SUBJECT: Parks and Recreation Committee Recommendations
DATE: January 16, 2003
The Parks and Recreation Committee made the following recommendation for Council

The Parks & Recreation Committee, in conjunction with the City Administrator, applied
for and received a $1,000 grant from the Spring Lake Park Lions for bleachers at Laurie
LaMotte Memorial Park. The committee would like to order two sets of bleachers to
match the existing ones. The cost may exceed the amount received from the Lions, with
the balance to corne from the'Parks & Recreation Committee's Capital Fund.
Motion was made by Chairperson DeVine, seconded by Committee Member Seeley
to recommend to Council that the $1,000 grant received from the Spring Lake Park
Lions for bleachers be used to purchase two (2) sets of bleachers for Laurie LalVlotte
Memorial Park to match existing bleachers, with the total amount not to exceed
$1,400. All in Favor: Motion passed unanimously.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Kim Stephan
SUBJECT: Economic Development Committee Recommendations
DATE: January 16, 2003
The Economic Development Committee made the following recommendation for
Council consideration at their Jar 18.1> 14,2003 committee meeting.
The Economic Development Committee invited Ms. Kimberlee Wilcox from Media
Junction to discuss updating and printing the Business Directory for 2003. In 2002 EDC
ordered 1,300 copies of tbe directory. Approximately 1,200 were mailed to residents,
leaving ] 00 for new residents and hnsinesses. Ms. Wilcox prepared an estimate based
on 1,500, 1,700 and 2,000 copies. Media Junction has upgraded their equipment with a
digital printer and can now do srE~lller runs with 4 colors, opposed to the previous
directory which was done in 2 colors. This will also decrease the cost. The businesses
will not have to pay to list their business, only to run an ad. The cost for the businesses in
2002 was $50.00 per ad and generated $1,150.00 which was applied to the cost of
printing the directories. The council, commission and committee members will have to
be updated, as will the businesses. Ms. Stephan will get this information to Ms. Wilcox.
Ms. Wilcox will contact the businesses to determine if they would like to place ads in the
2003 Business Directory. The estimate for 2,000 directories was $1,600. This amount
will be reduced by the amount generated in advertising, which should be similar to 2002
making the total cost to EDC approximately $500-$600.
Motion was made by Committee Member Rehbine, seconded by Committee
IVlember Backman, to recommend to council contracting with Media Junction to
update and print 2,000 copies of the 2003 Centerville Business Directory per the
proposed estimate, with the amount not to exceed $1,600. Advertising fees
generated will be applied to the cost of the directories, with Media Junction
responsible for contacting businesses. All in Favor: Motion carried unanimously.

MEMORANDUM
DATE:
January 22,2003
TO:
Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM:
Kim Moore-Sykes, City Administrator
RE:
Waste Management Contract Discussion
............................................................................
Earlier today, the City Clerk and I met with Gary Boyum, Waste Management, to discuss
amending the current contract with Waste Management to add language about single
source recycling, should the Council approve the proposed recycling program. The
current contract is a 5-year contract that was approved in 1999 and is up for
reconsideration in 2004.
Other issues that we discussed included:
· Clean Up Days - Changing the language to reflect that the City will do
one clean up day per year, but leaving the option open to do two per year
if desired in the future.
· Charging a Fee for Clean Up Day - Mr. Boyum suggested that the City
charge disposal costs at the Clean Up Day. Currently, the City pays for all
the disposal costs associated with the Clean Up Day with funds from the
County. With these SCORE Grant funds being eliminated, the money the
City used for this recycling program will not be available.
· Appendix A - Waste Management's Sticker Program - Currently,
residents expect that their hauler will pick up items listed on Appendix A.
With a new contract, Waste Management will no longer be picking up
many of these items, but does have a sticker program whereby sofas,
appliances, etc can be picked up if they have a stick on them. These
stickers would be available at City Hall for about $5.00 and if the resident
wants an item picked up at curbside, they would purchase a sticker for
each item to be placed curbside for pick up.
· Disaster Management Group - Staff asked what program, if any, Waste
Management had in place in the event of a natural or man-made disaster
for the disposal of garbage/debris. He indicated that Waste Management
is currently dealing with this idea with a Disaster Management Group
program in which roll-offs would be available immediately for
communities that they haul for at rates established at the time of the
contract renewal and that these rates would be good for 5 years, the length
of the contract.
· Single Sort Recycling - Mr. Boyum was proposing to add an addendum to
the current contract that outlines the Single Sort Recycling program. If the
Council approves this program at tonight's Council meeting, the recycling
canisters will be delivered to the City by March 1 st and Waste
Management will work to educate the residents about the program by
April 1 st.
· Delinquent Accounts - We discussed the feasibility and possibility of the
City discontinuing certifying delinquent accounts for Waste Management.
The situation that we run into is that by State statute, everyone is required
to have garbage pick up. If Waste Management is not paid for their
services, their only recourse is to discontinue service to that property
owner. In order to continue this service, it was determined that cities
could, with the establishment of an ordinance, certify delinquent accounts
to the property taxes, much like we do with utility billings.
After much discussion, Staff and Mr. Boyum have determined a plan that
will provide for quarterly review of the accounts to determine which ones
are delinquent and to insure full disclose of pertinent information to the
appropriate person(s). All property owners with delinquent accounts will
be sent a letter from Waste Management advising them of the date and
process for certifying their delinquent account to their property taxes.
This communication will continue quarterly until the certification process
is initiated.

STAFF REPORT
DATE:
January 22,2003
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
Kim Moore-Sykes, City Administrator ~
FROM:
RE:
Garbage Hauler Debt Collection and Proposed Recycling Changes
............................................................................
BACKGROUND
On November 1, 1999, the City ofCenterville entered into a 5-year contract with Waste
Management to collect garbage as defined and agreed to in the CITY OF CENTERVILLE
RESIDENTIAL REFUSE CONTRACT. Due to questions that have been raised regarding the
appropriateness of City Staff certifying delinquent garbage accounts to the property
owner's taxes and a change in the handling the Community's recyclable materials as
proposed by the hauler, Staffwas directed by Council provide them with a copy of the
current contract. Council also had additional questions relating to these issues and asked
Staff to research them.
In response to the question regarding the handling of complaints, Staff usually addresses
any complaints immediately. Usually, complaints are easily handled by Staff and often
with only one phone call. If the issue is serious enough or the resident is seeking more
information, they are then advised to call the hauler. As Staffwe don't have ongoing
issues with residents regarding their collection of their garbage, except for delinquent
accounts.
Attached to this Staff Report is a copy of a summary of the certification activity that Staff
has performed since 200 I, when this process of dealing with delinquent accounts
commenced. The City has paid the delinquent accounts through the certifying process
but as you can see, we have not received all of the money from the delinquent accounts.
And, obviously, there are costs to the City associated with this process and $25 is
assessed to each delinquent account. Unfortunately, we were not able to separate out
what received funds is garbage related as we did not have that capability. As of the 2002
certifications, which are payable in 2003, we will be able to separate delinquent garbage
accounts from delinquent sewer and water accounts.
The City took the responsibility to deal with these delinquent accounts by the authority
granted it from City Ordinance #1. A copy of that ordinance is attached for Council's
information. It is currently being reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission for
possible revision.
Staff will have to work with Council, Waste Management and the City Attorney to
negotiate either a new contract or an addendum to the current contract to incorporate the
proposed changes to the recycling portion of the contract.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Continue working with Council, the Planning and Zoning Commission and Waste
Management to resolve the outstanding issues.

During the state mandated tobacco sales compliance cb,eck that I conducted on October
10th 2002 businesses in your city that is licensed; to sell tobacco failed the check.- I
directed an underage buyer into these businesses for the purposes of ensuring that the
businesses are taking the appropriate measures to sell their tobacco products to adults.
The business that failed the compliance check is listed below.
Tom Thumb
Kelly's Corner
1801 J.1ain St.
7098 Centerville Rd.
The employees that sold the tobacco to the underage buyer was cited for the violation
under state statue 609.685. This violation is a misdemeanor. I am advising you of the
violation since this sale to the underage buyer is also a violation of your city ordinance
number 66. Because of this, YOUIordinance lists specific civil sanctions that you can
impose on the employee and tobacco license holder for those business. Please feel free to
contact me if you have any questions regarding this matter.

I, Mr. Henry V otel and Mr. Thomas Keller applicants, agree that we are waiving the time
period requirements for the City of Centerville to act on our Special Use Permit
Application request due to the subject property owners lack of platting, subdividing and
recording of the property known as "parcel C" (see attached documentation) for the site
on which we desire to develop (self-storage facility). This waiver will allow this issue to
be brought before the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council of the City
of Centerville at a later date without us having to again pay the fee of $175 originally
paid on December 12, 2002. This waiver only applies to our original submission on
December 12, 2002 and will not be valid for any other parcel than that on record at City
Hall and the attached documentation.

Pay Equity Implementation Report
Re:
************************************************************************
Under the 1984 Local Government Pay Equity Act, the City ofCenterville must report
pay equity data to the Department of Employee Relations every third year. The attached
report shows data in place as of December 31,2002, and is due January 31,2003.
The Department of Employee Relations (DOER) will make an official determination as
to whether or not the City of Centerville is in compliance with the Local Government Pay
Equity Act. We have no way of predicting the official determination; however, initial
reports prepared with the assistance of DOER software indicate that Centerville is not in
compliance.
The health insurance benefit disparity appears to be at the root of compliance issue.
Under the terms of a collective bargaining agreement, a male-dominated job class
inadvertently receives a greater health insurance benefit than all female classes. After
performing various tests on the DOER software, we believe that equalizing the health
insurance benefit over all classes will bring our jurisdiction into compliance.

Honorable Mayor and Council Members
Mary Capra
Gateway to the City
.....................................................................................1
Background: One of the many projects brought forth by the Minnesota Design Team visit was
the building of a gateway to the City. Please find attached information the previous council
reviewed for a City sign. It was discussed using a portion of the charitable gambling funds to pay
for this project if it was approved. Mr. Bodi had agreed to provide the City and easement to place
the sign on their property and the bank agreed to provide the electricity to have it lit.
Included: Original memo to the council November 9,2001
Price listing from Openwood Studios Inc.
Colored image of the sign and release to copy design for presentation purposes
Dimensions of the sign
Memo:
Date:
November 9, 2001
To:
Honorable Mayor, Council Members, City Staff and County Bank
From:
Mary Capra
RE:
Entrance sign - Openwood Sign Inc.
The design for the city entrance sign has arrived along with the proposal for the costs.
You will find both attached to this memo. I have spoken with Dale Ganser of Openwood
Studios Inc. and he was very pleased with how the design came out and is looking
forward to hearing from the city.
I did mention to Mr. Ganser the mountains in the foreground should be removed due to
Centerville has no mountains. He stated this would not be a problem.
Mr. Ganser has requested the public works department examine the dimensions on site as
to how they will fit. I have forwarded this information on to Ken Cook. Mr. Cook
should have this information by Wednesday for our meeting.
I contacted Mr. Bodi regarding the banks opinion and hopefully can update the council
on Wednesday evening with any issues the bank may have.
Kim will be looking into the charitable gambling funds balance prior to our meeting.

TO: Honorable Mayor and Council Members
FROM: Kim Stephan
StJBJECT: Parks and Recreation Committee Recommendations
DATE: January 2, 2003
The Parks and Recreation Committee made the following recommendation for Council
consideration at their November 6, 2002 meeting. Attachment with specifics included
with this memo.
Motion was made by Committee Member Lee, seconded by Committee :Member Peil
to request council revisit the 2002 fee schedule regarding Park Dedication Fees.
This motion is based on the Parks & Recreation Committee's original motion, made
October 16, 2001 concerning park dedication and trail fees to be at the city's
discretion, not the developers. AU in Favor: 1Vlotion passed unanimously.
The Parks and Recreation Committee made the following recommendation for council
consideration at their December 4,2002 Meeting.
Fee Schedule I Park Dedication Fees
At the November 6, 2002 Parks & Recreation Committee meeting it came to the
Committee's attention that changes previously submitted for the 2002 fee schedule had
not been made. One of the issues was who determines whether land is donated in lieu of
Park Dedication Fees, the developer or the city. The committee had made a
recommendation to council to change the wording in the fee schedule to cover this area in
the fall of 2001. Committee Member Lee researched this further with the City Clerk and
the previous motion was located in archived files. There was an emergency meeting held
on October 16, 2001 to look at the fee schedule and the land dedication section of
Ordinance #8 before The Shores preliminary went before City Council for consideration.
The wording specified Park Dedication Fees were based per dwelling, not per lot and that
the trails were a separate issue. The council has been treating each development as if this
wording were included in the fee schedule and Ordinance #8, but if there were ever
questions, it is not clearly stated. For 2002 the Park Dedication Fees were set at 10% of
market value of the property or $2,000.00 per dwelling, whichever is greater. Currently
Park Dedication fees are set with the final plat and the Developer's Agreement. This
information will be presented to the new City Council to review for the 2003 fee schedule
and possible amendments to Ordinance #8. There was some concern about the current
trail policy and whether this needed to be clarified in the fee schedule. Council Member
Broussard-Vickers said the language regarding pedestrian trails does not need to be
#
included in the fee schedule or Ordinance #8 because the city is already following county
standards.
The Committee also discussed suggesting to Council that the Park Dedication Fees be
raised from $2,000 per dwelling to either $2,500 or $3,000 per dwelling. The reasoning
behind this is there is minimal land remaining to be developed and Park Dedication Fees
will no any longer be available. The Committee feels this fee can be set higher because
there is minimal land available.
Motion was made by Committee Member Lee, seconded by Chairperson DeVine to
recommend to council changing the verbiage in the 2003 Fee Schedule and
Ordinance #8 to reflect the suggested changes made by the committee as noted on
the attached copy and to increase the 2003 Park Dedication Fees from $2,000 to
$3,000 per dwelling or 10% oftbe market value, whicbever is greater.

Frances Anne Hopkins
1838-1919
An artist of rare ability and penetrating vision travelled the highways of the
voyageurs in the middle of the last century sketching as she went. It is time that
her sketches, paintings, and engravings should be brought to the attention of ail
who understand our North American wiidemess"Jheir fluid highways, and the
voyageurs whose birch bark canoes sped ovedhem in days gone by. For she,
perhaps best of all early artists, has preserved the voyageur and his habitat most
beautifully and at the same time most accurately.
The fur trade in Canada - an aggressive, expansionist, hierarchical regime -
dominated the nOiih and west until the transfer of Rupert's Land to the Dominion
of Canada in /1870. !t has been depicted as a man's world of native trappers,
canoemen, clerks, and post managers, with only recent recognition of the role of
both Native and European women in the trade. Frances Anne Hopkins, artist,
wife, and mother, captured the essence of the canoe brigades in the decade
before '1870 her European perception or the
wilderness and Manitoba.
Frar;rc~s Aluva Hopkins (1338~1919), as
photographed by William Noiman in 1863,
documented by oii, watercolour, and
sketch the last days of the fur trade in
Canada. Her narrative paintings, k.nown
round the world, chronicle with [pinpoint
accL'lracy every detail of the canoe, the
voyageur and the mgged landscape of a
vast cOlw:try which romantically appealed
to a young lady transported from England,
her birthplace, to a ilew land shortly after
marrying Edward Hopkins in 1858. [Photo,

McCord Museum of C.madian History]
Bom Frances Anne Beechy in 1838, she married Edward Hopkins in Londoll,
England, in 1858. A widower residing in Lachine, Quebec, with three children,
Edward, an employee of the Hudson's Bay Company, returned vvith his bride to
Canada, settling in the Montreal area. VVhen Frances witnessed the Grand
Canoe Reception at Lachine given by Sir George Simpson for the Prince of
\Nales in 1860, little did she know that the canoe would playa significant part in
her personal discovery of Canada. This was particularly true after she
accompanied her husband on inspection trips after he was appointed Chief
Factor in charge of the Montreal Department for the HBC in 1861.
Her canoe voyages became a window to several facets of Canadian life: the
commercial lumber and fur trades, native life, and, most importantly, the role of
the canoe. in 1869 she joined her husband on a leisurely canoe voyage from
Thunder Bay to Montreal. Her documentary approach has been celebrated
among historians, but only recently have her artistic skills been recognized and
critically acclaimed. She painted in a British topographica!landscape tradition
and was influenced by John Ruskin who upheld the virtue of painting with a
freshness of colour, boldness of conception, twth to nature, and originality of
theme.
d,.~
Art historian Robert Stacey has observed that Hopkins' vision and popularity
foreshadowed a nationalist schoo! of Canadian art. By painting Canadian
subjects vvith the !ife and vitality of experience, Frances Anne Hopkins became
"... a painter who captured 'Somethjn!~ fundamental to a place, a people, and a
way of lite that nobody had looked '30 1'",. .06'=',18," .
Hopkins rejected the Romantic Movement's lone hero.
Rather, her canvasses capture the notion of cooperation, not competition, on the
canoe voyage, where group effort V\fas necessary and vital. She also populated
the wilderness with people, 8 human element lacking in the depiction of pristine
nature by other contemporary artists. She also inserted her own authentic
experiences into a scene and its action, unlike other contemporanj women
painters in England such as Lady Elizabeth Butler, who won fame for depicting
wars she did not see. In the male world of the fur brigades, she was unique for
her participation and her rendering of images dthe past that few cared to record.
She shares with VVilliam Armstrong and Paul Kane an important role as being
among the first Canadian artists to paint the upper lakes region and the West.
Stacey argues, "Her works need to be rescued from the dusty vaults of historical
illustration, archival documentation, and sociological inquest and restored to their
proper place: the repository ofthe living imagination."
Painted in 1879, "Shooting the Rapids," a dramatic oil on
canvas, c:aptulI"es the essence of a thirtyosiJ!:-foot long freight
canoe being steered through treachero~s white water by 16
four passengers in the middle, side by side,
iFrarJces Anne Hopkins. [Photo, courtesy
The Hopkins record for posterity a realistic portrait or
the \I'lJorid-famous canoe brigades and lumber raft scenes of Canada's legendary
waterways before such canoe travel, as a primary commercial system of
transportation, succumbed to railways and before photographers replaced artists
in documenting life in the wiidenless theatre. Her images are far better known
around the world than she as an artist in her own and adopted countries.
The north, the wilderness, the canoe and the fur trade help define a greatdeai or
Canada's eariy history and are topics venerated by readers around the world,
most of whom are familiar with the authentic and stirring images painted by
Frances Anne Hopkins. An adventurous, stimulating, and creative artist, she, with
such other women artists as Emi~y Carr, Paraskeva Clark, Peggy Nicol McLeod,
Lilias Torrance NeWlon, Prudence Heward, was an imaginative interpreter of the
Canadian experience.

etis Culture & History
Louis Riel, the great Metis leader of the '1800's, defined his
people in an '1885 statement He said that the patemal
ancestors of the Nh3tis were the former employees of the
Hudson's Bay and Northwest Fur Companies, and their
maternal ancestors were Indian women of various tribes. The
French word, "Metis" is derived from the Latin participle
mixtus, which means "mixed"; "me!e"; it expresses well the
idea that is sought to be conveyed.
.;;.'i Following the anne;tation of the northwest by Canada in 1870,
the political economyoithe M$tip . destroyed. Many legal
instruments, including some treaties, the iVlanit0t8;:~\;tc: 870):;:,:.: Dominion L2'"j,0\ct
(1879), recognized Metis claims to ,A,boriginal@e;.!Jutthe fedE.~;:r' ;jo:,"X:1!bellt attempted to
"unilaterally extinguish" these claims through individual land an6 s;~,I;L23t(ip. Denied the
recognition of their collective rights by political edict aione, the Metis became Canada's
"forgotten people".
The Metis of Ontario have faced the same exclusion and denial or their inherent Aboriginal
rights. Many Metis communities were established from migration after the government's
deplorable annexation of the Metis. Other Ontario iVletis communities evolved long before
the annexation and still survive today, in areas throughout Ontario. Ontario Metis
communities have thrived and flourished from the Ottawa Valley to Sault Sie. Marie to
Kenora. The Metis have a rich and established history in the Province of Ontario. The Metis
of Rainy River signed an adhesion to Treaty Three in 1873 conferring the same rights First
f\Jations enjoyed upon the Metis. Presently, none of the promises of lands, rights, or
annuities have been fulfilled. .As well, other Metis communities across the province still have
not had their constitutionally entrenched Aboriginal rights fully recognized.
Estimates of the number of Metis in Canada vary widely, from 300,000 to 600,000. A
proposed federal enumeration of the Metis could provide a more accurate count of Canada's
Metis population. Metis account for more than 20% of Canada's Aboriginal population. It is
estimated that there are over 50,000 Metis within Ontario alone.

The Metis Flag
Recognized merely as a horizontal figure 8 by many
settlers, the Metis flag was carried by the French 'half-
breeds' with p.rid\9. Thefigure1n the-~ntr2 of a blue field

symbol, represer,ts ale immor:;,.,i;:Ykition. ,!\s the
Metis were strongly associated With lneNorth West
Company, a fur trading entity in competition with the HBC,
they orren fought for r-.iWC causes. As part of a gift giving
ceremony in 1814, NWC partner Alexander MacDonnell
presented the Metis with this flag, tiIJhich would soon
become a trademark for the nation. Today, the Metis flag
is stili used and carried as a symbol of continuity and
pride.

The Sash
Of ail the symbols associated with the Metis culture, the
sash is perhaps the most widely recognized and best
known. Wrapped about the midsection, it was used by
Voyageurs to Carrj their belongings during their
transportation duties, ,u.s the Metis took tremendous pride
in their clothing, the sash, being an attractive piece was
highly valued for its aesthetic presence, Often, a
decorative beaded pipe bag was added to the Voyageur's
outfit, being suspended from his sash. As well, it was
valued for it's practicality and versatility. It was warm in the
colder seasons and couid be used as a rope when none
was available. The art of weaving the sash was brought to
the western regions via Voyageurs who had encountered
the bright 'scarves' through contact with French
Canadians.
The finger-weaving technique used to make the sash was
firmly established in .eastern woodland Indian traditions.
The technique created tumplines, garters and other useful
household articles and items of clothing. Plant fibers were
used prior to the introduction of wool.
Wool and the sash, as an article of clothing, were
introduced to the eastern 'J\!ood!and peoples by
Europeans. The Six Nations ConrederaGY, Potawatomi,
and other I ndian nations of the area blended the tvvo

Metis A.dhesicn
The french settlers or Quebec created the A.ssomption
variation of the woven sash. Sashes, were a popular trade
item manufactured in a cottage industry in the village of
L'Assomption, Quebec. The Quebecois and the Metis of
Western Canada were their biggest customers. Sashes
were also made by local Metis artisans. Sashes of Indian
or Metis manufacture tended to be of a softer and looser
weave, frequently incorporating beads in the design.
The Metis share the sash with two other groups who also
claim it as a symbol of nationhood and cultural distinctioil.
It was wom by eastern woodland Indians as a sign of
office in the 19th century, and it was worn by French
Canadians during the Lower Canada Rebellion in 1837. It
is still considered to be an important part of traditional
dress for both these groups.

LOllis Riel
Born in SL Boniface in 1844, the French-
speaking Metis boy was sent to Montreal
cO be educated and subsequently became
an apprentice to a Quebec based lawyer.
Shortly after, louis left the city to return to
the Red River settlement and his destiny,
After the Hudson's Bay Company
surrendered Rupert's land to the
Government of Canada, the Metis were
left without representation. louis Riel
stepped in and co-founded the Provisional
Government of Red River, which 'NaS
used as a guiding body IO usher the west
into the Dominion peacefully and to asure
that the concerns of the Metis were heard.
Through his leadership, the province of
Manitoba was founded. In 1884,
answering a desperate call sent out from
his people, Riel returned to Canada and,
once again, demanded equal treatment
for the Metis. His plea was answered with
a military response and the Battle of
Batoche ensued. Still trying to guarantee
recognition and understanding of his
people and their culture, he surrendered
on May 15, 1885, continuing the battle in
court. Riel was condemned to death and
hung for High Treason by the very country'
he helped to build. He died November 16,
1885.

Gabriel Dumont
Often heralded as a brilliant stategist,
Gabriel Dumont spent much of his life as
a Metis traditionalist. He spoke 6 First
Nations languages and survived through
his skill in trapping, hunting, fishing and
farming. He was:known as 'the prince of
the prairie'. Dumont orchestrated many of
the battles of the Rebellions and was
Riel's 'right hand man'. Dumont was a
skilled hunter, a trait that carried over into
military manouvers and won him a victory
at Fish Creek. Dumont fled Canada after
the Battle of Batoche and recieved
asylum in the United States, where he
furthered the Metis cause by organizing
the southern communities.
Adjutant-General of the first
Government in Manitoba, Lepine was
instrumental in the sentencing of
Orangemari Thomas Scott. Lepine was a
staunch follower of Riel and a strong
Metis activist In 1874, he was tried and
convicted for the murder of Scott, but after
the Governor General intervened, his
sentence was lessened. Lepine was
communted to 2 years imprisonment and
lost his civil rights. It wasn't until 1915 that
these rights were restered.
Marguerite Riel
While exiled and teaching school in
Montana Riel met and married Marguerite
Bellehumeur, an American metisse. When
Riel returned to2Saskatchewan in i 885 to
help the Metis, Marguerite accompanied
him. Marguerite died just a few months
after Riel's execution.
Riel and Marguerite had two children
together both of whom died in young
adulthood.

Louis Schmidt was born in the Red River

with Riel. There, the two forged a
friendship that would cany through their
lives until Riel broke from the church.
Schmidt was a member of the 1869
Provisional Government and helped to to
draft the List of Rights, a bill that helped
form the basis of the Manitoba J!\ct.
Schmidt later testified to Riel's insanity at
his treason trial after the i 885 rebellion.

VI. A W ARDS/PRESENTATIONS/APPEARANCES
1. Mr. Garv Boyum, Waste Management
Mr. Gary Boyum indicated he was here to address the City Council concerning three
matters related to Waste Management; Request for CPI rate adjustment, Tip fee rebate
and Single Sort recycling proposal.
Page 2 of 20
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
Mr. Boyum handed out a copy of his presentation to the Council. He reviewed the
current service agreement between Waste Management and Centerville and indicated that
the contract allows for a cpr increase each year. He advised that the cpr for 2002 is 2.3
percent and reviewed the proposed increases with Council.
Mr. Boyum explained that during 2002 Anoka County has given haulers a $5 per ton
rebate on the tip fee at the waste to energy facility, which Waste Management has chosen
to pass back to the City. He reviewed the quarterly rebate amounts, indicating the total
rebate through November is $4,566.11. He believes the final 2002 rebate will be $5000
to $5200. He indicated that this could be received by check or in the form of a credit to
the City. He stated Waste Management performs a Spring Clean-up for the City and this
could be applied to that cost if they so choose.
Mr. Boyum then explained the Single Sort recycling program to the Council. He
explained that 'Single Sort' refers to commingling of all recyclables in one 64-gallon
cart, which is collected every other week. He indicated Waste Management opened a
new recyclery in January 2002 with state-of-the-art equipment used to separate 'single
sort' commodities. This facility is located at 1800 Broadway and is available to tour. He
indicated eight (8) cities totaling 56,5(;;0 homes have joined the program, with another
three (3) cities and 2;720 horncs.tostart in the 1st quarter of2003. He stated the Single
Sort program provides many ad(,-aiitages including being user-friendly - no more
separating recyclables; less wear and tear on streets due to every other week service;
proven increased participation and more pounds set out. He reviewed the increased
participation and pounds collected in Coon Rapids, a previously low area for recycling.
!
Mr. Boyum reviewed the costs for Single Sort service, indicating the carts are purchased,
delivered and maintained by Waste Management. He explained that participating in the
Single Sort program would require a rate adjustment of .25 per month and a 5-year
contract extension to offset the cart expenditure. He stated that the comments and
surveys of participating cities have been very good. He reiterated the three (3) items he
was addressing with the Council and stated tours of the new facility were available. He
also presented Council with a video they could cablecast if desired.
Council Member Capra clarified that Waste Management was looking for a contract
extension to 2009 in addition to the rate increase for participation in the Single Sort
program. Mr. Boyum concurred.
Mr. Boyum stated there were several reasons for promoting Single Sort for Waste
Management. He indicated the high worker's compensation statistics for collecting
recycling, from broken glass, slipping on ice, back injuries. He stated using the current
method with separate bins, the trucks have to dump if only one bin is full. Therefore they
are running half empty trucks at times. By putting the materials together there are less
trips to dump.

. City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
Council Member Capra stated she has no problem with Single Sort, her issue is with the
garbage in general. She indicated the Anoka dump was getting full and the question was
where to put it.
Mr. Boyum stated that Ramsey County had removed the tax on trash but were in the
process of adding it back on. He stated it would be 32 percent on residential trash and 54
percent on commercial trash. He added that with Single Sort you reduce the amount of
trash you have and therefore reduce this taxable amount. W~ ~..~
Council Member Capra asked if the trash currently goes t~laine. Mr. Boyum indicated
it did.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers stated the cost of living increase was fine, and she
had no opinion on how the City should take the rebate, however the Council had been
planning on reviewing the contract and the issues they have seen with collecting bad
debt. They have been trying to determine how this practice affects the City in real
dollars. She would like to review the information and discuss it next month. She feels
Single Sort is wonderful, however if joining the program depends on the contract, they
need more time to review it.
.;;. '~.~ " "
he understood the certification process. hilS;JJEien ~m Issue for
it with his office and discovered that CenterviHe aCCQUlltS\vere
marked with a 'Do Not Send Letter' indicator. He has asked that the indicator be
removed.
Mayor Sweeney stated he liked the Single Sort program and IS okay with the rate
mcrease.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers asked if there was an advantage one way or another
to how the rebate was received. Ms. Moore-Sykes stated the City has never received one
before. Mayor Sweeney indicated his preference would be to receive the funds, to be
used first for Spring Clean-up and any remainder being added to City funds.
Motion by Council Member Broussard Vickers. seconded by Council Member
Capra to approve the CPI rate adiustment and request the Tip fee rebate as a check
to the City and to l!ather additional information before ioininl! the Sinl!le Sort
recyclinl! prOl!ram.
Mr. Boyum indicated Waste Management was ordering carts now. He stated they have
extra staff until spring, when they typically get busier, and would prefer delivery in the
first quarter so they do not have to hire temporary help to make the deliveries.
Mayor Sweeney stated Council needs to get up to speed on the contract. Council
Member Capra indicated it could be put on the nex~ agenda.
Page 40f20

Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
Mr. Boyum reiterated he told their administration to remove the indicator about sending
letters. Council Member Broussard Vickers stated that the City still had about 50
certifications and more research was needed.
All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
2. Mr. Richard S. Carlson (C6nce?t Plans -Hunters Crossing Phase II)
Mr. Carlson stated he was asking the Council to consider his concept plan for Phase II
and Phase III of Hunters Crossing. He indicated Phase I had been developed two to three
years prior. He demonstrated that the sketch map shows 75 lots, with the road looping
around and exiting by Pheasant Marsh. He stated he plans to do the PUD in two phases,
with the first phase encompassing approximately 33 units.
Mayor Sweeney asked why this was being done with one PUD. Mr. Carlson indicated
extensive work needs to be done to the property. He stated the way the property is right
now they would need to build slab on grade housing. In order to build basements they
need to rebuild the site, including some wetland. He added it would be easier to
accomplish this in one step.
Mr. Carlson iidicatedthc> lots yvodd serve $400,000 to $500,000 homes, just as
Hunters Crossing does. He slatCQ lilt, lOts would be 80, 90 and 100 feet, adding that each
home needs to be evaluated independently for the lot. He stated a large pond on the west
of the property would handle drainage. He indicated the trail of drainage through ponds
and pipes to the lake, stating the current pipe would need to be lowered. He indicated the
City Engineer had advised there was adequate capacity for sewer.
Mayor Sweeney stated when Pheasant Marsh was completed they bypassed Mr.
Wilharber. He asked if there was any way to get sewer and water to him with this
development. Mr. Carlson stated they would look into it. He stated there is a small
frame shop on one edge of the property that is encroaching. He will work with the owner
to make sure the business can operate, and also with the pigeon coop owner.
Mr. Carlson indicated he wanted to have a split entrance with granite monuments, as in
Hunters Crossing. He stated the Hunters Crossing entrance is in City's right-of-way,
however the owners are currently maintaining it.
Council Member Capra stated the rain water ponds can also be a problem. After 1 to 2
years they become overgrown. She asked that it be looked at.
Mr. Carlson stated he had spoke with the Parks and Recreation Commission, but they
have not made a decision. He thought it sounded like they would request fees, with a
sidewalk on one side and trail that would connect to existing trails.
Council Member Lee asked how many homes would be on the market at once; Mr.
Carlson stated it was important to grade in one step, and install the ponds, etc. He stated
Page 5 of20
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
if the grading was completed in 2003 and the utilities in 2004, he thought approximately
six (6) homes in 2004, ten (10) in 2005 and 17-18 in 2006. Mr. Carlson stated that the
homes would be valued at $400,000 to $500,000 and may not sell as quickly as home
based at a moderate level.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers indicated that the main reason Mr. Carlson was here
was that the Comprehensive Plan shows development in 2006. He needs approval to
develop early. She stated she was at the Parks and Recreation Committee meeting on
Monday and they agreed, as did Planning and Zoning. Mr. Carlson is looking for
consensus that the development could move forward prior to 2006.
Council Member Capra stated she was not opposed to speed up the 2006 portion and
allow the road, but the 2011 portion, which is Phase III, is very early. stre-stated gh€

VII.,'~~:,~~lJR.LI C HEARINGS
1. Mr. Henry Votel- Special Use Permit (Mini-Storage)
Mayor Sweeney opened the public hearing at 7:20 p.m.
Mr. Henry V otel welcomed the new members of the Council. He stated he has been
working with the City staff and Planning Commission for several months to develop a
mini-storage facility in the Industrial Park. He demonstrated on a map the location in the
southeast quadrant on Fairview Avenue and east of 20th. He stated the proposal includes
4 acres to accommodate several buildings, all of which are self-storage facilities. He
indicated these are new buildings that would be rented to individuals and small
businesses that need additional storage space. He advised that most mini-storage
customers live from 5 to 8 miles of the facility.
Mr. V otel indicated he has worked with the Planning Commission on plans that fit within
the City ordinances. He stated the industrial area is an appropriate place for this type of
facility and is permitted under City ordinance. He added the engineers have checked
setbacks and sidelines for industrial use and approved. He stated all lanes within the
development will be paved, and buildings will have a concrete block exterior, using
decorative block. The roof will be metal standard seam. He indicated the development
would have an attractive front with six-foot wrought iron fence. There will be an office,
and entry will be by passcode or key guard to lift the gate. Hours of operation will be 7
am to 7 pm, Monday thru Saturday, with occasional Sunday hours depending on
Page 6 of20
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
customer need and month end. The facility would have 4 to 5 employees. He added that
with only a business office there would be no need for city water or sewer.
He advised that the doors of each unit are metal roll-up, and the walls between units
would be concrete, as would the outside and backside walls. He stated that from the front
streetscape they would utilize colored block, with some signage and the office being
visible, as well as a pylon sign and flagpole. He indicated security was addressed
through the lift gate access, with laser beam security after hours, tied into the police
department, and lighting that would go off with attempted after hours entry. He stated
the fire department had indicated sprinklers were necessary in the industrial park, and
each unit would have one. They have met with the fire Chief and discussed how to tie
into the fire department, and will have an access box for them.
He advised that all turns within the development accommodate semi-trailers. He
indicated the buildings are non-combustible, since the walls between are metal stud,
metal sheet. He stated they have had a preliminary meeting with Rice Creek Watershed
District. A pond on-site accommodates the southern one-third, however they will need a
storm water holding pond to accommodate the northern two-thirds. They would create a
second pond to aid in evaporation. He indicated that as they move through the process
\vith pjce Creek they expect that the pond size will shrink from that sh.,wn:ow. He
'&ed. thc'd,rcen space requirements in the industrial park a"!'t' J 0 percc.;:.'lJowe'/er they
i.;l.L',':'L.l) show 30 percent.
He mentioned that the larger building has drive through unit capabilities, and noted no
units face out, which aids in the containment and security of the development. He stated
they have tried to comply with all ordinances on signage, landscaping, etc. and believe
they have done that.
Mr. Tom Keller, Mr. Votel's partner, indicated they have talked about this project for 5
years, and have looked at many sites. He indicated they have decided on Community
Self-Storage for the business name, as they want to be part of the community. He
indicated he used to think self-storage units were rented by lower income individuals,
more transient in nature. He has found that isn't the case. As more ordinances prevent
storing of motorcycles, snowmobiles, etc. in yards, there is more need for the average
homeowner to use this type of facility. He feels having this close by helps clean up
neighborhoods. He stressed that security is important to them, and they have worked
with the police to determine surveillance camera needs and what needs to be done to keep
crime out. He feels the City will be proud ofthis development.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated they are asking for a Special Use Permit,
however there is a problem with the section of land in front of the road. Condemnation
proceedings were started, then stopped. The land is not currently divided. She thought
they could do a Special Use Permit subject to terms, adding that if the Council denies
now the petitioners would have to start over with their application.
Page 7 of20
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
City Attorney Hoeft indicated granting a Special Use Permit subject to terms is not an
option. There is no problem with the plan, however if the Council were to grant a Special
Use Permit conditionally, they could not use because there is no access to the property.
He understands that the developer does not want to work with the City. He stated the
problem with granting the permit is, if the developer comes forward with a plat, he could
take the City to court, and force the City to do a condemnation they don't want to do.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated there is typically a 60-day waiver signed. She
asked if this could be extended. City Attorney Hoeft indicated it could be extended to
120 days, but that may not be enough in this situation. He stated the best scenario would
be to have the petitioners sign the waiver with no time period, just waive with the
understanding the developer needs to get the plat done and do something with the land:
In that case, once the developer comes forward, the petitioner has already gone through
the process and doesn't have to go through it again. He added that the petitioner then
needs to speak with the developer to resolve.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated the Planning Commission approved, but did
not know the Council could not approve the plan.
Mayor Sweeney stated he likes the proposal, and. believes it is something the City needs.
He feels it will indeed help<clean~lp the City and would be a great addition to the
Industrial Park, however he does not want 1JL~ dIe City in a position where it could be
taken to court.
Council Member Broussard Vickers advised that if the petitioners signed the waiver as
explained it could be put on the agenda next month. If they aren't in agreement to do that
the Council needs to deny.
Mr. V otel asked if they would be waiving for 120 days. City Attorney Hoeft indicated
they would need to waive for an unspecified period of time. He indicated the public
hearing could be kept open until the next meeting. At that time if the petitioners have
decided to sign the waiver they would close the public meeting, but take no action. When
the issues with the developer are resolved, action could be taken without further public
hearings.
Mr. Votel indicated he thought the Special Use Permit was good for 12 months. He
stated they are working parallel with the developer to plat the property and they are trying
to work toward a Mayor June opening. There is a good deal of time investment and a
detailed time frame with the manufacturer of the buildings they must adhere to. He is
concerned that delaying approval will delay all of the plans.
City Attorney Hoeft indicated on behalf of the City, he could not recommend that they
approve at this time.
Mr. V otel asked if they were entering into a ground lease simultaneously with the SUP
request, if the issues would still exist. City Attorney Hoeft indicated they would, since
Page 8 of20

Council Meeting Minutes

you can not lease something that does not exist, and the piece of property they are
proposing to develop does not exist.
Mr. V otel indicated he appreciated the opportunity to come back before the Council and
stated they were talking to the developer every day. Council Member Broussard-Vickers
stated ifthey signed the waiver, they wouldn't have to come back again.
Mr. Keller stated they were trying to encourage the developer to move forward,
indicating they are standing by with cash. He reiterated that if the timeline was pushed
too far it may not be as good of an investment for them. Mr. V otel asked what the
Council recommended. City Attorney Hoeft stated they could not recommend. He
reiterated that if the petitioners waived for an unspecified period of time, the request
would stand by tabled.
Council Member Capra stated her only issue was with the sign. She asked for
clarification of the size and lighting, Mr. V otel indicated they had that question from the
Planning Commission as well. It would go out mid-evening, when the facility closed.
He stated it would be light sensitive so it would only be glowing during the darker hours
of operation.

VIII. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
There was none.
IX. NEW BUSINESS
8. Slaughter House/Butcher Shop - Mr. Noo Yang
Mr. So Yang indicated he was present to represent his brother, Mr. Noo Yang. He stated
Mr. Noo Yang could not be present as he is currently serving in the Army. He stated his
brother desired to move forward with his request.
Mayor Sweeney stated he has the information from the packet but is not aware of what
discussions have taken place.
City Attorney Hoeft stated that prior Council had taken no action, and had asked him to
research what options the City had. He first looked at zoning for the property. He found
that there'is no zone within Centerville that accommodates this request. This doesn't
mean that they are precluded, just that there is currently no zone. Option one would be
for the City to decide what zone they would amend or to create a new zone, which is a
Page 9 of20
\
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
long process. Option two is to find the closest zoning match and issue a Special Use
Permit. He stated the prior Council didn't know what issues were involved in the
operation of a slaughterhouse, above the normal issues such as traffic, lighting, noise, etc.
He stated they had asked that he prepare a moratorium for the City to study the
slaughterhouse business and determine if it takes place, where it should take place. He
has provided a packet addressing this. He indicated a moratorium prevents a
slaughterhouse from operating until the study is completed, then the Council decides. He
stated an original moratorium is twelve months, and can be extended an additional
eighteen months, although he doesn't believe the issue would take 2 12 years to research.
He encourages the Council to take the 12 months, noting they can decide sooner if they
choose.
Council Member Paar asked what the cost was to the City. City Attorney Hoeft stated
they do not need to hire a consultant, so the only cost was minimal attorney time and
Staff time.
Council Member Capra indicated she had phoned an acquaintance in City Planning for
the City of St. Paul. She suggested hiring a consultant to review and include the entire
community and industrial areas. She thought the City of Lake Elmo had completed some
type of study. She. added that thee _y of St. Paul does a 12-month moratorium with two
6-month extensions.
Council Member Broussard Vickers recommended putting this back on the agenda for
two months, and letting staff try. At that time they can let Council know how they are
doing before hiring a consultant. They can tell where they are lacking and need
additional help. She added there are environmental issues and other operating issues that
the Council needs to learn.
City Attorney Hoeft indicated most moratoriums are used for adult uses. When studies
are done through a consultant, the court typically allows other cities to use them. He
thought this would be the same, and if Lake Elmo has done a study, the City would not
need to start over.
Council Member Capra asked Mr. Vang if it was true his brother was also interested in a
Community Center use. Mr. Vang stated he had suggested a dance club or something
else if the slaughterhouse was not permitted.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers directed staff to prepare an interim ordinance
regarding a moratorium on slaughterhouselbutcher shop operations in any district within
the City until further research is completed in regards to health, safety and welfare of the
community and its residents. She requested that Mr. Vang be notified when this item
was to again be discussed by Council.

City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
Mr. Palzer explained to Council that the state is implementing a new version of their
building code. They will be asking cities to adopt their fee schedule. The new code
should pass in February and the fee schedule will be presented to Council in March or
April to adopt.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers confirmed that Centerville would maintain their
current fee schedule in the interim. City Attorney Hoeft indicated that would be
appropriate given the small timeframe.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers asked if they would need to have an ordinance
change. Mr. Palzer indicated they would try to do a five-year plan to avoid having
ordinance changes frequently.
Council Member Capra explained that last year the Council had agreed to a 25 percent
increase to try to ease the transition to the new fee schedule. Mr. Palzer indicated the
City was using the 1997 code and determined the new fees would be approximately 40
percent higher. The 25 percent increase was meant as a step increase to reach the new
fees.
Council Member Capra ind icateUJhat the. Dity received complaints after implementing
this increase that they were higherthai1'sttrlotmding cities. The Council asked for a study
to make sure they were average.
Mayor Sweeney asked if they could receive a breakdown of each fee. Council Member
Capra indicated that was available.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers asked if a public hearing was necessary at the time
of adoption. Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated it is.

Council Member Capra asked about information the former Council had requested
concerning alternative audit firms.
Ms. Paulseth stated that she and Ms. Moore-Sykes had done some research on
alternatives but felt it was a little late in the year to make a change. She has been
working with Eick & Meyer for quite some time and would hate to change this .year.

Council Member Capra explained they had many problems with the firm..in the past.
Mayor Sweeney stated the information he has says they'd give feedback if they found
something but were not looking for problems. Council Member Broussard-Vickers
indicated the previous Council felt they gave a qualified opinion.
Mr. Paulseth stated she felt they didn't have a choice. She indicated she was comfortable
with the firm, however she wouldn't have a problem switching, just not this late in the
game. Mayor Sweeney agreed that he doesn't feel comfortable recommending a change
now.
Ms. Moore-Sykes stated that if after this year Council doesn't feel they are appropriate or
adequate the research is there to move forward with bids. Ms. Paulseth added that they
have not yet resolved the TIF issue and to release the company now would not be in the
best interest of the City.

Council Member Broussard-Vickers indicated she had asked Mr. Palzer to make a list of
the top items that needed to be done from the maintenance budget so the Park and
Recreation Committee could plan their budget. She is bringing this before the Council
because she is asking for staff time to accomplish this.
Mayor Sweeney stated that when he was previously on Council they worked to get funds
for the parks. He knows the park department struggles with getting land because they
don't have money from the City. He would like to direct staff to look at the budget and
provide information to the Council on providing money to the Park and Recreation
Committee. He stated they previously gave them $50,000 to be put in an enterprise fund.
Council Member Broussard-Vickers stated the Council could not authorize the

4. Pay Equity Report - Compensation Study
Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated the report has been completed, and a copy will be included in
the Council packet for next meeting. She indicated that she and Ms. Paulseth feel the
City will be found out of compliance for staff She explained that this report is submitted
to the state every three years, giving a snapshot on 12/31. She stated the reason for the
non-compliance is that most unionized employees are male while non-unionized are
female, and there is still a difference in how they are being treated. She added that there
is still time to get into compliance.
Council Member Lee asked what the ramification was for being found out of compliance.
Ms. Moore-Sykes stated the City could be fined. She added that it is not unusual to be
found out of compliance, the important thing is taking steps to become in compliance.
3. Pending Issues
Mayor Sweeney stated he would like City staff to look at the pay structure for the City
Council. He would like to see an extra amount granted for workshops. He stated he was
involved in installing the current pay strupture when he was previously on Council and
feels it is time to .
Council Member Broussard- Vickers.aske.ddfthecurrent structure could be compared to
other cities, then have Council review. Ms. Moore-Sykes stated there are several
comparison studies she can consult.
Council Member Capra indicated a resident from Eagle Pass had come in a few days ago
distraught about a situation at a building site. She stated she went with him to the site,
then returned to City Hall and brought Mr. Palzer back with them to look at the situation,
which involved debris on the street. They resolved to contact the developer and give him
24 hours to clean up the area. Mr. Palzer added that as of noon it had not been cleaned.
Council Member Capra recommended another call be made to the developer. Council
MemberBroussard-Vickers felt a stronger position should be taken. City Attorney Hoeft
indicated the City has the authority to have someone corne out and bill the developer.
Motion by Council Member Broussard Vickers, seconded by Council Member
Capra to direct staff to have area in question cleaned and billed to developer due to
his lack of response. All aves. Motion carried unanimously.
Mayor Sweeney indicated he had spoken with Ms. Moore-Sykes about the structure of
management. He stated that currently the Council has the authority to hire or fire. He
wants to change that so the Council acts more as a Board of Directors and works through
Ms. Moore-Sykes, who would handle staff situations.

Council Meeting Minutes

Council Member Capra indicated the Mayor is suggesting Centerville have a City
Manager, rather than City Administrator. Mayor Sweeney indicated he was not, just
proposing a different structure.
Council Member Capra stated not even Lino Lakes, which is much larger than
Centerville, has a City Manager. Mayor Sweeney stated he was not concerned with how
Lino Lakes operated, but he desired this change to be on a referendum to be voted on by
the residents.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if more information on the type of structure
being proposed was available. Ms. Moore-Sykes concurred.
Council Member Lee stated that he does not see the need for this change since everyone
is a grown-up and should be able to take criticism. Mayor Sweeney stated he desired to
review a City Manager form of government.
Council Member Capra stated it would take an enormous amount of power away from the
City Council and would create a position of City Manager that would be paid more than
the current City Administrator's position.

NEW BUSINESS (cont.)
1. Discuss Goals and Objectives
Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated the staff had put together their thoughts on strategic planning
and goal setting. Mayor Sweeney advised he is not looking for lengthy discussion at this
time, just Council's thoughts.
Mayor Sweeney indicated his thoughts for the main issues the Council should focus on
are:
· Water tower - during summer use it is sometimes emptied 10 times a day
. Road issues, road repair
· County Road 14 plan, ensuring it progresses with Centerville's interests in
mind.
· Drainage ponds (Mf. Palzer has been working on the water plan. All have
been surveyed and the plan is almost ready to be adopted.)
· Culverts (This relates to the road issues as well. Some have been redone
many times.)
· State budget cuts (It was noted state aid for 2003 will be $5,000, versus the
$9,000 received in 2002.)
. Parks
· Building design plans for new commercial buildings
Council Member Capra indicated she had attended a workshop with Ms. Moore-Sykes
addressing renovation of different districts. She felt it was very beneficial and is anxious
to share what they learned.
Page 17 of20

Council Meeting Minutes

She asked how far along the meter reading project was. Ms. Moore-Sykes states training
has taken place. Mr. Palzer indicated there are at least five on-line, more will be added
soon.
Council Member Capra stated she liked the list staff had put together, and added
additional areas of focus should be:
· Street issues - this had been important for the previous Council.
Council Member Capra indicated they had wanted to do a street repair fund much like the
water tower fund. She stated the County Road 14 plans for 2006 would require some
Centerville funds. Council Member Broussard-Vickers stated that may not take place in
2006.
Council Member Capra stated that she has been told MN-DOT will be more
accommodating if a City has a plan rather than those cities that just say they do not want
t9 be inY91Vf~cL -h::> ~ r~
· A fourpagenewsletL,,;.r to residents.
· Look at a fo.lding<rrnchine for utility bills, which are currently handled by; ,
staff. Would saVeO'rl man-hours.
Council Member Lee stated his areas of focus would be:
· County Road 14 - City needs to have a plan.
. Water tower
Council Member Capra stated Centerville had an agreement with Lino Lakes to build a
new water tower by 2005 or 2006. Mr. Palzer stated that along with the water tower they
would need to redevelop or re-drill a new well.
Council Member Capra stated that the city purchased the current water tower used and
there may be another opportunity to do.
. Parks and Recreation
Council Member Lee stated he feels the need for a community center is great. The
children in the community are getting older and they need guidance. He added that
growing up the community center in his area was the safe haven, where everyone could
play constructively. He indicated it is very cost effective when you consider police hours
and bored teenagers. He thought the Lion's had money available.
. Dredging ponds
.. Trail completions, finishing the loop
Page 18 of20
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
January 8, 2003
Council Member Capra stated that Mr. LaBlanc had spoken with Father Fitzgerald and he
had suggested running the trail by the lake.
Council Member Paar stated that his areas of focus would be:
. Water tower
. County Road 14
. Dredging ponds
. Community Center
. Anchor Business
Council Member Paar stated that he has a two-year old son and they frequently use the
Shoreview Community Center. It has a pool, racquetball facilities, meeting rooms, etc.
and he feels the City could benefit greatly from a similar facility. He thought the City
could also benefit from an anchor store such as Cub or Econofoods, adding additional
conveniences such as a pharmacy. He stated that being seen from 35 would be beneficial
and the County Road 14 project would help. He feels the area needs this type of retail
development rather than having everyone go to Forest Lake. He felt this would tie in
smoothly with a Community Center and help the tax base. He stated he was glad he had
been named liaison \vith lhe;'f~DC sc'he 'can help facilitate some of these things.
Mayor Sweeney stated this would'happen when the EDC was holding more consistent
meetings. He noted Lino Lakes has the freeway comer and they may need to work with
them.
Ms. Moore-Sykes stated that 21st Avenue is on the goal list for next year. Council
Member Capra stated that when she spoke with Mr. Fisher of Anoka County, he stated
that even though County Road 14 is a large project, 20th Avenue redevelopment is larger.
She added Columbus Township is doing massive expansion and stated 21st Avenue is not
on the books yet.
Council Member Lee asked if an update on the historic area could be included on the next
agenda.
Council Member Capra stated that they had received approval to send an additional letter
to 25 people asking for information. She indicated that they have a postcard to send
back, and could track to do follow up with those that don't respond. She stated they have
the ability to define the area and have contributors and non-contributors within the
defined area. Non-contributors wouldn't have to comply with all of the restrictions of the
area. She stated they are concerned with the health and welfare of the citizens, noting
some homeowners, even if they received market value, would have a hard time finding
another home in Centerville.
Ms. Moore-Sykes i~dicated she would provide the Top 10 goals at the next meeting for
the Council to rate.

Council Member Travis indicated he did an evaluation form but did not know he was to
turn it in. He then said that these three people (Nelson, Swedberg and Capra) are the
biggest asset that the city has right now and probable the hardest three people in the city
to please. He said he didn't know that it is necessarily criticism as much as this is the
way these council members do it. He said these three maybe perfectionists, but he is not.
He said he sees council member Broussard-Vickers as being a realist and hope that keeps
Ms. Moore-Sykes moving forward. He said he believes Ms. Moore-Sykes is doing a very
good job. He further commented that he looks forward to working with Ms. Moore-
Sykes in the future.

Council Meeting Minutes
December 19, 2002
Council Member Nelson indicated that she does not feel that Ms. Moore-Sykes is using
her gifts to the greatest capacity so she is happy that the resolution passed to approve the
new organization. She then said that it is her goal in both of the reviews to try and
evaluate from what she sees and try to evaluate what can be done for the best of the City
Administrator and the City.
Council Member Nelson said she never thought in her mind of any terminating but of
what could be done to make this work better.
Council Member Capra indicated she had provided an evaluation form and she is a little
upset that it left the office as it is supposed to stay at the office. She then said that her
main issue is follow up or follow through because she feels the City Administrator is
ultimately responsible and needs to make sure that Council directives take place.
Council Member Capra asked for an answer or solution for the follow through issue as
she did not feel the response read addressed it.
Council Member Capra commented that there are errors with posting and indicated that if
she had not called to remind the City Clerk to post a recent meeting that it would not have
been done. Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated the City Clerk posted the referred posting on
Monday, which was within the three-day timeframe.
Motion bv Council Member Capra, seconded bv Council Member Travis to approve
a two percent (2%) step increase retroactive to October with a review date set for
three months.
Council Member Travis indicated he did an evaluation form but did not know he was to
turn it in. He then said that the three people on Council are an asset to the community,
but are the hardest people to please and Ms. Moore-Sykes has done a very good job. He
further commented that he looks forward to working with Ms. Moore-Sykes in the future.
Council Member Broussard Vickers reiterated her comments from the last evaluation and
said she feels Ms. Moore-Sykes has done an outstanding job this last year and, if she had
to guess, she would say it was the toughest year as an employee anywhere due to the
number of things confronting the City and the seriousness of the issues. She then said
she is not as concerned with follow up based on the numerous items being thrown at the
City Administrator because she feels the City Administrator will prioritize the items and
they will get done in time.
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated she is extremely happy with the choice
made a year ago to hire Ms. Moore-Sykes and does not feel anyone could have done a
better job assisting the City with the many issues over the last year. She further
commented that she feels Ms. Moore-Sykes deserves the full step increase at this time
and sees no reason to wait for three months and withhold the other two percent (2%).

RE:
Council- Manager Form of Government
............................................................................
BACKGROUND
Attached to this memo are various pieces of information that I got from the ICMA
(International City/County Managers Association) website regarding the council-
manager form of local government, ICMA is an organization that promotes municipal
and county government and of which many local governments are members and is listed
as a link at the League of Minnesota Cities website,
Also included is statutory information that Councilmember Capra found regarding the
various governing plans available to communities in Minnesota and how they can be
adopted. Other information that she includes also suggests that fewer cities in Minnesota
have council- manager (plan B in Minnesota) form of government but as she also notes,
Home Rule Charter cities have adopted the Plan B local government structure as welL
In searching the League of Minnesota Cities web site, I found additional information that
compares both positions of city administrator and city manager. In the LMC' s Handbook
on City Administration, (the city administrator and city manager portions are copied and
attached for your information). As you will read, the duties of both positions are
basically the same, with the exception that the city manager has the responsibility to hire
and fire staff, and the powers of the city council, again with the exception of hiring and
firing personnel, remains in tact. Page 19 of the Handbook states, "The city
administrator position is not required, nor even mentioned in [the] state statute.",
whereas, the Minnesota Statutes are quite descriptive of what the responsibilities are for
city managers (pages 23 and 24). The Handbook goes on to state that the council-
manager form oflocal governance was established in the early 1900's (page 23). In the
attached article from City/County Management magazine, the exact date and city given:
"In 1908, Staunton, VA, became the first U.S, city to institute City Manager position."
You will also note that the information indicates that to change to council - manager
government occasionally requires only the adoption of a resolution or ordinance. In
Minnesota, that is not the case. As you will read in the statutes that Councilmember
.,
Capra provided, this que$tion is required to be placed on the ballot for voter
consideration. This means that realistically, the soonest this matter could be decided
would be in two years at the next election.

CITY/COUNTY
MANAGEMENT
'May I speak
with the manager ?'
Councils, commissions, citizens and neighboring communities
place diverse demands on city and county managers,
redefining the administrator's role.
By Beth Wade, Managing Editor
r.,' n 1908, Staunton, Va., became tbe
first u.s. city to institute the City
. Manager position. By ordinance,
the manager was charged with over-
seeing the day-to-day business of the
city, preparing and administering the
budget, and managing personnel.
In those respects, the job remains
the same; today's city and county
lnanagers are their communities' chief
executives, they are responsible for
local budgets, and they retain the
power to hire and fire personnel.
However, 90 years of change have
redefined the manager's role in ways
that many had not envisioned 10 or
20 years ago.
"In the past, local government was
in the business of building infrastruc-
ture to serve a booming industrialized
country, and managers were chief
administrative officers who ensured
that the job was completed," states a
1995 report from the International
City/County Management Associa-
tion, Washington, D.C. "There were
more resources and fewer demands; ...
there were fewer federal and state
mandates sapping local resources.
Roles were more sharply defined
throughout society, and, in local gov-
ernment, the council and the manager
'knew their places.'"
Today, local govemment managers
retain their administrative duties, but
their jobs have moved beyond that
"traditional" role. Populations are
changing, economic bases are shifting,
infrastructure is aging, and there is a
modern emphasis on environment
and quality oflife. hl an effort to keep
up with and stay ahead of the
changes, city and county managers
not only are administering policy and
budgets, they are expanding their
roles in policy-making and reshaping
internal and external relationships.
EXTERNAL EXPERTISE
City and county managers increas-
ingly are asked to cross boundaries
that once separated them from coun-
cils, commissions and neighboring
communities. "Managers are becom-
ing more involved in policy develop-
ment than they were in earlier years,"
says Bruce Romer, chief administra-

Romer began
his public serv- -
ice career 32 years ago and has served
as city manager for Rockville, Md.;
Davenport, Iowa; Sidney, Ohio; and
Brighton, Mich.
"Traditionally, there was always a
dividing line between policy and
administration; the elected officials
did all the policy work, and the
appointed administrator did all the
administration, and you'd better not
cross that line," Romer says. "That's
changed. I find myself being expected
to make policy recommendations in
addition to handling the administra-
tive requirements."

"I think many managers were
involved in policy (in the past), but,
in the last 20 years, it's become fully
legitimate," says Norman King, execu-
tive director for the San Bernardino
(Calif.) Associated Governments and
former city manager for the California
cities of Claremont, Palm Springs and
Moreno Valley. "Council members
likely come from different back-
grounds - business or homemaking
or whatever - and the manager has
the ability to layout different options
and articulate, the pros and cons of
various positions. Obviously, that will
involve making a recommendation."
In addition to becoming recognized
partners in policy-making, managers
are working to engage citizen involve-
ment in planning and problem-

solving. "The manager's role has
evolved into [one of] consensus build-
ing," King says. "He spends a lot of
time dealing with council members,
commissioners, businessmen, commu-
nity associations and neighborhood
associations. It is much more of an
external role than used to be the
"
case.
That certainly is true in Fairfax
County, Va., where County Executive
Robert O'Neill recently spent a day
meeting with various community
groups. At one gathering, he met with
neighborhood residents to discuss a
revitalization plan; at another, he met
with a group of not-far-profit entities
and county agencies to discuss a set of
progralns focusing on health care for
children from low~income families;

T.oday, every doUaLa public entity pays for insurance
buys far more coverage than it did just a few years
ago. In such an environment, some county and city man~
agersmay question the nee:J mretain a risk manager on
staff. After all, they reason, a risk manager's key responsi-
bility is to review bids and buy insurance, which is not a
difficult task whenpricesare low.
In fact, risk managers. bear responSibilities beyond bid
review and selection. Recognizing that insurnnce premi-
ums represent onlya portion of a public entity's cost of
risk, many local governments. are. emphasizing claims
management and loss prevention.. Risk managers are ele-
mental to the success of those.' efforts because, managed
effectively, risk management programs can save more
money than they cost.
For most communities, those savings can be quite sub-
stantial. For example:
· In Anaheim, Calif., Risk Manager Thomas Vance
created and implemented al.s~point, citywide "safety
action plan" that reduced the city's disabling injury rate
by 76 percent and cut temporary disability pay costs by
61 percent over a 13-year period;
· In Orem, Urah, Risk Manager Sue Stewart institut-
ed loss control and risk management programs that
resulted in a nearly 50 percent reduction in workers'
compensation costs over a six-year period; and
· In St. Paul, Minn., Risk and Employee Benefits
Manager Ron Guilfoile negotiated contribution caps on

by 65 percent.
Aldloughriskmanagement often. isassoeiatedwith

of potentially costly risks outside the health arena. Fa;
example, there are risks related to government deregula-
tion and devolution,. environmental. regulations, pension
plans andthehurgeoning field of employmentpr.1ctices
claims litigation.
As the field .. of public. risk has .evolved,<so..hav~the
re>>1Jorusibilities of the risk manager. Todays risk manager.
not only has to assess the types of riskand theirP<'tential
effect on local entities, but he . also must have a sophisti-
cated knowledge of risk financing. He must understand
portfolio management, loss portfolio transfer and finite
risk insurance, and he must combine the coverage and
funding alternatives.to best conserve the public entity's
limited revenues.
Local governments seeking to curtail or eliminate risk
managers because of a soft insurance market are over-
looking the benefits of aggressively pursuing risk man-
agement programs. A risk manager offers the expertise
and leadership to take full advantage of loss prevention
methods, claims management and financing vehicles. *

and, finally, he met with law enforce-
ment and school representatives to
discuss school security.
"When I first got in this business,
the chief administrative officer dealt
more with the technical skills that he
brought to the job, whether they be
finance or engineering or whatever
the background that he might have
had," says O'Neill, who was city man-
ager for Hampton, Va., for 13 years
prior to becoming county executive
last year. "The major transformation
that I've seen is that the role of the
county executive has become more
that of a broker."
"We opemte in a competitive envi-
ronment," says Frank Benest, city
manager for Brea, Calif., and former
city manager for Colton, Calif. "We
compete with other communities for
resident.s, businesses, visitors, service
users, discretionary income, attention
and political support. We compete for
everything. To be successful, you have
to be very conscious of your cus-
tomers, how you're involving them
and what you're doing to make sure
they support you."
NAVIGATING NEW BOUNDARIES
Although the role of Manager as
Broker takes many managers outside
the government organization, it has
equal importance internally, Renest
notes. "It's expected that the city
manager is a strong leader," he says.
"That's externally, in terms of other
governmental agencies and in engag-
ing citizens and business people,
and internally, in terms of staff and
departments."
More than ever, manager's offices
are being tapped to coordinate inter-
departmental projects. "Most cities are
organized as silos, with the police
department doing its thing; develop-
ment services doing its thing; and so
forth," Benest says. "But the big issues
of the day cut across the silos."
For example, he notes that recre-
ation and community services devart-
ments are working more closely to
provide "a more human service-
oriented approach to recreation -

Police departments are moving from
strict enforcement to community-
oriented policing; and development
services and community development
department$ are muulally involved in
neighborhood revitalization. "You
have to find ways of having different
departments work in a collaborative
fashion," he says.
In addition to coordinating their
own departments, managers also are
building relationships that allow their
local governments to extend their
services to other localities and to
enlist help in delivery. For example,
Fairfax County recently began work-
ing with not-far-profit groups to meet
the service demands of a growing and
increasingly diverse population. (The
county's population is 940,000, and,
as the general purpose local govern-
ment, Fairfax County radler tllan dle
cities within its borders is responsible
for providing all public services except
transportation. )
"We've had huge immigration into
tile county from tile Far East, SOUdl
America, Eastern Europe and the
Middle East," O'Neill says, noting
that more than 100 languages are spo-
ken in the county's school system.
"We need to have enormous language
capabilities in our service delivery
component, and we've got to under-
stand not only the language issues but,
in many cases, the cultural differ-
ences," he explains. "lAs a result], we
have to do more in teams, and we
~ ..()l);f9
flftJfj
L;,J,.::i:.tJ .(,D
have to do it in pMtnerships with
not-far-profit groups that may have
more knowledge about the cultural
basis for many of these communities."
The chief executive can have a sig-
nificant impact on how smootbly
local government departments adjust
to changing demands, O'Neill says.
He estimates that he spends as much
time building consensus internally as
he does externally.
"I try to create an environment
where we can change our organization
and be responsive to what the new
reality is," he says. "That means work-
ing with employees and explaining
the changing dynamics, helping them
understand how tllose will affect dlem
and engaging them to have some
influence on that."
THE ESSENTIAL MANAGER
City and county managers come in
a variety of packages, including
Administrator, Executive, Director,
General Manager, Community Man-
ager and Executive Secretary. Regard-
less of dleir titles, however, tile skills
needed to succeed are the same.
"The ideal manager would be some-
one who is respected by his or her
employees and can deal well in the
political realm of the city council and
community
leaders," King
says. "That's a
hard thing to
gauge, but, if

8ITY!GObNH MANAGEMENT
Charlotte adapts the 'Balanced Scorecard'
For more than 25 years, Charlotte, N.C., measured
government efficiency and effectiveness by setting
objectives and tracking performance against them.
Although the method served the city well, it focused pri-
marily on the past. Therefore, the dty began searching
for a performance measurement system that emphasized
strategic planning for the future.
In the early '90s the city manager researched the "Bal-
anced Scorecard," a concept introduced in the private
sector by Robert Kaplan, the Marvin Bower Professor of
Leadership Development at Harvard Business School,
Cambridge, Mass., and David Norton, president of
Renaissance Worldwide, a Newton, Mass.-based business
and technology consulting firm. Charlotte adapted the
model to apply to the public sector, becoming the first
U.S. city to do so.
service delivered. (Routine services, such as side-
walk installation, garbage pickup or fire suppression,
are better addressed on a department or division score-
card.) Instead, the scorecard reflects the processes that
must improve in order for the council to meet its strate-
gic goals.
"A Balanced Scorecard provides substantial focus,
motivation and accountability in government... ,"
Kaplan says. "The scorecard ... communicates to external
constituents and internal employees the outcomes and
performance drivers by which the organization will
achieve its mission and strategic objectives."
In late 1996, after Charlotte's council had established
the city's "corporate" scorecard, the process was repeated
by the planning, transportation, engineering and proper-
ty management, and police departments. Department-

The Balanced Scorecard promotes the establishment
of tangible objectives and measures that relate to an
organization's mission, vision and strategy. It focuses on
four critical success indicators; customer service, finan-
cial accountability, internal work efficiencies, and learn-
ing and growth. Priorities are set within the major cate-
gories, first at the corporate level and dlen at division,
department, team and even individual levels.
In 1990, Charlotte City Council chose five areas -
community safety, transportation, economic develop-
ment, neighborhoods and restructuring government -
on which to focus its strategic plan. Those priorities were
later modeled (see the accompanying tabie), represent-
ing the "corporate" level of the dty's scorecard.
The Balanced Scorecard emphasizes strategic process-
es over routine processes. In Charlotte, the council's
scorecard does not and cannot include every important

level objectives were matched with council-Ievelobjec-
tives to ensure dlat the city would achieve its highest
priori ti es.
Today, all of the city's departments have scorecards,
but it will take three years before the measurement sys-
tem becomes a routine part of the city's business. The
concept of having only a few performance indicators has
been trouble~ome since previously there were unlimited
measures. However, with the council's support and the
participation of the departments, the city has been able
to clarify its critical objectives, identify the processes
necessary to meet them and produce a concise model to
assist officials in tracking the city's progre,>s. *

(gauge it), hiring a manager would be
as simple as that. You could hire a suc-
cessful manager every time."
In the absence of such a gauge,
existing managers point to some
essential skills, noting that local gov-
ernment managers should be able to:
· communicate with people;
· build a trusting relationship with
the cOlmcil or commission;
· recognize how political issues
can affect decisions and maintain
impartiality;
· engage citizens to ensure support
for the city;
· market the community;
· negotiate and build consensus;
· have a sense of The Big Picture,
understanding that progress can be
made only incrementally; and
· assist in developing the resources
for each increment.
"The skills around facilitation are
going to be increasingly important,"
AMERICAN CITY & COUNTY
O'Neill predicrs. In fact, because man-
agers are involved in that role, some
cities and counties are hiring assistant
managers to oversee operations.
That is the case in Brea, where the
assistant city manager serves as a chief
operations officer, handling budget,
labor relations and day-to-day busi-
ness. "The city wanted a strong exter-
nalleader," Benest says. "[Having an
assistant city manager] allows me to
be very involved in the development
and redevelopment issues, as well as in
some regional governance and other
external issues."
In addition to representing their
communities across internal and
external boundaries, future local man-
agers will need to devote increased
attention to employee relations,
Romer says. "There is an intensified
need for personnel management train-
ing," he explains. "Case law in [Amer-
icans With Disabilities] issues, sexual
harassment,
and age and
gender dis-
crimination
have forced us
all to be more aware of constraints
that are on us as managers. It's
[opened up] a whole area that we as
managers need to be very good at."
Additionally, although technology
demands will continue to grow, King
notes that technological training is
not a requirement for good manage-
ment. "It's not very important for the
manager to have technology experi-
ence, but he has to have some ability
to understand what applications
might be of assistance and to hire peo-
ple who can deal with it," he says.
· A PRETTY GOOD DEAL'
As city and county managers juggle
the demands of citizens, councils,
commissions and neighboring corrunu-
October 1998
33
nities, it might be easy to lose sight of
what pushed them into public service
in the first place. Not so, O'Neill says.
"I started an internship in college
and sort of got hooked on it," he
explains. "It is interesting because
you deal with policy and the imple-
mentation of that policy, and you can
see its impact, whether on an individ-
ual, a group or a whole community.
Being able to work in partnership
with communities to make them bet-
ter and seeing the results of that are
very stimulating."
"[1 went into it] because it gave me
the ability to [work on] real con-
stituent issues and city council con-
cerns of potholes and trimming trees,
as well as the ability in the same day
to get involved in larger policy issues
of air quality or planning or that kind
of thing," King says. "I've enjoyed that
kind of balance."
At the end of the day, the job is
about fulfilling a collective vision,
Henest says. "A developer recently
came into [Brea] and wanted to put
gates on a high-end residential pro-
ject, but one of our mission statements
is that we're an inclusive community,"
he says. "I was very strong in saying
that gates do not reflect who we are
and who we want to be as a communi-
ty, and I was able to make a difference
(defeating the developer's request).
When I walked away that day, I was
able to say, 'Hey, I just made this a
better community.' If you can walk
away with a few of those situations,
where you helped bring to life certain
kinds of values, that's a pretty good

Performance measures: What's the score?
Are performance measurement systems necessary
competitive tools that finally are catching on?
Cities that use them attest to their usefulness (see
related story on page 28), but many still are reluctant to
adopt them.
"It is a risk," says Norman King, e:xectltive director for
the San Bernardino (Calif.). Associated Governments.
"ObViously, if performance indicators.are comparable or
represented to be comparable to odler cities, you run a
risk of not looking good. On the otherhand, if they're
put in the context of an assessment, they . can assist you
in embarking on a program to improve [in areas] where
you're a little weaker than you should be."
That is what happened in Fairfax County, Va.'where
('-Qunty Executive RobertO'NeiH oversawtheimple-
mentation of a performance measurement system last
year. "There was a lot of apprehension [on the part of
board of supervisors]," he says. "You know, [they worried
about] what happens if you don't nleetYOUf targets."
Their fears were unfounded, however; following the
release of the county's "baseline". report card, community
feedback WdS favorable. "People knew this was a work in
progress," O'Neill says; "We got lots of compliments
from civic organizations and community groups that
appreciated having the information."
The county's measurement system begins at the
department level, where, based on individual perfor-
mance evaluations, department heads submit their rec-
ommendations as part of the budget drn.--ument.. At tlle
executive's office, the recommendations are reviewed "to
see if the sum of the activities is going to get us 'where we
want to go, and we make some adjustments to that,"
O'Neill explains. "Then we focus on the measures them-
selves, focusing on outcomes and rerurn on investment."
The process has proven \Iseful, O'Neill says. "It is
important because it has to do with accountability to the
community. It also helps focus discussion around the
things that are most important and transferring resources
from the less important," he explains. "The more perfor-

munity and thegoveming body to have that discussion."

difficult, O'Neill says. "Communities in different states
classify departments and operations differently," he
explains. "That makes it difficult to pick up a MandaI

compare it directly to the financial statement faT Fairfax

Despite the risks and dle lack of standards, O'Neill

"I think it does two things," he explains. "It tells you

The Council-Manager Form of Government:
Answers to Your Questions
Q: What is the council-manager form of government, which is used in so many cities, towns,
and counties?
A: The council-manager form is the system oflocal government that combines the strong political
leadership of elected officials in the form of a governing body, with the strong managerial experience of
an appointed local government manager. The governing body, commonly known as the council, may
also 'be referred to as the commission -or the board The cOurlcil-manager form establishes a '
representative system where all power is concentrated in the elected council and where the council hires
a vrQf~ssiQnaUy train~d manag~r tQ Qv~rs~~ the delivery Qf publi~ servi<tes.
Q: Is it a responsive form of government?
A: Tn councll-manager government, the mayor or chairperson o/the governing body and council
members are the leaders and policy makers elected to represent the community and to concentrate on
policy issues that are responsive to citizens' needs and wishes. The manager is appointed by the
governing body to carry out policy and ensure that the entire community is being served. If the manager
is not responsive to the governing body's wishes, the governing body has the authority to terminate the
manager at any time. In that sense, a manager's respOllsiveness' is tested daily. '
Q: Are all council-manager governments structured the same way?
A: No. One of the most attractive features is that the council-manager form is adaptable to local
conditions and preferences. For example, some communities have councils that are elected at large
while other QOUUQils are eleQted by distriQt or by a Qombination of an at-large and by-distriQt struQture.
In some local governments the mayor or chairperson is elected at large by the voters; others are elected
by their colleagues on the governing body.
Q: What is the council's function?
A: The council is the legislative body; its members are the community's decision makers. Power is
centralized in the elected council, which approves the budget and determines the tax rate, for example.
The council also focuses on the community's goals, major projects, and such long-term considerations
as community growth, land use development, capital improvement plans, capital financing, and strategic
planning. The council hires a professional manager to carry out the administrative responsibilities and
supervises the manager' s perfQrman~e,

Q: Where does the mayor or chairperson of the governing body fit in?
A: Mayors or chairpersons in council-manager communities are key political leaders and policy
developers-and their duties, responsibilities, and-authorities depend on the organization's charter. In
council-manager communities, typically the mayor or chairperson presides at council meetings, serves
as a spokesperson for the community, facilitates cOll111mnication and understanding between elected and
appointed officials, assists the council in setting goals and advocating policy decisions, and serves as a
promoter and defender of the community. In addition, the mayor or chairperson serves as a key
representative in intergovernmental relations. The mayor or chairperson, council, and manager
constitute a policy-development and management team.
Q: What is the manager's function?
A: The manager is hired to serve the council and the community and to bring to the local
government the benefits of training and experience in administering local goveniinent projects and
pmgrams em behalf ofthe governing body. The manager prepares a budget for the council's
<1Qnsideration; re<truits, hin~s, and supervises the government's s41ff; serves as the <1QlJU<;il' s <;hief
adviser; and carries out the council's policies. Council members and citizens count on th@manag@rto
provide complete and objective information, the pros and cons ofaltematives, and long-term
consequences.
Q: What is the cost to the local government of appointing a professional manager?
A: Local governments have found that overall costs actually have been reduced with competent
management. Savings come in the form of reduced operating costs, increased efficiency and
productivity, improved revenue collection, or effective use of technology.
Q: Does the manager participate in policy determination?
A: The manager makes policy recommendations to the council, but the council mayor may not
adopt them and may modifY the recommendations. The manager is bound by whatever action the
CQuncil takes,

Q: Is this form of government used only in certain kinds of cities?
A: No. In fact, it is not restricted to cities. It is used by towns and counties too. More than 3,400
cities operate under this form, and more than 371 counties operate under the council-administrator form.
They vary greatly in size and characteristics.
Q: How many Americans live in communities that operate under council-manager
government?
A: More than 89 million.
Q: Is the form popular in large communities?
A: Yes. Out of237 cities with greater than 100,000 residents, 141 use this form of government.
Some examples are Charlotte, North Carolina; Dallas, Texas; Las Vegas, Nevada; Oklahoma City,
Okl~Qm~; PhQ~nix, ArizQn~; S~ AntQniQ, Tex~; S~ Di~gQ ~ng S~ Jo~e, C~lifQrni~; Virginia Be~~h,
Virginia; and Wichita, Kansas. Large counties that use the structure include: Broward County, Florida;
Clark County, Nevada; Fairfax County, Virginia; Hamilton County, Ohio; Mecklenburg County, North
Carolina; and Santa Clara County, California.
Q: How much citizen participation is possible under council-manager- gover-nment?
A: Successful examples of citizen participation in the local government service delivery
decision-making process are widespread among professionally managed communities. Because
professional local government management offers government of the people, by the people, and for the
people, it sets the stage for citizen activism by encouraging open communication between citizens and
their government. Examples range from visioning, in which citizens playa major role in determining
the future of their community, to neighborhood service delivery, which involves residtmts through the
development ofcitizenlgovernment partnerships, to community-oriented local government services.
. Because political power is concentrated in the entire governing body rather than one elected
official, more citizens have an opportunity to be elected to a position in which they have significant

Q: What is the history of the council-manager form?
A: Born out of the progressive reform movement at the beginning of the 20th century, the
council-manager system oflocal government is one ofllie few original Ar"'l1erican contributions to
political theory. In 1908, Staunton, Virginia, instituted the first position legally defining, by ordinance,
the broad authority and responsibility associated with today's professionallocal government manager.
Sumter, South Carolina, was the first city to adopt a charter incorporating the basic principles of
council-manager government in 1912. Westmount, Quebec, introduced the form to ~Canaaa in 1913.
The fIrst large city to adopt the plan was Dayton, Ohio, in 1914. The fIr-st counties to adopt it in the
1930s were Arlington County, Virginia, and Durham County and Robeson County, North Carolina.
Since its establishment, the council-manager form has become the most popular form of
government in the United States in communities with populations of5,OOO or greater. The form also is
popular in Canada, Australia, the Netherlands, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Honduras, Chile, and
Brazil. For more than 94 years, council-manager government has responded to the changing needs of
citizens and their communities.
Q: How can a community adopt this form of government?
A: Methods vary, but most communities can adopt council-manager government through a
charter, a local or-dinance, Of a state enabling law. In many cases, adoption must be by vote of the local
governing body. For information on how your community can adopt council-manager government,
contact your state municipal league or association of counties. You can find the addresses of these
organizations in leMA's Municipal Year Book at your local library, or on the Internet.
Q; How is the manager selected?
A: The vacancy usually is, announced in the leMA Newsletter, and managers in other communities
are invited to apply if they are interested. Managers, assistants, and others apply directly to the council,
which reviews the applications and interviews qualified candidates. leMA makes no recommendations
regarding candidates. Further information is available in the handbook Recruitment Guidelines/ar

Q: Does the manager have to be a local resident at the time the appointment is made?
A: No. Local residence should not be required of applicants at the time the appointment is made.
Managers are professionals who might serve several communities during their careers, bringing
extensive experience coordinating public services and applying management techniques to a community.
Q: What salary does the manager receive?
A: Earnings of managers depend on their educational background and experience, the size and
complexity of the local governments employing them, and the economic conditions of the regions where
communities are located. The council sets the manager's salary. Detailed information on salaries is
compiled annually by leMA and is available on request.
Q: Can the manager be fired?

majority of the council, consistent with local laws, ordinances, or employment agreements they may
have with the council. Control is always in the hands of the elected representatives of the people.
Q: Where do managers get their experience?
A: Nearly 73 percent of managers surveyed by leMA have a master's or a professional degree.
Respondents indicated that they had spent an average of 17 years in the local government management
profession.
Q: DQ m~n~ger$ p~rti~ip~te in IQ~1 PQliti~~?
A: All managers who belong to lCMA are bound by its Code of Ethics, which states that every
member of the Association shall-refrain from all political activities that undermine public confidence in
professional administrators and refrain from participation in the election of members of the employing
legislative body.

Forms of Local Government
Council Manager
In the council-manager form of government, the council is the governing body of the city elected by the
public, and the manager is hired by council to carry out the policies it establishes. The council usually
consists of five to nine members including a mayor (or council president) who is either selected by the
councilor elected by the people as defined in the city charter. The size of the council is generally
smaller than that of a mayor-council municipality, and council elections are usually nonpartisan.
The council provides legislative direction while the manager is responsible for day-to-day administrative
operation of the city based on the council's recommendations. The mayor and council as a collegial
body are responsible for setting policy, approving the budget, and determining the tax rate. The manager
serves as the council's chief advisor. Managers also serve at the pleasure of the council and are
responsible for preparing the budget, directing day-to-day operations, and hiring and firing personnel.
Typically, the mayor is recognized as the political head of the municipality, but is a member of the
legislative body and does not have the power to veto legislative actions.

Mayor-Council
The mayor-council (council-elected executive counties) form of government is the form that most
closely parallels the American federal government, with an elected legislature and a separately elected
executive.
The mayor or elected executive is designated as the head of the city or county government The extent of
his or her authority can range from purely ceremonial to functions to full-scale responsibility for day-to-
day operations. But the mayor's or elected executive's duties and powers generally include the
following: hiring and firing department heads, preparation and administration of the budget, and veto
power (which may be overridden) over acts of legislature. The legislature has the following
responsibilities: adoption of the budget, passage of resolutions with legislation, auditing the performance
of the government, and adoption of general policy positions.

Commission
The commission form of government, characterized by an elected governing board that holds both
legislative and executive powers, is the oldest form of government in America. A descendent of the old
English shire-moot, or county governing board, the board is usually composed of three to five members,
although the number varies.
The board of commissioners is the county governing board, and serves as the head of the government. It
has responsibility for adopting the budget, passing resolutions, and enacting ordinances and regulations.
A number of other officials are also popularly elected, and serve as heads of some of the major county
departments (although the number of these independently elected officials varies considerably, some of
the most common are the sheriff, treasurer, and clerk).
Town Meeting
All qualified voters of the town gather on a given day (usually once a year, but more often if necessary)
to dect a board of officers (selectmen) and to make policy decisions. The board of selectmen has the
responsibility for carrying out the policy set by the citizens. In some towns a manager or administrator is
appointed to carry out the administrative operations of the town.
Representative Town Meeting
The representative town meeting form of government is structured in much the same way as the tovvll
meeting form, with the exception that a large number of citizens are chosen by the general electorate to
represent them in voting. All citizens can attend the meetings and participate in debates, but only those
chosen as representatives have a direct vote.

How to Adopt Council-Manager Government
Getting Started
Adopting and implementing the council-manager form in your community requires a well-informed
public and governing body, as well as, adherence to state legislation. A campaign supporting the
council-manager form may be necessary before a community or council vote on the referendum. For
detailed information about the implementation of the council-manager plan in your community,
suggested contacts include:
. International City/County Management Association
(Publications including The Benefits of Hiring A Professional Administrator, Citizens'
Handbook on Retention of the Council-Manager Plan, The Council-Manager Plan:
Answers to Your Questions, The County Administrator Video, Council-Manager Plan
Video: Good Government at Work, Guide for Charter Commissions, lvfodel City Charter,
lvfodel County Charter, Responsive Local Governl'nent Packet, and Responsive County
Package)
. Your state's municipal league or association of counties
(Local information, model charter/ordinance
. The National Civic League
(Information, model charter/ordinance)
. Managers within your region
Your state's municipal league or association of counties, National Civic League, and lCMA can provide
a model ordinance or charter that your community's attorney can modifY to fit state legislation and your
community's needs. Local active and retired managers can be asked to speak or answer questions at
community meetings. The general counsel's office, or research division, of your state's municipal league
and association of counties can also provide examples of what other communities within your state have
done.
Organizing a Campaign
The following is a list of steps to help achieve the adoption of the council-manager form:
1. Organize a citizens' committee
It is essential that a committee be organized to lead the campaign in support of the council-
manager fonn. The citizens' committee should have centralized leadership and be broadly
based, including as many segments of the community as possible.
2. Address the logistics of the referendum
http://www2.icma.org/upload/library/IQ/I06147.htm

How to Adopt Council-Manager Government
Page 2 of3
Try to schedule the date of the referendum for maximum voter patticipation, particulat'ly if
a high turnout will result in adoption of the plan, Consider how long the campaign should
be. A short campaign means a quick vote. If a long campaign will allow the opposition to
gain strength, perhaps the short catnpaign is a wise choice.
3. Carry out the campaign
Inform the public, research and get the facts about the council-manager form, seek finances
and volunteers, and concentrate resources in focus areas to maximize campaign
effectiveness.
Ways to Adopt the Plan
There are generally three ways to adopt the council-manager form:
1. Public Vote to Change the Charter
Jurisdictions with a charter can place an issue on the ballot tor citizens to determine. Charter
change generally can be placed on the ballot either by a vote of the elected body or through
a citizen petition. The petition process is governed by the charter or state law.
2. Adopt Ordinance
In this case, council votes on an ordinance or resolution to implement the council-manager
form.
3. Adopt Existing State Legislation
In this case, council votes on an ordinance or resolution to adopt existing state legislation
which implements the council manager form.
An Example
As mentioned above, the laws and means necessary to implement the council-manager form vary by
state. The following is the legal underpinnings of the council-manager plan in California:
State law authorizes general law cities to adopt what is kllown as the "city manager furm of government
which is sometimes also referred to as "the council-manager plan". (See generally Cal. Gov't Code
934851 et seq.) This approach allows the council to delegate to a manager the power to administer the
day-to-day affairs of the city.
The managers responsibilities are defined by ordinance. (See generally Cal. Gov't Code 934852.) T'llese
responsibilities include most types of personnel decisions including hiring and firing subordinate
employees. (See generally Cal. Gov't Code S34856.)

How to Adopt Council-Manager Government
A city manager form is created by ordinance. The ordinance may be enacted in one of three ways:
. By the council;
. Submitted by the council to the citizenry of the city for a vote; or
. Put on the ballot by initiative by the citizenry.
(See generally CaL Gov't Code g3485L) The city manager holds office at the pleasure of the city
council. (See generally Cal. Gov't Code g34506.)
Of course, charter cities are free to organize as they choose, subject to the provision of their charters and
the state constitution. Reprinted with the Permission of Western City, 1996

2. Appointed clerks
Individuals who are working as city clerks in Plan A and Plan B
cities are generally appointed and removed from their positions. But
the power to appoint or remove the clerk is given to different people
depending upon the type of city.
a. Plan A cities
The clerk is appointed (hired) by the city council in a Plan A city. As
such, the clerk in a Plan A city may be removed by the council.
However, in certain instances, the council may have to follow certain
procedures in order to remove the clerk. For example, if there are
civil service rules ill place, or if the employee is a veteran, certain
procedures may need to be followed in order to remove the clerk.
City councils that are considering removal of their city clerk should
contact their city attorney for guidance.
b. Plan B cities
The city clerk in a Plan B statutory city is also an appointed office.
In this type of city, however, the clerk is hired by the city manager.
The city manager also has the power to remove the city clerk. But
the city attorney should always be consulted before removing a city
officer.
3. Home rule charter cities
The role of a city clerk in a home rule charter city will depend upon
the provisions that exist in the city's charter. Home rule charter cities
should check their charters to determine whether there is such an
office in their city, and if the office is appointed or elected. If the
office exists, there may also be a provision that explains how the
position is filled and how a person is removed from the office. As
with other terminations, the council and the city manager should
consult with the city attorney before beginning the process.
Part IV. City administrator
The city administrator position is not required, nor even mentioned
in state statute. The position is generally created by ordinance or
resolution, and is often combined with the clerk position into a clerk-
administrator position.
The history of the city administrator position is less defined than the
history of either the clerk or manager positions. In IVlinnesota, the
position has apparently grown out of the city clerk position. As a
city's operations grow in complexity, it becomes unrealistic for the

elected body to oversee day-to-day operations. In a step to move
towards delegating many of these day-to-day functions, many city
councils have chosen to create the position of city administrator.
A key issue in the creation of the city administrator position is the
level of authority, particularly supervisory authority of other city
staff, that will be vested in the position. In some cities, the
responsibilities may be an expansion of the city clerk's duties. In
other cities, the powers may be almost as broad as those of a city
manager, with the exception that the council cannot delegate its final
authority for hiring and firing city staff However, some city councils
give deference to the administrator's recommendations on
appointments and removals.
A. Form of government
The administrator position is not a required position for any type of
city but city councils may choose to have such a position. It is more
common to see an administrator in a Plan A city. The position is
usually created by ordinance or resolution Sometimes the
administrator position exists in addition to a separate city clerk
position, but often the duties are merged into a combined clerk.
administrator position. Because a Plan B city has a city manager, it
would be unlikely to also have a city administrator position. Home
rule charter cities should check their city charters for provisions
dealing with their city administrator.
B. Powers and duties
Since the city administrator is not a position that is created by state
statute, its duties can vary gready from city to city. Generally, the
position is one to which the city council delegates some of its
responsibilities for the day-to-day administration of the city.
When the position is combined with that of the city clerk, however,
it will include all the duties of the city clerk But the council is not
able to delegate hiring and firing decisions to the administrator.
Statutory city councils that wish to delegate this responsibility might
consider adopting the council-manager plan under Optional Plan B.
Home rule charter cities, however, may be able to delegate such
responsibility with a proper charter provision.
The Minnesota Supreme Court found that a city council could not
delegate its legislative power to an administrator. Nor could it
delegate any administrative power that calls for judgment and
discretion to an administrative officer, such as the authority to enter
into a contract to purchase a fire pumper.
League of Minnesota Cities

The following responsibilities are among those often given to city
administrators:
.
Administration direction. Direct the administration of the
city as provided by council action, and state and federal
statutes.
.
City affairs. Coordinate with the city council in
administrating city affairs.
.
Policy recommendation. Recommend policies that will
further goals of the city council and generally improve the
quality of city administration.
.
Local improvements and city projects. Prepare reports and
summaries relating to proposed municipal projects/
improvements and submit them with recommendations as
may be required to the council for study and subsequent
action.
.
Budgets. Prepare a recommended budget for consideration
by the city council.
.
Financial statements. Prepare the annual financial statement
and perfonn other duties as required by Minnesota statute.
.
Meetings. Attend and participate in all council meetings.
Attend (at administrator's discretion) or by invitation other
committee and commission meetings.
.
City programs. Coordinate city programs and activities as
authorized by the council.
Financial reports. Submit quarterly reports to the council of
the financial condition of the city's accounts.
.
.
Elections. Supervise the conduct ofloca! elections in
accordance with prescribed laws and regulations.
.
Supervision. Supervise and have day-to-day oversight of the
activities of all city department heads and the administrative
staff
.
Employment. Make recommendations to the council
regarding employment and removal of city staff.
Cooperate with professional staff. Work in cooperation with
the city attorney and city engineer.
..
21
. Public relations. Prepare news releases, and develop and
discuss public relations material. Maintain good public
relations with the general public.
. Consul1ation. Consult with appointed officials and with other
public or private agencies as may be required.
. Other public programs. Be informed of federal, state, and
county programs that affect the city.
. Labor negotiation. Negotiate or delegate the negotiation of
the terms and conditions of employee labor contracts.
. Other duties. Perform all other duties required of
administrator by ordinances or resolutions adopted by the
council.
Cities should check their city ordinances for a list of the
administrator's job duties. Home rule charter cities should check
their charters for similar infonnation for this position, if it exists in
their city.
C. Appointment and removal
MinD. Stat. ~ 412.111
The city administrator is a position that is created by council
ordinance or resolution. As such, the council has the power to define
the duties and responsibilities of its administrator, as well as the
power to hire and remove individuals in the position.
The appointment and removal process will vary depending upon the
type of city, as well as other factors, such as personnel policies,
employment contracts, and the ordinance or charter provision that
created the position. Although department heads are generally
exempt from the veterans' preference removal requirements, whether
or not they apply will depend upon the specifics of the situation and
the type of responsibilities that are given to the administrator. A city
council that is seeking to remove its city administrator should
consult with its city attorney before beginning the removal process
Home rule charter cities should check their city charters for
appointment and removal procedures. These cities should also be
concerned with the same factors that were discussed above for
statutory cities.
Minn. Stat. ~ 197.46
Part V. City manager
MinD. Stat. ~ 412.541
The city manager position is found in Plan B statutory cities and in
many home rule charter cities. This form of government is known as
22

MinD. Stat. ~~ 412.611
and 412.621
City Admininstrator
the council~manager plan. In this type of government, the cOlll1cil
exercises the legislative power of the city and determines all matters
of policy, similar to a board of directors in a private sector company.
The city manager formulates policy recommendations to the city
council, and administers and implements the policies--much as a
CEO would do in a private sector company.
The council-manager plan was first created in the early 1900s as a
means through which government could be "professionalized. n It
reflects both the parliamentary approach to government and the
corporate business model in its structure and ideals. Early
proponents of the council ~manager fonn of government believed it
accomplished the following worthy goals:
. It replaced the divisiveness of some other forms of
government with a more unified model of government in
which the council had both legislative and administrative
authority.
. It placed responsibility for day-te-day administration of city
business in the hands of a professional manager rather than
elected officials.
A. Form of government
The city manager position is found in statutory cities that adopt to
become Optional Plan B cities. The Plan B form of government is
also called the council-manager plan. 1bis form of government is
also available to home rule charter cities that provide for the council-
manager plan in their charters. Under the council-manager plan, the
COlIDCil retains policy-making and legislative authority, and
delegates administration oflocal government to a manager. The
manager is responsible directly to the council and subject to council
removal. The manager appoints administrative department heads,
usually without the necessity for cOlll1cil approval.
The cOlll1cil as a whole retains ultimate administrative as well as
legislative responsibility and authority, except where an independent
board (such as an utilities commission) has one or more specific
fimctions.
B. Powers and duties
The Plan B city manager's duties are found in state statute, although
many councils will delegate additional responsibilities to this
individual. In home rule charter cities, the responsibilities are often
similar .

In a Plan B city, the city manager is the head of the administrative
branch of government. The person in this position is responsible to
the council for the proper administration of all affairs relating to the
city.
State statute provides that the city manager has a number of duties.
These responsibilities, described in more detail below, include the
following areas:
.
Statutes, ordinances, and resolutions.
.
City staff.
.
City departmmts.
.
Council meetings.
.
Recommend ordinances and resolutions.
.
City finances and budget
.
Chief purchasing agent
.
Administrative code.
.
Additional duties.
Duties for managers in home rule charter cities are likely to be
similar, but home rule charter city officials should check their city
charters for details regarding their manager's duties.
1. Statutes, ordinances, and resolutions
The city manager in a Plan B city must ensure the statutes relating to
the city and the laws, ordinances, and resolutions of the city are
enforced.
2. City staff
The city manager has the power to appoint and remove city staff.
This includes the positions of city clerk, department heads, and
subordinate officers and employees. If there are civil service rules or
a labor agreement in place, any applicable provisions must be
followed. The appointment and removal of the city attorney is
subject to the approval of the city council.

City Ad1ninitk."1rator
The city manager has complete discretion to appoint or remove staff
members within the limits of other applicable laws, such as the
Veterans' Preference Act, among others. Neither the council nor any
individual councilmember is allowed to dictate the appointment of
any person to office or employment by the manager. Council-
members may not interfere with the manager's judgment in
appointing personnel. Likewise, the statute provides that council
may not give orders to any subordinate of the manager. Instead, the
council's control is indirect, through its selection and appointment of
the manager. However, it is common practice today for city councils
to have some interaction with city staff.
3. City departments
The city manager has control over all departments of the
administration. This includes departments that are created under
Optional Plan B or by the city council.
4. Council meetings
The city manager must attend all meetings of the city council. He or
she has the right to take part in the council discussions, but cannot
vote. The city council may exclude the city manager from any
meetings at which the manager's removal is considered.
5. Ordinances and resolutions
The city manager must recommend ordinances, resolutions, and
policies to the council for adoption if the city manager deems them
necessary for the welfare of the people and the efficient
administration of the city affairs.
6. City finances and budget
The city manager must keep the council fully advised as to the city's
financial condition and needs. The manager must prepare and submit
the annual budget to the council.
City managers must prepare the estimates for the annual budget in
Plan B cities. The budget must be by funds and include all the funds
of the city except funds made up of proceeds of bond issues, utility
funds, and special assessment funds. Details of the budget format are
not within the scope of this document.
It is the city manager's duty to enforce the provisions of the budget.
The manager must not approve any order upon the treasurer for any
expenditure unless an appropriation has been made in the budget
resolution. Likewise, the manager must not approve any expenditure
covered by budget resolution unless there is a sufficient unexpended

balance left after deducting the total past expenditures and the sU1l1
of all outstanding orders and encU1l1brances.
The procedure for disbursement of funds is similar to that in a
standard plan or Plan A city except that the mayor and manager sign
the orders instead of the mayor and clerk. The manager must specifY
the particular fund from which payment will be made on each
contract that requires payment using city funds. This must be noted
on each contract.
7. Chief purchasing agent
The city manager is the chief purchasing agent for the city. All
purchases and contracts that do not exceed $15,000 are made or let
by the manager unless the council has set a lower limit. All claims
resulting from these purchases and contracts must still be audited
and approved by the council in the same manner as done in other
statutory cities.
All other purchases and contracts can be made by the council only
after the recommendation of the manager has first been obtained. All
contracts, bonds, and other instruments to which the city is a party
must be signed by both the mayor and the manager on behalf of the
city.
8 Administrative code
If the council requests it, the city manager must prepare an
administrative code for the council to consider adopting. The code
must incorporate the details of administrative procedure, and the city
manager must suggest amendments to the code from time to time.
9. Additional duties
The city manager must perform any other duties that are required by
statute for Plan B cities. Additionally, the manager must meet any
other responsibilities the council gives him or her by ordinance or
resolution.
Home rule charter cities with city managers should check their
charters for their manager's duties.
c. Appointment and removal
The city manager is appointed and removed by the city council.
1. Appointment
The manager is chosen by the council on the basis of training,
experience, and administrative qualifications. The manager is

appointed for an indefinite period of time and need not be a resident
of the city in order to hold the position.
2. Removal
The city manager may be removed by the c01U1cil at any time.
However, if the manager has served for one year or longer, the
manager may demand written charges and a public hearing on the
charges before the final removal takes effect The demand for written
charges must be made within seven days of notification of the
council's intent to remove the manager.
The council must set a date and a reasonable time for a public
hearing. The hearing must be held within 30 days of the manager's
demand and the hearing may not be recessed or reconvened until a
further date unless approved by the council.
Pending the hearing, the council may suspend the manager, with or
without pay. The council may designate another qualified person to
perform the duties of the manager during absence or disability.
The council must notify the city manager within five days of the
hearing of their decision to retain or remove the manager.
City councils that are considering removal of their manager should
consult with their city attorney before beginning the removal
process. The council should also consider any relevant employment
contract language, personnel policies, and ordinance or charter
prOVISIOns.
Part VI. Common issues
There are a number of areas that raise questions for city councils
regarding city clerks, administrators, and managers. These include
the following:
.
Shared clerks or administrators. Although rather rare in
Minnesota, sometimes a group of smaller cities will share an
administrator or clerk.
.
QualificatiollS. \tV'J1at should the council look for in a good
candidate to:fill a vacant clerk, administrator, or manager
position?
.
Pros and COIlS of employment contracts. Should the city use
an employment contract for its administrative office?
+
Delegation of du~'. What responsibilities can be delegated
to the administrative officer?
27
Minn. Stat. S 471.59
Contllct the Lellgue for

28
. Effective council relations. What is the best way for the
council to work with the administrative officer? What is the
best way for the administrative officer to work with the
council?
. Clerk, administrator, or 1tUlnager? When should a city
choose to have one of these positions versus another?
A. Shared clerks or administrators
Sometimes two or more smaller cities will share an administrator or
clerk. This allows cities that do not need a full-time position to
combine with another city to create a full-time position and
hopefully retain a more qualified candidate than would be attracted
to a part-time position. Cities are authorized to enter into a joint
powers agreement for such services if the cities involved all have the
same power to appoint such a position.
B. Qualifications (what to look for in candidates)
When a city hires a new clerk, administrator, or manager, it should
seek only qualified candidates. The qualifications that are best will
vary depending upon the needs of the city and the functions the
person will be expected to perform. This section applies primarily to
appointed city clerks, administrators, and managers. It only applies
to elected city clerks insofar as it can help voters to measure the
degree of qualification of the candidates on the ballot.
City councils should be certain the job description is up-to-date.
Look at the various needs of the city and define specifically what
tasks the successful candidate will perform. Once the job description
is current, it should be easier to write an advertisement for the
opemng.
In addition to the job description, city councils should evaluate the
current and future needs of the community. In this way, it can outline
the qualifications that will help the city to grow in the future.
Candidates should have good communication skills. Such skills are
necessary because of the amount of contact clerks, administrators,
and managers have with their city council. other city staff, the media.
and the general public.
Candidates for city administrator or manager are often required to
have degrees in public administration. Managers and administrators
need to have a thorough knowledge of finance and budgeting. Often,

Information Services can

1200 or (800) 925-1122.
City Admininstrator
cities require advanced degrees in one or more of these areas. A
master's degree in public administration is a common qualification
preferred by many city councils.
Experience is also an important aspect to consider. Generally, cities
will look for experience in city finances and budgeting, but it is also
common to see requirements for experience with specific areas such
as land use, municipal liquor stores, Economic Development
Authorities (EDAs), and Housing Redevelopment Agencies (HRAs).
Experience in running a well-organized office can also be an asset
Previous experience as a clerk, administrator, or manager can speak
to a candidate's abilities. Serving as a deputy clerk or an assistant to
a city administrator or manager can also be a desired qualification, as
can administrative experience in a smaller city. Likewise, an
internship with a city can provide valuable municipal experience.
The candidate' personality and style is another important
consideration. The council will obviously want a person whose style
is compatible with the council. Depending upon the current situation
in the city, a stronger personality can sometimes offer much needed
leadership. Under different situations, a "softer hand" may be more
appropriate. A city council must also carefully consider how much
control it wishes to delegate to the person hired.
C. Pros and cons of employment contracts
It is common to see individual employment agreements between
cities and their administrators or managers. Cities should consider
both the strengths and weaknesses of using these types of contracts.
TIle League of Minnesota Cities has several examples of employ-
ment contracts, which can be sent upon request. The Minnesota
City/County Management Association also has a model contract
available.
A city council should have its city attorney review any employment
contract before entering into the agreement.
1. Pros
The following are some of the benefits of using an emplOyment
contract for a city administrator or manager:
.
Clarification of wages and benefits. A written employment
contract allows all of the wages and benefits that are
negotiated during a job offer to be clarified and written in
one document. This can help to avoid the possibility of
miscolmnunication about verbal offers and tenus.
29
. Clarification of special terms. A written employment
contract allows any special terms or conditions of
employment that are agreed upon by the council and
administrator or manager to be specified in detail, again
avoiding miscommunication.
. Clarification of severance terms. A written employment
contract can be used to clarifY severance terms in case
the council decides to terminate the employment of the
administrator or manager. This eliminates the need to
negotiate a settlement at an emotionally difficult time for
all the parties concerned. This can help reduce the likelihood
of lawsuits.
. Performance reviews. A written employment contract can
be used to specify how and when the performance of the
administrator or manager will be reviewed, as well as outline
the role of the administrator or manager in general terms.
. Recruitment A written employment contract can be used as
a recruitment tool for applicants who prefer to work under a
formal contract.
. Objectivity. A written employment contract can help to
remove the appearance of self-interest when changes to the
city's personnel policy are being considered.
2. Cons
The following are some of the arguments against using an
employment contract for a city administrator or manager:
. Multiple contracts. A poorly drafted contract could mean the
city will pay until the end of the contract if the administrator
or manager leaves early or is terminated. The city could end
up paying for two contracts: the contract of the old employee,
and the contract for the new employee.
Mino. Stat ~ 465.72,
subd.1
.
Severance pay. Severance provisions often become outdated
because succeeding councils don't realize this language may
have been included in the contract to deal with a specific
termination problem. As a result, severance benefits in the
contract may be more beneficial to the administrator or
manager than they otherwise would be. (Note: State statute
prohibits severance pay from exceeding an amount equal to
one year of pay.)

. Differences. It can sometimes be confusing to have different
agreements in place for different employees or groups of
employees.
D. Delegation of duties
State statutes outline many of the duties that may be delegated to a
city administrative officer. See the individual sections that discuss
each position for further details. In some cases, various duties of the
clerk, administrator, or manager may be delegated to another city
staff member.
1. General duties
Since the statutory- city council has the power to create positions and
define their duties, it would appear it could delegate almost any
responsibility to any city staff However, there are specific duties
that must be performed by the city clerk or city treasurer because
they are required to perform them by state statute.
The courts have ruled a city council is without the authority to
delegate council legislative powers or any administrative power that
calls for judgment and discretion. However, the statutes provide that
certain such responsibilities, such as the hiring and firing of city
employees, are taken from the council and given to the city manager
in Plan B cities.
Home rule charter cities should consult their charters regarding the
ability to re-assign and delegate duties.
2. Authority for paying certain claims
The statutory- city council may delegate authority for paying certain
claims to a city administrative official. In order to do this, the city
must have internal accounting and administrative control procedures
to ensure the proper disbursement of public funds. The procedures
must include the regular and frequent review of the administrative
official's actions by the council. A list of all claims paid under the
procedures must be presented to the council for informational
purposes at the next regularly scheduled council meeting.
The council must pass a resolution to delegate such authority. The
resolution must specify the individual to whom the authority is
given, and that the person may pay those claims that meet the
standards and procedures established by the council.

Publication (LMC 440.1)
for a further dlscnssion of
dealing with the news
media.
32
A statutory city council that does not prepare annual audited
financial statements, which have been attested to by an independent
certified public accountant, public accountant, or the state auditor,
may not delegate its authority for paying certain claims against the
city.
Home rule charter cities should consult their charters for guidance on
their ability to delegate the payment of claims.
3. Public relations
Cities can take several steps to have effective relationships with the
media. Often, a city will assign the responsibility of talking to the
media to one person. Although this person is sometimes the mayor, it
is often the chief administrative officer (clerk, administrator, or
manager).
E. Effective council relations
The chief administrative officer, whether it is the clerk, the
administrator, or the manager, must work closely with the council.
As such, it is important that the working relationship be a good one.
Both the administrative officer and the council must always keep in
mind that they are working as a team to serve the community. While
differences of opinions are likely to occur, both sides must resolve
their differences quickly. Extended bickering can cause the public to
lose faith in the officer, as well as the city council. Sometimes,
resolving such a conflict can be as easy as agreeing to disagree.
F. Clerk, administrator, or manager?
Cities sometimes ask whether they should have a city clerk, an
administrator, or a manager. The answer to this question will depend
upon many variables that will not be identical from city to city.
If the council finds itself spending a lot of time administering day-to-
day activities, it may wish to delegate some responsibilities.
Depending upon the number of responsibilities and the amount of
time needed to adequately complete each of them, these
responsibilities can be given to an existing position (such as the city
clerk) or to a new position (such as an administrator or manager).
Generally, the practice has been that a small city will delegate
responsibilities to the city clerk until it becomes obvious that an
additional person is needed to help with the clerk's duties. At tIus
point, many cities will either create a city administrator position or
hire additional staff to help the clerk perform these additional duties.
In some cases, a city may have a specific issue with which it is
League of Minnesota Cities
dealing and want someone with expertise in the area. For example, if
the city is growing rapidly, the council may want someone who can
help oversee some of its land-use matters.
As a city gets larger, it may choose to adopt Plan B, in order to
delegate other responsibilities, such as making personnel decisions.
Such delegation allows the council more time to make important
legislative decisions.
Adoption of a home rule charter can give the city freedom to assign
duties however it chooses in its charter. Some cities have seen this as
the best method to use to get the government it wants.

A weekly legislative update from the League of Minnesota Cilies

Week Two: Pace Quickens and the
Plot Thickens
The second week of the 2003 legislative
session will end today with the Senate
completing their work on their alternative
response to Governor Pawle:nty's emergency
supplemental budget. Only 17 weeks to go-
before the end of the regular session and what
man y believe might be a special legislative
session to finish the legislature's budget
balancing work.
Pawlenty's proposal, released on Tuesday,
shaved $468 million in state spending-enough
to cover the estimated short-term $356 million
deficit and set aside $112 million in case the
state's revenues falter even more before the end
of the current fiscal year on June 30, 2003.
Fiscal staff show that $24 million is the current
budget reserve.
Relative to the governor's proposal, the Senate
plan restores funding for several programs
including CrimNet local planning, the 21 sl
century minerals fund, the ethanol production
subsidy, Clean Water Partnership grants, and
several other grant programs. Most of the
Senate's cuts take place in the areas of Health,
Human Services and Corrections departments.
In regards to a reserve, the Senate's plan would
add $28 million to a current $24 million.
The House plan will be unveiled next week and
will receive almost immediate committee
action. Committee chairs pledged to take up
their proposal and vote it out of commiltees on
Tuesday. The Senate's budget balancing
proposal passed out of Senate Finance
committee today, and is likely to be taken up at
their floor session, which is scheduled for next
Thursday.
January 17,2003
Its clear from observing caucus's activit y in
both bodies there is definite momentum to get
the short-term budget deficit taken care of so
time and attention can be focused on the larger
'04-05 problem of $4.2 billion. Once the
House and Senate pass their respective bills this
coming week, there will be a conference
committee to hammer out a negotiation. The
media has reported that the Governor will give
the legislature until early February before he
uses his authorit y to unallot.
Other Legislative News
Former Sen. Gene Merriam was named
Department of Natural Resources
Commissioner today with current Rep. Mark
Holsten (R-Stillwater) being named deput y

On Wednesday, attendees of the League's
legislative conference heard from key
legislative leaders, including Senate Majority
Leader John Hottinger and House Ways and

The following is in response to your request for information regarding right of way fees. The
best information I was able to find comes from an AlVIM 2001 License and Fee Survey. It's a
single page that lists what fees, if any, cities around the metropolitan area charge. I was not able
to find any additional infonnation that was as comprehensive as this and that listed specific
amounts. I have also included M. S. 237.163 subd. 6 that discusses local government fees for
right of way_ I hope you will find this information helpful.

412.541 Optional plans.
Subdivision 1. Optional Plan A. Any statutory city
may provide for the appointment of its clerk and treasurer, or
clerk-treasurer and the election of an additional council member
as hereinafter provided in this chapter. These departures from
the standard form of government are referred to hereafter as
Optional Plan A.
Subd.2. Optional Plan B. Any statutory city of
more than 1,000 population may provide for the council-manager
plan of government hereinafter provided in this chapter and
referred to as Optional Plan B.
Subd. 3. Repealed, 1967 c 289 s 18
Subd.4. Adoption or abandonment; standard form. Any
one of such plans may be adopted or abandoned in a city by
following the procedures set forth in section 412.5?1. Until
the adoption of an optional plan, and except as provided in
section 412.57~, every city shall operate under the standard
form of government earlier provided in this chapter under which
the voters elect the treasurer, if there is one, and a council
consisting of a mayor, three or five council members, and the
clerk or clerk-treasurer.
412.551 Election on optional plan.
Subdivision 1. One plan per election. The council
may, and upon petition therefor signed by voters equal in number
to at least 15 percent of the electors voting at the last
previous city election, shall, submit to the voters at a regular
or special election the question of adoption by the city of
Optional Plan A or B. Only one plan shall be so submitted at
anyone election, except that any such plan shall be submitted
at the election on incorporation of a city if the incorporation
petition so requests and the population of the proposed city,
when the submission of Optional Plan B is proposed, is more than
1,000. No plan, except a Home Rule Charter submitted under
chapter 410, shall be submitted in any city in which another
optional plan is already in effect until the latter plan has
been in effect for at least three years.
Subd.2. Form of ballot. The proposals for the
adoption of optional plans shall be stated on the ballot
substantially as follows:
"Shall Optional Plan A, modifying the standard plan of city
government by providing for the appointment by the council of
the clerk and treasurer be adopted for the government of the
city?"
"Shall Optional Plan B, providing for the council-manager
form of city government, be adopted for the government of the
city?"
If the city has combined the offices of clerk and
treasurer, the word "clerk-treasurer" shall be substituted for
the words "clerk and treasurer" in the question on the ballot on
adoption of Optional Plan A. In any of these cases, the
question shall be followed by the words, "Yes" and "No" with an
appropriate square before each in which a voter may record a
choice.
Subd. 3. Adoption. If a majority of the votes cast
on the question of adoption of Optional Plan A or B is in the
affirmative, the plan so voted upon shall be adopted in the city
and, once placed in effect as subsequently provided in this
chapter, shall remain in effect until abandoned by a similar
majority at subsequent election at which the question of
abandonment or adoption of another optional plan is submitted.
Subd. 4. Three~year minimum; abandonment. At any
time more than three years after the adoption of an optional
plan in a city, the question of abandonment of such plan may be
submitted to the voters, in the same manner as provided in the
foregoing sections for the submission of the question of
adoption, except that in the statement of the question on the
ballot, the word "abandoned" shall be substituted for the word
"adopted." If a majority of the votes cast on the question is
in favor of abandonment, the plan shall be abandoned; and,
subject to the special provisions for transition back to the
standard form of government contained in subsequent sections of
this chapter, the standard plan of government shall be resumed
in the city and all the provisions of law applicable to cities
in which an optional plan is not in operation shall henceforth
apply to the city.
Subd. 5. Filing election certificate. Whenever the
question of adoption or abandonment of an optional plan is
submitted in any city and results in a majority vote in favor of
the question submitted, the clerk shall promptly file with the
county auditor and with the secretary of state a certificate
stating the date of election, the question submitted, and the
vote on the question.

SUBJECT: Parks and Recreation Committee Update
DATE: January 16, 2003
The Parks & Recreation Committee have requested the City Administrator direct staff to
send letters to the residents in the area of Royal Meadows Park notifying them of a
neighborhood input meeting to discuss possible changes to Royal Meadows Park. This
will be held at the February 5, 2003 regularly scheduled Parks & Recreation Committee
meeting at 6:30 p.m. The committee is considering recommending to council that the
play structure currently at Royal Meadows Park be moved to Laurie LaMotte Park and
the basketball area at Royal Meadows Park be enlarged. The committee would like to get
,ommunity input on this idea.
:he following is from the December 4, 2002 Parks & Recreation ConnulUte Meeting
Minutes in regards to Royal Meadows Park:
Roval Meadows Public Input Hearing
Committee Member Walter drafted a letter to potentially be sent to the residents near
Royal Meadows Park informing them of the possibility of moving the play structure from
the park, adding an additional basketball hoop and the reasons for considering this move.
Some residents have already expressed concern, recognizing there are problems in the
park, but at the same time would not like to see the equipment moved as there are small
children who use the play structure. The goal was to send a letter to residents in January
notifying them of the public input hearing and holding the hearing in February. There are
some changes to be made to the letter. This item was tabled and put back on the agenda
for January.
Attached is a copy of the draft letter to be sent to residents.
January 6,2003
<<<<AddressBlock>>>>
<<<<GreetingLine>>>>
In an effort to have Royal Meadows Park meet the needs of Centerville and
the surrounding homes, the Parks & Recreation Committee would like your
input on potential changes and/or improvements to Royal Meadows Park.
Currently, the committee is exploring adding a larger play area to the
basketball court at Royal Meadows Park. The current basketball area would
be expanded into a full court. The city is considering moving some, or
possibly all, of the existing play structure from Royal Meadows Park to
Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park. This will provide adequate space for
enlarging the basketball area at Royal Meadows Park.
The Parks & Recreation Comnd'tf would like you and your neighbors to
join us on DATE to discuss opporhmities for improvements to Royal
Meadows Park, allowing Centerville and its residents to get the most out of
our parks.
Thank you,
The Parks & Recreation Committee of Centerville

January 14,2003

RE:
Honorable Mayor and Council Members
Mary Capra
City Festival - Parade and Fireworks
......................................................................................
Background: The previous council made a decision to support the city festival with a flat amount
of$10,000.00, which the council stipulated was only to be used to fund the parade and the fireworks.
This decision was decided upon due to these two events are free to the residents and visitors to
enjoy. It was the previous council determination this was a fair decision and eliminated the cities
financial responsibility in all other events during the festival.
Actions Taken:
· The previous council did budget $10,000.00 in the 2003 budget for this event.
· The parade committee chair Mr. John Thill presents each year to the city council a
detailed budget and the parade has always come in at or below their budget.
· Mr. Thill has been working to make the parade a success for the past ten years. He
and his parade volunteers have brought it to what it is today. I have spoken and asked
Mr. Thill if he would be willing to organize the parade again this year and he has
stated he would if his budgeted amount is the same as last year.
Actions for Consideration:
· The city would need to approve the disbursement of funds to the Centerville Lions
Organization with the stipulation it is to be used to fund the parade and fireworks.
· The Centerville Lions Organization will submit to the City an accounting of where
the monies have been spent.
· Last year the council approved the balance remaining from the parade budget (I
believe it was about $650.00) for the purchase of parade route flags so the city would
not have to borrow flags from the City of Forest Lake. If the council desires I would
ask this request be reaffirmed for Mr. Thill.

CHIEF'S REPORT
DECEMBER 2002
Several department employees and I on December 3rd and 4th served as bell ringers for
the Salvation Army at Festival Foods in Lexington. $826+ dollars in donations were
received on those two dates. The following staff volunteered their time-Deputy Chief
Makela, Adm. Sgt. Nelson, Cpl. McCarty, Officer Aldrich, Officer Corlew, Reserve
Officer Woods and Adm. Asst. Rismoen. Thanks to all who participated in this
community oriented policing event.
On. December 17th Cpl. Jensen opened his home to the department for a holiday
gathering. Those attending received a full course dinner with all the trimmings prepared'
for us by his entire family-quite an undertaking! Thank you Mike and family-it was a
great evening!
Several officers and staff were able to take time off during the month to celebrate the
holidays with their families. I was no exception. Beginning with my son-in-Iaws concert
at the Xcel Energy Center on December 20th, we had family, friends, and officers in our
home for "10" days of Christmas. Total time off during December included 44 days of
vacation used, 13 holidays, 10 comp days and 8 1f2 sick days.
Meetings I attended during the month included our regularly scheduled commISSion
meeting, a department meeting and training session on the new state accident report,
Anoka Co. emergency management, Centennial community network, Anoka Chiefs with

_ Subject:
Joel and Karen,
~ Attached are the December Meeting Minutes.
My last official act.
I want to let you know that the Centerville City Council approved the
resolution at our
December 19 Council Meeting and I created a capital improvements line
item to pay for it.
The vote was unanimous, but it took a bit of convincing on my part.
There is always a reluctance to exceed a budgeted amount.
I wish you both well and r look fonvard to the gathering in January.
Have a very Merry Christmas and extend my best wishes to all the members
of the Department!
It is quite remarkable in my 2 years as Mayor-- not once have I had a
complaint about the Police Department. Exceptional Indeed!
Tim

The Chief referenced the letter contained in the Commission Packet and noted that
Automedics had agreed to the changes after discussions with the Chief. The Chief
is looking forward to our association with Automedics for towing services.
Commissioners engaged in a discussion about forfeitures of vehicles based on
information at the League of Minnesota Cities November Seminar in White Bear
Lake. The Chief explained that state law is poorly written. The Chief and other
Police Chiefs have tried to eliminate the liability issues to Departments at the state
legislature. In summation, although forfeiture can be costly to a city if overturned in
the courts, Cities are liable if a subsequent crime is committed by releasing an
impounded vuhicle.
D. Letter to Cities Reference Police Facility
The Chief expressed thanks for the background letter, documentation, and
resolution presented to the City Councils for adoption. The Chief remarked thaf the
Department as a whole was grateful.
Commissioners asked for clarification of the sample resolution and Commissioner
Swedberg stated that the resolution was intended to:
· State the issues as presented by employees
· Identify that there are immediate health and safety issues and longer term facility
needs.
· Alert Councils to the fact that expertise to examine the questions must be
obtained outside the Department
· Request authority to exceed the 2003 CLPD budget for this purpose not to
exceed a total cost of $30,000 prorated by the population of each City as
required by the Joint Powers Agreement for non-budgeted expenditures
Commissioner Swedberg stated that the cost of the consultant(s) is unknown and
fheref1""\re fhQ rOS1""\!J ,fi1""\.... nr1""\\VirloS f1""\r "....1""\f f1""\ Qvt"'oorl" as a ""1""\Sf ""an The a,...h ,.,,1 ""1""\C'"fC'"

may be far less than the maximum cap, but may not exceed the cap.
Commissioners expressed a wide range of views that included:
· The need to control costs that are averaging better than 1 0% for police services
· The lessor of the existing facilities needs to address health and safety issues
before contracting
· Who will the Commission turn to for legal advice on the lease?
7~
. Recognize that substation and other support facilities have been provided to the
police department
. Recognize that this motion is a method to get each community involved in solving
the problems
. The funding formula, as it exists, is a problem for some communities
. Recognize that employees have put the Commission on notice of health and
safety issues and that no action is not appropriate
. The questions about mold have been previously addressed and dehumidifying
recommendations were made, but did the Department comply with those
recommendations for dehumidifying equipment?
. Health concerns are the first priority issue
If each City adopts the resolution the Commission will have additional 2003 budget
authority.
E. Letter for Deputy Chief Reference Intern Stipend
Action Item:
Although the Commission took no action on the request, the Commission directed
the Chief seek legal opinion and inform the Commission at the January 2003
meeting.

Re: Intern Stipend
At our regularly scheduled December meeting, I was requested to research the stipend
suggested for our summer intern Jon Forsythe.
Deputy Chief Makela contacted the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC) and spoke with
Senior Employment Attorney Patricia Beety.
Deputy Chief Makela shared with Ms. Beety circumstances surrounding Jon's internship.
Per Ms. Beety, a stipend for intern Jon Forsythe is legal and FLSA employment guidelines
do not apply. A copy of an e-mail sent to Deputy Chief Makela is attached.
I therefore respectfully request approval of check # 04210 to Jon Forsythe for his summer
internship.
Thank you.

research requested
As we discussed this morning, the FLSA does not apply to certain student internships, and
therefore a stipend paid to the intern would not be subject to the wage provisions contained in
the Act. The FLSA definition of employee is found in 29 U.S.C. 203(e)(1). The definition is
somewhat vague, but Department of Labor (DOL) opinion letters are more specific on the
issue. Main factors to consider are 1) the validity of the internship program as an educational
experience; and 2) whether the primary benefit from the relationship f!ows to the learner or to
the alleged employer. As a rule, the DOL will not consider students to be employees when
they are involved in education or training programs that are "designed to provide students with
professional experience in furtherance of their education and training and are academically
oriented for their benefit" (Wage and Hour Opinion Letter, Jan. 28, 1988).
Please let me know if you require anything further.

Chief Heckman, Karen Miller applied for the Centennial Lakes Police Reserve
Unit. I have completed a criminal history, driver licenses check and a back ground check.
The criminal history was clear and no violations on her driver license check. I spoke with
her neighbors and everything was positive. On 12-11-02 at 1900 hours Karen Miller had
an jllterview with the Police Reserves along with myself. The intervi,:w wenl well and all
plc:smt voted to accept her application in to the Reserve Unit. I'm reqlJestlng that Karen
Miller be hired as a Centennial Lakes Police Reserve. If you have any questions please
ask.

I am currently working with other agencies exchanging ideas on how best to make the
switch over to the ne vv mod01nsand what to do in the interim if something needs to be
replaced. We are Clh'ientJy working with a system called CDPD and will be switching to
GPRS as AT & T will no longer support CDPD. The switchover is mandatory in June
2004.

Chief Heckman, monthly activity report for December 2002, 01-04-
2003
This report addresses areas I oversee within the department on a day-to-day basis.
1) Vehicle Maintenance, all squads had general maintenance. We had a busy month
with squad problems. CL-4 was involved in a car deer accident and was repaired at
Midway Ford, CL-5 went to Polar Chevrolet for warranty work and CL-6 went to
Midway Ford for engine work. We were short squads the later part of the month.
2) Reserve unit. All is running normal, our thanks to all reserves for their hard work.
The reserves put hours in during December riding with officers, on patrol Fridays and
Saturday evenings. When they are out on patrol they check businesses and do residential
patrol. In December, the reserves put in 53 hours. December 11 th we had another reserve
meeting in which 'we continued review type training for squad use and radio use by the
reserves. We also conducted an interview with a new applicant. The reserves have also
read the department manual. We have a new application for the unit and Chief Heckman
will be speaking with the commission in January. I thank them for all the fine work that
they have done for the communities. My thanks to the reserve unit for all the hard work
they do for the Cities.

3) Safety committee, I'm working on procedure for officers to follow for the cleaning up
biohazard spills. I have finished a draft and now Investigator Blanck will review said
draft. h'1vestigator Blanck is still in the review process and will be done shortly.
4) Emergency/First Aid Equipment, I had to order replacement stock for the first aid
equipment and this should bring us in to the New Year. .
5) Safe and Sober. We were advised by Safe and Sober that the Centennial Lakes Police
Department ranked number 11 out of all the departments in the State of Minnesota that
were involved in the November seat belt challenge. My thanks to all the officers that put
100% in to this project. Just a note, over 350 departments were involved in the
November challenge. Again thanks to all for the hard work.
6) COP/Overview from officers.

7) Schedule. Corporal McCarty and I are working on the schedule together. We go over
vacation and other related scheduling items and make sure we have staffing on the street.
Corporal McCarty is in charge of printing and making changes on the schedule. We both
made this decision so as to make things work smoother and then only person does the
actual printing of the schedule. Corporal McCarty will address the schedule more in

Subject: [legislative] Rumors of a possible 2002 Aid Cut?
Rumors of a possible 2002 Aid Cut?
On Tuesday, Governor Pawlenty and Department of Finance Commissioner Dan McElroy will unveil their
proposal to balance the state's short-term $356 million budget deficit. Rumors about the content of their proposal
have generally focused on additional state agency cuts, tapping money set aside by earlier legislatures for road
projects and redirecting revenue available in other state funds. Late last week, an additional rumor began
circulating that involves city aid payments. Although to our knowledge, aids paid this past December cannot be
directly recalled by the state, we have heard that the state may try to recover some of the 2002 aid by asking
cities and counties to return it.
How would it work? The cut would actually be computed for the next LGA payment due in July and the market
value homestead credit payment due in October. These 2003 city aid payments come out of the state's 2004
fiscal year and would not help balance the short-term deficit. However, to accelerate the receipt of the aid cut, the
state would give cities a choice to take the July/October cut or allow the city to repay a lesser amount before the
end of the state's fiscal year on June 30. We do not know how much savings a city would be granted if they
decide to repay the cut early, but a 5 or 10 percent "savings" might be a possibility.
Of course, accelerating the cut in this manner would not directly help the state with its long-term deficit and there
is no guarantee that the legislature would not make a second cut in the aids scheduled to be paid in 2003.
However, the state has relatively little time to address the short-term deficit and this approach might help solve
the state's immediate problem.
If such a proposal is unveiled on Tuesday, city officials should carefully evaluate their options. As mentioned
above, there is no guarantee that the short-term deficit response will be the only cut in 2003 state aids. Ironically,
those cities with the least amount of reserves and therefore the least ability to cope with aid cuts would be the
ones least likely to afford the "benefit" of paying the aid cut back early and would therefore have a relatively larger
aid cut in July.
Stay tuned and watch for the announcement of the Governor's short-term deficit plan on Tuesday.
