PREVIOUS ACTION: No previous action as there has never been a request. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Council permission to cover expenses and allow Chief to attend Conference. . FISCAL IMP ACT: The following is a breakdown of the estimated cost to attend the IACP Conference. Room: $870.00, Air: $370.00, Registration: $220.00, Total approx. $1460.00. This does not include meals. COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS: The International Police Chiefs Conference is held once a year somewhere in the United States. People from all over the United States and the world come for excellent training and networking. Areas of education this year will range from leadership training to Homeland Security to the latest in technology and how to use it. There will he exhibiters showing the latest in equipment and computer software. There is also time to network with other chiefs. This I find is at time the most important part of the conference. It gives me time to exchange ideas with other chiefs who have had or are dealing with the same problems I do. When taking this position, the Council agreed to allow me to attend this conference every other year budget permitting. This will be the first conference that I have requested to attend. I did budget for this in 2005. . 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM Delegate Registration 1 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM IACP Lounge 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Exhibitor Registration 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM Workshops and Education Sessions 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM International Hospitality 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM Opening Ceremony 8:00 AM 5:00 PM Committee/Section/ Division Meetings 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM Delegate Registration 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM Exhibitor Registration - 5:00 PM 9:30 AM 4:00 PM 4:00 PM 5:00 PM International Hospitality Delegate Registration IACP Lounge Exhibitor Registration 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM First General Assembly """~~....,.~~"""'~' "-~~=-MW 1II'iWila''''-~~~llT~ ~"'I,.l!3",vkn i':";: "~5~O " "l\7;'~, ~."nB " ."

I Attachment: Yes or No REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Northland Heights - Preliminary Plat DATE: June 16,2005 Administration ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT DEPARTMENT APPROVAL AGENDA ITEM Northland Heights - Preliminary Plat PREVIOUS ACTION The Planning Commission considered the Preliminary Plat for Northland Heights on May 16, 2005. At that hearing the Planning Commission concurred with staff that access from Northland Heights to CR 133 is in the best interest of public safety. The proposed housing development contains 154 single family homes, generating approximately 1600 trips per day. The intersection at Northland Drive cannot accommodate the additional traffic and both the City and County Engineer have identified that access to CR 133 is crucial. The Council Engineer has requested that the connection to CR 133 be constructed with phase one. The City agrees the access is needed but would agree that the connection does not need to be completed until one of the later phases. The matter was tabled at this meeting and a recommendation was forwarded to the Council to consider utilization of the eminent domain proceedings for the ROW if an agreement could not be reached with the affected property owners. On June 2,2005 the City Council passed resolution 2005-14 authorizing eminent domain for the ROW if an agreement cannot be reached with the property owners. Ted Schmid was also required to execute an agreement whereby he would pay all costs for the ROW acquisition. This agreement has been executed. On June 6, 2005 the Planning Commission re-considered the Preliminary Plat and recommended the Council approve the plat with conditions. That motion is included in following this page and has been prepared by Tom Jovanovich. RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION Accept the recommendation of the Planning Commission FISCAL IMP ACT COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS The Planning Commission finds that the Northland Heights plat does not have access to a collector or arterial street. The plat when fully developed will create 154 residential homes, which will have to obtain . ingress and egress from the plat through existing residential neighborhoods. The Planning Commission finds'that this amount of vehicle traffic in an existing residential area will create public safety issues. Accordingly, the preliminary plat is approved with the following conditions to insure that the Developer provides appropriate access to an arterial road by September 30, 2008. Without these conditions the plat would not be approved." Minnesota law allows for approval of plats with conditions as part of the approval. MN ST 462.358, Subd. 3b requires y that the conditions of preliminary plat approval be "express". The developer may proceed once the conditions are met through performance or by executing agreements assuring performance of the conditions. The preliminary plat of Northland Heights is hereby approved subject to the following conditions: (1) The City obtains the necessary right of way to allow access from the platted property to County Road 133 at the Developer's expense. (2) The Developer shall construct or pay the costs of construction of the road and the underground utilities to County Road 133. (3) The Developer may proceed with final platting of Phase 1 of the development if it enters into a written agreement satisfactory to the City which shall assure the Developer's performance of conditions 1 and 2. Phase 1 consists of Block 1, Lots 1-6, Block 2, Lots 1-28, Block 3, Lots 1-30, Block 4, Lots 1-16, Block 5, Lots 1-3 and Block 6, Lots 1-5. (4) The Developer may not proceed with final platting of Phase 2 of the development consisting of Block 2, Lots 29-36, Block 5, Lots 4-16, Bock 6, Lots 6-27, Block 7, Lots 1-9, Block 8, Lots 1-13, and Block 9, Lots 1-5, until such time as conditions 1 and 2 are met. . (5) If the Developer does not proceed with Phase 2 by January 1, 2008, then the Developer shall complete the construction of the road and underground utilities by September, 30, 2008." . z o JJ JJl ~r ~ \) [ ,Q)" ()( ,n" A - 7, , (' ['0 nn" nA ,1 c:. 7 n,nl:m " ..~ t,..,:'.):.' , ~ I I ~2ill , 1-...]:_- -HQ j "1). q,. )..

AGREEMENT This Agreement is entered into this 24 day of May, 2005, by and between the City of St. Joseph, a Minnesota municipal corporation (hereinafter the "City"), and Lumber One Development Company, LLC., a Minnesota limited liability company (hereinafter "Lumber One"). Recitals: 1. Lumber One has submitted a preliminary plat for approval by the City for a residential development known as Northland Heights ("Development"). 2. The City has determined that because of the number of homes proposed in the Development, right of way access from the Development to County Road 133 will be required to alleviate traffic safety issues on Northland Drive. 3. The property encompassed by the Development is not adjacent to County Road 133. Additional land is required. 4. The City is willing to obtain the property necessary for the right of way by exercise of eminent domain. S. Lumber One is willing to pay for all costs associated with obtaining the right of way property. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants expressed herein, IT IS HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS: 1. The City shall determine the legal description for the necessary right of way acquisition and shall negotiate the purchase with the affected property owner(s). In the event that a negotiated purchase agreement cannot be reached, the City shall proceed with acquisition of the property by eminent domain. It is estimated that one acre( s) of property will be needed for the right of way. 2. Lumber One shall pay all costs, including but not limited. to survey costs, the acquisition price or condemnation award, legal fees and costs, and recording fees, relative to the acquisition of the right of way needed to provide access from the Development to County Road 133. 3. Lumber One shall deposit with the City a cash escrow or letter of credit in the amount of $ 0.00 as security for the costs of the acquisition. The City shall provide Lumber One with invoices on a monthly basis. Lumber One shall pay the invoices within 15 days of receipt. In the event that Lumber One does not timely pay the invoices, the City may draw down the security to pay such invoices. 4. Lumber One agrees that the acquisition of the right of way is reasonable and necessary due to the number of residences proposed in the Development and the resulting impact they will have on Northland Drive. 5. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by Lumber One except upon obtaining the express written consent of the City. 6. This Agreement may not be amended, changed, or modified without the express, written consent of the parties hereto. . 7. Governed by Minnesota Law.

Prior to construction, the Developer will completely remove the existing turkey barns, any underground foundations and accessory structures located throughout the first phase of proposed improvements. According to the Developer, there are no known underground tanks or any soil contaminations, and as such, is not covered in this report. There is not any demolition of existing structures covered in the scope of this project. The property is bordered by agricultural land to the north and west, with wooded parcels to the south and east. There is a large portion of wetland that runs through the property and ultimately connects and drains to a larger wetland located to the south of the proposed plat.

I June 10, 2005 5.0 Proposed Improvements 5.1 Sanitary Sewer Collection System An 8..,inch PVC gravity sanitary sewer (Figure 3) will serve all lots within the proposed subdivision. The proposed gravity sewer will connect to an existing sanitary sewer stub located on Iris Lane (Northland Plat 6), which ultimately feeds to the lift station located on Northland Drive in the northeast comer of Northland Park. A 4-inch PVC sanitary sewer service will be provided to all lots. Sanitary sewer will be constructed within the public street's right-of-way, with the exception of a stretch of sewer located within a drainage and utility easement that runs between Iris Lane and Hawthorne Loop. Sanitary sewer will be stubbed out for future phases. 5.2 Water Supply Proposed water main improvements (Figure 3) will consist of 8-inch ductile iron water main. The water main will connect to the existing 8-inch stub(s) located on Jasmine Lane (Northland Plat 8) and Iris Lane (Northland Plat 6). The Developer will be required to obtain easements along the proposed Jasmine Lane between the existing Northland Plat 8 and the proposed Northland Heights Phase 1 in order to install water main through this area and loop into existing utilities. Fire Hydrants will be located approximately 500 feet apart for fIre protection and flushing purposes. One inch copper water service will be provided to all lots. 5.3 Streets, Grading and Drainage Proposed street improvements (Figure 4) consist of 36-foot wide streets on Jasmine Lane, Iris Lane, 13th Avenue and 14th Avenue. Iris Lane will connect to the existing Iris Lane which was constructed as part of the 2002 Northland Plat Six Improvements. The cul-de-sac, which services the east end of Northland Plat Six, will be removed and extended into the Northland Heights Development. Jasmine Lane will not be connected as a through street as a part of phase one, it will terminate at the west edge of phase one and will be extended at a later date. According to preliminary plat approvals, the street connection of Jasmine Lane to the existing Jasmine Lane in Northland Plat 8 will be constructed on or before the year 2008. The proposed pavement cross-section for these roadways consist of a 1.5-inch bituminous wear course, 2-inch bituminous non-wear course, 6-inches of Class V aggregate base and 18-inches of select granular borrow with geotextile fIlter fabric and draintile. The 18 inches of select granular borrow, geotextile fabric and drain tile will be used on sections of roadway where the existing roadway material is unsuitable for typical road construction. Concrete sidewalks, 6-feet wide arid 4-inches thick (6 inches thick at driveways), will be constructed along the south side of Iris' Lane which connect to existing sidewalk located on Northland Drive. A walkway path is also proposed to be located along lot lines between Iris Lane and future Hawthorne Loop. B618 concrete curb and gutter will be used throughout the development. Drainage will be accomplished through the use of curb and gutter and a storm sewer system (Figure 3). Runoff from the development and from adjacent properties abutting the plat will be collected by catch basins located Feasibility Report City of St. Joseph A-ST JOE 0503.01 Page 2 I .. I I I I I I I . I I I I I I I P I June 10,2005 throughout the development. The storm sewer system will carry storm water to the storm water ponds for treatment. The Developer will be required to obtain easements on the proposed phase 2 portion of the site. Grading operations will be required on phase 2 in order to construct the grading improvement on phase 1. 6.0 Right-of-Way All streets within the development will be generally centered within a 66-foot street right-of-way. Drainage and utility easements at least to-feet in width will be dedicated along public street right-of-way and at a minimum to-feet along lot lines where ever water main, sanitary sewer and storm sewer will be constructed. Drainage and utility easements along all other side and rear lot lines will be at least 5 feet in width. Storm water ponds will be located on outlots which will be dedicated to the City so they may be accessed and maintained by the City. 7.0 Cost Summary The costs presented below are the engineer's estimate in 2005 construction dollar. Table 1: Opinion of Probable Cost Item Construction CIEIL Total Site Grading and Street $997,751 $379,145 $1,376,896. Sanitary Sewer $329,665 $125,273 $454,938 Water Main $289,292 $to9,931 $399,223 Storm Sewer $192,432 $73,124 $265,556 Turf Establishment $82,775 $31,455 $114,230 Soil Borings $0 $1,595 $1,595 Total $1,891,915 $720,523 $2,612,438 Contingency, Engineering, Legal Fiscal and Administrative. 8.0 Estimates Lumber One Development, LLC has requested that the internal municipal improvements associated with Northland Heights be constructed as a fully assessed City project according to Minnesota Statues Chapter 429. The full cost of the project, including construction costs, engineering and legal and fmancial fees are to be assessed back to the Development. The total cost is divided up so the cost is assessed equally to the 88 lots. An additional $600/Lot will also be added to cover the lift station costs from the Northland Plat 5 Development.

This alternate to street widths would save approximately $500/lot. The total assessments per lot with the alternate street widths would be $29,803.

Since Schroeder has enough property to create two conforming lots, the improvement project was designed to accommodate a second home. Under the Ordinance property can be split once without platting, but only if the property is platted to begin with. Since Schroeder's property was not platted his required to complete the platting process. The Planning Commission conducted the required public hearing and recommended the Council approve the final and preliminary plat for Walz's Hilltop Acres Plat 2. RECOMMENDED PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION Accept the recommendation of the Planning Commission and approve the preliminary and final plat as presented. COMMENTS/RECOMMENDA TIONS Since this plat was prepared with the assistance ofthe City Engineer, the plat is complete and there are not outstanding issues. The plat has been reviewed by the Department Heads without comment. r--------~-- I I I I I I , , I , , , I , , , , , , I , , , , , , , , , , , I , , , , , , , , , , I , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , I , , , , , , , I , I , , , , , , , , , , , I I , , ~ 1 .5....la lla~ .r~~m ~.,,,..- ~~;! : . ;; ! !2 ~ h ~ Q..; ~ U ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ f'.) ~ ~ I t~ ! ~: . .t I'" lrr~~ ..;'ti! nlf "H · ~~8 I 8'~ ?~~ I I 1 ~~:.----------------! , , I I , I ~, ., ", , , , , , , I , , , , , L JL"SOZM .SZ.J..O.OO S MS 3nN3^V a~\: i7 !i o' o' ~i5 0' I'l~ ~ ~ 1, Z ;:::. ~ OJ , \.:~..

JOSEPH .. www.cityofstjoseph.com June 13, 2005 Honorable Mayor and Member of the City Council: I would like to propose a Hydrant Replacement or Hydrant Upgrade Program. The reason for the program is that there are a few hydrants that date back to 1949-1959 and are not scheduled for replacement or future updates. Most of these hydrants aren't the traffic breakaway type and have a 4" pumper nozzle. A standard hydrant has a 4%" pumper nozzle and a 2-2%" nozzle. Estimated cost of the program is $30-35,000. I would suggest that the program be completed within 3-5 years. Dick Taufen Sup of Public Works 2.') College Avenue North, PO Box 668 . Saint. Joseph.

I Attachment: Yes or No REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Verizon - Antenna Lease DATE: June 16, 2005 ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT DEPARTMENT APPROVAL AGENDA ITEM Verizon Lease Agreement - Antenna PREVIOUS ACTION The City had a lease with Cellular 2000, leasing space on the tower for antennas and ground space for the required cabinets. RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION Accept the request of Verizon to relocate the existing cabinets near the water storage facility authorizing the Mayor and Administrator to execute a lease agreement. The location of the shelter will be determined by the City Engineer and Public Works Director FISCAL IMPACT COMMENTS/RECOMMENDATIONS Verizon has since assumed the lease from Cellular 2000 and is requesting to remove the existing equipment, located new equipment and house such in a structure. The City is bound to the existing lease and placing the cabinets in a structure certainly makes more sense. Originally their request included addition land and we informed Verizon that with the W obegon Center we do not wish to lose any additional land. If they are allowed to replace the existing equipment, the land space by using an enclosure will actually be smaller. I will forward by email colored photos of the proposed shelters. As you can see from the email they have agreed to increase the monthly lease payment and build a stick structure if we so chose. Page 1 of 1 Judy Weyrens From: To: Sent: Subject: "Scott Watson" <scott@northlandneighbor.com> <jweyrens@cityofstjoseph.com> Wednesday, June 01, 2005 5:05 PM Verizon Wireless Water Tower equipment replacement .~ Dear Judy, Thankyou for taking the time to meet with me this morning. Following our meeting I had my weekly conference call with Verizon, and they were extremely disappointed that we had "taken a step backwards" and no longer have a clear idea of where the shelter is to be located. Although I don't completely agree with that assessment, since the lease assumption March 1 st I have not gotten the City to progress on any of the issues that stand in the way of the removal and replacement of the existing equipment. In hopes of spurring significant progress, I have been authorized by Verizon to up the rent to $1,000.00 per month (nearly double the current rent). This increase is being offered only if the installation portion of the project can be transmitting by the end of July. This would require City approval in the next 3 weeks. In addition, Verizon is willing to build a "park-like" shelter with a peaked roof and exterior facade rather than use one ofthe pre-fab shelters we have been discussing (this is considerably more costly). I am hoping that these incentives not only meet the Cities desire maintain the visual aspects of the area at the base of the tower, but that the additional income can also help fund some of the other projects you mentioned - such as the parking lot. Please contact me at your earliest opportunity to let me know a realistic time frame in the City's eyes' to project for the installation. Thank you. .~ Regards, ~ Scott Scott Watson Northland Neighbor Realty, Inc. yyww.northlandneighbor.com Phone - 612-408-4168 Fax - 612-724-2955 . 6/14/2005 . ~~ ~~E ~ g J a~~ ~I:; I; ~~~~~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ 0 ~~~~~ e~8 ~~ i i i;~5~~ ~'~g % 0 2 ~U~~~ ~1!5~ ~~i ~ J i~~;~~ e ~ e'5 ~ 5"-~~~ ~~~~ ~~> ~ ~ ~~~ w ~~l!~ ~~~~ ~ ~ l~t~li El 8 8131!i1 N ~i d ;;If 5".r15 m:i/ ~!ii 15~3"" "'0 tf~ ~ :;~ ~~ %% j,!

There have been several exciting developments on the Northstar Commuter Rail project over the past several months, leading to significant progress toward making Northstar a reality. I would like to provide you with an update on the project. State Approves First Step of Funding for Northstar Commuter Rail With overwhelming support from legislators from all parties and areas of the state, the 2005 Legislature voted in favor of state funding for Northstar Commuter Rail. On April 11, Governor Pawlenty signed into law the $886 million bonding bill that includes $37.5 million for Northstar Commuter Rail. This is the first time significant state funding for Northstar has been approved by the Minnesota Legislature. Passage of the bonding bill this year was vital to the future of Northstar Commuter Rail. The previous lack of state funding jeopardized the project's standing with the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and delayed important progress on the project. The strong support from legislative leaders and the Governor sends a clear signal to the FT A that Minnesota is committed to Northstar and is worthy of a federal investment in the project. Next Steps The coming months will be busy as the Northstar Corridor Development Authority (NCDA) and the Minnesota Department of Transportation continue work on the project. The state funding allows for significant project advancements including: · Application to the FTA for final design approval, regaining a "Recommended" rating and accessing highly competitive federal matching funds. · Proceeding with major engineering, design and property acquisition. · Continuing negotiations on construction and operating agreements with BNSF Railway Company. We anticipate making steady progress as we head into the 2006 legislative session. The NCDA and other project backers will be seeking the final state commitment needed to complete construction on Northstar, which is currently estimated to be $51 million in bonding. This state funding is in addition to the $44.2 million committed locally by the NCDA and the anticipated federal match of $132.5 million. While there is more to be done before Northstar is operational, the overwhelming support for Northstar this year is a positive sign for the future. We are pleased to see the project moving forward and are optimistic about gaining the remaining state and federal funding that will get Northstar up and running to deliver relief to Minnesota commuters. If you would like to know more about Northstar or learn about ways you can help advance the Northstar project, please contact the NCDA at (763) 323-5729 or at 1-888478-6782.

The most obvious mistakes are that the City of St. Joseph was not a party to the unlawful detainer action and Kevin Carpenter did not represent the City of St. Joseph. In essence, the Court denied the landlord's request to evict the tenants and held that the landlord should have appealed or requested reconsideration of the Court's decision in the first eviction action, rather than bring a second eviction action. Although the landlord lost the unlawful detainer action, I believe the landlord's attorneys made good faith efforts in attempting to evict the tenants. We are still a party to the complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief entitled Carpenter v. City of St. Joseph, et aI., Court File No. C3-05-1445. Attorney Carpenter brought this action seeking an injunction alleging that St. Joseph's noise ordinance was unconstitutional. The Court did not address the constitutionality of St. Joseph's noise ordinance in the unlawful detainer action. Since the Court issued its decision in the underlying unlawful detainer action, most of the issues in our case have been rendered moot. I spoke with Attorney Carpenter and am working to have him voluntarily dismiss this case against us. If he will not dismiss us from this action, I will bring a motion seeking dismissal of the case. I will keep you posted of any developments in this case. AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY/AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER _____06/06/05 10:12 FAX 13202524482 GRAY PLANT MOOTY Ial003 :c .. ~. :...- '-' '-' .

Stat. ~ S04B.321. Edward J. Laubach, Jr. appeared on behalf of plaintiff Rock Investments, LLC. and Kevin S. Cmpenter appeared on behalf of defendants City of St. Joseph, etc. al. Having duly considered the matter, the court now makes the following: FINDINGS OF FACT 1. In Court File Number C7 -05-816 the plaintiff sought to ev;ct the defendants because of two (2) separate noise violations. The complaint seeking the eviction Was filed on February 24, 2005. Although it does not specifically state the dates, tlle court presumes that all parties agree that the second violation was the incident that this court heard testimony about on Febru.ary 20,2005. . .~, .. . .

The officer testifioo he could hear noise in the parking lot... Although there was a noise complaint made to the police, no complairiant testified. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 1. This court does not know if the February rent was paid before or after FebIilary 20, 2005. If it was paid before February 20, 2005 this court questions how acceptance of rental payment before the act complained of could be considf..-rOO a waive,[". However, based on ~s same incident, the District Court has already ruled that a waiver occurred. Th~ if pL1intiff 5 acceptance for rent is a waiver of a noise violation, it is also, as a matter of law, a waiver of any other violation that occurred at the same time, including, but not limited to, permitting a mino.r to consume alcoholic beverages. Additionally, even if the consumption by the minor occurred on a different date. the issue needed to be raised in C7-05-816, if the incident occurred before plaintiff began the eviction proceedings. 2. ~suming the rent was paid before February 20, 2005, the proper procedure was to appeal or request reconsideration pursmmt to the Minnesota Rules of Civil Procedure. If the court's Order on March 10, 2005 should have been titled as a judgment ~ appellate purposes, the court could have previously addressed that issue jn response to a letter for reconsideration and made any adjustments necessary to appeal that ruling. 3. Although the noise violation was not proven, plaintiff did show there were minors on the premises consuming alcohol. However, no further ruling on that issue is necessary because it had to be raised at the eviction action in file C7-05-816. 2 06/06/05 10:12 FA!.!3202S24482 .: "--.. ,. ~ "-..../ GR4:LPJANT MOOTY IlJ 005 "'-..I' e Now, having duly considered the arguments and memoranda of counsel, the documents and proceedings herein, togetberwith the applicable Jaw, this Court herebyxnakes the following: ORDER 1.

You will need to discuss this with Stearns County Highway Department since the County Road 121' Street Improvement Project was designed, inspected, and administered by Stearns County Highway Department. The portion of the project that was designed by the City's engineer was the water and sewer improvements. The City has passed on your complaint to the County and they will be contacting you to discuss your complaints. I would like to note that during this construction season there is additional storm water draining into the gutter on County Road 121 due to construction on Iverson Street. Storm water runoff from Iverson Street drains into catch basins along that street. However, since the final lift of pavement has not been installed, some of the storm water runoff is not able to enter the catch basin and runs into the County Road 121 gutter. This additional runoff from Iverson Street will be eliminated once Iverson Street final lift of pavement is installed after this construction season. . Thank you for your patience in this matter and especially during the construction projects on Hill Street and Iverson Street. Sincerely, ~'ff /fb-- Tracy L.

A Letter from the President CGMC President John Ellenbecker Mayor, City of St. Cloud The Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities lobbied on multiple fronts in the Legislature this year in an effort to restore lost funding for Local Government Aid, fmd money for economic develop- ment, produce a balanced transportation program, pro- tect the state's water inventory and defend the annexation rights of our cities. Our efforts met with varying degrees of success. We won on some issues and lost on others. Still other issues will be addressed by the Legislature during its special session. When the 2005 Legislature convened in January, leg- islators talked openly of bipartisan cooperation. The coalition sought to foster that bipartisanship among rural House mem- bers. Working with Reps. Dan Dorman, R- Albert Lea, and Paul Marquart, DFL- Dilworth, we helped organize an informal working group of rural House Democrats and Republicans. We believed that a rural coalition of legislators working together to resolve common issues would have a pro- found impact on the day-to-day dynamics of the Minnesota House. The experiment was only modestly successful. We were able to present our ideas to. a large number of Republicans and Democrats, and they, in turn, discussed them at length. But on the floor of the House, bipartisan cooperation frequently gave way to caucus politics. When Marquart sought to close corporate tax loop- holes and use the revenue to increase LGA funding by $66 mil- lion, the amendment failed on a 67-67 tie. The House DFL and Dorman supported the amendment. Other rural Republicans - some of whom had privately expressed support for the LGA proposal- sided with their caucus leaders and voted against the property tax relief amendment. House Republicans, instead, produced a tax bill that cuts Local Government Aid funding by $17.5 million. While the House tax bill offers increased LGA funding to some greater Minnesota cities, it does so by undercutting the pro- gram's long-term viability. The bill cuts $27.5 million from the LGA allocations for Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth and gives $10 million from the savings to other cities in the pro- gram. Clearly, the House strategy is designed to weaken the consortium of cities that receive tax equalization assistance. In a letter to all House legislators, the coalition characterized the LGA provision as a step towards dismantling the program. In the Senate, meanwhile, the CGMC successfully promoted formula changes and $86 million in new funding for Local Government Aid. With assistance from many of Qt. members, we made a strong case for the new funding and for making the aid distribution formula more responsive to the needs of our cities. On transportation funding, we fought for increasing the gas tax by as much as 10 cents a gallon and increasing the license tab fees. Like many transportation advocates, we were convinced that Minnesota was falling $1 billion a year short of meeting its transportation needs. We insisted, however, that a constitu- tional amendment not be used as a mecha- nism to increase the gas tax, funding contin- ue to be split evenly between projects in rural Minnesota and the Twin Cities metropolitan area, and existing sales tax revenue not be dedicated to funding transit. The coalition opposed the House transportation bill because it dedicated a quarter percent of sales tax raised in the Twin Cities to transit. We argued that use of existing sales tax revenue for transit would create a hole in the general fund that would have to be filled with highway revenue. Moreover, it would have created a two-tier general sales tax in Minneso.. 6.5 percent for greater Minnesota taxpayers, and 6.25 perce for taxpayers in the Twin Cities. (continued on page 2) "We won on some issues and lost on others. Still other issues will be addressed by the Legislature during its special session. 11 www.greatermncities.org . June 3, 2005 Prepared by Flaherty & Hood, P.A. for the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities President's Letter continued from page 1 . While many rural Republicans 'rted our position, many rural Democrats opposed it. One rural Democrat angrily accused us of siding with the MinnesotaTaxpayers League and Republicans, saying, "I wish the CGMC would have sided with us rather than the Minnesota Chamber, the Taxpayers League and the Grand 01' Party." The transportation bill passed both the House and Senate. Even though Gov. Tim Pawlenty eventually vetoed the bill, a little-known provision - a proposed constitutional amendment - survived. The amendment calls for com- pletetransfer of the Motor Vehicle Sales Tax from the general fund to transporta- tion funding. According to the amend- ment, "no less than" 40 percent of the sales tax proceeds can be used for transit, and "no more than" 60 percent of the revenue can be used for highways. If voters approve the amendment, transit programs theoretically could receive all of the sales tax proceeds. Rural House Republicans and Democrats did work cooperatively for rural economic development during the regular legislative session. As a result, the coalition made significant strides in securing economic development funding for greater Minnesota. In the final House-Senate bonding bill, we received $10 million for a business infrastructure matching grants program and $7.5 mil- lion for a rural redevelopment program. With assistance from many of our members, the League of Minnesota Cities and the Minnesota Association of Small Cities, we successfully fended off township efforts to weaken the state's annexation law. When township lobby- ists pressed the House Local Government Committee to approve an annexation moratorium, the committee simply tabled the issue. By working together, we have made our voices heard on Local Government Aid, annexation, economic development, environment and trans- portation. While some of those issues still must be resolved in a special legis la- tive session, legislators - Democrats and Republicans - know where we stand on issues critical to greater Minnesota. (f-O~ Despite Mediation, Townships Introduce Bills After failed mediation sessions between city and township lobbyists and the resolution of two large annexa- .~, townships put considerable pres- " on the Legislature last session to pass legislation restricting a city's right to grow. While the Senate Local Government Committee, chaired by Sen. Linda Higgins, DFL-Minneapolis, only held one informational hearing on the issue, annexation was a hot topic in the House Local Government The House Local Government Committee heard all of the bills. After a strong, joint lobbying effort by the coalition, the League of Minnesota Cities and the Minnesota Association of Small Cities, the committee tabled all of the annexation issues. Olson, interested in brokering a deal between city and township groups, is considering holding interim annexation meetings this 'summer in various cities across the state. Committee, chaired by Rep. Mark Olson, R-Big Lake. The Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities presented its analysis of Annexation Issues in Greater Minnesota, which revealed that the current annexation laws impede growth and development in cities and contribute to environmental degradation. Several township-sponsored bills were introduced late in the legisla- tive session. The coalition responded by introducing two of its own bills. 2005 Bills Addressing Annexation and Land Use Issues: HF 1971 (Nelson, P., R-Lindstrom)/S.F. 1867 (Tomassoni, DFL-Chisholm): "Alternative local government annexation process provided." CGMC opposed, HF 2443 (Nelson, P., R-Lindstrom): Repeals current annexation-by-ordinance procedures and contested case process; creates an "alternative annexation process." CGMC opposed. HF 2437 (Anderson, B., R-Buffalo Township): Places a one-year moratorium on any contested annexation outside the metro area and any property-owner petitioned annexation. CGMC opposed. HF 2060 (Liebling, DFL-Rochester): Would create a land use advisory council to monitor the state's annexation issues, repeal 60 acre limit on property-owner petitioned annexations, and streamline the annexation process for land that is clearly urban or suburban or about to become so. CGMC supported. HF 2061 (Lanning, R-Moorhead): Would limit development in townships and would allow city land use regulations to extend up to two miles outside city limits. CGMC supported. Property Tax Relief Unresolved in State Budget The 2005 legislative session ended with the House and Senate, Republicans and Democrats miles apart on taxes, the state budget and Local Government Aid funding~ When the session convened in January, the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities had a simple goal: restore $60 million of the $150 million that was cut from the property tax relief program in 2003. By May 23 when the regular legislative session ended, only the Senate had earmarked $86 million to increase funding for LGA. In contrast, the House tax bill cut $17.5 million from the city aid program. As a result, House and Senate negotiators must find a compromise during the special legislative session that bridges the $100 million difference. The coalition proposed and had hearings on the One Minnesota Act in both the House and Senate tax committees during the regular legisla- tive session. The legislation - authored by Rep. Greg Davids, R-Preston, and Sen. Tom Bakk, DFL-Cook, and sponsored by over twenty other legislators - would have increased funding for LGA, education and transit. A portion of the statewide Motor Vehicle Sales Tax that is now used to fund local tran- sit programs would have been returned to the general fund to fund two statewide programs, LGA and schools. The legislation would have increased metro transit funding $60 million a year by authorizing a half-cent region- al sales tax, a growing revenue source that is more stable than the sales tax on cars and trucks. While the bill was positively received by the Minneapolis Star Tribune and the news media in greater Minnesota, it encountered consider- able resistance from some suburban and urban legislators. They main- tained that the state must continue to rely on the Motor Vehicle Sales Tax for transit funding. House Democrats did show strong support for LGA funding, how- ever, by unanimously supporting a tax bill amendment offered by Rep. Paul Marquart, DFL-Dilworth. Marquart sought to close corporate tax loopholes to generate a $66 million funding increase for LGA. . Rep. Dan Dorman, R-Albert Lea, joined the House DFL in voting Mayor Larry Buboltz, Detroit Lakes, testifies with Rep. Paul Marquart, DFL-Dilworth, in committee. (photo courtesy House Photography) Poster courtesy Senate DFL caucus for the CGMC-backed amendment. All other Republicans voted to protect the corporate tax loopholes, and the amendment failed on a,67-67 vote. The House tax bill did increase Local Government Aid funding fO. some greater Minnesota cities, but did so by hurting the long-term viabil- ity of the property tax relief program. The House cut $27.5 million from the LGA that. Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth receive and used $10 million from the savings to increase aid to other cities in the program. In exchange, the three first-class cities were to be given authority to use a local option sales tax to fund their government operations. If passed into law, the House plan would further divide cities and lessen support for LGA and cities. The coalition strongly opposed the House tax bill and wrote a letter to all House members expressing its con- cern that the LGA provision was a step towards dismantling the program. . :' ' , " , a LGA Proposal Comparison for CGMC Cities 2006 LGA Pro Is Com . nson .

While the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities supports the overall goal of water protection, the coalition believes that the process used to devel- op TMDLs must be fair, open and based on good science. Moreover, state funds should be made available to help cities meet the new environmental mandates. The CGMC opposed the Clean Water Legacy Act because the legisla- tion failed to address the coalition's three primary concerns: Grants, not loans. The CGMC argued that funding for com- pliance of TMDLs should be in the form of grants, not loans, so that cities would get actual relief from unfunded mandates. As a result of the CGMC's efforts, a TMDL matching grant pro- gram was added to the legislation, although it received no funding. No, unfair fees. The CGMC maintained that the fees imposed by the Clean Water Legacy Act were regressive taxes, not user fees. The CGMC supported proposals that would have funded clean water activities with appropriations from the general fund. No third party TMDLs. The CGMC was very concerned about pro- visions in the bill that would allow any public or private entity to develop a TMDL. The CGMC argued that pri- vate, special-interest groups - groups that may be influenced by a political agenda rather than good science - should not be allowed to write the mandates that will be imposed on cities. As a result of the CGMC's efforts, some improvements were made to both the House and Senate versions of the bill. In spite of the progress, the CGMC's concerns have not been adequately addressed and the coalition remains opposed to the bilL CGMC Environment Committee Co-Chair Mayor Tom Kuntz, Owatonna, joins Rep. Morrie Lanning to testify against unfunded mandates. (photo courtesy House Photography) When the Senate passed the Clean Water Legacy Act late in the reg- .' ar session, lawmakers also voted to pose new total maximum daily load (TMDL) mandates on cities that could cost them millions of dollars in waste- water treatment upgrades and could stall economic development in many cities. The House adjourned without bringing the environmental legislation to 'the floor, but the bill still could be part of the Legislature's special-session agenda. The bill's aim is to clean up Minnesota's water by imposing new TMDL standards (the level of pollu- tion a body of water can accommodate without suffering environmental dam- age) on wastewater discharges. Proponents of the bill maintain that the legislation authored by Rep. Dennis Ozment, R-Rosemount, and Sen. Dennis Frederickson, R~New DIm, is needed to help Minnesota comply with ~ederal clean water rules passed in "72. The legislation would impose approximately $80 million a year in fee increases on wastewater customers throughout Minnesota. Revenue gen- erated by the fees would go into a Sen. David Senjem, R-Rochester, authored a CGMC-supported amendment that tied new phosphorus standards to TMDL reports. (photo courtesy Senate Media Services) 8 ' , ' , " , _ J, { , ! CGMC Fights for Fair Education Funding Education was a hot topic in the beginning days of the session, with the House increasing its funding level above the governor's and the Senate topping both of them. In January, the Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities proposed increasing school funding by at least three percent a year for the next two years. The coalition argued that K-12 education - its funding sharply cut in 2003 to help balance the state's budget - was entitled to a genuine increase in state support, rather than a funding increase created by shifting money from one program or region to another. While the level of school fund- $800 . $700 $600 $500 $400 $300 $200 $100 $- ing normally is not one of the coali- tion's primary concerns, fair funding is. The coalition opposes legislation that aggravates the disparities that already exist in school property taxes and school quality. Funding Local Government Aid to create greater bal- ance among city levies will not ensure tax fairness if school funding is allowed to be pushed onto the local districts. In the special legislative ses- sion, the coalition is supporting the Senate education bill because it pro- vides for a 5 percent formula increase in school funding in the first year and a 4 percent increase in the second year of the biennium. Moreover, the Senate bill pays for the new funding without raising school property taxes, shiftin. school payments, or further aggravat. ingthe disparities in taxes and educa- tional opportunities. Plans offered by the governor and House foster uneven increases in local property taxes and delay pay- ments to school districts. The school property tax increases will only magni- fy the tax disparities in Minnesota. Payment delays create cash-flow prob- lems for school districts and only delay state budget problems. The school plans proposed by the governor and the House put valuable programs at risk in the future.

NOTE: House plan could reduce one-time shift and increase state aid with $134 million in gambling revenue; governor' overall budget included $200 million from gambling revenue.

Rep. Tony Sertich, DFL- Chisholm, carried our legislation that would have provided $14 million for a business infrastructure grants program and $10 million for redevelopment grants in greater Minnesota. In the Senate, the funding was incorporated into the bonding bill authored by Sen. Keith Langseth, DFL-Glyndon. Rep. Morrie Lanning, R- Moorhead, and Sen. Tom Saxhaug, DFL-Grand Rapids, offered coalition- proposed legislation that would have earmarked $20 million for matching grants to cities facing new environ- mental mandates. Both the House and Senate bills received strong bi-partisan support from greater Minnesota legisla- tors. The final bonding bill included $10 million for outstate business infra- structure grants, $8.4 million for greater Minnesota redevelopment grants, and $2 million for environmen- tal mandate grants. Langseth and Rep. Dan Dorman, R-Albert Lea - chairs of the Senate and House bonding committees - supported funding for the coalition's programs. As chairs of the two com- mittees, they were instrumental in pro- ducing a compromise bonding bill with an urban-rural balance. 5744M $780 M $916 M $886 M Program Governor House Senate Final bill Bm Bill Env'ironrnental Mandate Grants $0 $10 M $3 M $2 ~,,1 Greater Minnesota Business Infrastructure Grants $0 $5 M $14M $10 M Greater Minnesota Redevelopment Grants SOT $10 M $5M SBAM TOTALS $0 $25 M $22M $20-4 M . *While the governor's proposal included $10 million for the Minnesota Development Account, it did not earmark any dollars for greater Minnesota, Potentially, however, greater Minnesota projects could have qualified.for funds in the account. 10 , " .' . . ,. Highways Should Not be Sacrificed for Transit A projected $1 billion trans- portation shortfall in 2008 and this year's $60 million shprtfall in funding for metro transit left legislators scram- bling this sessign for ways to meet Minnesota's transportation needs. The Coalition of Greater Minnesota' Cities supported both a gas tax increase and an amendment that would have prevented the commission- er of transportation' from changing the formula for distributing federal high- way funds. The coalition opposed, howev- er, the transportation bill that Gov. Tim Pawlenty eventually vetoed. The bill represented poor tax policy that would have shortchanged roads and highways throughout greater Minnesota. Included in the bill was a plan to designate a quarter percent of the existing sales tax collected in the Twin Cities metro area for transit. This dis- proportionate, discriminatory taxing Rep. Bernie Lieder, DFL-Crookston, and Rep. Ron Erhardt, R-Edina, supported increasing transit funding. (photo courtesy House Photography) structure would have required taxpay- ers outside the metro area to pay a 6.5 percent sales tax for general fund pro- grams, while taxpayers in the Twin Cities would have paid only a 6.25 per- Metro Transit Funding 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 2001 I .

Moreover, the plan would have created a $100 million hole in the general fund. Money currently used for highways would have been rerouted to fill the general fund deficit. In addi- tion, the transportation bill would have given metro transit a windfall of $92 million more than its deficit at a time when funding for greater Minnesota roads is desperately needed. The CGMC's position angered many metro area legislators who are transit advocates. Coalition lobbyists regularly were pressured to drop their opposition to the transportation bill. The coalition, however, remains stead- fast in its opposition to increasing state funding for metro transit without rais- ing the state's 20-cent gas tax. Four years ago, the state of Minnesota picked up 27 percent of the operating costs for transit in the Twin Cities. Today the state pays 64 percent of the system's operational costs. Nationally, Minnesota ranks second in terms of its support of a regional mass transit system for populations over one million.

FROM: V/illiam Durrwachter 1416 Pond View Court St. Joseph,:MN 56374 . 320-363-7666 TO: (Citv,fTmvnship, County & State officials St. Joseph Newsleader . Sisters of St. Benedict Monastery WSB & Associates Copies to any interested parties e-mail: .durr@astound.net SUBJECT: St. Joseph Road Options SUGGESTION: Have a good Steams County map available to fully understand my suggestions and options. No fields, wetlands nor woods would have to be disturbed. With no N""EW roads, costs would be minimized. Let's have a look. There will be 2 areas considered, one on S1. Joe's south and southwest sides, the other on the north, northwest, and west sides. . . . . SOUTH & SOlJTHWEST of St. Joseph (including a better way to St. Cloud): The culprit? Roads that go nowhere, some to dead ends, some bending back upon themselves or other existing roads, and especially, some in such condition that eyen those wishing to use them better have another set of shock absorbers. ,. Albeit, S1. Joe is already growing - the south side targeted right now as a future traffic problem. How do we get in and out, especi~lly with St. Cloud involved, without over extending Minnesota St. and County Road 75 (CR 75)? And without destroying our beautiful natural environment? THE SOLUTION: Utilize, and improve, already:EXISTING ROADS. Which ones? Look at your map - in a west to east direction from the center of St. Joe to S1. Cloud - here are the ones I'll refer to: College Ave., County Road 121 (CR 121). County Road 138 (CR 138), 86th Ave., Bel Clare Dr., County Road 23 (CR 23), and finally, County Road 137 (CR 137). As the southern portions of St. Joe get developed, Make sure the developers give good access to CR 121 & CR 138. This takes Minnesota 81. out ofthe picture. Forthose wishing to utilize CR 75 eastbound, give them alight near Fleet Farm so they can take their left and on up to CR 75. Want to take CR 23 eastbound instead? Take 86th Ave. right after you join CR 138, cross the railroad tracks onto Bel Clare Dr. and a left onto CR 23. These are the roads that need great improvement (as does the rail crossing), but THEY EXIST. A light would be needed at CR 23, especially for the next step. Want to avoid CR 75 & CR 23 completely'? Continue across CR23 and take a left onto CR 137 and into Waite' Park. This avoids the Crossroads area all together. CR 137 goes past Quarry Park, becomes listed as 7th St. 8 in Waite Park, and finally as 22nd St. S in S1. Cloud. This will become our connection to St. Cloudis east-west alternative when they finally decide upon which street to utilize on their south side. And donlt forget, the interchange of CR 23 with Interstate 94 will become the interchange' of choice for:all these new south-side residents, not Minnesota St. GOALS ACHIEVED: (see cover page) All 5,' particularly 3, 4, & 5. The wonderful n~tura1 beauty of our area will be preserved and continued to be enjoyed. We will have growth without rape of the land ~ and all it will take will be productive interaction with city, township, county & state people. NORTH, NORTHWEST & WEST of St. Joseph: the main reason for all problems in this traffic area is the lack of a full interchange between County Road 75 (CR 75) and Interstate 94 (1-94). . Let's look at traffi_~ on County Road 2 (CR 2). Whether the traffic is southbound or northbound, it has to use the full interchange ofCR 2 & 1-94 to Continue. This situation puts it right into St. Joe and onto one portion or another of Minnesota St. Compound that situation with traffic westbound on CR 75 wanting to continue south (east) on 1-94. More traffic on Minnesota S1. Add to that the southbound traffic of CR 2 wishing to continue south (east) onto 1-94. :. More traffic dumped onto Minnesota St. Why didn't the CR 2 traffic use a route through St. Cloud to get to 1-94? Like. they need more traffic - especially around Crossroads. THE SOLUTION: Reconstruct the 1-94 & CR 75 interchange to be a.full one (the ability to travel any direction). Then close CR 2 as we know it now going through St. Joe. Reroute CR 2 over to County Route 3 (CR 3) and use the 1-94/CR75 interchange. . Or even better, find a way to get CR 2 over to the new interchange without even getting on CR 3 or CR 75. GOALS ACHlEVED: Numbers 1,.2 (big time), and 5 to a small degree. (See cover page) . .
