1. AGENDA ITEMS
A. Northeast Youth and Family Services Update
Tara Jebens-Singh, NYFS President and CEO, introduced herself to the Council and explained
NYFS was a community-based trauma informed non-profit, mental and human services agency
that is celebrating its 45th year in service to the community. She noted NYFS partners with 15
cities, noting Lauderdale would be joining the organization 2022. She explained NYFS also
partners with three school districts. She commented on the people who are served by NYFS
mental health services in suburban Ramsey County. She discussed how her organization has
made transitions in order to assist youth in crisis throughout the COVID pandemic. She
commented on the benefits of the youth diversion program. She described how NYFS was now
partnering with five local law enforcement agencies for mental health care. She was happy to
report telehealth services would remain in place going forward. She discussed how her
organization was working to expand online services due to the pandemic. She thanked the City of
Arden Hills for their continued support and then detailed the value of the contracted services the
City received in 2020 and 2021. She thanked the Council for their time and noted she was
available for comments or questions.
Councilmember Scott asked if Ms. Jebens-Singh has a comparison for the number of people
served in 2019 compared to 2020 and 2021.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 2
City Administrator Perrault reviewed the numbers from 2019 with the Council.
Councilmember Holmes requested further information on how the services provided were billed
out to residents.
Ms. Jebens-Singh described how grants, insurance and other dollars are used to help cover the
expense for the services provided by NYFS.
Councilmember Holden commented on the deficit that has occurred at NYFS. She questioned
how much costs would increase in 2022.
Ms. Jebens-Singh reported the costs were approved by the Board of Directors noting the member
cities would have a 3% increase from 2021. She discussed how she created a more proportionate
cost for cities based on population.
City Administrator Perrault explained the City of Arden Hills would actually have a 10%
increase, due to a 7% carryover increase from last year.
Councilmember Holden questioned if the majority of diversion cases were appointed by the
Ramsey County court system.
Ms. Jebens-Singh stated this was the case, noting other agencies also referred youth to this
program.
Councilmember Holden commented on how County tax dollars helped to fund the diversion
program, which meant only 14 individuals in Arden Hills were served by NYFS in 2020.
Mayor Grant thanked Ms. Jebens-Singh for her presentation and update.
B. Feasibility Study – Proposed Trail from Lake Valentine Road to CR-96
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reviewed the location of the proposed trail
segment with the Council. This trail would be a 6,500-foot North-South connecting segment along
Old Highway 10 from Lake Valentine Road to CR-96. At the southern end of the corridor there is
an existing trail segment along Lake Valentine Road near Valentine Park and the City has 95%
design plans for a trail segment on the West side of Old Highway 10 from Lake Valentine Road to
County Road E2. Towards the middle of the trail corridor, there is another connection on the
south side of Parkshore Drive as part of the senior living development. At the north end of this
corridor the trail would meet the existing trail that extends along Old Hwy 10 at the interchange of
CR-96.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported the feasibility study will provide
information of what is involved if this trail were to be designed and constructed, such as, existing
conditions with utilities (Public and Private), drainage, environmental challenges, estimated costs
and project funding sources. It would also include some Public involvement to identify needs or
issues from their feedback. The feasibility report does not commit the City to construct the trail
but puts the City in position to pursue funding opportunities when available.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 3
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained for additional information,
Ramsey County is performing a pavement preservation project along Old Highway 10 from
County Road E to CR-96 in 2023. City staff has already coordinated with Ramsey County on a
segment of trail designed on the West side of Old Snelling from County Road E2 to Lake
Valentine Road which they will incorporate into their plans.
Mayor Grant questioned if the Council wanted to support a feasibility study for this trail.
Councilmember Holden asked if staff had reviewed the study that was previously completed.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen commented the previous study was a blank
slate and was based on the trail that was constructed in 2018.
Councilmember McClung recalled there was an earlier version of this in a simpler form.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported he could look back in the records to
see what information was available. He noted he was proposing to complete an in-depth feasibility
study with soil borings and geotechnical work.
Councilmember Holden reported the previous study included soil borings.
Councilmember Holmes asked if staff was working to make this project shovel ready.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated this would not be the case but rather
would provide the City with cost estimates that could be relied on.
Councilmember Holmes questioned if this study was a waste of time.
Mayor Grant recommended staff search the previous history on this project in order to find the
study that was previously completed. He indicated this would be valuable information for the City
to have in place.
Councilmember Holden did not believe this project had to be shovel ready unless there were
funding sources available for the City to tap into.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen indicated staff spoke with HR Green
regarding funding opportunities and noted this portion of trail could be completed with grant
funding.
Mayor Grant supported staff looking through the files to find the previous study prior to working
with HR Green on grant opportunities.
Councilmember Scott and Councilmember Holden agreed.
Councilmember McClung suggested the City seek federal dollars for this trail after staff looks to
see what information it already had.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 4
Councilmember Holmes indicated this was a County road and this should be taken into
consideration.
Mayor Grant reported everything north of Lindey’s was a County road.
Council consensus was to direct staff to further investigate the study that had already been done
on this trail segment and to report back to the Council at a future worksession meeting.
C. City Owned Parcel at 3588 Ridgewood Road
City Planner Jagoe stated at the October 18th City Council Work Session, the Council discussed
possible actions for next steps in proceeding with the potential listing of 3588 Ridgewood Road.
One of the considerations for the Council was whether the City owned parcel would be marketed
to the adjacent Property Owners at 3583 Snelling Avenue and 3570 Ridgewood Road or placed on
the MLS for broad sale to the general public. The consensus of the Council was that Staff would
proceed with obtaining an appraisal and the property would be marketed through a licensed real
estate agent to the general public. Staff was directed to bring back to the Council at a future work
session the appraisal information and general feedback from a real estate professional on
marketability of the lot.
City Planner Jagoe commented following the work session meeting, the adjacent Property
Owner at 3570 Ridgewood Road sent an email requesting City Council reconsideration of their
interest in listing the property to the general public and wishes to engage the Council in discussion
on purchasing the property in advance of any further action on the City’s part.
City Planner Jagoe reported since the work session, Staff has contacted two appraisal services
and has received quotes of $600 and $2,400 and a timeline of 4-6 weeks to perform the appraisal.
In addition, Staff contacted the City of Mounds View on process they’ve followed for agent
selection and the City Attorney on recommended next steps. The general guidance was that local
agents should be approached and provided some sort of informational packet on the parcel (i.e.
site map, acres, zoning, City’s intended use of site, timing, etc.). This packet would provide a date
for their responded interest and request that they include their terms for listing the parcel. That
information would be presented to the Council prior to any execution of the listing agreement.
Based on both of those factors, Staff anticipates the property would likely not be ready to be
placed on the market until the early part of next year.
City Planner Jagoe explained staff wanted to provide the Council with an update and to seek
confirmation on proceeding with the appraisal and agent selection process. If directed as such this
item would tentatively be brought back to the Council at the January or February work session for
additional discussion.
Councilmember Holden supported the City selling this lot and making as much as possible.
Mayor Grant questioned if the Council would support a variance on this lot.
Councilmember Holmes supported the City getting an appraisal and fair market value for the
sale of the lot without any side offers.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 5
Further discussion ensued regarding the development potential of the lot.
Mayor Grant supported the City moving forward with the $600 appraisal as proposed by staff.
The Council was in agreement.
D. Arden Manor Park (CDBG) and Floral Park Hardcourt Improvements
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated staff is requesting Council discuss
moving forward with improving these Parks with the anticipated timeline of being complete by
the end of Fall 2022, which is also the timeline of keeping the Arden Manor Park eligible for the
CDBG funds. If Council chooses to move forward with both projects, staff recommends
combining these Park improvements into one plan set to promote lower bid prices. Construction
items from each Park would be separated within the plans to differentiate the grant participating
costs.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported due to the tight timeline and the
demands required by both CDBG and RCWD Stormwater Management Grant, staff recommends
requesting a proposal directly from HR Green to take the project from start to finish. Tasks to
include, but not limited to, public engagement, project management, design coordination, Council
presentations, vendor/contractor coordination, construction observation, and all paperwork and
requirements from the grants. HR Green staff has already visited the project site and have
completed past CDBG projects and the Project Manager serves on RCWD’s Citizens Advisory
Committee.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained City staff is working with HR
Green to complete the project scope which includes design, Public Engagement, Council
meetings, Open-House, CDBG administration items, RCWD grant application and administration,
design for both parks, bidding assistance, and construction observation. At this time there is not
an official proposal with cost, but it is expected to be near $80,000. Staff commented further on
the proposed work that would be completed and requested direction from the Council.
Councilmember Holden asked if the work needed at Arden Manor could be completed by the
corrections crews.
City Administrator Perrault reported he would have to look into this further to see if CDBG
grant could be used to pay for an ICWC crew.
Mayor Grant questioned if the Council supported Floral Park and Arden Manor Park being
renovated through the CDBG funding. The Council fully supported this project.
Councilmember Holden stated the work at Floral Park would involve some tree removal.
Councilmember Holmes suggested a neighborhood meeting be held for the residents living
around Floral Park in order to make them aware of the tree loss that would occur.

Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained there would be some community
engagement that would occur in order to make the surrounding neighbors of Floral Park aware of
the changes that would occur.
Mayor Grant agreed that trees would have to be taken down and roots should be addressed in
order to protect the new courts.
Council consensus was to support the Floral Park and Arden Manor Park projects moving
forwards as one plan set.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen asked if the Council supported HR Green
managing these projects.
City Administrator Perrault explained staff needed assistance to help the City through the
CDBG grant process.
Council consensus was to support HR Green managing these projects on behalf of the City.
E. 2022 Budget Discussion
Finance Director Bauman stated a budget workshop was held with the Council on August 16,
2021. Staff was directed to make a few minor changes to revenues and expenditures, and Council
adopted a maximum tax levy increase of 4.5% on September 13, 2021. The final levy and budget
adoption meeting is scheduled for December 13, 2021.
Finance Director Bauman reported the 2022 proposed budget is currently being prepared
assuming a 3.0% wage adjustment for nonunion and union staff. There was a survey completed of
surrounding communities and most were at 3.0%. It is important for the City to remain
competitive in the marketplace. Benefit amounts have been adjusted based on renewal
information. Health insurance is set to increase by about 9.0% and dental is set to increase by
3.3%. The city’s payment toward employee insurance is increasing $47.04 per month for an
employee on a single plan and $91.39 per month for an employee on a family plan. Overall, the
city cost for insurance is increasing $20,460. The number of positions included in the budget is
decreasing by one due to the elimination of the Recreation Coordinator. Also, there are changes to
some of the wage allocations and a couple of new position titles with different grades are included
in Public Works and Community Development. Staff commented further on the proposed budget
and asked for feedback from the Council.
Councilmember Holden asked if the City was seeing additional revenues after the water meter
concerns were addressed.
Finance Director Bauman reported there were 15 customers that had been underbilled for water.
She did not anticipate the City would see a large increase in revenues.
Mayor Grant supported the City using a portion of the tree funds in the Park Fund to plant trees
in 2022.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 7
Councilmember Holden supported staff speaking with the City Attorney to see if the tree funds
could be used for landscaping and shrubbery.
Councilmember Holmes stated she did not support the City giving $20,000 to NYFS in 2022.
She discussed how this organization was in competition with other non-profits in the community
that were worthy of support.
Councilmember Holden concurred noting Health Partners had a mental health division available
for Arden Hills residents.
Councilmember Scott commented Health Partners was not a non-profit. He explained there are
other organizations that provide mental health services, but he was uncertain that these services
were as far reaching as NYFS. For this reason, he was leaning towards the City continuing to
support NYFS.
Councilmember McClung stated he was uncertain if there was another organization that was a
bigger bang for the buck that was available to the City.
Mayor Grant asked if there were other diversion alternatives available to the City. He indicated
he was on the fence, but was prone to stay with NYFS.
Further discussion ensued.
Councilmember Holden discussed the deficit that NYFS was facing and anticipated this would
cause continued increases from this organization.
Mayor Grant stated 3/5 of the Council did not support continued funding for NYFS.
Councilmember Holden commented one of her concerns was that NYFS did not work with the
Ramsey County Sheriff’s Department, who serves the City of Arden Hills.
Council directed staff not to bring forward the NYFS agreement for renewal for 2022.
Mayor Grant asked where the Council was with respect to the levy increase.
Councilmember Holmes stated she was at 4.5%.
Councilmember Scott indicated he supported a 4.5% increase as well.
Councilmember Holden commented she also supported a 4.5% increase.
Councilmember McClung explained he supported an increase of 4.0%.
F. Draft 2022 Fee Schedule
City Clerk Hanson stated the City Council annually establishes a fee schedule for administrative,
building construction, liquor licensing, park and recreation facility usage, planning and zoning,
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 8
utilities, business licenses, utility fees, and other miscellaneous permits and penalties that are
enforced by the City. Staff provided the Council with a recap on the fee schedule changes that
were made in 2021, along with noting the proposed changes for 2022.
Councilmember Holmes indicated she did not support waiving any rental fees for the National
Guard.
Councilmember Scott stated he did not like the idea of charging another governmental agency
for the use of space. However, he did not anticipate the National Guard would be renting space
from the City given their new space, and he was content to leave the language as is.
Mayor Grant supported the National Guard having to pay for picnic shelter rentals.
Councilmember Holmes requested further information regarding the after-hours call out fee.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained this was an added fee the City
would be charging for inspections that were required after hours.
Councilmember Holmes recommended the garden plot and warming house fees not be increased
for 2022.
Councilmember Holden stated she supported the proposed inflationary increases for the garden
plots and warming houses due to inflationary increases.
Councilmember Holmes agreed and stated she withdrew her objection.
G. Senior Engineering Technician Discussion
City Administrator Perrault stated the City Council previously authorized Staff to move
forward with the recruitment of a Senior Engineering Technician; following two attempts at
posting the position we do not have a viable candidate to bring forward to Council for approval.
Following internal discussions with the Public Works Director/City Engineer and the Personnel
Committee, we are recommending the position be re-vamped to a higher level position to attract a
wider range and higher quality candidate. This new position would be an Assistant Public Works
Director, it would be similar to the Assistant City Engineer position that the City previously had,
but the focus would shift away from engineering and more towards operational duties, such as,
project inspection/management, capital project planning and street/utility operations. It is also
anticipated this position will be the direct supervisor of Recreation Activities. The Public Works
Director/ City Engineer will be present to speak more to the position and answer additional
questions. One additional item the Council will want to weigh in on is if we should have a job
posting for this role or directly recruit qualified individuals.
Councilmember Scott asked if the creation of this position would bring some work back in-
house that was currently being contracted.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 9
City Administrator Perrault commented a person at this level would give the City the ability to
complete feasibility reports and construction observation, but full plans would still require the
assistance of a consultant.
Councilmember Holden stated she believed this was a great idea.
Councilmember Holmes suggested the new person be in charge of the vehicle maintenance
schedule.
Councilmember McClung supported the new position.
City Administrator Perrault questioned how the City should recruit for this position. He noted
the City could post for the position and see what candidates apply, or staff could approach a
candidate that they have in mind for the position.
Councilmember Holden supported staff trying to hire someone as quickly as possible for this
position.
Mayor Grant concurred and noted if this individual was not available, then the City would have
to post for the position.
H. Committees/Commissions Discussion
City Administrator Perrault stated the City Council requested a discussion on
Committee/Commission members and term limits. A verbal update will be provided to the City
Council. Below is the City Code language regarding term lengths.
Subdivision 7: Length of Term. Unless otherwise specifically provided, each Member of any
Board, Committee, Commission or other appointed body shall serve for a term of three (3)
years.
A. Number of Terms. Each Member may serve for no more than three (3) consecutive
three-year terms.
B. Staggered Terms. One-third of each Board, Committee, Commission or other
appointed body shall be appointed at the beginning of each fiscal year.
Councilmember Holden asked how many people would be impacted if a term limit were to be
set.
City Administrator Perrault explained this would impact eight serving Commission members.
Councilmember Holden stated because this language was in place, she supported the City
enforcing it.
Councilmember Holmes asked if this language applied to alternate members.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 10
Mayor Grant noted the language applies only to full serving members and not alternates. He
stated he would like to understand how many terms each member had served, for those that have
served more than three.
City Administrator Perrault commented he did not have this information in front of him.
Mayor Grant indicated he supported the City enforcing this language as well.
City Clerk Hanson stated Commission members may question why they were being asked to step
down after having been appointed to a three-year term.
City Administrator Perrault stated it can be explained that any Commission member can be
removed from a Commission by City Council vote.
Councilmember Holmes indicated if this language were enforced, there would be only one
member of the FPAC that remains in place.
Councilmember Holden commented FPAC was a unique group that should possible be turned
into something else instead of being a Committee or Commission because they were project
driven and the group does not meet routinely.
Councilmember Scott stated all of the Commission members were volunteers willing to serve on
behalf of the community. He supported the City Council removing the term limit language in
order to all these individuals to serve the City with the understanding the Council could remove
anyone by vote.
Councilmember McClung supported the City having the term limits in place because this would
allow other people the opportunity to serve.
Councilmember Holden agreed with Councilmember McClung. She believed nine years was
enough time for an individual to serve. She noted there was nothing stopping the individuals that
would be asked to step down from still attending the public meetings.
Councilmember Holmes stated she believed it made sense to follow the language that was in
place and to only allow Commission members to serve for nine years. She reported she did
support turning FPAC into something else because this group did not meet often.
Mayor Grant stated agreed that FPAC was more of a task force type of group, and that the City
can address this particular group’s function at a future meeting.
Mayor Grant explained the majority of the Council supported the language being enforced,
which meant the nine-year term limit would have to be enforced and some difficult conversations
would have to be held. He requested the Council to deliver this message to their respective
Commissions. He stated Steven Jones and Clayton Zimmerman could continue to serve as
alternates to the Planning Commission.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 11
City Administrator Perrault suggested the Council discuss its Commissions and Committees
further in December or January to see if the role and function of these groups should be amended.
He requested that before any notifications were made to the Commission members that he be
allowed to speak with the City Attorney first to see if any members have to be removed by
Council vote.
I. Council Tracker
City Administrator Perrault provided the Council with an update on the Council Tracker.
The Council directed staff to speak with the City Attorney regarding the City’s liability regarding
the traffic concerns at the Mounds View High School and to question if the Ramsey County
Sheriff’s office could be contacted to assist with traffic for 15 to 30 minutes each day.
2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES
Councilmember McClung stated he would like the Council to consider his liaison positions for
2022.
Mayor Grant requested Councilmember McClung email him with his preferences.
Councilmember Holmes commented she was upset by the fact the Ramsey County Sheriff’s
office does not keep the City Council apprised of crime incidents and traffic accidents that have
occurred. She requested that this change, order to keep the Council better informed on the events
that occur in the community.
Councilmember Holden questioned if the City should be looking for another public safety
provider.
City Administrator Perrault explained the the current contract with Ramsey County allows
termination by notice has to be given by March 31, 2022 for the subsequent year.
Councilmember Holmes stated she was not suggesting this.
Councilmember Scott supported the City receiving monthly updates on the events that occur
within the community from the Ramsey County Sheriff’s office. He noted this was done on a
monthly basis for North Oaks.
Mayor Grant commented he gave the Rotary Club a presentation recently where he received a
great deal of questions.
Mayor Grant noted he met Major Bradford with the Red Bulls on Veterans Day. He noted the
Major expressed great pride in the facilities here in Arden Hills.
Mayor Grant concurred that the City needed to have a greater level of communication between
the City and the Ramsey County Sheriff’s office. He encouraged the Council to watch for the
sheriff’s department to see if they are patrolling the local streets.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – NOVEMBER 15, 2021 12
Mayor Grant indicated he received committee preferences from Councilmember Holmes, but no
other Councilmembers. He requested the Council provide him with their committee preferences.
Mayor Grant commented that on Wednesday, November 17th at 10:30 a.m. in the circular lot
Representative Moller would be making a presentation. He encouraged all City Councilmembers
to be at this event. He noted 40 House Committee members would be attending this presentation
along with MNDOT.
City Administrator Perrault explained he forwarded a draft State of the City presentation for the
Council to review noting he would like to get this to CTV later this week to be posted on the
website.

9. NEW BUSINESS
A. Resolution 2021-066 – Site Plan Review – 4200 Round Lake Road (Scannell
Properties) – PC 21-025
City Planner Jagoe stated Scannell Properties was approved Resolution 2020-045 for a
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) subject to 35 conditions on October 12, 2020 that was part of a
Planned Unit Development (PUD) for the subject property in order to operate an office and
warehouse facility. The approximate 21 acre site is located south of the cul-de-sac on Gateway
Boulevard and north of Interstate 694 and east of 35W. The Subject Property had been vacant
since 2006 with wetlands located adjacent to Interstates (“35W and 694”).
City Planner Jagoe explained the site is highly visible from 694 and 35W. Separate access points
to the site are provided via Gateway Boulevard for employee parking and deliveries. The site
development will include office space, warehousing, ground level unloading access with 38 dock
doors located on the north side of the building, and at-grade office parking lots located on the
south side of the building.
City Planner Jagoe reported one of the conditions from Resolution 2020-045 stated “Site Plan
approval shall be required for the construction of the proof of parking area”. This proof of parking
area was shown on Site Exhibit EX-1 (Exhibit D) as part of the PUD Review. The Applicant has a
prospective tenant that will occupy 2/3rd’s of the building which also necessitates the need for
construction of this future parking area. Therefore, the Applicant is pursuing the Site Plan Review
for expansion of the parking area.
City Planner Jagoe reviewed the Plan Evaluation in further detail with the Council and offered
the following Findings of Fact:
1. The Applicant has submitted an application for Site Plan Review to construct additional
parking previously identified as “proof of parking” at the subject property 4200 Round
Lake Road.
2. The Subject Property is located with the Gateway Business (“GB”) District and is guided
as Light Industrial & Office on the 2040 Land Use Plan.
3. The Applicant operates under a Master Planned Unit Development and has been approved
for construction of a 250,000 square foot office and warehouse facility on the Subject
Property.
4. Flexibility through the PUD process was granted in the following areas: parking setbacks,
minimum caliper inches, and perennials and shrubberies.
5. The proposed plan does not conflict with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning
Code or the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City.
6. The application is not anticipated to create a negative impact on the immediate area or the
community as a whole.
7. The proposed plan will not produce any permanent noise, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air
pollution, heat, liquid, or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics.
8. The proposed plan is not anticipated to have any impact on traffic or parking conditions.
9. The accessory off-street parking would be in compliance with all provisions of the Zoning
Code.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – NOVEMBER 22, 2021 4
10. A public hearing for a Site Plan Review is not required before the request can be brought
before the City Council.

Councilmember Holmes requested further information regarding how the space will be divided
between tenants.
City Planner Jagoe stated one-third of the building would be occupied by one tenant and the
remaining two-thirds of the building would be occupied by a second tenant. She explained both
tenants had already been determined.
Councilmember Holden questioned if the percentage of office space was being met.
City Planner Jagoe commented this was correct noting a minimum of 20% non-warehouse
and/or office space was being provided.
Councilmember Scott questioned if the City viewed laboratory space the same as warehouse
space.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – NOVEMBER 22, 2021 6
City Planner Jagoe reported the new tenant has some area identified as warehouse space and
another portion has been identified as lab space.
Councilmember Scott inquired if the City had different parking requirements for lab space
versus office or warehouse space.
City Planner Jagoe reported she spoke to the applicant regarding this matter and explained the
lab space as explained during the Planning Commission review would fall under Other Business
and Industry which required one space per 1,000 square feet of floor area. The applicant has
calculated the lab space as one space per 250 square feet of floor area similarly to an office layout.
Councilmember Scott asked if either tenant would be working second and third shifts.
City Planner Jagoe deferred this question to the applicant.
Councilmember Holden questioned if the applicant believed all of the requested parking stalls
were necessary.
City Planner Jagoe reported this was the case.
Councilmember Holmes asked if the applicant had provided the City with employee numbers to
justify the requested parking.
City Planner Jagoe commented the applicant had not provided employee numbers to the City,
but rather provided the square footage calculations in order to satisfy the code requirements.
Mayor Grant stated in the schematics that were just given to the Council this evening, it showed
38 dock doors on the rear of the building.
City Planner Jagoe indicated the original PUD approved 38 docks doors. She reported she has
not confirmed this number with the applicant.
Mayor Grant requested further information regarding the mezzanine level and asked how many
windows would be installed.
Dan Salzer of Scannell Properties, LLC, the applicant, stated at this time the windows were not
being proposed. He reported as the tenant was working through their plans, he anticipated the
second story windows would match the first story windows.
Mayor Grant questioned what the building signage may look like.
Mr. Salzer reported both of his tenants were interested in signage.
Councilmember Holmes asked if there was a way to get an estimate on the number of employees
tenant two would have in order to better understand the parking needs.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – NOVEMBER 22, 2021 7
Mr. Salzer stated tenant two would be expanding their business onto this property and the
number of employees was uncertain at this time. He noted they have talked about three different
shifts with 125 employees per shift for the hourly employees plus salaried workers.
Councilmember Holden commented parking would not be allowed on Gateway Boulevard
which meant parking had to be provided onsite. She indicated she could support the site having
additional parking in order to meet the needs of the future tenant.
Councilmember Holmes requested further information regarding the retaining walls and drainage
system.
Mr. Salzer reported Rice Creek Watershed had already approved the stormwater treatment plans
and explained he has been working with other organizations such as Met Council, MnDOT and
Xcel Energy on the plans.
Mike Brant, project engineer with Kimley Horn & Associates, commented further on the
underground stormwater retention system that was reviewed and approved by the Rice Creek
Watershed.
Councilmember Holmes asked if the City Engineer supported the underground retention system
as proposed.
Consulting Engineer Morast stated in general the retention, quality and infiltration requirements
have met the City’s standards. He noted the City still needs more details on the final design of the
system itself.
Councilmember Holmes requested further information from staff regarding the concerns they
have with the retaining wall.
Consulting Engineer Morast explained there were easements existing south of the parking lot
and he needed to better understand how these easements would be accessed.
Mr. Salzer stated he was not familiar with this detail, but would work through this concern with
the City. He reported there was access to the easements from MnDOT property.
Mayor Grant recommended a condition for approval be added to ensure the applicant has
received approvals from MnDOT, Xcel Energy and Met Council.
Councilmember Holden reported she supported the project moving forward so long as all City
requirements were being met. She discussed Condition 13 and asked for further information
regarding the maintenance agreement.
City Attorney Jamnik commented on the maintenance agreement that would be put in place to
deal with the unique circumstances of stormwater treatment and maintenance for the proposed
underground retention system on this property.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – NOVEMBER 22, 2021 8
Councilmember Holden questioned how many trees the property would be short, based on the
original agreement that was in place with the City.
City Planner Jagoe indicated the original PUD approved 410 caliper inches or 141 trees. She
noted for the Site Plan Review the applicant was requesting flexibility with 423 caliper inches or
137 trees. She stated a $10,000 payment has already been made to the City’s tree fund as per the
original PUD.
Councilmember Holden inquired if the Council was willing to give up trees for the planting
islands.
Mr. Salzer discussed the reasons why trees could not be planted within the islands, noting tree
roots would upset the underground water retention system.
Councilmember Holden indicated she did not have a problem with this given the fact trees
would be planted elsewhere on the site.
Mayor Grant asked if this request was flexibility within the previous request or was this a new
PUD.
City Attorney Jamnik advised he viewed the request as flexibility from the previous request.
Councilmember Scott stated he supported this matter being reviewed under the previous PUD
request.
Further discussion ensued regarding City and MnDOT setbacks.
Councilmember Holden indicated she supported this item moving forward under the previously
approved PUD.
Mayor Grant concurred.
Councilmember Holmes and Councilmember McClung supported the matter moving forward
under the current PUD.
Councilmember Holmes asked if there were 18 or 19 conditions for approval.
City Planner Jagoe reported Condition 19 could be stricken because it was no longer applicable.
MOTION: Mayor Grant moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a motion to adopt
Resolution #2021-066 approving Planning Case 21-025 – Site Plan Review for
Scannell Properties, LLC at 4200 Round Lake Road based on the findings of
fact, submitted plans and the eighteen (18) conditions for approval as listed
within the November 22, 2021 report to the City Council, amending Condition
10 to include Met Council and Xcel Energy. A roll call vote was taken. The
motion carried (5-0). (Minutes correction to strike staff report condition
sixteen (16) with flexibility from the previous request.)

CONSENT ITEM – 6B
MEMORANDUM
DATE: December 13, 2021
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
Dave Perrault, City Administrator
FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director
SUBJECT: 2022 Non-Union Employee Compensation Plan
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source:
N/A N/A N/A
Council Should Consider
Motion to approve, table or deny the following:
• 2022 non-union employee compensation plan.
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Background
Annually, the City Council evaluates its compensation plan and determines if a cost of living
adjustment (COLA) is appropriate. The 2022 budget was prepared with a 3.0% increase for non-
union employees and a 3.0% increase for I.O.U.E. union members. This, in effect, helps to
maintain the City’s place in the market.
The seasonal employee compensation plan has been reviewed by staff and adjustments have been
made, if necessary, to comply with minimum wage laws.
Attached for Council approval are the compensation plans for January 1, 2022, for non-union
employees as well as the proposed 2022 seasonal employee compensation plan.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: December 13, 2021
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
Dave Perrault, City Administrator
FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director
SUBJECT: 2022 City Contribution to Employee Monthly Benefits
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source:
N/A N/A N/A
Council Should Consider
Motion to approve, table or deny the following:
• Resolution 2021-068, setting the City Contribution to Employee Monthly Benefits for the
2022 benefit year.
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Background
Each year, the City needs to review the employee benefit options for the coming year and set the
monthly contribution rates.
Discussion
This is the fourth year of the Minnesota Public Employees Insurance Program (PEIP). Rates
increased 9.0% overall for health insurance. It is proposed that the city’s payment toward employee
health insurance will increase $47.04 per month for an employee on a single plan and $91.39 per
month for an employee on a family plan. The City would also cover the employee dental premium
for those employees that chose a Single health plan. No changes were made to the Life, Short Term
or Long Term Disability benefits. This is approximately a $20,460 increase in the budget.

MEMORANDUM

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
Dave Perrault, City Administrator
FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director
SUBJECT: Resolution Accepting Redistribution of American Rescue Plan Funds
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source:
N/A N/A N/A
Council Should Consider
Motion to approve, table or deny the following:
• Resolution 2021-069, Accepting the Redistribution of Unrequested Coronavirus Local
Fiscal Recovery Fund Established Under the American Rescue Plan Act
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Discussion
The attached resolution was developed by the League of Minnesota Cities to accept the
redistribution of ARPA funds. There is not a specific requirement in the law that cities pass a
resolution, but it is a formal way to acknowledge that the City will be receiving the funds and grants
staff the authority to take the necessary steps once the process is open through Minnesota
Management and Budget. We received 50% of the redistribution amount in November
($17,812.94). The total amount now being allocated to the City is $1,123,530.68.
Budget Impact
Whatever the City ends up using the funds for needs to qualify under the American Rescue Plan
Act. These funds will be a topic of discussion at a future meeting.

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS
COUNTY OF RAMSEY
STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 2021-069
RESOLUTION TO ACCEPT THE REDISTRIBUTION OF
UNREQUESTED CORONAVIRUS LOCAL FISCAL RECOVERY FUND
ESTABLISHED UNDER THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT
WHEREAS, Congress adopted the American Rescue Plan Act in March 2021
(“ARPA”) which included $65 billion in recovery funds for cities across the country.
WHEREAS, ARPA funds are intended to provide support to state, local, and tribal
governments in responding to the impact of COVID-19 and in their efforts to contain COVID-
19 in their communities, residents, and businesses.
WHEREAS, The Fiscal Recovery Funds provides for $19.53 billion in payments to be
made to States and territories which will distribute the funds to nonentitlement units of local
government (NEUs).
WHEREAS, NEUs generally have populations below 50,000.
WHEREAS, The ARPA requires that States and territories allocate funding to NEUs in
an amount that bears the same proportion as the population of the NEU bears to the total
population of all NEUs in the State or territory.
WHEREAS, after the deadline of October 11, 2021, passed for NEUs to request ARPA
funds, nearly $12 million of the $377 million available to Minnesota’s NEUs remained
unrequested.
WHEREAS, as allowed by the U.S. Treasury, the State of Minnesota has redistributed
these remaining funds amongst eligible local governments who requested ARPA funds.
WHEREAS, the redistribution amount is approximately $3.47 per capita, capped at
75% of the most recent budget adopted as of January 27, 2020.
WHEREAS, $35,625.88 has been allocated to the City of Arden Hills (“City”)
pursuant to the ARPA (Redistribution).
WHEREAS, the Redistribution will be distributed in two tranches with half
received in 2021 and the second half in 2022.
WHEREAS, the United States Department of Treasury has adopted guidance
regarding the use of ARPA funds.

326B.148 SURCHARGE.
Subdivision 1.Computation.To defray the costs of administering sections 326B.101 to 326B.194, a
surcharge is imposed on all permits issued by municipalities in connection with the construction of or addition
or alteration to buildings and equipment or appurtenances after June 30, 1971. The commissioner may use
any surplus in surcharge receipts to award grants for code research and development and education.
If the fee for the permit issued is fixed in amount the surcharge is equivalent to one-half mill (.0005) of
the fee or $1, except that effective July 1, 2010, until June 30, 2015, the permit surcharge is equivalent to
one-half mill (.0005) of the fee or $5, whichever amount is greater. For all other permits, the surcharge is
as follows:
(1)if the valuation of the structure, addition, or alteration is $1,000,000 or less, the surcharge is equivalent
to one-half mill (.0005) of the valuation of the structure, addition, or alteration;
(2) if the valuation is greater than $1,000,000, the surcharge is $500 plus two-fifths mill (.0004) of the
value between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000;
(3) if the valuation is greater than $2,000,000, the surcharge is $900 plus three-tenths mill (.0003) of
the value between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000;
(4) if the valuation is greater than $3,000,000, the surcharge is $1,200 plus one-fifth mill (.0002) of the
value between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000;
(5) if the valuation is greater than $4,000,000, the surcharge is $1,400 plus one-tenth mill (.0001) of the
value between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000; and
(6) if the valuation exceeds $5,000,000, the surcharge is $1,500 plus one-twentieth mill (.00005) of the
value that exceeds $5,000,000.
Subd. 2.Collection and reports.All permit surcharges must be collected by each municipality and a
portion of them remitted to the state. Each municipality having a population greater than 20,000 people shall
prepare and submit to the commissioner once a month a report of fees and surcharges on fees collected
during the previous month but shall retain the greater of two percent or that amount collected up to $25 to
apply against the administrative expenses the municipality incurs in collecting the surcharges. All other
municipalities shall submit the report and surcharges on fees once a quarter but shall retain the greater of
four percent or that amount collected up to $25 to apply against the administrative expenses the municipalities
incur in collecting the surcharges. The report, which must be in a form prescribed by the commissioner,
must be submitted together with a remittance covering the surcharges collected by the 15th day following
the month or quarter in which the surcharges are collected.
A municipality that fails to report or submit the required remittance to the department in accordance
with this subdivision is subject to the remedies provided by section 326B.082.
Subd. 3.Revenue to equal costs.Revenue received from the surcharge imposed in subdivision 1 should
approximately equal the cost, including the overhead cost, of administering sections 326B.101 to 326B.194.

surcharge is imposed on all permits issued by municipalities in connection with the construction of or addition

to one-half mill (.0005) of the valuation of the structure, addition, or alteration;
(2) if the valuation is greater than $1,000,000, the surcharge is $500 plus two-fifths mill (.0004) of the
value between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000;
(3) if the valuation is greater than $2,000,000, the surcharge is $900 plus three-tenths mill (.0003) of

(4) if the valuation is greater than $3,000,000, the surcharge is $1,200 plus one-fifth mill (.0002) of the
value between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000;
(5) if the valuation is greater than $4,000,000, the surcharge is $1,400 plus one-tenth mill (.0001) of the
value between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000; and

prepare and submit to the commissioner once a month a report of fees and surcharges on fees collected
during the previous month but shall retain the greater of two percent or that amount collected up to $25 to
apply against the administrative expenses the municipality incurs in collecting the surcharges. All other

Note two restaurants that have previously held liquor licenses have been removed from the above
table. Orchid Bar and Grill closed in the fall, and Great China may be changing ownership and
therefore is not currently pursuing a renewal for 2022. Staff will bring forward a liquor license renewal
request in the future should the current owner of Great China remain and wish to renew; or will bring
forward a new license request should a new owner be identified that wishes to pursue such.
There are two businesses applying for a new, first time liquor license with the City of Arden Hills.
These are Dong Hae Korean BBQ and Sushi 2 (located in the space previously occupied by the Orchid
Bar and Grill) and Brightside Café (located in the Northern Lights Bingo site). For reference, the City
Council discussed the proposal for a new liquor license located at the Northern Lights Bingo site at its
November 8, 2021 special work session. Please note the liquor license for this location will be issued
to the restaurant, registered with the State of Minnesota as the Bright Side Café, and the license will
include the entire premises (as indicated in the site drawing provided in November which is attached to
the formal City liquor license application form, the licensed premises includes the café/restaurant area
as well as the bingo hall). These two businesses have passed the necessary background checks and
submitted all necessary City and State application forms. Both are pursuing full liquor licenses.

synopsis of change order #1 outlined below.
Change Order #1 Work:

County requested the reconstructed ped ramps to change the orientation of the push buttons. This
change also required the addition of the push button extenders.

crosswalk blocks were 8’x3’ instead of the anticipated 6’x3’ for a non-trail crossing.
3. Object Marker and Sign Type C increased quantities were at the request of Ramsey County and were
the basis for the plan amendment #2 that was sent to Pember Contractors.
4. The additional Sign Type C and Object Marker sigs required breakaway bases as well.
5. Saw cutting storm sewer structure and doghouse extra hole in the structure at Shorewood Dr needed
because there was no sanitary sewer as expected.
6. The rest of the items in the table were under the contract quantity and total $526.50.
The total requested amount for Change Order #1 is $10,091.00.
The new contract amount is $142,986.15. The original contract amount is $133,421.65.

Background
At the September 20, 2021 Work Session, Council was presented 3 different design options
(Attachment B) for the Snelling Avenue North Improvements project. Within the presentation
was the project background and information about how each option was designed and the
associated costs. Council then directed staff to consider all available design options and host a
Public Open House to receive feedback from Arden Hills’ residents. The Public Open House was
held on October 20, 2021. Staff also had a virtual opportunity for feedback on the project page
on the City website from October 15 to October 24. The comments that were received have been
compiled and provided in Attachment A.
At the November 8, 2021 Work Session, Council was presented the summary of the Open-House
comment period and discussed their preferred design option. From that discussion it was noted
that Council was in favor (5-0) of Design Option 3 and in favor (4-1) of the trail being
constructed on the West side of Snelling Avenue North.

Discussion
To proceed with the overall design of this project, Council will need to decide which of the 3
options to move forward with. If Option 2 or Option 3 are chosen, then Council must decide on
which side of the road the trail will be located, East or West.
Budget Impact
Option 1 Option 2 Option3
The project has a budget of $1,250,000 which includes contingencies for construction, materials

SUMMARY OF PUBLIC INPUT RECEIVED
Speeding is a
major concern
Option 3’s benefits
outweigh the costs
There is a lack
of lighting along
the corridor
Safe pedestrian and
bicycle infrastructure
is a necessity
Pedestrians and bicyclists
feel very unsafe traveling
through the corridor
The corridor is a key
connector to parks,
trails, schools, and
businesses in the area
Many people walk and bike
along through the corridor,
especially families with
young children
Concerns about how the
walk/trail will be impacted
by the future project’s
proposed roundabout

Council Should Consider
Motions to approve, table, or deny the following:
• Resolution 2021-072 Approving the 2022 – 2023 Collective Bargaining Agreement with
IUOE Local 49.
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Discussion
The Public Works Union contract is up at the end of this year, City Staff and the Union have been in
negotiations for a new contract. A draft of the contract was brought forward for Council to review at
a work session in September. Following that work session, Council directed staff to finalize the
contract and bring it forward for final approval at a future meeting. The City Attorney has reviewed
the updated contract. A summary of the major changes from the previous contract can be found
below:
-Wages: the only changes made to the wages was a three percent cost of living adjustment (COLA) in
both 2022 and 2023. The three percent increase is about the average of surrounding cities for both
years. This equates to an estimated $17,600 total increase in expenditures for 2022.
-Uniform allowance: A $25 increase in the uniform allowance ($600 up to $625) is included in the
contract, which equates to a net increase of $200 for the 2022 year.
-Local Training Center: The City will also be providing a contribution to the local training center
based on regular hours worked at .20 cents per hour in 2022 and .25 cents per hour in 2023.
Assuming a full time crew throughout the year, this will equate to $3,328 and $4,160 in 2022 and
2023, respectively. This allows members of the crew to take advantage of training opportunities at the
training center at a reduced cost to the City.

MEMORANDUM
Page 2
-Fleet Maintenance Lead: the City worked with the Union to develop a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU), which establishes a lead position for fleet maintenance on the crew. The new
MOU is part of the new contract (see clean version Attachment B). This position will ensure ongoing
preventative maintenance is performed to extend the useful life of the City’s fleet, and will lead to a
cost savings by bringing certain items in house, such as, oil and tire changes.
-Misc. items: other items were updated in the contract that do not have significant budget impact or
were housekeeping items, such as, updating the Central Pension Fund language and removing the
HCSP contract language. Budget Impact
The major budget impacts are listed above, but in total, the updated Union Contract is anticipated
to increase the City’s expenditures by approximately $25,918 across various funds.

5.4 Procedure
Grievances, as defined by Section 5.1 shall be resolved in conformance with
the following procedure:
Step 1. An employee claiming a violation concerning the interpretation or
application of this AGREEMENT shall, within ten (10) calendar days after such alleged
2
violation has occurred present such grievance to the employee's supervisor as designated
by the EMPLOYER. The EMPLOYER-designated representative will discuss and give an
answer to such Step 1 grievance within ten (10) calendar days after receipt. A grievance
not resolved in Step 1 and appealed to Step 2 shall be placed in writing setting forth the
nature of the grievance, the facts on which it is based, the provision or provisions of the
Agreement allegedly violated, and the remedy requested, and shall be appealed to Step 2
within ten (10) calendar days after the EMPLOYER-designated representative's final
answer in Step 1. Any grievance not appealed in writing to Step 2 by the UNION within ten
(10) calendar days shall be considered waived.
Step 2. If appealed, the written grievance shall be presented by the UNION and
discussed with the EMPLOYER-designated Step 2 representative. The EMPLOYER-
designated representative shall give the UNION the EMPLOYER'S Step 2 answer in
writing within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of such Step 2 grievance. A grievance
not resolved in Step 2 may be appealed to Step 3 within ten (10) calendar days following
the EMPLOYER-designated representative's final Step 2 answer. Any grievance not
appealed in writing to Step 3 by the UNION within ten (10) calendar days shall be
considered waived.
Step 3. If appealed, the written grievance shall be presented by the UNION and
discussed with the EMPLOYER-designated Step 3 representative. The EMPLOYER-
designated representative shall give the UNION the EMPLOYER'S answer in writing
within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of such Step 3 grievance. A grievance not
resolved in Step 3 may be appealed to Step 4 within ten (10) calendar days following
the EMPLOYER-designated representative's final answer in Step 3. Any grievance not
appealed in writing to Step 4 by the UNION within ten (10) calendar days shall be
considered waived.
Step 4. A grievance unresolved in Step 3 and appealed to Step 4 shall be
submitted to the Minnesota Bureau of Mediation Services. A grievance not resolved in

EMPLOYER'S final answer in Step 4. Any grievance not appealed in writing to Step 5 by
the UNION within ten (10) calendar days shall be considered waived.
Step 5. A grievance unresolved in Step 4 and appealed to Step 5 shall be
submitted to arbitration. The arbitration proceeding shall be conducted by an arbitrator to
be selected by mutual agreement of the EMPLOYER and the UNION within seven (7)
calendar days after the request for such action. If the parties fail to mutually agree upon
an arbitrator within the said seven (7) day period, either party may request the Director,
Bureau of Mediation Services, to provide a panel of five (5) arbitrators. Both the
EMPLOYER and the UNION shall have the right to strike two (2) names from panel. The
party requesting arbitration shall strike the first name, the other party shall then strike one
(1) name and the process will be repeated and the remaining person shall be the
arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties. The
arbitrator shall be requested to issue a decision within thirty (30) calendar days after the
close of the record unless the parties mutually agree to an extension.
5.5 Arbitrator's Authority
A. The arbitrator shall have no right to amend, modify, nullify, ignore, add to or
subtract from the terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT. The arbitrator
shall consider and decide only the specific issue(s) submitted in writing by the
EMPLOYER and the UNION, and shall have no authority to make a decision
on any other issue not so submitted.
3
The arbitrator shall be without power to make decisions contrary to, or inconsistent
with, or modifying or varying in any way, the application of laws, rules, or
regulations having the force and effect of law. The arbitrator's decision shall be
submitted in writing within thirty (30) days following the close of the hearing or the
submission of briefs by the parties, whichever be later, unless the parties agree to
any extension. The decision shall be binding on both the EMPLOYER and the
UNION and shall be based solely on the arbitrator's interpretation or application of
the express terms of this AGREEMENT and to the facts of the grievance
presented.
C. The fees and expenses for the arbitrator's services and proceedings shall be
borne equally by the EMPLOYER and the UNION, provided that each party shall
be responsible for compensating its own representatives and witnesses. If either
party desires a verbatim record of the proceedings, it may cause such a record to
be made, providing it pays for the record. If both parties desire a verbatim record
of the proceedings, the cost shall be shared equally.
5.6 Waiver
If a grievance is not presented within the time limits set forth above, it shall be considered
"waived". If a grievance is not appealed to the next step within the specified time limit or
agreed extension thereof, it shall be considered settled on the basis of the EMPLOYERS
last answer. If the EMPLOYER does not answer a grievance or an appeal thereof within
the specified time limits, the UNION may elect to treat the grievance as denied at that
step and immediately appeal the grievance to the next step. The time limit in each step
may be extended by mutual agreement of the EMPLOYER and the UNION.

28.1 Any and all prior agreements, resolutions, practices, policies, rules and regulations
regarding terms and conditions of employment, to the extent inconsistent with
the provisions of this AGREEMENT, are hereby superseded.
28.2 The parties mutually acknowledge that during the negotiations which resulted in this
AGREEMENT, each had the unlimited right and opportunity to make demands and
proposals with respect to any term or condition of employment not removed by law from
bargaining. All agreements and understandings arrived at by the parties are set forth in
writing in this AGREEMENT for the stipulated duration of this AGREEMENT. The
EMPLOYER and the UNION each voluntarily and unqualifiedly waives the right to meet
and negotiate regarding any and all terms and conditions of employment referred to or
covered in this AGREEMENT, or with respect to any term or condition of employment
not specifically referred to or covered by this AGREEMENT, even though such terms or
conditions may not have been within the knowledge or contemplation of either or both
parties at the time this contract was negotiated or executed.
ARTICLE XXX — CENTRAL PENSION FUND
The EMPLOYER and the UNION agree that an amount designated herein that would otherwise
be paid in salary or wages will be contributed instead to the Central Pension Fund (CPF) as
pretax employer contributions. A pension contribution of ninety-six cents ($0.96) per hour will be
made for each employee, for a maximum of two thousand eighty hours (2080) per calendar year.
The hourly contribution rate will be applied to every hour compensated (i.e. Hours worked, PTO,
and holidays) except for overtime hours worked. The EMPLOYER shall deduct seventy-six
dollars and eighty cents ($76.80) every eight (80) hour pay period.
The EMPLOYER shall pay this contribution directly to the IUOE Central Pension Fund. The
UNION agrees to indemnify and hold the EMPLOYER, its Officers, Agents, and employees
harmless against any claims, suits, orders or judgments, brought against the EMPLOYER as a
result of any action taken or not taken by the EMPLOYER on the specific provisions of this Article.
This "hold harmless" clause does not hold the EMPLOYER harmless for failing to transfer the
agreed contributions to the IUOE Central Pension Fund.
It is agreed that for purposes of determining future wage rates, the EMPLOYER shall first restore
the amount of the wage reduction, which is currently the CPF contribution rate of $0.96 per hour,
then apply the applicable wage multiplier, then reduce the revised wage by the CPF contribution
rate. It is further agreed that for purposes of calculating overtime compensation the EMPLOYER
shall first restore the amount of the wage reduction ($0.96/ hr.) then apply th e applicable 1.5 or
2.0 wage multiplier required under the Fair Labor Standards Act and the collective bargaining
agreement, then pay the resulting amount for overtime worked.
The contribution of $0.96 per hour prevents an employee's annual CPF contributions from
exceeding $2,000.00 in a year and therefore complies with limitations set forth under Minnesota
Statute § 356.24, sub. 1(9) as amended in 2002. The CPF Plan of Benefits and the Agreement
and Declaration of Trust will serve as the governing documents. The CPF is a supplemental
Pension Fund authorized by Minnesota Statutes, 356.24, subdivision 1(9).
The City of Arden Hills agrees to participate in the Central Pension Fund of the International Union
of Operating Engineers and Participating Employers (“Central Pension Fund”) in accordance with
the terms of the Restated Agreement and Declaration Trust of the Central Pension, the Plan of
Benefits, and this Memorandum of Understanding.
1. Minnesota Statute § 356.24, Subd. 1(10) expressly authorizes the Employer to contribute
public funds to the Central Pension Fund as a supplemental pension plan for the
employees of a governmental subdivision who are covered by a collective bargaining
agreement that provides for such coverage.
2. Sections 4.1 of the Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the Central Pension
Fund and 13.01 of the Plan of Benefits only permits Employer Contributions to the Fund.
3. The Parties agree that the agreed upon Employer contribution amount that would
otherwise be paid in salary or wages will be contributed instead to the CPF as a pre-tax
Employer contribution. Contributions from the Employer will not be funded from any
other source unless agreed upon by the parties.
4. The hourly contribution rate will be applied to every hour compensated (i.e. hours
worked, vacation, holiday and sick time) except for overtime hours worked. The Employer
shall remit this contribution directly to the Central Pension Fund at 4115 Chesapeake
Street N.W., Washington D.C. 20016.
5. A contribution of $2.40 per straight time hour worked prevents annual Central Pension
Fund contributions on behalf of eligible Employees from exceeding $5,000.00 in a year 13
and therefore complies with the limitations set forth under Minnesota Statute, §356.24,
Subd. 1(10) as amended.
6. For purposes of determining future wage rates, the Employer shall first restore the
amount of the Employer Contribution, which is currently the CPF contribution rate of
($2.40) per hour, then apply the applicable wage multiplier, then reduce the revised wage
by the Central Pension Fund contribution rate.
7. For purposes of calculating overtime compensation, the Employer shall first restore the
amount of the Employer Contribution ($2.40) then apply the applicable 1.5 wage
multiplier required under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and the Collective Bargaining
Agreement, then pay the resulting amount for overtime worked.
8. The Parties agree that the Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) interprets
Employer contributions to the Central Pension Fund as b eing included in determining
“salary” for the purposes of the public pension.
9. The parties agree to abide by the terms and conditions of the Restated Agreement and
Declaration of Trust and the Plan of Benefits of the Central Pension Fund.
10. Effective January 1, 2022 the contribution rate equals ($2.40) per (straight time hour
worked/straight time hour paid/all hours compensated).

Grievances, as defined by Section 5.1 shall be resolved in conformance with the
following procedure:
Step 1. An employee claiming a violation concerning the interpretation or
application of this AGREEMENT shall, within ten (10) calendar days after such alleged
violation has occurred present such grievance to the employee's supervisor as designated by

considered waived.
Step 2. If appealed, the written grievance shall be presented by the UNION and
discussed with the EMPLOYER-designated Step 2 representative. The EMPLOYER-
designated representative shall give the UNION the EMPLOYER'S Step 2 answer in writing
within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of such Step 2 grievance. A grievance not resolved
in Step 2 may be appealed to Step 3 within ten (10) calendar days following the EMPLOYER-

Step 3. If appealed, the written grievance shall be presented by the UNION and
discussed with the EMPLOYER-designated Step 3 representative. The EMPLOYER-
designated representative shall give the UNION the EMPLOYER'S answer in writing
within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of such Step 3 grievance. A grievance not

considered waived.
Step 4. A grievance unresolved in Step 3 and appealed to Step 4 shall be submitted

said seven (7) day period, either party may request the Director, Bureau of Mediation
Services, to provide a panel of five (5) arbitrators. Both the EMPLOYER and the UNION shall
have the right to strike two (2) names from panel. The party requesting arbitration shall strike
the first name, the other party shall then strike one (1) name and the process will be repeated
and the remaining person shall be the arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final
and binding upon the parties. The arbitrator shall be requested to issue a decision within thirty
(30) calendar days after the close of the record unless the parties mutually agree to an
extension.
5.5 Arbitrator's Authority
A. The arbitrator shall have no right to amend, modify, nullify, ignore, add to or
subtract from the terms and conditions of this AGREEMENT. The arbitrator shall
consider and decide only the specific issue(s) submitted in writing by the

equally by the EMPLOYER and the UNION, provided that each party shall be
responsible for compensating its own representatives and witnesses. If either party
desires a verbatim record of the proceedings, it may cause such a record to be made,
providing it pays for the record. If both parties desire a verbatim record of the
proceedings, the cost shall be shared equally.

If a grievance is not presented within the time limits set forth above, it shall be considered
"waived". If a grievance is not appealed to the next step within the specified time limit or
agreed extension thereof, it shall be considered settled on the basis of the EMPLOYERS last
answer. If the EMPLOYER does not answer a grievance or an appeal thereof within the
specified time limits, the UNION may elect to treat the grievance as denied at that step and
immediately appeal the grievance to the next step. The time limit in each step may be
extended by mutual agreement of the EMPLOYER and the UNION.

The City of Arden Hills agrees to participate in the Central Pension Fund of the International Union

1. Minnesota Statute § 356.24, Subd. 1(10) expressly authorizes the Employer to contribute
public funds to the Central Pension Fund as a supplemental pension plan for the
employees of a governmental subdivision who are covered by a collective bargaining
agreement that provides for such coverage.

vacation, holiday and sick time) except for overtime hours worked. The Employer shall
14
remit this contribution directly to the Central Pension Fund at 4115 Chesapeake Street
N.W., Washington D.C. 20016.
5. A contribution of $2.40 per straight time hour worked prevents annual Central Pension
Fund contributions on behalf of eligible Employees from exceeding $5,000.00 in a year

Subd. 1(10) as amended.
6. For purposes of determining future wage rates, the Employer shall first restore the amount
of the Employer Contribution, which is currently the CPF contribution rate of ($2.40) per
hour, then apply the applicable wage multiplier, then reduce the revised wage by the
Central Pension Fund contribution rate.
7. For purposes of calculating overtime compensation, the Employer shall first restore the
amount of the Employer Contribution ($2.40) then apply the applicable 1.5 wage multiplier
required under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and the Collective Bargaining
Agreement, then pay the resulting amount for overtime worked.
8. The Parties agree that the Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) interprets
Employer contributions to the Central Pension Fund as being included in determining
“salary” for the purposes of the public pension.
9. The parties agree to abide by the terms and conditions of the Restated Agreement and
Declaration of Trust and the Plan of Benefits of the Central Pension Fund.
10. Effective January 1, 2022 the contribution rate equals ($2.40) per (straight time hour

SUBJECT: CDBG Agreement
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source:
N/A N/A N/A
Council Should Consider
Motions to approve, table, or deny the following:
• Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) agreement with Ramsey County.
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Discussion
The City applied for CDBG funds earlier this year for the upcoming park renovations at Arden
Manor Park. The City was notified by the County that it was awarded the grant earlier this year. As
this grant comes from Federal Funds, there are a lot of moving pieces to it and the City reached out to
HR Green to guide the City through the process. The Council recently approved a contract with HR
Green to lead the project for the City. In order to continue the project, the City needs to sign the grant
agreement, which is attached. The City Attorney has reviewed the document.
Budget Impact
The project, which is primarily funded via the grant ($180,000 in grant money and $60,000 in
City money) is budgeted for in 2022; however, the signing of the grant agreement itself does not
impact the budget.

3). The purpose of section 3 is to ensure that employment and other economic
opportunities generated by HUD assistance or HUD-assisted projects covered by section 3,
shall, to the greatest extent feasible, be directed to low- and very low-income persons,
particularly persons who are recipients of HUD assistance for housing.
B. The parties to this contract agree to comply with HUD’s regulations in 24 CFR part 135,
which implement section 3. As evidenced by their execution of this contract, the parties to
this contract certify that they are under no contractual or other impediment that would

which the contractor has a collective bargaining agreement or other understanding, if any,
a notice advising the labor organization or workers' representative of the contractor’s
commitments under this section 3 clause, and will post copies of the notice in conspicuous
places at the work site where both employees and applicants for training and employment
positions can see the notice. The notice shall describe the section 3 preference, shall set
forth minimum number and job titles subject to hire, availability of apprenticeship and
training positions, the qualifications for each, and the name and location of the person(s)
taking applications for each of the positions, and the anticipated date the work shall begin.

finding that the subcontractor is in violation of the regulations in 24 CFR part 135. The
contractor will not subcontract with any subcontractor where the contractor has notice or
knowledge that the subcontractor has been found in violation of the regulations in 24 CFR

positions, that are filled (1) after the contractor is selected but before the contract is
executed, and (2) with persons other than those to whom the regulations of 24 CFR part
135 require employment opportunities to be directed, were not filled to circumvent the
contractor’s obligations under 24 CFR part 135.

termination of this contract for default, and debarment or suspension from future HUD
assisted contracts.

This is one of our three large dump trucks used primarily for plowing and de-icing streets. While the mileage on this vehicle is relatively low, due
to the corrosiveness of salt, the frame and bodies are beginning to deteriorate. With only three dump trucks in the snow plow fleet it is imperative

Description
The City and County have identified improvements for the intersection of County Road E and Old Snelling Road, including the potential
construction of a roundabout. The Ramsey County TIP currently identifies project funding for this intersection improvement. The anticipated
improvements include the following:
- Construction of a single lane roundabout at the intersection of County Road E and Old Snelling Avenue in partnership with Ramsey County;
- Replacement of watermain, sanitary sewer and storm sewer based on a condition assessment.
Project #23-Str-002
Priority 3 Important
Justification
Sanitary sewer within the intersection is identified as an elevated priority for repairs/replacement. The County has identified segments for storm
sewer within the intersection and extending north as needing replacement. A 2018 Intersection Control Evaluation study evaluated intersection
options, including a 4-Way Stop, Traffic Signal, and Roundabout, and recommended construction of a single lane roundabout.
