President Hanzal then asked Mr. Knabe a series of six interview questions Question Number 1: Can you tell us what your qualifications are and why do you want to be a member of the EDA? Mr. Knabe responded that he has a vested interest in the community since he owns a business in a commercial property space here. He stated that part of his nature is that he likes to help people and values. He lives in Hugo, and moved his business to Centerville a little over a year ago. He feels that Centervill do not hear much about, and no one knows where it is unless you live within a 10 mile radius. There is not a lot of commercial property, but he f and he would like a voice in the types of businesses that come to town. He would like to see businesses that attract people to move here or want to spend time here. He also minored in property management in college and feels that his degree would correlate.

Do you foresee and problems with attending these meetings on a regular basis?

He said that as a business owner he tends to listen, take in all of the information and make a decision based on facts and good logic. He takes an approach with his employees that he feels he could use as a commissioner; even though a decision may not be popular, it is important to explain your actions and your reasons for them. ability to provide objective recommendations about grants and other programs that will Mr. Knabe answered than once he learns about the grants that are available, he thinks it will be a great opportunity to reach out and do what he can to help local businesses. Commissioner Giovinazzo briefly explained the city grant program to Mr. Knabe. Commissioner Weatherhead added that building esthetics is a big driver of the program, and they are working on banners and other place-making items downtown. The Commission has shifted gears since Covid- 19 though, and they have added the CenterStage program the Blue Logo Sign program to help businesses. Question number five: Please describe a time you worked as part of a team to reach a consensus, and what was your role in helping the team reach this consensus. Mr. Knabe answered that when he first wanted to start his agency, he was taking over for some retiring agents and his company wanted him to open in the Circle Pines area.

Executive Director Statz stated that he heard from Mr. Harchenko from the Apollo Group who had previously proposed an apartment building on Block 7. They have come back with a new proposal for row homes and presented it to the Planning and Zoning Commission. There is another business that is proposing a similar style development on the property, and we are going to look at that in January so we can compare the two proposals. He also had an hour long conversation with a third group who is proposing an apartment complex there and is looking at redevelopment property in the city.

Commissioner Wilharber asked about a proposed apartment building on the northeast corner of the city, and whether not the Planning and Zoning Commission had considered rezoning the lot.

President Hanzal asked Executive Director Statz about the gran building. Executive Director Statz explained that the program is funded by city funds that are held at the county. When he requested the funds from the county they did not like that the EDA was the conduit for this program. He has an appointment to speak to someone at the county, but it might be that this program has to be run through the council. He was spoken with Mr. Vannelli, who has been understanding. Discussion was had regarding the possibility of issuing Mr. Vannelli a check and reimbursing the EDA. It was decided not to, as the county may not release the funds if that was done. 1.

The program issued currency-like documents in several denominations that could be used only at local businesses. It was often given away as prizes at parks events, Fetes des Lacs and similar occasions. Staff would like to explore re-engaging this program. He suggested making the documents look like gift cards this time and getting the program up and running by the festival this summer. He explained that it would be given as a prize, redeemable at businesses in Centerville. A business could accept it, and then bring it to the bank for reimbursement. Discussion took place on various ways to set up the program, how to keep the cards from being forged, and how to ensure that they were spent in Centerville. Commissioner Giovinazzo suggested putting the logo of the business donor on the card so the person receiving it knew who the donor was.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Centerville Elementary School Centennial School District is in the early stages of planning an addition to Centerville Elementary. The addition would add classroom space to add one section to each grade. Architects working with the district are looking to fill in some of the courtyard space on the west side of the building and extend the building footprint to the north a bit, necessitating a move of the current playground equipment. With this configuration, the design will look to incorporate natural light into the classrooms that would otherwise have views to the courtyard.

Any costs associated with this will be borne by the school district.

Snow Plowing Reminders The City of Centerville maintains more than 26 miles of local streets and 36 cul de sacs and over 4 miles of trails. It takes the city crew about 8 hours to cover all the roads in the City during an average snow event. City policy is to plow all 3 inch snow events. Starting times will vary depending on storm size, expected amounts and time the storm is expected to pass. Our first priority is to clear the main roadways and then the secondary streets. Paths/trails and parking lots are lowest priorit snow banks to create additional room for snow storage. When crews perform this work, they use their side wing plows to push the snowbanks further into the boulevards. They adjust the and grass. This is one of the reasons that we have an ordinance prohibiting landscaping and sprinkler systems from being installed in the public right of way. The public right of way typically includes about 10 to 15 feet of grass coming off the plow ends up back on the roadway. Here are some helpful reminders: 1. There are parking restrictions, no parking on City streets between 3:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. Centennial Lakes Police may ticket cars parked on the streets during those hours. 2. It is against City ordinance to place snow across streets. This is also a state law and a ticketable offense. 3. Garbage cans and recycling containers are to be placed at the end of your driveway. (NOT IN THE STREET). 4. Plow drivers are not allowed to plow private driveways. 5. Please remove all basketball and hockey nets out of the street and back into your yard prior to the plow season. 6. It is the responsibility of the homeowner to keep clear the sidewalk in front or alongside your residence. 7. Mailboxes. If a mailbox is actually struck by a plow, the city crew will make a temporary repair for the winter and then repair or replace in the spring. More commonly, mailbox damage occurs from the force of the snow moving off the end of the plow, or shifting snow banks. When this happens, the damage is not repaired by the City. NOTE: It is important for homeowners to shovel around their mailbox. When mailboxes get encased in the snowbanks they often break off as plows move past and the snow bank shifts. 8. On occasion, lawn damage may occur within the road right of way. If you contact the City in the spring, we will repair the area with black dirt and seed. This on occasion happens and is not intentional. Contact us in the spring and we will black dirt and seed to repair the areas. 9. Keep vehicles off streets until the street has been plowed curb to curb. Often, plowing takes more than one pass. 10. snow banks along the road. Drivers cannot see if children are in them. The Centerville Public Works Department wishes you an enjoyable winter and appreciates your help keeping your streets open and passible. Trucks The new trucks that were ordered almost a year and a half ago, are now in. STORMWATER/WETLAND LaMotte Park Stormwater Reuse System Expansion Work on the project is substantially complete, with a few odds and ends that may need to wait until the spring start-up of the system.

The project has been hyrdo-seeded. This should allow for good turf growth early next spring. Mail service has been switched back to normal delivery at permanent mailboxes. A credit against all assessments has been issued, since sod was initially planned as part of the project. Watch your mail for a letter outlining the specifics of your credit.
