He questioned if the trees being taken down would be
repurposed.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 11
Mr. Kronbeck stated he could pursue this.
Councilmember Holden inquired how many oak trees would remain on the site.
Mr. Kronbeck discussed the location of the remaining oak trees on the site plan.
MOTION: Councilmember McClung moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a
motion to approve Planning Case 17-012 for a Master and Final PUD at 4255,
4265, 4293, 4295 Lexington Avenue North, based on the findings of fact and
submitted plans, as amended by the nine (9) conditions in the May 22, 2017,
Report to the City Council.
Councilmember McClung stated he was not happy to see the loss of trees but stated he
understood there was a parking deficiency and he wanted to support the businesses in Arden Hills.
Mayor Grant believed no one on the Council supported the tree loss.
The motion carried (5-0).

FROM: William S. Joynes, Sr., City Administrator
SUBJECT: Interim Director of Administrative Services/Finance Director
Background
As Council is aware, Sue Iverson has been granted an extended leave of absence that will likely
continue through most of the summer. During this time we have the normal budget process to
manage and a number of other finance and administrative tasks that need attention. They include
the initiation of utility rate studies, the development of a comprehensive communications
program, and review of our internal record keeping system and IT functions. We have been
fortunate to have Dave Perrault on staff serving as our Finance Analyst the last several years. He
would be my recommendation to fill the position of Interim Director of Administrative Services /
Finance Director, effective June 1, 2017. Dave holds a Master’s degree in Business
Administration and a Master’s degree in Public Administration and has served the City well
since his hire.
Recommended Action
Appoint David Perrault as Interim Director of Administrative Services / Finance Director,
effective June 1, 2017. I recommend his salary to be set at $7,084 per month and that he be
vested with all responsibility and oversight appropriate for this position.

SUBJECT: School Zone Signs
Requested Action
Authorize the purchase and installation of two speed display signs for the CR E2 school zone
from in the amount of $18,250.00.
Discussion
At the January City Council work session, staff presented a school zone sign option (Attachment
A) for the school zone adjacent to Valentine Hills Elementary School (Attachment B). This sign
states that the lower speed limit is in effect when the sign is flashing and registers the speeds of
the cars only during that specific school zone time. If a car is going over the speed limit the
actual speed limit flashes as well to alert the driver of a violation. During non-school zone times,
the lights do not flash and the speed does not display. This sign is more effective in that it is
only operating during school times and catches the driver’s attention for that specific reason.
Staff has received quotes for purchase and installation of the signs. WSB provided a quote in the
amount of $10,500.00 for the signs (Attachment C). This amount includes the display, solar kit,
and operational training for staff. Staff is recommending approval of Safety Signs to complete
the installation, which includes pedestal pole and base, pole foundations, speed zone signage,
and labor in the amount of $7,500.00 (Attachment D). A second quote for the installation was
received in the amount of $8,625.00. The total amount for the recommended school zone
installation is $18,250. Funding is available in the Streets Operating Budget.

In the summer of 2016, City staff had determined that 1107 linear feet of concrete curb and
gutter replacement was necessary on Pleasant Drive (Attachment A). Several of the residents
were complaining due to the design of the curb blocking drainage from side yard swales. With
the change in staff, the work was not completed in 2016. The concrete curb and gutter has
deteriorated and is in need of replacement.
Discussion
Quotes were received from Norsk Concrete Construction, Inc. and Midwest Concrete Services,
Inc. Norsk submitted the lowest quote at $38,745.00 (Attachment B). Midwest’s quote was
$82,500.00
Funding is available in the Storm Water budget.

SUBJECT: Large Area Mower Purchase
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Sources:
$40,000 $71,949.12 Equipment Replacement Fund
Requested Action
Authorize the purchase of a Toro large area mower from MTI Distributing, Inc. in the amount of
$71,949.12, which includes the trade in of the City’s 1999 Jacobson mower in the amount of
$6,000.00.
Discussion
The 2017 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) includes an item for the replacement of the 1999 large
area mower (Unit 433). A copy of the detailed sheet from the CIP is attached (Attachment A).
The City accepted the donation of the 1999 mower from the Mounds View School District in
Repair costs for parts and labor between 2009 and 2016 total $14,471.62. A photo of the
Jacobson mower is included in Attachment B.
The 2017 CIP has an estimated budget for the purchase of the new mower of $40,000. The
pricing quote (Attachment C) shows a purchase price from MTI Distributing, Inc. of $71,949.12,
with the $6,000.00 trade-in of the 1999 mower, which is $31,949.12 over the estimated budget.
The pricing provided in the quotes are as listed in the Minnesota State contract. The cost for the
dump trunk that was approved at the April 10, 2017 council meeting came in $42,647.60 under
the proposed budget. The new machine provides an 11’ cut width as does the current mower. It
also has a totally enclosed cab which provides a better environment for the operator as well as
improved safety features such as brake lights and turn signals. The mower also comes with a
mulching kit for fall clean up.

DATE: June 12, 2017
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: William S. Joynes, Sr., City Administrator
SUBJECT: Civic Site Proposal for Professional Services
Background
The City has the opportunity to develop a 1.6-acre site within the proposed Rice Creek
Commons development. The site offers an opportunity for major civic presence for the City.
Possible programming may include a City Hall, community center, or similar public facility.
The City has 2 years from the approval of the Master Development Agreement to complete a
shovel-ready plan for the proposed civic site.
Discussion
Staff prepared a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit an architectural firm to 1) conduct a
lifecycle and maintenance assessment of the existing City Hall; 2) prepare a conceptual design,
cost estimate and facilitate community engagement for the civic site; and 3) as an alternate,
assessment of space needs of the Public Works facility.
Six architectural firms submitted proposals with fees ranging from $21,800 to $209,720. After
review of the proposals, staff conducted four interviews and is proposing that the Council
approve the firm of Hamel, Green and Abrahamson, Inc. (HGA) to complete the work. HGA has
extensive experience with similar projects.
Recommended Action
Staff would recommend Council authorize the City Administrator to enter into a professional
services agreement with HGA in the amount of $21,800 for City Hall assessment, Civic Site
conceptual design and community engagement, and Public Works facility assessment.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Arden Hills has the opportunity to develop a 1.6
acre parcel within the proposed four square mile Twin Cities
Army Ammunition Plant (TCAAP) development, known as the
Rice Creek Commons. The designated parcel, located in the
Civic District, offers a significant and unique opportunity for a
major civic presence for the City. Possible programs may include
a new City Hall, community center, or similar public facility.
We understand that amending the City of Arden Hills’ 2030
Comprehensive Plan with the TCAAP Master Plan will integrate
the Rice Creek Commons Development with the City - ensuring a
true benefit to the community through environmentally sensitive
and economically sustainable development. The TCAAP
Redevelopment Code and Regulating Plan will ensure:
}Walkable, mixed-use, resilient and vibrant development
}Recognized community design principles
}Pedestrian priority and pedestrian friendly frontages
The City of Arden Hills understands that the Civic Building at the
heart of this development is truly an important and significant
opportunity for the city and the community.
Team Approach & Work Plan
The City of Arden Hills is committed to an organized and
strategic approach to this development opportunity. To facilitate
thoughtful decision making, the City is seeking a consultant
team that will:
1. Provide quantitative information about existing buildings
2. Seek input and identify trends through a community
engagement process
3. Explore unique programs and design opportunities for the
site and civic building
4. Provide budgetary data for development options. Site
assessment and concept design opportunities should be
informed by forward-looking sustainable design practices
which exemplify environmental stewardship.
Situated between broad community input and the policy
decisions by City Council is the City appointed Civic Site
Task Force (CSTF). HGA will meet at regular intervals with
the CSTF to share and review progress in all areas of project
scope, discuss findings together, plan and adjust next steps as
needed, and review/validate that the HGA team is proceeding in
accordance with their direction.
At the end of this project scope, it is HGA’s commitment to
provide the City of Arden Hills a thorough and comprehensive
set of reports, drawings, and diagrams for each focus area
noted above. The final report and documents will be deemed
successful if they substantively inform, illuminate, and justify a
visionary plan for the TCAAP civic site that is embraced by all
stakeholders.
PROJECT APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY
PHASE 1
Project Team – Roles and Responsibilities
The desired scope of services necessitates a collaborative team
of design professionals to provide exceptional rigor and quality
in every detail. HGA proposes a team of design professionals
who have all worked together on prior projects and have been
carefully selected to serve this scope of work. Each primary
scope task will be served by the best and most appropriate
experts who will, in turn, coordinate their work with the broader
team. Overall coordination and scope completion will be led by
Jennifer McMaster, our project manager.
City Hall Assessment
A comprehensive assessment of the condition and value of City
Hall can be divided into two primary areas of focus:
1. Physical Plant: This is a thorough assessment of the
building structure, enclosure, and the various engineering/
operating systems that support the facility. This assessment
will determine the current state of these systems, life cycle
analysis, and short to long term maintenance requirements.
The analysis will begin with a ½ day on-site evaluation by the
entire HGA engineering and architecture team. This full team
integration event allows for a highly detailed introduction
to the building in a collaborative setting where design
professionals can compare, contrast, and coordinate findings
in real time.
2. Programmatic Fit: In addition the physical condition of
the building, the ability of the building to serve its many
programmatic functions now and in the future is a key
determinant in the assessment of City Hall. The building’s
ability to support the diverse work of city staff, to welcome and
serve the citizens of Arden Hills, and to express the identity of
Arden Hills are all included in this evaluation. Ted Redmond,
with support from Victor Pechaty, will lead this analysis using
the tools of: on-site observation, staff interviews, review of
existing building plans, and benchmarking the Arden Hills
City Hall against current and future city hall programming.
A comparison of outcomes from each analysis will determine
the functional/programmatic appropriateness of the facility
now and in the future.

PHASE 2
Community Engagement and Site Assessment/Concept Design
In HGA’s experience, there are many advantages to combining
the community engagement and concept design scope as
parallel and fully integrated efforts. Alternating community
engagement events with the concept design options allows the
community input to inform design at each step in the process.
At each design step, progress is shared with city staff, key city
leadership committees, and community members for review and
comment. Guided by the CSTF at each step, the design begins to
manifest the collective input of all stakeholder groups as a true
representation of a unique Arden Hills vision.
The unique attributes of this project suggest that the most
beneficial community engagement plan would meet several
goals:
1. Build awareness of the unique project opportunity for
a signature civic building intended to serve the growing
population of Arden Hills
2. Share knowledge of innovative civic programming (city halls,
community centers, unique combinations) through regional/
national examples
3. Invite input through small group, large group, and on-line
community facilitation, pose strategic questions to identify
desired programs and uses for the new civic site
4. Identify trends and seek consensus in comments, ideas, and
preferences being shared in community forums
5. Input = Design: Community engagement process are only
successful if the community participants clearly see that
their input has become the foundation for proposed uses and
design options for the civic site. Recognizing the collective
community voice in the development planning is the ultimate
validation. The end goal of a community engagement process
is to build support and empower ambassadors for the project
to the greater community.
Victor Pechaty, with support from Ted Redmond, will lead the
community engagement and site assessment/concept design
process. Community engagement events will alternate with
design options that become more specific and refined after each
series of stakeholder meetings. Input by all stakeholders at
incremental steps in the design process creates a feedback loop
between community input and design leading to a consensus-
based design solution. A proposed outline for this process is as
follows:
“C” notation identifies Community items, “D” notation identifies
Design items
C.1 City Staff interviews & on site observations
C.2 Community Open House 1: Visioning Workshop
D.1 Design Phase – Complete site assessment and create

Throughout the process, HGA will provide comprehensive
meeting notes and supporting drawings and diagrams to share
with community in publicly accessible media (City of Arden
Hills website portal or project specific website. On-line options
for providing continuing public feedback is an asset to the
community engagement process.
HGA will provide Cost Estimating and sustainability planning as
part of Phase 1 and Phase 2 services.
Cost Estimating
HGA’s services include an in-house cost-estimating team. Phase
1 will include cost estimating to reflect maintenance and life-
cycle issues identified in the City Hall assessment. Phase 2 will
include conceptual cost estimating for concept design.
HGA estimating processes are based on cross-referencing
multiple data points to achieve estimating accuracy. Sources of
estimating data include:
1. National database of construction cost trends and projected
construction cost escalation based on broad economic
indicators.
2. An HGA database that has tracked construction costs for all
HGA projects. This database includes several decades of data
across multiple project types and construction markets.
3. HGA estimators share a contractor background. If desired,
Cost estimates are reviewed and vetted with local market
contractors as peers who are bidding and constructing
projects concurrently with this project scope.
Sustainability and Climate Action Planning
Leading-edge sustainability planning can and should be based
on the foundational USGBC LEED or Minnesota B3 platforms.
While these platforms remain the cornerstone of sustainability
strategy, comprehensive sustainability planning should transcend
these metrics. HGA’s approach to sustainability expands into
the operational and behavioral aspects of the Well Building
Challenge and plans for the future through understanding the
sustainability interface of building/site/community Resiliency
and Climate Action Planning.
The Sustainability Programming effort is focused on establishing
clear energy efficiency, resilience, and sustainability goals
appropriate for the project. This is a process of reviewing the
range of sustainability, energy efficiency, renewable energy,
and resilience adaptation strategies and potentials available to
the project and prioritizing those goals which are best suited
to this project’s specific functions, existing facilities, and site
characteristics. The effort will use the Minnesota Sustainable
Building Guidelines as a frame work of the dialogue between the
design team and the City of Arden Hills. Owner/Team dialogue
on sustainability options will be facilitated by the Sustainability
Matrix, a working document tracking sustainability options,
potential costs, and economic, energy efficiency, and
environmental “pay back”.
MN Sustainable Building Guidelines – B3 & SB2030
B3 is a set of sustainable design guidelines that emphasize
exceeding state energy code energy efficiency requirements,
achieving the lowest possible lifetime costs, enhancing the health,
well-being and productivity of the building occupants, improving
the quality of the natural environment, and considering the long-
term operating costs of the building.
Projects using the B3 Guidelines automatically apply the
Sustainable Building (SB) 2030 Energy Standard which
currently requires that energy use is 70 percent below an average
building. The goal of the program is to get to net zero energy use
in 2030. We have extensive experience in the strategies that need
to be used to reach these aggressive energy goals. An integrated
multi-disciplinary approach is increasingly important to achieve
these goals through the building exterior envelope, and careful
incorporation of the mechanical and electrical systems into the
design. The SB 2030 energy standard is based on EUI (Energy
Use Intensity).
Energy use prediction for each Conceptual Energy Modeling option
HGA’s design for the new Brooklyn Park Library was designed to meet
B3 v2.2 and SB2030, meeting the 60% less energy than that of an
average building.

Thorough building assessments provide
our clients the needed information to
make thoughtful and strategic facility
decisions. HGA is committed to an
integrated, multi-disciplinary approach to
building assessments. Architects review
systems such as building exterior envelope,
roofing, code compliance and accessibility.
Simultaneously, HGA engineers review
civil/utility, structural, mechanical and
electrical systems. Beyond the technical
analysis, HGA’s approach includes a
review of programmatic fit. How does the
building serve the programs and purposes
intended? Does the facility support and
enhance the building owner’s ability
to house programs? HGA’s building
assessments of public structures include
a diverse range of scale and programs.
From the Minnesota State Capitol and
the historic Union Depot, to the Hennepin
County Government Center to the New
Brighton Community Library.

RAMSEY COUNTY LIBRARY | NEW BRIGHTON LIBRARY
FEASIBILITY STUDY | New Brighton, Minnesota
HGA worked with Ramsey County Library to develop a
Feasibility Study for the replacement of the Arden Hills Library.
As a result of the 2008 Facilities Master Plan, it was determined
that the condition of the Arden Hills Library building could no
longer serve the growing needs of the neighborhood. The Master
Plan suggested this library become a 6,600 SF gateway library
developed as a sustainable, multi-use facility.
HGA collaborated with Ramsey County Library to create a new
library within the New Brighton Family Service Center. The
library, which opened in 2011, included renovation and addition
to the existing service center building. The team developed
creative ways to integrate the new library into the existing
building while keeping budget, schedule and disruption to the
existing facility to a minimum.
The feasibility study evaluated the existing building systems
of the New Brighton Family Service Center, developed layout
options for the site and library space and provided Ramsey
County Library with a construction estimate and operational
cost analysis for the proposed location in New Brighton.
The final design built on the programmatic and operational
efficiencies realized by co-locating a gateway library with a
community center. These partnerships reinforce the library as a
community destination. HGA successfully delivered this project
on schedule and within Ramsey County Library’s budget.
RAMSEY COUNTY LIBRARY | SHOREVIEW LIBRARY
AND FEASIBILITY STUDY | Shoreview, Minnesota
RAMSEY COUNTY LIBRARY | MASTER PLAN
Ramsey County, Minnesota
In 2008, HGA worked with representatives of the Ramsey County Library
System staff, Library Board and community to collaborate on developing a
Library Facilities Master Plan for the next ten years.
Ramsey County Library system has a rich history of delivering library services
to their communities. Together with Ramsey County, HGA assessed current
library services and all 7 library facilities - utilizing a report card format to
“grade” each building. Knowledge of industry trends and best practices were
applied, demographic and environmental data was incorporated and a set of
recommendations to create a framework for the next generation of library
services was presented.
Since 2008, Ramsey County Libraries has been successfully implementing
and building upon these recommendations.

Library was created after the building feasibility and existing systems study was completed C An inviting reading area in the library addition
The 2014 update to the Shoreview Library Feasibility Study
developed concepts for a 38,000 SF one-story library located at
the corner of Highway 96 and Victoria Street North. Two existing
houses along Highway 96 became available for purchase which
allowed for new construction on the site of the existing Shoreview
Library. Construction is in process and due to open in January
2017.
The building is oriented towards the Shoreview Community Center
and helps complete the civic campus. Placing the library on the
high portion of the site allows for greater visibility at this major
intersection. Windows along the street façade will reveal the activity
inside the building. A drive-up book drop is provided on the north
side of the building along with a loading dock for Ramsey County
Library’s system-wide Technical Services Center.
The resulting library will allow expanded services to the public,
more efficient spaces for staff and a new identity for Ramsey
County Library Administrative offices. These functions will be
wrapped in a visionary form and is intended to reflect the forward-
thinking views of how Ramsey County will delivery Library services
in the future.

Listening and responding to the voice
of the community is essential to
public architecture. HGA’s approach
is committed to thoughtful listening,
transparent reporting, and engaging and
fun interactive tools. While community
input is ranging and diverse, HGA
has developed processes to review,
catalog, and organize input. We look
for consensus. Success in community
engagement depends on thoughtful
inclusion of community comments in
the architecture. It shows that people
have been heard. Our goal is to create
positive ambassadors for the process, the
project, and the City. HGA is a leader
in community engagement services in
the Twin Cities. Our recent and current
efforts include: City of Edina – Grandview
Study, City of Golden Valley – Brookview
Community Center Task Force, Hennepin
County/City of Edina – Southdale Library
Site Community Engagement, City of
Wayzata – Mill Street Parking Feasibility
Study. We encourage you to contact
our references at the end of this section
– there is no better endorsement than
references from your peers at other cities.

A City Hall project is the very definition
of a multi-use facility serving highly
diverse programs and stakeholders. A
City Hall is the home office for a number
of city staff teams, a service center for
diverse city services, a symbol of civic
identity and pride, an event and meeting
venue, and an example of sustainable
development. This is what makes a City
Hall a unique and vital opportunity for
any city. HGA takes this responsibility
seriously. Through our strategic alliance
with Ted Redmond and paleBLUEdot,
we offer a local and regional subject
matter expert in City Halls, Public Works
facilities, and public sector sustainability
and climate planning. With 30+ city hall
projects and 15+ public works projects,
our team is positioned to both evaluate
the existing Arden Hills City Hall and
provide strategic programming for a
significant civic facility on the TCAAP
site.

Since the specific program for the TCAAP
civic site is not known and will emerge
through our process together, HGA would
like to share some of our recent civic,
community, and culture projects. As
evidenced by the following project collage,
HGA does not work with a preconceived
architectural style in favor of expressing
the unique identity and aspiration of each
community. The design must incorporate
input from the engagement process
showing the City’s commitment to its
citizens and showing a commitment that
the building is for and about people.
HGA’s unique approach is to bring
together optimal function and operation
with signature design – the best of both
worlds.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
The Client understands and acknowledges that in the evaluation, remodeling or repair of existing structures,
certain design and technical decisions are made on assumptions based upon readily available documents and
easily observed existing conditions. Unless specifically directed in writing by the Client, HGA shall not
perform or have performed any destructive testing or open any concealed portions of the structure in order
to ascertain actual conditions.
Where relevant, the Client agrees to provide the following information and/or Services, at its expense, and
HGA shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy and completeness thereof:
1. Any structural, mechanical, chemical, air and water pollution tests, tests for hazardous materials
or other test inspection and reports required by code, regulation, law or the Contract
Documents.
2. Legal, insurance and accounting services as may be necessary. The proposed language of
certificates, assignments or agreements that require HGA's consent or signature shall be
submitted for HGA's review at least 14 days prior to the date execution is needed. The time for
review and/or negotiation of any such documents that HGA determines not to be a standard
industry form shall be an Additional Service.
3. Provide answers to HGA’s questions and attend meetings as required to accomplish the Project.
4. Provide the best available documentation and information regarding the existing conditions.
HGA will invoice monthly for Basic Services, and Additional Services and any Reimbursable Expenses.
Payment is not conditional upon the happening of any other event and is due upon receipt of the invoice.
Any invoiced amount not paid within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice will include an interest and
service charge of one percent (1%) per month. Objections not made to an HGA invoice in writing within
thirty (30) days are deemed waived. If proper objection is not made, and you fail to pay HGA within sixty
(60) days of receipt of any invoice, HGA may, after giving seven (7) days’ written notice, suspend services
until the outstanding balances are paid.
The Client and HGA shall not be liable to each other for any consequential damages, including loss of use,
loss of profit, or cost of financing.
HGA shall not have control over or charge of, and shall not be responsible for, construction means,
methods, techniques, sequences, procedures, or for safety precautions and programs in connection with the
Work, since these are solely the Contractor’s responsibility. HGA shall not be responsible for the
Contractor’s schedules or failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
HGA and its consultants shall have no responsibility for the discovery, presence, handling, removal or
disposal of, or exposure of persons to, hazardous materials in any form.
HGA shall retain all intellectual property rights to the drawings, specifications or other documents it prepares.
The Client may retain copies, including reproducible copies of such documents for information and reference
in connection with its use or occupancy of the Project.
This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon seven (7) days’ written notice should the other fail
substantially to perform in accordance with its terms, through no fault of the party that initiates the
termination. In the event of termination, HGA shall be compensated for all services performed and expenses
incurred to that date.
Nothing contained in this Agreement shall cause any third party to be a beneficiary of this Agreement.
This Agreement is intended to be the entire Agreement between us. Any changes or additions to this
Agreement must be in writing and signed by both of us. The pre-printed terms and conditions of any
Purchase Order issued for convenience that may be signed by both of us are not an addition or amendment
to this Agreement and are of no force and effect.
