Michelle Wolfe, City Administrator \\i~ Discussion of Proposed "Resolution Stating the City of Arden Hills Council's Support for Neighbors United to Pass an Operating Levy in School District 621 on November 7, 2006" At the September 25 City Council meeting, Ms. Denis Fleming of Neighbors United requested that the City Council consider approval ofthe attached resolution. Council directed that this request be discussed at a Council Work Session. The Shoreview City Council adopted a similar resolution. North Oaks has not yet been asked to support a resolution. The New Brighton Council decided not to take formal action as a Council. They discussed that if individual Council members support it, then they can write a letter or voice their personal support to the School Board or Neighbors United. The Mounds View City Council was asked they did not act on it. The City Administrator informed me that they are pretty firm about not taking positions on election/political questions that do not directly involve the City_ ACTION REQUESTED By consensus Council should direct staff whether or not to place the attached resolution on the October 30 City Council meeting.

Beverly Aplikowski, Mayor September ,2006 . . ~ EN HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: October 10, 2006 Agenda Item: 2D TO: Mayor and City Council Michelle Wolfe, City Administrator b Karen Barton, Community Development Directo~ FROM: SUBJECT: Goose Removal Discussion Backoround . Canada Geese in the Metro area have grown dramatically in numbers due to abundant habitat, long life span, high reproductive rates and low mortality from hunting and predation_ They dine on the short grasses in parks, lawns and golf courses, leaving behind unwanted evidence of their presence. Over the past several years, residents have complained about geese, as well as wild turkeys, deer, and even moles destroying vegetation, fouling the area, causing property damage and even becoming aggressive at times. Discussion There are a number of ways in which to deal with unwanted wildlife; geese in particular; none of which are 100% effective, always socially acceptable, or without cost. Hunting is the most effective method of population control. However, when proposing any type of hunting within a city's limits, there are a number of associated inherent risks. Most often, hunting is left as a last-resort type of solution. The DNR has a number of non-lethal management techniques including installing barrier fences, scare-tape (Le., a shiny ribbon of red and silver mylar), energized fences, hazing (chasing them from your property), and landscaping. There are also a number of companies that provide trapping and relocation services, usually at a significant cost. The City has, at times, been asked to assist in dealing with these wildlife nuisances. . Staff Reouest Staff is requesting guidance on setting City policy relating to control and or removal of nuisance wildlife.
