PROGRAM PLAN
In planning for future recreation programs, I am placing an
emphasis on accommodating working parents. Thus, if possible,
• programs will be offered in the evening or weekends when parents
are able' to bring their children. Afterschool programs will
continue at Valentine Hills Elementary and Island Lake. These
programs are one-two hours in length.
Expanded Programming will continue in these areas:
Vacation Day Trips/Events when kids are off school.
Holiday Classes; craft & cooking
Tennis - with more courts at Mounds View High School
we can run additional lessons and also offer tournaments.
Safety Camp - 3 days rather than 2
Gymnastics-work with Turner's Gymnastics to offer more levels
from certified instructors.
Possible New Programs
Breakfast with Santa
Soccer and T-Ball - Instructional Mini-camps in the Spring.
Hockey, Basketball, Wrestling - not to compete with the
associations, but to provide a non-competitive
opportunity for those who don't participate in the
youth association, but want to learn the rules and
skills of the sport.
An emphasis will also be placed on providing equal opportunities
. for girl's athletics. 1992 was the first year for organized
fastpitch Softball in the Mounds View School District. The Parks
and Recreation Departments took the responsibility of getting the
program going. In 1993 , the parents plan to organize into an
association. I have been working with them and will continue to do
SO. I want to make sure the program is a quality one and that
everyone has a chance to participate. They will continue to use
the Mounds View High School fields which we maintain during the
summer months.
Facilities or lack thereof, continue to be the biggest programming
obstacle. The use of the Army Reserve Center has provided
indoor classroom and cafeteria space 3 evenings a week. There
is still a need for a community type of room on weekends and
also Monday-Friday during the daytime hours. If we had access
to a Community Room, programs could be offered at the facility
on a vacation day or part of a day. It would also be possible
to run programs for pre-school aged children during the day.
Our other big need at this time is additional softball fields.
Demands for fields continue to increase. The addition of 3 or 4
adult fenced fields would give our existing youth programs the
quality fields they need and deserve. The addition of adult fields
that are fenced can bring in additional revenue by expanding our
program and running tournaments.
• Your comments and suggestions on programming possibilities are
always welcomed. Please feel free to call me at any time.

MEMORANDUK
DATE: December 23, 1992
TO: John T. Buckley, Parks and Recreation Director
FRCM: Cindy Severtson, Program Supervisor
suBJECT: program Fund #226, Budget Update
The following charts provide information on the financial status of both
revenues and expenditures in fund #226 as of November 30, 1992.
The revenue chart breaks down the total revenue received from program
fees thus far. Programs are classified into Adult, Youth, Afterschool,
Special Events and Totals. (Pages 56 and 57 of the 1992 budget provided
a detailed list of the programs that fall into these categories.)
Within these categories, you will find the amount budgeted, actual
numbers to this date and the variance--positive or negative. As seen by
the total variance column, fund #226 is ahead of the budgeted $72,590 by
6 006. There will be some additional revenue in December.
The revenue chart also includes a separate line on contributions.
Contributions are over the budgeted amount by $392. Contributions were
received from the Light Brigade and the North Suburban Youth
Association.
The second chart shows the 1992 Expenditures for fund #226. Again,
columns are divided into Adult, Youth, Afterschool, Special Events and
Totals. The total expenditure column indicates that as of November 30,
fund #226 is in the black $9,099 from the budgeted amount, taking into
consideration direct costs to run each program. Permanent staff
FICA/PERA, health insurance, office supplies, postage, travel,
conferences and schools are not included on this chart. My intent is to
give an indication of where the fund is at with respect to these direct
costs to run each program.
I am responsible for the line items listed on the expenditure chart with
the exception chart of Adult Sports Equipment which includes all
materials needed for the Adult Softball program and the Adaptive
Recreation, which includes the Special Olympics track program John runs.
Should you have any questions, please contact me. All of the
information used was taken from the November 30, 1992 Audit file. I
will update the chart at year end.

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS
MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 23 , 1991
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: John T. Buckley, Parks Director
SUBJECT: Long Range Park Fund Plan
The Park Fund is a special Fund established by the City Council
in the early 1970 ' s. Revenue for this Park Fund comes from park
dedication fees, interest earned from park fund, gifts/
contributions, and charitable gambling proceeds. Expenses for
park and trail acquisition and development are charged to this
Fund .
Over $1, 200, 000 in money, park land, and trails have been
received from the revenue resources . The City of Arden Hills
has been able to acquire and develop a park system containing 11
• neighborhood parks, two nature preserves, and a City-wide
pedestrian trail system and maintain a balance of $518 , 127 as of
December 31, 1990 . The management of the Parks Fund will be
critical to the City' s financing future park and trail
improvements.
TJ Swanson has programmed several Park Fund financial models to
consider for long term management. The models have five
components:
Revenue - A. Park dedication receipts.
B. Interest income.
C. Gifts/contributions.
D. Transfer from General Fund.
Expense - E. Yearly expenditure for park maintenance and
improvements .
PARR FUND INCOME
• Park Dedication Receipts
Park dedication fees have been the major source of revenue for
the Park Fund for the past 15 years. The City is near full
development; therefore, this income will run out in five years.
Future dedication income:
1991-$32 , 236 1992-$23 ,400 1993-$6, 800
1994-$ 5, 150 1995-$ 825
Interest Income
Park Fund Balance is the driving force for determining the
growth of Future Fund balance and growth in interest earnings .
Model 8 programs the Fund Balance to grow $10, 000 annually.
Model 9 programs the Fund Balance to grow by $25 , 000 annually.
Contributions/Gifts
Over $150 , 000 in charitable gambling proceeds have been paid
into the Park Fund over the past five years. A change in method
of collection has reduced current income. The Light Brigade is
• presently contributing $1, 000 per month to the Park Fund.
General Fund Transfer
The amount of money transferred annually from the General Fund
will be determined by:
- money received from other resources (interest, park
dedications, contributions) .
- the desired rate of Park Fund growth over the next 5, 10 , 25
years.
- The level of expenditures needed for yearly park development
and improvement.
Park Development/Improvement Expenses
The 5 year Park Improvement Plan Proposal (Exhibit B) :
1992 - $50, 323 1993 - $55, 000
1994 - $58 , 792 1995 - $55, 000
If annual expenses are kept under $60, 000, the Park Fund balance
will increase steadily over the next 25 years. As the Fund
balance grows, interest income will also grow, therefore,
• decreasing the yearly transfers.
• This long range plan does not address the financing of an
athletic field complex. This major project could be financed by
drawing down the Park Fund, borrowing from other City funds,
gifts and contributions, selling revenue bonds, or grants.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend the Council consider Model 9 for managing the Park
Fund.
- Model 9 provides sufficient money for yearly park
development and improvements.
- Provides steady growth in Fund balance and interest.
- Fund will have sufficient balance in 25 years to finance

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS
• MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 8 , 1991
TO: John Buckley, Parks Director
FROM: TJ Woulfe Swanson
SUBJECT: Park Fund Financial Models
Attached are three models I have put together at the direction of
the Mayor, Council and yourself.
The following items are assumptions which were made for all of the
models :
1 . All receipts are received at the beginning of the year.
2 . All payments are made at the beginning of the year_
3 . The rate of interest is 6 1/2% .
4 . Within six years, there will be no nark dedication monies .
• 5 . Within 2 years, park maintenance salaries will no longer be
charged to the Park Fund. The salary figures in year 1 and 2
are based on 1990 actual wages, with a 4% cost of living
increase included for year 2 .
6 . Park maintenance and improvement costs of $60 , 000 each year
are maintenance costs for current park areas and structures .
Model 7 is intended to keep the fund balance of the Park Fund
relatively constant. This model would need a $10 , 000 transfer from
the General Fund in years 3 and 4 as the park dedication monies
begin to decrease. Then beginning in year 5 and continuing through
the length of the model, the General Fund would need to transfer
$15 , 000 to replace the park dedication monies which have been
depleted. This model does not allow for any development of current
or future parks within the City without depleting the fund balance.
Model 8 is intended to increase the fund balance of the Park Fund
by approximately $10 , 000 each year. This model requires a $7 , 000
transfer from the General Fund in year 2 , which would jump to
$18 , 000 in year 3 and gradually increase to $23 , 000 in year 6 .
These transfers again are necessary to offset the depleted park
dedication monies. In year 7 , the transfer in from the General
Fund begins to decrease because the interest income is increasing
due to the compounding of interest as the fund balance grows.
This model gradually increases the fund balance over a period of
several years "which will allow for some expenditures towards
developing new or current parks within the City approximately 25-30
years down the road.
• Model 9 is intended to increase the fund balance of the Park Fund
by approximately $25 , 000 each year. This model requires
substantially larger transfers from the General Fund compared to
the two previous models ; however, the fund balance at the end of
year 35 is almost twice the size of model 8 and more than three
times the size of model 7 .
The General Fund would need to transfer money into the Park Fund
beginning with year 2 . The transfer in will gradually increase
until year 6 when the transfer begins to decrease. In- year 2'8 of
the model, the general fund transfer is no longer needed because
again the interest income is increasing due to the compounding of
interest as the fund balance grows. Once the general fund
transfers have stopped, the interest income continues to increase
each year on its own. In years 28-35 of model 9 , the interest
income grows at approximately $2 , 000 more than the previous year ' s
amount.
This model would allow for significantly more expenditures towards
the development of the City ' s current parks or for development of
new parks within the City. This model, over time, could become
self-sustaining.
If you have any questions on any of these models, I am available at
• any time to answer your questions.

Rec Program Participation Hits an All T}me High-
04
The spirit of participation is alive eli well Arden Hills. over
the last 0 years, enrollment in Parks & Re eation programs has
risen by more than O percent.
John Buckley, Parks & Recreation director, attributes much of the
increase in participation to the efforts of Cindy Severtson, '
program supervisor: "Cindy has done a good job in selecting
activities that hit a hot button for people. She has also made a
strong effort to include the working family in her programs--
offering classes on weekends, in the evenings, after school and
on school holidays. "
David Sand, chairperson of the Parks & Recreation citizen
committee agrees. "Not only are there more programs to choose
from than in past years, the quality of the programs has WOOwn. "
Sand points out the variety of classes available--such as acting,
fishing, golf, keyboard, ceramics, hunter education, and
adventure outings--above and beyond the traditional sports
programs you might expect.
However, children and teens aren't the only people benefitting
from the diversity of program options. The Parks & Recreation
• department offers a number of adult programs including craft
classes, athletic events and day trips to points of interest
throughout Minnesota.
With the increase in program offerings, classroom space was
becoming a problem. But thanks to an arrangement with the Arden
Hills U.S. Army Reserve Center, many of the programs are now held
at #izat facility on Lexington and Highway 96.

PUBLIC LAW 102-426 [H.R. 40161; October 19, 1992
COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSE
FACILITATION ACT
For Legislative History of Act, see Report for P.L. 102-426
in U.S.C.C. & A.N. Legislative History Section.
An Act to amend the Comprehensive Environmental Response,Compensation,.and liability Act
of 1980 to require the Federal Government,before termination of Federal activities on any _,
real property owned by the Government, to identify real property where no hazardous
substance was stored, released, or disposed of.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of
the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION I.SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the "Community Environmental
Response Facilitation Act".
SEC.2.FINDINGS.
The Congress finds the following:
(1) The closure of certain Federal facilities is having ;
adverse effects on the economies of local communities by �!
eliminating jobs associated with such facilities, and delay in
remediation of environmental contamination of real property
at such facilities is preventing transfer and private development
of such property.
(2) Each department, agency, or instrumentality of the
United States, in cooperation with local communities, should
expeditiously identify real property that offers the greatest
opportunity for reuse and redevelopment on each facility under
the jurisdiction of the department, agency, or instrumentality
where operations are terminating.
(3) Remedial actions, including remedial investigations and
feasibility studies, and corrective actions at such Federal facili-
ties should be expedited in a manner to facilitate environmental
protection and the sale or transfer of such excess real property
for the purpose of mitigating adverse economic effects on the
surrounding community.
(4) Each department, agency, or instrumentality of the
United States, in accordance with applicable law, should make
available without delay such excess real property.
(5) In the case of any real property owned by the United
States and transferred to another person, the United States
Government should remain responsible for conducting any
remedial action or corrective action necessary to protect human
health and the environment with respect to any hazardous
substance or petroleum product or its derivatives, including
aviation fuel and motor oil, that was present on such real
property at the time of transfer.

LEAD
•President Sips Lead Bill: On October 29,President Bush signed into law the"Housing and Community Development Act of 1992"
(HJL 5334). Included as Title X is the "Residential Lead-Based Paint Hazard Reduction Act of,1992 which is intended to reduce
lead-teased paint hazards for those in high-risk categories such as children under the age of seven and pregnant women. The law
incorporates most of the provisions included in the"National Affordable Housing Act Amendments of 1992" (S;3031)and approved
by the Se=e ui Jwic (Sce tlic AL;;;- Z.. iionni�ental UGn'l.i O Also included in the iaW are �ci�ain piOVlSlOnS from a
proposed bill (HR. 5730) introduced by Congressmen Henry Waxman (D-CA) and Al Swift (D-WA) that will (1) require the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to establish or approve state training and certification requirements on lead contractors and
(2) direct the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to issue interim final regulations on acceptable worker
exposure to lead in the construction industry. Because of its emphasis on creating lead-safe, rather than lead-free housing, and its
sensitivity to the impact of the provisions on housing affordability, the legislation has been supported by NMHC, NAA, and other
national real estate organizations who participated actively in drafting and negotiating the legislation.
The following is a brief summary of key provisions that will affect the multifamily industry:
• • The definition of lead-based paint hazard requires a finding of adverse human health effects.
♦ The Act provides grants to states to evaluate and reduce lead-based paint hazards in non-public and non-federally assisted housing.
♦ Owners of assisted housing (i.e. projects receiving $5,000 or more in project-based assistance) must (1) provide tenants with lead
hazard information packets, (2) conduct periodic risk assessments and interim controls pursuant to a schedule to be established by the
Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), (3) inspect for lead-based paint prior to receipt of
federal funds for residential renovation or rehabilitation work that is likely to disturb lead-based painted surfaces,(4)reduce lead-based
paint hazards in the course of rehabilitating projects receiving less than $25,000 per unit, (5) abate lead-based paint hazards when
rehabilitating projects receiving more than$25,000 per unit,and(6)notify tenants when inspections and lead hazard reduction activities
are carried out.
♦ For federally-owned housing, properties must be (1) inspected, and lead-based paint hazards must be abated,by January 1, 1995
for all units built prior to 1960, (2) inspected for lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards by January 1, 1995 for all units built
between 1960 and 1978, and (3) the results of such inspections must be made available to prospective purchasers.
♦ The HUD Secretary is to create an advisory task force that will include representatives of property managers, tenants, primary
lending institutions, private mortgage insurers, single-family and multifamily real estate interests,and others.
♦ The HUD Socretary and EPA AdnunisG3toi must promulgate regt;lauorls within two years that will requim (1) the disclosure of
known lead-based paint or lead-based paint hazards upon the sale or lease of a residential unit, (2) distribution of a lead hazard
information packet,and (3) a 10-day period (unless the parties agree to a shorter time period), prior to completion of sale, to allow
I
rospective purchasers to conduct a lead inspection or risk assessment.
♦ EPA shall write regulations for renovation activities which may create risk of exposure to dangerous levels of lead. Regulations
are to be distributed through hardware stores, employee organizations, trade groups, state and local agencies,and other means.
Although the law authorizes the expenditure of up to $125 million in fiscal year 1993 and$250 million in fiscal year 1994 for grants
for lead-based paint hazard reduction in targeted housing, it does not provide a mechanism to finance lead hazard inspections,
abatement and hazard reduction activities.
• House Fails to Report Lead Legislation: The House failed to act on H.R. 5730, lead legislation reported favorably by the House
Energy and Commerce Committee on August 5. The bill contained provisiors from measures introduced by Congressmen Henry A.
Waxman (D-CA) and Al Swift (D-WA) that had been favorably reported from subcommittee several months earlier. Most
significantly, provisions to address problems arising from lead in water and lead-based paint in housing had been deleted for
jurisdictional reasons. Mr.Waxman intended to offer the housing related lead paint testing and disclosure provisions as an amendment
if H.R. 5730 had come to the House floor. A special NMHC/NAA Lead-Based Paint Task Force had worked closely with
Mr. Waxman's staff and had won significant improvements to these provisions. The task force included leading multifamily housing
professionals and attorneys from various parts of the country. The changes would have considerably improved the impact of the
proposed legislation on the multifamily industry. Sponsors of the legislation, however, ran short of time and were unable to cause
devise ways to minimize the economic impact the extension of the permitting requirements would have on these facilities and activities.
Efforts are being made to develop a regulatory program that would require cost-effective control strategies and that would keep at a
*6P929
um the administrative burden on federal,state and local governments. Additional information may be obtained by call ng (202)
or by calling EPA's storm water hotline at (703) 821-4823.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Although the Senate approved legislation last year (S. 455) that would have (1) funded research into the causes and cures of indoor
air pollution, (2) provided money for indoor air quality diagnosis, mitigation programs and educational activities, and (3) caused the
publication and distribution of educational materials on the causes, effects and solutions to indoor air pollution, the sponsors of a
similar bill in the House (H.R. 1066) failed to complete work on their measure before Congress adjourned. Indoor air pollution is
considered by many to be the source of numerous environmental health problems and has served as the basis for an increasing number
of lawsuits against building owners. It is likely to receive careful attention by the next Congress.
MULTIFAMILY ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS
A subcommittee of the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) has completed work on a national standard for conducting
environmental assessments of commercial real estate transactions. The procedures are intended to define what inquiries must be made
by real estate purchasers, and those that make loans for such acquisitions, in order to avoid liability under CERCLA for cleaning up
environmental hazards left on properties by previous owners. The document contains two separate approaches to analyzing
environmental hazards on real property. The first is a transaction screening document designed for use by those who do not have
environmental training but who,due to the size and nature of the transaction,desire to use the more cost-effective transaction screen
which permits an environmental investigation of the prospective property without the assistance of an environmental professional. The
second part of the standard establishes procedures for Phase I environmental site analyses to be carried out by an environmental expert
The guidelines must now be voted on by ASTM as a whole. It is expected that the procedures will gain final approval early in 1993.
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
ern over adverse health effects caused by radiation from electromagnetic fields(E AF)has grown in the scientific community and
been the basis for sevaal lawsuits alleging cancels caused by the close proximity of power lines to homes and apartments. As
a result,all levels of government-- federal, state, and local — have been studying the issue and debating various proposed pieces of
legislation. Several industry and government studies have been conducted over the past 15 years. with many ,note currently being
carried out. NMHC has compiled a file of relevant materials on EMFs and those members who would like further information on
the subject can contact NMHC Vice President Ronald Nickson at(202) 659-3381.
FIRE-RETARDANT PLYWOOD
A$50 million settlement was reached last week that will directly affect about 11,000 homeowners whose roofs are constructed with
fire-retardant treated (FRT) plywood. The settlement applies to owners of homes built by New Jersey homebuilder K. Hovnanian
Enterprises and is likely to serve as a model for settlement in cases involving approximately 24,000 other homeowners in that state.
Under the settlement, the cost to replace the roofs will be shared among Hovnanian, plywood treatment companies, chemical supply
companies, architects and lumber suppliers. The owners of the homes will also be required to pay between 5200 and $400. New-
home-warrarity companies refused to participate in the settlement. It is expected that they will be sued by the State of New Jersey
which will contribute that portion of the settlement that was expected to have come from such warranty companies. Parties familiar
with the settlement believe it will be difficult to duplicate its success in other parts of the country because,unlike New Jersey, most
states do not have the authority to pursue claims against companies or groups that refuse to participate in such settlements.
FEDERAL PROPERTIES
such
On October 19,President Bush signed legislation (HR.+t%9 'that will make it easier for the government to sell real p roperty,
as closed military bases,that it owns. The law modifies existing environmental Hiles that require clean-up of any environmental hazard
found on the entire property prior to sale of any portion that may otherwise be environmentally clean. It requires agencies terminating
operations on real property to identify those portions of real estate that do not contain hazardous substances(as defined by CERCLA),
troleum products, and to encourage the sale of these parcels. The bill was intended to encourage the redevelopment of these
ore ls to soften the economic impact on local communities caused by the closing of federal facilities.

PARK MAINTENANCE
COMMENTS
The Parks and Recreation Dept. , under Council direction, is responsible
for the maintenance and development of City parks, the promotion and
supervision of leisure time programs. The Parks Committee's 10 year Park
Improvement Program serves as a guide for park and trail development; park
and trail development costs are charged to Park Fund No. 227 and do not
affect the tax levy.
30% of the Park Director's salary and fringe benefits are charged to the
Self-sustaining Recreation Fund.
The 1989 budget provided for three full-time and four part-time summer
employees to maintain parks and athletic fields, and work on trails and
park improvements from May 1 through September. David Winkel divided his
summer time between the shade tree program and park maintenance.
The 1990 budget provides for one additional part-time summer employee in
account 109 "Park Salaries" to maintain the arsenal ball fields. David
Winkel will continue dividing his time between shade tree programs and
park maintenance.
Account 207 "Travel, Conferences, Schools" is increased in 1990 to reflect
Park Director attendance at the National Conference. Account 228 is
increased in 1990 to provide additional maintenance at park shelters. •

SHADE TREE - DISEASE CONTROL
COMMENTS
Due to the drought conditions of 1988, trees were under a great deal of
stress which resulted in increased diseased tree removal in 1989.
City-wide tree surveys and follow-up site inspections will be completed by
September. The number of inspections made by the tree inspector has been
reduced from one wood pile and three City-wide inspections to just one
City inspection in 1989.
Number of Diseased Trees Marked:
Elm Oak
1989 (through 9/1) 86 149
1988 (through 9/1) 27 5

Committee reviewed the City's snow removal policy. The City does not have an

snow removal in 1993.
Committee expressed a need for snow removal:

- In winter these activities move into the streets. (Hamiine & Leximxltcn) -
• Streets are busy and walkers/joggers are in real danger.
- Liability of participants getting hurt when using snow packed sidewalks.
- All the surrounding cities (New Brighton, Roseville and Shoreview) remove
the snow.

PROGRAM PLAN
In planning for future recreation programs, I am placing an
emphasis on accommodating working parents. Thus, if possible,
• programs will be offered in the evening or weekends when parents
are able to bring their children. Afterschool programs will
continue at Valentine Hills Elementary and Island Lake. These
programs are one-two hours in length.
Expanded Programming will continue in these areas:
Vacation Day Trips/Events when kids are off school.
Holiday Classes; craft & cooking
Tennis - with more courts at Mounds View High School
we can run additional lessons and also offer tournaments.
Safety Camp - 3 days rather than 2
Gymnastics-work with Turner' s Gymnastics to offer more levels
from certified instructors.
_Possible New Programs
Breakfast with Santa
Soccer and T-Ball - Instructional Mini-camps in the Spring.
Hockey, Basketball, Wrestling - not to compete with the
associations, but to provide a non-competitive
opportunity for those who don't participate in the
youth association, but want to learn the rules and
skills of the sport.
An emphasis will also be placed on providing equal opportunities
for girl ' s athletics. 1992 was the first year for organized
• fastp itch Softball in the Mounds View School District. The Parks
and Recreation Departments took the responsibility of getting the
program going. In 1993 , the parents plan to organize into an
association. I have been working with them and will continue to do
SO. I want to make sure the program is a quality one and that
everyone has a chance to participate. They will continue to use
the Mounds View High School fields which we maintain during the
summer months.
Facilities or lack thereof, continue to be the biggest programming
obstacle. The use of the Army Reserve Center has provided
indoor classroom and cafeteria space 3 evenings a week. There
is still a need for a community type of room on weekends and
also Monday-Friday during the daytime hours. If we had access
to a Community Room, programs could be offered at the facility
on a vacation day or part of a day. It would also be possible
to run programs for pre-school aged children during the day.
Our other big need at this time is additional softball fields .
Demands for fields continue to increase. The addition of 3 or 4
adult fenced fields would give our existing youth programs the
quality fields they need and deserve. The addition of adult fields
that are fenced can bring in additional revenue by expanding our
program and running tournaments.
Your comments and suggestions on programming possibilities are
• always welcomed. Please feel free to call me at any time.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: December 23, 1992
TO: John T. Buckley, Parks and Recreation Director
FRa4: Cindy Severtson, Program SVetvisor
sUBJEC-T: program Fund #226, Budget IIPdate
The following charts provide information on the financial status of both
revenues and expenditures in fund J226 as of November 30, 1992.
The revenue chart breaks down the total revenue received from program
fees thus far. Programs are classified into Adult, Youth, Afterschool,
Special Events and Totals. (Pages 56 and 57 of the 1992 budget provided
a detailed list of the programs that fall into these categories.)
Within these categories, you will find the amount budgeted, actual
numbers to this date and the variance--positive or negative. As seen by
the total variance column, fund 0226 is ahead of the budgeted $72,590 by
$6,006. There will be some additional revenue in December.
The revenue chart also includes a separate line on contributions.
Contributions are over the budgeted amount by $392. Contributions were
received from the Light Brigade and the North Suburban Youth
Association.
The second =.hart shows the 1992 Expenditures for fund 0226. Again,
columns are divided into Adult, Youth, Afterschool, Special Events and
Totals. The total expenditure column indicates that as of November 30,
fund ;226 is in the black $9,099 from the budgeted amount, taking into
consideration direct costs to run each program. Permanent staff
FICA/PERA, health insurance, office supplies, postage, travel,
conferences and schools are not included on this chart. My intent is to
give an indication of where the fund is at with respect to these direct
costs to run each program.
I am responsible for the line items listed on the expenditure chart with
the exception chart of Adult Sports Equipment which includes all
materials needed for the Adult Softball program and the Adaptive
Recreation, which includes the Special Olympics track program John runs.
Should you have any questions, please contact me. All of the
information used was taken from the November 30, 1992 Audit file. I
will update the chart at year end.

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS
MEMORANDUM
DATE: July 23 , 1991
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: John T. Buckley, Parks Director
SUBJECT: Long Range Park Fund Plan
The Park Fund is a special Fund established by the City Council
in the early 1970 ' s . Revenue for this Park Fund comes from park
dedication fees, interest earned from park fund, gifts/
contributions, and charitable gambling proceeds. Expenses for
park and trail acquisition and development are charged to this
Fund.
Over $1, 200 , 000 in money, park land, and trails have been
received from the revenue resources . The City of Arden Hills
• has been able to acquire and develop a park system containing 11
neighborhood parks, two nature preserves, and a City-wide
pedestrian trail system and maintain a balance of $518, 127 as of
December 31, 1990 . The management of the Parks Fund will be
critical to the City' s financing future park and trail
improvements.
TJ Swanson has programmed several Park Fund financial models to
consider for long term management. The models have five
components:
Revenue - A. Park dedication receipts .
B. Interest income.
C. Gifts/contributions.
D. Transfer from General Fund.
Expense - E. Yearly expenditure for park maintenance and
improvements.
•
PARR FUND INCOME
Park Dedication Receipts
Park dedication fees have been the major source of revenue for
the Park Fund for the past 15 years. The City is near full
development; therefore, this income will run out in five years .
Future dedication income:
1991-$32 , 236 1992-$23 ,400 1993-$6 , 800
1994-$ 5 , 150 1995-$ 825
Interest Income
Park Fund Balance is the driving force for determining the
growth of Future Fund balance and growth in interest earnings .
Model 8 programs the Fund Balance to grow $10, 000 annually.
Model 9 programs the Fund Balance to grow by $25 , 000 annually.
Contributions/Gifts
Over $150 , 000 in charitable gambling proceeds have been paid
into the Park Fund over the past five years. A change in method
of collection has reduced current income. The Light Brigade is
• presently contributing $1, 000 per month to the Park Fund.
General Fund Transfer
The amount of money transferred annually from the General Fund
will be determined by:
- money received from other resources (interest, park
dedications, contributions) .
- the desired rate of Park Fund growth over the next 5, 10 , 25
years .
- The level of expenditures needed for yearly park development
and improvement.
Park Development/Improvement Expenses
The 5 year Park Improvement Plan Proposal (Exhibit B) :
1992 - $50 , 323 1993 - $55, 000
1994 - $58 , 792 1995 - $55, 000
If annual expenses are kept under $60, 000, the Park Fund balance
will increase steadily over the next 25 years. As the Fund
balance grows, interest income will also grow, therefore,
• decreasing the yearly transfers.
• This long range plan does not address the financing of an
athletic field complex. This major project could be financed by
drawing down the Park Fund, borrowing from other City funds,
gifts and contributions, selling revenue bonds, or grants .
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend the Council consider Model 9 for managing the Park
Fund.
- Model 9 provides sufficient money for yearly park
development and improvements.
- Provides steady growth in Fund balance and interest.
- Fund will have sufficient balance in 25 years to finance
all park development needs.
- If necessary, the Fund could be used to finance future
major expenditures.

Rec Program Participation Hits an All Time High
The spirit of participation is alive well Arden Hills. Over
the last tom` years, enrollment in Parks & ReCZ'ation programs has
risen by more than O percent.
John Buckley, Parks & Recreation director, attributes much of the
increase in participation to the efforts of Cindy Severtson,
program supervisor: "Cindy has done a good job in selecting
activities that hit a hot button for people. She has also made a
strong effort to include the working family in her programs--
offering classes on weekends, in the evenings, after school and
on school holidays . "
David Sand, chairperson of the Parks & Recreation citizen
committee agrees. "Not only are there more programs to choose
from than in past years, the quality of the programs has n. "
Sand points out the variety of classes available--such as acting,
fishing , golf, keyboard , ceramics, hunter education, and
adventure outings--above and beyond the traditional sports
programs you might expect.
However, children and teens aren 't the only people benefitting
• from the diversity of program options. The Parks & Recreation
department offers a number of adult programs including craft
classes, athletic events and day trips to points of interest
throughout Minnesota.
With the increase in program offerings, classroom space was
becoming a problem. But thanks to an arrangement with the Arden
Hills U. S. Army Reserve Center, many of the programs are now held
at 14aat facility on Lexington and Highway 96.

COMMUNITY ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSE
FACILITATION ACT I'
For Legislative History of Act, see Report for P.L. 102—¢26
in U.S.C.C. & A.N. Legislative History Section.
An Ad to amend the Comprohensive Environmental Response,Compensation,.and liability Act
of 1980 to require the Federal Government,before termination of Federal activities on any
real property owned by the Government, to identify real property where no hazardous ?
substance was stored, released, or disposed of.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of
the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION I.SHORT TITLE. Y
.f
This Act may be cited as the "Community Environmental
Response Facilitation Act".
SEC.2.FINDINGS.
The Congress finds the following: yE
(1) The closure of certain Federal facilities is having
adverse effects on the economies of local communities by _
` eliminating jobs associated with such facilities, and delay in
remediation of environmental contamination of real property
at such facilities is preventing transfer and private development
of such property.
(2) Each department, agency, or instrumentality of the
United States, in cooperation with local communities, should
expeditiously identify real property that offers the greatest
opportunity for reuse and redevelopment on each facility under
the jurisdiction of the department, agency, or instrumentality
where operations are terminating.
(3) Remedial actions, including remedial investigations and
feasibility studies, and corrective actions at such Federal facili-
ties should be expedited in a manner to facilitate environmental
protection and the sale or transfer of such excess real property
for the purpose of mitigating adverse economic effects on the
surrounding community.
(4) Each department, agency, or instrumentality of the
United States, in accordance with applicable law, should make
available without delay such excess real property.
(5) In the case of any real property owned by the United
States and transferred to another person, the United States
Government should remain responsible for conducting any
remedial action or corrective action necessary to protect human
health and the environment with respect to any hazardous
- substance or petroleum product or its derivatives, including
aviation fuel and motor oil, that was present on such real
property at the time of transfer.

(2) direct the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to issue interim final regulations on acceptable worker
exposure to lead in the construction industry. Because of its emphasis on creating lead-safe, rather than lead-fr— housing, and its
sensitivity to the impact of the provisions on housing affordability, the legislation has been supported by NMHC, NAA, and other
national real estate organizations who participated actively in drafting and negotiating the legislation.
• The following is a brief summary of key provisions that will affect the multifamily industry:
• The definition of lead-based paint hazard requires a finding of adverse human health effects.
• The Act provides grants to states to evaluate and reduce lead-based paint hazards in non-public and non-federally assisted housing.
♦ Owners of assisted housing (i.e. projects receiving 55.000 or more in project-based assistance) must (1) provide tenants with lead
hazard information packets. (2) conduct periodic risk assessments and interim controls pursuant to a schedule to be established by the
Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HLTD), (3) inspect for lead-based paint prior to receipt of
federal funds for residential renovation or rehabilitation work that is likely to disturb lead-based painted surfaces, (4) reduce lead-based
paint hazards in the course of rehabilitating projects receiving less than S2_4.000 per unit, (5) abate lead-based paint hazards when
reltabditating projects receiving more than$25,000 per unit,and(6)notify tenants when inspections and lead hazard reduction activities
are carried out.
♦ For federally-owned housing, properties must be (1) inspected, and lead-based paint hazards must be abated, by January 1, 1995
for all units built prior to 1960, (2) inspected for lead-based paint and lead-based paint hazards by January 1, 1995 for all units built
between 1960 and 1978. and (3) the results of such inspections must be made available to prospective purchasers.
♦ The HUD Secretary is to create an advisory task force that will include representatives of property managers, tenants, primary
lending institutions, private mortgage insurers, single-family and multifamily real estate interests, and others.
+ i le HLD SLcrt:"—y and EPA Adnunistatur must promulga;z ;zgul`Uors wit;,in two yea,-s that will rcquirt (1) he dis`iosure cf
known lead-based paint or lead4msed paint hazards upon the sale or lease of a residential unit, (2) distribution of a lead hazard
information packet, and (3) a 10-day period (unless the parties agree to a shorter time period), prior to completion of sale, to allow
prospective purchasers to conduct a lead inspection or risk assessment.
♦ EPA shall write regulations for renovation activities which may create risk of exposure to dangerous levels of lead. Regulations
are to be distributed through hardware stores, employee organizations, trade groups, state and local agencies, and other means.
Although the law authorizes the expenditure of up to S 125 million in fiscal year 1993 and $250 million in fiscal year 1994 for grants
for lead-based paint hazard reduction in targeted housing, it does not provide a mechanism to finance lead hazard inspections,
abatement and hazard reduction activities.
• House Fails to Report Lead Legislation: The House failed to act on H.R. 5730. lead legislation reported favorably by the House
Energy and Commerce Committee on August 5. The bill contained provisions from measures introduced by Congressmen Henry A.
• Waxman (D-CA) and Al Swift (D-WA) that had been favorably reported from subcommittee several months earlier. Most
significantly, provisions to address problems arising from lead in water and lead-based paint in housing had been deleted for
jurisdictional reasons. Mr. Waxman intended to offer the housing related lead paint testing and disclosure provisions as an amendment
if H.R. 5730 had come to the House floor. A special NMHC,NAA Lead-Based Paint Task Force had worked closely with
Mr. Waxman's staff and had won significant improvements to these provisions. The task force included leading multifamily housing
professionals and attorneys from various parts of the country. The changes would have considerably improved the impact of the
proposed legislation on the multifamily industry. Sponsors of the legislation, however, ran short of time and were unable to cause
devise ways to minimize the economic impact the extension of the permitting requirements would have on these facilities and activities.
Efforts are being made to develop a regulatory program that would require cost-effective control strategies and that would keep at a
mum the administrative burden on federal,state and local governments. Additional information may be obtained by calling (202)
W-6929 or by calling EPA's storm water hotline at (703) 821-:823.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Although the Senate approved legislation last year S. 455) that would have (1) funded research into the causes and cures of indoor
air pollution, (2) provided money for indoor air quality diagnosis, mitigation programs and educational activities, and (3) caused the
publication and distribution of educational materials on the causes. effects and solutions to indoor air pollution, the sponsors of a
similar bill in the House (HR. 1066) failed to complete work on their measure before Congress adjourned. Indoor air pollution is
considered by many to be the source of numerous environmental health problems and has served as the basis for an increasing number
of lawsuits against building owners. It is likely to receive careful attention by the next Congress.
MULTIFAMILY ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS
A subcommittee of the American Society of Testing and Materials(ASTM) has completed work on a national standard for conducting
environmental assessments of commercial real estate transactions. The procedures are intended to define what inquiries must be made
by teal estate purchasers, and those that make loans for such acquisitions, in order to avoid liability under CERCLA for cleaning up
environmental hazards left on properties by previous owners. The document contains two separate approaches to analyzing
environmental hazards on real property. The fist is a transaction screening document designed for use by those who do not have
environmental training but who, due to the size and nature of the transaction,desire to use the more cost-effective transaction screen
which permits an environmental investigation of the prospective property without the assistance of an environmental professional. The
second part of the standard establishes procedures for Phase I environmental site analyses to be carried out by an environmental expert.
The guidelines must now be voted on by ASTM as a whole. It is expected that the procedures will gain final approval early in 1993.

a result,all levels of government— federal, state, and Ioct — have been studying the issue and debating various proposed pieces of
legislation. Several industry and government studies have been conducted over the past 15 years. with many more currently being
carried out. NMHC has compiled a file of relevant materials on EMFs and dwse members who would like further information on
the subject can contact NMHC Vice President Ronald Nickson at(202) 659-3381.__
FIRE-RETARDANT PLYWOOD
A S50 million settlement was reached last week that will directly affect about 11,000 homeowners whose roofs are constructed with
fire-retardant treated (FRT) plywood. The settlement applies to owners of homes built by New Jersey homebuilder K. Hovnanian
Enterprises and is likely to serve as a model for settlement in cases involving approximately 24,000 other homeowners in that state.
Under the settlement, the cost to replace the roofs will be shared among Hovnanian, plywood treatment companies, chemical supply
companies, architects and lumber suppliers. The owners of the homes will also be required to pay between S200 and $400. New-
home-warranty companies refused to participate in the settlement. It is expected that they will be sued by the State of New Jersey
which will contribute that pardon of the settlement that was expected to have come from such warranty companies. Parties familiar
with the settlement believe it will be difficult to duplicate its success in other parts of the country because, unlike New Jersey, most
states do not have the authority to pursue claims against companies or groups that refuse to participate in such settlements.
FEDERAL PROPERTIES
On October 19,President Bush signed legislation (H.R. +t66�that will make it easier for the government to sell real property, such
as closed military bases,that it owns. The law modifies existing environmental rules that require clean-up of any environmental hazard
found on the entire property prior to sale of any portion that may otherwise be environmentally clean. It requires agencies terminating
operations on real property to identify those portions of real estate that do not contain hazardous substances(as defined by CERCLA),
^r petroleum products, and to encourage the sale of these parcels. The bill was intended to encourage the redevelopment of these
Is to soften the economic impact on local communities caused by the closing of federal facilities.
