VI. AWARDS/PRESENTATIONS/APPEARANCES
1. Senator Ray Vandeveer - Session Outlook
Senator Vandeveer stated that he was present to discuss the State's situation, get feedback
from the Council, and to hear the Council's suggestions. Some of the items Senator
Vandeveer discussed included:
Page 2 of 11
City of Centerville
City Council Meeting
December 30, 2008
Last year, the reserve funds got very low (a projected $400 million short for the
biennium ending June 2008). As a result, the government had to reduce Local Aids
and Credits, and Centerville took a hit on the Homestead Credit. A total of
approximately $271 million was cut from the budget, including the $110 million
for Local Aids and Credits, as well as many cuts in various other areas.
There is a ban on in-state and out-of-state travel for the Senate, which will save $1
million.
A $4-5 billion deficit has been projected. This may be the first biennium in 30
years that the State will spend less in the upcoming 2 years than in the previous 2
years. To avoid raising taxes by $1,200 per person, the Governor suggested an
option to restructure, consider selling some State assets, or consider leasing part of
them out to a private company (possibly St. Paul/Minneapolis International
Airport). Another option used by some other States, but not suggested by the
Governor, would be turning 35W over to a private company to operate and let them
take tolls from it.
Mayor Capra stated that there would be a $43,000 impact on Centerville's total budget of
$2 million, which would have to be made up in some fashion. She added that with fuel
costs down, it may soften the City's budget.
Councilmember Lee stated that Centerville did not get much Local Government Aid as
comparable cities and suggested that the Legislature look at this. This year Centerville
only received $22,000, and next year they will receive $0.
City Administrator Larson stated that Local Government Aid is given to the City and the
homestead credit is given to homeowner. He pointed out that these are distinctly different,
and they should be categorized differently.
Mayor Capra inquired whether there was any discussion about loosening some of the
mandates.
Senator Vandeveer stated that a lot of property tax is masked and used by the State to
accomplish other things. He stated that property tax is a more glaring issue with the
homeowners because it has risen more than the rate of inflation. Watershed Districts are
not State-wide and its members are appointed by counties, so they have very little
oversight. Once Watershed members are selected (but not elected), they can raise property
taxes, pretty much without limit. He suggested that Watershed budgets should be
approved by the counties in which they are located, and advised that he has submitted a
proposal regarding this issue. Senator Vandeveer commented that the State hides a lot of
programs behind property taxes and more transparency is needed to fix this.
Councilmember Paar inquired whether there was any possibly of basing property taxes on
income rather than property value.
Senator Vandeveer replied the assumption is that the higher the home value, the more
income the owner has, which is not necessarily true. The Senate has looked at some ability
Page 3 of 11
City of Centerville
City Council Meeting
December 30, 2008
to pay as part of the property tax and an amendment was introduced to talk about this in
the Senate but there is a real problem with people being taxed out of their homes. This is
one of the reasons for the Watershed proposal.
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers inquired whether anyone is working on the Green Acre
changes.
Senator Vandeveer replied that he is supporting a repeal of the changes that were made
because there were some problems with what they had done. He requested that changes be
allowed within a 2-year period. He stated, however, that repeal is not likely.
Mayor Capra inquired whether a number of bills they wanted to watch could be placed on
the internet.
Senator Vandeveer stated that it is very easy for citizens to follow the Legislature's actions
on: www.1eg.mn. He added that they are discussing another Minnesota miracle. The
purpose of this was originally to buy down the property taxes, and they are attempting to
locate more money to buy down property taxes.
Councilmember Paar inquired whether half of the budget goes to education.
Senator Vandeveer replied that about 40% of the budget goes to education.
Councilmember Paar asked why cities have to levy households for additional funds.
Senator Vandeveer replied the levies were taken off the property tax in 2001, which
reduced the taxes about 35%. In 3 years, that reduction was gone because voters approved
more levies. Senator Vandeveer stated he understands that, regarding tax, you should be
able to see it, know what you are paying for, and it should be "real."
Mayor Capra thanked Senator Vandeveer for his time.
VII. OLD BUSINESS
1. T.A. Schifskv & Sons. Inc. - 2009 Street Improvement Protect Award Extension
City Engineer Statz stated that the City has asked the low bidder to offer an extension. The
current deadline is January 27, 2009, and they would like this extended to February 11,
2009, to allow enough time to have a Public Hearing and make a decision.
City Attorney Glaser stated that the wording needs to be fixed so there is not a guarantee
that the low bidder will be selected.
a. Res. #08-039 - 2009 Street Improvement Project - Reschedule Public
Hearing
Page 4 of 11
City of Centerville
City Council Meeting
December 30, 2008
City Administrator Larson stated that the City Council needs to approve the
resolution. He stated that they had an exhibit with all the street names at the
hearing; however, this exhibit did not get sent with the Legal Notice to the citizens.
Mayor Capra suggested that they schedule a Public Hearing on January 21, 2009.
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers proposed that they schedule a Work Session on
January 7, 2009.
Mayor Capra suggested that they consider a 5- Year Plan at the Work Session. She
stated that they have new concerns about the economy and could also welcome the
new Councilmember.
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers suggested that the sweanng III of the new
Councilmember be done on January 2.
Motion by Council Member Lee. seconded by Council Member Lakso. to

throue:h 53. with the exclusion of the Ordinances in the Chapter 150 series. All in
favor. Motion carried unanimously.
3. Crystal Military Museum Request to Utilize 7087 - 20th Avenue to Restore 1950
Studebaker Fire Engine
Councilmember Lee stated that he did not think it was in the City's budget to buy parts for
an old fire engine.
Mayor Capra replied that she believes this would be limited to only smaller items.
City Administrator Larson stated that the City will need to set up an agreement with the
Crystal Military Museum regarding the details.
City Attorney Glaser stated that they do not want to pay taxes if the City rents this out for
money. He added that the Crystal Military Museum will need to have insurance and a
good contract. There should also be rules on what they will do to the fire engine, and what
the City will get in return.
Mayor Capra stated that the Museum would like a long-term relationship, but she told
them that for now the City is just looking at a temporary arrangement.
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers recommended that the Museum be asked to get a
501 C3 before the City works with them.
City Attorney Larson advised that getting a 501C3 will take some time to accomplish.
It was discussed that City Attorney Glaser and City Administrator Larson would corne
back to the City Council at a later date with a progress report.
4. Goal-Setting Work Session Scheduling.
As discussed in Item la above, this Work Session will be scheduled on January 7,2009, at
6:30 p.m.
Page 6 of 11

5. Abdo. Eick & Meyers Audit Proposal- 2009
City Administrator Larson stated that Abdo, Eick & Meyers have agreed to a 5% reduction
in fee, in exchange for another 2-year Agreement.
Councilmember Lee stated that the contractor's proposal seems reasonable.
Motion bv Council Member Lee. seconded bv Council Member Paar. to approve
another 2-vear Audit A2reement coverin2 2009 & 2009 audits. with Abdo. Eick &
Mevers. in exchan2e for a 5% reduction in the fee. All in favor. Motion carried
unanimously.
6. Bonestroo Request for an Additional $35.000 for the CSAH 14 Reconstruction
Proiect
Councilmember Lee stated that the lower amount was in the budget and inquired whether
the project could be continued without the increase. He added that, in private industry, this
increase would not be accepted.
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers stated that the City expected Bonestroo to pick up the
slack on what the City's staff could not do. The City would not have wanted the project to
go unsupervised. She stated that, although it is a substantial dollar amount, staff costs that
otherwised would have been expended on the project, would be covered by permit fees.
She added that request for an increase should have come before the Council a lot sooner.
However, the bottom line is that the City's interest was protected, and Bonestroo picked up
on what the City Staff could not do.
Mayor Capra agreed that Bonestroo spent a lot of additional time on the project.
City Attorney Glaser stated that the original proposal was based on City staff being there.
Since circumstances prevented this from occurring, the request for additional fees is in
line.
Discussion ensued.
City Administrator Larson stated that City staff could not be on the project because there
was a vacancy in the building inspector position, which it elected not to fill, and the City
had only one person to cover inspections of the storm damage repairs. At the same time, it
became clear the City could not rely solely on the County. He added that it is unfortunate
it got to the level it did but, if this request had come before the City earlier, it would likely
have been approved.
City Administrator Larson also stated that, when Public Works Director Paul Palzer shifted
over to building inspection, the revenue for building inspection increased, so the City has
benefited financially from him being there, rather than working on the project.
Page 7 of 11
City of Centerville
City Council Meeting
December 30, 2008
Councilmember Paar stated that he understands this could not be helped, but there should
have been better communication from Bonestroo regarding the situation. He added that, if
this would have been requested in June, he would have approved it.
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers suggested that the contractor be paid for only the
number of additional hours they worked in 2008. This calculation would show an
additional 12 hours per week for 20 weeks, which would equal an additional amount of
$21,600 for 2008. She stated that any overage in hours for 2009 could be claimed later in
2009.
City Attorney Glaser stated that this figure is an average only. He added that Bonestroo
would be cautioned to refigure ahead of time for 2009.
Motion by Council Member Broussard-Vickers. seconded by Mayor Capra. to
approve pavinS! Bonestroo $21.600 for the increased hours worked in 2008 on the
CSAH 14 Reconstruction Proiect. Motion failed (3/2). Council Members Lee. Lakso
and Paar opposed.
Councilmember Lee stated that he would like this to be discussed further at the January 7,
2009, Work Session.
VIII. NEW BUSINESS
1. Ord. #XX. Chapter 150
This was tabled to the next City Council Meeting.
2. Res. #08-040 - Providing for Adjustment to the Pay Schedule for Non-Bargaining
Unit Staff
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers stated that her recommendation would be to have no
pay increase for the Union or staff for the next cycle. She stated that the increases were
necessary before because of the Union requirement. However, from this point on, they
could have zero percent to make up for the past years when there should not have been as
much of an increase.
Mayor Capra stated that she would like to have a Work Session regarding how pay equity
is affected.
Motion by Council Member Broussard-Vickers. seconded by Council Member Lee. to
Approve Res. #08-040 - ProvidinS! Adiustment to the Pay Schedule for Non-
BarS!aininS! Unit Staff. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
3. Res. #08-041 - Self Administrate an Employee Benefits Plan w/Assistance From
AFLAC
Page 8 of 11
I _
City of Centerville
City Council Meeting
December 30, 2008
City Administrator Larson stated that this is a housekeeping action for a compensation
adjustment, which establishes the City's share for health benefits up $25 from the prior
year. This is good for the employer, because some employers pay 100% of healthcare.
This establishes a fixed dollar amount, and the employee will pay the balance. The
average raise in premium rates has been 12-20%. He added that this is only $25 per month
for each of9 employees, which totals $225.
Councilmember Broussard-Vickers inquired whether there were a significant number of
employees who participate in flexible spending.
City Administrator Larson replied that there is not a large amount of participation. He
stated, again, that this is a housekeeping action that the City has to provide to AFLAC.
Motion by Council Member Broussard-Vickers. seconded by Council Member Lakso.
to Approve Res. #08-041- Self Administrate an Employee Benefits Plan w/Assistance
From AFLAC. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
4. Anoka County Parks - Proposed Visitor Center - Determine Availability of
Watermain or Sanitary Sewer
City Administrator Larson showed the Council a map of where the proposed Visitor Center
would be located. He stated that Anoka County Parks will be applying for a building
permit this year.
City Administrator Larson inquired whether they will be provided with municipal services.
He stated that the City Council needs to decide what should be done and what Anoka
County Parks' portion of the cost would be.
Councilmember Lee stated that this would depend on the cost.
City Administrator Larson stated that if the building will be in Centerville, Centerville will
have a say in it.
Mayor Capra stated that the City would not want to spend money, other than staff time.
Discussion ensued.
Mayor Capra stated that this will be brought back before the City Council after they get
more information on the usage and the cost.
5. Mediation Services Request for Contribution for 2009 - $420
City Administrator Larson stated that the City has budgeted for this, but had to make
adjustments.

Councilmember Paar stated that Councilmember Lakso is extremely professional. He
noted that although Councilmember Lakso had another newborn, she still dove into various
tasks in an unbelievable way and should be commended. Councilmember Parr stated that

suggested they should come to Councilmember Lakso when they think they have no time.

confidence, and it has been a wonderful transition.

Minutes of Work Session
Present were Mayor Capra, Council members Jeff Paar, Tom Lee, Linda Broussard-
Vickers, and Ben Fehrenbacher. Also present were Mark Statz of Bonestroo & Assoc.,
City Attorney Kurt Glaser and Deb Barns reporter for the Citizen.
1) Meeting Protocol. Mayor Capra reviewed meeting protocol and reminded
members about the temptation to have separate conversations going during the
meetings. This makes it difficult to hear, especially for home television viewers,
and may prolong the meetings.
2) Chapter 150 Code amendments. City Attorney Glaser reported that final
adjustments to the proposed ordinance amending Chapters 150-155 should be
complete this week and that the material should be on the next Council agenda for
consideration.
3) 2009 Goals. The Council reviewed a draft of possible goals for 2009.
Item LB. City Hall addition will be a low priority and deferred until other
items such as sale of the old public works site and backage road property has been
completed.
Item I.F. Staff inspector. It was suggested that if a staff project inspector is
implemented, that it be through retraining the existing public works employees
and not by adding staff at this time.
Item ILA. Community signs. The consensus was that the design of
community entry signs should be fmalized this year and that easements be secured
for the various locations. Then the council could consider installing the first sign.
Item II.C. Downtown redevelopment. Everyone agreed that the downtown
redevelopment should be a high priority goal for this year. It was reported that
Beard Group is planning to make a status report to Council in February.
Item II.D., 1. Backage Road Project. It was noted that the project is complete
except to make a special assessment to the Sheehy property and to sell the
backage road property. The consensus was that the city should not rush to sell the
property, as a proposed development to the east in Lino Lakes, if successful
would substantially enhance the value of the city property. The city needs to
decide on a street name and then plat the property.
Item III.D, Plan for reductions in State revenue. The city expects to lose
between $20,000 and the entire $60,000+- in Market Value Homestead Credit.
Staff believes that the reduction can be absorbed with minor impact. The fmance
director included a potential $35,000 revenue loss in the budget.
The council felt that expense reduction measures may need to be
implemented. Deb Barnes of the Citizen asked that her newspaper be considered
as the official paper for 2009. The administrator noted that the Citizen's
publication rates are about 12% higher than the current paper and that the Citizen,
being a bi-weekly paper would provide less flexibility in scheduling hearings
where legal notice publication is required. Consensus seemed to be that the City
try the Citizen for one year and evaluate again after that.
The council discussed ways to improve communication with its citizens.
Improvements to the website may be helpful. The city hall message board was
discussed. Upgrades to the sign were not supported, as too expensive at this time.
Information highlights/city updates may become a feature of the website.
4) Capital Expenditures Plan. The current capital expenditure plan which goes out
to 2011 was distributed. Council members were asked to identify projects that
they would like to see added to the list.
5) CSAH 14 Engineering fees. The Council discussed the engineer's proposed
increase in the inspection budget for the CSAH 14 project. Council member Lee
expressed great concern that the engineer didn't disclose the proposed cost
increase until a large number of extra hours had already been incurred. Even
though city staff was busy with inspection of storm damage repair, he felt that the
city may have made other less costly arrangements had the council been given the
choice. Other council members felt that the inspection work was necessary and
the council would have approved it. The extra costs incurred to date are about
$21,000. Council member Broussard Vickers stated that she felt that the delay in
reporting the problem was about a month to 45 days later than it should have been
and suggested a 5% reduction in the rate for the hours expended. The Council will
further consider the matter at its next regular meeting.
6) LGAlMarket Value Homestead Credit. (discussed with goals)
7) 2009 Street Project. The council had a lengthy discussion on the 2009 Street
Project and whether it should be reconsidered in light of the economic and
unemployment problems facing the state. Members expressed concern that the
project would get more expensive if delayed, and that much of the costs incurred
thus far for engineering and the like would be wasted. Consensus was that the
project should proceed to the public hearing and a final decision made after that.
City Attorney Glaser reviewed the assessment hearing process and the
procedure to resolve assessment appeals.
8) 2009-2010 Budgets. Due to the late hour discussion was tabled on this item.
The meeting was adjourned at approximately 9:30 p.m.

Re: Official Newspaper
Dear Dallas,
We request that the city of Cengterville consider, appointing The Citizen as its official newspaper in 2009.
Not only do we meet all the legal publication requirements under the State of Minnesota, but \ve continue
to be the only publication to distribute our paper by U.S. Mail to every home within the Centerville city
limits. Our circulation is audited by John Caylor, Ltd., CPA, in independent firm.
We accept legal notices bye-mail toEditor@ReadTheCitizen.com. with a copy to Publisher@ReadTh-
eCitizen.com. Please identify these notices as "Legal Notices" in the e-mail subject line. We would also
appreciate receiving a paper copy via fax or the U.S. Mail for our files.
For 2009, our legal advertising rate is $9.00 per column inch. Legal notices will be printed in 7-point
type at nine lines per inch unless otherwise directed.
We publish every other wednesday. Our deadline is Friday at noon immediately prior to publication. As
always, we will make every effort to accommodate last-minute requests up until Monday at noon before
we go to press.
We look forward to this opportunity to serve the city of Centerville. If you have any questions or con-
cerns, please feel free to call me. In the meantime, Deb Barnes our managing editor will be making ar-
rangements to meet with you, Teresa Bender and Mayor Capra to discuss how we can accommodate your
needs as a bi-weekly newspaper.
Sincerely,
#w
