Also present were Mark Statz of Stantec., City Attorney Kurt Glaser, Public Works Director Paul Palzer and Finance Director Mike Jeziorski. The purpose of the work session was to cover two agenda items 2014 Budget and 2013 Goals. Budget 2014. Finance Director, Mike Jeziorski reviewed a draft budget for 2014. The draft would continue bond levies at the present level but increases the General Fund levy by 3 %. Minor increases to account for inflation were included as well as 2% COLA increases for staff compensation. The budget continues the cost of the street mill and overlay program at the same rate as 2013. The Capital Improvement plan was reviewed. The Council reviewed a list of city properties in order to determine if some could be disposed of as surplus property. The following parcels were identified for possible sale: 1) 7087 20 Avenue (Old Public Works) B -1 2) 7030 20 Ave. (Commerce Drive lots) 7.5 Acres shovel -ready commercial B -1 3) 1737 Main Street - downtown redevelopment 4) 1691 -1695 Main Street — downtown redevelopment 5) Block 7 downtown redeveleopment 6) 7212 Mill Road residential lot Consensus was that the parcels should be appraised to get an idea what could be expected from the sale. The street mill and overlay program was discussed. Public Works Director Palzer reported on his recent inspection of street. He noted deterioration at a bit faster rate than expected, suggesting that some of the streets may need attention earlier than previously thought. Included in the "needs attention" list are the streets in Royal Meadows. It was hoped a year ago that, if the watermain could be directionally drilled in the rear yards, the streets could be saved and added to the mill and overlay list. Now that may not be possible. But with the grant that has been approved for directionally drilling, some of the street costs may be covered by the grant, if the city were to construct the watermain in the roadway. Much more analysis of street conditions is required, so staff will report back in about a month. Palzer reported on the work done to date to inventory ponds and measure the sedimentation that has occurred. The oldest, approximately one -third of the ponds, 1 DRAFT DRAFT DRAFT have been surveyed and documented for existing conditions. The initial results suggest that the ponds are in better shape than previously thought, and that no major expenditures would be needed in the next five years. The survey and documentation will continue over the next two years to get a complete inventory. After that, ponds will be measured for sedimentation about every three years to determine the rate they maybe filling in. Goals for 2013. Due to the late hour, the council decided to defer discussion of goals to a later meeting. The meeting was adjourned at approximately 9:20 p.m. Dallas Larson, Administrator 2 U I Y Ur ULN 1 tKVILLL 05/17/13 1238 PM Check Detail - May 22, 2013 Page 1 Check Check Date # Vender Name Comments Amount 5/22/2013 027966 BABIRACKI, MICHAEL REFUND VARIANCE REQUEST FOR SHED $250.00 5/22/2013 027966 BABIRACKI, MICHAEL REFUND DEPOSIT FOR SHED RECEIPT #9112 $300.00 5/22/2013 027966 BABIRACKI, MICHAEL REFUND OVER PYMT - ZONING PEMIT Z13 -006 15.00 Check Nbr 027966 BABIRACKI MICHAEL 5/22/2013 027967 CENTERMART REFUND DEPOSIT FOR CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT $565.00 Check Nbr 027967 CENTERMART 5/22/2013 027968 CHERYL LOCHEN REIMBURSE FOR ROTO - ROOTER - 1866 CENTER STREET 500.0 Check Nbr 027968 CHERYL LOCHEN 5/22/2013 027969 CITY OF ROSEVILLE COMPUTER EQUIPMENT 366.84 Check Nbr 027969 CITY OF ROSEVILLE 5/22/2013 027971 CITY OF ST.

The outlook is stable. The rating reflects the following credit characteristics: • Access to employment throughout the large and diverse Minneapolis -St. Paul area; • Strong -to -very strong incomes and per- capita market value; and • Historically very strong general fund reserves, supported by good management. In our view the city's moderately high debt burden and high carrying charges, in part, offset the above strengths. The city's unlimited -tax GO pledge secures the series 2013A bonds, but management plans to pay a portion of debt service from special assessments. It will use bond proceeds to finance various street improvements. Centerville (population: 3,873) is about 15 miles north of St. Paul in Anoka County. The city is primarily residential (76% of market value is residential), and residents have easy access to employment throughout the Minneapolis -St. Paul area. We consider median household effective buying income (EBI) very strong at 147% of the national average, while per- capita EBI is considered good at 108% of the national average. Collection year 2013 net tax capacity decreased 7.3% to $2.9 million compared with collection year 2012. Despite recent decreases in economic market value related to residential market declines, we still consider market value per capita strong at $74,457. Management has reported leading taxpayers and employers have been stable. While new residential growth has not returned to pre- recession levels, management has seen an uptick in new construction over the past year. Despite some decreases in net tax capacity, Centerville expects to maintain very strong reserves. It is largely property tax dependent, and these revenues accounted for 76.5% of the general fund budget in fiscal 2012 (Dec. 31). Centerville has the authority to raise both its tax rate and dollar levy, and while it has maintained a flat levy in recent years, it has also raised its rate to capture the same revenues from a reduced tax base. Management expects to perform in line with its balanced budget for fiscal 2013. Although management has not begun the fiscal 2014 budget process, it expects to adopt a balanced budget. Centerville added $63,000 to general fund reserves in fiscal 2012, increasing total fund equity to $1.21 million. Of this balance, $1.18 million was available, or a very strong 58.6% of expenditures. wWW. STANDARDANDPOORS .COM /RATINGSDIRECT MAY 14, 2013 2 1131794 1300238792 16 Summary: Centerville, Minnesota; General Obligation We consider the Centerville's financial management practices "good" under Standard & Poor's Financial Management Assessment methodology, indicating that financial management practices exist in most areas, although all may not be formalized or regularly monitored. Highlights of these practices include regular reporting of budget and investment performance to elected officials, a formal five -year capital improvement plan updated annually, and a formal policy to maintain a general fund balance at 40 % -50% of expenditures. Weaknesses include the lack of formalized long -term financial planning and a debt policy beyond state guidelines. We consider the city's overall net debt burden moderately high at 6.2% of market value but more moderate on a per- capita basis at $4,635. In addition, debt service as a percentage of governmental expenditures less capital outlay was a high 30.4% of total government expenditures less capital outlay. Although much of this debt is self - supported, it is with the use of special assessments; we do not give self - support credit for debt serviced by this revenue stream since it is similar in nature to property taxes. Amortization is above average, with 79% of debt to be retired over 10 years. The city has no future debt plans identified at this time. All qualified city employees participate in a pension plan administered by the Public Employees Retirement Association of Minnesota, a cost - sharing, multiple - employer retirement plan. The city made all employer pension contributions as required by state statute in fiscal 2012, which totaled $38,899, or 1.3% of governmental expenditures. Retirees can participate in city health insurance but cover their own costs. Outlook The stable outlook reflects our expectation that management will continue to make necessary adjustments to offset potential further decreases in taxable valuation or other revenue pressures. We do not expect the rating to change within the two -year parameter of the stable outlook because we believe the city will maintain consistently strong reserves.

Book Entry OnlySystem. The Depository Trust Company, a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, or any of its successors or its successors to its functions hereunder (the "Depository"), will act as securities depository for the Bonds, and to this end: (a) The Bonds shall be initially issued and, so long as they remain in book entry form only (the "Book Entry Only Period "), shall at all times be in the form of a separate single fully registered Bond for each maturity of the Bonds; and for purposes of complying with this requirement under Section 6, Authorized Denominations for any Bond shall be deemed to be limited during the Book Entry Only Period to the outstanding principal amount of that Bond. (b) Upon initial issuance, ownership of the Bonds shall be registered in a bond register maintained by the Registrar (as hereinafter defined) in the name of Cede & Co., as the nominee (it or any nominee of the existing or a successor Depository, the "Nominee "). (c) With respect to the Bonds, neither the City nor the Registrar shall have any responsibility or obligation to any broker, dealer, bank, or any other financial institution for which the Depository holds Bonds as securities depository, (the "Participant ") or the person for which a Participant holds an interest in the Bonds shown on the books and records of the Participant (the "Beneficial Owner "). Without limiting the immediately preceding sentence, neither the City, nor the Registrar, shall have any such responsibility or obligation with respect to (A) the accuracy of the records of the Depository, the Nominee or any Participant with respect to any ownership interest in the Bonds, or (B) the delivery to any Participant, any Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any notice with respect to the Bonds, including any notice of redemption, or (C) the payment to any Participant, any Beneficial Owner or any other person, other than the Depository, of any amount with respect to the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Bonds, or (D) the consent given or other action taken by the Depository as the Registered Holder of any Bonds (the "Holder "). For purposes of securing the vote or consent of any Holder under this Resolution, the City may, however, rely upon an omnibus proxy under which the Depository assigns its consenting or voting rights to certain Participants to whose accounts the Bonds are credited on the record date identified in a listing attached to the omnibus proxy. 3 21 (d) The City and the Registrar may treat as and deem the Depository to be the absolute owner of the Bonds for the purpose of payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds, for the purpose of giving notices of redemption and other matters with respect to the Bonds, for the purpose of obtaining any consent or other action to be taken by Holders for the purpose of registering transfers with respect to such Bonds, and for all purposes whatsoever. The Registrar, as paying agent hereunder, shall pay all principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds only to or upon the Holder or the Holders of the Bonds as shown on the Bond register, and all such payments shall be valid and effective to fully satisfy and discharge the City's obligations with respect to the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.

(h) In connection with any notice or other communication to be provided to the Holders pursuant to this Resolution by the City or the Registrar with respect to any consent or other action to be taken by Holders, the Depository shall consider the date of receipt of notice requesting such consent or other action as the record date for such consent or other action; provided, that the City or the Registrar may establish a special record date for such consent or other action. The City or the Registrar shall, to the extent possible, give the Depository notice of special record date not less than 25 calendar days in advance of such special record date to the extent possible. (i) Any successor Registrar in its written acceptance of its duties under this Resolution and any paying agency/bond registrar agreement, shall agree to take any actions necessary from time to time to comply with the requirements of the Letter of Representations. 0) In the case of a partial prepayment of a Bond, the Holder may, in lieu of surrendering the Bond for a Bond of a lesser denomination as provided in Section 6 hereof, make 4 22 a notation of the reduction in principal amount on the panel provided on the Bond stating the amount so redeemed. Section 3. Termination of Book -Entry OnlySystem Discontinuance of a particular Depository's services and termination of the book -entry only system may be effected as follows: (a) The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to the Bonds at any time by giving written notice to the City and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. The City may terminate the services of the Depository with respect to the Bonds if it determines that the Depository is no longer able to carry out its functions as securities depository or the continuation of the system of book -entry transfers through the Depository is not in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners. (b) Upon termination of the services of the Depository as provided in the preceding paragraph, and if no substitute securities depository willing to undertake the functions of the depository hereunder can be found which, in the opinion of the City, is willing and able to assume such functions upon reasonable or customary terms, or if the City determines that it is in the best interests of the City or the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds that the Beneficial Owners be able to obtain certificates for the Bonds, the Bonds shall no longer be registered as being registered in the bond register in the name of the Nominee, but may be registered in whatever name or names the Holder of the Bonds shall designate at that time, in accordance with Section 6 hereof. To the extent that the Beneficial Owners are designated as the transferee by the Holders, in accordance with Section 6 hereof, the Bonds will be delivered to the Beneficial Owners. (c) Nothing in this Section 3 shall limit or restrict the provisions of Section 6 hereof. Section 4. Redemption. 4.01. At the option of the City, Bonds maturing on or after February 1, 2021, shall each be subject to call and prior payment on February 1, 2020, or on any date thereafter at a price equal to the principal amount thereof to be redeemed plus interest accrued to the date of redemption. Redemption may be in whole or in part of the Bonds subject to prepayment. If redemption is in part, the selection of the Bonds remaining unpaid to be prepaid shall be at the discretion of the City. If only part of the Bonds having a common maturity date are called for prepayment the City will notify the Depository of the particular amount of such maturity to be prepaid. The Depository will determine by lot the amount of participant's interest in such maturity to be redeemed and each participant will then select by lot the beneficial ownership interest in such maturity to be redeemed. (To be used if term bonds are included) 4.02. Bonds maturing in the year(s) (the "Term Bonds ") are subject to mandatory redemption on February 1 in the years and principal amounts as follows: Mandatory Redemption Schedule 5 23 Term Bonds Due Term Bonds Due Redemption Redemption (February i 1 Amount (February Amount or, if less than such amount is then outstanding, an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding. The City may, at its option, to be exercised on or before the thirtieth day preceding any mandatory redemption date specified above deliver to the Registrar written notice which shall (a) specify a principal amount of Term Bonds previously redeemed (otherwise than pursuant to the above Mandatory Redemption Schedule) or purchased and cancelled by the Registrar and not theretofore applied as a credit against any redemption of Term Bonds pursuant to the above Mandatory Redemption Schedule, and (b) instruct the Registrar to apply the principal amount of such Term Bonds so delivered or previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled for credit against the principal installments to be prepaid pursuant to the Mandatory Redemption Schedule. Each such Term Bond so delivered or previously redeemed or purchased and cancelled shall be credited by the Registrar in the order directed by the Authority at succeeding and future principal installments to be prepaid pursuant to the Mandatory Redemption Schedule. The specific Term Bonds to be redeemed will be selected by lot by the Registrar. All prepayments will be at a price of par plus accrued interest. Section 5. Registration and Payment 5.01. The Bonds shall be issued only in fully registered form. The interest thereon and, upon surrender of each Bond, the principal amount thereof, is payable by check or draft issued by the Registrar described herein. 5.02. Each Bond shall be dated as of the last interest payment date preceding the date of authentication to which interest on the Bond has been paid or made available for payment, unless (i) the date of authentication is an interest payment date to which interest has been paid or made available for payment, in which case such Bond shall be dated as of the date of authentication, or (ii) the date of authentication is prior to the first Interest Payment Date, in which case such bond shall be dated as of the date of original issue. The interest on the Bonds shall be payable to the owner of record thereof as of the close of business on the fifteenth day of the month preceding the interest payment date, whether or not such day is a business day. Section 6. Registration. The City appoints Northland Trust Services, Inc., Minneapolis, Minnesota, as bond registrar and paying agent (the "Registrar "). The effect of registration and the rights and duties of the City and the Registrar with respect thereto shall be as follows: 6 24 (a) Re ister. The Registrar shall keep at its principal office a bond register in which the Registrar shall provide for the registration of ownership of the Bonds and the registration of transfers or exchanges of the Bonds. (b) Transfer of Bonds Upon surrender for transfer of the Bonds duly endorsed by the registered owner thereof or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Registrar, duly executed by the registered owner thereof or by an attorney duly authorized by the registered owner in writing, the Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, a new Bond of a like aggregate principal amount and maturity, as requested by the transferor. The Registrar may close the books for registration of any transfer after the fifteenth day of the month preceding each Interest Payment Date and until such Interest Payment Date. (c) Cancellation The Bonds surrendered upon any transfer shall be promptly canceled by the Registrar and thereafter disposed of as directed by the City. (d) Improper or Unauthorized Transfer When any Bond is presented to the Registrar for transfer, the Registrar may refuse to transfer the same until it is satisfied that the endorsement on such Bond or separate instrument of transfer is valid and genuine and the requested transfer is legally authorized. The Registrar shall incur no liability for its refusal, in good faith, to make transfers which it, in its judgment, deems improper or unauthorized. (e) Persons Deemed Owners The City and the Registrar may treat the person(s) in whose name(s) the Bonds are at any time registered in the bond register as the absolute owners of the Bonds, whether the Bonds shall be overdue or not, for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of or interest on such Bonds and for all other purposes, and all such payments so made to any such registered owners or upon the owners' order shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability of the City upon such Bonds to the extent of the sum or sums so paid. (f) Taxes, Fees and Charges For every transfer or exchange of Bonds, the Registrar may impose a charge upon the owner thereof sufficient to reimburse the Registrar for any tax, fee, or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer or exchange. (g) Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Bonds In case any Bond shall become mutilated or be lost, stolen, or destroyed, the Registrar shall deliver a new Bond of like amount, maturity dates and tenor in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of such mutilated Bond or in lieu of and in substitution for such Bond lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the payment of the reasonable expenses and charges of the Registrar in connection therewith; and, in the case of a Bond lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon filing with the Registrar of evidence satisfactory to it that such Bond was lost, stolen or destroyed, and of the ownership thereof, and upon furnishing to the Registrar of an appropriate bond or indemnity in form, substance, and amount satisfactory to it, in which both the City and the Registrar shall be named as obligees. All Bonds so surrendered to the Registrar shall be canceled by it and evidence of such cancellation shall be given to the City. If the mutilated, lost, stolen, or destroyed Bond has already matured or been 7 25 called for redemption in accordance with its terms, it shall not be necessary to issue a new Bond prior to payment. (h) Redemption In the event the Bonds are called for redemption, if applicable, notice thereof will be given by the Registrar by mailing a copy of the redemption notice by first class mail (postage prepaid) not less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the registered owner of the Bonds to be redeemed at the address shown on the registration books kept by the Registrar. Failure to give notice by publication or by mail to any registered owner, or any defect therein, will not affect the validity of any proceeding for the redemption of the Bonds. The Bonds when so called for redemption will cease to bear interest after the specified redemption date, provided that the funds for the redemption are on deposit with the Registrar at the place of payment at the time. Section 7. Execution, Authentication and Delivery The Bonds shall be prepared under the direction of the City Clerk of the City and shall be executed on behalf of the City by the manual signatures, or facsimile thereof, of its City Clerk and Mayor. In case any officer whose signature, or a facsimile of whose signature, shall appear on the Bonds shall cease to be such officer before the delivery of the Bonds, such signature or facsimile shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if such officer had remained in office until delivery. Notwithstanding such execution, the Bonds shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose or entitled to any security or benefit under this Resolution unless and until a certificate of authentication on such Bonds has been duly executed by the manual signature of an authorized representative of the Registrar. Certificates of Authentication on different Bonds need not be signed by the same representative. The executed certificate of authentication on the Bond shall be conclusive evidence that it has been authenticated and delivered under this resolution. When the Bond has been so executed and authenticated, it shall be delivered by the City Clerk or Registrar to the Purchaser thereof upon payment of the purchase price, and the Purchaser shall not be obligated to see to the application of the purchase price. Section 8. Temporary Bonds The City may elect to deliver, in lieu of printed definitive bonds, one or more typewritten temporary bonds in substantially the form set forth in Section 9, with such changes as may be necessary to reflect more than one maturity in a single temporary bond.

Funds and Accounts. There is hereby created a special fund to be designated the "General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 2013A Fund" (the "Fund ") to be administered and maintained by the City Finance Director as a bookkeeping account separate and apart from all other funds maintained in the official financial records of the City. The Fund shall be maintained in the manner herein specified until all of the Bonds and the interest thereon have been fully paid. There shall be maintained in the Fund two (2) separate accounts, to be designated the "Construction Account" and "Debt Service Account" respectively. 10.01 Construction Account To the Construction Account there shall be credited an amount of the proceeds of the Bonds necessary to pay the City's costs of issuance of the Bonds and constructing the Project. After payment of all such costs, any Bond proceeds remaining on hand in the Construction Account shall be transferred to the Debt Service Account. 10.02. Debt Service Account There shall be maintained a Debt Service Account to be designated the "Debt Service Account ". There are hereby irrevocably appropriated and pledged to, and there shall be credited to the Debt Service Account: (1) any proceeds of the Bonds not used to pay the City's costs of constructing the Project or other improvement projects or to pay the cost of issuance of the Bonds; and (2) general fund moneys and tax levy receipts in each year sufficient to pay the debt service due on the Bonds in each year; and (3) special assessment receipts and fees and charges pledged pursuant to section 11 of this Resolution. The moneys in the Debt Service Account shall be used solely to pay the principal of and interest on the Bonds until such Bonds are paid in full. No portion of the proceeds of the Bonds shall be used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments or to replace funds which were used directly or indirectly to acquire higher yielding investments, except (1) for a reasonable temporary period until such proceeds are needed for the purpose for which the Bonds were issued and (2) in addition to the above, in an amount not greater than the lesser of five percent (5 %) of the proceeds of the Bonds, or $100,000. To this effect, any proceeds of the Bonds and any sums from time to time held in the Project Account, or Debt Service Account (or any other City account which will be used to pay principal or interest to become due on the bonds payable therefrom) in excess of amounts which under then - applicable federal arbitrage regulations may be invested without regard to yield shall not be invested at a yield in excess of the applicable yield restrictions imposed by said arbitrage regulations on such investments after taking into account any applicable "temporary periods" or "minor portion" made available under the federal arbitrage regulations. Money in the fund shall not be invested in obligations or deposits issued by, guaranteed by or insured by the United States or any agency or instrumentality thereof if and to the extent that such investment would cause the Bonds to be "federally guaranteed" within the meaning of Section 149(b) of the federal Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code "). 16 34 Section 11. Assessments, Tax Levy A. The Bonds are payable in part from the proceeds of special assessments (the "Assessments ") levied or to be levied against properties benefited by the Project. The City hereby covenants and agrees that, for the payment of the cost of the Project, the City has done or will do and perform all acts and things necessary for the final and valid levy of special assessments in an amount not less than 20% of the costs of each of the improvements financed by the Bonds. It is estimated that collections of the Assessments will be as shown on Exhibit C attached hereto. In the event any such assessment shall at any time be held invalid with respect to any lot or tract of land, due to any error, defect or irregularity in any action or proceeding taken or to be taken by the City or by the City Council or by any of the officers or employees of the City, either in the making of such assessment or in the performance of any condition precedent thereto, the City hereby covenants and agrees that it will forthwith do all such further things and take all such further proceedings as shall be required by law to make such assessment a valid and binding lien upon said property. Collections of special assessments shall be deposited in the Debt Service Account or Construction Account as directed by the City Council. B. Tax Levy, Coverage Test; Cancellation of Certain Tax Levies To provide moneys for payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds there is hereby levied upon all of the taxable property in the City a direct annual ad valorem tax which shall be spread upon the tax rolls and collected with and as part of other general property taxes in the City for the years and in the amounts as follows: Year of Tax Year of Tax Levy Collection Amount See attached Exhibit C The tax levies are such that if collected in full they, together with special assessments and other revenues herein pledged for the payment of the Bonds, will produce at least five percent (5 %) in excess of the amount needed to meet when due the principal and interest payments on the Bonds. The tax levies shall be irrepealable so long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and unpaid, provided, that the City reserves the right and power to reduce the levies in the manner and to the extent permitted by Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.61, Subdivision 3. Section 12. Defeasance When all Bonds have been discharged as provided in this paragraph, all pledges, covenants and other rights granted by this Resolution to the registered holders of the Bonds shall, to the extent permitted by law, cease. The City may discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds which are due on any date by irrevocably depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full; or if any Bond should not be paid when due, it may nevertheless be discharged by depositing with the Bond Registrar a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full with interest accrued to the date of such deposit. If applicable, the City may also discharge its obligations with respect to any 17 35 prepayable Bonds called for redemption on any date when they are prepayable according to their terms, by depositing with the Bond Registrar on or before that date a sum sufficient for the payment thereof in full, provided that notice of redemption thereof has been duly given. The City may also at any time discharge its obligations with respect to any Bonds, subject to the provisions of law now or hereafter authorizing and regulating such action, by depositing irrevocably in escrow, with a suitable banking institution qualified by law as an escrow agent for this purpose, cash or securities described in Minnesota Statutes, Section 475.67, Subdivision 8, bearing interest payable at such times and at such rates and maturing on such dates as shall be required, subject to sale and/or reinvestment, to pay all amounts to become due thereon to maturity or, if notice of redemption as herein required has been duly provided for, to such earlier redemption date. Section 13. General Obligation Pledg For the prompt and full payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds as the same respectively become due, the full faith, credit and taxing powers of the City shall be and are hereby irrevocably pledged. If the balance in the Debt Service Account is ever insufficient to pay all principal and interest then due on the Bonds payable therefrom, the deficiency shall be promptly paid out of any other accounts of the City which are available for such purpose, and such other funds may be reimbursed from the Debt Service Account when a sufficient balance is available therein. Section 14. Certification of Proceedings The officers of the City are hereby authorized and directed to prepare and furnish to the purchaser of the Bonds and to Bradley & Deike, P. A., Bond Counsel, certified copies of all proceedings and records of the City, and such other affidavits, certificates, and information as may be required to show the facts relating to the legality and marketability of the Bonds as the same appear from the books and records under their custody and control or as otherwise known to them, and all such certified copies, certificates and affidavits, including any heretofore furnished, shall be deemed representations of the Issuer as to the facts recited therein. The officers of the City are also hereby authorized to execute a continuing disclosure certificate to satisfy rules of the federal Securities Exchange Commission. Section 15. Certificate of Registration The City Administrator is hereby directed to file a certified copy of this resolution with the County Auditor of Anoka County, Minnesota, together with such other information as he or she shall require, and to obtain the County Auditor's Certificate that the bonds have been entered in the County Auditor's Bond Register and that the tax levied herein has been levied as required by law. Section 16. Tax Covenants 16.01. The City covenants and agrees with the holders from time to time of the Bonds that it will not take or permit to be taken by any of its officers, employees or agents any action which would cause the interest on the Bonds to become subject to taxation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code), and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Regulations "), in effect at the time of such actions, and that it will take or cause its officers, employees or agents to take, all affirmative action within its power that may be necessary to 18 36 ensure that such interest will not become subject to taxation under the Code and applicable Regulations, as presently existing or as hereafter amended and made applicable to the Bonds. 16.02. The City will comply with requirements necessary under the Code to establish and maintain the exclusion from gross income of the interest on the Bonds under Section 103 of the Code, including, without limitation, requirements relating to temporary periods for investments, limitations on amounts invested at a yield greater than the yield on the Bonds, and the rebate of excess investment earnings to the United States if the Bonds (together with other obligations reasonably expected to be issued and outstanding at one time in this calendar year) exceeds the small- issuer exception amount of $5,000,000. 16.03. The City further covenants not to use the proceeds of the Bonds or to cause or permit them or any of them to be used, in such a manner as to cause the Bonds to be "private activity bonds" within the meaning of Section 103 and 141 through 150 of the Code. 16.04. In order to qualify the Bonds as "qualified tax - exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code, the City makes the following factual statements and representations: (a) the Bonds are not "private activity bonds" as defined in Section 141 of the Code; (b) the City hereby designates the Bonds as "qualified tax - exempt obligations" for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code; (c) the reasonably anticipated amount of tax - exempt obligations (other than private activity bonds, treating qualified 501(c)(3) bonds as not being private activity bonds) which will be issued by the City (and all subordinate entities of the City) during calendar year 2013 will not exceed $10,000,000; and (d) not more than $10,000,000 of obligations issued by the City during calendar year 2013 have been designated for purposes of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code. 16.06. The City certifies that the proceeds of the Bonds will not be used by the City to reimburse itself for any expenditure with respect to the Project which the City paid or will have paid more than 60 days prior to the issuance of the Bonds unless, with respect to such prior expenditures, the City shall have made a declaration of official intent which complies with the provisions of Section 1.150 -2 of the Regulations, except with respect to certain de minimis expenditures meeting the requirements of Section 1.150- 2(f)(1) and preliminary expenditures meeting the requirements of Section 1.150- 2(f)(2) which in the aggregate do not exceed 20% of the "issue price" of the Bonds. 16.07. The City will use its best efforts to comply with any federal procedural requirements which may apply in order to effectuate the designations made by this section. Section 17. Payment of Issuance Expenses The City will pay from the proceeds of the Bonds the costs of issuing the Bonds. 19 37 Section 18. Severability If any provision of this Resolution shall be held or deemed to be or shall, in fact, be inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all jurisdictions or in all cases because it conflicts with any provisions of any constitution or statute or rule or public policy, or for any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the provision in question inoperative or unenforceable in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision or provisions herein contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to any extent whatever. The invalidity of any one or more phrases, sentences, clauses or paragraphs in this Resolution contained shall not affect the remaining portions of this Resolution or any part thereof. Section 19.

They have several concerns related to the proposal to connect them to watermain. There were some that objected to the sunset date for connection all properties to watermain, where they have working wells. They expressed some questions for Council and we agreed to bring those to the next meeting for consideration. There is some urgency, since what the Council decides could affect their decision on whether or not to connect at this time. 1. Would the City consider changing or removing the dollar limit of repairs to a well that triggers the requirement for immediate hookup? Their argument was that the present limit of $500 makes virtually any repairs a triggering event. Also, they question why the city would care if they spend more since the sunset date applies in either way. On the negative side, the lower trigger amount will encourage connection sooner. Recommendation: I suggest that the council increase the repair amount to $1500, provided that no repair or replacement of the well casing or underground piping would be permitted. That would provide greater latitude to deal with pump, motor and electrical problems that are the typical issues. 2. Would the council consider granting a longer repayment term than the fifteen years that has been suggested? These property owners have extraordinary setbacks from the street since the homes orient toward Centerville Lake. This results in total costs to connect of $15,000 or more in many cases. On the negative side, some agreements have already been signed where a fifteen year term was provided. Recommendation: I suggest that the city allow those with a special assessment for water service exceeding $12,000 to select a 15 or 25 year term, provided the interest rate for the longer option would be 5.25% rather than 4 %. There are about ten property owners in this category that have expressed an interest in connecting and none of those agreements have been returned yet. While the city does not require special assessments to be paid on sale, the banks that provide the mortgages normally require special assessments to be paid off. Homes typically turn over every six to ten years, so increasing the term is not likely to have a significant effect on when the city is finally paid. 43 3. Would the council consider accepting payment of the connection fees, while allowing them to wait to connect? They argue that the city should accept the payment now so they can pay some of the large cost to connect, reducing the large outlay when they finally hook on to water. On the negative side, the possible increase in the connect fees provides some incentive to connect sooner rather than later. 4. Recommendation: I suggest that we continue the policy of not accepting connection fees until the property is hooked on. This makes it much cleaner to keep track of and make sure we don't have a dispute whether or not it has been paid when they finally connect.

Snow and ice melt alone replenishes lakes and streams as well as groundwater aquifers. Unfortunately, the salt applied to roads, sidewalks, and parking lots throughout the winter also washes into Minnesota waterways during this time. Once in the water, there is no way to remove the chloride, and at high concentrations, it can harm aquatic insects, fish and plant life. As a result, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is developing chloride standards for lakes. The Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) has been working to monitor chloride as well as provide winter maintenance workshops for municipalities, businesses, school districts, churches and private landowners for the past few years. A very unique partnership was spearheaded by the City of Centerville, after attending a workshop, to help incorporate recommended best management practices for winter road maintenance. The City of Centerville partnered with Lino Lakes, Hugo, Circle Pines, Lexington, and Columbus to apply for a RCWD cost -share grant in the amount of $65,000 to help offset the cost of purchasing shared anti -icing equipment and providing training for city staff on best management practices for salt application. The anti -icing equipment was used to apply liquid salt -brine to 245 miles of paved roadway in advance of winter storms — reducing the need for salt when the storms arrived. The training for plow drivers reinforced the importance of using just enough salt to maintain safe roads while minimizing the impacts of chloride on lakes and streams. The results are in and for the 2012 -2013 winter season, participating cities reduced their salt usage by a total of 528 tons (combined), a 32% reduction. This change will save participating cities money and protect our waterways from increased exposure to chloride. Long -term operation costs and program maintenance will be covered by participating cities. Money saved through more efficient salt application is expected to pay for most of these costs moving forward. This RCWD cost -share project represents the kind of creative problem - solving, partnership, and commitment that is needed to reduce the amount of chloride flowing into Minnesota lakes and streams. We would like to commend the Cities of Centerville, Lino Lakes, Hugo, Circle Pines, Lexington, and Columbus for their leadership on this important work. 58
