The loans would be relatively short
term (in the neighborhood of five
years) and would have to be repaid,
with interest. They would have to be
secured by either a general obliga-
tion pledge from the municipality or
a pledge of other assets.
No similar authorization is contained
in the House's public finance bill.
However, the Met Council has made
several changes to the language in
an attempt to respond to concerns
expressed by House members, the
AMM and other interested parties.
Those changes include elimineting
the requirement that an applicant
must be a participant in the Livable
Communities Program, eliminating
the requirement for a local match and
be asked to provide, and under what
conditions the Council would extend
services.
The concept of extending wastewa-
ter services to rural growth centers
stems from the Council's work on
the new Regional Blueprint and a
recent report from the Council's Ru-
rallssues Workgroup. The rural is-
sues report recommends that the
Council work to direct growth and
development toward rural centers,
and away from other rural areas,
such as those designated "perma-
nent agricultural." This would pre-
sumably help the region accommo-

Metropolitan Council Seeks Authorization for
Housing Production Revolving Loan Fund
The public finance article of the
Senate's budget bill (H.F. 3270) con-
tains a provision that would autho-
rize the Metropolitan Council to es-
tablish a Housing Production Revolv-
ing Loan Fund, utilizing existing Coun-
cil resources and any gifts or grants
awarded to the Council for the pur-
pose of the fund.
.
The fund would be used to make
loans to metropolitan cities, counties,
townships or development authori-
ties for projects with "a reasonable
probability of resulting in lower hous-
ing costs in the metropolitan area."
Eligible projects include those which
"support housing production and en-
sure integration of land use and
transportation needs."
clarification that communities under-
taking both redevelopment and de-
velopment projects are eligible to re-
ceive loans.
The Council has also agreed to es-
tablish a loan review committee,
composed of individuals with exper-
tise in finance, development and 10-
cai government; and adopt uniform
criteria and procedures for the pro.
gram, which will be subject to public
hearing. Finally, the Metropolitan
Council would have to submit an
annual report on the program to the
Legislative Commission on the Met-
ropolitan Council.
A copy of the draft language is avail-
able by calling AMM at651/215~OOO.
Metropolitan Council Considers Expanding Wastewater
Treatment to Rural Growth Centers in Metro Area
In recent weeks, Metropolitan Coun-
cil staff and members have been dis-
cussing the possibility of extending
wastewater services to rural growth
centers in and around the seven-
county metropolitan area. Commu-
nities identified as rural growth cen-
ters inclUde SI. Francis, Watertown,
Bethel, Hamburg, Mayer, New Ger-
many, Hampton, Vermillion, 8elle
Plaine, Cologne, Jordan, Rockford,
and NorwOOd-Young America.
.
The idea raises numerous issues
regarding how such an expansion
would be paid for, the level of sub-
sidy that existing rate payers would
date the 460,000 new households

Arden Hills name, master partner,
City vies for share of
TeAAP property
Stephanie Ariganello
staff writer
.
The Arden Hills City Council selected
a development partner in the stalled war
over the Twin Cities Army Ammunition
Plant land. The selection of a 'master
developer signifies Arden Hills' anticipa-
tion in obtaining acreage from the old
plant.
The council voted 3.2 in favor of a pri_
vate development team that includes
Centex Homes, ~ntex Family Housing,
the Glenn Rehbein Companies and the
Ryan Companies, as tentative developers
in a redevelopment effort that could theo-
retically double Arden Hills' popUlation.

take that risk and work with US.'"
The private-sector development conglomerate will
provide Arden Hills with necessaty resources, while
working with the federal government to get the land
transfer. .
"Our group will work to heJp ,.assure that land is
transferred to the city and to also support a public
process to create a plan which reflects the vision of
the people of Arden Hills and surrounding commu-
niti~s," Roger Fraley, Centex Multi-Family Commu-
~ties Upper Midwest Region Division Manager said
In a recent press. release. "In St. Paul, our group
helped transform a polluted industrial site into a
new neighborhood. TCAAP represents another
opportunity to again work with the public to create
amazing new development that meets the needs of
the community."
now seeks land
,.erations to come," said Mayor Dennis
''''1"robst. "'The redevelopment of the
TCAAP site is a keystone to Arden Hills'
future. We now have a public/private
partnership that brings us the experience,
resources and a commitment to work
with the community to begin this pro.
cess."
Arden Hills is in line for a portion of
the 2,370 acres of land that could be
excised by the Army. At this stage, the
gQal of the city is to prepare for the
potential bf having land transferred to its
control. Signing a developer on the pro-
ject is expected to make the process go
smoother in the legislature.
Council members have expressed a
desire for a community-focused redevel-
opment plan, zeroing in on housing and
retail zonings.
The piece in question is anywhere
from 500-800 acres of once highly con-
taminated land. The Army, in an agree-
ment with the EPA, is obligated to clean
up the TCAAP environment at leaRt to
industrial standards.
To build retail or housing on such sites
would require additional cleaning in
order to elevate the environmentaJ condi,
tions - part of the reason Arden Hills
decided to contact an outside. developer
rather than tackle the development work
by themselves..
"1 thought it was a little premature,"
said Council Member Beverlv
Aplikowski. "I went with the f1n~
though. We realized that we needed
someone with Washington connections
and deep enough pockets to undertake
such a development, so we decided to go
with a developer and not just do it by
ourselves. The time, .energy and money
that would be expended in the process,
we had to choose a developer. Fortu.
nately, there were several that said they'd
see Developer on Page 8A
Aplikowski and Lois Rem were the two nays for
the Centex group, both showing support for locally
owned. and operated Opus.
"It was a gut reaction," said Aplikowski. "I believe
in those at my age."
The one remaining obstacle is actually securing
the Army land.
"The [Army] has already started excising the
land," said Joe Lynch, Arden Hills City Administra-
tor. "That can be a process of 24-30 months if the
time frame can be kept to. We could have develop"
ment within 36 months, with some type of ground
broken. "
Arden Hills has been through this before. When
attempting to acquire a chunk of land to house its
new City Hall, the administration turned to the
Army for TCAAP land. The process took about 10
years, and the City Hall opened last fall
"That time frame probably is what's been ref~T-
enced the most," said Lynch. "But it was a small
piece of property. They were not as involved and
wanting to get rid of that property. I understand
with this project the Army wants to be involved."
Others are not as optimistic.
"I used to say not in my lifetime, but I suppose 1
may have to change that one," said Aplikowski in
response to an inquiry regarding when TCA.AP land
will be transferred to the city. "It's very difficult to
project out. Somewhere between seven and 10 years.
Everybody is saying the Army is ready to excise, but
so far it has yet to happen. We have to go through
legislative processes, and with the current climate,
itls not going to happen this year or the next."
Lynch said Arden Hills will seek public fee<lliack
sometime within the next 90.120 days. Residents
and businesses will be notified.

ST. PAUL CITY HAll BRIEFING
+ City, developer redo
Upper Landing deal
.
.
Facing a funding shortfall,
the developer of the Upper
Landing ''urban village" in St.
Paul agreed to a reworked
deal with the city Wednesday.
Officials from Dallas-based
Centex Corp. blamed the fund-
ing shortage on changes made
in the' state Legislature last
year reducing the amount of
. tax-increment-financing (TIF)
available for the project. The
$170 million mixed-use devel-
opment, which would add 600
housing units to the city's
riverfront, is the most expen-
sive project of its kind in St.
Paul's history.
The new agreement, which
was approved by the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority,
would change an BRA loan to
a $3 million grant to Centex. In
return, Centex would give the
city any extra revenue gener.
ated from the Upper Landing
TIF district.
"Since the LegIslature
changed the (TIF) law, we had
to find a way to make the
yield," said Roger Fraley, proj-
ect manager for Centex. "In
the end, we didn't get the deal
we wanted, and the city didn't
get what they wanted, but we
got It done."
Interim planning director
Tony Schertler noted that the
city's financial commitment
could have been reduced if the
developer removed affordable
housing from the project, but
city officials rejected that idea
Fraley said that despite the
funding obstacles, the project
has stayed on course. The
development has already
begun to take shape on 21
acres along the Mississippi
River. The first phase of hous-
ing is expected to be under
way later this year, and offi-
cials are optimistic the project
will be completed in the next
four years. "The city bent over
backwards with Centex to
make the deal work," said
Song Lo Fawcett, an attorney
for the developer. 'We're real-
ly happy about that."

PUBLIC SAFETY
Tuesday that it was ready to
go ahead and start renovating
the Benz Building immediate-
ly, with or without the city.
''I'm willing to wait a
week," County Board Chair.
man Jim McDonough said of
the delay. "But I don't think I
can make any guarantees
about the rest of the board."
He doubted there would be
any further negotiation on the
deal.
The city has several times
considered co-Iocating police
headquarters 'and the Ramsey
County Law Enforcement Cen.
ter. Mayor Randy Kelly pro-
posed the move again this win-
ter, hoping the move would
open up the current headquar-
ters site for downtown rede-
velopment.
"We need to get these
agencies working side by
side," Deputy Mayor Dennis
F1aherty said Wednesday.
"There are hnge benefits to
integrating them together and
share facilities. From a tax.
dollar standpoint, it is clearly
the most sensible. direction to
go."

Mayor Probst suggested rather than trying to incorporate that language into this

Council Member Larson stated he did not disagree with Council Member Grant's
suggestion, but he was not sure the Parks, Trail and Open Space plan should take
precedence over the Storm Water Management Plan. He stated he would rather
adopt a motion that stating that the parklands were schematic and any decision to
proceed with these plans would require action by the Council. He stated he wanted
to make it clear these were not final plans.
Council Member Grant asked if he amended his motion to take into consideration
park size, would Council Member Larson still have a concern with this motion.
Council Member Larson stated he had a problem that this plan would take
precedence over another plan. He stated this was a schematic based on the
Committee's recommendation as a scenario for development. He stated if this had
a direct effect on Valentine Park then they should address Valentine Park and not
the whole plan.
Council Member Larson requested a friendly amendment to read, "space for park
activity shall take precedence over use for ponding".
Council Member Grant added to Council Member Larson's friendly amendment,
"specifically with respect to Valentine Park".
Council Member Grant and Council Member Aplikowski accepted the friendly
amendment.
MOTION: Council Member Larson moved and Council Member Aplikowski
seconded a motion to substitute the first motion with the following
"Space for park activity shall take precedence over use for ponding,
specifically with respect to Valentine Park". Substitute motion carried
unanimously (5-0).
C. Plannine Case 02-07: Goserud Preliminary Plat
City Planner Parrish explained that the applicant was requesting approval of a
preliminary plat to divide one existing lot zoned R-I Single Family Residential
into two lots zoned R-I Single Family Residential. The applicant was also
requesting a variance to allow for a private access and a variance to allow an 8-foot
accessory structure setback where 10 feet was required. He stated the Planning
Commission recommended denial of the preliminary plat and platting variances.

Council Member Larson asked how there was an adverse affect to adjacent
property owners. Mr. Parrish replied there was no adverse affect to the adjacent
property owners.
Mayor Probst asked what the City Code said with respect to flag lots. Mr. Parrish
replied if there was a flag lot, they needed to address an access issue and certain
street frontage issues, but the Code did not specifically prohibit flag lots.
Tom Goserud, 4350 Hamline Avenue, stated they did not have a drainage problem.
He stated he did not understand why this became an issue at the Planning
Commission meeting. He indicated there were a lot of trees, grass, and shrubs
growing along the southern property line and there were no drainage issues. He
stated there would be no trees removed if this were approved. He presented the
background on his property and stated the City had landlocked his property
through various past actions. He indicated this may not be an ideal proposal, but it
was the best that could be done with the property at this time.
Council Member Grant asked if the driveway would be a separate driveway. Mr. .
Goserud stated they would use the same curb cut, but then split off.
Council Member Larson asked if this proposal went forward, was Mr. Goserud
going out of the nursery business. Mr. Goserud stated they would not have the
nursery business on the property if this were approved.
Council Member Larson asked if Mr. Goserud also owned the lot directly to the
south. Mr. Goserud replied he did own it and it was his intent to possibly develop
that at some point in the future. He indicated that piece of property already had its
own curb cut.
Council Member Rem asked if the Planning Commission had the drainage plan at
their meeting. Mr. Parrish replied they did have the plan, but at that time, a field
inspection had not been conducted subsequent to the Planning Commission
meeting. The City Engineer has conducted a field inspection.
Mayor Probst spoke in favor of the Planning Commission's position. He stated
this plan was very similar to the previous plan that had been submitted. He stated
if they approved this, he was concerned that the adjacent site would also have a
similar plan, and he could not support this as it was presented. He expressed

. concern regarding the flag lots that were being created. He urged the Council to
support the Planning Commission's position.
.
.
Mr. Goserud stated if they did put a street and cul-de-sac on the property, they
could probably only get two lots out of the land.
Council Member Aplikowski stated creating another flag lot was not unusual in the
City and they mostly came about because of actions of previous event. She
expressed concern about the 14- foot width driveway, but she stated this would not
stop her from approving this plan.
MOTION: Council Member Aplikowski moved and Council Member Grant
seconded a motion to approve Case 02-07, Goserud Preliminary Plat
and variances.
Scott Colson, 1321 Wyncrest, stated he was against this proposal. He indicated
this would have a negative impact to him and his neighbors. He stated this was not
a good proposal. He indicated the neighbors were unified against doing this. He
objected to the road running along his back property line. He stated there was a
drainage issue on his property. He indicated ponding occurred on the back of his
property whenever there was a hard rain, and adding concrete for a road would not
improve that condition. He stated there were ample opportunities to subdivide this
property when the rest of the subdivision occurred and now was not a good time
for this proposal. He indicated everything was already set in place in the
neighborhood, and this was much more difficult for the neighbors. He stated
approving this encouraged the next property owner to do the same type of a
development. He asked if the City wanted a lot of flag lots. He urged Council to
accept the Planning Commission's recommendation.
John Gibson, 1297 Wyncrest Court, stated he did not support granting this
proposal. He stated the City rules existed for good reasons and this proposed
development was not a good reason for granting what was being requested. He
expressed concern about granting the variances. He urged Council to not grant the
vanances.
Joann Pastorius, 1350 Wyncrest Court, stated after the last hard rain and Mr.
Colson's yard was actually sinking. There was a major drainage issue and while
there was a drainage system there, it took days to drain the water. She stated there
was also a fire hydrant that might need to be moved and expressed concern about a

MAY 28, 2002

fire engine being able to access the hydrant. She stated there was not a natural
frontage for this proposal and she questioned the City setting this type of
precedence. She urged Council to deny this request.
.
Council Member Grant stated applicants had a right to come forward with a plan
and what they wanted to do with their land.
Council Member Aplikowski asked the City Engineer to comment on the drainage
issue. City Engineer Brown replied he concurred with applicant's characterization
as to how things flowed, and as long as the driveway drained into Hamline
Avenue, there really should be no reason this would create a drainage problem. He
stated some reworking needed to be done, and while there may be a low spot or
two, this proposal might actually help any drainage problems the residents
indicated they experienced.
Mayor Probst stated he would not support this motion. He agreed the property
owner had a right to present their proposal, but it did not obligate the City to accept
the proposal. He expressed concern about setting precedence if this was approved.
He stated he did not believe this was a good plan.
.
Council Member Larson stated he would support the motion. He believed Mr.
Goserud in good faith came back to the City with a new proposal after the Council
rejected the previous plan. He indicated he believed the proposal was a good one.
He stated the Fire Department had indicated they were comfortable with the
location of the hydrant. He indicated he would not object to a condition being
added if the lot was developed, there would not be a building permit issued until
the drainage issues had been addressed. He stated Mr. Goserud had as good of an
argument as any other resident in the City with respect to the issuance of a
variance. He indicated while it might not be the best solution, it was a reasonable
one. He inquired about the Park Dedication Fee and how this was going to be
determined. He urged Council to base the Park Dedication Fee on an independent
appraisal.
Council Member Aplikowski stated it was not Mr. Goserud's property that had a
drainage issue, but the adjoining properties, and she did not see that developing
this property would affect those drainage issues and may, in fact, help the
neighbors' drainage issues.

. Mayor Probst stated the motion needed to indicate the approval was based on the
findings and conditions as outlined in staffs report.
.
.
Council Member Larson requested the following friendly amendment: "Taking
into consideration the referenced recommendations and the conditions that were
outlined in staffs report". Altering condition number one to read: "The building
pennit will not be granted if satisfactory drainage cannot be provided." Condition
number five to be inserted after the dedication fee, "the payment of the appropriate
park dedication fee is based on an independent appraisal prior to final platting".
Council Member Aplikowski and Council Member Grant accepted the friendly
amendment.
Motion carried (3-2) (Council Member Rem and Mayor Probst).
Mayor Probst requested Items D and E be addressed at the same time.
D.
E.
TCAAP Land Use and Infrastructure Plannine:
University Desie:n Center - TCAAP Community Dialoe:ue
Mr. Parrish explained it was anticipated the Army would be issuing its Report of
Excess for portions of the TCAAP in the very near future. He stated it was staff s
intention to retain a planning firm as soon as practical to ensure the timeline for
developing a comprehensive land use and infrastructure plan for the property was
consistent with the land transfer process. Staff recommended the Request for
Qualifications process is used to select a TCAAP land use and infrastructure
consultant.
Mr. Parrish explained the City had looked at partnering with the University of
Minnesota's Design Center for the American Urban Landscape to conduct a
"Community Dialogue" regarding the reuse of TCAAP, He stated they were
currently scheduling Thursday, June 6, at 7:00 p.m. for the first Community Open
House.
Mayor Probst urged Council to move forward with staffs recommendation and get
a consultant on board to assist the City with this plan.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MAY 28, 2002

Council Member Aplikowski asked if this process would help the City come up
with a reasonable expectation of their vision. Mayor Probst stated this was what it
was designed to do.
.
Mr, Parrish replied the City would manage the planning process and this would
incorporate the Community's vision.
Council Member Grant stated it made good sense to hire an infrastructure
consultant at this time. He requested an economic impact assessment be prepared
to ensure the existing residents and business owners were not subsidizing the
TCAAP development.
Council Member Rem inquired about the aggressiveness of the schedule. Mr.
Parrish replied they could evaluate other options if a Council Member wanted to
participate on the interview panel, but given the time constraints, they put this on
the staffs level.
Council Member Rem indicated she was hesitant to move forward on such an
aggressive schedule.
.
Council Member Larson stated it was important the City get their planning in place
as soon as possible. He requested they look at planning a broader portion of
TCAAP other than just the portion being currently released. He stated it was
important to know what was going to be planned for the entire property, even if the
Army held onto the remainder of the property for a while. He stated if they did not
get moving on this, the City would be at a disadvantage.
MOTION: Council Member Larson moved and Council Member Aplikowski
seconded a motion to proceed with a solicitation of qualification from
planning firms to develop TCAAP land use, and to approve plans to
retain the Design Center to facilitate a community dialogue. The
motion carried unanimously (5-0).

Mr. Brown stated they had completed the plans and specifications and they were
now at the point of an assessment hearing. He stated they could start advertising
for bids the week after next if approved by Council.
Council Member Grant asked if they had any indication as to the bid process. Mr.
Brown stated the bid process was fairly routine, and he did not see any conflicts
with this project being done later in the season.
Council Member Rem asked why they were addressing this now at this time. She
asked if this was catch up work. Mr. Lynch replied that was correct. He indicated
it was something that should have been done previously.
Council Member Aplikowski stated this type of an action concerned her, but she
would support it.
Council Member Rem stated she would feel more comfortable sIgmng a
Resolution indicating when the project would be done.
Larson suggested putting in the word formally before report in the Resolution and
staffs report.
MOTION: Council Member Larson moved and Council Member Aplikowski
seconded a motion to approve Resolution Nos, 02-21, Ordering
Report on Improvement of Hunters Court and Waldon Place. The
motion carried unanimously (5-0).
MOTION: Council Member Larson moved and Council Member Aplikowski
seconded a motion to approve Resolution No. 02-22, Receiving
Report and Calling Hearing on Improvement of Hunters Court and
Waldon Place adding in the word "formallv received by the
Council..." and amending staffs report by adding in the words
"formallv receiving Report. ,,". The motion carried unanimously (5-
0).
Council Member Larson stated he had previously voted against this Resolution
leaving the street width as it was, but he was supporting this despite the alternative
to have some uniformity among the Council.

Mayor Probst stated he had received a letter from a resident of Hunters Court
indicating they were not in support of this proposal.
.
G. PMP Proiect for 2003
City Engineer Brown presented the 2003 CIP projects.
Council Member Larson stated it was important to keep the City infrastructure up
and he stated what was being proposed was a good proposal.
Mr. Lynch stated this would also impact possible investors and could affect the
City's bond rating.
Council Member Rem stated she had reservations about the storm water, utility
plan for that neighborhood. She stated she was not sure this was going to be the
best way to deal with this situation. She expressed concern about using
infonnation from three years ago. She requested the residents be given sufficient
notice regarding this proposal.
Mayor Probst stated he assumed there would be modifications made to the
feasibility study originally presented. He indicated it was Council's responsibility
to maintain the infrastructure of the community and this was a logical place to
start.
.
Council Member Rem expressed concern about spending as much money as was
being recommended for the Ingerson neighborhood. She stated she did not
disagree that the infrastructure needed to be maintained. She stated just because
they had the money, did not mean it should all be spent in one area.
Council Member Aplikowski requested an alternative to the Weir situation and
also alternatives to closing Hamline A venue. She requested they look at the storm
sewer system also.
Council Member Grant stated there seemed to be a difference in the memorandum
and the item on their agenda. He asked if they were talking about the PMP project
for 2003, or where they talking about the 2003 CIP scope. He stated he was
hesitant to go back into the Ingerson neighborhood just because they had the
money at this time. He stated this would not be a good decision. In term of

Gatsby, he encouraged staff to maintain vigilant. He stated he would not support
going back into Ingerson, but he was in support of the Karth Lake proposal.
Mayor Probst asked if they abandoned the Ingerson neighborhood for next year,
what did Council Member Grant propose in its place. Council Member Grant
replied he would like the City Engineer to look into this.
Mr. Brown stated whether they had the money or not, the Ingerson neighborhood
was still the number one concern. He agreed that overlay projects were more time
sensitive, but the Ingerson neighborhood had been substantially deteriorating and
this should be the City's major priority. He indicated the Ingerson neighborhood
ranked at the top of the list, regardless of whether the money was there or not.
Council Member Larson stated if they were going to go forward with a Pavement
Management Program, then the Ingerson neighborhood should be reconstructed.
He expressed concern that every time the Council reached a consensus as to what
they were going to do, they appeared to get cold feet. He indicated they had
previously agreed on doing the neighborhood approach and not an individual street
approach and he found it frustrating that they were not taking the approach they
had previously agreed to.
Mr. Lynch stated he believed Ingerson fit the criteria the Council had previously
established for the Pavement Management Program.
Council Member Grant asked what the PCI rating in 2003 would be for the
Ingerson neighborhood. The City Engineer replied it would probably fall another 5
points, and it would be likely to continue at that rate or accelerate.
Council Member Grant asked if there were other streets in the mill and overlay.
The City Engineer replied Brighton Way and Chatham were the next candidates in
line. He stated these two streets were relatively small projects.
Council Member Aplikowski stated the Council had decided they were going to do
the neighborhood approach and since this had been identified, they should move
forward with this. She agreed with Council Member Larson that they should not
take steps backward and they should move forward and stay together as a group.
She urged the Council Members to move forward with the feasibility report on the
Ingerson neighborhood.

Council Member Larson stated he would not support this if it would be a 3-2 vote.
He stated if there was not a consensus among the Council then they should discuss
this issue further. He indicated this would send the wrong message to the
neighborhood.
.
Council Member Rem stated she would support the Ingerson neighborhood project,
but she did have reservations about it.
Council Member Grant stated clearly Ingerson was down toward the bottom of the
PCI rating. The issue for him was that there were two streets with a combined
length of 3800 feet with a PCI rating of 83 and he questioned why they were going
to tear up those streets. The City Engineer replied Tiller and Dunlap were not a
part of this project and they would not be touched.
Council Member Grant stated he did not want to do Edgewater due to connection
issues to be addressed by staff, but if they were going to do reconstruction, the
Ingerson neighborhood would make sense.
MOTION: Council Member Grant moved and Council Member Larson seconded
a motion to continue the Council meeting to 10:30 p.rn. The motion
carried unanimously (5-0).
.
MOTION: Council Member Larson moved and Council Member ApIikowski,
seconded a motion to approve the PMP Projects for the Ingerson
neighborhood and the Mill and Overlay of the Karth Lake
neighborhood.
Council Member Rem asked if they were approving the PMP or CIP.
MOTION: Council Member Larson moved to amend his motion to include the
water main utility and storm water utility recommendations as they
are a part of the Ingerson neighborhood project. Council Member
Aplikowski accepted the amendment.
The motion carried unanimously (5-0).

B. City Accountant/Treasurer Memorandum
Mr. Lynch explained the current and historical duties of the City Accountant/City
Treasurer. He recommended the Council find the position of City Treasurer was
necessary; the position was not a voluntary position and had not been since July
27, 1992; that the duties and responsibilities of City Treasurer can be performed by
one person in one position; that the duties and responsibilities of City Treasurer be
specifically denoted in the job description of City Accountant; find that both
positions have been performed by Mr. Post for the last ten (10) years; find that
both positions should continue to be performed by Mr. Post as City Accountant;
find that if Mr. Post indicated refusal to perform the duties of City Treasurer as
found necessary and as directed by Council, Mr. Post be informed that he could be
disciplined, including tennination for failure to perform his job as directed.
Mayor Probst stated he believed the reason the City had gone down this direction
was with the intent of having one person do both of those duties. He suggested the
Council agree with the first six findings in Mr. Lynch's memorandum.
Council Member Larson requested Mr. Post give Council some background on his
recommendation. He commended Mr. Post on his fine job as City
Accountant/Treasurer. He asked if this was a philosophical or financial issue. Mr.
Post replied it was a philosophical issue.
Mr. Larson asked if this was an issue that could be overcome if the Council felt it
was important to keep the positions as one. Mr. Post replied as the person
perfonning these duties he was of the opinion that these were two positions and not
one. He asked what was the reporting structure of these positions.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
MAY 28, 2002

.
Council Member Aplikowski stated the positions were combined ten years ago and
prior to that, they were separate. Mr. Post replied for 40 of the 50 years, a member
of the community trained in financial matters filled the City Treasurer, and when
the City Accountant was hired, those duties were not incorporated into the
Treasurer's position.
Council Member Aplikowski stated she believed these were two separate things
and she was struggling as to where they should go. She stated she did not know if
there was enough work for a separate Treasurer position.
Council Member Grant stated Mr. Post had performed both the Accountant and
Treasurer duties well, and from the organizational chart, it appeared these positions
were one. He stated he agreed with the first six recommendations.
Council Member Larson indicated Mr. Post should be able to express his views
directly to Council as he had in the past.
Mayor Probst stated he believed these positions were one pOSItIOn and urged .
Council to adopt the first six findings as recommended by Mr. Lynch.
Council Member Aplikowski asked what brought this up after ten years. She
asked if there was something going on that would prevent Mr. Post from coming to
the Council directly. Mr. Post replied he could not cite any individual case or
person and this was a philosophical issue.

Administrator.
Council Member Aplikowski asked what would happen with the seventh
recommendation. Mayor Probst stated if it came down to having to address the
seventh recommendation, Council would discuss that recommendation at the time.
Mr. Post replied he would perform his duties as long as he was with the City.
The motion carried (4-1). (Council Member Aplikowski).

ENCLOSURES:
Ramsey County Sheriff Report
Backl!round
Staff has received a solicitor's application from Steven Johns, representing Southwestern
Company to sell books door-to-door in Arden Hills.
Although the Ramsey County Sheriffs Office indicates no convictions, outstanding warrants, or
pending charges on Mr. Johns, further investigation by staff of surrounding cities indicate other
such representatives from Southwestern Company have been denied a solicitor's permit. The
basis for such denial has been negative resident response to this form of solicitation.
Recommendation
Staff recommends denial of a Solicitor's Permit to Steven Johns.

Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of Resolution No. 02-27 Recognizing Bobbie May Printz, Sonja

Scout Gold Award.
FACTSHEET'
ABOUT THE GIRL SCOUT GOLD AWARD
The Girl Scout Gold Award is the highest award in Girl Scouting. It has existed in its
current form since 1980. Previously, the highest award in Girl Scouting has gone by
other names including the Curved Bar, First Class, and Golden Eaglet.
To earn the Girl Scout Gold Award, a girl must complete five requirements, all of
which promote community service, personal and spiritual growth, positive values,
and leadership skills. The requirements are to:
1) Earn four interest project patches, each of which requires seven activities that cen-
ter on skill building, technology, service projects, and career exploration.
2) Earn the Career Exploration pill, which involves researching careers, resume writ-
ing, and planning a career fair or trip.
3) Earn the Senior Girl Scout Leadership Award, which requires a minimum of 30
hours of work involving use of leadership skills.
4) Design a self-development plan that requires an assessment of ability to interact
with others and prioritize values, participation for a minimum of 15 hours in a
community service project, and development of a plan to promote Girl5couting.
5) Spend a minimum of 50 hours planning and implementing a Girl Scout Gold
Award project that has a positive and lasting impact on the community.
About 3.000 Girl Scouts in the Us. earn the Girl Scout Gold Award annually. In the Girl
Scout Councii of St. Croix Vailey, 42 young women earned the award in 2000.
Girl Scout Gold Award achievements are acknowledged by many governmental.
national, and local organizations. A growing number of colleges and universities are
awarding scholarships and grants to Girl Scout Goid Award recipients. Award recipi-
ents in our council are also eligible for the St. Croix Valley Girl Scout Gold Award
Scholarship
From organizing day camps that help new immigrant children learn about America
to building "quiet places" at Girl Scout camps, the service projects designed and
implemented by Girl Scout Gold Award recipients are as varied as the girls them-
selves In the Girl Scout Council of St. Croix Valley, projects have included organizing
volunteers and supplies for a volleyball clinic at the Cheyenne River Indian
Reservation in Whitehorse, SD, and collecting donations of supplies to assemble 300
comfort kits for victims of fires and other disasters.

SUBJECT: Local Stonnwater Management Plan
In an ongoing effort to receive approval of our Local Stonnwater Management Plan, City staff
has recently met with the Rice Creek Watershed District Administrator and Engineers. As a
result, we have come up with an agreement in principle with the District for the Council's
consideration. Generally, the agreement in principle would require that we update our plan to
reflect the following:
1. Outline the City's general budgeting practice with regard to stormwater and drainage
improvements.
Presently, most stonnwater and drainage improvements are constructed in conjunction
with the City's pavement management program. In addition, we will note in the plan that
the composite index used to evaluate street projects factors in existing drainage, or lack
thereof, in the area.
2. Establish timeframes associated with the various capital improvements
Capital improvements within the Local Stonnwater Management Plan are currently
prioritized on a scale of 1 to 3. The Watershed District has asked that general time
frames be attached to specific capital improvements. While the implementation timelines
do not represent absolute timelines, they do provide a mechanism for monitoring
progress. As such, the time frames will span 3 years to allow flexibility. Timeframes for
specific projects are being assigned using the tentative 5 year PMP as a base. This effort
will be coordinated between the City Engineer and Project Engineer.
3. Complete the evaluation of existing water quality treatment for all subwatersheds in 2003
or 2004.
The estimated expense for this particular activity is $60,000. However, this information
is an element required in order to apply for a Phase II NPDES (National Pollution

Discharge Elimination System) Permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency.
This is a mandate from the federal Environmental Protection Agency as implemented by
the Milmesota Pollution Control Agency. This will also allow particular improvements
to be further prioritized by outlining the effectiveness of existing stormwatcr
management systems and practices.
As the Council may recall, the Watershed District had previously requested that all feasibility
studies be completed within two years. This would have represented an expense of
approximately $288,000. If the above elements are incorporated into the plan, District staff have
indicated they would recommend the plan for approval to the Rice Creek Watershed District
Board of Managers as early as Jlll1e 26, 2002.

Purchase of a New Cement Mixer for Operations & Maintenance
Backl!round
The City of Arden Hills does not inventory a cement mixer. Staff has previously rented a cement
mixer or performed the work by hand. Annual rental fees have been as high as $1,649.00.
Mixing cement by hand is an inefficient use of time and personnel. In addition, the quality of the
cement can vary widely.
Work Proiects
A City owned cement mixer would be used for the following projects:
. Storm water catch basins (currently fifteen (15) are under repair, with more expected)
. Water/sanitary sewer repairs, curb repair (two (2) year average is 40 per year)
. Snow plow damaged curb repair (two year average is 16 sections of curb per year)
. Miscellaneous repairs to City Parks

SUBJECT:
Future of DARE Program
As you know, the future of the DARE program through the Ramsey County Sheriff's
Department has been under discussion for the past several months. Continuation of DARE has
now reached a critical point within our contract jurisdiction group. The importance of this
decision has been triggered by the fact that the Mounds View School District will be using their
allotted levy dollars to fund a school resource officer ("SRO") instead of a DARE officer. As a
result, Arden Hills, Shoreview, and North Oaks, need to decide whether we are willing to fund
the greater share of DARE costs through our current contract. White Bear Township and Vadnais
Heights have been absorbing this cost for a few years due to a change in the White Bear Lake
School District funding.
For your information:
o The total DARE program cost is approximately $163,000.
o Revenues of$41,227 come from the school district's levy to offset this cost.
o The net cost for 2002 is approximately $122,000.
o Arden Hills net cost for 2002 is approximately $9,851.
o Arden Hills net cost for 2003 would be approximately $34,579 (this includes the loss of
police pension aid for DARE deputy and an approximate $10,000 revenue loss from the
school district levy).
o DARE revenues will drop by $25,000 due to the Mounds View School District decision.
o DARE America has stated its program is ineffective and is in the process ofrevising it.
o The DARE program in the elementary school is currently a 17 week program.
o The new elementary DARE curriculum will be a 9 week program.
o It is unlikely we will be able to get DARE in the middle schools due to the heavy demand for
other programs related to graduation standards. (Educators who support DARE state they
will not add it to their curriculum until its effectiveness is scientifically proven for the middle
schoo Is.)
o The Ramsey County Sheriff's Department strongly supports the continuation ofthis program.
o The Sheriff's Department has indicated a willingness to make up the difference in the
calendar year 2002 based on the Mounds School District decision to go to SRO.
Council needs to decide whether or not the City of Arden Hills wishes to continue to participate
in the DARE program at additional cost to the City of Arden Hills.
