1. Planning & Zoning Commission Recommendation to Adopt Ordinance Amending Chapter
90 Allowing Bee Keeping & Approving Summary fox Publication
This item was discussed at the January 12, 2Q 11 City Council meeting and suggested modifications
were forwarded to the Planning & Zoning Commission to develop a proposed ordinance. The
Commission developed the ordinance that has been placed on the agenda.
Ma or Wilharber re uested the minutes reflect that Council Member Fehrenbacher arrived at 6:38
Y 9
p.m.
� There was considerable discussion on the bee keeper gaining permission to keep bees from
abutting property owners and what if that was not possible due to personal issues between
neighbors that had nothing to do with bees. City Attorney Glaser reviewed the Minneapolis
ordinance which states permission is needed from abutting property owners unless the bees are
� �
200 from the property line. Council Member Love was comfortable without permission from
' abuttmg property owners, if as a Council, they are comfortable wrth bee keeping.

Council Meeting Minutes
February 9, 2011
Ms. Terry Johnson, 1784 Peltier Lake Drive, asked Council to consider taking into account the
property of the individual bee keeper; such as if there were wild areas between the property and
the neighbors, would it be as critical to get the neighbor's pertnission. Ci�y Attorney Glaser
referenced point 6 of the ordinance stating `the bee keeper shall maintain the hives and not be a
nuisance to the public'. This would give neighbors some input if the bees were to become a
problem.
Discussion was had as to what would be the appropriate distance from the property line. City
Engineer Statz offered wording such as not requiring abutting property owner's permission if the
hives were 200' from the property line or to some lesser distance if existing topographical features
offered a buffer zone such as; wild areas, a creek, or a forest.
City Attorney Glaser suggested tabling this item until such time additional information can be
obtained from the U of M regarding safe distances for locations of the hive(s).
Motion bv Council Member Paar, seconded bv Council Member Kin� to table this item until
the nezt Council meeting. All in favor. Modon carried unanimouslv.
2. Forest Lake Contracting Final Pay Request (Peltier Lake Drive Street & Utility
Improvements)
Item was tabled due to other negotiations.
3. Forest Lake Contracting Final Pay Request (2009 Street Improvements)
Item was tabled due to other negotiations.
4. Approve Grant Agreement w/Dept. of Natural Resources — Tree Planting Project
City Administrator Larson updated the Council on the purpose of this grant agreement. Mr. Philip
Capra has been working with the Parks & Recreation Committee on an Eagle Scout Project which
includes an inventory of Ash trees on City property to see if there was a need for diversification
and the City received a$7,200 DNR Grant far up to 22 trees of 4 or 5 species and no local match
is required, but does require that a covenant be filed restricting what can be done with the property
without approval of the State.
City Administrator Larson stated the Boy Scout Troop will be responsible for the watering until
the irrigation system is installed this spring, a map will be supplied of the planting area and all
covenants are added to the property's abstract incurring a minima.l charge.
Motion bv Committee Member Fehrenbacher. seconded bv Committee Member Love to
aaarove the Grant Agreement with the Denartment of Natural Resources regarding Tree
Planting in Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park. All in favor. Motion carried unanimouslv.

IX. ANNOUNCEMENTS/UPDATES
1. Ci Administratar Mr. Dallas Larson
tY ,
City Administrator Larson reported that the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust insures
the City for among other things, land use liability. This coverage would defend the City against
claims of improper handling of zoning requests, variances and conditional uses. The insurance has
a very high deductible which can be reduced if inembers of Council and the Planning & Zoning
Commission take on-line training offered by the League. All present agreed to take the training.
Staff will register them for training and then forward instructions.
2. Council Member King
Council Member King had been researching Smart Meter/Grid Technology and suggested
Councilmembers and the public do their own research as there are groups oppasing this
technology.
Council Member King also reported there are currently studies being completed as to the amount
of fluoride actually being needed in municipal water systems and potentially being lowered or
eliminated. Public Works Director Palzer stated that the amount is dictated by the state and the
City of Centerville follows the low end of the guidelines.
3. Council Member Fehrenbacher
Council Member Fehrenbacher updated the Council on the Police Governing Board interviewing
the 3 top candidates for the position of Police Chief.
4. Council Member Paar
Council Member Paar updated the Council on Chief Streich's report to the Fire Steering
Committee.

City Council 2010-02-09 7:40 p.m.
Minutes of Work Session
Present were Mayor Pro-tem Fehrenbacher, Council members Jeff Paar, Steve King, D
Love, and Ben Fehrenbacher. Also present were Mark Statz of Bonestroo & Assoc., City
Attorney Kurt Glaser, Finance Director Mike Jeziorski and Public Works Director Paul
Palzer.
1) Economic Development. Paul McDowell of Northern Forest Products was
present to discuss tax abatement. Mr. McDowell shared an abatement calculation
schedule that was used for planning his building project in 2000. The schedule
does not match what was implemented in the development agreement. He
believes a mistake was made in the agreement. He indicated the reason he is
coming so late to discuss this is that the abatement issue did not show up until
about 2007 and after that, he had unsuccessfully tried to resolve this with former
finance director, John Meyer. City Attorney Glaser pointed out the Council
would be under no obligation to do anything other than what is in the agreement.
The Council requested that staff do more research to determine if a mistake was
made. ,
2) Financial Update. Finance Director Mike Jeziorski presented financial reports �
indicating anticipated results for 2010 and year-to-date activity for 2011. 2010 is '
projected to end with a deficit (use of fund balance) of about $160,000. This was i
mostly anticipated as the seal coating project used funds accumulated during the '
two prior years, the skid loader purchase was moved up from 2011, and building I
permits were substantially lower than originally planned.
3) 2011 Goals. The Council reviewed a draft of possible goals for 2011.
Item I.B. Council reviewed a stafF report for pavement management planning.
The report compiled costs for street maintenance and reconstruction over the next
20 plus years. A street reconstruction project would be done in 2015, to bring the i
remaining streets up to the desired design standazd and to install watermain where I
it isn't presently available. Beginning in 2020, mill and overlay projects would be �
scheduled about every five years with advance levies generating most of the costs �,
of the projects. The resulring tax impact would be about a 4% increase in taxes in '
2012, followed by about 9% in 2013, with reZatively stable levies following that.
Engineer Mark Statz suggested that the overlay cycle of 35 years rnay be too
optimistic, rather it might be needed closer to 20 years. The possibility of
specially assessing a flat rate of about $500 per property was considered. A
predictable and manageable number may be palatable to homeowners. Council
was concerned about the large t� increases this plan would generate, even though
the levy increases would fund a program that benefits every taxpayer.
Item II.A. The Council agreed on the need to reactivate the EDA and then
identify areas where its involvement could facilitate community development.
Itern II.B. Downtown Redevelopment. Everyone agreed that the downtown
redevelopment will likely not materialize until substantial improvement is seen in
the economy. At the same time, no one wishes to abandon the goal.
5
� DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT
i Item II.C. It was suggested to add C,6 Anoka County Broadband project and
that the city should include that asset in promoting any business development
proj ect.
Item III. A, (4), The council discussed implementing an automated meter
reading system. While the system would facilitate more frequent billing, the cost
is substantial and may be difficult to justify at this time. More thought is needed
here.
Item N. A, added additional goal to provide land use training. P&Z and
Council will take the on-line training course offered by the League of Cities.
Item IV. (5), added additional goal to promote Fete des Lacs celebration by
sponsoring the annual parade.
The meeting was adjourned at approximately 10:05 p.m.

There is no applicable plan review fee for projects awarded Community Fluoridation grants."
"Due to possible future changes to recommended and/or mandatory fluoride content at Minnesota
municipal public water supplies, consideration should be given to the range of chemical feed rates
possible from any installed metering pumps. Funded pumps should have the capability to achieve optimal
fluoride content (0.9 to 1.5 mg/L) while allowing for the possible need for turn-down to a concentration
between 0.6 and 1.0 zng/L. Most pumps perform most accurately near mid-range of the stroke length and
stroke frequency and should be selected accordingly."

authority to debar and suspend vendors who seek to contract with the State.
Vendors may be suspended or debaned when it is determined, through a duly authorized hearing
process, that they have abused the public trust in a serious manner. In particular, the Federal
Government expects the State to have a process in place for determining whether a vendor has been
' suspended or debarred, and to prevent such vendors from receiving federal funds.
By signing this contract, GRANTEE certifies that it and its principals:
1. Are not presently debarred, suspended proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily

Attached is a letter received from Centennial Lakes Little League requesting use of the ball fields and

and scoreboards with no cost to the City.
Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Vice-Chairperson Grahek to
recommend City Council approve the request from Centennial Lakes Little League to use the three
baseball and softball fields and facilities located at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park for the summer
months of 2011 beginning April 1 through August 15, Monday through Friday from 4:00 p.m. until
dark with the maintenance agreement worked out with the Public Works Staff and Centennial

TO: Honorable Mayor & City Council Members
FROM: Kim Stephan
DATE: February 16, 2011
SUBJECT: YMCA Park Programs
The following motion was made at the February 5, 2011 Parks & Recreation Committee meeting:
Motion was made by Committee Member Amundsen, seconded by Committee Member Selander, to
recommend to City Council that the $1500 budgeted for Centerville Park Play Days not be
allocated to YMCA programs and to instead be made available for other City of Centerville Parks
& Recreation uses. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
Ms. Liz Guimont, Ms. Katie Lowe and Ms. Sharna Braucks were present from the Chain of Lakes YMCA
to discuss summer park programs with the committee.
Representatives from the YMCA discussed the Park Play Day Program the committee has supported the
last yeazs at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park and introduced the new Day Camp at Heritage Lab. This will
be the 2 year of Camp Heritage. It is a 12 week program with participants (ages 4 through 15) able to
attend one week or anywhere up to all 12 weeks. This program is partnered with Anoka County.
Handouts of a11 activities, transportation and registration fees were supplied to the committee, as well as a
presentation from daycampheritage.org.
The YMCA proposes eliminating Centerville Play Days and consolidating into the new Day Camp. In
2010 there were 22 children in session 1 and only 4 in session 2 of Park Play Days (15 from Centerville).
The YMCA offers a Personal Pricing Plan for families in need with $300,000 in scholarships given last
year. Of that amount $58,500 was expended for the Day Camp program. Scholarships are on a sliding
scale based on income and the number of people in the family and can pay for up to 50% of program cost.
This program is non-profit, so balance comes from other programs or memberships. It was suggested
vouchers specific for Centerville residents are possible and adding a bus stop in Centerville would benefit
residents. How to use a Centerville donation would need to be discussed further, but it was suggested if a
family qualifies, then they would get a YMCA Scholarship and the Centerville donation could be over
and above the YMCA scholarship.
Committee Member Peterson stated that it appeared to be a good program; however, Centerville does
have a very tight budget and he would prefer to see an amount smaller than $1 S00 allocated for the
YMCA Heritage Camp and a time limit after which unspent money would no longer be available for this
program. Committee Member Seeley also stated that the program sounds good; but Wargo Nature Center
has more affordable programming. Committee Member Haiden pointed out that the YMCA Scholarship
Program was still available for Centerville residents.
The following is email input from Chairperson Branch:
42
My recommendation is that we should not fund the YMCA programs either in our parks or at
Anoka County Heritage Lab as we could make better use of the $1500.
1. Parks & Recreation should not continue to fund the YMCA programs in Laurie LaMotte
Memoriad Park simply because it is not well attended. The YMCA has acknowledged the
lack of participation in their request that we use those funds for the Heritage Center Day
Camp program.
2. We should not subsidize the Heritage Center Day Camp program because it does not
benefit Centerville residents directly. This is a regional YMCA camp serving YMCA
locations across and even beyond Anoka County.
3. It has been suggested that we use the $1 S00 to undenvrite Centerville children. That would
be a better use, but I think we can find better uses for the funds. On what basis would we
underrvrite or subsidize some residenZs but not others? I don't know how we do that. Also I
am not sure that it is appropriate that we subsidize YMCA programs. The YMCA is a good
civic organization, but underwriting or subsidizing any outside organization is not a good
use of tax dollars.
4. Supporting Wargo day camps has also been proposed. This is a better use of funds as
Wargo is part of Anoka County parks. We are Anoka County residents and it would be
easier to direct those dollars to funding Centerville children. While I think this is a better
use of funds, we should keep Centerville tax dollars in Centerville.
My recommendation is that we hold the $1 SDO and ask Council to re-allocate those funds to other
park activities.

approximately 196 800 which is a 6.58% present value savings. Note - this is a net savings in that any
costs of issuance have already been considered. I

TO: Honorable Mayor & City Council Members
FROM: Kim Stephan
DATE: February 16, 2011
SUBJECT: Sand Volley Ball Court
The following motion was made at the January 5, 2011 Parks & Recreation Committee meeting for City
Council consideration:
Motion was made by Chairperson Braach, seconded by Committee Member Selander to petition
City Council to reserve the money received from Dead Broke Saddle Club Charitable Gambling
Funds with $2,500 dedicated to the future sand volleyball court at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park
and $350 as a contribution towards the 8K Run/Walk. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
City Council tabled the item regarding the Sand Volley Ball Court at the January 26, 2011 City Council
meeting requesting more information from the Parks & Recreation Committee regarding the proposal.
The following motion was made at the February 2, 2011 Parks & Recreation Committee meeting for City ,
Council consideradon:
Motion was made by Committee Member Haiden, seconded by Committee Member Amundsen to
recommend City Council approve a request for a regulation sized Sand Volleyball Court(s) to be '
constructed in Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park providing that no general funds from the City are ,
requested at tlus time. Any donations or income designated for this project are to be held in a
separate fund for this purpose. All in Favor. Motion passed unanimously.
The following is provided to City Council as backup information on this proposed project:
From the January 5, 2011 Parks & Reereation Committee Meeting Minutes:
Sand Vollevball Court � Dead Broke Saddle Club Donation $2,500 Committee Member Amundsen
passed on a discussion that he had with Mr. Paul Palzer, Public Works Director regarding using the
pleasure rink for both a sand volley ball court in the summer months and an ice rink in the winter. While
it was originally Mr. Palzer's suggestion with further research he does not think it will be possible to use
this as a dual purpose spot. Public Works will need to drive on this spot to flood and clean snow off the
pleasure rink. With 2%Z feet of sa.nd undemeath there is going to be a problem with the sand freezing and
becoming stable enough to have ice on top of it. From a maintenance standpoint it would be difficult, if
not impossible, to get the sand level prior to flooding without using a bobcat. There are all types of
variables involved with a Minnesota winter which would make this area impossible to use as a dual
purpose (such as this winter due to the early snowfall there is very little frost in the ground). This area
will have to be used for one or the other. It was suggested perhaps having the pleasure rink in the
parking lot? Ms. Stephan will forward this question to Mr. Palzer to determine its feasibility.

Dear Mr. Larson:
On behalf of the City of Centerville and the Parks & Recreation Committee we would like to thank you
for your past support of our park improvements. The committee has been researching and soliciting
estimates on installing one, possibly two, sand volleyball courts in Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park in
the fall of 2010 or possibly spring 2011. Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park is the City's sports park with
many amenities; ball fields, soccer & football fields, outdoor hockey and pleasure ice rinks, a skate
park and play structure. The committee feels this will be a perfect addition for families participating in
an activity together.
This project may be done in phases with a parking lot added at a later date, but initial estimates have
the volley ball court construction for one at approximately $9,500 with and additional $6,000 needed
for drain tile. The committee would like to request $10,000 in charitable gambling funds from your
organization. While recognizing the limitations of your funding, any amount the Dead Broke Saddle -
Club could donate towards this project would be greatly appreciated. A staged financial commitment
over a period of time would also help the committee fund and budget expenses for this project.
Thank you in advance for your consideration of the Parks & Recreation Committee's request. If you
have any questions or comments, please feel free to call me at City Hall, 651-429-3232.
Sincerely,
Mr. Dallas Larson
City Administrator

TO: Parks & Recreation Committee
FROM: Kim Stephan
DATE: November 19, 2010
SUBJECT: Sand Volley Ball Court Research
Mr. Palzer has suggested the committee consider turning the pleasure rink area into a sand voliey ball court
instead of the site originally chosen for the court. The pleasure rink is not used very much, it is close to the
picnic tables, the parking lot and the other amenities the park has to offer and it is always wet in the summer.
Two full size courts would fit in this location and there would be the option to still use the site as an ice rink if it
were designed for this purpose. This would also leave the site originally chosen open to further expand the
soccer field into a full size field which will be possible with Centennial Little League moving the fence in for
field 1.
Mr. Paul Palzer, Public Works Director supplied the committee with the following information.
VAME OF SPORTS ORGANIZATION: United States Vollevball Association, (LJSVA), 1974.
RECOMMENDED AREA: Ground space is 4000 square feet. '
SIZE AND DIMENSION: Playing court is 30' x 60' plus 6' minimum, 10' preferred, unobstructed space on all
sides.
ORIENTATION: Preferred orientation is for the long axis to be north-south.
SURFACE AND DRAINAGE: Recommended surface for intensive use is to be bituminous material or
concrete, but sand-clay or turf may be used for informal play. Drainage is to be end to end, side to side or corner
to corner at a minimum slope of 1" in 10'.
Vollevball Court Dimensions
General Specifications
Court orientation; year round play long axis northwest to southeast 22 degrees off true north. April-October
play, long axis is north to south.

Court marking are 2 inches wide.
Net is 39" wide and a minimum of 32' long
Posts should be padded up to 6'
Safety distance, 9' 10" unobstructed behind the back boundary line and on each sideline or between courts.
Sand Court Construction
Leaching pipe (perforated) for drainage under the sand is necessary with a slant of 14 degrees. Wrap the pipe
with flex wrap to keep sand from filling them. _ .
12" pea gravel #56, #57 or #2 or #3 placed over the drainage pipes (approximately 1 l0 tons).
Place landscaping fabric over the pea gravel to keep sand from filtering into it.
Washed beach, plaster, masonry, or river sand is preferred for the court sand. The best is silica sand.
Minimum sand depth is 19 1/2" (205 tons of washed sand)
Posts should be set at a slight angle outward form the court to offset the tension from the net.
For easy maintenance, place steel poles in steel sleeves for easy remaval.
Poles should be 14' long and buried 5'
Cost varies between $6,400 and $10,000 per court.

NOTE: The City of Willcox recently completed a renovation of the main park facility for the community. Part
of the renovation was the construction of a sand volleyball court. Through local contractors we actually found
"beach" sand that made the surface almost perfect. Not only did this attract the volleyball players but kids as
well for their sandbox playtime. At first it was considered as great as Grandma's Apple Pie. As the winds
picked up and the consistent activity in the court the sand began to disappear as well as make a mess through
the rest of the park. Other types of sand were hauled in to mix with the existing. Now what we have is a hard
surface that needs to be tilled up from time to time (at least once a week) to maintain it's playing ability. We
thought the use of the surface would keep it worked up enough, but this didn't happen.

6) The height of the net is 7' 11-5/8". Additional eyelets shall be installed 7.5" lower for
adjusting the net to the official women net height. In terms of court maintenance, the
important point is that the net height is measured at the center. At the sidelines, the net
may be no more than 3 /" above the regulation height.

7) The net shall be a"Professional" quality outdoor voileyball net.
8) Aircraft cables with fixed eye loops on both sides shall be used. This allows the padlocking
the net to the poles. Aircraft cable provides added security since steel cable is much more
difficult to cut down than a standard rope cable.
9) A"medium-to-fine" (0.1 mm. To 0.5 mm. diameter) sand sha(I be selected for the volleyball
court. Use the fallowing as a guideline for sand particles.
Note: Using the wrong sand and/or the lack of a drainage system are the two main
reasons that end up requiring reconstruction of the volleyball court.

10) When calculating the elevation of the sub-grade, plan for 12" of compacted sand. That �
translates to 14" of installed sand, which will settle about 2".
11) The transition from the sand area to the grass area shall be separated by treated 4" x 4"
lumber set leve! to the grass area.
12) The posts shall be of sufficient strength and rigidity to hold a line taught (e.g. appropriately
sized steel posts). Posts shall be rounded for the safety of the players.

Dear Mayors and City Council Members:
The purpose of this letter is to communicate to you the recommendation of the Police Governing
Board for the new police chief. We are recommending to you James Coan. Mr. Coan has
extensive police command experience and is currently the Chief of Police of Whitewater,
Wisconsin.
Mr. Coan was selected using an intensive evaluation process. Each of the 15 applicants was
measured against the job description and the job requirements by the cities' administrative staff
That reduced the number of applicants to seven who were scheduled for interviews and six ��
applicants continued through the interview phase. Applicants were then interviewed by a panel
of three Anoka County Police Chiefs, a panel consisting of the Lexington City Attorney,
Centerville and Circle Pines City Adnunistrators and Interim Public Safety Director Bob
Shellum. A third panel consisted of the Captain, a police officer representa.tive and a CSO, as
well as the Centennial Fire Chief.
The scoring from each of the three panels was assembled and three finalists were recommended
to the Governing Boazd who interviewed them. In addition, the final three candidates were sent
for a Leadership and Management Assessment by a forensic psychologist. An outside firm was
also hired to conduct extensive background checks on each of the candidates to make a
determination if there were any issues that would detra.ct from their ability to act as police chief
for the Centennial Lakes Police Department.
All of the interviews, background checks and Leadership and Mana.gement Assessments indicate
that Mr. Coan would do an excellent job as police chief for the Centennial Lakes Police
Department. We therefore respectfully request that you ratify our recommenda.tion of Mr. Coan
as Police C1uef, as provided for in the Joint Powers Agreement.
As background information, I have provided you a copy of Mr, Coan's resume and a copy of the
application questions answers he provided.

Ap tication Questions:
Budget
As Chief of Police for the City of Whitewater, Wisconsin, I am responsible for developing and
managing a comprehensive 3.2 million dollar budget. Our budget includes the patrol,
administration, investigative, dispatch .(a mufti jurisdictional public safety communications
center), community service, and the emergency management components of the organization.
I have experience in every facet of our budget process including planning and preparation,
presentation, analysis, expenditure review, and equipment procurement. ,
I have made every effort to be inelusive and collaborative in the construction of our budgets
and mindful of the budgetary constraints of our City. Every member of our Department, both
sworn and civilian, has the opportunity to submit ideas and recommendations (with
justifications) for our annual budget. Although 1 work very closely with my Command Staff,
Office Manager, and Finance Director in the formulation of our budget, the ultimate
responsibility for budget preparation, presentation, and monitoring are mine.
With continued loss in State shared revenues our budget process has become critical to the
future of our Department and has been one of our greatest challenges. We operate in a very
fiscally conservative environment here and e have responded by wisely managing our �
resources. At the same time, we have always prided ourselves in delivering quality, highly �,
professional, and cost-effective safety service to our community no matter what the budgetary �
constraints have been.
For example, we have civilianized certain functions within our Department, established close
working relationships and shared resources with other law enforcement agencies, utilized
interns and para-professional civilians, maximized our use of certain equipment and training,
and sought internal efficiencies; all in an efFort to keep costs down. This approach to policing,
organizational management, and budgeting have helped to make things more palatable for us
in economic hard times.
I believe that my leadership, philosophy of policing, and approach to budget management has
helped see us through some very lean budgets and on-going economic constraints. My role has
been to seek the input of my staff in constructing budgets, listening to the suggestions vf our
personnel, and developing a sense of teamwork in meeting adversity and challenge. I have
made every effort to be interactive and inclusive in making tough decisions concerning
budgetary matters.
In summary, I have been mindful of the budgetary challenges of our City while at the same time
finding ways to deliver qua(ity, cost-effective safety services to our community. No matter
81
what the budgetary constraints we remain a highly professional law enforcement agency that is
responsive to the safety concerns of our citizens. This is the philosophical approach and role
that I have taken toward budgeting and fiscal management.
Political
It is important that we maintain a positive and professiona! relationship with our elected
officials. Elected officiats provide the most direct link between citizens and city government. As
such, it is important that we keep open lines of communication with our officials so that we can
better respond to the service and safety needs of our community.
Characteristics of a healthy relationship between staff and elected officials are when we remain
respectful, responsive, positive, and professiona{. It should be a relationship of mutual support
and trust. We should also be a source of clear and accurate information on the range of safety
issues impacting or confronting our community. It is vitally important for the safety and
stability of our community that staff and elected officials remain responsive to the safety
concerns of our citizens.
My experience and education have taught me that a potice department can play an integral role
in supporting the economic and social devetopment of a community and can enhance the
quality of life of its citizens. In order to accomplish this we need to work closely with our
elected officials in the best interests of our citizens.
Cotlaboration
None of what we have accomplished could have been made possible without the dedication,
cooperation, and support of the men and women who comprise our Department. I am very
proud of our Department, our personnel, and what we have accomplished together.
Our accomplishments have been based on teamwork, vision and innovation, an emphasis on
the fundamentals, strategic planning, effective policing strategies, and close partnerships with
our community and with other law enforcement agencies.
One significant example of a very successful and on-going collaboration within our department
is our status as an accredited law enforcement agency (formerly CALEA nationally accredited
and now o�e of only 16 State accredited Police Departments in Wisconsin). Accreditation
means that our policies and practices are in accvrd with national standards. The standards
cover virtua!!y every aspect of a!aw enforcement operation including patrol operations,
property and evidence management, inspections and audits, investigations, communications,
etc. We can only maintain our accredited status if everyone in the organization abides by best
practices and by our estab(ished policies and procedures. .
82
__�
Other examples of internal coflaboratian include our success in hiring, training, and promoting
quality personnel at al! levels of the organization; the development of our sensitive crimes
investigative team; positive and professional fabor management relations; our solid
professionai repufatioti; ttie deiivery of �u�lit� s�YVi�� to bur citiz�ri�; �ii� bu�` e�fb�'s at keepirig
our community safe.
I believe that thru my leadership and management style we have provided opportunities for
cotlaboration and fostered an atrnosphere of teamwork. We have essentiaNy moved our
organization from "good to great" and together we have achieved our current level of
professionalism, reputation, and accomplishment.
Entrepreneurial
We operate in a very fiscally conservative environment. As such, we have been mindful of the
City's budgetary constraints and have sought creative ways to deliver quality safety service
whi(e reducing costs. One such example of this approach is aur Community Service Officer
(CSO) program.
Community Service Officers are uniformed, part-time, civilian para-professionals responsibie for
limited law enforcement functions. Work involves parking enforcement, animal control, traffic I
direction, recovering and processing lost/found property, park patrol, crossir�g guard duties, !
station tours, code enforcement, pick-ups and deliveries, and miscellaneous tasks as assigned. �
We have drawn CSO candidates from our University and from local Technical/Community �,
Colleges. '
1 created and developed the CSO program as a means of freeing up sworn police officers from a
tios� of titrie �on�Uming tton-policing duties which detract from their abiHty and time to perform
those activities which require higher training and technical skills, We have also had the added �
benefit of hiring full-time police officers from the ranks of our Community Service Officers. We
have the distinction of being a model for other local law enforcement agencies that have
emutated our program.
Community Service Officers are paid a nominal salary and receive no benefits because of their
part-time status. The prog�am essentially pays for itself in terms of the revenue generated
from parking enforcement. We have recognized reduced costs by not having to add or hire full-
time police officers, yet we have maintained quality service to our community.
Our Community Service Officer prog�am serves as a shining example of a creative, cost-
effective, and efficient way of delivering quaiity safety service while at the same time reducing
costs, generating revenue, improving the quality of life in our community, and providing Iocal

My leadership style foste�s a team approach to management and p�oblem solving and reflects
the development of a pos�t+ve organizational culture where peopie feei supported and proud to
be associated with the Department. I am an open, interactive, and inclusive Chief of Police. I
fiave successfutly led our Department and modeled good leadership qualities by treating people
with dignity and respect, listening, sharing in success, compfimenting and commending, setting
individual and collective goals, focusing on the fundamentals, mentoring, instiliing pride and
enthusiasm for what we stand for and for what we accomplish, setting and maintaining
standards of conduct, and influencing the direction of our organizatian.
{ manage a Department af 38 empioyees including sworn officers, dispatchers, secretarles,
para-professional community service officers, and an emergency management coordinator. I
have a great deal of experience and expertise in effectivety managing a wide variety of
persannel related issues, e.g. recruitment and hiring, promotion, labor relations, disciplinary
matters, diversity issues, commendation and recognition, employee accidents, on and off duty
injuries, prsgnancies, family and medical leaves, �tc,
I believe that you motivate people to be good leaders by empowering them to do their jobs,
commending and supporting them, listening to their input, delegating tasks while requi�ing
responsibility, providing opportunities for growth and development, making peopte feel valued,
reinforcing integrity, and sharing in the success of the organization. Our success as an
organization depends upon maintaining an atmosphere of cooperatian, trust, and mutual
respect.
At the same time, I believe in maintaining a disciplined organization whereby people are
commended for the doing the right thing and held accountable for misconduct. This approach
transcends every aspect of individual and collective performance and reflects the approach of
our entire management team.
We have been very successful in making the right things happen in our Department by hiring
the right people, providing them with the right tfaining and equipment, establishing the right
policies and procedures, and ensuring the right kind of supervision. We have also hired and
promoted people with those qua{ities and characteristics that 1 deem essential to excellence in
policing, e.g. courage, compassion, integrity, a positive attitude, sound human relations skiffs,
and a dedication to public service.
84
I make important organizational decisions based on my experience, expertise, training, and
education, and as much as possible with the input of thase who are impacted by those
decisions. Unless it is a pressing or tacticai decision that has to be made without delay, 1 try to
be inclusive and interactive so that personnel are more likely ta �upport whatever �he deeision
might be.
Because we are a smaller agency it has been relatively easy for me, depending on
circumstances, to be more personal in the way in which I communicate decisions. Sometimes i
simply talk to people directly or convey decisions to everyone through supenrisors at our staff
meetings. In other situations ! have communicated aspects of decision making by way of
articles in our Newsletter (see enclosed example), distributed drafts of management pfans or
othe� documents, developed policies and procedures, or called individual or team meetirtgs.

*I have enclosed a recent Department Newsletter as a means of illustrating some of our
accomplishments and of my approach to management and policing. Other supporting
documents, including an Annual Report and Management Plan, will be forthcoming.
