DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT <br /> CDBGGrant Re-Application to acquire two properties in downtown. <br /> Staff <br />reported that Anoka County has invited applications for the 2012 funding cycle for <br />Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds. The competitive application <br />would be due in early 2012 for funding later in 2012. Staff asked whether the City <br />should apply for the acquisition of the two properties currently for sale in Block 8. An <br />application was submitted in late 2011 for this, but funding was not available. <br />Consensus was that the matter should be placed on the agenda for consideration of <br />authorizing a grant application. <br /> <br />Stormwater Management Plan. <br />Staff reported that the City is required to update its <br />Stormwater Management Plan that was done in 2004. Requirements are being <br />mandated by Rice Creed Watershed District, and it appears that the city must meet <br />their requirements. Stantec submitted a proposal for the update. The estimated cost is <br />about $10,000. Council member Fehrenbacher suggested that the City solicit <br />proposals from other engineers in order to get the lowest cost. Council member Paar <br />suggested that it maybe beneficial to accept the Stantec (formerly Bonestroo) <br />proposal as they did the first plan and are familiar with the city. Consensus was that <br />the matter should be placed on the next Council meeting agenda for a decision. <br /> <br />Personnel Policy. <br /> Administrator Larson reviewed changes that he is recommending <br />to the city personnel policy. Most changes were minor and included some that were <br />directed by council during the budget cycle. Consensus was that the policy was <br />satisfactory and should be placed on the agenda for approval. <br /> <br /> <br />The meeting was adjourned at approximately 9:35 p.m. <br /> <br />Dallas Larson, Administrator <br />
