RE: 2021 Final Budget Adoption
It is my pleasure to transmit the proposed 2021 budget for the City of Brooklyn Center.
While the City Manager is tasked with the responsibility of preparing a budget, it cannot be
accomplished without the clear policy direction provided by the City Council with input from the
Financial Commission. It would be impossible to produce this preliminary budget without the
cooperation and collaboration of the Leadership Team: Department Heads, Division Heads and
other Staff Members. Special recognition should be given to the Fiscal Services Department,
Assistant Director Andrew Splinter and Finance Director Mark Ebensteiner for their particular
role in planning and coordinating the budget development process. It is our hope and
expectations that this budget will succeed in its purpose to wisely manage our resources and
implement the policy direction of the City Council for the benefit of the residents, businesses and
visitors to Brooklyn Center.
Budget Overview
The year 2020 has been unlike any other year in recent or long-term history. As this budget is
being prepared we are in the midst of a global pandemic which required the declaration of a State
and Local Emergency in March. Public buildings have been shuttered, programs have been
eliminated, delayed or modified to advance public safety. Meetings are being held remotely and
a vaccine is likely to be months away. Some economists forecast that an economic recovery may
be two to three years away. Many businesses have closed and will not recover. The majority of
office employees continue to work from home. After 25 weeks of the pandemic 819 Brooklyn
Center residents have been infected with the COVID-19 virus and 16 residents have died as a
result. Several City employees have been infected and recovered from the virus. To add insult to
injury the public murder of Mr. George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis Police has sparked
riots, social unrest, protests and a world-wide call for Police and Criminal Justice reform. There
is loud cry for racial justice because of the legacy of racist policies frequently directed at black
and brown people in particular.
In the midst of all of the above the City government of Brooklyn Center has continued to deliver
much needed but sometimes limited services to the community. We have suffered dramatic
revenue declines in lodging tax revenue and we expect that trend to continue well into next year.
The Earle Brown Heritage Center has experienced a dramatic loss of revenue. Staffing and
expenses have been curtailed to accommodate these revenue reductions. BC Liquor has reopened
after being closed to put the necessary safety precautions into effect. While the Liquor operation
is showing signs of recovery Centerbrook Golf Course is experiencing a revenue banner year due
to accommodating weather and the fact that golfing is one of the few relatively safe recreational
outlets available.
While we have had significant revenue losses we are fortunate that property tax revenue
collection is performing better than expected (98% collection rate). In addition, the City expects
to receive significant Federal cost reimbursement for COVID-19 related expenses. ($900,000
estimate) In addition staff has made current year budget reductions which will generate
additional saving. ($500,000)
The net result of these factors is that we anticipate a significant increase in fund balance at year-
end. (Estimate $1.25 million). If used judiciously this improvement in fund balance should help
the City weather some of the anticipated slow growth in lodging tax revenue over the next few
years.
The proposed 2021 budget, in financial terms, sets forth the action plan of the City. The
priorities for staff, infrastructure improvement and service response are reflected in the allocation
of resources in the plan developed in City Council Joint Work Sessions with the Financial
Commission during the months of June through November 2020. The expenditure levels are
focused on maintaining current services and on the achievement of the strategic priorities of
Resident Economic Stability, Targeted Redevelopment, Enhanced Community Image,
Inclusive Community Engagement, Safe Secure Stable Community and Key Transportation
Investments and key outcomes adopted by the City Council.
Accountability-Policing Activities
We live in a time of social unrest and heightened public concern and tension about the history
and the general role of police and particularly communities of color. Given the history of distrust
and strained relationship that exists between significant segments of the community and the
police, it is critical that the Council can demonstrate to the entire public that police in Brooklyn
Center serve with fairness, dignity and respect for all without equivocation.
Beautification and Cleanliness-Community
We will put into effect programs and approaches designed to reduce litter, improve cleanliness
promote beauty throughout the community with an initial focus in commercial neighborhoods.
Economic Stability-Businesses
We will continue and expand upon existing programs to support the growth and development of
local business, particularly small and immigrant owned business.
Economic Stability-Residents
We will continue to promote and support collaborative efforts with education partners,
businesses and other governments to for economic stability and the elimination of economic
racial disparities within our community.
Emergency Response Plan-City Government
The current Pandemic Emergency Response Plan has not been reviewed since it was adopted.
Based on the current pandemic implementation it appears there may be a need to update and or
clarify some requirements. To that end the 2021-22 budget will reflect the following goals:
Engagement-Enterprise Wide
We will assure that our diverse and multi-faceted communities are consistently engaged as
appropriate for the development of all City programs and policies. Engagement will be inclusive
and authentic. It will be understood as essential to the development of quality programs and
equitable policy.
Equitable City Spending-Enterprise Wide
Annually the City government spends tens of millions of public dollars in pursuit of community
goals to meet the needs of those we serve. It has been demonstrated that the multiplier effect is
meaningfully positive when those resources are expended locally. It has also been established
that some businesses are at a decided disadvantage when it comes to competing for significant
government contracts. To achieve the multiplier benefit of local spending and eliminate barriers
to disadvantaged businesses desiring to participate in major city funded projects the 2021-22
budget.
Equitable Operations-Enterprise Wide
We will assure that all residents, customers and employees are treated with dignity and respect.
We will provide knowledge and skill development necessary to meet the needs of residents,
customer and employees in an anti-racist, culturally competent manner. We will foster an
inclusive respectful work environment that values and reflects the diverse communities that we
serve.
Innovation-Enterprise Wide
We will respond to challenges in a way that is most effective by learning and using creative and
innovative approaches. We will equip staff with the necessary tools and development along with
the support needed to try new approaches without fear.
Public Health-Community
Without health and wellness individuals and communities are unable to grow or thrive; therefore
health and wellness is the most important condition within a community.
Transparency-Enterprise wide
We believe transparency is essential to building trust and trust of the government is critical in a
democracy where shared responsibility is necessary. Therefore, we will promote and provide
maximum opportunities to share any and all public information for the benefit of the community
and to inform governance.
Leadership Role-City Council
We will assure that the City Council Budget is sufficiently funded to facilitate the Councils
ability to effective fulfill its duties of policy development, ordinance creation, quasi-judicial
administration and City Manager oversight.
Preservation and Protection-Natural Environment
We have a stewardship responsibility for the natural resources of the community and an
obligation to preserve the environment for productive use by future generations.
Tax Burden Relief
We will remain conscious of the fact that many residents and business of Brooklyn Center
continue to suffer economically resulting from the current pandemic and that currently the
average wealth and income levels of our residents remain low relative to the metropolitan region.
As a result, we will carefully manage the fiscal affairs of the City to keep the cost of government
efficient and cost effective.
The overall General Fund budget will decrease by 0.16% and the overall tax levy increase is
2.22%. The property tax levy increase includes a new debt service levy dedicated for the
repayment of a 2020 bond issue used to finance neighborhood infrastructure reconstruction
improvements. The Median Value Residential Property in the City is $207,000 compared to the
prior year value of $198,000, which is an increase in market value of 4.55%. The Median Value
Residential Property will pay approximately $1,197 in City and Housing and Redevelopment
Authority property taxes in 2021 compared to $1,189 in 2020, which is an increase of $8.
The 2021 Budget incorporates the following significant items:
o A $374,680 use of fund balance to provide a temporary lodging tax bridge in 2021 and
2022.
o A livable wage implementation for City employees directed towards the lowest earners to
bring them closer to the MN Department of Employment and Economic Development’s
identified Hennepin County cost of living wage of $16.16 per hour.
o A 2.75% COLA for employees other than the 3% previously approved COLA for
members of the Public Works I.E.O Union.
o Issuance of $10.33 million of debt to finance capital improvements including the street,
water, sanitary sewer and storm sewer portions of the infrastructure improvement project
for Grandview Area South Street and Utility Improvements. This debt issue provides the
needed funding for the continuation of our street and utilities neighborhood
reconstruction program.
o Additional Capital Improvement Projects include: 53rd Avenue Improvements from Penn
Avenue to Lyndale Avenue, Ryan Lake Area Industrial Park Improvements, Lyndale
Avenue Improvements, Phase Two of the Brooklyn Boulevard Corridor Project from
Bass Lake Road to I-94, 61st and Perry Storm Sewer Improvements, Creek Stabilization
at Shingle Creek Phase 2, and rehabilitation of Well No. 10 and Lift Station No. 8.
o Additional General fund initiatives are as follows:
o We will also work with regional partners and jurisdictions to develop an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) for the TH 252 conversion to a freeway and MnPASS lanes on
TH 252 and I-94. This project was selected for Corridors of Commerce funding in 2018
($163M) for start of construction in 2023. The project may be delayed to 2025.
The Proposed 2021 Levies
On December 7, 2020, the City Council will consider the 2021 budget and property tax levies.
There are three funds that require a tax levy; the General Fund, the Debt Service Fund and the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority Fund. The proposed final levy is as follows:
General Fund - Operations Levy $ 18,402,263
Debt Service - Public Improvement Bond 1,540,648
Total Levy $ 19,942,911
Housing and Redevelopment Authority $ 452,913

Strategic Focus
For the past several years the City Council has remained focused on the achievement of strategic
priorities and each year the budget has been crafted as a policy implementation tool focused on
the achievement of these strategic priorities.
This 2021 business plan focuses on the Council adopted 2018-2021 Strategic Priorities of:
Resident Economic Stability
Targeted Redevelopment
Enhanced Community Image
Inclusive Community Engagement
Safe, Secure, and Stable Community
Key Transportation Investments
During this year’s budgeting process department heads identified key initiatives and values of
their divisions focused on the achievement of strategic priorities, which are included in their
respective narratives. The definitions of the Strategic Priorities and examples of some of these
key initiatives for 2021 are as follows:
Resident Economic Stability
The economic stability of residents is essential to vibrant neighborhoods and to retail, restaurant,
and business growth. We will lead by supporting collaborative efforts of education, business,
and government sectors to improve income opportunities for residents.
Job Pathways/Workforce Development
o Develop partnerships with outside agencies, educational institutions, and
training centers to connect residents with access to job training, skills, and
higher education that will result in improved employment and wage outcomes.
o Work within the City of Brooklyn Center with Human Resources and other
departments to connect residents with pathways to jobs working for the City.
o Support the Brooklynk program by employing and mentoring interns and
providing staff support to the Project Management Team
Entrepreneur/Small Business Support
The desired outcome is to foster entrepreneurship opportunities for residents and those that
desire to start or grow a business in Brooklyn Center, with an emphasis on underserved
entrepreneurs. To achieve this outcome we will:
o Development partnerships with outside agencies and resource centers to connect
existing local and start-up businesses with resources, training, and financing.
o Identify service gaps for local entrepreneurs, develop solutions, and identify
resources, with the goal of reducing local government barriers to business
success.
o Invest in and create a business incubator/public market as part of an initial
development on the Opportunity Site to provide affordable commercial space
for local businesses.
o Identify a use and implement programming for the shell space adjacent to the
municipal liquor store in order to serve local entrepreneur and small business
needs.
o Explore the feasibility and appropriateness of creating additional affordable
commercial space for local businesses as EDA-owned properties redevelop.
o Implement and expand offerings needed by local businesses and entrepreneurs
by providing access to capital (funding), access to technical assistance, and
improved communication and city services.
Job Retention and Expansion
The desired outcome is to increase the number of high-quality jobs in the community. To
achieve this outcome we will:
o Strengthen the City’s relationships with existing businesses by continuing to
develop a Business Expansion and Retention Program to identify existing
businesses’ needs.
o Identify redevelopment opportunities that advance the creation of livable wage
and skilled jobs, while emphasizing and encouraging local hiring practices.
Resident Wealth Creation and Financial Literacy
The desired outcome is to increase resident economic stability through wealth creation and
financial literacy. To achieve this outcome we will:
o Explore opportunities to promote home ownership for existing and future
residents, with an emphasis on serving those with barriers to home ownership.
o Explore partnerships with outside agencies to provide financial literacy classes
to residents.
o Conduct a Housing Policy Implementation Study and develop a Housing
Policy Action Plan, which will examine the City’s housing policies and
ordinances with the goal of expanding tenant protections and preserving
existing affordable housing. We will also examine the City’s policies around
the creation of new, legally-binding, affordable housing units.
o Partner with outside agencies and nonprofits to increase housing stability
through connecting residents to housing assistance programs and access to
resources about tenant rights.
o Increase food security by partnering with local food shelf providers to identify
barriers to health food access and investing in sustainable community-wise
food production and distribution
o Explore Local Hiring/DBE contractor policy to include as part of Business
Subsidy Policy for new development
o Identify program for certifying local businesses as DBEs
o Create a local procurement/vender list for internal local hiring as well as
contracting for new development
Targeted Redevelopment
Redeveloping properties to the highest value and best use will accomplish our goals regarding
housing, job creation, and growth of the City’s tax base. We will appropriately prepare sites and
provide the necessary supporting infrastructure investments to guide redevelopment of publicly-
and privately-owned properties.
Opportunity Site Redevelopment
The desired outcome is an inviting, attractive, walkable and vibrant development that
provides for a mix of housing and commercial types that create a dense mixed-use
downtown.
The initiatives for 2021-2022 include:
o Completing the Opportunity Site Master Plan
o Adopt an Equitable Development Scorecard and implementation process
o Completing an Opportunity Site regulatory framework to implement the
Master Plan
o Completing a housing policy plan to implement the housing goals within the
Master Plan
o Amending TIF District 7 to encompass the entire Opportunity Site area
o Initiating a development within the Opportunity Site area
o Implementing a public market/business incubator within the Opportunity Site
area
Redevelopment of EDA-owned Properties

General Fund Revenue Summary
The 2020 General Fund budgeted revenues total $23,755,527, which is a decrease of $38,462
(0.16%) from 2020. Property tax revenue represents 77 percent of the General Fund budget.
The majority of the revenue change is a result of increases in the general tax levy of $350,000,
and local government aide of $87,809. These increases were offset by budgeted revenue
reductions in Excess tax increments of $169,500 and Lodging tax receipts of $680,000
General Fund Expense Summary
The 2021 General Fund budgeted expenditures total $23,755,527, which is a decrease of $38,462
(0.16%) from 2020. The 2021 Budget shows 41 percent of the General Fund expenditures are
for Police ($9,793,962). The remaining significant amounts include 20 percent for General
Government ($4,761,238), 18 percent for Public Works ($4,217,639) and 8 percent for
Community Activities, Recreation and Services ($1,831,698).
The 2021 General Fund Budget incorporates the following significant items:
Personnel. Salaries and benefits represent 70 percent of the General fund expenditure
budget. Personnel includes:
o A two-point seven five percent increase in employee base wages, resulting in an
annual cost of $315,873
o A 4.65 percent increase in the health insurance contribution, increase the annual
cost by $92,576.
o Budgeted vacancy/turnover savings by of $400,000. This amount reflects a
budgeted expenditure reduction for open positions throughout the year.
Taxable Market Value
The City’s taxable market value is estimated at $2,463,269,281, which is an increase of
$161,991,080 (7.0%) from last year. For the 6th consecutive year the taxable market value has
increased.
Tax Capacity
The City levies a flat dollar for taxes which is spread amongst all taxable properties in proportion
to their percentage of the total tax capacity of the City. Residential represents 50.7% of the City’s
tax capacity. The comparison of this chart to last year shows that residential properties will pay
0.5% less of the share of total City property taxes in 2021, with commercial properties paying
about 0.2% more. This continues the trend from the last year where we saw residential pick up a
smaller portion of city property taxes.
The total tax capacity of the City is estimated at $31,347,207 compared to $29,240,979 in 2020,
which is an increase of $2,106,228 (7.2%).
Property Tax Implications
The median value home last year had an estimated market value of $198,000 and a taxable
market value of $178,580. The price of that median value home went from $198,000 to
$207,000 with a taxable market value of $188,390. As a result of the market value increase, the
City (including HRA) property tax will increase by an estimated $8 from $1,189 to $1,197.
The chart shown above provides information on the median value home and City property taxes
paid since 2013. The red bar and amounts on the left axis represent the median value home. In
2013, that value was $119,800 which subsequently decreased to its lowest value in 2014 of
$114,200. The grey shaded area and the amounts on the right axis is the property tax amount
paid on that median value home.
Breakdown of Property Taxes
*Based on a Residential Property in School District #279
City taxes account for 40 percent of property taxes paid by homeowners living in Brooklyn
Center (based on the preliminary 2021 property tax levies). The remainder is comprised of taxes
for the School District of 30 percent and County of 25 percent.
The property tax paid by an individual property owner could be impacted because of several
different reasons including; a change in value of the property, a change in the relative proportion
of the property value to the total property value (shift in distribution of taxable market value to a
different property type), an increase in property taxes requested for operations of the City
General Fund activities and programs, and changes in the property tax needs of the County or
School District. Brooklyn Center has four different school districts all with different levies and
property tax implications.
2020 Cost of General Fund – Median Value Home
The chart shown above provides a cost breakdown of the property taxes paid by the median
value home (excludes Debt Service and Housing & Redevelopment Authority property taxes).
This chart provides an approximate tax dollar cost of the services provided by the City, but it
should be noted that it does not take into consideration any costs outside the General Fund or
reduce the cost for non-property tax funded expenses such as permit fees and charges for
services of the various departments. In 2021, the typical homeowner will pay approximately
$455 for police, $196 for public works, $151 for general government, $85 for community
recreation, $81 for community development activities, and $77 for fire and emergency
preparedness.
2021 Capital Projects & Equipment Replacement
The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a planning document that presents a fifteen-year
overview of scheduled capital projects to address the City’s goals for maintaining public
infrastructure. The CIP includes a long-term financing plan that allows the City to allocate funds
for these projects based on assigned priorities. The City has a total of $38.9 million in
improvements budgeted for 2021, including the Grandview Park Area South Improvements and
Brooklyn Boulevard Corridor Phase 2 from Bass Lake Road to I-94. Funding for these projects
come from a variety of different sources. The complete CIP can be found in the Capital
Improvement Program section in the back of this budget book.
The City compiles a rolling equipment replacement schedule for all City vehicles and equipment.
The Central Garage, reported as an internal service fund, administers the funding, replacement
schedule and disposal of equipment in the fleet. In 2021, the City is scheduled to replace
$1,314,000 in vehicles and equipment including street, parks, police, water, and economic
development vehicles. The largest planned purchases include replacement of a public work’s
dump trucks of $188,000. The detailed listing of equipment scheduled for replacement in 2021
and 2022 is included in the Internal Service Fund section of this budget book.
Enterprise Funds
Enterprise Funds are those programs provided by the City which generate their own revenues for
operation and capital maintenance. The City operates the following three Enterprise Funds:
Brooklyn Center Liquor
The City operates two municipal retail liquor stores to provide for the controlled sale and
distribution of alcoholic beverages in the community. Profits from the operations are used to
fund projects benefitting the community and avoiding the necessity of larger property tax
levies for such projects. Since 2009, the Liquor Fund has transferred $1,654,781 to the Capital
Improvements Fund for building, park and trail projects throughout the community.
Earle Brown Heritage Center
The Earle Brown Heritage Center (EBHC) is comprised of the Convention Center with
Administrative Services, Catering Services and Commercial Office Rentals. These Divisions
provide for the provision of maintenance, conference services, custodial functions,
development, preparing, equipment servicing, and serving of food and beverage for events at
Earle Brown Heritage Center.
The EBHC has a management agreement with Flik International to provide food and beverage
services for its facilities. The EBHC is also responsible for the maintenance of buildings and
grounds of the commercial office spaces for two tenants.
Public Utility Funds
The Public Utility Funds track revenues and expenditures for fee based public utility services
provided by the City. These funds operate on their own ability to generate revenues and receive
no property tax support. Each year the City Council reviews the operations of these funds and
sets rates based on the needs for operations, capital spending and debt service payments. The
City operates the following five Public Utility Funds:
Water Fund
The City has approximately 121 miles of water main, over 1,300 water valves and 1,000 fire
hydrants providing service to over 7,000 single-family residential connections and
approximately 1,600 apartment/commercial/industrial customers.
The budget includes a rate increase for the Water Utility which consists of base and
consumption charges. The City currently has a quarterly base charge of $16.61 per residential
and commercial irrigation meter. In addition to this base charge, the City charges a
consumption charge of $2.77 per 1,000 gallons (up to 30,000 gallons per quarter). The
proposed 2021 rates will increase to $17.44 per residential meter and $2.91 per 1,000 gallons,
which is an increase of $0.83 per quarter in base charges and $0.14 in the consumption
charge per 1,000 gallons.
Multi-family, commercial and industrial properties currently pay a quarterly base charge
depending on the size of the meter and a consumption rate of $3.66 per 1,000 gallons. The
amount billed at any particular property depends on the size of the meter connection and the
amount of water consumed. The water charge for the quarterly utility bill for a household
using 18,000 gallons of water (considered the typical residential user) for 2021 will be $3.84
per quarter.
Sanitary Sewer Fund
The City provides for the collection and conveyance of wastewater through a system of mains
and lift stations. Sewage is treated by the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services,
whose contracted services account for approximately 75 percent of the fund’s operating
expenditures.
The City currently charges a quarterly base charge of $89.14, which is proposed to increase
to $93.59 in 2021. Rates are predominantly driven by the replacement cost of sanitary sewer
infrastructure related to the neighborhood reconstruction projects and changes to the rates the
Metropolitan Council charges the City.
Storm Sewer Fund
The City provides for the collection and management of storm water throughout the City in
compliance with State and Federal regulatory requirements. The Storm Drainage Utility
operates and maintains approximately 84 miles of storm sewers and nearly 100 storm water
management ponds or treatment devices.
The City currently charges a residential customer $15.52 per quarter, which is proposed to
increase to $15.98 in 2021 (an increase of $0.46 per quarter).
Rate Comparison (Water/Sewer/Storm Sewer)
The City annually compares its utility rates to nine other cities that are considered to be
similar to Brooklyn Center. Not all of the comparison cities operate a recycling or a street
light utility, however eight of the comparison cities provide water, sewer and storm sewer
utilities (White Bear Lake does not provide a storm water utility). The rates shown in the
following table are for the comparison cities are their 2020 rates. At the time this chart was
compiled their 2021 rates were unknown. The rates were used to calculate the typical
residential quarterly bill.
The results of that comparison show Brooklyn Center remains among the lower cost
provider. The City’s 2021 bill for these services of $179.39 compares favorably to average
of $216.51.
*White Bear Lake does not operate a storm water utility
Street Lighting Fund
The City provides electrical service, maintenance, repair and replacement of lights owned by
the City. The City owns approximately 71 ornamental lights, primarily in the Earle Brown
commercial area, 85 ornamental lights on Brooklyn Boulevard, 40 ornamental lights along
Xerxes Avenue, 72 ornamental lights along Bass Lake Rd and 57th Avenue and leases
approximately 915 lights from Xcel Energy. Another 97 lights owned by the City are located
on traffic signal systems.
There will be no changes to the current Street Lighting fees. The current fee for residential is
$6.55 per quarter. The current fees are sufficient to cover costs and meet fund balance targets
for the near-term future.
Recycling Fund
The Hennepin Recycling Group (HRG) is a joint powers organization consisting of the cities
of Brooklyn Center, Crystal and New Hope. The HRG is responsible for managing a
comprehensive recycling and waste education system for the residents of these cities.
Residents pay a Recycling Service fee on their utility bill for curbside recycling, biennial
curbside pick-up of large and bulky items, the use of a yard waste and tree branch drop off
site, and proper waste management and special material education and services.
The City currently charges a quarterly base charge of $11.98, which will remain unchanged
for 2021.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority
The proposed Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) levy for 2021 is $452,913, which is
an increase of $47,844 from 2020. State law authorizes the HRA to establish an operating levy
of up to 0.01813% of the taxable market value within the jurisdiction to carry out the purposes of
the Authority. In Brooklyn Center after forming an HRA, the City established an Economic
Development Authority (EDA) that assumed and expanded the HRA responsibilities into the
areas of economic development. The HRA levy is the primary source of funding for EDA
activities.

2021 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
PROFILE
The 2021-35 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a planning document that presents a fifteen-year overview of
scheduled capital projects to address the City’s goals for maintaining public infrastructure. The CIP includes a
long-term financing plan that allows the City to allocate funds for these projects based on assigned priorities.
The fifteen-year horizon of the CIP provides the City with an opportunity to evaluate project priorities
annually and to adjust the timing, scope and cost of projects as new information becomes available. The
information contained in this plan represents an estimate of improvement costs based on present knowledge
and expected conditions. Changes in community priorities, infrastructure condition and inflation rates require
that adjustments be made on a routine basis.
A capital improvement is defined as a major non-recurring expenditure related to the City’s physical facilities
and grounds. The 2021-2035 CIP makes a concerted effort to distinguish between major maintenance projects
contained in the City’s operating budgets and capital improvement projects financed through the City’s capital
funds and proprietary funds. Typical expenditures include the cost to construct roads, utilities, parks, or
municipal structures.
The CIP is predicated on the goals and policies established by the City Council, including the general
development, redevelopment and maintenance policies that are part of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. A
primary objective of the CIP is to identify projects that further these goals and policies in a manner consistent
with funding opportunities and in coordination with other improvement projects.
CIP Project Types
The CIP proposes capital expenditures totaling approximately $199.7 million over the next 15 years for
improvements to the City’s streets, parks, public utilities and municipal buildings. A brief description of the
four functional areas is provided below.
Public Utilities
The City operates four utility systems, all of which have projects included in the CIP - water, sanitary sewer,
storm drainage and street lighting. A vast majority of the public utility improvements are constructed in
conjunction with street reconstruction projects. The remaining portion of public utilities projects include
improvements to water supply wells, water towers, lift stations, force mains and storm water treatment system.
Street Improvements
Street improvements include reconstruction or resurfacing of neighborhood (local), collector and arterial
streets. Proposed improvements include the installation or reconstruction of curb and gutter along public
roadways. As noted earlier, street improvements are often accompanied by replacement of public utilities.
Park Improvements
Park improvements include the construction of trails, shelters, playground equipment, athletic field lighting
and other facilities that enhance general park appearance and increase park usage by providing recreational
facilities that meet community needs.
2021-2035 Capital Improvement Program Page | 2
Capital Maintenance Building Improvements
Capital maintenance building improvements include short and long term building and facility improvements
identified in the 18-year Capital Maintenance Building Program approved in 2007.
CIP Funding Sources
Capital expenditures by funding source for the fifteen-year period are shown in Table 1 and Figure 1. Major
funding sources are described below.
Public Utility Funds
Customers are billed for services provided by the City’s water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer and street lighting
public utilities. Fees charged to customers are based on operating requirements and capital needs to ensure that
equipment and facilities are replaced to maintain basic utility services. Annually the City Council evaluates the
needs of each public utility system and establishes rates for each system to meet those needs.
Special Assessments
Properties benefiting from street and storm sewer improvements are assessed a portion of the project costs in
accordance with the City’s Special Assessment Policy. Every year the City Council establishes special
assessment rates for projects occurring the following year. Rates are typically adjusted annually to maintain the
relative proportion of special assessments to other funding sources.
Street Reconstruction Fund
The Street Reconstruction Fund provides for the cost of local street improvements along roadways that are not
designated as Municipal State Aid (MSA) routes. The revenue for this fund is generated from franchise fees
charged for the use of public right-of-way by natural gas and electric utility companies. Debt was issued in
2019 to supplement this fund and is expected to again be issued in 2020 and future years to maintain the
current reconstruction plan.
MSA Fund
State-shared gas taxes provide funding for street improvements and related costs for those roadways identified
as MSA streets. The City has 21 miles of roadway identified as MSA streets and is therefore eligible to receive
funding based on this designation. The annual amount available in 2021 is estimated to be $1,455,000 and
provides for maintenance and construction activities within the City’s MSA street system.
Capital Projects Funds
The City Council adopted a Capital Project Funding Policy in January 2014 (amended July 8, 2019), to provide
reoccurring sources of funding for the City’s Capital Projects Funds. The Policy specifically identifies three
main funding sources including: audited year-end General Fund unassigned fund balance above 52 percent of
the next year’s General Fund operating budget; audited year-end Liquor Fund unrestricted cash balance that
exceeds two months of the next year’s operating budget and one year of budgeted capital equipment needs; and
Local Governmental Aid (LGA) received in the amount of $650,000 or half of the amount received by the City
(whichever is greater). Other funding sources in this category include grants, park district funding, watershed
funding, federal and state funding and county funding as determined on a project by project basis. Typically
the City Council has directed these funds towards municipal facilities such as parks, trails, public buildings and
other general purpose needs.

Street and Utility Improvements
Grandview South Area Improvements - 2021
The Grandview South project area extends from 57th
Avenue to 59th Avenue and from Logan Avenue to
Dupont Avenue. The total project length is 15,557-feet.
The neighborhood consists of approximately 183
residential properties (R1), one school property (R1),
two church properties (R1), 14 multi-family properties
(R4 and R5), and three commercial properties (C1 and
C2).
Streets
Logan Avenue, Lilac Drive, 59th Avenue and
Humboldt Avenue are designated as a MSA Route. The MSA Routes were constructed in 1966 and vary
between 30 to 35-feet wide. Logan Avenue and Lilac Drive have concrete curb and gutter. The remaining
streets in the project area were originally constructed between 1964 and 1969. These streets are generally 30-
feet wide with no curb and gutter. The street pavement is deteriorated throughout most of the neighborhood. The
overall pavement condition rating is poor. Proposed street improvements consist of the reconstruction of the
street subgrade, installation of curb and gutter to improve drainage and placement of bituminous street
pavement.
Water main
The existing water main in the project area consists of 6-inch, 8-inch, 10-inch and 16-inch diameter CIP
installed between 1964 and 1969. A 16-inch steel water main runs along Emerson Avenue from 57th Avenue to
59th Avenue and on 59th Avenue from Emerson Avenue to Colfax Avenue. A majority of the existing water
main is believed to have a cement based internal liner. Water records indicate three main breaks have occurred
within the neighborhood and no properties have experienced a frozen water service in past winters. The current
project estimate includes replacement of approximately 50 to 75 percent of the water main within the project
area. The 16-inch steel water main along Emerson Avenue and 59th Avenue will also be replaced.
Sanitary Sewer
The sanitary sewer in the project area consists of 8-inch and 10-inch diameter VCP installed in 1959 and 1960
and 12-inch diameter RCP installed in 1959. The sanitary sewer on Logan Avenue consists of 8-inch VCP
rehabilitated with a CIPP liner in 2005. Approximately 56 percent of the sanitary sewer is subjected to frequent
problems with root intrusion. Root sawing must be performed on an annual basis to maintain the system
conveyance capacity. The condition of the sanitary sewer system within the neighborhood is rated as fair to
poor. The current project estimate includes complete replacement of existing VCP in the roadway and cured-in-
place lining of the sanitary sewer along the easement between 57th Avenue and 58th Avenue.
Storm Sewer
A majority of the storm water runoff from the project area is collected in the existing storm sewer system and
conveyed to the trunk storm sewer line on 59th Avenue and then to the Mississippi River. A portion of the
existing storm sewer system within the project area could be salvaged, although it is anticipated that expansion
of the system and additional conveyance capacity will be needed to minimize local flooding. The current project
cost estimate includes complete replacement of the local drainage system within the neighborhood.
Street Lighting
The existing street light system is overhead power, with wood poles and a cobra head light fixture. The current
cost estimate includes replacing the 10 wood poles with 10 fiberglass poles with a cut-off type LED light fixture
and underground power.

area includes a total of 6,323-feet of local streets. The neighborhood consists of approximately 27
residential properties, one multi-family property and two business properties. We estimate that none of the
properties will receive a special assessment because the most of the properties were previously assessed
with adjacent construction projects.
Streets
53rd Avenue is designated as a MSA Route. 53rd Avenue is also the border between Brooklyn Center and
Minneapolis. Minneapolis is responsible for maintenance of 53rd Avenue from Lyndale Avenue to
Humboldt Avenue and Brooklyn Center is responsible for maintenance from Humboldt Avenue to Penn
Avenue. The existing streets in the project area are 36-feet wide with concrete curb and gutter, constructed
in 1985. The current cost estimate assumes street improvements that consist of approximately 35 percent
curb replacement, 10 percent sidewalk replacement and full depth pavement replacement.
Water Main
The existing water main on 53rd Avenue is 6-inch diameter CIP installed between 1965 and 1969. The
corrosion rate within the project area has not been thoroughly documented at this time. Water records
indicate there have been no main breaks within the project area. The current project estimate includes 50%
hydrant and gate valve replacements and casting replacement. The project cost estimate also includes an
emergency connection with Minneapolis if formal inter-connection arrangements can be established for this
connection. Brooklyn Center staff will need to contact Minneapolis Water Utilities to discuss this potential
emergency connection.
Sanitary Sewer
The sanitary sewer on 53rd Avenue consists of 8-inch and 9-inch diameter VCP installed between 1952 and
1959. Approximately 52 percent of the sanitary sewer is subject to frequent problems with root intrusion.
Root sawing must be performed on an annual basis to maintain the system conveyance capacity. The
condition of the sanitary sewer system within the neighborhood is rated as fair. The current project cost
estimate includes complete sanitary sewer replacement as necessary.
Storm Sewer
The majority of the storm sewer runoff in the project area drains to the trunk storm sewer line on 55th
Avenue and is conveyed to the Mississippi River. The storm sewer on 53rd Avenue consists of 12-inch
diameter to 15-inch diameter RCP installed between 1952 and 1979. The current project cost estimate
includes replacing storm structure castings and isolated portions of lateral storm sewer as necessary.

1958. The water main on 47th Avenue consists of 6-inch CIP installed in 1960. Water records indicate no
main breaks have occurred within the neighborhood. The current project estimate assumes complete
replacement of the water main in the project area. The cost estimate also includes the cost of potentially
jacking new water main under the railroad tracks from Dusharme Drive to 49th Avenue which will be
further evaluated during final design.
Sanitary Sewer
The sanitary sewer in the project area consists of 8-inch diameter VCP installed in 1960. Approximately 50
percent of the sanitary sewer is subjected to frequent problems with root intrusion. Root sawing must be
performed on an annual basis to maintain the system conveyance capacity. The condition of the sanitary
sewer system within the neighborhood is rated as fair to poor. Complete replacement of all sanitary sewer
pipes and access structures are proposed as part of the project.
Storm Sewer
All of the storm water runoff from the project area is collected in the existing storm sewer system and
conveyed to Ryan Lake. The current project cost estimate assumes reconstruction of all the existing storm
sewer system. The cost estimate also includes installation of a small storm water management pond at the
intersection of 48th Avenue and Dusharme Drive within City owned property adjacent to Ryan Lake. The
potential pond will be further evaluated during final design.

Humboldt Avenue (County Road 57) Reconstruction (53rd Ave to 57th Ave) - 2024
The Humboldt Avenue project area extends from 53rd Avenue to 57th Avenue.
The total project length is approximately 2,660 linear feet. The neighborhood
consists of approximately 52 residential properties.
Streets
This segment of roadway is a Hennepin County Roadway. Humboldt Avenue
was originally constructed between 1966 and 1969. Existing streets are
generally 36-feet wide with no curb and gutter. The street pavement is
deteriorated due to the age of the pavement and inadequate drainage. It is
anticipated that the street improvements will consist of the reconstruction of the
street subgrade, installation of curb and gutter to improve drainage, placement of
bituminous street pavement and sidewalk replacement. This project is included
in the City’s CIP due to a potential cost sharing agreement for the street and
drainage improvements and funding for water main, sanitary sewer and street
lighting improvements as described below.
Water main
The existing water main in the Humboldt Avenue project area consists of 6-
inch diameter CIP installed in 1966. A condition survey must be conducted
for the existing water system in the project area to determine the extent of
corrosion. The water main is in fair condition based on current maintenance
records. The current project cost estimate assumes replacing approximately 75 percent of the water main.
Sanitary Sewer
The existing sanitary sewer consists of 8-inch diameter VCP lateral sewers. These sewers were originally
installed in 1952. Approximately 64 percent of the sanitary sewer is subject to frequent problems with root
intrusion. Root sawing must be performed on an annual basis to maintain the system conveyance capacity.
The current project cost estimate includes replacement of approximately 100 percent of the sanitary sewer.
Storm Sewer
The storm sewer on Humboldt Avenue consists of 18-inch diameter corrugated metal pipe that drains to a
trunk line along 55th Avenue. This storm sewer was installed in 1952. The current project cost estimate
includes replacing 100 percent of the storm sewer. The cost estimate assumes that Brooklyn Center may
contribute to a portion of the storm drainage cost for the project.
Street Lighting
The existing street light system is overhead power, with wood poles and a cobra head light fixture. The
current cost estimate includes replacing the three wood poles with three fiberglass poles with a cut-off type
LED light fixture and underground power.
