September 14, 1998 Special Meeting Commissioner Larson requested a correction to page 2, third paragraph from the bottom, to change the wording "Commissioner Larson noted a curiosity" to "Commission Larson was curious." MOTION: Commissioner Keim moved and Commissioner Larson seconded a motion to approve the meeting minutes of the September 14, 1998 Special Meeting of the Economic Development Authority as corrected, The motion carried unanimously (5-0), UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS A. EDA Resolution #98-03. Adoption of 1999 EDA Budget Mr. Post explained that the EDA was asked to adopt EDA Resolution #98-03 which would adopt the 1999 EDA budget. He pointed out that TIF District No, 4 expends $1.4 million more than resources indicated which will be funded from bond proceeds remaining from 1998, Mr. Post called attention to Fund 702 which is active in the last four months of 1998 and 1999, He explained that Revolving Business Loan Fund No, 702 revenue transaction activity reflects the DRAFT ARDEN HILLS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY - DECEMBER 14, 1998 2 installment loan payments from CPI on a $100,000 Minnesota Department of Trade and e Economic Development loan, Mr. Post stated they are making note payments of principal and interest.

Mr. Post then reviewed TIF District No, 1, Round Lake Housing, where TIF revenue is down due to required district decertification action during 1999, He pointed out that this TIF district must be decertified in June of 1999 so no TIF revenue can be taken after that certification date, The proceeds of that TIF revenue are being used as an inner-fund loan to pay offKem Milling site acquisition costs initially funded by the PIR Fund No, 501. Mr. Post reviewed Fund 704, TIF District No, 2, Round Lake Office, which shows expenditures assuming that the Highway 96/Round Lake Road intersection project land acquisition will occur in 1999 instead of the originally planned 1998, The level of Ramsey County cost participation is an assumption in the absence of an approved agreement between the two parties at this time. Mr. Post reviewed Fund 705, TIF District No, 3, Cottage Villas, noting the slightly lower payout occurring to the developer which is, in part, due to lower TIF revenues occurring because the class rates for apartments is dropping, MOTION: Commissioner Malone moved and Commissioner Aplikowski seconded a motion to adopt EDA Resolution #98-03, Adoption of 1999 EDA Budget. The motion carried unanimously (5-0), e MISCELLANEOUS COMMENTS None, ADJOURN MOTION: Commissioner Malone moved and Commissioner Keim seconded a motion to adjourn the meeting at 7:27 p,m, The motion carried unanimously (5-0), Dennis Probst President Brian Fritsinger Secretary-Treasurer e e CITY OF ARDEN HILLS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY MEMORANDUM DATE: January 4.1999 TO: EDA President and Board of Commissioners FROM: Kevin Ringwald, Executive Director SUBJECT: Property acquisition for Round Lake Road/Highway 96 intersection (Indykiewicz property) Requested Action The EDA is being requested to authorize the City Attorney to prepare a purchase agreement for the entire Indykiewicz parcel (1920 Highway 96) for a price not to exceed $1,150,000,00 (excluding dirt and fixtures), subject to stable soils and no environmental contamination, . Back!!round As you are aware, the City has been working on improving the intersection of Round Lake Road and Highway 96 with Ramsey County, This work has proposed the easterly relocation of this connection, so as to improve separation from the 1-35W interchange and to improve access to the Gateway Business District (GBD), The City Engineer in conjunction with Ramsey County have determined what that realignment should be (Exhibit A). The City has taken, and will take numerous actions, to effectuate this realignment. The City Council on June 8,1998, adopted Resolution No, 98-44, which authorized the condemnation of the 6,8 acre Indykiewicz property (Exhibit B), The City Attorney served legal notice to the Indykiewicz's on September 11, 1998, which started the 90 day "Quick Take" process, Therefore, the theoretical acquisition date would be Thursday, December 10, 1998, However, the City has yet to provide the property owner the required 30 day notice to vacate the property, The Staff has been continually working with the property owners in an attempt to avoid court action and resolve this acquisition through a negotiated settlement, How was the oronosed Purchase Price determined? The Staff authorized the preparation of two appraisals for the total acquisition of the Indykiewicz parcel. The two appraisals were required by Ramsey County to qualify for reimbursement, The two appraisals were then sent to a review appraiser who determined what the value of the property should be, The review appraiser determined that the value ofthe property should be $1,030,000,00, which happened to be exactly the value of the higher of the two appraisals, The lndykiewicz's had an appraisal completed for their property and it determined that the value was at least $1,300,000,00, The Staff extended an informal offer to the Indykiewicz's of $1,100,000,00, The Indykiewicz's counter-offered with a value of$I,150,000,OO, which is the . price being forwarded to the EDA for its consideration, Indykiewicz Property Acquisition Page Two January 4, 1999 e Do we have to buv the entire nronertv? No, The EDA can choose to just purchase that part of the property required for the road, which is approximately 4,05 acres (see Exhibit A), The Staff authorized the preparation of an appraisal for the "partial taking", The value determined by the appraiser was $635,000,00 (including $16,000 in severance damages). However, the property owner has stated that they are not interested in a partial take, Therefore, a negotiated settlement is not possible for the partial take, Additionally, the property owner has stated that if a partial take is pursued that they would file an adverse condemnation suit and attempt to force the purchase of the entire site, The property owner believes that the remnant parcel is to small to provide for their business needs and that it provides for an unsafe point of access for trucks entering and exiting the site, The property owner mayor may not prevail on their adverse condemnation claim, but it would certainly add additional time and money to the project. What is the status on price for Fixtures and Dirt? The property owner has stated that the fixtures are worth $143,650,00 and the dirt is worth $210,000,00 (35,000 cubic yards x $6,OO/cubic yard) for a total of$353,650,OO, The Staff has authorized the preparation of a fixture appraisal, which will determine the price of the fixtures and dirt. It is anticipated that the appraisal will be ready within the 10 to 14 days, . The property owner has suggested that they are amenable to coming to agreement on the purchase price of the property, excluding fixtures and dirt, now and continue to work on the value of these items, Essentially, what is being proposed is that if a negotiated agreement on the fixtures and dirt is not reached (say, within 30 days of the signing of the purchase agreement) then an arbitration process would start to resolve the value of these items, Assumably then, $353,650,00 would be the worst case scenario for the fixtures and dirt, unless our appraisal comes in at a higher number, Whv not let Ramsev County build the intersection in their time frame? Ramsey County is in the process of reconstructing Highway 96 road from Old Highway 8 in New Brighton to Interstate 35E in White Bear Lake, Ramsey County has segmented this reconstruction project over a period of years, The original reconstruction schedule (January, 1996 - Concept Study) for the entire project was estimated to commence in the year 1997 and conclude in the year 2000, Two segments of this reconstruction project are located in the City of Arden Hills, Segment One is from Old Highway 8 to Highway I 0 and Segment Two is from Highway 10 to Lexington A venue, The reconstruction of Segment One was originally planned to commence in 1998, The reconstruction would involve the provision of a four lane divided highway, reconstruction of the Interstate 35W bridge, relocation of the West Round Lake Road intersection, relocation of the entrance to the Arden Manor Mobile Home Park, and reconstruction of the Highway 10 intersection, . . . . Indykiewicz Property Acquisition Page Three January 4, 1999 The City of Arden Hills has been working on redeveloping the area at the northeast comer of Interst~t" ,~w ~nrl Tnt"r<t~t" hQ4 which ;< knOWlLas the Gateway RlIsine<s District (GRD) and whose sole access is via West Round Lake Road, The City proceeded with the redevelopment of this area based on the aforementioned reconstruction schedule and approved the development of approximately 500,000 square feet of new Office/Showroom development in the GBD, As part of that development the City implied that the employees in this new development would be able to safely get out to Highway 96, The reconstruction schedule for Segment One of the Highway 96 project is currently estimated to commence in the year 1999 and conclude in the year 2002, The City can choose to provide traffic police at the corner until the County reconstructs the road or the City can advance fund the project and get repaid by the County when their funding is available, Ramsey County staff has informed the City that they anticipate that their funds will begin to be available for repayment to the City late in the Spring of 1998. At this time it is unclear whether all of the repayment funds from Ramsey County would be available then or just a portion. The Staff previously estimated that traffic control by police would cost $2,000,00 per week ($40 per hour per deputy x two deputies x 5 hours per day x 5 days per week), The developer (Welsh Development) is responsible for paying for this service until March 31,1999, after that date it is the City's responsibility, If the Ramsey County project is not anticipated to be completed until the year 2002 (assume, October 1,2002), then the traffic police option could cost up to $364,000.000 (182 weeks x $2,000 per week), The City would then still have to pay Ramsey County for upgrading the intersection (signalization, urban section, and additional lanes), The City Engineer estimates in his December 29,1998 memorandum (Exhibit C) that this upgrade cost would be $531,910,00 ($1,016,110,00 - $484,200,00), Thereby, bringing the total cost of this option to $895,910,00 ($364,000,00 + $531,910,00) and the City would not own the remnant part of the Indykiewicz site, What is the status of the cost-sharinl! al!reement with Ramsev County? The Staff and Ramsey County have been preparing a Memorandum of Understanding, This document lays out the cost sharing agreement for this project, The document is still in draft form, It is anticipated that the document will be finalized at a Stafflevel in the next six to eight weeks, After which it will be forwarded to the County Board and the City for their approvals, Ramsey County needs to provide the City with a road similar to what it currently has (ie" 36 foot wide pavement, rural design with 66 feet ofright-of-way), but in a new location, The basic outline of the draft is contained on the following table, which summarizes the cost participation for Ramsey County (Re) and Arden Hills (AH), Indykiewicz Property Acquisition Page Four January 4, 1999 .

It can be funded up front or over time, a. Upfront funding. Under this scenario, the City would front 100 percent of the project costs until such time that Ramsey County reimbursed the City, Under this scenario, the Staff would recommend the following: . TIF Bond proceeds/Fund 704 . PIRlFund 501 $1,600,000,00 $972.367,60 $2,572,367,60 . e . . Indykiewicz Property Acquisition Page Five January 4,1999 The PIR fund currently has a balance of approximately $4,800,000,00, The intent would be to reimburse the PIR fund as proceeds are received from Ramsey County, Land Sales, Fixture/Dirt Sales, excess TIF, etc", b. Installment funding. The City has discussed the concept of funding the project over time with the Indykiewicz family. Under this scenario, the City could spread the purchase of the property over three years and pay an interest rate of eight percent (8%) on the outstanding balance, The additional cost to finance this option would be approximately $120,000,00, It is unknown at this time if Ramsey County would consider sharing in the carrying costs, Recommendation Authorize the Staff to hire a consultant to conduct a Phase 1 environmental analysis of the property, Authorize the City Attorney to prepare a purchase agreement for the entire Indykiewicz parcel (1920 Highway 96) for a price not to exceed $1,150,000,00 (excluding dirt and fixtures), subject to the following: 1, Stable soils and no environmental contamination, 2, Approval of the purchase agreement by the EDA. /" e e e \ \ o z "" -' I- W ""~ w u !;i"" \ -'0 w w' ~I- u" "">- 0:::-- ~a::: -< X'" "-...; "00 "ci- "-O::Z 'm fc-5 Q:: If) )"'m",,~ -, "- "---'........

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: December 24, 1998 TO: Mayor and City Council Brian Fritsinger, City AdministraW FROM: SUBJECT: Sandra Berres, Employment Status Background Ms. Berres was initially hired on June 22, 1998 as Senior Accounting Clerk for the City of Arden Hills. Chapter 19, Arden Hills Code, requires that employees complete a six (6) month probationary period in order to determine whether or not the employee demonstrates fitness for the position. Under Section 19-6 (c) of Municipal Code, the City Council shall consider the recommendation of the City Administrator or Department Head as to whether the employee should or should not be made a regular employee. Recommendation Staff would recommend the City Council approve the appointment of Ms. Berres as a regular, full-time employee with the City of Arden Hills. BF/sls . . . CITY OF ARDEN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: December 30,1998 TO: Mayor and City Council Brian Fritsinger, City Administrat~ Probationary Appointment FROM: SUBJECT: Background Several weeks ago, through the resignation of Jeff Koesling, a Parks Maintenance position became available. Staff has advertised, evaluated and interviewed a number of applicants for this position. After completing the appropriate background, criminal and reference checks, staff has offered the position to Scott Freyberger. Recommendation Staff recommends the City Council approve the six (6) month probationary appointment of Scott Freyberger as a Parks Maintenance employee for the City of Arden Hills. Mr. Freyberger is expected to begin his duties with the City on January 14, 1999. BF/sls e e e CITY OF ARDEN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: December 29, 1998 TO: Mayor and City Council 16\ Brian Fritsinger, City Administrato@ FROM: SUBJECT: Increase in Milea~e Reimbursement Background The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has set the 1999 automobile mileage reimbursement rate at 31 cents per mile. Employers may reimburse employees for substantiated business miles at this rate. The City Council has historically taken action that allows the City employee reimbursement rate to match the IRS rate. The decrease from 32.5 cents to 31 cents represents a 4.8% reduction. The City Council may also wish to take action which automatically makes this adjustment on an annual basis, subject to the determination of the IRS. Recommendation Staff recommends that Council consider approving the 1999 mileage reimbursement rate of 31 cents per mile as permitted by the IRS, and further directs the City Administrator to adjust this rate on an annual basis, subject to the determination of the IRS. BF/sls . IRS Releases 1999 Standard Mileage Rates The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has issued Revenue Procedure 98-63 (Internal Revenue Bulletin 1998-52, Dec. 28, 1998) which lists the busi- ness standard mileage rate that employees, self-employed individu- als, and other taxpayers should use in calculating their business travel, charitable, medical, and moving expense deductions for 1999. The. IRS Revenue Procedure reduces the mileage rate for business travel from 32.5 cents per mile in 1998 to 31 cents per mile in 1999, but the stan- dard mileage rates for charitable and medical or moving expenses remain unchanged for 1999. 0 e e e e e CITY OF ARDEN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: December 29, 1998 TO: City Council 1:\, \ Dennis Probst, Ma~ City Appointments - 1999 FROM: SUBJECT: ReQuested Action The City Council is asked to consider the following appointments for calendar year 1999. Background Each Councilmember received a copy of my suggested changes in Committee Liaisons for 1999 as part of last week's non-agenda packet. As a result, I have not included those appointments as part of this memorandum. Historically, we have also appointed members to each ofthe various committees at this time. I expect that the committees and their membership will be discussed in greater length as part of this year's retreat and again, I have not included any details for future committee membership. The one exception is the Planning commission, which is a requirement of State and Municipal Code. There are no other significant changes to the appointment list this year. After discussing these other appointments with the City Administrator, I believe they are appropriate. Miscellaneous Appointments A. Professional Consultants 1. City Consulting Engineer. . . . . . ..

CITY OF ARDEN ffiLLS MEMORANDUM DATE: December 24, 1998 TO: Mayor and City Council _ /r') Brian Fritsinger, City Administratfr (ye 1999 Pay Plan FROM: SUBJECT: Requested Action The council is asked to consider changes to the 1999 Pay Plan. Background The Arden Hills City Council historically has amended its Pay Plan at the beginning of each calendar year. As a result of additional changes to the organizational plan, staff has held off on changes to the pay plan. During 1997, the City Council negotiated a labor agreement with the Local 49 which included a 3% increase in base pay and an additional $10 per month to be contributed to the insurance premiums. These figures were included in the 1999 Budget, which was adopted on December 14,1998. The effect of the increase of 3% on pay ranges is shown in Attachment A. The City Council will note the addition of the Parks and Recreation Director position. The Community Development Director activities have been absorbed by existing staff. The points for certain exempt positions have been revised, based on changes injob descriptions resulting from the ongoing reorganization. The City, in 1998, contributed up to $320 per month to be used toward employee health and dental insurance. With a $10 per month increase, the City in 1999 would contribute $330 per month toward health and dental insurance. The pay plan has been reviewed for compliance with State of Minnesota Pay Equity requirements and appears to be in compliance. Recommendation Staff recommends the City Council adopt Resolution #99-05, IdentifYing the 1999 Pay Plan, including an increase of$IO.OO per month toward monthly insurance premiums. BF/sls CITY OF ARDEN HILLS COUNTY OF RAMSEY STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 99-05 RESOLUTION IDENTIFYING THE 1999 PAY PLAN WHEREAS, the City of Arden Hills is required to comply with the Local Government Pay Equity Act; and WHEREAS, Minnesota Rules Chapter 3920 specifY the procedure and criteria for measuring compliance; and WHEREAS, the City's pay plan received notice of compliance in 1997 from the Minnesota Department of Employee Relations; and WHEREAS, the City Council has revised the pay ranges included in this plan for 1999; and WHEREAS, the City Council has found an increase in the City's contribution toward monthly health and dental premiums to be appropriate. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Arden Hills, Minnesota that the City adopts the 1999 Pay Plan as attached. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City increases the City's contribution toward monthly health and dental premiums by $10.00 for 1999 ($330.00 per month).

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS DATE: MEMORANDUM December 30,1998 TO: Brian Fritsinger, City Administrator Terrance Post, City Accountant @) Bingo Hall License Renewal FROM: SUBJECT: At the January 4, 1999 regular Council meeting, Council will be presented with Resolution No. 99-06, dealing with the above subject. The Minnesota Gambling Control Board requires the local unit of govenunent to evidence approval by individual resolution rather than by group consent. Discussion Council last took action with this establishment by adopting Resolution No. 98-14, which approved the Pot 0' Gold renewal bingo hall license application for the period from June I, 1998 to May 31, 1999. The action before Council at this time is another application for a bingo hall license renewal from the same applicant for the period from June 1, 1999 to May 31, 2000. Staff is not aware of any issues that would cause staff not to endorse Resolution No. 99-06. The reason this application is coming to Council so early is because the applicant (Goldie Siedow) will be out of the country during the time the renewal application would normally have been submitted. Recommendation Staffrecommcnds that Council consider adopting Resolution No. 99-06, "Resolution Approving Bingo Hall License Renewal Application" at the January 4,1999 regular Council meeting. Enclosures CITY OF ARDEN HILLS COUNTY OF RAMSEY STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 99-06 RESOLUTION APPROVING BINGO HALL LICENSE RENEWAL APPLICATION THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City of Arden Hills agrees to approve the Bingo Hall Renewal License Application for the Arden Hills Bingo Hall (Pot-O-Gold) from Goldie K.
