PUBLIC INQUIRIES/INFORMATIONAL
This is an opportunity for citizens to bring to the Council ’s attention any items which
are relevant to the City. In addressing the Council, you must first state your name and
address for the record. To allow adequate time for each person wishing to address the
Council, speakers must limit their comments to three (3) minutes. To facilitate a timely
meeting, a speaker that is repeating, or agreeing with, a previous comment should
simply state such and forego a longer comment. If a large number of citizens wish to
speak, the Mayor may shorten the individual comment period. Written documents may
be distributed to the Council prior to the start of the meeting to allow a more timely
presentation. Speakers should not use obscene, profane, or threatening language, or
make personal attacks. Matters of litigation involving the City shall not be discussed
during Public Inquiry by citizens or Council. The Council may not respond to speaker
comments, engage in a debate, or take any action on the issues raised by citizens,
but may direct City staff to research or follow up on an issue, if desired by Council. If
Council directs further review by staff, the results of that review will be presented at a
following regular Council Meeting.

CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION
AUGUST 15, 2022
5:00 P.M. - ARDEN HILLS CITY HALL
CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor Grant called to order the City Council
Work Session at 5:00 p.m.
Present: Mayor David Grant, Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Fran Holmes, Steve
Scott and David Radziej
Absent: None
Also present: City Administrator Dave Perrault, Finance Director Gayle Bauman, Public
Works Director/City Engineer David Swearingen, Deputy City Clerk Jolene Trauba,
Communications Coordinator Grace Arel, HR Green Project Manager Bridget Osborn and HR
Green Project Engineer John Morast
1. AGENDA ITEMS
A. Water Quality BMP Analysis
HR Green Project Manager Bridget Osborn explained that and MS4 permit stands for
Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System permit. If you have lakes in your city there are certain
requirements that have to be met to clean them up, usually including phosphorus or sediment.
The MPCA normally does an assessment of the lakes, but in this case the Rice Creek Watershed
District sent the total maximum daily load recommendation (TMDL) to the MPCA. A plan needs
to be made to bring the lakes down to acceptable levels. They are proposing a scope of study for
two lakes, Little Lake Johanna and Pike Lake, which is in New Brighton. Watershed from Arden
Hills drains into both of these lakes.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen added that one of the first things to be done
would be to have a discussion with New Brighton to lay out the size of each city’s watershed.
Ms. Osborn explained they will determine best management practices to filter or capture the
sediment before it gets to the pond, or removing phosphorus before they get to the lakes. The plan
would also help with future grant opportunities.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – AUGUST 15, 2022 2
Public Works Director/City Engineer David Swearingen said there are four or five lakes that
are labeled as impaired and Arden Hills has watershed that drains toward them. These are the two
that need to be addressed. They need to show progress toward remediation with the MS4 permit.
Eventually they will also have to address the other impaired lakes.
Ms. Osborn said the scope of the work would be to collect data, do a desktop analysis, field
reconnaissance and analysis, and a technical memorandum explaining their findings and
recommendations. The permit doesn’t require clean up of the lake itself, just the water going into
the lake.
Discussion ensued regarding what part of the city the storm water was coming from.
Mayor Grant stated the work needed to be done and it will help apply for grants.
B. CDBG Arden Manor Park Improvements Update
HR Green Project Engineer John Morast said the city had applied for a CDBG grant for
underserved neighborhoods to replace the play structure, look at drainage and flooding issues, a
possible shelter and sport court in Arden Manor. A survey was done and a Rice Creek Watershed
District grant was applied for. The grant wasn’t awarded but they learned about things that need
to happen on the site for stormwater. They reached out to Ramsey County knowing that a lot of
the water is coming from the TCAAP site. The thought was to figure out where the groundwater
is, what type of contamination is there and what may need to be remediated. The more water that
can be held at TCAAP, the less will come to the site and the less they have to contain and/or pass
through.
Councilmember Holden thought they should talk to Alatus as they are the developer that would
do the grading.
Ms. Osborn explained the flooding that was currently happening in the park and what they looked
at to fix that problem. They felt there isn’t enough that can be done on site to mitigate the issue,
but Rice Creek Watershed District is willing to help.
Mr. Morast said they are waiting on Geotech results, he had received preliminary results of the
boring samples. There are no TCAAP contaminates in the groundwater that was sampled. Soils
can be re-sued on site. They can start working on the play structure, ball courts and shade structure
as long as they don’t increase the impervious surface.
Discussion continued regarding the flooding issues on the site.
Ms. Osborn said her hope is the Rice Creek Watershed District will fund the study, and explained
the analysis process.
Councilmember Holmes explained what had been done at Valentine Park to raise part of the
green space to prevent flooding.
City Administrator Perrault noted the grant money has to be spent by spring, 2023 so they
could replace the playground now rather than lose the money.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – AUGUST 15, 2022 3
Mayor Grant said they should work on the playground but also work with Rice Creek Watershed
District for other funding.
Mr. Morast thought they might be able to combine Rice Creek and CDBG grants for the water
issues.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they could wait and take care of
everything at once, or move forward with the improvements to the park equipment while knowing
they need to pursue surface water improvements.
Councilmember Holmes felt they should get started right away.
Councilmember Holden agreed and said it gave them an opportunity to work with TCAAP
grading.
Mayor Grant noted that the developer wants to raise the grade along Interstate 35, and that may
take over a year to move that much dirt. He confirmed they are asking staff to spend the $189,000
from the grant for park improvements project with the rest coming from potential future grants.
Mr. Morast said they would talk to CDBG again regarding another grant.
Mayor Grant asked staff to get back to them with park equipment costs.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he would also do public outreach to see
what the community would like at the park.
C. City-wide Speed Limit
Mr. Morast stated that speed limits have been discussed previously, there was most recently a
discussion about the MSA roads Lake Valentine Road and Old Snelling. He felt it was
appropriate to include them in the speed limit reductions.
Mayor Grant would like to see consistency for the driver, noting Lake Johanna Boulevard is 30
mph.
Councilmember Holden felt all city streets should be 25 mph.
Councilmember Radziej thought all city streets should be 30 mph and didn’t want to go down to
25 mph.
Councilmember Scott wanted 20 mph but was willing to go up to 25 mph.
Mayor Grant noted that the majority of the Council preferred 25 mph.
After discussion it was decided to make State Aid roads Old Snelling and Lake Valentine Road
also 25 mph.
Mr. Morast said they would work on messaging.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – AUGUST 15, 2022 4
Mayor Grant said they could put the information on the City website, in the newsletter, social
media and newsflashes.
Mr. Morast added they will also put flags on the new signs. He suggested putting information in
utility bills.
Mayor Grant asked what the implementation timeline would be.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they would have to work the sign
changes into the Public Works schedule as a winter project.
Mayor Grant directed staff to install no later than March 1st with a preference for earlier if
possible.
City Administrator Perrault asked if there were any more formal approvals the Council needed
to make.
Mr. Morast felt it would helpful to make a formal ordinance change.
Mayor Grant said once the work has been put on the schedule they can add it to the agenda for a
vote.
D. Water Efficiency Grant
City Administrator Perrault reported the Met Council Water Efficiency Grant was previously
discussed in 2019. The program is being renewed for 2023-2025 but it is unclear if the City can
be involved. The program is offered to residents to upgrade devices such as low flow toilets,
washing machines and irrigation system smart controllers. There is a match of 25% city and 75%
Met Council. Council would need to decide what devices to include and the dollar amount per
item. The minimum grant award is $5,000 but it’s not clear what happens if the city doesn’t meet
that amount.
Councilmember Holden thought it would be good to include businesses.
City Administrator Perrault explained that the resident would pay the entire amount for
whatever appliance they are purchasing, then apply for the grant to potentially receive whatever
amount the Council determines, much like a rebate.
Finance Director Bauman said the program is labor intensive on staff time. She stated when she
worked with the program previously, they got interest initially but not as time went on. If we give
a rebate, we’ll get reimbursed but if we don’t give out at least $5,000 she doesn’t know if they
will reimburse the city.
City Administrator Perrault suggested they pick an amount that they can use to go forward with
the application, assuming they City is able to get into the upcoming cycle. He felt $10,000 would
be a good amount with the City contribution being $2,500.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – AUGUST 15, 2022 5
Mayor Grant directed staff see if Arden Hills can get into the program and bring it forward to a
Council meeting if they are able.
E. State of the City Update
Communications Coordinator Arel passed out the draft slides for the State of the City.
Communications Coordinator Arel stated that Boston Scientific will host the event Thursday,
September 15. Refreshments will be catered by Boston Scientific’s catering company with
options for a continental breakfast. NineNorth will record the event, edit and post a recording of
the event online. After the slides are finalized staff and Council will work on the script for each
presenter. The total cost of the event is higher than the estimated amount but there is sufficient
balance in the EDA fund to cover the overage. There will be no charge for the room rental even if
the City doesn’t use the onsite caterer.
Council reviewed the draft slides, made changes and additions, and decided to use onsite catering.
Communications Coordinator Arel said the Council had discussed moving the event to earlier
in the year and wondered if they would like to have next years State of the City in March or April.
Councilmember Holden liked the idea of having it in April.
Councilmember Holmes suggested skipping 2023 and having the next event in spring of 2024.
City Administrator Perrault said staff would have the slides updated within two weeks and the
script to Council in three weeks.
F. Lake Johanna Trail Study
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said the Lake Johanna Boulevard Trail
Study open house held at City Hall was well attended. He invited Ramsey County to the
September 19 work session to discuss.
City Administrator Perrault asked if the Council wanted to send a letter to the County prior to
that meeting or just discuss face to face.
Councilmember Holden thought they could tar the curb as a short-term solution but if they’re
coming there’s no need for a letter.
Councilmember Holmes didn’t understand why it had to be so elaborate and thought they could
do a trail like the one on Old Snelling.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they are planning for TIF and
construction in 2028. They are asking for $6 million from Met Council, which would be a $4.8
million grant, equating to $600,000 each for the City and County.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – AUGUST 15, 2022 6
G. 2023 Preliminary General Fund Budget
Finance Director Bauman explained the City was required to adopt a maximum tax levy by the
end of September. A 5% increase is shown, which leaves the General Fund underfunded by
$161,330, as compared to 2022 with a budget shortfall of $140,000.
Finance Director Bauman reviewed the General Fund revenues, expenditures, personnel
services and FTE’s, supplies and materials, and other services and charges. The proposed tax levy
was also discussed, along with other funds relying on tax levy dollars.
Finance Director Bauman noted the current wage and benefit assumptions include a 3% COLA,
6.5% health insurance and 3% dental insurance increase. She asked if any of those assumptions
should be changed.
After discussion it was decided to continue those assumptions for now.
Finance Director Bauman asked if Council would like a significant building project added to the
2023 budget.
It was determined to not add any building project fees to the budget.
Discussion ensued regarding where to put the proceeds from the sale of the Ridgewood property,
it was decided to put the money in the PIR budget.
Finance Director Bauman stated that Lake Johanna Fire Department models project 2023 tax
levy increase of either $75,000 or $125,000 depending on if the SAFER Grant is received. She
asked if Council would like to set the preliminary max levy to included additional funds for the
fire department if needed.
Mayor Grant noted the SAFER Grant should be awarded before the Council has to approve the
levy increase.
Finance Director Bauman said she usually brings the levy adoption to the first meeting in
September but could bring it the second meeting on September 26. She felt a revised preliminary
levy could be emailed to Council prior to the meeting.
After further discussion staff was directed to send Council a budget with the levy increase listed in
increments between 4% and 7%.
H. Council Tracker
Not reviewed.
2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES
Councilmember Holden asked what was happening with Cummings Lane and if it was too late
to put curbs in because of the steep grade.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – AUGUST 15, 2022 7
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said it was his understanding the drainage
issues were at the catch basin, not along the street. The pavement is complete but seeding hasn’t
taken place. Staff could look into a cost-effective alternative for curb in that area.
Councilmember Radziej suggested using the type of curbing that is sometimes used in
landscaping.
Councilmember Holden asked if the old Smith Medical Building was full, and thought the
information could be given at the State of the City.
Councilmember Radziej said he had been seeing semitrucks with trailers on the north side of the
road at International Paper.
Councilmember Scott said he would forward an email he received regarding a rental property on
Grant Avenue. He also asked about the drainage pond on Indian Oaks trail.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said the pond was lowered 2.5 feet, and it
now sits at the outlet elevation.
Mayor Grant reported that he has been using his laptop instead of a paper copy of the agenda for
the last eight months and felt it was working. He invited other Councilmembers to try going
paperless.
Councilmember Holmes said she would try going paperless.
City Administrator Perrault asked if Council would like to schedule a Special Work Session
with Ramsey County to discuss the staging of the roundabout on County Road E, on either
September 12 or 26, and before or after the Council meeting.
It was determined to schedule the special meeting on September 12.
City Administrator Perrault stated the cost to stripe pickleball courts was $275.
After discussion it was decided to have the contractor stripe a court at Freeway Park, and two
courts at Hazelnut Park.

2.PUBLIC INQUIRIES/INFORMATIONAL
Kathryn Nelson, 3475 Siems Court, stated she has lived in her home for the past 37 years. She
reported on July 14 she met with Ramsey County concerning the roundabout proposed at County
Road E and Snelling Avenue. She encouraged the Council to further consider this roundabout.
She believed the roundabout was a waste of taxpayer dollars and would create pedestrian safety
concerns. She reported the safety intersection for pedestrians was a four-way stop and not a
roundabout. She requested the City not push more traffic into her neighborhood. She suggested
the City find another location for this roundabout.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – AUGUST 22, 2022 2
Gregg Larson, 3377 North Snelling Avenue, reported recent Council comments regarding
TCAAP spending reminded him of Jimmy Breslin’s novel The Gang that Couldn’t Shoot Straight.
He stated in order to set the record straight this situation boils down to two fundamental questions.
He asked how much the City has spent on TCAAP planning and development and second, how
much of this spending has been recovered by the City. He reported the City Administrator
responded to questions from Arden Hills resident Mary Henry regarding TCAAP spending and he
learned that from 1995 to 2012 TCAAP spending totaled $2.3 million dollars and from 2013 and
2021 TCAAP spending totaled $1.7 million dollars. He indicated these were City figures and not
resident figures. He reported Ms. Henry then asked the City Administrator how much of this has
been recovered and was told the expenditures from 2013 to 2021 can’t occur until the project
begins. He believed the Council’s failure to reach a compromise hurts the Arden Hills taxpayers.
He explained the City Administrator stated a substantial portion of expenses from 1995 to 2012
had been reimbursed, but no specifics were provided. Instead, Ms. Henry was encouraged to
search a website or pay City staff to provide the information. He explained it was his
understanding that a single agreement with Ryan Companies that covered seven of the 17 years
provided for some reimbursement. He believed it should be relatively simple to access any City
invoices and Ryan payments without having to ask residents to pay for public information. He
reported until the City provides this information, residents have no documentation regarding
offsets to the $4 million that has already been spent. He ended his comments by stating residents
have always wanted to accurately reflect accounting for City funds spent on TCAAP, which was
the reason Ms. Henry asked for this information. However, the City has not made this information
readily available. He indicated he was thrilled to learn of the Council’s enthusiasm for an accurate
accounting of taxes spent on TCAAP. He requested the Council provide a full disclosure of the
funds spent and recovered.
3. RESPONSE TO PUBLIC INQUIRIES

7. PULLED CONSENT ITEMS
A. Motion to Authorize Awarding Contract to Margolis Company for 2022 Tree
Plan
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated at the July 18, 2022 Council work
session, City Council discussed the vision of the 2022 Tree Plan and directed staff to create and
request bids for the plan. The bid items included are all necessary for the highest success rate of
survival for the trees and all trees are under a 2-year warranty. The initial watering process will be
handled by the Contractor for warranty reasons and the Contractor has agreed to work with Arden
Hills Public Works staff to perform the routine watering to help keep the overall quantity down
for that bid item. All water used by the contractor will be metered. Staff has reviewed the bid tab
and recommends that the City proceed with the work if desired. Staff recommends Council
approve the contract with Margolis Company.
Mayor Grant questioned how many trees were being removed and replaced.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reviewed the number of trees that would be
removed and replaced.
Councilmember Holden stated she supported the proposed plan.
MOTION: Councilmember Radziej moved and Councilmember Scott seconded a motion
to Authorize Awarding Contract to Margolis Company for 2022 Tree Plan.
The motion carried (5-0).
B. Motion to Approve Ordinance 2022-005 Amending Chapter 9, Subsection
910.11 Regarding Swimming Pools; Construction Standards
Community Development Director Jagoe stated at the July 11, 2022 regular City Council
meeting, Katy Muckala at 1147 Karth Lake Drive addressed the Council during public inquiry
requesting Council consideration to amend the ordinance on the minimum height requirements for
safety fencing around swimming pools. Ms. Muckala proposed the City Council amend the
current ordinance language in City Code Chapter 9, Building Regulations under Section 910,
Swimming Pools to reduce the safety fencing requirement from a minimum of five feet tall to four
feet tall. Staff reviewed the current language in detail with the Council noting staff was directed to
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – AUGUST 22, 2022 5
bring this item back to City Council for further discussion. At the July 18, 2022 City Council
work session, staff presented survey results of minimum pool safety fencing requirements of
several adjacent communities. City Council feedback was generally supportive for the reduction
of the minimum pool safety fencing height from five feet to four feet. Based on the work session
discussion, City staff has prepared the proposed ordinance amendment for adoption.
Councilmember Holden stated she believed this was a great change and appreciated that Ms.
Muckala brought this forward during public inquiries and for bringing this to the Council’s
attention. She thanked staff for their efforts on this Ordinance amendment.
MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Radziej seconded a
motion to Approve Ordinance 2022-005 Amending Chapter 9, Subsection
910.11 Regarding Swimming Pools; Construction Standards. The motion
carried (5-0).
C. Motion to Approve Ordinance 2022-006 an Interim Ordinance Prohibiting the
Sale, Testing, Manufacturing and Distribution of Products Containing THC
and Authorization to Publish a Summary Ordinance
City Clerk Hanson stated on July 1, 2022, the Minnesota Legislature adopted an amendment that
permits the sale of edible cannabinoid products that contain no more than 0.3% of THC (a
derivative of hemp). The amendment was enacted with very few regulations in place, leaving the
responsibility on the individual cities to determine what, if any, additional regulations to put in
place. She noted the City Council discussed this topic at a special work session on August 8 and
directed staff to prepare a draft ordinance for consideration of a one year moratorium which would
allow staff and Council more time to further study the matter.
Councilmember Holden stated the item came to the City quite fast. She noted the League of
Minnesota Cities was reviewing this matter and would be making recommendations to cities. She
explained she supported the City having a moratorium in place to allow the City more time to
investigate how to regulate the sales of products containing THC.
Councilmember Scott referenced that this item requires the City to publish a summary
Ordinance.
MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a
motion to Approve Ordinance 2022-006 an Interim Ordinance Prohibiting the
Sale, Testing, Manufacturing and Distribution of Products Containing THC,
with the Motion including Authorization to Publish a Summary Ordinance.
The motion carried (5-0).
8. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Planned Unit Development Amendment (Signage Flexibility) – 4200 Round
Lake Road – Delkor Systems and Colder Products Company – Planning Case
22-014
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – AUGUST 22, 2022 6
Community Development Director Jagoe stated Delkor Systems, Inc. (“Applicant”), on behalf
of Scannell Properties, LLC has submitted a land use application for a Planned Unit Development
Amendment, proposing additional wall signage on the southwest elevation of the Gateway
Interstate building. The original Preliminary/Final Plat, Planned Unit Development, Conditional
Use Permit, and Site Plan Review approvals from October 12, 2020, for the Subject Property did
not include flexibility on signage. It was stated in the approvals that a separate sign permit would
be required for all proposed signage and that all proposed signage shall meet the requirements of
Sign District 6. In July of 2021, it was determined that Sign District 6 would allow for a single
wall sign for each tenant under 60 square feet on each of the corresponding tenant building
elevations. The applicant is proposing additional signage on the southwest elevation.
Community Development Director Jagoe reviewed the site data and plan evaluation in detail
and recommended the Council hold a public hearing.
Mayor Grant opened the public hearing at 7:36 p.m.
Kevin Weiss, 4200 Round Lake Road and 4300 Round Lake Road, thanked the Council for
considering his request.
With no one coming forward to speak, Mayor Grant closed the public hearing at 7:37 p.m.
9. NEW BUSINESS
A. Planning Case 22-014 – Planned Unit Development (PUD) 4200 Round Lake
Road – Delkor Systems and Colder Products Company
Community Development Director Jagoe stated the applicant has submitted a land use
application for a Planned Unit Development Amendment, proposing additional wall signage on
the southwest elevation of the Gateway Interstate building. The original Preliminary/Final Plat,
Planned Unit Development, Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review approvals from
October 12, 2020, for the Subject Property did not include flexibility on signage. It was stated in
the approvals that a separate sign permit would be required for all proposed signage and that all
proposed signage shall meet the requirements of Sign District 6. In July of 2021, it was
determined that Sign District 6 would allow for a single wall sign for each tenant under 60 square
feet on each of the corresponding tenant building elevations. The proposal is for flexibility from
the City Code on a proposed signage plan for the Gateway Interstate building. Tenants, Delkor
Systems, Inc. and Colder Products Company (CPC), are seeking additional wall signage on the
southwest elevation of the building.
Community Development Director Jagoe commented further on the proposed request and
offered the following Findings of Fact:
1. The Applicant submitted an application for a Planned Unit Development Amendment.
2. The Subject Property is located within the GB Gateway Business District and is guided as
Light Industrial and Office Use on the Land Use Plan.
3. The Subject Property is approximately 26 acres and is owned by Scannell Properties.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – AUGUST 22, 2022 7
4. Adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, area,
and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site
Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process as described for in Section 1320 and
1355 of the Zoning Code.
5. Flexibility through the PUD process has been requested for the location of the proposed
wall signs.
6. The proposed signage plan will not result in a sign that is inconsistent with the purpose of
the zoning district in which the property is located or the current land use.
7. A public hearing for a Planned Unit Development Amendment is required before the
request can be brought before the City Council.
8. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on August 3, 2022.
Community Development Director Jagoe reported the Planning Commission reviewed this
application at their August 3, 2022 meeting. At that time, they recommended approval with
conditions of the Delkor Systems, Inc. application for a Planned Unit Development Amendment
by a 6-0 vote. Staff recommended approval of Planning Case 22-014 for a Planned Unit
Development Amendment at 4200 Round Lake Road, based on the findings of fact and the
submitted plans, as amended by the conditions in the August 22, 2022 Report to the City Council:
1. All conditions of the original Preliminary/Final Plat, Planned Unit Development,
Conditional Use Permit, and Site Plan Review shall remain in full force and effect.
2. A separate sign permit shall be required for all proposed signage.
3. All signage shall meet all other requirements of Sign District 6.
4. The Subject Property is allowed flexibility for wall sign location in accordance with the
Master Sign Plan as submitted. Any changes to wall signage in the Master Sign Plan shall
require review and approval of the Planning Commission and City Council.
Councilmember Scott asked if the site would have a small monument sign along Gateway
Boulevard.
Community Development Director Jagoe stated this was the case.
Mayor Grant indicated he supported the request noting this was a very large building that faced
I-694. He believed that the proposed signs were balanced and appropriately sized.
Councilmember Holmes commented on Condition 4 that was proposed by the Planning
Commission.
MOTION: Councilmember Radziej moved and Councilmember Holden seconded a
motion to approve Planning Case 22-014 for a Planned Unit Development
(PUD) Amendment for flexibility for the location of the wall signage at 4200
Round Lake Road, based on the findings of fact and submitted plans, and the
four conditions in the August 22, 2022, Report to the City Council. The
motion carried (5-0).

Stormwater BMP Retrofit Analysis in the amount not to exceed $16,600
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Background/Discussion
At the August 15, 2022 Council Work Session, HR Green presented the Little Johanna Lake and
Pike Lake Stormwater BMP Retrofit Analysis.
The proposed stormwater study is to analyze the subwatersheds of Little Johanna Lake and Pike
Lake for potential targeted locations of specific water quality best management practices (BMP).
The analysis will serve to assist the City of Arden Hills in implementing targeted and prioritized
practices to help meet waste load allocations (WLA) for these lakes, which is a required by the
MS4 Permit.
The proposed scope of work will develop guidance to watershed management staff in
Page 2 of 2
implementing targeted, measurable and prioritized water quality BMPs within the watershed’s
developed areas in order to meet MS4 requirements. This study will also serve as the planning
tool needed to apply for future grant funding.
Budget Impact
The fee for services will be based on a time and material basis (Not to exceed $16,600) and
include the following tasks:
1. Data Gathering
2. Desktop Analysis
3. Field Reconnaissance
4. Analysis
5. Technical Memorandum
Deliverables will include a final Memorandum with retrofit recommendations and preliminary
costs.
This study will be used to support grant opportunities through the Minnesota Board of Water and
Soil Resources, Clean Water Fund Program.
Previously, the City of New Brighton had expressed an interest in partnering on this project.
After further discussion, they opted to not share costs at this time but would be willing to fund
construction of BMP projects that come from this study in the future. Our Surface Water
Management Fund will need to cover the full cost of the analysis.

THIS AGREEMENT is between the City of Arden Hills (hereafter “CLIENT”) and HR GREEN,
INC. (hereafter "COMPANY").
1.0 Project Understanding
1.1 General Understanding
CLIENT requires the consulting services of COMPANY to analyze the subwatersheds of Little
Lake Johanna and Pike Lake within the City for potential targeted locations of specific water
quality best management practices (BMP). This Stormwater Retrofit Analysis will serve to assist
CLIENT in implementing targeted and prioritized practices to help meet waste load allocations for
these lakes per their MS4 goals. The proposed scope of work will develop guidance to watershed
management staff in implementing targeted, measurable, and prioritized water quality BMPs in
the City within the watershed areas. This study will not include portions of the watersheds within
the cities of New Brighton or Roseville. As identified projects come out of this study, conversations
will take place with the neighboring cities on cost share opportunities to count toward multiple
MS4 permits.
1.2 Design Criteria/Assumptions
• Stormwater infrastructure data will be provided to the COMPANY by the CLIENT, as either
a GIS shapefile or CAD File. This information will include all catch basins, culverts, pipes,
pipe sizes, outfalls, ponds and ditches within the study area.
• As-built surveys or construction plans of existing stormwater ponds and other best
management practices will provide sufficient detail for modeling purposes. If data gaps or
quality prove insufficient, assumed dimensions and hydraulic controls will be adopted, or
the CLIENT will investigate the data gaps during the field reconnaissance.
• City land use data will be provided to the COMPANY by the CLIENT.
• The P8 Urban Catchment Model will be used for existing- and post-yield of Total Sediment
and Total Phosphorus using a representative average year based on the most current 30-
years of precipitation.
• New proposed end-of-pipe BMPs (e.g., extended detention ponds) will be modeled to treat
the drainage area leading to them but not include any newly proposed distributed BMPs
upstream of it.
• New proposed distributed BMPs (e.g., curb-cut raingardens) will be modeled collectively
for the drainage area they serve. No feasibility study will be performed for these locations.
• Conceptual, estimated construction costs for end-of-pipe BMPs will be derived at a
planning-level scale with a 30% contingency.
• Present Day Value costs will use spreadsheet calculators from the Water Environment
Research Foundation for a 30-year period of operation. Maintenance labor, materials and
frequency will be agreed upon by the COMPANY and CLIENT but may include obtaining
staff rates from CLIENT.
• A Technical Memorandum will be developed containing the methods and results of the
study and delivered electronically.
• All data used or produced in the analysis will be available to CLIENT upon request.

subcontractors, sub-consultants, vendors and other entities involved in this project to carry out the intent of this
provision.
8.12 Governing Law and Jurisdiction
The CLIENT and the COMPANY agree that this AGREEMENT and any legal actions concerning its validity,
interpretation and performance shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota without regard to any
conflict of law provisions, which may apply the laws of other jurisdictions.
It is further agreed that any legal action between the CLIENT and the COMPA NY arising out of this
AGREEMENT or the performance of the services shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the
State of Minnesota.
8.13 Dispute Resolution
Mediation. In an effort to resolve any conflicts that arise during the design or construction of the project or
following the completion of the project, the CLIENT and COMPANY agree that all disputes between them arising
out of or relating to this AGREEMENT shall be submitted to non-binding mediation unless the parties mutually
agree otherwise. The CLIENT and COMPANY further agree to include a similar mediation provision in all
agreements with independent contractors and consultants retained for the project and to require all independent
contractors and consultants also to include a similar mediation provision in all agreements with subcontractors,
sub-consultants, suppliers or fabricators so retained, thereby providing for mediation as the primary method for
dispute resolution between the parties to those agreements.
8.14 Attorney’s Fees
If litigation arises for purposes of collecting fees or expenses due under this A GREEMENT, the Court in such
litigation shall award reasonable costs and expenses, including attorney fees, to the party justly entitled thereto.

Version2.3 02052021
8.16 Reuse of Documents
All project documents including, but not limited to, plans and specifications furnished by COMPANY under this
project are intended for use on this project only. Any reuse, without specific written verification or adoption by
COMPANY, shall be at the CLIENT's sole risk, and CLIENT shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
COMPANY from all claims, damages and expenses including attorneys’ fees arising out of or resulting
therefrom.
Under no circumstances shall delivery of electronic files for use by the CLIENT be deemed a sale by the
COMPANY, and the COMPANY makes no warranties, either express or implied, of merchantability and fitness
for any particular purpose. In no event shall the COMPANY be liable for indirect or consequential damages as
a result of the CLIENT’s use or reuse of the electronic files.
8.17 Failure to Abide by Design Documents or To Obtain Guidance
The CLIENT agrees that it would be unfair to hold COMPANY liable for problems that might occur should
COMPANY’S plans, specifications or design intents not be followed, or for problems resulting from others' failure
to obtain and/or follow COMPANY’S guidance with respect to any errors, omissions, inconsistencies,
ambiguities or conflicts which are detected or alleged to exist in or as a consequence of implementing
COMPANY’S plans, specifications or other instruments of service. Accordingly, the CLIENT waives any claim
against COMPANY, and agrees to defend, indemnify and hold COMPANY harmless from any claim for injury
or losses that results from failure to follow COMPANY’S plans, specifications or design intent, or for failure to
obtain and/or follow COMPANY’S guidance with respect to any alleged errors, omissions, inconsistencies,
ambiguities or conflicts contained within or arising as a result of implementing COMPANY’S plans, specifications
or other instruments of service. The CLIENT also agrees to compensate COMPANY for any time spent and
expenses incurred remedying CLIENT’s failures according to COMPANY’S prevailing fee schedule and
expense reimbursement policy.
8.18 Opinion of Probable Construction Cost
As part of the Deliverables, COMPANY may submit to the CLIENT an opinion of probable cost required to
construct work recommended, designed, or specified by COMPANY, if required by CLIENT. COMPANY is not
a construction cost estimator or construction contractor, nor should COMPANY’S rendering an opinion of
probable construction costs be considered equivalent to the nature and extent of service a construction cost
estimator or construction contractor would provide. This requires COMPANY to make a number of assumptions
as to actual conditions that will be encountered on site; the specific decisions of other design professionals
engaged; the means and methods of construction the contractor will employ; the cost and extent of labor,
equipment and materials the contractor will employ; contractor's techniques in determining prices and market
conditions at the time, and other factors over which COMPANY has no control. Given the assumptions which
must be made, COMPANY cannot guarantee the accuracy of its opinions of cost, and in recognition of that fact,
the CLIENT waives any claim against COMPANY relative to the accuracy of COMPANY’S opinion of probable
construction cost.
8.19 Design Information in Electronic Form
Because electronic file information can be easily altered, corrupted, or modified by oth er parties, either
intentionally or inadvertently, without notice or indication, COMPANY reserves the right to remove itself from its
ownership and/or involvement in the material from each electronic medium not held in its possession. CLIENT
shall retain copies of the work performed by COMPANY in electronic form only for information and use by
CLIENT for the specific purpose for which COMPANY was engaged. Said material shall not be used by CLIENT
or transferred to any other party, for use in other projects, additions to this project, or any other purpose for
which the material was not strictly intended by COMPANY without COMPANY’s express written permission.
Any unauthorized use or reuse or modifications of this material shall be at CLIENT’S sole risk. Furt hermore,
the CLIENT agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold COMPANY harmless from all claims, injuries, damages,
losses, expenses, and attorneys’ fees arising out of the modification or reuse of these materials.
The CLIENT recognizes that designs, plans, and data stored on electronic media including, but not limited to
computer disk, magnetic tape, or files transferred via email, may be subject to undetectable alteration and/or
uncontrollable deterioration. The CLIENT, therefore, agrees that COMPANY shall not be liable for the
completeness or accuracy of any materials provided on electronic media after a 30-day inspection period, during
which time COMPANY shall correct any errors detected by the CLIENT to complete the design in accordance
with the intent of the contract and specifications. After 40 days, at the request of the CLIENT, COMPANY shall
submit a final set of sealed drawings, and any additional services to be performed by COMPANY relative to the
Professional Services Agreement
Little Lake Johanna and Pike Lake Stormwater Retrofit Analysis
220191
09/21/2022
Page 8 of 11
Version2.3 02052021
submitted electronic materials shall be subject to separate agreement. The CLIENT is aware that differences
may exist between the electronic files delivered and the printed hard-copy construction documents. In the event
of a conflict between the signed construction documents prepared by the COMPANY and electronic files, the
signed or sealed hard-copy construction documents shall govern.
8.20 Information Provided by Others
The CLIENT shall furnish, at the CLIENT’s expense, all information, requirements, reports, data, surveys and
instructions required by this AGREEMENT. The COMPANY may use such information, requirements, reports,
data, surveys and instructions in performing its services and i s entitled to rely upon the accuracy and
completeness thereof. The COMPANY shall not be held responsible for any errors or omissions that may arise
as a result of erroneous or incomplete information provided by the CLIENT and/or the CLIENT’s consultants
and contractors.
COMPANY is not responsible for accuracy of any plans, surveys or information of any type including electronic
media prepared by any other consultants, etc. provided to COMPANY for use in preparation of plans. The
CLIENT agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify and hold harmless the COMPANY from any
damages, liabilities, or costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs, arising out of or connected
in any way with the services performed by other consultants engaged by the CLIENT.
COMPANY is not responsible for accuracy of topographic surveys provided by others. A field check of a
topographic survey provided by others will not be done under this AGREEMENT unless indicated in the Scope
of Services.
8.21 Force Majeure
The CLIENT agrees that the COMPANY is not responsible for damages arising directly or indirectly from any
delays for causes beyond the COMPANY's control. CLIENT agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold COMPANY,
its consultants, agents, and employees harmless from any and all liability, other than that caused by the
negligent acts, errors, or omissions of COMPANY, arising out of or resulting from the same. For purposes of
this AGREEMENT, such causes include, but are not limited to, strikes or other labor disputes; severe weather
disruptions or other natural disasters or acts of God; fires, riots, war or other emergencies; disease epidemic or
pandemic; failure of any government agency to act in a timely manner; failure of performance by the CLIENT or
the CLIENT’S contractors or consultants; or discovery of any hazardous substances or differing site conditions.
Severe weather disruptions include but are not limited to extensive rain, high winds, snow greater than two (2)
inches and ice. In addition, if the delays resulting from any such causes increase the cost or time required by
the COMPANY to perform its services in an orderly and efficient manner, the COMPANY shall be entitled to a
reasonable adjustment in schedule and compensation.
8.22 Job Site Visits and Safety
Neither the professional activities of COMPANY, nor the presence of COMPANY’S employees and sub -
consultants at a construction site, shall relieve the general contractor and any other entity of their obligations,
duties and responsibilities including, but not limited to, construction means, methods, sequence, techniques or
procedures necessary for performing, superintending or coordinating all portions of the work of construction in
accordance with the contract documents and any health or safety precautions required by any regulatory
agencies. COMPANY and its personnel have no authority to exercise any control over any construction
contractor or other entity or their employees in connection with their work or any health or safety precautions.
The CLIENT agrees that the general contractor is solely responsible for job site safety, and warrants that this
intent shall be made evident in the CLIENT's AGREEMENT with the general contractor. The CLIENT also
agrees that the CLIENT, COMPANY and COMPANY’S consultants shall be indemnified and shall be made
additional insureds on the general contractor’s and all subcontractor’s general liability policies on a primary and
non-contributory basis.
8.23 Hazardous Materials
CLIENT hereby understands and agrees that COMPANY has not created nor contributed to the creation or
existence of any or all types of hazardous or toxic wastes, materials, chemical compounds, or substances, or
any other type of environmental hazard or pollution, whether latent or patent, at CLIENT's premis es, or in
connection with or related to this project with respect to which COMPANY has been retained to provide
professional services. The compensation to be paid COMPANY for said professional services is in no way
commensurate with, and has not been calculated with reference to, the potential risk of injury or loss which may
be caused by the exposure of persons or property to such substances or conditions. Therefore, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, CLIENT agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold COM PANY, its officers, directors,
Professional Services Agreement
Little Lake Johanna and Pike Lake Stormwater Retrofit Analysis
220191
09/21/2022
Page 9 of 11
Version2.3 02052021
employees, and consultants, harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, and expenses, whether
direct, indirect, or consequential, including, but not limited to, attorney fees and Court costs, arising out of, or
resulting from the discharge, escape, release, or saturation of smoke, vapors, soot, fumes, acid, alkalis, toxic
chemicals, liquids gases, or any other materials, irritants, contaminants, or pollutants in or into the atmosphere,
or on, onto, upon, in, or into the surface or subsurface of soil, water, or watercourses, objects, or any tangible
or intangible matter, whether sudden or not.
It is acknowledged by both parties that COMPANY’S Scope of Services does not include any services related
to asbestos or hazardous or toxic materials. In the event COMPANY or any other party encounters asbestos
or hazardous or toxic materials at the job site, or should it become known in any way that such materials may
be present at the job site or any adjacent areas that may affect the performance of COMPANY’S services,
COMPANY may, at its option and without liability for consequential or any other damages, suspend performance
of services on the project until the CLIENT retains appropriate specialist consultant(s) or contractor(s) to identify,
abate and/or remove the asbestos or hazardous or toxic materials, and warrants that the job site is in full
compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Nothing contained within this AGREEMENT shall be construed or interpreted as requiring COMPANY to assume
the status of a generator, storer, transporter, treater, or disposal facility as those terms appear within the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, 42 U.S.C.A., §6901 et seq., as amended, or within any State statute
governing the generation, treatment, storage, and disposal of waste.
8.24 Certificate of Merit
The CLIENT shall make no claim for professional negligence, either directly or in a third party claim, against
COMPANY unless the CLIENT has first provided COMPANY with a written certification executed by an
independent design professional currently practicing in the same discipline as COMPANY and licensed in the
State in which the claim arises. This certification shall: a) contain the name and license number of the certifier;
b) specify each and every act or omission that the certifier contends is a violation of the standard of care
expected of a design professional performing professional services under similar circumstances; and c) state in
complete detail the basis for the certifier's opinion that each such act or omission constitutes such a violation.
This certificate shall be provided to COMPANY not less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the presentation
of any claim or the institution of any judicial proceeding.
8.25 Limitation of Liability
In recognition of the relative risks and benefits of the Project to both the CLIENT and the COMPANY, the risks
have been allocated such that the CLIENT agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to limit the liability of
the COMPANY and COMPANY’S officers, directors, partners, employees, shareholders, owners and sub -
consultants for any and all claims, losses, costs, damages of any nature whatsoever or claims expenses from
any cause or causes, including attorneys’ fees and costs and expert witness fees and costs, so that the total
aggregate liability of the COMPANY and COMPANY’S officers, directors, partners, employees, shareholders,
owners and sub-consultants shall not exceed $50,000.00, or the COMPANY’S total fee for services rendered
on this Project, whichever is greater. It is intended that this limitation apply to any and all liability or cause of
action however alleged or arising, unless otherwise prohibited by law.
8.26 Drywells, Underdrains and Other Infiltration Devices
Services provided by COMPANY under this AGREEMENT do NOT include the geotechnical design of drywells,
underdrains, injection wells or any other item that may be devised for the purpose of removing water from the
CLIENT’S property by infiltration into the ground. Due to the high variability of soil types and conditions such
devices will not be reliable in all cases. While for this reason COMPANY does not recommend the use of these
devices, in some cases their use may be necessary to obtain an adequate amount of are a for development on
the CLIENT’S property. Since the use of these devices is intended to enhance the value of the CLIENT’S
property and, in some cases, allow development that would otherwise not be possible, the CLIENT will assume
all risks inherent in the design and construction of these devices, unless the contractor or a Geotechnical
Engineer assumes these risks. Typical risks include but are not limited to:
• Failure to obtain the required release rate;
• Variability of the soils encountered during construction from those encountered in soil borings. (Soils
can vary widely over a small change in location, horizontal or vertical, particularly with regards to
permeability);
• Failure of the device due to siltation, poor construction or changes in the water table;

• Need to obtain additional soils information (i.e. borings etc.) to evaluate the function of installed
devices;
• Reconstruction of failed or inadequate devices;
• Enlargement of detention/ retention facilities to make up for release rates that are lower than those
used in the stormwater design, including engineering design and additional land required for such
enlargement; and
• Regular maintenance to remove accumulated silt over the device’s life span.
If the use of these devices is required COMPANY will advise the CLIENT that a Geotechnical Engineer must be
retained to consult on the project. The CLIENT must enter into a separate agreement directly with this
consultant. They will not be sub-contracted through COMPANY nor are their fees included as part of this
AGREEMENT. COMPANY will work together with this consultant to obtain a final design. Our collaboration
may include the use of a common standard detail or the creation of a new standard detail. COMPANY may
make suggestions to the Geotechnical Engineer on ways to tailor these devices to meet the needs of the overall
site design. The Geotechnical Engineer will evaluate these suggested details and modifications based on his
experience and measured soils information to estimate the release rate for each detail conside red. COMPANY
may use a release rate of these devices as provided by the Geotechnical Engineer for the design of the
stormwater system. This rate may be faxed to us, as a draft copy of the Geotechnical Engineers report or as a
final copy of that report. In no case will COMPANY accept responsibility for the determination of the expected
release rate of these devices.
If certification of the contractor’s construction of these devices is required by the municipality or desired by the
CLIENT a Geotechnical Engineer must also be obtained for these services. This is highly recommended in
order to observe the actual soils where the devices are being constructed and to verify that the construction
methods used do not violate any assumptions made by the Geotechni cal Engineer during the design and
evaluation of the standard detail. If a Geotechnical Engineer is not retained by the CLIENT to provide
construction review, the CLIENT shall assume all risks that the devices may fail requiring additional geotechnical
investigation or reconstruction and shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless COMPANY from all claims,
damages and expenses including attorneys’ fees arising out of or resulting therefrom. Any construction
observation services provided by COMPANY shall not include these devices.
8.27 Environmental Audits/Site Assessments
Environmental Audit/Site Assessment report(s) are prepared for CLIENT's sole use. CLIENT agrees to defend,
indemnify, and hold COMPANY, its consultants, agents, and employees harmless against al l damages, claims,
expenses, and losses arising out of or resulting from any reuse of the Environmental Audit/Site Assessment
report(s) without the written authorization of COMPANY.
8.28
8.31 Soliciting Employment
Neither party to this AGREEMENT will solicit an employee of the other nor hire or make an offer of employment
to an employee of the other that is working on this PROJECT, without prior written consent of the other party,
during the time this AGREEMENT is in effect.
8.32 DGPS Signal Accuracy
Regional RTN, local RTK, or Omnistar Data Service may be interrupted, or the validity of the data changed, by
local conditions such as blockage by trees and buildings or radio interference. Published system accuracies
are dependent on the CLIENT’S GPS receiver and CLIENT’S location. The Regional RTN, local RTK, or
Omnistar Data Services coverage is approximate and when CLIENT intends to operate on the extremes of the
published coverage area, CLIENT is advised to verify the anticipated Data Services performance with vendor
prior to use.
8.33 Intellectual Property Ownership of Tendered Materials
COMPANY retains title and full intellectual property ownership of all tendered documents and materials,
including without limitation, analysis methods and equations, calculations, print layouts, layer operational
definitions, drawings, models, plans, set of tools, etc. All such documents and materials are considered
confidential and CLIENT shall not copy such documentation or materials or disclose them to third parties without
COMPANY’S prior written consent. CLIENT shall sign COMPANY’S GEOSPATIAL NONDISCLOSURE
AGREEMENT and take reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized access and use of the software and

This AGREEMENT is approved and accepted by the CLIENT and COMPANY upon both parties
signing and dating the AGREEMENT. Services will not begin until COMPANY receives a signed
agreement. COMPANY’s services shall be limited to those expressly set forth in this
AGREEMENT and COMPANY shall have no other obligations or responsibilities for the Project

Discussion
The City’s Capital Improvement Program identifies rehabilitation work for Lift Station No. 10
located near the intersection of Cleveland Avenue and County Road E2. The lift station has been
in service for 31 years in the current configuration. Several improvements have been identified,
including the need to replace the aging pumps, check valves, air release valves and control panel.
This lift station also encounters problems with sewer flow backing up into the upstream manhole
due to the bottom elevation of the lift station wet well having minimal elevation drop from the
upstream gravity sewer.
On June 22, 2020, the City Council approved professional services with Bolton & Menk for
planning, design and construction. On May 10, 2021 City Council approved plans and
specifications and ordered advertisement for bids. On June 14, 2021 City Council approved
Resolution 2021-034 awarding the construction contract to Vinco Inc. in the amount of
$130,700.
Vinco Inc. has submitted Pay Request No. 2 (Attachment A) in the amount of $112,670.00. Staff

SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement Amendment for the Mounds View High School
Trail project – Final Design and Construction Administration
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source:
$N/A $200,963.50 PIR Fund, Ramsey County
Council Should Consider
Motions to approve, table, or deny the following:
• Amendment for Professional Services for Final Design and Construction
Administration for Mounds View High School Trail Improvements with SRF
Consulting Group, Inc. in the amount of $115,153.50
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Background/Discussion
On February 8, 2021, the City approved a professional services agreement with SRF Consulting
Group, Inc. (SRF) to design “shovel-ready” plans for the proposed trail along Lake Valentine
Road and Old Snelling Avenue that connects the existing trail at County Rd E2 to the Mounds
View High School. SRF has submitted an amendment (Attachment A) to provide professional
services for construction documents and construction. This contract will finalize plans for
bidding and provide for construction administration. Staff has reviewed the proposed amendment
and verified the scope of work met the needs for this project including Municipal State Aid
(MSA) standards and coordination.
Page 2 of 2
This project will be tied to the Ramsey County mill and overlay project on Old Snelling from
County Rd E to Hwy-96. All bidding and administration will be done by Ramsey County and
SRF. The Cooperative and Maintenance Agreement for the overall project with Ramsey County
is being drafted. This project is planned to be advertised for bidding in January 2023 and
construction in 2023.
Budget Impact
The PSA Amendment is in the amount of $115,153.50. Per the Ramsey County policy for
constructing trails within County right-of-way, the County will split design and construction
costs 50/50. The trail portion along Old Snelling (County ROW) equates to 40% of the overall
trail length, half of 40% of the design costs equates to $23,030.70 which will be covered by
Ramsey County. The City’s costs for the PSA Amendment with SRF will be $92,122.80. The
City was also awarded a Safe Routes to School Grant in the amount of $450,000 to assist in the
actual construction of the trail.

Subject: Amendment for Professional Services for Final Design and Construction Administration
for Mounds View High School Trail Improvements (PW-21-0105)
Arden Hills, Minnesota
Dear David Swearingen:
Based on your request, SRF Consulting Group, Inc. (SRF) is pleased to submit this amendment to
provide professional services for construction documents and construction administration for the
proposed trail along Lake Valentine Road and Snelling Avenue. The trail has previously been
designed to a 95% completion by SRF. This contract will finalize plans for bidding and provide for
construction administration.
Scope of Services
We propose to carry out the work (“Scope of Services”), set forth in Attachments B, attached hereto
and incorporated into this Agreement.
Assumptions
Specifications, Final Permits, Project Manual, bidding support, construction administration are based
on the assumption that final construction plans will proceed per 95% plans previously provided to
the City. Changes in design direction that deviate from the 95% plans may be grounds for
additional services.
Funding includes State of Minnesota Safe Routes to School sources and project will need to comply
for State funding requirements.
Construction anticipated in 2023.
It is assumed that the project will be coordinated with Ramsey County work at Old Snelling and
County Road E. The trail work in this proposal will move forward largely independently, but
bidding and contract administration will be facilitated by Ramsey County.
David Swearingen, P.E. August 30, 2022
City of Arden Hills Page 2
Additional assumptions are included in Attachment B.
Schedule
We will complete this work within a mutually agreed-upon time schedule.
Basis of Payment/Budget
We propose to be reimbursed for our services on an hourly basis for the actual time expended.
Other direct project expenses such as printing, supplies, reproduction, etc., will be billed at cost and
mileage will be billed at the current allowable IRS rate for business miles. Invoices are submitted on
a monthly basis for work performed during the previous month. Payment is due within 30 days.
Based on our understanding of the project and our scope of services, we estimate the cost of our
services to be $115,153.50, which includes both time and expenses.
Changes in the Scope of Services
It is understood that if the scope or extent of work changes, the cost will be adjusted accordingly.
Before any out-of-scope work is initiated, however, we will submit a budget request for the new
work and will not begin work until we receive authorization from you.
Standard Terms and Conditions
The attached Standard Terms and Conditions (Attachment A), and Scope of Services
(Attachment B), together with this proposal for professional services, constitute the entire
agreement between the Client and SRF Consulting Group, Inc. and supersede all prior written or
oral understandings. This agreement may only be amended, supplemented, modified, or canceled by
a duly executed written instrument.

A signed copy of this proposal, mailed or emailed to our office, will serve as acceptance of this
proposal and our notice to proceed. The email address is mmcgarvey@srfconsulting.com.

NEW BUSINESS – 10B
MEMORANDUM
DATE: September 26, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
Dave Perrault, City Administrator
FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director
SUBJECT: Consider Approval of Preliminary Tax Levy Payable in 2023 and Setting Budget
Public Hearing Date
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source:
N/A N/A N/A
Council Should Consider
Motions to approve, table or deny the following:
•Resolution 2022-042 setting the Preliminary Levy for Taxes Payable in 2023
•Resolution 2022-043 adopting Truth In Taxation Public Hearing Date for Proposed Taxes
Payable in 2023
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Background
State law requires that cities certify their proposed property tax levies to the county auditor by
September 30th. The proposed tax levy that is given preliminary approval may be lowered but
cannot be increased. Therefore, it is important that the proposed tax levy provides adequate
revenues to finance the 2023 Budget. The City Council needs to decide the maximum levy that it
is willing to approve and then adopt the attached resolution. The final levy will be set in December
2022.
A budget workshop was held with the Council on August 15, 2022. Staff was directed to provide
proposed maximum levy increase options from 4% to 7%. There will be another budget workshop
in either October or November, prior to the final levy and budget adoption meeting in December.
Discussion
Wages and Benefits
The 2023 preliminary budget is currently being prepared assuming a 3.0% wage adjustment for all staff.
There was a survey completed of neighboring communities and many are at 3.5% or higher. It is important
for the City to remain competitive in the marketplace. There is also a 6.5% increase assumed for health,
a 3% increase for dental and a 0.0% increase for life insurance premiums. The number of positions
included in the budget is remaining the same. There are changes to some of the wage allocations, the City
Page 2 of 6
Planner was promoted to the Community Development Director and the City Clerk was promoted to the
Assistant to the City Administrator.
If an increase in the COLA from 3.0% to 3.5% is requested, the budget impacts would be as follows:
The Union contract is already settled at 3.0% for 2023.
Below is a table showing the recent history of approved COLA’s.
Year Non Union IUOE Union
2022 3.00% 3.00% + addition of Fleet Lead
2021 2.00% 3.00%
2020 3.00% Market adjustment; minimum increase was 5.80%
2019 2.50% 2.50%
2018 2.10% 2.25%
Public Safety
2023 budget information was received from Ramsey County and Lake Johanna Fire Department for public
safety.
POLICE
The police contract is expected to rise by 4.0%, or $56,150 for 2023. Information provided by Ramsey
County on this increase is as follows:
The major cost drivers include:
• Personnel costs, including a one-time market adjustment for each job classification and a 2.25% cost
of living adjustment.
• An increase in Information Services fees due to budget increases and an increase in the percentage
charged to contract communities.
• Increases in county fleet rates and gasoline prices.
• $100,000 contingency funding which will be returned at year end if it is not needed. Our portion is
about $12,790.
DISPATCH
Dispatch costs will be increasing by 11.2%, or $6,930. This is mainly due to an error that was discovered
in 2020 in the way report queries undercounted medical calls in previous years for cities served by Allina.
This means an increase in call counts and an increase in cost sharing for the years 2021 - 2023. The
impact of this shift will happen over a three-year period (2021-2023) as the use of a three-year rolling
average of call counts smooths out variability in annual call fluctuations.

Cable TV Fund 220.00 -
EDA Fund 260.00 -
Utility Funds 3,120.00 1,670.00
Total 9,350.00 3,040.00
Page 3 of 6
FIRE
The fire costs are expected to rise by 7.8%, or $54,510 for 2023. This is mainly due to increased wages
for full time staff ($33,750), part time staff ($87,700), training ($38,250), clothing ($13,680), IT services
($16,650) and fuel/supplies ($19,100), all of which Arden Hills’ cost share portion is 24.9%. These
numbers do not take into account any of the new staffing models.
The levy increase needed to cover police and fire services is $117,590.
Revenues
There are no significant projects included in the 2023 budget which would affect the permit revenue. The
permit revenue included reflects only the estimated recurring “base” amount plus 50% of the average of
major projects over the past 10 years, similar to what was included in the 2022 budget.
General Fund budget to actual comparisons for the past two years is included as Attachment E.
Property Tax Levy
A survey was recently routed to various cities in the metro asking about proposed levy amounts being
considered. Below are the results of that survey.
Gem Lake 34.16% North St. Paul 8.48%
White Bear Lake 23.21% Shoreview 6.93%
St. Paul 15.00% Falcon Heights 6.70%
White Bear Township 14.87% Mounds View 6.50%
Vadnais Heights 13.00% Maplewood 6.50%
Little Canada 10.20% Blaine 5.40%
New Brighton 9.88% St. Anthony 5.39%
Roseville 8.90% Spring Lake Park 4.90%
Based on the 2022 County Assessor’s Report, values for the different property types have changed as
follows:
All Residential 15.80%
Single Family Residential 15.33%
Apartments (27.52%)
Commercial 3.43%
Industrial 18.50%
Because the values for residential properties are increasing by about the same percentage rate as the total
taxable value for Arden Hills, an increase in the property tax levy will cause a similar increase in a
residential property’s city tax amount.
Below are tables showing the impact of various levels of a city levy increase to Arden Hills’ homes
assuming that a home’s value is increasing by 15.33%, which is the median amount.
