Review Draft of Memorandum of Understanding on CSAH 14 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 through the County park. 2. Dock/Bridges - Drainage Utility Easements Bob Dolfay of 1937 Eagle Trail indicated they have a bridge extending over an easement and asked Council to consider allowing them to keep it there as that is the only access to the back of his property for maintenance. City Attorney Hoeft provided an overview for Council on the liability issue and said he feels the bridge is different as it does not provide access to the water but to go over and provide access to the back piece of property so it is not as much of a concern as the docks would be. He then said that the City's policy and, possibly, the Ordinance would need to be changed to allow the dock to remain as it is currently the policy that no structures are allowed in easements. Mayor Capra asked that the building official work on this Ordinance. City Attorney Hoeft requested that the property owner be required to obtain insurance coverage naming the City as an additional insured. Council Member Paar indicated that he did some research and does not think that docks and bridges would be covered under a normal home owner's umbrella policy. Council agreed to consider allowing bridges provided that there are standards established and that insurance naming the City as an additional insured is provided. City Attorney Hoeft indicated he would discourage allowing decorative bridges in easements but allow functional bridges tlJat aid in maintenance. He then noted that the Page 4 of 10 ! L City of Centerville COWlCiI Meeting Minutes September 14, 2005 signage requirements recommended by the League would be similar with docks and bridges. Staff will look into insurance recommendations through the League and provide further information to Council. Erick Knight of 1747 Dupre Road addressed Council and said that his main issue is how an easement works for the City. He then said that he has a declaration given by Land Development that states what the easement is for. He then read it for Council. Mr. Knight indicated his dock is within the easement and does not disrupt the flow of water. He then said that his insurance company will name the City as an additional insured but said that there is a bike path around the pond that the kids use to jump bikes into the pond that would be of more concern than his dock. City Attorney Hoeft indicated that the declaration provided is not the controlling legal document as far as the easement is concerned. Mr. Knight indicated the dock is a removable structure and is not affecting the City in any way. City Attorney Hoeft indicated the City has the ability to control any structure within the easement and that is what the Council has decided to do based on a recommendation from its insurance camer. Jim Salin, an attorney representing the residents at 1715 Dupre Road indicated they have a dock on their land and he feels that they own a portion of the land based upon review of the Surveyor's Certificate, which he provided for review. Mr. Salin indicated his client has home owner's insurance at $300,000 per occurrence and has contacted the insurer and have been ensured that the dock is covered. Council Member Paar pointed out that it is in the easement, but they own the property. Mr. Salin asked if the legal description for the easement is provided somewhere. Mr. Salin questioned whether the easement does cover that dock based on the drawing and questioned how broad the easement is. City Attorney Hoeft indicated that the drainage and utility easements are expansive in CenteTville due to drainage issues and if there is a question about whether a structure is inside or outside of the easement he would be willing to review it. City Attorney Hoeft indicated that the City has the right to control the structures within the City's easement. Mr. Salin said the structure is unobtrusive and it is a very small dock extending six feet long and 10 feet wide that the residents use for limited and reasonable uses such as i L Page 5 ofl 0 .s- City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes September 14, 2005 feeding the ducks, sunning themselves and putting their feet in on a hot day but it is not used for swimming. Mr. Salin said that the City has concerns about liability and he is somewhat surprised at the level of concern as he has found no Minnesota Court that has held a City liable for injuries in a private pond. Mr. Salin commented that they recognize that the City has an interest and right to regulate but asked the City to do so in a rational way. He then said that they would like to have further discussion on the matter and agree to a permit situation but do not think it fair to executively order docks removed without a hearing process or Ordinance that would cover this. Susan Love of 1953 Eagle Trail said she does not have a dock in the pond at this time but the pond is a majority of her back yard and she has three children who enjoy going down to the pond and throwing a line in and walking on the rocks. She then said that, as a parent, it is her job to know where her children are and be aware of the hazard of the water. She further said that they carry a $1,000,000 umbrella policy on their house, vehicles and yard and she feels that since they own the property and pay taxes they should be able to use the pond and put out a dock. Council Member Paar commented that these ponds were not ever made for the intent of personal property enjoyment, they are to ease flooding issues. Mayor Capra indicated that these are drainage ponds to handle run off water and the ponds are used for settling ponds so that when it flows to the lake it keeps the lake cleaner. A resident commented that part of the problem is that the pond is over half of the lot and they expect to be able to beautify the area around it and have a dock to enjoy it. He further stated that he needs to be able to cut the tall grasses to control mosquitoes in the area. Council Member Paar said he understood the comments of residents but the reason these ponds are there is to control flooding within neighborhoods not for docks to access the water. He then said that he does not want docks in the ponds because he does not want to be on the Council that has to deal with a death or injury because the docks were not removed. Jim Berger of 1748 asked whether or not the dock or bridge has a purpose limits or reduces the liability. Council Member Paar said that he feels it does and commented that the bridge spans a ditch with a couple of inches of water in it to cross over to the rest of the property for maintenance whereas a dock invites people out into the water. Page 6 of! 0 ~ City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes September 14, 2005 Jamie Berglin of 1715 Dupre said that if they maintain a nice mowed frontage to the pond regardless of a dock it would still draw people to the pond and they would be trespassing. City Attorney Hoeft indicated there is official immunity if there is no structure there because it is not inviting a child there. Ms. Berglin said her insurance company believes that the City has no insurable liability as they own the land. City Attorney Hoeft indicated that the definition of easement could easily be defined and noted that the Subdivision Ordinance does not allow structures in an easement. Council Member Lee agreed with Council Member Paar and said he does not think the docks should be in the easements. He then said that he understands that residents want their backyards to look nice but the ponds are for drainage not recreation. He further commented that some communities require that the weeds grow up around them and that they be fenced. Mr. Knight indicated that the way the property is he would have to take the retaining wall down but his basement will flood because that is the way Ground Development developed that land. Council took a five minute break. Council reconvened at 7:50 p.m. Council Member Terway said he thinks that Council initiated this action because of concerns that they had for various reasons. He then said that Council has taken comments from residents but the decision has been made and he does not want to change that decision at this time. He further said that he would like to have Staff provide documentation to Council and residents that backs up the decision to show residents how Council arrived at this decision. Council Member Lakso agreed. Council Member Paar agreed. Mayor Capra said she sees the value that residents gain from the docks and understands that they are trying to create an amenity from something that is required to be there, but she agrees with the rest of the Council that it is a liability for the City and she would like Staff to provide documentation to residents and Council for consideration before final determination on whether to enforce removal of the docks. Motion bv Mavor Caora. seconded bv Council Member Lee to table this matter to the next meetinl! to anow Staff time to nrovide documentation to Council and residents. AD in favor. Motion carried unanimously. Page 7 of! 0 1 City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes September 14, 2005 3. Draft Purchase Agreement - 160 I LaMotte Drive City Administrator Larson reviewed the specifics of the draft Purchase Agreement with Council noting that a $10,000 earnest money check would be sent with the Purchase Agreement. Mayor Capra asked Staff to verify the appraisal amount and make sure the correct amount is listed in the Purchase Agreement. Staff agreed to do so. Council reviewed the terms of the Purchase Agreement and had no objections. 4. Discuss Development Agreement Issues - Pheasant Marsh 3rd Addition City Administrator Larson informed Council that Phase I of this development had a reserve strip ofland platted that was not caught by Staff. He then said that Phase III does as well. He further commented that the City's Ordinance does not allow reserve strips. City Attorney Hoeft explained that the reserve strip would allow the developer to recover some of his costs because he can charge the property owner to the south for connection to the road. He then explained that the approval for Phase III requires that the final plat be recorded within 60 days so that approval is back on the table and the City will require that the reserve strip be removed. City Administrator Larson reviewed with Council some of the discussions and negotiations he has been having with the developer asking if Council would be interested in having Outlot E deeded to the City for open space for a reduction in the drainage fees the developer is being charged. Council discussed the matter with Staff and made it clear that they had no interest in reducing park dedication fees for this developer. Council agreed to 25% contingency, replatting to eliminate the reserve strip, accepting Outlot E deeded to the City for a reduction in drainage fees, and to require a road easement or street stub for future access to the south property. 5. Pay Request #10 Dresel Contracting $11.687.50 - 2004 Utility and Street Improvement Proiect Council and Staff discussed the punch list items and their completion including the sodding around the rain garden. Mr. Peterson indicated that the project is completed and, if Council wanted to sod around the garden, it would require grading and starting over as you cannot sod over existing grass and weeds. Mayor Capra indicated she is disappointed that this took so long to be completed and she is not entirely satisfied with how it was completed. Page 8 oflO ? L City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes September 14, 2005 Council Member Terway suggested having Staff overseed the area in the fall. Mayor Capra indicated that she would like more work done on making the rain gardens aesthetically pleasing as they seem weedy and unsightly. Motion bv Council Member Terwav. seconded bv Council Member Lee to aoorove Pay Reanest #10 as oresented. An in favor. Motion carried unanimouslv. 6. Pay Reauest #4 American Tank Services. Inc. $3.674.86 Council Member Terway asked whether all punch list items were completed. Mr. Peterson indicated that the pond overflows during large rain events as it was designed to do so there were some erosion issues that have been resolved and will continue to improve as the plants become established. Motion bv Council Member Lee. seconded bv Council Member Lakso to aoorove Pay Request #4 as oresented. An in favor. Motion carried unanimouslv. Motion bv Council Member Lakso. seconded bv Council Member Paar to aoorove Chanl!e Order #2 with a reduction of $9.335.70. An in favor. Motion carried unanimouslv. IX. ANNOUNCEMENTSIUPDATES 1. Possible Uses of Rezoned Parcels Along Main Street Near 20th Avenue Mayor Capra indicated that there is a realtor purchasing several properties along Main Street for commercial redevelopment and she has asked the City for input as to what the City would like to see built there. She then said that the realtor was considering a pharmacy. Council listed several commercial ventures for Mr. Larson to relay to the realtor. 2. City Administrator - Mr. Dallas Larson City Administrator indicated that there was a change order on the Dresel Contracting Pay Request and asked Council to consider it. Motion bv Council Member Lakso. seconded bv Council Member Paar to auorove Chanl!e Order #3 for Dresel Contractinl! addinl! $10.658.54 as presented bv Staff. All in favor.

Downtown Redevelooment Planning City Administrator Larson indicated there would be a meeting on September 15, 2005 at 4:30 for a walk through. 5. Correspondence Mayor Capra indicated she would email the correspondence to Council. 6. Parking Ticket Request of Resident City Attorney Hoeft explained that a resident received two parking tickets for parking on the street after hours and was not happy. He then explained that she told him that she had work done on her driveway and needed to park in the street until it was done. He further explained to Council that he does not waive parking tickets and told her that she would need to speak to the Council on the matter. Council discussed the matter and agreed that regulating and handling parking tickets is not something the Council wants to get involved with as it is at the discretion of the Police Department and the City Attorney. Council Member Paar indicated that the EDC did not meet due to a lack of a quorum. Council recessed to closed session at 9:28 p.m. X.

All in favor. Motion carried unanimously. Transcribed by: Joan Lenzmeier, Recording Secretary TimeSaver Off Site Secretarial, Inc. Page 10 of! 0 /() The City Council of Centerville, Minnesota met in a closed session on Wednesday, September 14, 2005, at 9:25 p.m. in City Hall at the conclusion of its regular meeting. Present were Mayor Mary Capra, Council members Richard Terway, Michelle Lakso, Tom Lee and JeffPaar. Also present were Administrator Dallas Larson and Jim Hoeft of the City Attorney's office. The purpose of the closed meeting was to hear a proposal for settlement relating to the lawsuit with Royal Oaks Realty, Inc. City Attorney Hoeft reported that the opposing party made a settlement offer of $50,000 payable on October 1, 2005. The attorney explained that the City received two favorable rulings from a judge regarding the case. Most significant is the fact that attorney fees are subject for consideration at trial as provided for in the developer agreement. The Council was not impressed with the settlement offer, especially in light of the recent court decisions. The meeting was reopened to the public at 9:35 p.m. A motion was made by Council member Lee that the Council reject the settlement offer of Royal Oaks. Motion seconded by Council member Paar, all present voted in favor. The motion was declared passed The motion duly passed to adjourn the meeting at 9:40 p.m. Dallas Larson, City Administrator II terv'i{{e 'EstabfislJed'I&57 CITY OF CENTERVILLE 09/23/05 1 :30 PM Page 1 *Check Summary Register@) Name 10100 MAIN STREET BANK Paid Chk# 020620 LINDSAY, JULIE Paid Chk# 020621 ABBA TROPHY Paid Chk# 020622 ASSURANT EMPLOYEE Paid Chk# 020623 AVLIC Paid Chk# 020624 BENDER, TERESA Paid Chk# 020625 BILL'S RENTAL CENTER Paid Chk# 020626 CENTER POINT ENERGY Paid Chk# 020627 CINGULAR WIRELESS Paid Chk# 020628 CITIES DIGITAL Paid Chk# 020629 DAVIES WATER EQUIP.

Included is a discussion of the attractive nuisance theory, even though it applies only to property owners because of policy analysis. FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS Generally, courts have refused to impose liability upon municipalities for death to children from ponds under the attractive nuisance theory. Harper v. Topeka, 92 Kan. 11, 139 P. 1018 (1914): Raeside v. Citv of Sioux City, 209 Iowa 975, 229 N.W. 216 (1930); Fiel v. City of Racine, 203 Wis. 149,233 N.w. 611 (1930); Ochampauah v. City of Seattle, 91 Wash.2d 514, 588 P.2d 1351 (1979). Ochampauah found that the "most significant factor to be considered when it must be decided whether liability will be imposed upon the possessor for a condition existing upon the land is the likelihood or probability of harm to others." ~ at 1356. This court concluded that natural bodies of water, or similar artificial waters, do not present a likelihood or probability of such harm and noted that these natural waterways comprise one of the state's most cherished amenities. Under the attractive nuisance doct~ine, a p~ope~ty owner must use reasonable care to protect child trespassers where the owner reasonably anticipated the child's presence. This anticipation must be based on actual or implied knowledge of a feature's attractiveness to children. Hardv v. Missouri Pac. R.R. Co., 266 F. 860 (1920). The refusal to apply the attractive nuisance doctrine is based largely on the prevalence of ponos and the difficulty which a duty to fence would impose. As one court has noted, "Hundreds of bodies of water, both large and small, dot the entire state. These do take their toll on human life, especially of children, but it has not yet been deemed to be the duty of the owner to fence or barricade the ponds so as to exclude the public." Fiel, 203 Wis. at _,233 N.W. at 613. However, a court has noted that all bodies of water are attractive to children. Raeside, 209 Iowa at ___, 229 N.W. at 217. In Minnesota, the burden would be unreasonable because of the large number of ponds and lakes. It has been held that "a pond cannot be rendered inaccessible to boys by any ordinary means. Certainly no ordinary fence around the lot upon which a pond is situated would answer the purpose: therefore, to make it safe, the pond must be either filled or drained." Omaha v. Bowman, 52 Neb. 293, _, 72 N.W. 316, 318 (1914). In 1 ;!-1 i SEP-19-2005 14:59 LEAGUE OF MN CITIES 5512811295 P.04 48 addition, the liability of a municipality to the owner of the premise for causing the overflow of water ... does not make them liable to third persons for the drowning of a child in a pond. Ig., 52 Neb. at ___, 72 N.W. at 317. The attractive nuisance doctrine has generally been regarded as part of the law of negligence. Conditions on privately owned land do not usually impose any responsibility upon the municipality on the theory of attractive nuisance. McQuillan's Municioal Coroorations, S53.59 (f); See also Rhodes v. City of Kansas City, 167 Kan. 719, 208 P.2d 275 (1949); Woolf v. City of Dallas, 311 S.W.2d 78 (Tex. Civ. App. 1958). MINNESOTA LAW The attractive nuisance doctrine is not followed in Minnesota. Negligence must be shown because an attractive nuisance indicates no special departure or exception from the ordinary run of negligence cases. Hockinq v. Duluth. Mesabi & Iron Ranqe Rv., 263 Minn. 483, 489, 117 N.W.2d 304, ___ (1962). One element Of negligence is the existence of a duty to the plaintiff. Actionable negligence does not exist unless there has been a failure to discharge a legal duty to the one injured. Id. However, it has been held that there is no duty to fence or supervise a natural watercourse. Kellv v. City of New York, 25 N.Y.2d 950, 252 N.E.2d 636, 305 N.Y.S.2d 159 (1969). The plaintiff must also show that there is a special duty to the deceased or injured, and not just a duty to the general public. See Cracraft v. City of St. Louis Park, 278 N.W.2d 201 (Minn. 1979). However, it is settled in this state that: a municipality owes a duty of care toward children using the streets for recreation and play. Harninq v. City of Duluth, 224 Minn. 299, 303, 28 N.W.2d 659, ___ (1947). One court has found, however, no liability for the death of a child who fell into an unfenced drainage ditch, stating that the important factors are the presence of a hidden danger (e.g. a deep hole in a Shallow pool), knowledge of the condit:ion by the municipality and the practicality of remedying the danger. Peacock v. Dexter, 544 S.W.2d 80 (Mo. Ct. App. 1976). In Slinker v. Wallner, 258 Minn. 243, 103 N.W.2d 377 (1960), a landowner was held liable for the wrongful death of a trespassing child under a nuisance theory. The court based its decision on the requirements that there must be a foreseeable riSk of injury and an unreasonable danger. These are similar to the requirements that the city must have notice of the dangerous condition and an opportunity to cure before it can be found negligent. Fuller v. Citv of Mankato, 248 Minn. 342, 60 N.W.2d 9 (1956). Other courts have found that the danger of water in a pond 2 ~ -I tJ; SEP-19-2005 15:00 LEAGUE OF MN en I ES 6512811296 p.e5 49 is or should be obvious to a child, and therefore is not an unreasonable risk to trespassing children. Carqill. Inc. v. Zimmer, 374 F.2d 924 (8th Cir. 1967). This court analyzed several Minnesota cases concluding that where liability was imposed, the defendant ha.d knowledge of foreseeable harm because of the attraction of children to the area. rg. at 930; See Heitman v. City of Lake City, 225 Minn. 117, 30 N.W.2d 18 (~947) (A child drowned when he fell off a wall and into a harbor built and maintained by the city. Liability was imposed because children frequently used the wall and the city had not fenced it off. In addition, an occasional warning by the harbor master did not constitute the exercise of a sufficient degree of care) ; Davies v. Land O'Lakes Racing Assoc; 244 Minn. 248, 69 N.W.2d 642 (1955) (An accident occurred where children were known to play. The court, concluded that where one knowingly maintains something that mayor is certain to attract children or may present a concealed danger in an area where children are more or less likely to trespass, the legal effect may justify a finding of actionable negligence) . NUISANCE A municipality is not liable for the failure to abate a nuisance which it did not create, except after notice and a request to abate is received. McQuillan's Municioal Corporations, ~53.59 (a). Generally, the failure to enact or enforce ordinances for the prevention or abatement of a public nuisance on private property will not render a municipality liable. Id. at ~53.59 (c); See Arnold Y. City of St. Louis, 152 Mo. 173, 53 S.W. 900 (1899) (No liability for a municipality where the pond is on private property because the municipality had no control over private property and was under no duty to abate the nuisance) . In Minnesota, it has been held that a municipality, in an action for a child's death by drowning, was not chargeable with negligence as a matter of law for piling rubbiSh on a path within city streets. Stadherr v. City of Bauk Center, 180 Minn. 496, 231 N.W, 210 (1930). This was the result even though the municipality owned the property where the accident occurred. Private nuisances only produce damages to one or a few persons. 58 Am. Jur. 2d Nuisances S9 (1964). Prevention or abatement of a private nuisance is the responsibility of the injured party and not the municipality. Bill v. StokelY-Van camp. Tnc., 260 Minn. 315, 109 N.W.2d 749 (1961). Public nuisances affect a considerable number of persons. Minn. Stat. S609. 74 (198B). This statute defines a public nuisance as follows, "Whoever by his act or failure to perform a legal duty intentionally does arty of the following is guilty of maintaining a pUblic nuisance: (1) Maintains or permits a 3 ~lj SEP-19-2005 15:00 LEAGUE OF MN CITIES 6512811296 P.06 50 condition which unreasonably annoys, ~nJures or endangers the safety, health, morals, comfort or repose of any considerable number of members of the public." Id. In general, sewage and drainage conditions which menace public health are nuisances per se and are subject to summary abatement. McQuillan's Munici1;>al Coroorations, ~24. 257. Stagnant water, particularly where insects breed, is without a doubt a public nuisance. lQ. at !i24.2650. Courts have used the nuisance theory in drowning accident cases which have occurred on land owned by a county. Caywood v. Board of County Comm'rs of Sedawick County, 200 Kan. 134, 434 F.2d 780 (1967). Here, the court listed the following things as nuisances, sewage plants discharging raw sewage, a public dump which contained a stagnant pool and a defective surface water drain. Then the court stated that swimming pools in city parks, an artificial drainage channel and a sandpit excavation full of water are not public nuisances. Id. at 786-87. STANDARDS QF CARE Minnesota courts have followed the various standards of care found in the Restatement (Second) of Torts with regard to the above situations. Each situation has a different standard of care based on the age of the plaintiff and the locacion of the waterway. The general rule for liability of possessors of land to trespassers is Restatement (Second) of Torts ~333. See HUQ'hes V. Ouarve & Anderson Co., 338 N.W.2d 422, 424 (Minn. 1983) (Restatement (Second) of Torts ~!i333, 335 are the standards of care for adult trespassers). The rule states a possessor Of land is not liable to trespassers for a physical harm caused by his failure to exercise reasonable care (a) to put the land in a condition reasonably safe for their reception, or (b) to carry on his activities so as not to endanger them. If the waterway is a drainage ditCh or some other type of artificial condition which is highly dangerous to constant trespassers, the standard of care is Restatement (Second) of Torts ~335. See Lawler v. Soo line R.R. Co., 424 N.W.2d 313, 316 (Minn. Ct. App. 1988); Watters v. Buckbee Mears Co., 354 N.W.2d 848, 850 (Minn. Ct. App. 1984) (Both cases utilize Restatement (Second) of Torts S335 in analyzing each claim). The rule states a possessor of land who knows, or from facts within his knowledge should know, that trespassers constantly intrude upon a limited area of land, is subject to liability for bodily harm caused by an artificial condition on the.land, if (a) the condition (i) is one which the possessor has created or maintained and 4 ~-I~ SEP-19-2005 15:00 LEAGUE OF MN CITIES 6512811296 P.07 51 (ii) is, to his knowledge, likely to cause death or serious bodily harm to such trespassers and (iii) is of such a nature that he has reason to believe that such trespassers will not discover it, and (b) the possessor has failed to exercise reasonable care to warn such trespassers of the condition and the risk involved. If the waterway is an artificial condition highly dangerous to known trespassers, the standard of care is Restatement (Second) of Torts ~337. The rule states a possessor of land who maintains on the land an artificial condition which involves a risk of death or serious bodily harm to persons coming in contact with it, is subject to liability for bodily harm caused to trespassers by his failure to exercise reasonable care to warn them of the condition if (a) the possessor knows or has reason to know of their presence in dangerous proximity to the condition, and (b) the condition is of such a nature that he has reason to believe that the trespasser will not discover it or realize the risk involved. If the waterway is an artificial condition which is highly dangerous to trespassing children, the standard of care is Restatement (Second) of Torts &339. See Minnesota Law Section of this letter; Kukowski v. William Miller Scrap Iron & Metal Co., 353 N.W.2d 638, 641-42 (Minn. Ct. App. 1984) (Quoted and used Restatement (Second) of Torts ~339) _ The rule states a possessor of land is subject to liability for physical harm to children trespassing thereon caused by an artificial condition upon the land if (a) The place where the condition exists is one upon which the possessor knows or has reason to know that children are likely to trespass, and (b) the condition is one of which the possessor knows or has reason to know and which he realizes or should realize will involve an unreasonable risk of death or serious bodily harm to such children, and (c) the children because of their youth do not discover the condition or realize the risk involved in intermeddling with it or in coming within the area made dangerous by it, and (d) the utility to the possessor of maintaining the condition and the burden of eliminating the danger are slight as compared with the risk to children involved, and (e) the possessor fails to exercise reasonable care to eliminate the danger or otherwise protect the children. 5 ~/r 5EP-19-2005 15:00 LEAGUE OF MN C IT I E5 6512811296 P.08 52 The rema~n~ng question to be addressed is determining who is an adult and who is a child under the restatement standards. In Huahes, 338 N.W.2d 422. 424-25. the court examines this issue in depth. There is no set age at which a plaintiff should be denied 5339 instruction. Comment c to 5339 states that 5339 has been applied in a few instances to 16 and 17 year old children. The comment also says that as the age' of the child increases. conditions become fewer for which there can be recovery under this rule, until at some indeterminate point, probably beyond the age of 16. there are no longer any such conditions. In the end. this determination has to be made after reviewing the facts and circumstances of each case. In conclusion. a municipality has a duty to fence man-made ponds if it can be reasonably foreseen that individuals. especially children, will be by such ponds. An example would be if a sewer retention pond is constructed next to a day-care center. However, with regard to natural ponds, it is uncertain whether or not fencing could be required. Even the Restatement (Second) of Torts has expressed no opinion as regards this issue. Therefore, use the same reasonableness standard as used in the above man-made pond situation. 6 ;ti TOTAL P. 0'/ Law Office ofJames S. SHerr Send all replies to: P.O.

It does state that no structure may be placed in an easement (Division 65). However, the definition of a "structure" as provided in Section . 015-020 excludes certain items, such as "enclosed play structures under fifty(50) square feet, fences and patios." Whether or not, a dock would fall within the excluded items is ambiguous at best. " .'-- - ~1j Mayor and Members of City Council September 24, 2005 The Bergelands purchased their property in May 2004 and constructed their dock in July 2004. The Bergelands were unaware of any code or ordinance violation at the time they constructed their dock. The dock itself is a small affair, measuring approximately 6 feet long and three feet wide as it extends into their pond. Until the Bergelands received a letter from the City dated August 22,2005, requesting the removal of the dock, they were unaware of any problem or concern that the City might have. In a letter addressed to Dallas Larson, City Administrator, dated August30, 2005, the Bergelands, joined by other dock owners, indicated their willingness to have the City . covered under an umbrella policy as part of their private homeowner's policy. The cost ofthe aclditional coverage would be incurred by the homeowner. This proposal is -identical to one recommended by the League of Minnesota Cities in their materials included in your packet of materials for your September 14 meeting. . - The Bergelands very much wish to retain their dock. They constructed their dock in good. . . faith, believing it to be part of the quiet enjoyment oJ their property. They would view the removal" of their dock to be a misuse of your easement and.a takfug of their property. . I hope you can resolve this matter Without requiring the Bergelands to remove their clock.' . There are other less drastic options open to you. You could requite that the Bergelartd~' . 'tUJ.d ofuerssimilarly situated name the city as an "additional insured" on the insurance. '. policy relating to the dock. You could allow the Bergelands to retain their dock with the. writtertunderstanding that the dock would be removed upon the sale of their property. .' Such all approach would leave open the amending of your Ordinance Number 4 to- _ reference docks and remove the present ambiguity. ., ~ Very truly yours, ~'OI'.i ~ - (J\",>--: James S.

M\lIlicipalitiesare rank-ea aeeeffiing-te-tfte-pcrecnt of-theirtotal-housing stock that is comprised of rental units affordable to households of low- and moderate-income (50 percent of area median income or less). This includes all federally subsidized rental units - public housing, Section 8 housing, units subsidized by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, units developed with the use of low-income housing tax credits, units developed with the assistance of MHF A, the LCA Fund or the assistance of a local fiscal tool or housing finance initiative. o to 8 points 3.

These units may include twinhomes, quads, apartments, townhomes, condominiums, detached townhomes, mobile homes, and units developed with a zero-lot line. o to 10 points 4. Municipalities are ranked according to the percent of net units added to their housing stock that are affordable - both ownership and rental since the Council began monitoring in 1996. These "new" units may include units that haye been "preserved" as affordable for a definitive period of ~e because of public or private re-investmentto retain their affordability. ("Net units" means that affordable habitable units, not including units on land with a property tax classification of 4C, removed as the result of a city initiative will be subtracted [rom the total new affordable units.) o to 3 points 5. Housing for special needs Municipalities are awarded up to three points for the following types of special housing within their jurisdiction: · Housing for which federal, state, county or local funds or those of a non-profit organization have been used to purchase and operate residential units or provide licensed housing that is not for the purposes of incarceration, but as a transitional placement of adult offenders or adjudicated delinquents .

A shelter which is publicly subsidized and/or operated by a non-profit group to provide temporary housing for homeless persons and families, battered women or those not otherwise able to secure private housing · Housing for individuals and families who are homeless, but with a transitional stay of six to 24 months, and the assistance of advocates, can work towards housing stability and self-sufficiency to obtain permanent housing. Each instance of such housing is worth 1 point. . Local Initiatives-to FacHitate Affordable -W6rkfllree-HousingDev~topment or Preservation o to 15 points 6. Fiscal Tools and Initiatives The municipality has in place adopted local policy in its comprehensive plan or local housing plan that allows and encourages the use of a local fiscal tool or initiative and has used such a local fiscal tool to assist affordable workforce or life-cycle housing development or preservation. Examples of such fiscal tools include but are not limited to the following: . Tax increment financing . Housing revenue bonds . General obligation bonds . A local property tax levy . Local tax abatement . Local fee waivers or reductions . Credit enhancements . Taxable revenue bonds .
