OTHER (NONASSESSMENT) COSTS
Water Availability Charge (WAC):
Water availability charges are the costs to connect to and become a
part of the Centerville water system. This charge pays for the costs
associated with water systems such as elevated storage, water
treatment facilities, and maintenance. The WAC charge is $1300 per
unit.
Sewer Availability Charge (SAC):
Sewer availability charges are the costs to connect to and become a
part of the Centerville sewer system. This charge pays for the costs
associated with the sewer system, such as lift station rehabilitation
and operation costs, sewer cleaning, and system maintenance. The
SAC charge is $1750 per unit for the City of Centerville. The
Metropolitan Council of Environmental Services also issues a SAC
charge of $1100 per unit.
Miscellaneous Costs:
The individual property owner will be responsible for the connection
between the property line and the individual building. Because of the
many different configurations, this cost varies considerably, and is
difficult to estimate. Property owners may also have costs associated
with taking individual well systems and septic systems out of service.
The current City Ordinance requires property owners to connect to the
sewer once sewer service is available. Property owners must connect
to the water system once a private well system is in need of repair.

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 13, 2000
6:00 p.m.
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the City of Centerville held their regularly
scheduled meeting on September 13, 2000, at City Hall, 1880 Main Street.
PRESENT: Mayor Tom Wilharber
Council Member Dick Travis
Council Member Terry Sweeney
Council Member Linda Broussard Vickers
Council Member Mari Nelson
ABSENT: None
STAFF: City Administrator, Jim March
City Attorney, James Hoeft
City Engineer, Tom Peterson
CALL TO ORDER
Mayor Wilharber called the September 13, 2000, City Council meeting to order at
6:00 p.m.
II. SET AGENDA
The following items were added to the agenda:
• Add Sewer and Water at Hunter's Crossing under Unfinished Business
Motion by Council Member Broussard Vickers, seconded by Council
Member Nelson to approve the agenda with the noted additions. All in favor.
Motion carried unanimously.
III. PUBLIC HEARING (S)
Northern Forest Products - Tax Abatement
Mayor Wilharber opened the public hearing at 6:01 p.m.
Council read and discussed a letter from Mr. McDowell illustrating a number of
concerns that he had with the original establishment of his tax increment district.
Mr. McDowell's letter further indicates that he desires to expand his business and
mentions that he has discussed locating his expansion in Hugo to be near rail
access.
It was noted Mr. McDowell is requesting a five (5) year tax abatement as an
incentive for Northern Forest Products to expand in Centerville. The abatement
would only be granted for five (5) years if there is an actual expansion. Only a
one (1) year abatement would be granted, if no expansion occurred. If the
Council is willing to grant this abatement, a new public hearing will have to be
held. The abatement would only be granted for the increased market valuation,
not for the existing valuation.
Sid Inman and Carolyn Drude addressed the Council. Mr. Inman presented an
impact analysis to show the costs of the requested abatement. Mr. Inman
indicated that tax increment financing requires tear down or build new which does
not apply to existing businesses. He stated three (3) years ago the tax abatement
law was changed and currently is a tool that cities may use to help existing
businesses expand and stay within the their communities.
Council Member Nelson referenced the spreadsheet that was provided to Northern
Forest Products and inquired as to if the letter from them was their response to the
City's proposal and, if so, did that mean they were unhappy with the proposal
from the City. She also asked if Northern Forest Products would be happy with
one (1) year or if they were demanding five (5). Mr. March indicated that the
letter was Northern Forest Products' response to the City and that they would
prefer the five (5) year to the one (1) year abatement.
A.w&
Mayor Wilharber asked if the City were to prov de tax abatement to Northern
Forest Products was the City required to notify County and the School
District. Mr. March did not believe the City needed to do so, but they certainly
could. Mr. March indicated he does not recommend exceeding a five (5) year tax
abatement.
Carolyn Drude said Northern Forest Products was requesting five (5) years.
x9
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if the City chooses not provide a five
(5) year tax abatement, if the one (1) year abatement would solve the current
problem or is it still possible that it would end up in litigation. Mr. March stated
Northern Forest Products has indicated that they have shopped other communities
who are willing to provide tax abatement or Tax Increment Financing (TIF) and
vot-expand in another city if not granted their request.
toK
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned what would happen to the old
situation if the City agrees to a one (1) year abatement rather than a five (5) year
abatement. Mr. March indicated it would take care of the two (2) old notes and
that Norther Forest Products would not expand in Centerville.
Page 2 of 22
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated it was her desire to make sure the
first problem was taken care of prior to agreeing an extension. Mr, March
indicated if the City agrees to a five (5) year tax abatement it would allow
Northern Forest Products to expand in Centerville. The one (1) year tax
abatement would allow for payment of the two (2) notes.
Mayor Wilharber asked the Council if there were any more questions or
comments.
Mr. March asked what types of criteria the City may impose on a company in
return for granting an abatement. Mr. Inman indicated that under a new contract
the City could require jobs and any other requirements they desired.
Mr. March questioned if it was in the City's best interest not to invest in
equipment that could be moved to another community but invest in a building that
cannot be moved. Mr. Inman said the City can propose anything in the contract
however, the City must get the business to approve a contractual agreement.
Mr. March asked Mr. Inman for a draft of a document Mr. Inman has used in the
past and Mr. Inman agreed to forward same.
Motion by Council Member Broussard Vickers to close the public hearing,
seconded by Council Member Nelson. All in favor. Motion carried
unanimously.
Mayor Wilharber closed the public hearing at 6 :20 p.m.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated she had concerns regarding the
previous problems and solving same. She also indicated her willingness to offer
the one (1) year abatement with no contingencies and in the future, with
expansion of the existing building extend the amount of time with contingencies.
Council Member Sweeney indicated he would like to see examples of
contingencies other cities require when granting tax abatements. He stated he
would agree to the one (1) year tax abatement to correct the current problems.
Council Member Nelson asked if the one (1) year abatement was a "done deal ".
Mr. March indicated Council has approved the plan; however, the owner has not
signed it. He indicated Northern Forest Products will accept the one (1) year
abatement but will continue to look at other communities.
Council Member Nelson stated she was concerned with setting a precedent for
other businesses to request similar items of the City. Mr. Inman indicated the
City may control the abatement by setting a policy and contingencies that must be
complied with to grant an abatement.
Page 3 of 22
Council Member Travis stated he did not like the wording of the letter from
Northern Forest Products and found it almost intimidating if the City chooses not - t °
grant the five (5) year abatement. He questioned the ramifications if the business
chose to leave. Mr. Inman explained that the tax value is based on the fair market
value of the building and property so the taxes would remain the same if the
business were to leave town.
Council Member Travis indicated he would vote in favor of keeping Northern
Forest Products in Centerville providing the first notes were paid in full.
Mayor Wilharber stated the letter is a situation of the business owner "playing
poker" to raise the stakes. He then stated he believes it is apparent that Northern
Forest Products came to town and created a nice, well -kept business. He stated he
is in favor of the five (5) year tax abatement as an incentive to expand in
Centerville.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if the last paragraph of the letter,
which indicated a need to come to an agreement meant that there was no
agreement, Mr. March said it feels as though the City is being held hostage. He
also stated that most industrial manufacturers ask what the City will offer them to
locate within their community.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he has had contact with the business owner and said
he does have other offers that he is entertaining and stressed the importance of
keeping the business in the community. Mr. March indicated it is easier to keep
businesses in the community rather than having to attract new businesses.
Council Member Broussard Vickers suggested having a public hearing on the five
(5) year abatement.
Motion by Council Member Broussard Vickers, seconded by Council
Member Travis to set a public hearing on the five (5) year tax abatement. Ail
in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
Council Member Sweeney indicated a desire to have any conditions or
contingencies that the City may request be arranged prior to the public hearing.
Council Member Broussard Vickers said she desired establishing a public hearing
date to avoid delay.
Mr. March asked Mr. Inman if publication of the public hearing notice for a five
(5) year tax abatement was appropriate. Mr. Inman concurred. He would accept
the one (1) year deal with a possibility of working toward five (5) year agreement.
He also indicated they would draft a proposed development agreement and
forward it to the City for approval.
Page 4 of 22
Ms. Drude stated this type of request is not unique to Centerville and indicated it
happens in most cities.
A consensus was reached to hold a public hearing at the October 11, 2000
Council Meeting in regards to Northern Forest Products request.
IV. APPEARANCES /AWARDS
Eagle Pass Single Townhome Association
Jim Halstrom, (President, Eagle Pass Single Townhome Association) appeared
before the Council to discuss the enforcement of the Developer's Agreement,
street lighting and concerns /issues with any future development of the two (2)
outlots that would be joined with their Association.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the owners of the townhomes have had to endure ongoing
development which they understand, however he explained there are agreements
and ordinances in place that govern the way things should be done in order to
make it more bearable. He then read a list of the following issues:
1. Regular sweeping of streets and sidewalks
2. Ongoing clean -up of construction debris
3. Regular maintenance and weed control
4. Silt fencing at construction sites
5. Inspection of site grading and sodding practices
6. Cleaning of storm sewer grates
7. Street lighting
0. i,agic rain th LtUS
9. Future outlot development
Mr. Halstrom indicated the streets and sidewalks are dirty and that someone
should be responsible to maintain them and requested that the Council look into
the matter. He indicated the developer has been leaving construction debris all
over the sites that are under construction which blows around the development.
He also indicated there are other cities with daily clean -up requirements, ; 1

o • ' di -. --
a ' s .ew. ar: t a'dth. :om:• esh.. de • ce = to uchapolic .
Mr. Halstrom indicated the developer has not maintained the outlots and lots that
are not currently developed. Mr. Halstrom stated that excessive weed growth is
unsightly and requested that the Council work with the developer on same.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the developer is not currently using silt fencing and there
is excessive erosion, dirt in the streets and on the sidewalks. He asked the City to
require silt fencing in the future.
Page 5 of 22
Mr. Halstrom indicated the Development Agreement requires that four (4) inches
of comparable top soil be added before the sod is installed. He indicated this has
not been done in the development which has lead to grading problems and weed
control problems. He also indicated their maintenance company has trouble due
to terrible condition of the yards. He requested that the City inspect the sodding
and have the developer replace it.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the storm sewer grates are routinely plugged with
construction debris, dirt and weeds and requested that the City maintain same or
to require the developer to do so.
Mr. Halstrom indicated he and the Association expresses safety issues with the
current lighting of their development. He also stated there are too few street
lights based on the fact that their development has winding streets and the houses
are setback further off the street than other developments. He requested the City
inspect the lighting and add additional streetlights or require the developer to
provide same.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the Association is concerned about the park in the
development because there is a sports stand that is not currently useful. He
indicated that perhaps installing basketball hoops on either end would make a
better use of the stand. He also expressed a desire to provide "screening" of the
portable toilet installed in the park. He suggested shrubs or trees to camouflage
the facility.
Mr. Halstrom also expressed to the Council the Association's disapproval of the
proposed development of the outlots. He explained that roads will be extended
and there will be two (2) associations responsible for one road which would be
hard to manage.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked which roads were private roads. Mr.
Halstrom indicated Voyageur Court was in their development and Ojibway was in
the twin home area. He indicated Ojibway, which is a private road, would be
extended into their Association and they would share maintenance costs on same
with the twin home association.
Mr. March referenced another townhome development that has lights on the front
of the units that unit owners leave on all night and he inquired as to whether the
Association had lights on their units and if they leave them on. Mr. Halstrom
indicated lighting is up to the individual unit owner and said they have no exterior
motion detectors.
A member of the audience, also from the Association, indicated lighting on the
houses does not add to the lighting of the streets due to the style of the
development with winding streets and setbacks. Mr. March indicated it did in the
other development because houses were closer to the street than in Eagle Pass.
Page 6 of 22
A member of the audience, also from the Association, indicated cars are speeding
through the development. They indicated this was not safe because there are
pedestrians in the street because the sidewalks contain construction debris and
dirt.
Mr. March asked if the developer could be forced to pay for additional
streetlights. Mr. Hoeft stated the City would have to discuss this with the
developer subsequent to finding out if they are in violation of the Development
Agreement.
Mr. March indicated Swift Construction is interested in developing the outlots and
stated they have complied with City requests regarding those outlots.
Mr. March said he received a telephone call from Swift regarding the Townhome
Association and indicated they are looking into stainless steel mailboxes and
asked if the City would be willing to w iy the $25.00 per mailbox stand fee if the
developer installs them. He also the Association intended to replace all
mailbox stands or just to install this type for new units.
Mr. Halstrom said the Association does not like the appearance of the current
mailbox stand and indicated it is not secure. Recently, mail was removed from a
box and placed in the park's portable toilet.
A member of the audience, also from the Association, explained the mailbox
stands are unsightly and difficult to install additional mailbox to the existing
ctands.
Mr. March stated Pu 4 W will address the issue of the mailbox add ons and
stated that Swift is want to pay the $25.00 on top of the $21.00 they are
being charged for the mailbox holders.
A member of the audience, from the Association, said they were told the post
office would pay $20.50 for each undeveloped lot for a secure mailbox unit but
the developer needed to provide the concrete pad.
Mayor Wilharber asked if the mail prank was reported to the police because
tampering with mail is a federal offense.
A member of the audience, from the Association, asked if a building permit was
required for the concrete pads. Mr. March indicated a permit was not required.
Mayor Wilharber questioned the Council if they had any issues or discussion
concerning the matter.
Page 7 of 22
Council Member Nelson questioned a lack of standard performance by the builder
and indicated the City should not continue to let a builder with past performance
problems develop additional lots within the City.
Mr. March questioned if the City has the ability to legally delay permits for a
developer not complying with the requirements set forth prior to allowing
additional building in other areas. Mr. Hoeft indicated any development would be
dependent on a Development Agreement and the City has no authority to delay
permits unless there is a valid contract issue. Council Member Sweeney said the
City could prevent the developing of outlots until the developer complies.
Mr. Hoeft stated he was not involved in the execution of the Development
Agreement with Eagle Pass and said he would like a copy of the agreement. Mr.
Halstrom provided a copy of the agreement to Mr. Hoeft.
Mr. Hoeft stated the City may take previous noncompliance into consideration
when a developer requests approval for future developments. He said the two (2)
issues must be independent but the City can use what they have learned to prevent
future problems in the new development.
Mr. Halstrom requested the City consider other developments along with theirs
when upholding development standards.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if the City could escrow
performance money coinciding with the new development. The escrow would be
avallaote to rennourse me Lay or Association for naving the joos clone 11 not
completed by the developer. Mr. Hoeft said the agreement can contain any kind
of provision the City would like to see and he advised it would be a good idea due
to lack of performance in the past.
Mr. March asked if the Council would like to go to the development in the
evening to see if there is a lighting problem and then make a proposal to the
developer, decide if the City will pay for street lights or assess the individual
property owners.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if there was a standard City plan for
street lighting. Mr. Hoeft indicated he believed it to be one street light for every
three hundred (300) feet or four hundred (400) feet.
Council Member Nelson questioned if the City Engineer would inspectious the
street light situation and report back to the Council.
Mayor Wilharber noted anytime street lights are added there will be ongoing costs
to maintain and upkeep the lights which is an increase of expenses to the City.
Mr. Halstrom indicated this is a safety issue at this point and money should not be
placed higher than safety.

L _ -
Mayor Wilharber indicated he drove through the City at night and found that
buildings and homes with lights on the exterior do provide more light on the street
and said having lights on the townhome exteriors may be an idea to solve the
problem. He also indicated the City would be willing to look at the lighting issue
but said he is concerned for continued operating costs.
Mr. March noted with the development of the outlot areas the City would have
leverage to assess the developer for more lights.
A member of the audience, who is a member of the Association, said when they
drive around the curves in the development their headlights go one way and they
are looking the other way into the dark. She said she has almost hit people
because people are walking in the street because the sidewalks are not clear. She
also indicated a desire for a security light at the park and said she believes the
light at the park should be the City's responsibility. Mr. March noted people in
this community are out alot walking and biking and even though there are
sidewalks provided alot of people do walk in the streets.
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated a desire to have the ongoing clean-
up of construction debris added to the Development Agreement. She said a silt
fencing requirement has been added already and indicated the sodding or soil
replacement should be inspected and if done incorrectly, it should be re -done at
the developer's expense. She also said the issues of Eagle Park need to be
forwarded to the Parks and Recreation Department.
Council Member Broussard Vickers then asked if the developer can force the
Association to take on new members by developing the outlots. Mr. Hoeft
declined to comment as he has not read the Development Agreement.
Mr. Halstrom explained the by -laws of the Association say the developer can add
up to sixty-seven (67) units. He explained the private road will expand and add
eight (8) more units than allowed in the by -laws. The current plan from Swift
Construction shows twenty (20) units and the by -laws state eighteen (18) are
allowed.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if the developer came to the Council
with a plan for a certain number of houses if the City could deny the request if the
Association provides the Council with something that proves the developer is at
fault. She then indicated if the Association has nothing to prevent the
development it may be a civil issue between the developer and the Association.
City Attorney Hoeft stated he could not comment on the developer's plans
because there is not an approved plan. He then indicated the developer could
create a new association or create some thing with the existing Association if it is
not in violation of the by -laws or Development Agreement. He indicated the plan
1
Page 9 of 22
would need City approval and the City would be interested in a plan that is fair to
both sides of the issue.
A member of the audience, from the Association asked if the private streets could
> P
be made into city streets. Mr. Hoeft said this was not likely.
A member of the audience also from the Association asked if the Association
could be notified when Swift Construction appears before Council seeking
approval of their expansion plan for the development. Mr. March said this would
be done.
A member of the audience, from the Association, asked if the City were to deny
Swift Construction's development plan, what would happen to the property. Mr.
Hoeft indicated Swift Construction owns the property and can propose anything
that is allowed by ordinance or sell it to some one else for development. Mr.
March said Gor -em actually owns the lots but Swift Construction was developing
them. He indicated finding a mutually agreeable development was beneficial.
A member of the audience, from the Association, asked if the City would be able
to notify the Association when seal coating or other road maintenance was being
done in the development so they could join in to save money. Mr. March said the
City commonly does that with other developments and would have no problem
with this request.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if the City Attorney would review
the Development Agreement to see what the City can do to demand compliance.
A member of the audience, from the Association, commented on the sodding and
grading at the development and said it affects the City with runoff issues.
Council Member Travis asked why this is all being addressed to Swift
Construction if Gor -em owns the property. Mr. March stated the developer is less
than responsive once the lot is sold and developed. He stated then Swift
Construction is in charge of issues stemming from development.
A member of the audience, from the Association, said her son works in
construction and some homes he was working on recently were red-flagged by the
g Y gg Y
City because the contractor had not used silt fencing as required. She indicated
all work in the development stopped until the developer had complied with the silt
fencing requirement. She then asked if Centerville could do something similar to
make developers comply.
She then told the Council she recently observed some kids playing on some
trusses that were leaning up against a dumpster, partially blocking the sidewalk,
and said it was a very unsafe situation. She also said the dumpsters are always
overflowing with debris that blows all over the neighborhood. Mayor Wilharber
Page 10 of 22
indicated the Public Works Department and the Building Inspector would do a
better job of enforcing ordinances to get the developer to comply. He then told
the residents the City Attorney will check into the issue to see if there is anything
the City may do to enforce and address the issues brought forth.
Bill Bisek from Kelly's Korner
Bill Bisek appeared before the Council and discussed with the Council the 3rd
Annual Kelly's Korner Customer Appreciation Event. He indicated the Rockin'
Hollywoods would be performing outside during the evening of October 14, 2000
from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. He indicated there would also be a pig roast.
Mayor Wilharber and the Council told Mr. Bisek there were two (2) or three (3)
complaints of noise last year.
Council Member Broussard Vickers said a citizen recommended the celebration
end earlier this year.
Motion by Council Member Sweeney, seconded by Council Member
Broussard Vickers to approve the noise permit to allow Kellv's Korner
Customer Appreciation Event to proceed as planned. All in favor. Motion
carried unanimously.
Council Member Travis asked if there would be a problem with ending at 11:00
p.m. Mr. Bisek indicated it was not a problem but it would mean a 7:00 o'clock
start which is a little early since most people have to eat dinner, get the babysitter,
and they would miss a lot of the show.
Mayor Wilharber stated since this event occurs once a year, and if it is advertised
well, the public will be aware that the event is going on and can plan accordingly.
Mr. Bisek indicated they do send out letters to residents within three hundred fifty
(350) feet and invite them over to enjoy the day, at no cost to them, and said the
event was very well attended by the neighbors. He also said if he needs to do
some thing to better inform residents of what is going on, he will certainly do that.
Adult Sport Leagues. Bill Bisek
Mr. Bisek said Last Wednesday he went to the Parks and Recreation Committee
meeting and explained he was approached by many residents in the community
for sports entertainment. He indicated there are no organized sports in town
except for little league baseball. He explained in years past there was a business
in town taking care of part of that with an adult softball league and broomball in
the winter.
Page 11 of 22
Mr. Bisek stated this is an Economic Development issue because each business
helps another and if there were entertainment for adults in town the participants
and spectators would spend money in Centerville. He then explained the leagues
can be self sufficient if managed properly. His plan is to charge fees to the
participants to cover the cost of renting the facility and any maintenance required.
He said he is willing to get the program running at no cost to the City.
Mr. Bisek questioned the Council whether to move ahead and explained some of
his ideas would be working with Centennial School District to rent gyms for
volleyball leagues, broomball or boot hockey, along with softball at LaMotte
Park. He indicated he would work in conjunction with anything else that is
scheduled. Mr. Bisek said he feels it is a shame the kids have to leave Centerville
to play football and soccer because it takes business out of Centerville.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated from her perspective it is hard to keep
a program running and says she is cautiously optimistic of the ability to draw
people from the community to make it a success. She said Parks and Recreation
Committee should get involved in these programs.
Council Member Sweeney stated he has talked about getting leagues going at
Parks and Recreation Committee meetings and they are in favor of it.
Mr. March stated the hockey rink is usually open and available so if Mr. Bisek is
able to organize a league it would be a better use for the facility.
Mr. Bisek stated it takes time to develop and implement a new program. He feels
he has resources to pull from and if he gets permission from the City to get the
word out he feels it would succeed.
Council Member Nelson questioned what Mr. Bisek needs from the City. Mr.
Bisek stated he does not want it to be perceived as a Kelly's function, but as a
City run league. He said he would like to use the sign out in front of City Hall to
advertise the leagues forming. He also said he would like the City to handle the
funds for fees and writing the checks for renting of space and maintenance.
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated the City needed to check on
insurance to start up a City run sports league.
Council Member Sweeney stated they need to discuss the possibility of adding a
person in the Parks and Recreation Department to administer the programs and
that would affect the budget for Parks and Recreation.
Mayor Wilharber stated he would like to see a "concept plan" from Parks and
Recreation for costs, budget and equipment to operate a program. He stated he
agrees with the concept but would like to see what it would cost the City.
Page 12 of 22
Mr. Bisek indicated he would be doing the work of the Parks and Recreation
employee to facilitate the start up. He said he is almost positive that Mr. Prew
who started leagues in Vadnais Heights would be willing to help him get things
going in Centerville. Mr. Bisek indicated it is impossible to say what it would
cost the City until it gets going. He then explained there should be no extra costs
because the facilities are already operating and the league would use them when
they were not in use by other groups thereby utilizing the facility better.
Mr. March recommended he start with Winter volleyball as the school has hard
and fast amounts for what they charge to rent the space and for janitorial and
other costs. He said volleyball should be easy to determine costs and show the
City.
Mr. Bisek indicated he could work with Parks and Recreation to come up with a
time /cost system for maintenance of the ice rink and bring it to the Council.
Council Member Nelson questioned if Mr. Bisek would be working under Parks
and Recreation. Mr. Bisek indicated he was willing to work with Parks and
Recreation.
Council Member Sweeney indicated there was discussion about adding an
additional employee in the Parks and Recreation Department but they are not
currently ready; however, possibly in the future once the program is up and
running.

VIII. PETITIONS AND COMPLAINTS
Council Member Nelson stated she received a complaint from Dan Skoog who
complained he is sick and tired of dogs and cats running wild and going to the
bathroom in his yard. He said dogs are also being allowed to run around off leash
at the park. Council Member Nelson told him it was cost prohibitive to send a
flier to everyone in the City and agreed to recommend that Council request the
police be diligent in picking up strays.
Mr. Skoog also complained of many homes and yards needing maintenance in the
City. He had a few specific concerns on Peltier Lake Drive and Council Member
Nelson said she would recommend Council take a look to see if these properties
needed to be cited for ordinance violations.
Mayor Wilharber stated rather than have the Council drive around looking for
properties in violation of various ordinances it was normal procedure to have the
Public Works Director or the building inspector take a look and recommend
Council take action if they feel it is needed. He then stated he believes there are
senior citizens in town that need assistance with yard and house maintenance.
Maybe a volunteer group could be utilized to help them.
Mayor Wilharber stated he has already informed the police department to be on
the look out for strays and to pick them up.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated she is not interested in making the
determination of which houses are in need of repair and she would prefer the City
use the established procedure. She stated the newsletter should contain a note
about the leash law to remind the residents.
Council Member Sweeney said he would like to see the animal ordinance
enforced but indicated people need to be responsible to report them and follow
procedure.
Council Member Broussard Vickers agreed people need to take some of the
responsibility to [ change the situation.
Mr. March statl he told the caller that it was up to him to call the police and
report a stray dog in order to have it picked up.

IX. NEW BUSINESS
Encroachment onto the Wilharber Estate by the Contractor Without Permission.
•
Tom Wilharber, 6849 Centerville Road, addressed the Council and explained on
September 1, 2000 he discovered the contractor had encroached onto his mother's
property to install the sewer and water pipes for the Hunter's Crossing
Development and had taken out an area about 75 x 30 feet of field corn on the
property. Mr. Wilharber indicated the corn belongs to David Vickers, 6756
Centerville Road, as he is renting the property from the Wilharber estate. Mr.
Wilharber indicated the Wilharber Estate is not interested in providing an
easement to the City for their sewer and water lines. He then stated the Wilharber
Estate is requesting the City and the engineer on the project write a letter
admitting to the error and include payment for the loss of the field corn to be paid
to W. Wilharber who will reimburse David Vickers.
Mayor Wilharber abstained from comment on the matter.
Council Member Travis asked the City Engineer how the contractor ended up on
the Mayor's property. Mr. Peterson accepted responsibility for the mistake and
said it was a small area on a big job that accidentally slipped through the cracks
and indicated if there was a need for an easement a proper request should have
been made to the property owner. He apologized to the Mayor for not catching
the error previously.
�i IL jo
Mr. Peterson indicated Bonestroo and the developer thtty what is necessary to
restore the area to its original condition. They will put up silt fencing to prevent
erosion and make sure the grade matches. He indicated the property does tip to
the north and what ever water does run off will go through silt fence and drain
away from the property.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if there will be access for the
combine to enter the field to harvest the corn and City Engineer Peterson
indicated there would be room.
Motion by Council Member Sweeney, seconded by Council Member Nelson
to have the City Engineer write a letter of apology to the Wilharber Estate
and reimburse W. Wilharber in the amount of $10 for the loss of the field
corn. Motion carried. (Mayor Wilharber and Council Member Broussard
Vickers abstained).
Mound Trail Overweight Permit Request
The City Engineer indicated there should be no problem with allowing an
overweight concrete truck access to the development to pour footings and a
foundation as this is a perfect time of the year and should not harm the road.
Page 16 of 22
Motion by Council Member Sweeney, seconded by Broussard Vickers to
approve the overweight permit for construction on Mound Trail with the
stipulation that it be noted this is a one -time permit and that the developer
should not come to the City with a request in the Spring when it would
damage roads. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
2001 Fete ties Lacs Committee Structure (Ray Devine)
Mayor Wilharber read materials submitted by Ray DeVine proposing a formal
structure for the 2001 Fete des Lacs Committee.
Crnmcil Member Nelson questioned if the City should require committee
members have some connection to the community.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned how many people worked as a
group on the Festival last year. Council Member Sweeney state' twenty (20)
people or more in the beginning and down to twelve (12) or fewer as it
progressed. He indicated about six (6) members were actively involved at the
time of the festival.
Mr. DeVine stated he feels they need a seven (7) member core committee that can
work on the issues and make decisions and then get volunteers to actually assist
with the festival.
Council Member Sweeney stated he feels that if there is a core group there will be
minutes taken and there will be fewer conflicts in the process. He stated he feels
that this will not diminish the importance of the volunteers in any way but they
neea tormatity.
Mr. DeVine explained he was attempting to address the issue of hurt feelings of
those not on the committee and indicated there were subcommittees to be on if
someone is not on the formal committee, t f the
1 1
Council Member Sweeney questioned whether a longer term would be better. Mr.
DeVine said the celebration must be planned from the time it is over until the new
committee is in place and that is why the term was set as proposed. Mr. Hoeft
indicated once the term expires the committee members can stay in the seat until a
new appointee is in place or indefinitely if no new appointee is available.
Council Member Nelson questioned whether a budget was in place for the
committee or not. Mr. DeVine indicated he did not address the budget because
the committee was planning on the $5,000 donation from the City and whatever
they could raise themselves in donations.
Page 17 of 22
Council Member Nelson questioned if the committee could receive an accounting
of costs for the festival after the festival and Mr. DeVine indicated the committee
could provide an accounting to Council.
Mr. March indicated at several meetings they had only three (3) or four (4) people
at the meetings and had to decide things in order to proceed and that caused a
problem. He stated he would like to see a provision if key people start not
showing up they can be removed from the committee.
Motion by Council Member Nelson, seconded by Council Member Travis to
approve the Fete des Lacs Festival Committee by -laws.
Council Member Sweeney indicated he would like a rough draft of the proposed
committee formed and presented to Council. He also indicated he disagrees with
requiring committee members to live or have a business in Centerville in order to
participate.
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated she felt the seven (7) voting people
need to be a member of the community.
Council Member Sweeney would like to approve the forming of a committee and
forming by -laws. Mr. DeVine said he does not want to appoint members of the
committee.
Council Member Sweeney indicated the by -laws are a good start but said he does
not want to vote to approve them right now.
A consensus was reached by the Council to direct Mr. DeVine to get letters of
interest from those wanting to he nn the committee and firing the letters and hv-
laws to the Council for approval.
The previous motion and second were withdrawn.
Motion by Council Member Sweeney, seconded by Council Member Travis
to continue to recognize the Fete des Lacs Festival Committee as a seven (7)
member committee and to solicit letters of interest from interested parties for
consideration. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he feels if people are interested in helping out it
should not be closed to just members of the City.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked why the City needs to pay more to
lease space for parking this coming year. Mr. DeVine said they are going to
expand the festival and need more space. Mr. March said this would increase the
need for parking.s$rs.
I I
Page 18 of 22
Council Member Broussard Vickers inquired as to subletting land and if there
would be any kind of liability. Mayor Wilharber suggested the City approach the
church for an option to lease more space for parking next year. Mr. March said
the City has a verbal lease with the church and just needed to iron a few things
out.
Motion by Council Member Sweeney, seconded by Broussard Vickers to
have Mr. March draft a letter to the church for Council approval. All in
favor. Motion carried unanimously.
Holiday Party
Motion by Council Member Travis, seconded by Council Member Sweeney
to approve holding the holiday party at Majestic Oaks aspresented. All in

Proposed Chain of Lakes YMCA
Mr. March presented information on a proposed Chain of Lakes YMCA to the
Council. He presented a document showing what it would cost Centerville over
the course of 5, 10 and 15 years. Also included was information on fundraising
plans to help fund the YMCA.
Council Member Sweeney questioned if Centerville would get the same benefits
as Lino Lakes is getting. He then indicated the City would have to make a
$250,000 donation to participate in the program.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if the YMCA would be held to
public standards or if they are a private company. Mr. Hoeft said he is uncertain
as to the structure of the business but thinks they are able to make certain
decisions that public entities cannot.
Mayor Wilharber stated the pros and cons of the project need to be considered
very carefully and weighed against the cost of having a shared facility versus
building a community center in Centerville.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he had spoken to the priest at St. Genevieve and was
told the church may be merging with the church in Hugo and they would remodel,
expand and perhaps there would be room for a community center on church
property. Mayor Wilharber said the priest would need to go to the church for
approval of the plan and then the archdioceses, but it may be a possibility if they
do a land swap with the City.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he would like to hold a workshop where the Council
would discuss what it would cost to build a community center.
Page 19 of 22
Council Member Sweeney indicated the YMCA had talked to the Parks and
Recreation Committee about having outdoor programs in Lamotte Park as part of
their community agenda.
Mayor Wilharber state he had spoken with the Mayor from Hugo who brought up
transportation to the YMCA and Mayor Wilharber agreed that a regular bus route
through the City should be established.

acceptable to the City and followed City plans.

sewer through the detention pond behind City Hall in order to treat the water. He
said he was wondering if there would be any benefit to directing the storm water
into the pond.
Mr. Palzer indicated the Rice Creek Watershed requires permits for 2.5 acres and
more. Mr. Peterson stated he would have to look into elevations and the amount
of water that currently flows into the pond before making a recommendation.
The previous motion and second withdrawn.
Motion by Council Member Nelson, seconded by Council Member Sweeney
to table the request of Lloyd Drilling to realign the storm sewer at 1873 Main

Subject: 20th Avenue- Bonine Excavating
Jim- Nancy Bovine called me on Thursday, September 14, 2000 about finaling the
20 Avenue Improvements project. As you are aware, the construction took place
in 1998, and we have been trying to resolve the punch list and change order items
with the contractor.
The last correspondence I have from Nancy is from March 10, 2000, where she was
requesting payment for 2 change order items- mega lugs in lieu of regular glands on
the water main; and time spent looking for existing steel casing pipes under the
road. These two items totalled $14,969.14. We were in disagreement on these
items, and no action was taken. When Nancy called last week, she said to forget
about the change orders and requested the City final out the project and pay the
remaining retainage.
Dan Schluender prepared the attached Request For Payment No. 7 /Final on
9 ecember 3 , 1999. The amounts represent only remaining retainage, totalling
$21,288.78. he total amount completed ($425,775.60) is $83,015.05 less than the
rigin ntract Amount of $508,790.65.
We recommend payment of $21,288.78 to Bonine Excavating, Inc., which is the 7
and Final Payment for the 20 Avenue Utility Improvements. Bonine is having credit
problems, so you will need to inquire to who the check should be made out to before
issuance.
If you have any questions, please call me at 651- 604 -4868.

RE : Storm Sewer Realignment - Lloyd Drilling (1873 Main Street)
As you may recall, Council previously discussed a request from Lloyd Drilling for
permission to realign storm sewer that exists at the property across the street from City
Hall. The current storm sewer runs between the existing vacant commercial lot and the
existing home at 1873 Main Street.
It has been determined that a Rice Creek Watershed District permit is not required for
this proposed work. City Engineer Tom Peterson has visited the site and has included an
attached letter that recommends granting approval for this work to be completed.

Re: storm sewer recommendation
Remarks: At the last City Council meeting, 1 was directed to research the possibility of treating storm I
water from this project in the existing pond behind City Hall. I have the following recommendation.
The proposed Office / Retail Center will create more runoff due to the additional impervious surfaces- ie.
Parking lot and building roof. It Is recommended that the east half of the site drain east towards Shad
Avenue This runoff can be collected In a storm sewer catch basin at Shad and Main, flow east in the ditch,
then flow south under the highway to an existing pond at the southeast corner of Main Street and the Fire
Station driveway. The water will be treated here, before continueing south to Clearwater Creek,
k� I
The west half of the site will receive adequate treatment on -site in the existing highway ditch and the
grassy area around the beehive catch basin at the north property line.
It will not be necessary to redirect the storm water, flowing hi the existing pipe south under the highway,
into the smaf pond south of the City Hall parking lot

RE : Northern Forest Products Tax Abatement
At the last Council meeting, we discussed a potential five -year tax abatement for a
proposed expansion of Northern Forest Products. Council seemed receptive to the idea,
but wanted more information and requested Paul McDowell's presence at the next
meeting.
At the time of this annotation, I have not received confirmation from Paul McDowell on
whether or not he will be able to attend the meeting. Mr. McDowell has been out of the
office from September 14'" and is returning to work on September 25`". I am anticipating
that Mr. McDowell will attend the meeting and discuss his proposed expansion.
I have been in contact with Carolyn Drude from Ehlers and she indicated that she is
willing to meet and discuss specific details of job goals and expansion values. I have
renoticed the public hearing for the October 11 meeting so that Council may gather
public input on a potential five -year tax abatement.

Apprehension
Dear Mr. March:
Capitol Security
The Circle Pines- Lexington Police Department has applied for grant funds from the Alcohol and
Driver & Vehicle Gambling Enforcement Division to conduct underage alcohol compliance checks within the
Services community. The police department completed the checks in May of 2000. The report from the Police
Department indicates that the above named establishment sold alcohol to an underage cooperating
Emergency individual during the compliance check.
Management/
Emergency
Response M. S. Chapter 340A.415 provides that the commissioner of Public Safety or the liquor license issuing
Commission authority may impose a civil penalty of not more than $2,000, or license suspension or revocation
against a liquor licensee for the sale of alcohol to a minor individual. The report from the Police
State Fire Department indicated no knowledge regarding a civil penalty being imposed by your city council
Marshal/ against the above named establishment for the underage violation. Based on that information, it our
peline safety understanding that no civil penalty has yet been imposed by your city council. If a civil penalty has
State Patrol been imposed, we would greatly appreciate that infomtation as soon as possible.
Traffic Safety The Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division strongly advises that local licensing officials handle
this civil penalty matter within their communities. If your city council does not assume the
responsibility for the civil penalty against the above named establishment within 90 days of the date of
this letter, the Alcohol and Gambling Enforcement Division is prepared to apply the provisions of M.
S. 340A.415 giving the commissioner the authority to impose a civil penalty against the liquor
establishment that failed the compliance check. $500 is the first time offense penalty that our office
routinely imposes against establishments that sell to minors, and is also our recommendation to cities
and counties that handle the matter themselves.
Please advise our office immediately regarding civil action taken by your city council against the above
named establishment, by faxing at 651- 297 -5259, or writing to Marlene Kjelsberg, 444 Cedar Street,
Suite 133, St. Paul, MN 55101.

MEMO
DATE : September 22, 2000
TO : Honorable Mayor and Council
FROM: Jim March
RE : St. Genevieve's Land Inquiry Letter
As instructed by Council at the last meeting, I have included a draft letter that could be
sent to the parish council members at St. Genevieve's. We can discuss this draft at the
meeting.
September 22, 2000
Father Tom Fitzgerald
St. Genevieve's Catholic Church
7087 Goif on Road
Centerville, MN 55038
Dear Father Fitzgerald:
The City of Centerville is currently examining downtown redevelopment and the need for
additional park property and community space within the City. We understand that the
Church of St. Genevieve is also involved in looking at the long -term needs of the parish.
Whether St. Genevieve's expands within the community, does nothing or combines with
another parish has community wide ramifications.
The City of Centerville would like to discuss available options with the church. We
would like to discuss the future of the old public works location, the potential
redevelopment of that entire block, feasibility of vacating the roadways near the church,
downtown redevelopment and the future of the agricultural property located north of
LaMotte Park.
The City currently does not have any plans focused on any of these items, but we would
like to examine the potential of these possibilities as we explore all of our available
options. We understand that many of the decisions would not be decided solely at the
local level and that the archdiocese would be involved in your planning efforts. Would it
be possible to have a joint meeting with the Centerville City Council and the Pastoral
Council/Administrative Council or whom you would deem appropriate to further discuss
some of these issues? We would be willing to host the meeting at City Hall. We look
forward to your response on this very important issue.
On behalf of the City Council,
Jim March
City Administrator
