order by Mayor Pro Tem/President Pro Tem Kay Lasman at 7:34 p.m.
ROLL CALL
Mayor Pro Tem/President Pro Tem Kay Lasman and Councilmembers/Commissioners Mary O'Connor,

Mayor/President Willson was absent and excused.
BROOKLYN CENTER ALTERNATIVE SCHOOL REZONING ISSUES
This discussion was a continuation from the Study Session.
City Manager Curt Boganey continued to address the City Council on the matter.
City Attorney Charlie LeFevere explained that the City Council should decide what it would like to allow
on the property and an Ordinance amendment can be made if it chooses to allow the use. He explained the
reasons for excluding a use from a zone such as lack of parks for children, chemicals, noise, and
surrounding adult uses.
There was discussion on whether the Ordinance could be crafted to specifically address this area and this
Alternative Learning Center. Mr. LeFevere explained that synergy for land uses are important for example
an Alternative Learning Center would bring customers to the surrounding retail establishments, therefore it
would compliment the surrounding land uses. He explained that the City Council should determine if an
Alternative Learning Center is appropriate for the area based on the surrounding land uses and the impact of
the uses on each other. He stated if the Ordinance is amended to allow this use, all similar future uses must
also be allowed.
Keith Lester, Superintendent of Brooklyn Center Schools, stated the building is proposed to be 6,600 square
feet. He discussed the purpose of the school and the criteria required by state law of attending students. He
stated the type of school would not fit well in a residential area. He stated the purpose of the Alternative
Learning Center is to assist at-risk students in receiving their diploma.
There was discussion regarding smoking on the Alternative Learning Center property where Brooklyn
Center High School Principal Brian Bass explained that smoking must be done across the street from the
property line and has not been an issue thus far.
06/25/07 -1- DRAFT
It was the majority consensus of the City Council to postpone further discussion on the matter until a full
City Council is present at the next Work Session.
MISCELLANEOUS
There was discussion regarding the growing number of foreclosure homes in the City and the maintenance
of such properties. Mr. Boganey stated the current tools available to the City are limited and additional
information will be brought to the City Council for discussion. He explained that there may be some special
programs the City can use to assist those residents facing foreclosure. He stated staff's principal objective
once the property has been determined as a foreclosure property is to expedite action on the property as soon
as possible.

COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
TO: Curt Boganey, City Manager
FROM: Sharon Knutson, City Clerk
DATE: June 29, 2007
SUBJECT: An Ordinance Amending Chapter 3, Secdon 3.11, and Cha.pter 4, Section 4.04, of
the Brooklyn Center City Charter
Recommendation:
I recornmend that the City Council review and discuss the title for Section 4.04. Once the City
Council considers the language for the title of Section 4.04 and unanimously agrees on the
language, the City Council should open the Public Hearing, take public input from citizens, close
the Public Hearing, and adopt An Ordinance Amending Chapter 3, Section 3.11, and Chapter 4,
Section 4.04, of the Brookiyn Center City Charter. If adopted, the Ordinance becomes effective
October 17, 2007, 90 days after its legal publication.
Background:
At its June 11, 2007, meetixig, the City Council reviewed and discussed An Ordinance Amending
Chapter 3, Section 3.11, and Chapter 4, Section 4.04, of the Brooklyn Center City Charter.
There was discussion regarding the title language in Section 4.04. The ordinance amendment
tAat was included in the June 11, 2007, Council agenda packet did not correctly indicate the title
langue in Section 4.04, and it was confusing as it was printed as FILE BY AFFIDAVIT FEE OR
BY PETITION (without the strikethrough and underline). The Charter Commission
recommended the following: FILE BY "��'rT'"�'TT FEE OR BY PETITION (strikethrough is
deleted langua.ge; underline is new language). Following discussion, the City Council
unanimously voted to approve first reading and set second reading and Public Hearing for July 9,
2007, with the amendment to Section 4.04 title language to read: FILE BY AFFIDAVIT (the
current language in the City Charter).
The Charter Commission met on June 27, 2007, and discussed the title for Section 4.04.
Attached is a copy of the draft Charter Commission minutes &om that meeting. The Charter
Commission voted unanimously to suggest that the City Council hold the second reading of the
ordinance and modify the title language in Section 4.04 to read FILE BY FEE OR PETITION.
Included is a copy of my May 9th and May 30th memorandums, the April 23, 2007, Joint City
CounciUCharter Commission minutes, the Apri125, 2007, Charter Commission minutes, the
June 27, 2007, draft Charter Commission minutes, and the Ordinance Amendment as it was
amended at the June 11, 2007, City Council meeting and as it was published.
Memo to Curt Boganey Page 2 June 29, 2007
Budget Issues:
The revenue generated from the increased filing fee is expected to be insignificant. With the
addition of the option of filing by petition, there will be greater staff time involved in the pmcess
of verifying that the petition submitted by the candida.te includes 50 registered voters. It is
impossible to know haw many candidates will file by petition. There is no reason to believe that
this added task will be excessively burdensome.

Old Business
Pronosed Charter Chan�es: Chairman Leino handed out correspondence from the City
Clerk regarding an error that was made in the recent city council packet regazding Section
4.04 FILE BY "��TT`"�'TT FEE OR BY PETITION. Unfortunately, when the item was
prepared for City Council consideration, the strike through and underlining was not
included, so that the title of 4.04 read "FILE BY AFFIDAVIT FEE OR BY PETITION".
Not knowing what was the Charter Commission's intent, the City Council approved the
first reading as "FILE BY AFFIDAVIT". Both the Mayor and City Manager explained
to the Charter Commission that the City Council would be oka.y with either title of the
4.04 section; "FILE BY AFFIDAVIT" or "FILE BY FEE OR PETITION". After a brief
discussion, a motion to suggest that the City Council have the second reading of the
ordinance to modify the Charter Section 4.04 title, be changed to "FILE BY FEE OR
PETITION" was made by Theis, seconded by Lund. Passed unanimously 8- 0.
City Manager Boganey indicated that the City would be bringing a request to have the
Charter be modified to allow for administrative fines. Currently a11 of the citations and
fines ha.ve to go through Hennepin County court system and it is very expensive process
for the amount of fines collected.

COUNCIL TTEM MEMORANDUM
TO: Curt Boganey, City Manager
FROM: Sharon Knutson, City Clerk Q�,,�,�.
DATE: May 30, 2007
SUBJECT: An Ordinance Amending Chapter 3, Section 3.11, and Chapter 4, Section 4.04, of
the Brooklyn Center City Charter
Recommendation:
I recommend that the City Council approve first reading of An Ordinance Amending Chapter 3,
Section 3.11, and Chapter 4, Section 4.04, of the Brooklyn Center City Charter and set second
reading and Public Hearing for July 9, 2007.
Background:
At its May 14, 2007, meeting, the City Council reviewed and considered the Charter
Commission recommendaxion on two amendments to the Brooklyn Center Charter. The City
Council directed staff to draft an ordinance that would amend Sections 3.11 and 4.44 of the
Brooklyn Center City Charter, as recommended by the Charter Commission.
With regard to candidates filing by petition, there is the potential for all or none of the candidates
to file by petition. Since 1996, the number of candidates filing is as follows:
1996 5
1998 6
2000 3
2002 9
2004 5
2006 8
It is estimated that 45 minutes would be the amount of sta.ff time spent verifying 50 registered
voters.
Budget Issues:
The revenue generated from the increased filing fee is expected to be insignificant. With the
addition of the option of filing by petition, there will be greater staff time involved in the process
of verifying that the petition submitted by the candidate includes 50 registered voters. It is
impossible to know how many candidates will file by petition. There is no reason to believe that
this added task will be excessively burdensome.

Nelson, Mary Nierengarten, Eileen Oslund, and Richard Phillips.
DISCUSSION OF CHARTER COMIVIISSION RECOMMENDATIONS
There was discussion on the proposed Charter changes to Sections 3.11 and 4.04. It was
indicated that the Charter Commission felt the changes to Section 4.04 were necessary to help
cover administrative costs associated with candidate filing. It was also indicated that the change
will modernize the section along with requiring potential candidates to apply more fore-thought
to their candidacy. It was explained that "Minnesota" should be removed from "Minnesota
Affidavit of Candidacy" because the form used is "Affidavit of Candidacy" and a specific form
to Minnesota. does not exist. There was concern expressed tha.t the proposed language would
make charges for copies of Ordinances mandatory rather than discretionary. It was stated tha.t
the City Code of Ordinances is available on the City's website.
There was discussion on the process of Charter amendments in previous years.
Charter Commission Chair Stanley Leino indicated that a recommendation would be forwarded
to the City Council following further discussion on the two sections at the April 25 2007,
Charter Commission meeting.

Planning Commission Information Sheet
Applicarion No. 2407-011
Applicant: City of Brooklyn Center {EDA)
Location: 6300 Eazle Bmwn Drive
Request: Preliminary Plat
The City of Brooklyn Center Economic Development Authority (EDA) is seeking Preliminary
Plat approval to divide the property. at 6300 Earle Brown Drive into two lots to provide separate
lots for two hotels proposed by the Planned Unit Development approved by the City Council on
May 14, 2007 under Planning Commission Application No. 2007-008.
The property in question is zoned PUD/C-lA (Planned Unit Development/Service-Office, no
height limit) and is located on the east side of the west leg of Earle Brown Drive adjacent to the
Earle Brown Heritage Center. It is bounded on the west and north by Earle Brown Drive with a
six story office building and I-94 right-of-way on the opposite side of the street; on the east by
the Eazle Brown Heritage Center which is zoned G2 (Commerce); and on the south by a high
rise office building (City County Federal Credit Union) zoned G1A. The site is also located in
the City's CC-Central Commerce Overlay District and transient lodging, eating establishments
inciuding eating establishments offering live entertainment and recreation and amusement places
aze all uses allowed in this overlay district as well as the C-lA district.
The PUD approved by the City Council on May 14, 2U07 comprehended a two building hotel
complex consisting of an eight story, 175 room Embassy Suites Hotel with a 140 seat restaurant
h hotel to be lacated on
on the nort erly portion of the prop and concept approval for a 75 urut
�Y
the southerly portion of the properCy. The reason for the lot division is so that the pmperty for
the first phase can be conveyed to the developer. The second lot would be conveyed at a later
date when approval of the second phase has been accomplished and building permi#s would be
pursued.
The property under consideration is f.21 acres in azea and is currently described as Lot 1, Block
1, Brooklyn Farm Addition. It is proposed to be divided into Lot 1 and Lot 2, Bmoklyri Farm
Second Addition. The proposed Lot 1, the northerly lot which will contain the Embassy Suites
Hotel, is to be 177,781 sq. ft. or 4.08 acres in azea. The proposed Lot 2, the southerly lot which
will contain the 75 unit hotel, is ta be 92,803 sq. ft. or 2.13 acres in area.
The Director of Public Works/City Engineer is reviewing the proposed plat and his written
comments are attached for the Commission's review. Some existing drainage and utility
easements will need to be vacated and new, expanded easements to reflect the expanded pond
area and.other matters will need to be prnvided. A driveway easement along the south property
line exists to provide access to this site and the City County Federal Credit Unian site and will
6-28-07
Page 1
have to continue. A driveway easement between the proposed northerly parcel and the Earle
Brown Heritage Center does not show on the proposed plat but should be provided to reflect the
shared access between the two sites. An expanded easement over the ponding azea will also be
provided.
It was noted at the time the Planned Unit Development was approved for the proposed
development that there would be a pazking deficiency based on ordinance requirements when the
two hotels were developed. Eighty five parking spaces will be provided on the proposed Lot Z
which will be sufficient for that hotel. One hundred ninety five spaces will be provided on the
proposed Lot 1, which is 45 less than what is required to meet the ordinance requirements for this
parcel: The Earle Brown Heritage Center has surplus parking spaces and it has been agreed that
it will provide an off site pazking agreement for the use of 45 pazking spaees so that the hotel will
be in compliance with ciry ordinances. This agreement should be filed with the title to the
property at the time of the filing of the final plat.
Cross access and parking agreements between the proposed Lots 1 and 2 should be developed
and filed to acknowledge the aspects of the Planned Unit Development which comprehends a
free flowing of traffic and parking throughout the hotel sites. A physical connection between the
hotel on the proposed Lot 1 and buildings within the Earle Brown Heritage Center is also part of
the Planned Unit Development. Proper fire separations and building code considerations will be
complied with where this connection crosses the property line.
A public hearing has been scheduled for this preliminary plat and notices of the Planning
Commission's consideration of this matter has been published in the Brooklyn Center Sun/Post.
RECOMMENDATION

submitted by Michael Kampmeyer of Griffin Companies requesting Special Use Permit
approval. This matter was considered by the Planning Commission at their June 28, 2007

Commission s consideration of this matter and other supporting doc e
Budget Issues: There are no budget issues.
Application Filed on 6-14-07
City Council Action Should Be
Taken By 8-13-07 (60 Days)
Planning Commission Information Sheet
Application No. 2007-012
Applicant: Griffin Companies
Location: 5810 Xences Avenue North
Request: Special Use Permit
The applicant, Michael Kampmeyer on behalf of Crriffin Companies, is seeking a special use
permit to operate an automotive repair facility in a portion of the commercial building addressed
as 5810 Xerxes Avenue North. The property in question is zoned C-2 (Commerce) and is located
at the southeast corner of Xerxes Avenue North and Northway Drive. It is bounded on the north
by Northway Drive with the Centerpointe apartment complex on the opposite side of the street;
on the east and south by the Metropolitan Council Transit Center and Twin City Federal; and on
the west by Xerxes Avenue with vacant land on the opposite side of t13e street. Motor vehicle
repair is listed as a special use in the C-2 district provided it does not abut R-1, R-2 or R-3 zoned
property including abutment at a street line. No such abutment exists in this situation. The site
is also located in the CC-Central Commerce Overlay District which also acknowledges motor
vehicle repair uses as allowable uses.
The applicant's proposal is to conduct a car and light truck repair business in approximately
2,500 sq. ft. of space in the southeast corner of the building. The space is served by an existing
12 ft. by 12 ft. overhead door and the plan is to create three service bays within the building for
the repair facility.
The applicant has provided a site plan and written information regarding the proposed operation.
Hours would be 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to noon on Saturda.y. He
indicates the type of work to be considered light and medium duty repair and includes tune ups,
oil changes, tire rotation, tire rods, axels, gaskets, mufflers and any minor transmission and
engine repair.
They propose to make various improvements and modifications to the tenant space for their
operation that are listed in the wr�tten material. It should be noted that the modifications are
subj ect to the issuance of a building permit, review by the Building Official and compliance with
building codes. A Certificate of Occupancy will be required because of the change of occupancy.
PARKING
Access to the site will be the same as it is now. The plan submitt�d shows the building to be
14,224 sq. ft. which requires 78 parking spaces. Fourteen parking spaces are required. for the
proposed three bay repair facility based on the ordinance requirements for auto repair (three
spaces per service bay, one space for each employee plus a minimum of two spaces for service
6-28-07
Page 1
vehicles) which is equivalent to the square foot parking requirement for the retail space (5.5
pazking spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. gross floor azea). A total of 85 parking spaces are shown on the
plan. The plan calls for the removal of existing island delineation to allow for more parking. We
would recommend that if the islands are removed, they be replaced with new ones at the south
ends of the parking rows.
LANDSCAPING
As part of the special use pernut process, the applicant has provided a landscape anaiysis to
determine if the site complies with the landscape point system used by the Planning Commission
to evaluate landscape plans. This 1.35 acre site is required to have 108 landscape points. There
aze a total of 1601andscape points for the site, a large number of which are in shade trees. The
site seems to be appropriately landscaped and is considered to be acceptable.
SPECIAL USE PERMIT STANDARDS
Auto repair facilities are special uses in the C-2 zoning district and as such must meet the special
use permit standards contained in 5ection 35-220 of the city ordinances (attached). These
standards require that the proposed special use will promote and enhance the general public
welfare and not be detrimental to or endanger the health and safety of the public; not be injurious
to the use and enjoyment of other pmperty in the immediate neighborhood nor substantially
diminish or impair property values; not impede tli�ee normal and orderly development of
surrounding properties; be designed so as to minimize traffic congeskion on the public streets;
and conform with the applicable regulations of the district in which it is located.
Our concerns are primarily with the operation itself and we generally feel that the special use
pernut standards can be met so that this operation can be conducted on the site. City ordinances
require the service/repair work to be conducted wholly within an enclosed building or behind an
opaque fence or wa11 at least 6 ft. high or high enough to screen this activity &om view. The
outdoor parking of vehicles to be serviced is limited to a period of 48 hours. No body work or
painting is to be conducted as part of this operation and the outside storage of parts, equipment,
and material is also prohibited. Trash must be screened from public view. The storage of junk
vehicles will not be tolerated.
Noise associated with the operation could be a problem, a1so. There is not space available on the
site for outside activity and all service and repair must be conducted within the building with the
overhead door closed.
If these matters can be complied with, we believe the standazds for special use permits can be
met. We would recommend conditions of approval aimed at preventing noise and visual
pollution from this site as well as the containment of trash and junk vehicles. There should be
absolutely no outside storage of parts, equipment or trash. The display of inerchandise should be
limited to that which can be accomplished thmugh the Administrative Permit process also.
6-28-07

A public hearing has been scheduled and notices have been sent to surrounding property owners.
RECOMMENDATION
Approval is recommended subject to at least the following conditions:
1. The Special Use Permit is granted for an auto repair facility pmviding light and
medium duty repair operations such as tune ups, oil changes, tire rotation, tire rod,
a�cles, gaskets, mufflers and minor transmission and engine repairs. No other
automotive service/repair work such as body work, painting or collision repair
sha11 be performed on the site. Any change in the use of the operation not
comprehended by this application or permitted under the zoning ordinance will
require approval of an amendment to this Special Use Permit.
2. Building plans for tenant remodeling shall be reviewed and approved by the
Building Official prior to the issuance of building permits and a Certificate of
Occupancy for this operation.
3. There sha11 be no service, repair or maintenance of vehicles out of doors. All

CUUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
TO: Curt Boganey, City Mana.ger
FROM: Scott Bechthold, Chief of Police�
DATE: June 27, 2007
SUBJECT: Auto Theft Prevention Grant
Recommendation:
I recommend that the City Council consider adoption of resolution for acceptance of
$155,611 for the prevention of auto theft activities through a grant from the Department
of Public Safety, Office of Justice Programs. The previous auto theft prevention grant
funding duration was from July 1,�2005 and expires on June 30, 2007. The renewed
grant funding is from July 1, 2007 to June 30, 2009.
Background:
In 2006, there were 233 reported auto thefts. The City of Brooklyn Center has the high�st
overall crime rate per capita at 14,590 (2005) in Hennepin County. Hennepin County
reports an overall crime rate per capita of 11,047 (2045). The 2006 (January —June)
preliminary Uniform Crime Report disclosed an increase in auto thefts of +0.3 percent in
the Midwest Region. This figure validates the ongoing need for auto theft prevention.
We have been able to assess that a large majority of our auto thefts occur in and are
recovered within the confines of Bmoklyn Center. Vehicles recovered outside of the City
limits are sporadic. We are unable to locate one or two particular cities tha.t we would
share a trend or pattern of stolen or recovered vehicles.
We continue to develop the proactive approach to solving the auto theft problem. We are
addressing auto thefts by utilizing crime mapping, analysis of police reports, gathering
and disseminating intelligence, and use of data on known offenders. This type of
intelligence gathering is modeled after the Problem Oriented Policing (POP) method of
crime reduction. The prixnary goal is to implement a component of POP known as the
S.A.R.A model. This component of the POP model Scans, Analyzes, Responds and
r f'1 of issues at hand in this case the
reduction of auto
Assesses the success and/o ai ures
thefts in Brooklyn Center. The primary focus is on known offenders and continued
prevention by educaring residents, visitors, and those employed within the City.
Budget Issues:
The grant funds will cover salary, benefits, a vehicle and equipment needs for the auto
theft prevention officer from July 1, 2007 through June 30, 2Q09. There are no additional
anticipated budget issues for the City to endure as a result of the gra.nt.
Member introduced the following resolution and moved

COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
TO: Curt Boganey, City Manager
FRUM: Todd Blomstrom, Director of Public Works �/9'�
DATE: July 2, 2007
SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing a Professional Services Agreement for Public Buildings
Capita.l Improvement Planning
Recommendation:
Public Works staff recommends that the Brooklyn Center City Council authorize a professional services
agreement with Bonestroo Associates for preparation of a public buildings capital improvement
planning study.
Background:
For several years, the City of Brooklyn Center has managed the long-term maintenance and replacement
of Public Works infrastructure through a capital improvement planning process. This organized approach
to infrastructure management provides several benefits. Major infrastructure maintenance items are
planned and scheduled on a proacrive basis. Costly improvements are prioritized in an effort to stabilize
the variable demand for replacement funding. This process also allows the City to budget for funding to
pay for costly repairs and avoid frequent unanticipated funding challenges.
As Gity deparlments are undergoing the minor reorganization process, Public Works is preparing to begin
taking responsibility for capital planning of public buildings. An organized plan must be developed to
obtain the planning benefits noted above for the long-term rehabilitation of public buildings. During
recent discussions, the following capital replacement responsibilities have been identified for transfer to
the Public Works Department.
Roof Repair Replacement Concrete Sidewalks
HVAC Cooling ADA Cornpliance
HVAC Heating Boiler Exterior Trim
HVAC Ventilation System Exterior Building Surfaces
Plumbing Doors and Windows
Electrical Overhead Doars
Elevators and Lifts Interior Carpet Replacement
Parking Lots/ Ext. Lighting Interior Flooring Repair
Long-term ca.pital improvement planning for public buildings has not been conducted for several years.
In order to develop a structured replacement program, a comprehensive evaluation must be conducted for
the buildings. This evaluation data would form the basis for developing a long-term replacement plan for
the items listed above. This process is labor intensive and requires expertise in several building
disciplines such as roofing design, electrical, mechanical (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) and
plumbing.
Public Buildings CIP Planning Study
City staff recently solicited proposals from architecturaUengineering firms to complete an evaluation of
the public buildings and develop a 15-year Capital Improvement Program for maj or building components.
Staff also discussed this program with staff at the City of Brooklyn Park, who recently completed a
similar planning process for their public buildings. Brooklyn Park staffnoted the fairly limited number of
firms with capability and interest in completed this type of planning study.
The City received one proposal from Bonestroo Associates for this work. Bonestroo Associates is a
multi-disciplined consulting firm that has both architectural and engineering capabilities to complete the
projec� They are prepared to complete the study over the course of the next four to six months upon
receiving authorization to proceed.
Budget Issues:
The professional services fee for completion of the study is $53,450. The Fiscal and Support Services
Department has determined that adequate �unding for the study is available from the Capital
Improvements Fund (40100).
Public Buildings CIP Planning Study
Member introduced the following resolution and moved its
adoption:
RESOLUTION NO.
RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
FOR PUBLIC BUILDINGS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLANNING

public infrastructure; and

managing the rehabilita.tion of public buildings owned by the City of Brooklyn Center; and
WHEREAS, City staff has solicited proposals from qualified consulting firms to
assist in the development of the Capital Improvement Program for public buildings; and
WHEREAS, City staff has negotiated a professional services agreement with
Bonestroo Rosene Anderlik Associates, Inc. to assist with the preparation of said program.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Brookiyn Center, Minnesota that the City Manager is hereby authorized to execute an agreement for

SUBJE�CT. Administrative Fines Charter Amendment
CU�J7NG`�L A+CTY(?N REQUIRED
Tf the City Cs�unci� agrees wiith s�taff's opuuon zecomm�nd that tbis n�at��er be treferr�l to
t�e Charcer Commission far eharter amendment considerati�n,
�ACKGRUUNU
In 2043 th� City .�,ttc�mey prepared the enclosed infocana�an re�ardin� the u�s+e of
administrative fines. According #o the City Attorney, there haue n�t been substantive
c�g,es in case law c�r statut� that would alter his opiz�ian as present�t3 in 200�.
The ai�carney's �pir�io� is t�at if the City wishes t� use (ciYil} a�inistrativ� fines as
means of e�afoanczaag local c�rd'u�ances, a Charter Amendm�at would img�rove t�� City's
abil�ty t� vv�ith.s�#and any le�a1 challenge that might aris�.
Tlie Cit�+ attx�rn+ey al�o pr�vides several additional cc��nfis and sug�esti�ns regarding
the establish�ra�nt �af a civil �nforcement system. W� cancur wi�th �Il c��th�
re�eommend�etions including a neutral aFP� Prcacess, s�tandard� c�r crit�r'ta ta de�id� civi�
v. cz°�mi� actioz�s �d �i�itin� administrative �nfarc�mesat tc> I�c�l �ar�"�nan� m�tt�rs or
matters where �xpress authority has be delegate+d to citi�s.
�4, se+ct�nci�ry benefit �f usau�� administrative fines is fi�anci�l. Curzenily wh�n c�rdiup�c�s
�r+e enforc�d u�ing tt�e criminal courts the City beazs a v�ry sigrufi�ant �st. I��� ma#xec
�s tlirc� the �ntire crimi�nal couxt stem atzd a fuie is aid, �i�n� Cvcu�ty will

�#h� vast majurity Qf the incorne. In those ��s where th� issu�e as s�#1�d c�uE o€
court �nd a vaolator pays costs, these costs are �o# li�+�ly tc� cov�r the fir�l cost of

so a�nany of t�a� "r�n:c�r o��nses" is probably noi t�e b�sx use of�e C�ty's prc�s�cu�o�
