TITLE OF ISSUE:
Centra Homes - Block 7 - Final Layout and Materials Discsussion
BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION:
Over the course of the last two months, City Staff and Centra Homes have engaged in design discussions,
resulting in multiple iterations of site layouts and conceptual elevations. The current layout and elevation
concepts were shared with the public during a neighborhood meeting on June 9. In general, much of the
feedback from the neighborhood centered around the desire to see less dense development of the site. The
current proposal of 27 units on 1.62 Acres equates to 16.7 units/acre. The site is zoned M-2, which requires
densities of between 12 and 30 units/acre. Staff is seeking direction as to whether or not to continue with the
current concept or make changes based on public input. If the council chooses to continue pursuing the current
concept plan, staff will present additional information regarding some design choices and their financial impact
(see attached information).
COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING:
$0 - $230,000; Sources to be determined
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
Work Session item only. No official action requested. General direction on Block 7 development is
anticipated.

Memorandum
Date: June 18, 2021
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
ity Administrator/Engineer
The city has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Centra Homes
for the development of the City-owned Block 7 Property in the Downtown area. The
(RFP), for the development of the propert
eir proposed contribution to the site
development costs and any commitments they were seeking from the city.
ment was to bear all of the development
costs with the exception of paying just $1 for the land and requesting a cap on
Streetscaping costs at $100,000. This statement was based on their proposed layout for
the project which featured 24 units, half of which faced east, the other half west, with a
central alley serving the homes from the rear.
Site Layout Discussion
As Centra Homes, city staff, the city
Council have explored various design alternatives over the past few months, we have
landed on a preferred concept. The concept is materially different from the proposal in
two ways:
1) There are 250 more lineal feet of internal roads and 10 additional parking
spaces
2)There are 3 additional units
The additional road and parking areas require additional investment, while the 3
additional units provide additional revenue. The net affect of these two cost factors is an
increase in project costs of $80,000.
Therefore, the developer is asking the city to agree to an additional contribution of
$80,000 if the preferred layout is used.
Building Materials Discussion
gn Guidelines discuss a number of issues
related to the design of building facades
(equivalent to our M-2 zoning). Some of the design considerations are:
Provide a diverse mix of materials, applied in a variety of proportions, exposures
and detailing within a block, or along a street.
Encourage durable, high quality materi
Siding is not allowed (vinyl, metal, wood) except as a complimentary use.
Encourage the use of mostly brick or comparable alternative; minimum
requirement of 50% of non-glazed wall area.
The guidelines are not specific about the desired finishes on non-street facing sides of the
buildings.
The proposed materials on the front facades of the homes include a variety of materials
and use vinyl siding as a complimentary use (making up less than 50% of the non-glazed
wall exposure). Discussion at the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council
level have requested that upgraded siding materials be used, especially on the front
facades of the homes.
Centra Homes believes that the use of vinyl siding as a complementary material is in
keeping with the Master Plan and Design Guidelines and will provide a worthy aesthetic
city wishes to see the use of upgraded siding (such as LP
Smartside, etc.), Centra Homes is requesting an additional financial commitment from the
city of $50,000 for the front facades or $150,000 for all sides of the homes.
Summary
Centra Homes is requesting that the city consider two design decisions and their related
cost implications:
Site Layout
Option Added City Cost
Original Layout $0
Preferred Layout $80,000

Option Added City Cost
No Upgrades $0
Upgrade Front Façade $50,000

Item: 2022 General Fund Budget and Property Tax Levy Discussion
City staff are looking forward to discussions regarding the General Fund budget for 2022
with the City Council. We are updating the known changes to the budget. These changes
take the form of signed contracts or outside agency changes over which the city has little
or no control. The items of which we are aware are shown below with their impact on
the budget.
As you can see in the table, there are a number of items that are still not finalized.

The above information does not account for any of the anticipated American Rescue Plan
(ARP) funds, which we anticipate receiving in 2022.
We have not yet gone through the individual department budgets in detail. We intend to
incorporate prior year spending and make some additional estimates of what needs to be
budgeted for each line item. There will certainly be additional changes as we proceed
with the budget through the preliminary adoption in September.
Staff is happy to discuss budget issues and answer questions at any time with council,
property owners, and residents. After this discussion, staff will bring back a full budget,
including information on capital fund expenditures for equipment, streets, and City Hall
parking lot improvements at the Work Session in August.
At this meeting staff is looking for general feedback from the City Council regarding any
potential revenue or expenditure changes.

IX. NEW BUSINESS
City Administrator Statz asked if the Council could take the next two agenda items in reverse order
1.
Administrator Statz noted that last week there was a joint meeting between Council, e thPlanning
and Zoning Commission, and the EDA to review two proposals for development of the City owned
property known as Block 7. The Planning and Zoning Commission had voted unanimously to
recommend to the City Council that the City move forward with Centra Homes for their concept
for 24 row-home style townhomes. He stated that staff is asking the Council to direct staff to
negotiate a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for this project based on the proposal
submitted by Centra Homes.
Attorney Glaser explained that the reason that a MOU would be the next step in getting the project
off the ground and to ensure that it meets the prer
Administrator Statz explained that an MOU also
that says the City is ready to negotiate, in good faith, in an exclusive manner for a period of time
while allowing them to do their due diligence and start digging into the details. He noted that Mr.
Dave Pattberg and Ms. Carla Dunham from Centra Homes are in attendance if there were
questions.
Mr. Pattberg, CFO, Centra Homes, explained that they are excited for this opportunity and to take
the next step in this process in working with the City to have a successful project on Block 7.
Council Member Lakso asked if there was a summary of the initial feedback from the
neighborhood. She stated that she would like it to be considered and put into the record because
she remembers some of the feedback that has come in from previous projects.
Administrator Statz noted that no neighbors had commented at the meeting. He noted that he had
only received one (1) e-mail following the meeting last week and it contained positive feedback.
Council Member Koski stressed the importance of having clear communication regarding this
project and allowing as much participation from the neighborhood as possible. He asked about
the duration of the MOU and asked if it would be 90 days.
Administrator Statz noted that they will work together with the developer for an appropriate
duration period.
Mr. Pattberg noted that 90 days may be a bit tight because they would like to hold a neighborhood
meeting but they would like to have the architectural plans further along before the meeting so
they can show people what they will see. He stated that they can talk through those details with
staff on the desired duration of the MOU.

Council Meeting Minutes
February 10, 2021
Council Member Koski stated that he was very happy to hear that Centra Homes is planning to
work with the neighborhood. He asked when the project would be expected to be completed.
Mr. Pattberg stated that he expects that it will be 2-3 years before the last house is built and closed.
Mayor Love asked when the first home was expected to be built.
Mr. Pattberg explained that the entitlement timeline can take a bit of time but they are hoping to
get the grading and utilities done in 2021. If there are no hiccups in the process, they could have
the first home completed by the end of 2021.
Mayor Love noted that he is very happy that this project is able to move forward without TIF and
is excited about partnering with Centra Homes. He stated that he personally felt the apartment
building was a better overall project for the City as a whole, even though the neighbors in the area
did not support that idea. He stated that he
forward with this product, so he is in full support of the Commission and their guidance. He stated
that he is extremely happy that there will be development on land that was been vacant for a very
long time.
Administrator Statz gave a brief overview of the proposal, what the MOU will be based on and
reviewed some of the terms that will be included in the MOU including: developer to pay 100%
of all City fees; 100% of utility relocation costs; 100% for paying fair share of assessment; and
will cover up to $100,000 of streetscape costs.
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Lakso to Direct Staff to
Draft a Purchase Agreement and a Memorandum of Understanding with Centra Homes
based on their proposal for the redevelopment of Block 7.
Council Member King asked about the building layouts and if they would be connected or separate.
Mr. Pattberg explained that there will be 6 units per building and a total of 4 buildings, which
makes for a total of 24 units.
Council Member King asked how the figures would be affected if this project takes three years to
complete.
Administrator Statz noted that this is a good question and will need to be taken into account and
written into the MOU. He stated that there may be some language added that would include the
possibility of some reasonable adjustments to things like sewer and water fees or park dedication
fees.
Council Member King encouraged thoughtful placement of the first building in case there is a
downturn in the housing market. He questioned what the ballpark prices would be for the units.
Mr. Pattberg explained that their current vision is to put up the first building in the most northern
portion of the lot that faces Centerville Road. He stated that in order to meet the 80% Area Median

voted in favor. Motion carried.
Mayor Love welcomed Centra Homes to the City and noted that he is looking forward to working
with them in the future.
st
2. Targeted Picketing Ordinance (1
Administrator Statz noted that the Council had discussed this at a few work sessions. He noted that
st
this is the 1 Reading of the ordinance and the intent is to have a 2nd reading, so if there is general
support today, it will also be on the February 24, 2021 Council Agenda for final approval, adoption,
and publication. He gave a brief overview of the background on this proposed ordinance and the
desire to keep the language the same as other cities. He explained that the impetus for the
ordinance is to prevent picketing that is menacing or problematic for residents or their neighbors.
He stated that it would also pr
residents not feeling comfortable in their own homes, and being fearful about where they live. He
st
stated that they feel that this does not prevent people from expressing their 1 Amendment rights
in areas that are more public and non-residential in nature within the community.
Attorney Glaser noted that there is a complex background in Constitutional law that supports the
language that is included in the ordinance and would echo Administ
change the language as it has been presented. He explained that the goal of the City is to allow
e police department may not have the ability
to control crowds when they get out of hand, which is what was seen recently in Hugo. This
ordinance is really meant to address the potential menacing aspect of picketing and protesting in
front of an individual home and noted that it closely mirrors State Statute and also noted that
Section 1, Subs.3 is the section that is unique to cities.
Mayor Love noted that he wanted to apologize if he had offended anyone during the work session
with the fictitious nature of his comment. He explained that he had actually been thinking of his
it to be taken out of context.
Council Member King questioned what would happen if somebody would be walking, standing,
marching, but were not yelling or using a megaphone and instead, just talking or just quietly
carrying a sign and not being menacing.
Attorney Glaser stated that the Supreme Court asks if the restrictions to limit speech fit in the
proper time, place, and manner. He noted that sometimes there is not a bright line test that clearly
shows people have crossed the line. He explained that it usually ends up being what is called the
totality of circumstances and a judgment call is made based on the facts that are in front of them.
He stated that the purpose of this is to say that of the time, place, and manner restrictions, there is
something special about a home which is what this ordinance addresses.
Page 6 of 10
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 10, 2021
There was discussion about the expectation of privacy; content of the signs, even if they are calm
and quiet; picketing that has happened in the area; expression of public speech; and times when a
permit may be necessary for a demonstration with a large crowd.
Council Member King shared the one example he can think of where he has seen picketing was in
White Bear and noted that he is afraid that this is instituting an ordinance that unnecessary He
stated that he does not support the ordinance.
The Council discussed various scenarios of protesting and picketing in a fashion that is going
neighborhood to neighborhood in a way to get people riled up, but is not necessarily targeting one
person or residence.
Attorney Glaser noted that the above scenario may not be a violation of this ordinance.
Council Member Lakso stated that she sees this as a tool in the toolbox that will allow the speech,
but takes into account public safety. She stated that, however, she would honor, to some degree,
the reason why people want to picket and protest in
a bit with this decision. She explained that she likes that there is another layer of protection but is
unsure it will help the City and noted that she is sensitive to what was previously discussed. She
stated that graphic signs are not threatening, but breaking windows would be. She noted that she
hears the points that Council Member King is making, but she is still unsure how she feels and
looks forward to hearing from the rest of the Council.
Council Member Koski clarified that this ordinance affects residential areas and not businesses.
He stated that freedom of speech is one of the great things about this Country. He stated that he
would like to balance freedom of speech with public safety which will be tough. He stated that he
would support the resolution the way it is written because it is for residential areas and does not
Mayor Love stated that he believes one of the most important pieces of this for our community is
the police department. He stated police department is strong and has a very good
culture. He explained that he has had a conversation with the Police Chief about this situation and
the Chief shared that he has the goal of leaving every situation better than it was when they got
there and also to build relationships in every situation. He stated that there was a situation that
e neighbors felt unsafe in their own homes. This
ordinance does not stop any one from picketing or protesting but does put a tool in the police
can utilize in our community to ensure people do
not feel threatened in their own homes. He stated that he is very supportive of this ordinance
st
because it does not take away 1 Amendment rights but ensures residents feel safe in their homes.
The Council discussed the situation in Hugo and existing laws that stop that type of activity
because they were blocking the streets and the sidewalks. There was discussion about police
training and existing laws for trespassing and blocking traffic.
Council Member King reiterated that he feels that this is an ordinance that is not needed because
of the existing laws and feels that it is just responding to the times. He questioned why this
resolution was needed if the other laws are already in place.

Council Meeting Minutes
February 10, 2021
Mayor Love stated that he thinks Council Member King is asking for an explanation of how this
ordinance strengthens what the City already has in place.
Attorney Glaser stated that he thinks this can be looked at by using the example brought up earlier
with the situation in Hugo. He stated in that group of people, there were those violating other laws,
such as blocking a roadway, but some were not and were lawfully on a sidewalk. He stated that
there will be individual circumstances where someone is not violating the other laws and this one
would come into play. He stated that this is a law of last resort and shared examples of protests
where there were literally lawyers there guiding the protesters to ensure that they were not breaking
the law. He stated that not every single incident will invoke another law and this resolution is the
patch that can go over that hole.
Mayor Love noted that there will be another reading of this ordinance before action is taken.
X. COUNCIL/ADMINISTRATOR ANNOUNCEMENTS
1.
Administrator Statz stated City Hall is taking shape and the Council Chambers is looking very
nice. He noted that staff is close to being moved into their new office space and reminded the
Council that City Hall is not open to the public. He noted that there are a number of volunteer
opportunities associated with summer activities that are still planned. He stated that there is a
farmers market called Main Street Market that will happen in July/August as well as a full slate of
Music in Park events. He stated that they are looking with an optimistic view for the summer with
the hope that there will be a robust set of events through the Parks & Recreation Committee.
Mayor Love asked Administrator Statz to comment on the illegal burning he mentioned in his
report.
Administrator Statz stated that there has been a resident who has had a number of issues with
accumulating junk on their property and has been burning miscellaneous garbage. He noted that
the City ordinance requires that backyard campfires utilize clean, dry wood only.

Board approved a number of upgrades to the building such as coating of the glass
and lighting following a recent incident.

IV. PUBLIC COMMENT
Larry Jiles, Jr., new tenant of the former Vincen
catering company that offers unique curb-side and delivery services that provide gourmet food to
homes at an affordable price. He noted that they attempt to use all natural and organic ingredients.
He stated that he has reviewed the 2040 Comprehensive Plan and feels there are a lot of benefits
he can bring to the community that will match the goals of the Plan. He stated that he can help
enhance neighborhood engagement with a small-town family café that specializes in breakfast
food as well as home-style cooking. He stated that he is interested in 1695 & 1691 Centerville
Road for such a café.
Administrator Statz asked Mr. Jiles to share how people can get in touch with him.
Mr. Jiles stated that on Facebook, they post their menu daily and people may also look at
www.chefhothands.com. He noted that they take walk-in orders as well as phone orders. He stated
that orders will take between 15 and 20 minutes to prepare. He stated that they also offer delivery
service, that is similar to Door Dash or Grub Hub but will save the customers a few dollars because,
other services upcharge the customers by about 28%. He stated that it is fine dining delivered to
your home and explained that they take pride in how they put the food in the box, so when you sit
down to eat at home, it is like you are sitting in a restaurant.
Council Member Mosher asked for more details on the café that Mr. Jiles was considering opening.
Mr. Jiles stated that it would be similar to a Keys Café, and would have an outside patio deck
seating area on the back side in order to take advantage of the lake. He stated that he is still

City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
working on the parking issue and is hopeful that they may be able to work something out with the
school in order to use their lot in off hours in addition to off-street parking.
Council Member Lakso thanked Mr. Jiles for his investment in the City. She noted that he is
getting noticed and expressed her appreciation for the energy he has brought to both the meeting
and the City, especially the Santa during Christmas time.
Council Member Koski thanked Mr. Jiles for coming to the City meeting and contributing to the
community. He asked what attracted him to the City.
Mr. Jiles stated that he grew up in the area, moved to Hugo when he was 14, graduated from White
Bear Lake High School, and bought his first house in Centerville. He stated that he was driving
down County Road 14 making a delivery in Lino Lakes, saw the sign that the space was for lease
and felt it would be perfect because Centerville still has the small town feel and his desire is not to
have a big enterprise, but a nice small-town café. He noted that he has a menu item coming with
wild rice that is harvested in Centerville in tribute of the Dakota Indians and French Canadians
came in to harvest the wild rice.
Council Member Koski stated that this idea sounds terrific and would echo Council Member
He asked about his background and experience.
Mr. Jiles noted that he has not owned his own business before but has opened a lot of restaurants
and listed some of the restaurants that he has been involved in.
Council Member Koski stated that he also loves this idea and thinks the location would be perfect
for this purpose. He stated that he loves the idea of having a balcony that takes advantage of the
lake, yet still keeps the small town feel with this destination business.
Mr. Jiles stated that he would like Centerville and his café to be considered the hidden jewel.
Council Member King welcomed Mr. Jiles and noted that he lives very near him and encouraged
him to keep on going.
Mayor Love welcomed Mr. Jiles to the City and stated that the entire Council wishes him the best
of luck in prospering his business. He asked if there were any other members of the public who
wished to address the Council.
There were no additional public comments.
V. APPOINTMENTS/PRESENTATIONS
City Administrator Statz introduced Misters Tom Dunn, Kevin Kane and Tim Edminson of M
Health and noted that Co-Chief Kathy Peil was also present.
Page 4 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
Mr. Edminson gave an overview of the previous eight (8) months of ambulance service in the City.
He noted that they had taken over on June 1, 2020 and despite some ups and downs, he feels that,
overall, it has been going really well. He noted that they have responded to 2,510 calls which is
about 10 responses/day. He reviewed the data surrounding mutual aid, transports, codes for acuity
of responses, and response times.
Administrator Statz asked if M Health knew where Allina was at in terms of response times before
they took this over on June 1, 2020 in order to do a comparison.
Mr. Edminson stated that North Memorial did not provide that information to them and noted that
he really only saw quarterly or annual data from them, but noted that the response times that M
Health has are well under what they had reported.
Mr. Edminson reviewed more of the data figures for Centerville and noted that while there is
always room for improvement, they feel their numbers are very respectable. He reviewed a map
that represented their entire service area and explained how they decide where their trucks will be
posted throughout the day, based on their data.
Kevin Kane, Operations Supervisor, gave an overview of some of the relationships they have built.
He noted that he offices out of Forest Lake, so he is dedicated, full-time to the area. He stated he
connects with the City leaders, such as Fire Chiefs, Police Chiefs, and other city officials on a
monthly basis and takes a deeper dive into the type of data that Mr. Edminson just reviewed. He
stated that some of the things doing a deeper dive has enabled is cross-training to help with EMS,
cardiac arrest management and just to strengthen the relationships on both sides. He stated that
Lakes/Fete des Lacs. He stated that they are
looking forward to being part of the public outreach to show who they are and make sure kids
know they know that ambulances are not always a scary thing.
Council Member Mosher asked what an Omega call was from the data table.
Mr. Edminson stated that it is a situation where there was no reason for the person to call an
ambulance because they should either take themselves to the hospital, or not go to the hospital at
all. He stated that in his experience, it is a rare call.
Council Member Lakso thanked them for their presentation and noted that it is always good to see
data and thanked them for taking care of the citizens.
Council Member Koski stated that it was nice to see the data and asked how it was working out
Mr. Kane stated that they use the fire hall as one of their posting locations which allows the crew
to get out of the truck, go inside and stretch their legs a bit.
Council Member King asked for a typical scenario for examples of
scenario when there is a 911 call with the Police Department, Fire Department, etc. all at the same
call, arriving, etc.
Page 5 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
Mr. Kane explained that everyone essentially gets the call at the same time, but often times the
Police Department is first to respond, and then it is either the Fire Department or M Health on
scene.
Council Member King asked for an explanation of Basic Life Support (BLS) versus Advanced
Life Support (ALS).
Mr. Edminson stated that BLS is EMT trained level staff on the ambulance who are able to do
quite a bit in a 911 setting. The ALS would be a paramedic level that are able to administer
medications and do more cardiac monitoring than the basic level. He explained that all of the units
in the northern region are ALS units and have a paramedic on board every vehicle. He noted that
Mr. Kane is also a paramedic and carries paramedic level equipment with him if those services are
necessary when he is on scene.
Mr. Dunn noted that when M Health took over in June, they tried to keep their deployment model
very similar to North Memorial which was three (3) of advanced ambulances and then added 1
basic ambulance. He noted that as they started looking at the data, they made the decision to
increase the coverage and change the basic ambulance to a fourth advanced ambulance.
Council Member King asked for an explanation of Emergent and Combined from the data
presented.
Mr. Edminson explained that emergent would be where they are responding to the call with lights
and sirens and the combined data includes those that were non-emergent and did not use lights and
sirens. He clarified that for the Alpha and Bravo calls they do not use lights and sirens and the
Charlie, Delta, and Echo calls do use lights and sirens. He gave an overview of the trained
questions that the dispatchers ask in order to code the calls. He noted that after COVID settles
down a bit, they do offer ride-along opportunities so the Council could see, first hand, what the
crews do.
Mayor Love stated that one (1) of the areas wh
psychiatric care. He stated that he sits on a board for reimagining public safety on a national board
and one of the big topics of conversation is police response to psychiatric type cases. He asked,
from their point of view, as professional emergency service providers, the impact of having a
Police Officer on site in a psychiatric situation. He asked if it was a welcomed addition or
detrimental.
Mr. Edminson stated that in can go either way, but for the most part, for the safety of the First
Responders, a Police presence is definitely a needed resource to those type of calls because at
times, they are putting themselves into scary situations. He stated that there are times when a
Police presence can escalate the situation; however, he noted that he thinks they all work together
well. He stated that he knows that if the Police feel that their presence may be escalating the
situation, then they will back off a bit. He stated that they are training on psychiatric responses
and noted that they are working on numerous models throughout different cities they serve on how
they can better respond to these types of calls. He explained that one of the things that they are
finding is that when they get called to a psychiatric situation, they are in crisis, or near crisis and
it is difficult to talk them out of that situation at the time. He stated that in many situations the
Page 6 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
patient is transported at this time. He stated that they are trying to work on ways to get out and
interact with these patients prior to crisis in order to build a rapport which will help them do better
on those types of calls. He stated that they are utilizing their Community Paramedic Program to
see if they can get a different style of response, working in conjunction with Police Departments
and other First Responders to see what can be done to help those patients when they are not in
crisis in partnership with M Health
Mayor Love asked Co-Chief Peil about the fire study results that showed that one (1) of the
downfalls was that the City has a different EMS service from our sister city.
Co-Chief Peil stated that she sees no problem with having two (2) different EMS services for
response within the same Fire District. She stated that because there is mutual aid, they do not
always know who will respond and they could be from Allina, North Memorial, White Bear Fire
Department as well as other service providers from around the area. She reiterated that having
two (2) different EMS services between the two (2) sister cities has absolutely no detrimental
effect. She stated that building the relationship has been great with M Health because they have
completed training with staff, including the Police Department, on things like what they have on
the ambulance as well as where it is located and how it is stored, so things go more smoothly on
calls.
Mr. Edminson stated that he actually thinks having two (2) different EMS services in the area
works really well because there are conjoining areas like Hugo and Forest Lake, so they are able
to bring other resources from there. He noted that Allina serves the opposite end, so they are also
able to bring resources and both can provide mutual aid for each other.
Mayor Love thanked Co-Chief Peil and the representatives from M Health for appearing before
Council and answering their questions.
Administrator Statz asked if there were any outliers to the averages that were discussed. He noted
that Mr. Edminson mentioned that if there was a snowstorm it would take out three (3) of the
ambulances. He asked what they would do in a situation where it ended up taking 15 minutes to
get an ambulance to the location and whether they would do an analysis afterwards to see what
could have been done differently.
Mr. Edminson stated that they look at those types of numbers on a daily basis and investigate what
happened and whether it was due to things like a directionally challenged crew or incorrect
resources being sent. He noted that if they think they are a bit further away from a call, another
truck starts toward the location, but then they start calling the mutual aid providers to see if they
are closer and if so, they automatically give them the call.
Administrator Statz stated that when he looked at the data, there were four (4) mutual aid responses
out of 147 calls. He stated that he would also like to ask about dispatch time of an average of 5
minutes 26 seconds with the emergent and asked if that was from the time they received the call
from dispatch and whether it included dispatch time.
Mr. Edminson stated that those figures include when they start the call, not the dispatch time.
Page 7 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
Administrator Statz noted that one of the things they just learned with the fire study was that their
dispatch time is a bit concerning and thinks the average dispatch time was just over 3 minutes. He
stated that he would like to explore that in greater detail and noted that it was across both Circle
Pines and Centerville. He noted that he wanted residents to be aware that the 5 minutes 26 seconds
timeframe was not from the time they call 911. He stated that he would also like to point out that
the City is lucky that is has a choice in EMS providers and had overlapping options between M
Health and Allina. He explained that the City used Allina for a number of years who had
contracted out with North Memorial and the City has now switched to M Health. He stated that
the City is not obligated to remain with M Health and has the freedom to switch back if they so
choose. He explained that one other thing to point out is that the ambulance service does not cost
the City anything and is something that M Health makes from their charge for services to the
patient or their insurance company. He stated that M Health is paying rental fees for use of the
fire hall. He stated that he would like to have representatives from M Health report to the Council
at least annually and perhaps every 6 months.

VIII.OLD BUSINESS
1. Bond Sale
Mr. George Eilertson, Northland Securities, stated that the only action item related to the bond sale
is the resolution found in the packet along with a bond sale summary. He explained that this is
refinancing the 2013 Series Bonds. He stated that the objectives the City had was to restructure
debt to achieve reduction of debt service levy and to receive a debt service levy interest savings.
He explained that this morning at 10:30 a.m., they received financing bids from three (3) different
investment banks. The low bidder was United Bankers out of Bloomington at 0.99% for true
interest cost. He stated that after reviewing with staff, they have opted to proceed with the bonds
non-rated which he feels has worked well. He reviewed the overall savings of $69,011 which is
the equivalent of a present value savings of 5.28%.
Council Member King stated that he thought he remembered that when this was first brought to
the Council it was .67% which would have been a savings of $85,000.
Mr. Eilertson stated that this was a good observation and noted that there are a few things to
consider, the average coupon or average interest and agreed that earlier on, the average interest
rate was lower. He explained that over the last week and half the interest rates have slowly been
ticking up a bit. While the overall savings used to be a bit higher, the City still got a nice sale.
Council Member King asked if Northland Securities also took a cut of this money.
Page 9 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
Mr. Eilertson stated that there was a tightening of the fees in order to maintain a certain level of
savings. He stated that they are the municipal advisory to the City which means that they also
serve as fiduciary.
Mayor Love stated that the market has done some interesting things over the last few months. He
thanked Mr. Eilertson and Northland Securities for their work on behalf of the City.
Finance Director DeJong pointed out that for advanced refunding of bonds, there is a minimum
savings of 3%, which is State law. In this case, the City achieved a 5.28% savings which is well
above the minimum so he believes this is a successful bond refinancing sale. He stated that he
finances for the next seven (7) years.
Administrator Statz noted that the interest rate is a very difficult game to predict. He stated that
the Council does have the choice to reject these bids, but then there is also a gamble for the interest
rates whenever they decide to proceed.
Council Member Koski asked if the City could sell this again and try to get a better deal.
Mr. Eilertson stated that the bondsich means they cannot be sold
to get a better deal, but noted that they were callable prior to the due date.
Motion by Council Member Lakso, seconded by Council Member King, to Adopt the
Awarding the sale on February 24, 2021 and authorize the Mayor, City Administrator, City
Clerk, and Finance Director to sign all necessary documents to affect the sale.
Council Member King asked if this number was cast in stone. Mr. Eilertson concurred.
A roll-call vote was taken. Mayor Love and Council Members King, Koski, Lakso & Mosher
voted in favor. Motion carried.
nd
2. Targeted Picketing Ordinance (2 Reading)
Administrator Statz noted that his thought continues to be that if the Council adopts this, it should
remain in the exact form it is being presented.
City Attorney Glaser stated that he shares the same thought and if the Council was planning to
adopt this, he would ask that it be adopted in the form it is written
Council Member Lakso explained that after giving it more thought following the last meeting, she
is not sure how helpful this will be, but also does not think it will hurt anything.
Council Member King questioned if there was a chance of going to court over 1st Amendment
rights.
City Attorney Glaser explained that one of the laws on the books is a Targeted Picketing Ordinance
that contains two (2) of the three (3) provisions that are in the proposed Ordinance.
Page 10 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
Council Member King stated that he meant that if the City did not have a Targeted Picketing
Ordinance, if the laws that are currently in place in relation to things like, trespassing, blocking
roads, or nuisance types and there is a police response, would there be a chance to go to court in
violation of 1st Amendment rights.
City Attorney Glaser stated that someone could use that as a defense.
Council Member King questioned what cities have lost cases under that defense.
City Attorney Glaser stated that he does not know off hand, because it is a trial defense, so he
would have to do some legal research. He stated that he suspects that there will not be a lot of case
law out there that relates to this scenario.
Council Member King stated that he thinks this is addressing something that very rarely happens
and is just creating another ordinance. He asked how the Police Department would be trained so
they do not get in trouble with 1st Amendment rights. He reiterated that he does not understand
why the City would take this action and expects there to be more stuff coming down the road with
HB-455 and hopes that it will not make it through the Senate.
Statz which is something that the League of Minnesota Cities is working on. He stated that once it
receives final approval, it will be shared broadly because Targeted Picketing is becoming more
common. He stated that some of the incidents that have happened throughout the State have been
pretty scary. He stated that that was one of the reasons that sparked the conversation in the City
along with their conversation with the Administrator from Hugo who shared that they wished that
they had a few more things on the books to help them handle the situation that arose there last year.
He stated that the Legislature is also looking at putting together some ordinances that may impact
the entire State related to Targeted Picketing. He stated that in this instance, this is something that
they have for their city and is something that can be put into place in order to give the Police
officers another tool in their tool bag to protect anyone who may be targeted, as well as the
neighbors around that individual. He stated that he agreed with Council Member King that this
has not been an issue in the City which has been a great blessing, but there is no guarantee that it
st
will remain that way. He stated that
or 4th Amendment
rights but does want to protect individuals in their own homes. He stated that he is full support of
this ordinance.
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Lakso, to Adopt
Ordinance #112, Second Series an Ordinance Relating to and Regulating Targeted Picketing
in Residential Neighborhoods.
Council Member Lakso stated that this may want to be revisited if something came up that was
more standardized and asked how this could be revised.
Mayor Love stated that the toolkit does not give direction on whether these ordinances are good
or bad and really just gives a playbook. He stated that one of the things that the City of Hugo said
was that they did not have a playbook of how to respond or things that they should have done or
thought about.
Page 11 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
Council Member King asked about the toolkit booklet from the League of Minnesota Cities.
Mayor Love explained that it is in draft form right now and is moving through their approval
process.
Council Member King asked about special training for the Police Department since this is part of
their toolkit. He asked if this would be a tool of last resort and whether they would enforce the
other existing ordinances prior to enforcing this ordinance.
Attorney Glaser explained that every year there are new laws on the books and there is training
with CLPD. If this is adopted tonight, then they would talk to the Chief and see how he would
like to handle this and believes that there will probably be some very specific training on this. He
stated that something like the handbook referenced by Mayor Love would be perfect as a training
tool.
Council Member King stated that he does not agree with the ordinance and thinks the Council
should table it since the League of Minnesota Cities has gone through the trouble to put together
all this information and feels it should be looked at before the Council votes on this.
Mayor Love stated that the reason he has access to the playbook from the League of Minnesota
Cities is because of his position with the League. He reiterated that it is in draft form and
anticipates that it will be approved at the next League meeting in March. He stated that it is a
playbook that for all intents and purposes is a for City Administrators and Police Chiefs to have in
place so they know how to handle these situations, who to reach out to, and who to contact whether
it is a permitted situation or a surprise picketing.
Council Member King reiterated that he would like to look at the League of Minnesota Cities
document before he votes on the item.
Mayor Love reminded the Council that the playbook is just a draft document.
A roll-call vote was taken. Mayor Love and Council Members Mosher, Lakso & Koski voted
in favor. Council Member King voted against. Motion carried. (4/1)
Mayor Love stated that when the document from the League of Minnesota Cities is finalized, he
provide a copy for Council review.
IX. NEW BUSINESS
1. Sale of Pick-Up Trucks
Administrator Statz explained the confusion with this item being added to the agenda and noted
that he had intended to pull it from the agenda, but the information was not removed from the
packet. He stated that he apologized for the confusion and noted that if the Council feels strongly
about it, they could vote to move ahead with the sale but explained that staff would like to wait a
few months, partially due to lingering COVID restrictions.

Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
Motion by Council Member Koski, seconded by Council Member Lakso, to Table the Sale
of the City Pick-Up Trucks.
Council Member Mosher asked if the numbers included in the packet were the financials goals of
what they wanted to get for the trucks.
Administrator Statz stated that it is an estimate just from some research that was completed on-
line. He explained that there will be an open bid type process that will allow anybody to bid on
them and will be left open for a week or so to give people the opportunity to inspect the vehicles.
He stated that they may not be able to allow test driving due to COVID. He stated that it is basically
an auction set up for the sale because the City will take the highest bid and is not just a first come-
first-served kind of situation.
Council Member Mosher asked about the older, small pick-ups and suggested that the City may
want to keep one of them around for any purpose.
Administrator Statz stated that the City purchased three (3) new trucks that replaced these three
(3) so there would be enough trucks for the summer help. He explained that the City is moving
towards all full-sized pick-ups.
Council Member Koski questioned the decision process on how the City determined which
vehicles would be sold.
Administrator Statz stated that the Public Works Director made the decision about what was best
to sell at this point in time. He stated that if the Council felt the City should get rid of different
trucks and keep the smaller trucks that is something that could be discussed.
Council Member Koski stated that he had thought the City needed to keep the plow truck.
Administrator Statz stated that there is a one (1) for one (1) replacement of the plow truck and this
did not increase or decrease the number of plow trucks that the City has.
Mayor Love asked about the process that was in place for removal of Centerville emblems.
Administrator Statz explained that the emblem is actually a magnet and noted that interestingly,
they attempted to put the magnet on one of the new trucks and found that the doors are made of
aluminum so it would not stick.
Mayor Love asked about the ongoing program for rotation and replacement and asked for a
refresher for the Council.
Administrator Statz explained that he, Finance Director DeJong, and the Public Works Director
had discussed this issue. He gave an overview of the CIP and the Capital Outlay Fund within the
General Fund that is separate from the fund balance which is reserved for bigger ticket items such
as trucks and park equipment. The trucks have been on the replacement list for quite a while and
noted that according to the schedule there are another three (3) trucks that will be coming up for
Page 13 of 17
City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2021
replacement that will be brought to the Council most likely mid-year. He stated that they have
been buying these trucks through the State bid pricing. He stated that there may be a chance that
the City can buy the trucks through the State bid process at a lower price and then turn around and
sell it a few years later for a profit. He stated that there is a rule that the City would have to keep
the trucks for at least six (6) months through the State bid process, so the City could actually sell
the trucks every year. He stated that staff will probably be presenting the fiscal benefit of more
frequent turn-around time on the trucks at a future meeting.
A roll-call vote was taken. Mayor Love and Council Members King, Koski, Lakso & Mosher
voted in favor. Motion carried.
2. Refund to Chauncey Barrett for Erroneous Water Bill
Administrator Statz stated that it is an embarrassing situation and explained that clerical error had
resulted in overcharging 10 times over the usage rate on one (1) of their billing accounts. He stated
that over the course of two (2) years, the City has charged them $10,000 over what they should
have been charged. He stated that they are due a refund and noted that the facility is owned and
operated by the County HRA which is funded by the City HRA.
Council Member Koski asked if the refund amount was just that or if it included any interest or
taxes.
Council Member King asked if they could just take the money out of the fund that they are already
holding for the City.
Administrator Statz answered that he did not think that would work and believes it would be a bit
messy. He reiterated that this was an embarrassing mistake.
Mayor Love stated that the City has owned up to the mistake and was glad that the City had
researched the situation to ensure that the mistake was not crossing over to other areas.
Council Member King asked which side had caught the mistake.
Administrator Statz stated that the City was the one who caught the mistake.
Motion by Council Member Lakso, seconded by Council Member Koski, to Issue Payment
in the amount of $10,033.32 to Great Lakes Man
HRA) for overcharges on Account # 01-00004396-00-01. A roll-call vote was taken. Mayor
Love and Council Members King, Koski, Lakso & Mosher voted in favor. Motion carried.
X. COUNCIL/ADMINISTRATOR ANNOUNCEMENTS

REQUEST FOR
COUNCIL ACTION
Agenda Item #Department: Requested Council Meeting Date:

TITLE OF ISSUE:
Presentation of 2020 Annual Audit
BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION:
Brad Falteysek, Partner and CPA with Abdo, Eick & Meyers, will present the annual financial report, required
management communications, and audit insights to the City Council. The city has received an unqualified
(clean) audit opinion on the city's financial statements for fiscal year 2020. This means that the audit firm
believes our statements to meet Generally Accepted Accounting Practices (GAAP), present our financial
condition in a fair manner, and are free from material misstatements. There were a number of discussions
regarding accounting transactions and financial policies during the audit. These resulted in some adjusting
journal entries, and one change was considered to be material. One invoice from Crawford Merz was posted in
February, 2021 but should have been adjusted as accounts payable at year end. That item was missed in our
accrual entries. Staff will look more carefully at accounts payable in the future.
COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING:
Budgeted funds in the General Fund, and additional funding from the Water and Sewer funds.
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council make a motion to approve the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
(CAFR) as presented. Following this approval, the financial statements will be published on the city's web site
and available for inspection by the public.
