2006 Parks & Recreation Committee Bude:et
The Parks & Recreation Committee reviewed the Parks & Recreation Funds and Budget Proposal dated
August 15, 2005 which was prepared by Mr. John Meyer, Finance Director. Due to the timing of the
Federal Transportation Enhancement Fund Application submittal, which Mr. Meyer also prepared,
Chairperson Peterson worked with Mr. Meyer using the committee's previous budget and trail plan to
prepare the Parks & Recreation Funds and Budget Proposal. The Federal Transportation Enhancement
Fund Application includes links or connections to all of Parks & Recreation's proposed trails. The Parks
& Recreation Committee's budget needed to be included with the grant application so the committee was
not able to review it prior to submittal with the grant application.
This budget shows a $68,578 deficit if all projects are completed. The committee has requested an annual
funding of $25,000 from the general fund to supplement these projects. The grant applied for will require
matching funds of $ 146,000 as the city contribution. This will be 25% of the entire cost. The budget was
being presented to City Council at a Budget Work Session at the same time as the Parks & Recreation
Committee was meeting. The committee would like to recommend to City Council approving the Parks &
Recreation Committee's portion of the 2006 Budget.
Motion was made by Chairperson Peterson, seconded by Committee Member Seeley to accept the
2006 Parks & Recreation Committee Budget as prepared by Mr. John Meyer on August 16, 2005
and submitted to City Council at the September 7, 2005 Budget Work Session. All in favor. Motion
passed unanimously.
Centennial Youth Hockey Association - Use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park Hockey
Rink for the 2004-2005 Season
Ms. Laurie Powers, Outdoor Ice Coordinator for the Centennial Youth Hockey Association (CYHA), sent
a request to the committee regarding the use of Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park ice rink for the 2005-2006
hockey season. CYHA would like to use the rink for outdoor ice as they have in the past and are
requesting extended dedicated hours. CYHA is also requesting the rink for dry land training starting in
October, after tryouts and teams are placed, and continuing until outdoor ice is available or weather
permits. CHY A used the facilities for dry land practice during the 2004-2005 season.
20f5
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes September 7, 2005
1. The committee discussed the use of the facilities for dry land practice and agreed to the usage
with the following conditions:
2. A schedule of usage, as well as a contact list of coaches responsible during the time it is being
used will be provided by the association.
3. There will be no use of the facilities after 9 p.m. daily.
4. The nets will be padlocked when not in use. The key to the lights and padlock will be supplied in
a lock box by Public Works.
5. The Centennial Youth Hockey Association will sign a waiver releasing the City of Centerville
from any liability and will take responsibility for any damage occurring while the association is
using the facilities.
The following recommendation was made by the Parks & Recreation Committee at the September 7, 2005
Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting.
Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Amundsen to
recommend to City Council approving the Centennial Youth Hockey Association's use of dry land
time with the use of the park lights at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park with the above conditions.
All in Favor: Motion passed unanimously.
The committee discussed the association's request for additional ice time and opted to keep the days and
hours the same as in the past seasons, allowing Centerville residents access to the ice with the exception of
8:00 - 9:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Amundsen to
recommend to City Council approving the Centennial Youth Hockey Association's use of the
hockey rink for the 2005-2006 season with a dedicated half sheet of ice from 7:00 - 8:00 p.m. and a
dedicated full sheet of ice from 8:00 - 9:00 p.m. Monday through Thursday. All in Favor: Motion
passed unanimously.
St. Paul Water Utility ProDertv on Centerville Lake
City Administrator Larson wrote the following memo to the Parks & Recreation Committee regarding the
property at 1601 LaMotte Drive.
At the last meeting, the City Council discussed the St. Paul Water property near Laurie LaM.otte
Memorial Park. You are aware that discussion has gone back and forth about the purchase of the
property and the Water Board seems to think its appraisal is better than ours. The City has looked for
grant funds to buy the parcel, but has not been successful in that regard
The Council passed a motion to prepare a purchase agreement to buy the St. Paul Water parcel for park
use at the City's appraised value. The Purchase Agreement will be prepared by the City attorney and
presented to the Council at the next meeting to authorize that it be signed and sent to the St. Paul Water
Board. The purchase agreement would not have any contingencies. It is expected that the cost will be
paid from park fees charged to developments. It is the Council's belief that the Park Board would concur
with the decision to buy the property. If that is not the case, please provide a response before the next
City Council meeting on September 14, 2005.
3of5
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes September 7, 2005
Per the Unapproved City Council Meeting Minutes from August 24,2005:
Mr. Meyer, Finance Director, suggested Council consider authorizing the City Attorney to present a
purchase agreement for the City's appraised amount of$285,000 to the Water Utility.
The Parks & Recreation Committee agreed with this decision to attempt to move forward with the
purchase of 1601 LaMotte Drive.
Snowmobile Ordinance
Chairperson Peterson requested a discussion of the snowmobile ordinance be added to the agenda. The
Planning & Zoning Commission held a Public Input Meeting on Tuesday, September 6, 2005 regarding
the possibility of banning snowmobiles within the City of Centerville. One resident was in favor of total
banning because of property damage done by snowmobiles. Approximately a dozen residents were
present to talk against banning snowmobiles stating many residents had moved to Centerville because of
the rural location and access to snowmobile trails. Chairperson Peterson stated there were 23 police calls
in the previous 2 years per Police Chief Makela, but enforcement of the snowmobile ordinance is difficult
because the Centennial Lakes Police Department does not have a snowmobile or the manpower to chase
down snowmobiles that violate the ordinance. The main problems are snowmobiles are driving on private
property causing damage, speeding beyond the 10 mile per hour limit and driving on church and park
property which is in violation of the ordinance. Chairperson Peterson stated that what transpired at the
Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting was to set up a subcommittee with residents as members to
review the snowmobile ordinance and try to come up with possible solutions to the problems and then
reporting back to the Planning and Zoning Commission. Mr. Tom Wilharber was present at the Planning
& Zoning Meeting and as a trustee of St. Genevieve Church stated the church was considering disallowing
snowmobiles riding through the church property to access Centerville Lake. This access has been an
approved access in the past. The subcommittee was to discuss different options to get snowmobiles
through town to trails and the lakes, as well as how to best get information to the public as to where they
could and could not ride a snowmobile in the City of Centerville. Chairperson Peterson brought this
information to the Parks & Recreation Committee as it was discussed at Planning & Zoning the possibility
of a south snowmobile trail along the temporary dirt road from Centerville Road passing through Laurie
LaMotte Memorial Park to the St. Paul Water Utility property on the lake which the City is attempting to
purchase. This would give snowmobilers access to the lake. It was suggested this could be blocked off
with fencing allowing snowmobiles minimal access to the property while still having a passage to the
lake. On the north side of town snowmobilers do have access to Peltier Lake by following the creek to
the lake. The DNR allows snowmobiles to ride waterways. A few residents complained that by
snowmobiling on the creek it brought the riders close to their homes as their property abuts the creek, but
the only way the City could control this would be to change the ordinance to say snowmobiles must keep
a certain distance from homes, such as 30', but this would also affect the snowmobiles on the lake.
Chairperson Peterson would like the committee to think about this issue as if the Snowmobile
Subcommittee and the Planning & Zoning Commission recommend a trail through the parks it will need
the Parks & Recreation Committee's input.
VII. UPDATES
Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park Plav Structure
This item was discussed under the 2006 Budget. If the budget proposal is approved by City
Council the committee will start work on planning a play structure for Laurie LaMotte Memorial
Park for the spring of 2006.
40f5
Parks & Recreation Committee
Meeting Minutes September 7, 2005
Frozen Fete des Lacs - Parks & Recreation Possiblv Takine Over Fridav Nieht Event of
Skatine. Horse Drawn Havride & Bonfire
The Parks & Recreation committee is willing to take over this event and discussed the pros and
cons of having the event at the Anoka County Regional Park or Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park
and whether to try and tie in with the Car Races on Ice or the Lion's Annual Ice Fishing Contest.
Ms. Stephan explained EDC tied in with the Car Races on Ice in 2005 expecting a larger turnout
of people when actually the Lion's Ice Fishing Contest drew 1,500 people to the lake in 2005 and
there was minimal attendance at the Frozen Fete des Lacs events from those involved in the Car
Races on Ice. The EDC had decided in 2006 to tie in with the Lion's Ice Fishing Contest as it
was more of a family event. Mr. Greg Kieselhorst, Centerville Lions, has contacted the City
inquiring as to the dates of Frozen Fete des Lacs 2006. Ms. Stephan will find out what the
tentative dates are for both the Car Races on Ice and the Lion's Annual Fishing Contest and put
this item on the next Parks & Recreation Committee Agenda for further discussion.
Additional Liehts at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park
The additional lights have been installed for the pleasure rink at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park.
Committee Member Seeley inquired as to what is being done with the sign that has been
damaged for Wheels Skate Park. Chairperson Peterson stated he has contacted Gator Signs to
repair the sign and has ordered plexi-glass to cover the sign once it has been refinished.
Federal Transportation Enhancement Fund Application
This item was discussed under the 2006 Budget.
Church of St. Genevieve Trail
This item was discussed under the 2006 Budget.
Pheasant Marsh. Phase Three - Trail
This was put on the Parks & Recreation Committee Agenda to discuss the trail plan the committee had
recommended to City Council in October of 2003. At this time the City Council stopped all further
development with Ground Development and Pheasant Marsh pending litigation so the recommendation
was tabled. Pheasant Marsh, 3rd Addition is now being discussed and the committee would like City
Council to be reminded again of what the committee's recommendations were. Ms. Stephan will supply
the City Administrator with the recommendation.
IX. ADJOURNMENT
Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Chairperson Peterson to
adjourn the September 7, 2005 Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting at 8:00 p.m. All in

TO: Honorable Mayor & City Council Members
FROM: Kim Stephan
SUBJECT: Federal Transportation Enhancement Fund Application Draft
DATE: August 4, 2005
The following recommendation was made by the Parks & Recreation Committee at the
August 3, 2005 regularly scheduled committee meeting.
Mr. John Meyer, Finance Director, made an appearance to discuss a Federal Transportation
Enhancement Fund Application Draft with the committee. The committee discussed the
advantages of the sidewalk connections being proposed by the grant and the concerns that these
sidewalks/trails tie in to the existing trail plan. Committee Member Peil questioned whether the
outcome will line up with the trail extensions planned on the St. Genevieve property. Mr. Meyer
assured the committee that the Parks & Recreation Committee's Trail Plan was reviewed when the
grant application was drafted and the final outcome would eventually connect all the trails and
sidewalks as proposed. Mr. Meyer did state however, that the sidewalk connection on the east side
of Centerville Road from Heritage Street to the sidewalk in front of Chauncey Barett Gardens will
probably not be possible due to the drainage ditch located on that property and the steep ditch
involved. Committee Member Peil asked for the time frame on the grant application. Mr. Meyer
stated it was due to be submitted by August 19, 2005 and would be going before City Council at the
next scheduled City Council Meeting. The decision process is lengthy and it would probably be six
(6) months before a decision was made by the Grant Committee. Mr. Meyer also stated that the
funds would not be available until 2009. One of the issues in the City's favor is that this particular
grant application connects all the trail systems, as well as the proposed County Road 14 Trails and
the Regional Trail.
Motion was made by Committee Member Seeley, seconded by Committee Member Peil to
recommend to City Council accepting the Federal Transportation Enhancement Fund
Application Draft as presented to the Parks & Recreation Committee as presented by Mr.
John Meyer, Finance Director. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.

TO: Honorable Mayor & City Council Members
FROM: Kim Stephan
SUBJECT: 2006 Budget
DATE: August 4, 2005
The following recommendation was made by the Parks & Recreation Committee at the
August 3, 2005 regularly scheduled committee meeting.
2006 Budeet
The Committee looked at previous budget information supplied by Vice-Chairperson LeBlanc and
briefly discussed the modifications that will need to be made before submitting the budget to City
Council. Due to the absence of Chairperson Peterson and Vice-Chairperson LeBlanc, the majority
of the items need to be tabled until the full committee is present. Chairperson Peterson discussed
the budget with Committee Member Peil prior to leaving on vacation and Committee Member Peil
shared his input with the committee. The concern is the Parks & Recreation Committee has limited
funds available to them in upcoming years with the city nearly built out and the end of Park
Dedication Fees. With the possible purchase of the property at 1601 LaMotte Drive, the renovation
of Tracie McBride Memorial Park when the old water tower comes down, the addition of trail
connections on the St. Genevieve property, connecting the Pheasant Marsh, 3rd Addition Trail to
Center Street and the desire to have a play structure at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park, the
committee feels it needs to request funds from the General Fund. The committee has not received,
or requested funds from the General Fund in 4-5 years and would like to request $25,000 annually
beginning in 2006. The $25,000 requested for 2006 would be used for a play structure at Laurie
LaMotte Memorial Park. The proposed budget will be supplied to the City Council following the
September 7, 2005 Parks & Recreation Committee Meeting.
Motion was made by Committee Member Peil, seconded by Committee Member Seeley to
request $25,000 from the General Fund to be transferred to the Parks & Recreation
Committee on an annual basis, with the $25,000 budgeted for 2006 to be used for a play
structure at Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park. The Parks & Recreation Committee will submit
a final budget proposal for the September 14, 2005 City Council Meeting. All in favor.
Motion carried unanimously.

Dear Mr. Larson:
On behalf of the City of Centerville and the Parks & Recreation Committee we would like to thank you
for your past support of our park improvements. We are planning an upgrade to Laurie LaMotte
Memorial Park in 2006. This park currently does not have a play structure to compliment the skate
park, ball fields and soccer fields. The project cost is approximately $45,000 and would include the
purchase of equipment, base, border and volunteer labor for installation. The committee would like to
request $10,000 in charitable gambling funds from your organization. While recognizing the
limitations of your funding, any amount the Dead Broke Saddle Club could donate towards this
purchase would be greatly appreciated
Thank you in advance for your consideration of the Parks & Recreation Committee's request. If you
. nave any questions or comments, please feel free to call me at City Hall, 651-429-3232.
Sincerely ~

Rake for Lakes' Sakel
Autumn has arrived with its cool
crisp nights, bright days, and
falling leaves. Did you know that tree leaves are a source of phosphorus, the
nutrient that turns our lakes and rivers green with algae?
In natural settings, phosphorus in fallen leaves is recycled back into the soil. But in urban areas,
where much of the land is covered by pavement, tree leaves that fall or are raked into the street
loose phosphorus into rainwater which is carried to lakes and rivers through storm sewers.
Excessive algae growth looks bad, smells bad, and is no fun to swim or boat in. Steps residents
can take to reduce the runoff of phosphorus that spurs algae growth are:
· Be your storm drain guardian. Rake or sweep leaves from your street and storm drains.
· Compost leaves and grass clippings on location or at a community yard waste collection
site.
· Keep the street clean of other materials that contain phosphorus, such as grass clippings
and eroded soil.
. Keep shorelines vegetated

Dear Mr. Lorson:
Re: Regional Pork System Plans I Local Comprehensive Plans
In June 2005, the Metropolitan Council approved the 2030 Regional Parks Policy Plan. This is 0 newly revised and visionary
park system plan for the seven county metropolitan area. The plan will be implemented by the 10 regional agencies who
manage the regional pork system, which includes Anoka County.
I am forwarding to you from the Metropolitan Council the enclosed "Regional Park System Statement" sheet which outlines
the existing regional parks and trails in your community, and any future plans for additions or changes to the regional system
that might affect your local planning process. This information comes directly from the new 2030 Regional Parks Policy Plan.
As you might be aware, the Anoka County Parks and Recreation Deportment has also been revising the comprehensive county
pork system plan. The plan is scheduled for County Board approval In January 2006. The county is updating its park system
plan to be consistent with the Regional Park Policy Plan. To that end, the county has been working closely with the
Metropolitan Council in defining future trail and park needs in Anoka County.
In accordance with Section 473.864 of the Metropolitan Land Planning Act, all metropolitan area cities must review and
amend their local comprehensive plans to conform to metropolitall system plans including the Metropolitan Regional Parks
Policy Plan. The enclosed Park System Statement is intended to assist you in identifying and incorporating the appropriate
regional park and trail plans into your comprehensive land planning process.
Please tRke a moment to review the materials and forward them to the appropriate staff person in your organization. If you
or yout taff has any questions, please feel free to contact me and I would be happy to assist you. My direcl line is

Re: Regional Park System Statements
Dear Mr. VonDeLinde:
Section 473.864 of the Metropolitan Land Planning Act requires all metropolitan-area cities
to review, and if necessary, amend their entire local comprehensive plans and fiscal devices
and official controls at least once every ten years to ensure local plans and official controls
conform to metropolitan system plans.
Enclosed for your information are copies of the regional park system statements of the
applicable cities, townships and county that are within the jurisdiction of your park agency.
Please note that the final boundary ofa park unit or alignment for a trail unit will be
determined through the preparation and adoption of a master plan for that unit, in cases
where park system units are proposed to be expanded through boundary adjustments, or ne\\'
park/trail units do not yet have a master plan. Local governments are asked to \\lork \\lith
YOll in the master planning process, and in turn reflect the park/trail unit master plan as
appropriate in their local comprehensive plan.
If you have any questions about the regional park system statements, please contact Ame

Regional Parks System Statement
City of Centerville
Key Changes in the Plan
The 2030 Regional Parks Policy Plan adopted by the Metropolitan Council in June 2005 is the
metropolitan system plan for regional recreation open space with which local comprehensive
plans must conform. This system statement summarizes significant elements of the metropolitan
system plan and highlights those elements that apply specifically to your community. In addition
to reviewing this system statement, your community should consult the entire 2030 Regional
Parks Policy Plan, the 2030 Regional Development Framelt'ork and other pertinent regional
planning and policy documents to ensure your community's local comprehensive plan and plan
amendments conform to the metropolitan system plans. A PDF file of the entire 2030 Regional
Parks Policy Plan, the 2030 Regional Development Framework, the Local Planning Handbook
and other regional planning and policy documents of the Metropolitan Council are available
online at the Metropolitan Council's website:
http:/'\v\vw.metrocouncil,org/planningifrumc\vork/timeline.htm,
To meet the needs of the region in 2030, the 2030 RCRional Parks Policy Plan includes the
following changes to the current regional parks system.
./ Designate two existing county parks and three trails as "regional."
· In Washin!,rton County, Pine Point Park
· In Ramsey County, Tony Schmidt Park
· In Ramsey County/St. Paul, three regional trails - Trout Brook, Summit Avenue, and
Lexington Parkway
./ Acquire and develop three new parks. Search areas include:
· Northwestern Anoka County
· Empire Township in Dakota County. Please note that the Metropolitan Council approved a
park master plan and a boundary for the park has been established.
· Blakeley Township in Scott County
./ Acquire and develop seven new trails. Search areas include:
· The Crow River, in Carver County and Three Rivers Park District
· Both a north/south and an east/west trail traversing Dakota County
· An east/west trail traversing Scott County
· In Three Rivers Park District, a trail connecting parts of Baker Park Reserve; a trail
connecting Baker and Crow-Hassan Park Reserves; and a trail connecting Crow-Hassan and
Elm Creek Park Reserves
./ Acquire land within the current boundaries of 30 existing parks and four trails.
P-I
./ Acquire natural-resource lands adjacent to six existing parks and six existing trails.
To meet the needs of the region beyond 2030, the Council proposes four new regional parks or
reserves and three new trails be acquired. These parks and trails would not be developed until
after 2030, but the opportunity to acquire them will likely be lost if the lands aren't identified and
purchased before 2030. The goal is to complete the acquisition of the regional park system and
secure opportunities for future generations. Search areas include:
./ Parks - Miller Lake area and Minnesota River Bluff and Ravines in Carver County;
southwestern Dakota County; and Cedar Lake area in Scott County.
./ Trails - northwestern Anoka County; central to south Carver County; and Minnesota
River to Spring Lake in Scott County.

DATE: September 26,2005
Attached is correspondence from the City Council Packet concerning the Memorandum of
UnderstandinglCSAH14. This is an FYI to the Parks & Recreation Committee as trails are
discussed.
The following excerpt is from the September 14, 2005 City Council Meeting Minutes with City
Council's response.
City Administrator Larson and Council discussed the County's response to the draft MOU and
Council agreed Members are not ready to sign at this time.
Mayor Capra indicated that she does not agree that the City should pay more due to increased costs

Re: MOU
The "subject to negotiation with affected property owners" refers to that when we have
excess property from a total buyout that is surrounded or adjacent to a parcel that we
also need to buy property from, we many times perform an "equal exchange". This is a
common practice and we're actually doing this now on the 14 project in Lino Lakes on the
other side of the interchange.
If you need a definitive answer on the crosswalk today, the answer is "No" there will be
not be any other crosswalks other than at Centerville Road and 20th Avenue. We will,
how~ver, as a part of final design evaluate any other intersectio0s the city wants to .
consider, but short of performing that analysis, the answer is "No". I do not have any
resources to commit to this effort outside of consultants to perform this analysis at this
time.
Because the cost of the entire project has risen substantially and the federal funds are
fixed, every entity in the project that would qualify for federal funds now has a higher
local share. The county's cost in this project is becoming very substantial as well for
all of the other items in this project and we are concerned about our ability to fund our
share of the project. I've left a voicemail message for John VonDeLinde our Parks
Director, but don't anticipate that they have any funds budgeted for participation in this
proj ect .
I will let you know if I hear anything differently.

Doug & Lyndon:
I have reviewed your letter and noticed that you slipped in an additional condition on the
transfer of property. You now include: "subject to negotiation with affected property
owners." This isn't going to be acceptable.
You need to give us a definite answer on the crosswalk issue. As I said at the meeting, if
you can figure out what is needed for a new interchange that will not be constructed for
years, you certainly should be able to determine now if a crosswalk can be included. This
is an important issue.
The cost of the trail is substantial. It may be that the Council will decide it is
unaffordable at this time and will ask to remove it from the plan. Originally the cost to
Centerville would have been 20%, now it
is almost 55%. This trail connects to Hugo and Lino Lakes and should
be part of the regional trail system. The best solution may be for the County Park
Department to fund this cost and get reimbursed from Metro Trail grants.

I plan to review all of the issues related to the MOD with the Council next Wednesday. If
you have any additional information or suggestions, please let me know before the end of
the day on Wednesday. Thanks.

Mr. Dallas Larson

City of Centerville

Centerville, MN 55038
Dear Mr. Larson:
This letter is in response to your letter dated August 10, 2005 that pertained to questions
on the revised Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) that I forwarded to you on July 29,2005.
With regards to right-of-way issues, we would define the term "uneconomic remnant" to
be a parcel of land that is not large enough to be buildable under current zoning regulations. For
example, if we need to purchase an entire parcel even though our highway right-of-way needs
are only across a portion of the property, we will keep the portion of the property we need for
highway purposes and dispose of the excess portion. Generally, ifthe excess portion is so small
that no reasonable building could be constructed on it under zoning regulations, then this excess
property will be conveyed to the City subject to specific negotiations with affected property
owners. If the excess portion of the property is large enough for a reasonable building
improvement, then Anoka County will remarket the property. In this case, we would offer the
City the rights to buy this property at appraised market value before we offer this to the public.
The second paragraph under the "Traffic Signals" section of the MOU has been revised
to show that the intersection of 21 st Avenue with CSAH 14 will operate as a "% -access"
intersection until such time that a new interchange at I-35E is constructed. The % -access will
allow both left and right turning movements from CSAH 14 onto 21 st Avenue in both directions.
Turning movements for both southbound and northbound 21 st Avenue onto CSAH 14 will be
limited to right-out only. Upon the construction of a new or partially new interchange at I-35E,
the access at CSAH 14/21 st Avenue will be limited to right-inlright-out only.
Determining whether or not the County would participate in a backage road between 20th
and 21 st Avenues can only be determined during final design of our project and after an analysis
of the construction staging for CSAH 14 has been completed. If there are cost savings to the
Affirmative Action I Equal Opportunity Employer
ivir. Dallas Larson
September 8, 2005
Page 2
County by having the backage road available for traffic, we would consider applying a portion of
these savings to the City's cost in constructing the backage road. Because we have not yet begun
the final design on the construction staging plan, we cannot commit to any actual financial
contributions at this time.
As shown on the enclosed layout, the medians on 20th Avenue will extend past the
property located at #7129 north of CSAH 14 and just short of the entrance located at #7091-7097
south of CSAH 14 as a part of this proj ect. While these are the extents of the medians under this
particular project, it should be noted that these medians are very likely to be extended with future
improvements to CSAH 21 or CR 54.
While the MnJDOT Traffic Engineering Manual and the Minnesota Manual of Uniform
Traffic Control Devices (MnMUTCD) are explicit in how crosswalk signage and pavement
markings are to be installed, there is little direct guidance provided on the placement of
crosswalks at locations other than controlled intersections (signalized or all-way stop) or at
school zones. It is my understanding that the City is requesting crosswalks at locations other
then Centerville Road and 20th Avenue. Crosswalk placement needs to be based on good
engineering judgment after considering pedestrian volume and generating sites, roadway speed
limits, and capacity/gap study analysis. The evaluation of potential crosswalks that the City
would like to consider will be done as a part of our final design process.
The County was not under the assumption that your enhancement grant application was
for urban appurtenances such as street lighting, landscaping, etc. With regards to funding the
trail itself, the County has offered to municipalities where trails have been funded by the city as a
part of the highway construction project, is to apply for Met Council Trail funds, and ifreceived,
to reimburse the city for their actual costs. Again the city would pay for the initial cost of
construction, but could be repaid at an undefined later date if funds became available. We would
agree to apply for these funds.
This project is escalating into a very expensive project and we are not extending side-
street limits any further than necessary to provide reasonable termini. Therefore, we would
extend construction on Centerville Road only at 100% City's cost. This is consistent with recent

BOARD OF- WATER COMMISSIONERS
President: Patrick Harris + Vue President: John Zanmiller
Commissioners: Matt Anfang + Bob Cardinal + Gregory KJeindI + Debbie Montgomery + Dave Thune
September 30, 2005
Mr. John Meyer, Finance Director
City of Centerville
1880 Main Street
Centerville, Minnesota 55038
Re: City of CentervilIe proposed purchase of Board of Water Commissioners
property at 160 1 Lamotte Drive
Dear Mr. Meyer:
On September 23,2005, you delivered a proposed Purchase Agreement (Centerville PA) along
with an earnest money check in the amount of $10,000 to Mr. Bill Tschida. The Board of Water
Commissioners (Board) did not, however, offer the property on the terms reflected in
Centerville's P A. It does not reflect the results of the meetings and negotiations that have taken
place over the past year. I have discussed the situation with Mr. Tschida and with the Board's
attorney, and determined that we will not be able to accept the earnest money, which is enclosed
and returned to you herewith, nor present this Centerville P A to the Board. The fundamental
flaws- in the Centerville P A are:
1) The purchase price is not what the Board offered. Centerville's PA sets forth a
purchase price of $280,000. Centerville appeared before the Board on May 10,
2005 to request that the Board lower its price from $322,000 to $280,000_ The
Board made it clear to Centerville that the asking price would remain the same, but
that a closing date and payment schedules could be negotiated. Centerville's P A
fails to reflect the Board's offer.
2) The required Ponding Easement and Raw Water Conduit Easement, which were set
forth in the Board's Purchase Agreement (Board PA) that was sent to Teresa Bender
on July 24, 2004, and then discussed, revised to reflect modifications to the
required easements, and agreed to by Centerville's attorney at a meeting on January
18,2005, are not included in Centerville's PA.

3) Centerville's PA specifies the delivery of a Warranty Deed at closing. The Board
delivers only Quit Claim Deeds in any and all real estate transactions, and this
term was also set forth in the Board's PA.
After Mr. Tschida sent a proposed PAin July 2004, he and the Board's attorney met with
Centerville's attorney in January of 2005 to negotiate the terms of the Board's PA. Though
Centerville chose not to attend the meeting, its attorney Jim Hoeft had the opportunity to raise
any issues Centerville might have with the Board's PA. This he did, and since that time neither
Centerville nor Mr. Hoeft indicated there might be any additional outstanding terms to negotiate.
Then, whenCenterville appeared at the May 10, 2005 Board meeting, the only issue it raised was
the purchase price. The Board made its position on that price very clear, but agreed to allow
Centerville an additional six months to secure financing and execute a purchase agreement.
The six-month extension has not expired, so this letter comes to reiterate that the Board is willing
and available to discuss and negotiate payment plan options and terms of the Board's P A. The
deadline does not expire until November 8, 2005, and ifCenterville wishes to discuss these
matters, please have the appropriate Centerville staff contact Mr. Tschida as soon as possible to
complete such negotiations.
Sincerely,
Stephen P. Schneider
General Manager
